My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 927 As Expected Of A Crime Lord

After Ning Ran was done with her makeup, she noticed that Qiao Zhan and Ruan Anxi had dozed off in their respective cars. At the same time, their subordinates were glaring at each other warily.

Qiao Zhan hadn't planned on sleeping, but when he saw Ruan Anxi snoozing, he decided to close his eyes for a while to demonstrate his contempt for the latter.

Little did he expect to actually fall asleep. Drowsiness was indeed a contagious thing.

“D*mn it, how can you fall asleep with the villain right in front of you? Where's your sense of danger?”

When Ning Ran gave the muscular Qiao Zhan a nudge, she felt that his muscles were so hard that they didn't seem real to her.

He's not very bright despite his physical prowess. Why does he have to train himself to this extent? Just to scare his enemies?

When Qiao Zhan opened his eyes to be greeted by the sight of Ning Ran, embarrassment descended upon him. “I wasn't sleeping, Madam...”

With a wave of her hand, Ning Ran reassured him, “Don't worry about it. Let's go home now.”

Nevertheless, Ruan Anxi quickly alighted from his car upon Ning Ran's return. “Ran, didn't we agree for me to send you home?”

Ning Ran flashed a smile at him. “That's not necessary. I'll see you in the evening.”

Staring at Ruan Anxi, Qiao Zhan thrust his chin into the air. “Madam is not interested in riding in your car.”

Ruan Anxi's persistence showed no sign of diminishing. “Ran, I'll leave after sending you home. I'll definitely not be in your way.”

“There's really no need to. My children are at home, and it might disturb them to see me come back in a stranger's car,” Ning Ran explained.

After a brief silence, Ruan Anxi relented. “All right then, I'll see you in the evening.”

With that, he drove off together with his subordinates.

“That's it? Since when did he become so compliant?” Qiao Zhan couldn't believe his eyes.

“Let's just go,” Ning Ran ordered as she got into the car.
