My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 849 Unusual Heartbeat

After her discussion with Nan Xing, Ning Ran returned to the company for a meeting with her team.

When it was time to fetch the children after school, Ning Ran informed Wang Xiaoou before she left.

In the parking lot, Ning Ran had just started the car engine when someone sneaked into the car before she could lock the doors.

The man was wearing a hat and sunglasses, and he exuded an eerie aura.

“Ran, how are you?” The soft voice of Ruan Anxi made one think of the hissing sounds of a venomous snake.

“Are you stalking me again? What exactly do you want?”

“Don't worry. I won't hurt you. I will be going away for a while, so I have come to bid you farewell,” replied Ruan Anxi with a grin.

“Haven't you caused me enough trouble? Can't you just let me off?” snapped Ning Ran.

“No, I can't.” Ruan Anxi's answer was resolute.

“I'm going to call the police right now!” With that, Ning Ran took out her phone.

“Don't be like this. It isn't good for you. Aren't you going to fetch your children now? You shouldn't scare them,” said Ruan Anxi eerily.

At the mention of her children, Ning Ran dared not make a move anymore.

She was well aware of the kind of person Ruan Anxi was.

He was a man who lived in the darkness and had no qualms about not coming into contact with sunlight again in his lifetime. Yet, there was nothing he could not do in the darkness.

Once he had his eyes on a person, it would be very difficult to get rid of him.

“Ruan Anxi, if you dare touch my children, I will have it out with you. Don't think that I'm completely helpless. I won't hesitate to perish together with you,” Ning Ran uttered ruthlessly.

To that, Ruan Anxi waved his hand. “There will be no need to do that. I won't hurt your children. Besides, I like them very much. Don't you worry—I won't frighten them by appearing in front of them.”

“Then get out of my car. I don't want you here,” said Ning Ran curtly.

“Hey, didn't I say I came here to say goodbye to you? Why must you treat me this way?” Ruan Anxi sighed before continuing, “Even if we aren't friends, we are still acquaintances.”

Ning Ran did not say anything in response because she noticed Wang Xiaoou was walking toward her car. For a moment, Ning Ran began to panic.

If Wang Xiaoou sees Ruan Anxi in my car, will she ask who he is? If she does, how am I going to answer her?

“Do you know her? I don't want anyone to see me. Go,” whispered Ruan Anxi.

Ning Ran stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped forward.

When they raced past Wang Xiaoou, the car was traveling at such high speed that she could not see who was in the vehicle.

Wang Xiaoou found that strange. Is Ning Ran unhappy with me? Why did she drive past me and not stop to say bye to me? Did I do anything to upset her?

After driving for about a few hundred meters, Ning Ran received a call from Wang Xiaoou.

Ning Ran was contemplating whether to answer her call. If I do, how will I explain my behavior earlier to her?

“Ou, I saw you just now, but something else was on my mind. That's why I left so abruptly.” Ning Ran found a very far-fetched excuse.

“Oh, it's fine. I thought something had happened to you. I'm glad to hear that you are all right.”

“I'm all right. Everything is fine. Ou, thank you for your concern.”

After Ning Ran was done with the phone call, she turned around to see Ruan Anxi staring at her with those creepy vicious eyes of his.

“Can you please stop looking at me like that?”

“You are very nice to look at,” said Ruan Anxi with a grin.

“Are you the one responsible for Rong Jilin's injuries?”

“Yes.”

“Why did you do it? That was way too cruel!” Ning Ran yelled.

Ruan Anxi chuckled softly. “Why did I do it? Don't you know why? Because he bullied you. I had no choice but to get back at him.”

“I don't need your help! We aren't friends. We aren't related in any way!”

“Well, I'm not asking you to remember what I have done for you. I will take full responsibility for all the things that I have done. You won't be implicated.” Ruan Anxi was extremely calm when he was talking. “As for my cruel methods, that's just how I am. You should already know that.”

“But, right now, the Rong family thinks that Nan Chen was the one who ordered someone to do it. Aren't you making him your scapegoat?”

“Am I? Haha.” Ruan Anxi laughed arrogantly. “That's good, then. I managed to kill two birds with one stone. Is Nan Chen in a lot of trouble? That's great!”

“You're shameless. You are nothing but a devil!” screamed Ning Ran in anger.

“I am and always have been. Ran, don't be angry. Mr. Rong deserved it. He should consider himself lucky that I left him alive. As for his leg, he will still be able to walk normally as long as the surgery is done in time. He isn't worth getting angry over!”

“Get out of my car now! The school is just ahead. I don't want my children to see you!”

“Fine. Let's say goodbye for now. Once I'm done with my things, I'll come and see you—”

Ning Ran cut him off, “No need. I don't ever want to see you again!”

“But, I want to see you. If there's anything that Nan Chen can't resolve, just give me a call. I'm going to miss you,” whispered Ruan Anxi in a gentle tone.

Ning Ran was speechless. When she stopped the car, Ruan Anxi took his time getting out.

Abruptly, a black SUV drove up, and he got into it. The vehicle then sped away.

Ning Ran leaned back in her seat and let out a long sigh of relief.
