My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 725 A Father Who Does Not Keep His Word

Over at Mountview Inn in Livingsfill, Erbao followed Nan Chen around from the moment she woke up. No matter where he went, she would trail behind him like a little shadow. The little girl was worried her father would go back and wanted to keep an eye on him.

In truth, Nan Chen had planned to fly back to Flower City that afternoon. Although he could not bear seeing Erbao like that, he also had an important event he needed to attend personally. Hence, he felt caught between a rock and a hard place.

Even after having lunch and the time came for Erbao to have her afternoon nap, she refused to sleep.

She sat there stubbornly, so drowsy that her gaze was unfocused. Although she nearly dozed off several times on the couch, she forced herself to get up each time. Seeing that, Ning Ran felt her heart ache.

“Go to sleep. Daddy won’t leave while you’re asleep, so you don’t have to worry. I promise he’ll still be here when you wake up,” she coaxed gently. Erbao shook her head as she tried hard to open her eyes wide. “I’m not sleepy, Mommy. Not even a little bit!”

As a matter of fact, Nan Chen was preparing to wait until Erbao fell asleep before departing.

The situation in Flower City had been rather complicated recently, and there were many things he had to handle. Hence, he did not have the energy to spend time with the children every day.

On top of that, filming for Ning Ran’s movie had yet to wrap up, which meant he could only wait until filming ended before bringing them back home.

If the children return with me while Ning Ran remains in Livingsfill, our security team would have to split into a few smaller groups to protect the twins and Ning Ran. Doing so would only make Qiao Zhan’s subordinates more on edge and exhausted. Besides, Ning Ran will miss the kids if they’re not with her. She’d be in no mood to film, and Dabao and Erbao would be miserable. Clearly, that wouldn’t be a good arrangement either.

Although the children had a sense of dependency on Nan Chen, it was nowhere near how much they depended on Ning Ran. After all, she had been the one by their side as they grew up.

Nan Chen was also incredibly busy and often worked until late at night. Even if the twins were at Flower City, he would have no time to spend with them.

Thus, after weighing the pros and cons, it made more sense to leave the little ones with Ning Ran in Livingsfill.

However, Nan Chen began to waver as he gazed at the scene before him.

She’s already sleepy but still refuses to go down for her nap. If I leave while she’s asleep, she’ll be so disappointed when she wakes up. Lying to a child is the dumbest thing one can do. A parent who lies will lose their authority and their child’s trust, and it’d be even more impossible to ask that child to be an honest person.
