Chapter 705 You Really Are A Bad Person

Huang Zichao was stumped. He looked tense and embarrassed. If he did not listen to Ding Fei, he would not be able

to protect himself, and the latter would destroy him.

However, he couldn’t bring himself to ruin Ning Ran just to protect himself either. He was not a very noble person,

but he was far from being mean enough to hurt others for his own sake, especially when that person was a woman

he had a crush on.

Ning Ran was getting impatient. “If you’re still not talking, we’re leaving.” “I’m getting tired of listening to his

nonsense. Let’s go.” Nan Xing had already lost his patience.

“Wait. I’m really doing it for your own good. If you participate in the show, it will do you harm.” Huang Zichao

panicked. “What harm?” asked Ning Ran. “I can’t tell you this, but please, believe me. It’s for the best if you don’t

go.”

“I won’t listen if you don’t tell me the reason. I don’t want to pay the liquidated damages.”

“If you don’t go, I’ll pay the liquidated damages for you!” Huang Zichao hurriedly said.

Nan Xing and Ning Ran exchanged glances. Both of them were surprised that Huang Zichao would say that.

Wouldn’t it be better to film the show, promote the new movie and make money together?

“Is it because you don’t want to be in the show with me that you’re actually willing to pay the liquidated damages

for me? Do you think that I’ll drag you down and lower your status as an award-winning actor?” Ning Ran was

somewhat unconvinced.

Huang Zichao sighed and shook his head. “That’s not what I meant. Please, believe me. I really didn’t mean that.”

“Fine. Let’s not dwell on it. Since he’s willing to pay for the liquidated damages, you can just quit the show. It’s not

like you must be in that crap show, anyway,” said Nan Xing.

Ning Ran agreed, “Fine, I won’t go then. If the production team asks for compensation, you’ll give them the

money.”

Huang Zichao was relieved. “Thank you!”

However, Nan Xing stopped Ning Ran in her tracks. “Wait. Something’s not right.”

“What is it?”

“He said he would pay the liquidated damages, but he only made a verbal promise. What if he goes back on his

word? We’ll be tricked then, won’t we? Even though I don’t really care about such a small amount of money since

I’m a member of the Nan family, I still don’t like the feeling of being tricked. Don’t you think so, Ning Ran?”

“You’re right. We can’t be tricked.” Ning Ran nodded in agreement.

“Don’t worry. I won’t go back on my word. If you don’t trust me, I can get someone to transfer the money to you

first. Just give me the account number,” assured Huang Zichao.

Ning Ran and Nan Xing exchanged looks, not expecting Huang Zichao to say that.

The man’s words had put them in a difficult position.

The Nan family was a prominent family, so Nan Xing could not really make Huang Zichao transfer the money to his

bank account.

After all, that was a small amount of money, so it would be a bit embarrassing if he really did so.

If Nan Chen was present, he would not have agreed to do so either.

It would be embarrassing if word got out that Huang Zichao really transferred the money to their bank account.

As for Ning Ran, she did not dare to make a decision. If she turned down Huang Zichao’s offer, and the latter really

broke his promise, she would need to come up with a good explanation as to why she breached her contract.

Nan Xing was reluctant to make a decision either. After all, he was not involved in that matter.

“I will inform my talent agent about this. It’s up to them to make the decision.” In the end, Ning Ran decided to

leave the matter to her team of talent agents.

On the way back to the hotel, Ning Ran could not wrap her mind around what had happened.

Nan Xing could not figure it out either, but he couldn’t be bothered to think about it because his mind was

preoccupied with another matter, namely why he always had conflicts with Lu Jingyuan.

Being engrossed in their own thoughts, they remained silent all the way.

Taking out her phone, Ning Ran called Wang Xiaoou before explaining the whole matter to him clearly and asking

him to make a decision.

Wang Xiaoou also found it strange. “If there is any change in this matter, it should be Huang Zichao’s team who

needs to come and negotiate with us. So why did he come to you personally instead? His talent agents were the

ones handling all communication about the show before this. Why would he approach you personally? He’s not

joking with you, is he?”

“I don’t think so. He looked very serious. I just can’t figure out why he did so,” said Ning Ran.

“Don’t listen to him. This is a work matter. If his talent agents didn’t bring it up to us, we won’t quit the show. We’ll

just go with the flow for now.”

Since Wang Xiaoou said so, Ning Ran went along with it.

It didn’t really matter to her since she was not interested in participating in any talk show, to begin with. After all,

saying some hypocritical and flattering words in front of the camera did not fit her personality.

After ending the phone call with Wang Xiaoou, Ning Ran remained silent.

Feeling bored, Nan Xing tried to make conversation. “Ning Ran, do you think I am a bad person?”

“Yes,” replied Ning Ran.

“Huh?”

Ning Ran chuckled. “You’re just asking me that question to make me praise you, aren’t you?”

“No, I just don’t think I’m a bad person, but why do some people always think I’m bad?”

“By some people, do you mean Lu Jingyuan?”

“Yeah—no, I mean other people. Her opinion doesn’t matter to me.”

“Is that so? I think you look distracted because you have been thinking about the conflict with Lu Jingyuan today,

am I right?”

“I’m not distracted. Even if I am, it’s not because of her. She’s a nobody, so she won’t affect my mood at all,” Nan

Xing quickly denied.

“In terms of appearance, you two are quite a match. Both of you are good-looking, so there is no problem there.

However, Lu Jingyuan has two kids, whose father is unknown. In this case, it’ll be difficult for the two of you to be

together. After all, you are not from an ordinary family, and your status will not allow you to marry any woman.”

Ning Ran was telling the truth as that was what she thought.

“Ning Ran, I think you’re confused. I hate her. So why would you associate me with her?” Nan Xing got anxious.

“Stop denying it. You’re surrounded by so many beautiful women. If you don’t care about a woman, you won’t even

spare a glance at her, let alone discuss with me her bad opinion of you,” Ning Ran said with a smile.

“I didn’t want to discuss her with you. You’re the one who said so. Anyway, Lu Jingyuan really is a terrible person,

otherwise, why would her children have no father?”

Ning Ran did not like to hear those words because her children used to be fatherless as well.

She had experienced Lu Jingyuan’s current situation before.

The only difference was that Ning Ran’s situation was worse than that of Lu Jingyuan’s because the latter had a

good family background and a brother who could help her.

As for Ning Ran, she had no relatives and could only rely on herself.

“Back then, Erbao and Dabao didn’t have a father as well, and other people said the same about me. You people

are all the same, criticizing others without evidence. I wasn’t sure if you were a bad person at first, but now I am!

You really are a bad person!” Ning Ran snapped.

Nan Xing originally wanted to talk about Lu Jingyuan, but unexpectedly, he offended Ning Ran.
