My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 898 Thrilled

When the show started, Lu Yunbing was in charge of playing the ukulele. There was a small drum set in front of Dabao.

In order to carry himself with style, Dabao even wore a pair of sunglasses.

When the music started playing, Lu Yunxue and Erbao began to dance.

They were performing a modern dance that was quick and stylish. Although they were not on point, they were still very pleasant to look at.

Nan Chen, who was looking on, was in shock. Since when does my son know how to play the drums? How come I know nothing about it?

The audience was cheering them on. It was a fantastic performance!

The moment the dance ended, Erbao was so exhausted that she asked to have some water.

Feng Wan could not bear it, so she got the housekeeper to bring some water. “Quick, quick, quick! My great-granddaughter wants to drink some water!”

After Erbao drank her water, she then bowed to the audience and said, “Next up, we have a duet.”

Everyone was bowled over by Erbao's cuteness. There was endless applause and cheering.

This time around, it was a duet between Dabao and Lu Yunbing. They were playing the instruments and singing at the same time. The children's voices were so melodious that they sounded like angels.

The guests were clapping away, and the happy atmosphere returned to the birthday banquet once again.

Only Bai Hua was not happy.

She had initially planned to shame Ning Ran in front of everyone. Yet, Ning Ran managed to turn the tide around and embarrass her instead.

Although Feng Wan ended up defusing the situation, those guests were no fools. They were probably laughing at Bai Hua's cheap present.

As the saying went, bad news traveled fast. By tomorrow, the news of Bai Hua gifting a cheap present would certainly spread throughout the high society of Flower City.

Ever since she returned, she had been working very hard on entering the high society of Flower City. Unfortunately, the incident that night completely ruined her plan.

Her efforts had gone to waste, and she became a laughingstock again.

However, Bai Hua did not reflect on herself. Instead, she blamed everything on Ning Ran and felt that the latter was out to get her.

When she saw Ning Ran smiling so vibrantly, she had the urge to rush up and strangle her to death.

After the four children finished singing, thunderous applause broke out. It was as if the guests were at a concert.

“That's wonderful! I love this gift so much. Let me give them some reward. Well, monetary gift!” Feng Wan was thrilled to bits.

“Mom, this is your birthday banquet. Rightfully, they should perform for you. You don't have to give them anything. Besides, the children have no need for money. Perhaps, their parents are the ones who ask them to get a reward from you?” said Bai Hua cynically.

Her words were extremely inappropriate given the occasion.

After all, Dabao and Erbao were Feng Wan's great-grandchildren. They were also Bai Hua's grandchildren. Rightfully, the children should be closer to her.

However, in order to get back at Ning Ran, Bai Hua actually used the children. That showed how petty she was.

Originally, Feng Wan was very pleased after the performance. Now, the old lady was pissed off when Bai Hua made such unpleasant comments.

She was willing to overlook the fact that Bai Hua had given her a lousy present on her birthday because of the guests.

However, after Bai Hua said those stupid comments, Feng Wan became a little angry.

“Shut up, Bai Hua. It's my business if I wish to give my great-grandchildren monetary gifts. What right do you have to interfere? As an elder, you should watch what you say and set a good example for the younger ones. Yet, you keep talking rubbish. You are making a fool out of yourself.”

Once again, the atmosphere became awkward because of what Feng Wan had said.

Even though that was an internal strife of the Nan family, it was still very embarrassing for everyone.

Even Nan Chen felt humiliated. This is such a happy occasion. Why must Mom spoil the ambiance?

Dabao and Erbao were Nan Chen's children. When Bai Hua implied that their parents asked them to get a reward from Feng Wan, she was talking about him too!

Bai Hua was so keen to humiliate Ning Ran that she forgot that her words would also affect her own son.

“All right, enough. Stop bickering. All of you women are nothing but trouble. Stop talking and making a fool of yourselves! The four of them perform very well, and I like it too. I think it's only right that they are given huge monetary gifts!” Nan Zhengde agreed with his wife.

Ning Ran was aware that Bai Hua was targeting her, but she remained silent since both Nan Zhengde and Feng Wan had spoken.

After all, Bai Hua was Nan Chen's mother. If Ning Ran made things too awkward for her, it was as good as making things difficult for Nan Chen as well.

Hence, Ning Ran went over to Dabao and Erbao. “Actually, I don't mind receiving monetary gifts too. But, I'm too old. That's why I didn't say anything. If Grandma can give me some too, I'll be very happy.”

She made it sound lighthearted and even admitted that she wanted some monetary gifts when in fact, everyone knew that she was just joking.

The guests laughed, and deep in their hearts, they thought highly of Ning Ran.

Everyone could tell that Ning Ran did that to make things less awkward for Bai Hua.

In truth, she was also trying to ease the tension, and it worked.

“Grandma, I haven't given you my present yet, but mine will be the last one. Take a guess, Grandma. What do you think I will give you?”
