Chapter 836

When Ning Ran woke up the next morning, she realized Nan Chen was still sleeping next to her.

He tended to wake up early and finish his morning exercise before she even opened her eyes. It would seem an exception had been made that day.

He's probably still sleeping because he went to bed too late last night. Worried she would disturb his slumber, she tip-toed out of the bedroom.

Just as she arrived at the door, she heard him say, “I want to eat tomato egg sauce noodles for breakfast!”

In response, Ning Ran turned around and saw Nan Chen's eyes were still closed. Is he sleeptalking?

Still, she returned to the bed and double-checked that his eyes were, indeed, closed. Is he still dreaming? Was that him sleeptalking earlier?

“Sir Chen?” she uttered.

No response from him.

She called him again, but he still didn't reply.

Therefore, she said, “Poker Face?”

“You're the poker face! Go and prepare the noodles!” Nan Chen's abrupt roar as he sat up shocked her.

“You're awake? You're not sleeptalking?” As Ning Ran stared at his eye bags, she became certain that he did sleep late last night.

“Obviously! I'm starving right now, so go prepare my noodles!” Then he crashed back down to the bed and resumed his sleep.

She didn't have the nerve to disturb him again and went to prepare the noodles.

Even after the noodles were done, he still hadn't woken up.

Ning Ran didn't want to wake him up, so he slept for another half an hour. By that point, the noodles had clumped together.

Thus, she had to make another bowl of noodles. Upon receiving his noodles, Nan Chen devoured them like a hungry wolf.

“Did you stay up all night doing work?” she asked.

Still eating, he answered, “No, I'm just feeling famished. Go and prepare yourself. Later, I'll ask Qiao Zhan to send you back to the filming set.”

“Didn't you say I can't leave?”

“How are you supposed to advertise the movie if you don't work? The company didn't hire you to sit around and do nothing.”

“I mean, I thought I couldn't continue the filming because we're in a crisis right now.”

“Check the news.”

Ning Ran did as he suggested and saw Nanshi Corporation was featured in a trending topic.

The news mentioned a third-party auditing organization, one of the top three in the world, reporting that Nanshi Corporation's finances and all operations were in order. Additionally, the report disclosed that there was no indication of any money laundering ever taking place.

A graceful oriental woman was the one announcing the report's results in a press conference she held.

Ning Ran didn't need to guess to know the beauty on the screen was Zhiyi.

“They worked overtime on their side until they finished the audit. The relevant department in Flower City also did the same last night to verify the evidence. The head of that department will be announcing that Nanshi Corporation isn't involved in money laundering this morning. Since the crisis is over, you can return to work now,” informed Nan Chen calmly.

Naturally, Ning Ran was overjoyed to hear that. I didn't expect him to solve the problem in a single night. After all, he kicked me out of the room when I asked him what we should do last night. Nanshi Corporation's team really is effective. “Everything's back to normal, then? Do you want me to fry you an egg?”

“If it's not, will you still fry me that egg?”

“Of course! So, Nanshi Corporation won't be affected by this matter anymore?”

“We're still dispelling the rumors, so it's hard to say how many people will believe the announcement. In other words, the negative effects won't disappear immediately. It'll linger for a while. That's why I want you to be mindful of your actions during this period. If any reporters interview you at the filming set later, you need to explain the matter properly.”

That made Ning Ran panic a little. “Didn't you say I shouldn't engage in any interviews? Besides, I don't know how to explain this situation clearly. As you said, no one will believe me.”

“You just need to remember a few key points, which is that you did make the donation, but not that much was cash. The reason you sent cash to the residents living in that area was that many people there don't have bank cards. So, cash was the only way they could get the money.”

“Aren't you just asking me to lie?”

“Nope. Since this morning, staff from relevant charities have been helping you distribute the cash. The individuals living in those poverty areas are delighted to receive five thousand in cash. That news will be uploaded to the internet before you even face the reporters.”
