Chapter 768

Thanks to Lu Jingyuan's aggressive drinking, it wasn't long before she got really drunk.

Ning Ran was a little buzzed, but she still remained conscious.

The two drunk and beautiful women sat down in the yard and chatted away.

Alcohol is fair to everyone regardless of their status and appearance. It will get anyone drunk as long as they consume it.

The only difference is in the amount it will take for each individual to get drunk.

Due to the ability of alcohol to reduce the functions of the behavioral inhibitory centers in the brain, those who get drunk will often do what they usually won't. For example, a person who is usually too shy to speak will become a chatterbox.

Not wanting the kids to witness them in their drunken stupor, Nan Chen had the kids play in the study room instead.

Lu Jingyuan looked incredibly hot with a slight blush on her cheeks and a dazed look in her eyes.

“You're such a beauty, Jingyuan! You're the most beautiful woman in the world!” Ning Ran exclaimed.

“You're beautiful too! You're the most beautiful woman in the universe!” Lu Jingyuan replied with a chuckle.

“Why are we complimenting each other? People are going to laugh at us if they hear what we're saying! Let's talk about something else.”

Lu Jingyuan burst out laughing. “Hahaha! It's true, though! You really are a beauty!”

Given how infectious her laughter was, Ning Ran found herself laughing along with her.

The bodyguards exchanged awkward glances when they heard the two women laughing their hearts out.

None of them dared say a word about it.

“By the way, you haven't told me how you got pregnant with Mr. Nan's kids. I remember you saying something about it being unintentional. How did it happen?” Lu Jingyuan asked.


Ning Ran waved at her. “Let's not talk about that. It's not exactly something fun, and I'll end up crying if I bring it up.”

Lu Jingyuan grabbed her hand and said, “Oh, come on! We're best friends, aren't we? You can tell me about it!”

The bodyguards who were stationed nearby pricked their ears when they heard that. How Madam got pregnant with Mr. Nan's kids? This is some top-tier gossip material right here!

As Ning Ran was still alert, she noticed the bodyguards listening in and glared at them. “Hey! Are you guys eavesdropping?”

Despite being extremely curious, the bodyguards had no choice but to distance themselves from her to give her some privacy.

“It really was unintentional. No, I think I have told you about this,” Ning Ran said.

Lu Jingyuan was so drunk that she could barely think straight at that point. “Did you? I don't remember, though.”

Ning Ran wasn't entirely sure if she had told Lu Jingyuan about it either. Given how close the two of them were, Ning Ran figured she must have told her at some point.

“Yes, I did. I have a sister from another mother. Wait, no, I found out later on that we don't even share the same father!”

“You mean like a blood sister?” Lu Jingyuan got even more confused.

As it would be too much of a hassle to explain, Ning Ran said, “I thought we were related by blood, but I found out later on that we weren't. That's all I'm trying to say.”

“Ah, I see... Like the two of us, then?”

“No, we're different. There is only hatred between me and her. You couldn't even call us friends!”

“Why would you say that? What happened between you two?” Lu Jingyuan asked in confusion.

“She wanted to star in a film, so she bribed the director by sleeping with him. However, she forced me to do so in her stead. My mom desperately needed money for her treatment at the time, so I agreed to the arrangement in order to afford my mom's treat—”

Ning Ran was halfway through her explanation when Lu Jingyuan angrily threw her glass on the floor.

That sudden outburst shocked Ning Ran so much that she didn't know how to respond.

“That's horrible! Where is she? I want to go see her right now!” Lu Jingyuan shouted.

“Why would you want to go see her?”

“I want to beat her up!”

That was when Ning Ran recalled something. “Oh, that's right. I remember you can fight. But why were you so easily subdued by the kidnappers?”

“The kids were right next to me. I was afraid that the kidnappers would hurt them, so I didn't dare fight back. Otherwise, I would've wiped the floor with them!”

Being intoxicated gave Lu Jingyuan quite a huge boost in confidence.

“Oh... Well, you don't need to go look for her anymore. I doubt she's even alive.”

“What? What happened? Were you the one who took her life?”

“Hey! You'd better watch what you're saying before you get me in trouble! I would never do something like that! In fact, I don't even know what happened to her!”

Lu Jingyuan frowned in confusion. “How do you know she's not alive, then?”
