Ning Ran only raised her head when she heard Nan Chen’s footsteps.

She immediately stopped laughing and tried her very best to act demure.

“What were you laughing about?” Nan Chen was very curious.

“Nothing.” Ning Ran felt rather embarrassed by her behavior.

I thought the meeting was going to take a long time! Why is he back so soon?

“Nothing? Then why did you laugh so crazily just now?”

“Me? Laughing crazily? You must have heard wrong!” Ning Ran said.

He furrowed his brows. “It was pretty loud. I’m quite sure it was you.”

By now, Ning Ran was rather abashed. “Fine. I laughed a little louder because I thought there was no one around. But more importantly, this video is so funny!”

“Is that so? Can I have a look.”

Ning Ran opened up the clip and passed her phone to Nan Chen.

The video was about a rural couple deciding which chicken to kill for dinner.

Reaching an impasse, they decided that the first person to catch a chicken from the coop would choose the chicken to have for dinner.

Then, both entered the coop simultaneously; and thus, began a wild “goose” chase. Within a short time, the couple was covered in chicken feathers and manure. It was truly a sight!

Nan Chen watched the video twice but still could not figure out what was so funny about it.

“So you were laughing because of this?” Nan Chen looked very doubtful of her words.

“Yes! Look at them! Oh, they look hilarious!”

Nan Chen passed the mobile back to her with a look of disdain.
