My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 850 Boosted Ego

When Nan Chen got over there after rushing, Dabao and Erbao had already recovered from the shock.

Although it was a sudden incident, everything was actually under control.

The bodyguards that Qiao Zhan had arranged around the school were able to effectively protect Ning Ran and the kids' safety at the most critical moment.

Nan Chen caressed Ning Ran's face with both hands. “Did you get hurt? Are you sure you're okay?”

Since Ning Ran rarely experienced someone touching her face like that, she was feeling a little awkward. Moreover, Qiao Zhan was just beside them, so she felt shy.

“I'm fine, really! The motorcycle was struck when it was a distance away from us. It didn't even come in contact with me. Don't worry.”

Ning Ran stretched her arms and legs and leaped up to prove she was unharmed.

Still, Nan Chen was worried. “Let's go to the hospital for a checkup, just to be safe.”

“I'm not injured. There's no need for a checkup. You should go back to your business. You don't have to mind me. I'm all right,” Ning Ran insisted.

“Are you sure you don't need a checkup?” Nan Chen was clearly still worried about her.

“Yes, that really isn't necessary. I'm not hurt, so having a checkup is merely a waste of time and effort.”

Hearing that, Nan Chen nodded. “Are my two Darlings okay? Get someone to provide them with counseling services later. They're probably terrified.”

“Sure, I'll make the arrangements,” Qiao Zhan replied.

“I'm going to the company. Jiang Zhe will cooperate with you to handle the rest of the matters,” Nan Chen said to Qiao Zhan.

Ning Ran's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Nan Chen rushed over because of what happened. And now, he's returning to the company right after checking on us. There must be something urgent at the company too!

While walking out with Nan Chen, Ning Ran asked, “Do you have some urgent matter to attend to? What's wrong?”

Nan Chen paused in his tracks. “Yeah. Something happened, but I'll take care of it. You should attend counseling sessions with the kids. I'll ask Qiao Zhan to contact Qin Lan. She's a professional psychological counselor. She can help the kids to handle the psychological problem caused by this incident.”

Ning Ran responded softly, “But I feel like something serious must have happened to the company. Otherwise, you wouldn't be leaving in such a hurry. If you don't tell me about it, I'll be worried and feel more uneasy.”

Nan Chen remained silent, seemingly hesitating.

Judging from his reaction, Ning Ran was even more convinced it was a major issue.

“Fine, don't talk about it if you don't want to. I'm not asking out of curiosity. I just don't want to keep worrying about it,” Ning Ran explained.

Nan Chen had a grim look on his face. “Something happened at a branch overseas. One of the in-house finance officers confessed to accounting fraud to the police, so I have to organize an investigation to find out what exactly happened.”

“A confession of accounting fraud? Didn't the third-party agency audit the accounts? Why is there accounting fraud?” Ning Ran questioned in shock.

Nan Chen claimed, “For now, I'm not sure whether that branch has indeed committed accounting fraud or someone tampered with the accounts during the assessment without anybody realizing the problem. However, I'm sure this must be a conspiracy. The same group of people, who attacked the company previously, is undoubtedly behind this matter. Hence, I can't allow it to continue to escalate. I'm ending the conversation here. That's pretty much what happened. I shall take my leave now, and I'll be back after I've dealt with it.”

“Go on with your work. Don't worry about us. I'll take good care of the children. Also, I believe you can figure everything out. That finance officer who confessed to the matter must be a spy planted by someone in Nanshi Corporation to stir up trouble at a critical juncture.”

Nan Chen nodded when he heard Ning Ran's words. “I'll get to the bottom of what went wrong. You can rest assured.”

At seven that night, Qin Lan finally completed the psychotherapy with the two kids, and Ning Ran could bring the duo home.

In truth, Ning Ran wanted to seek advice from Qin Lan on some personal issues as she had no idea why she hated it and even felt like puking whenever Nan Chen tried to touch her.

Back then, Nan Chen had also mentioned that it might be a psychological problem and suggested Ning Ran consult Qin Lan, but Ning Ran rejected his offer.

Ning Ran did not exactly know why she declined. One reason might be that she felt the relationship between Qin Lan and Nan Chen was anything but ordinary because the duo was best friends, which made her feel somewhat repulsed by Qin Lan.

And because of such feelings, she didn't want to let Qin Lan know about her secret. Yet, if Qin Lan were to assist Ning Ran, she needed to know the latter's secret. Thus, that matter dragged on until now without a conclusion.

On top of that, Ning Ran was too embarrassed to speak about that issue.

It was not easy to discuss such things with her closest friend, let alone with an unfamiliar doctor.

Despite that, Ning Ran had the urge to inquire Qin Lan about it when she visited the latter's clinic that day.

Ultimately, she still failed to raise the issue and only thanked Qin Lan for helping the children.

“Don't you have any questions to ask me? Actually, it's especially necessary for adults to undergo psychological counseling. Nan Chen also comes here frequently. We've been friends for years,” Qin Lan said with a smile.

Her eyes became crescent-shaped from the smile, and she looked good like that.

Nevertheless, Ning Ran felt slightly displeased because Qin Lan addressed Nan Chen by his name.
