Celebrity Girl Is My Wife Chapter 231
The teachers walked out of the kindergarten and saw Nan Chen’s electric motorcycle.
Everyone was stunned. Is he trying to be humble?
But isn’t this too humble? If a high-profile person like you rides an electric bike, what about us?
Nan Chen looked at the electric bike and felt troubled.
It did not matter what vehicle he used to reach the kindergarten. However, now that his two kids were with him, he could not fetch them back with the electric bike as it was not safe.
He called Jiang Zhe, but he was still stuck in the traffic, and it would take some time for him to reach.
“Get a car here as soon as possible,” Nan Chen told Qiao Zhan.
“I did, sir. I have asked someone to send us a car,” Qiao Zhan said as he wiped his sweat.
No one dared to leave even though Nan Chen had told them to; all the teachers were standing by the kindergarten entrance waiting patiently.
After half an hour, the driver finally came. They boarded the car and went to a western restaurant for dinner.
Nan Chen purpose chose a restaurant where they could have fine-dining while enjoying the rest of the night.
Luckily, the two kids grew up abroad and were familiar with western cuisine.
Erbao still pestered Nan Chen for ice cream, so he asked the waiter to buy Haagen-Dazs from a nearby shop.
At that moment, Erbao’s phone rang. She took it out from her bag and exclaimed, “Mommy!”
Nan Chen was angry because Ning Ran had wanted to pick up the kids today. However, she had not kept her to her word.
This had caused all the teachers to stay back late, and Nan Chen to cancel an important meeting.
She only calls when everything was settled?
“Third Uncle is hungry. I am eating with him.”
Erbao knew how to twist words. She spoke as if Nan Chen was the only one who was hungry, and that she was forced to keep him company.
“I’m sorry. It was Mommy who was supposed to fetch you. But something came up and I couldn’t make it,” Ning Ran said with a guilty tone.
“It’s okay, Mommy. Why don’t you come now and join us? It’s on me!” Erbao said proudly.
“On you? Where did you get the money from?” Ning Ran teased.
“Third Uncle is treating me, so I will save one portion for you. Isn’t it a treat from me then?”
Erbao chuckled, thinking of herself as smart.
Nan Chen heard what she said on the phone and smiled.
However, he only smiled at Erbao’s wit. He did not want that woman to join them at the restaurant.

“Are you guys almost done?” Ning Ran asked.
“Not yet. We’re waiting for Mommy,” Erbao replied.
“Okay, I’ll come over now.”
Once Nan Chen heard Ning Ran wanting to come over, he started to see red.
How shameless is this woman? She did not keep her promise, yet wants to come and eat?
But Nan Chen could not refuse as it was Erbao who had invited her. He did not want the girl to feel unhappy.
This time, Ning Ran was quick. She arrived at the restaurant in less than ten minutes.
Ning Ran felt under pressure because of Ning Ziqiang.
She stood at the entrance for about two minutes and tried to calm herself down. She forcefully put up a smile to look less anxious, as she did not want her stressed look to ruin the kids’ mood.
When Ning Ran walked towards her kids, her smile reached her eyes.” Hi, my darlings!”
“Mommy!”
Erbao welcomed her with open arms. She jumped off her seat and hugged Ning Ran as if they had not met for a long time.
Ning Ran glanced at Nan Chen, hoping he did not notice. All she saw was an icy-cold expression.
It was not okay. Ning Ran knew she had to please him because she needed his help.
“Thank you for picking up the kids. Today, I…”
Nan Chen raised his hands and stopped Ning Ran. He did not want to listen to her explanations.
Ning Ran felt embarrassed.
Then, she found out that there were no more seats left for her. There were only three chairs, which made her even more embarrassed.
Dabao immediately noticed the situation and stood up. “Mommy, you can sit here,” he said.
But Ning Ran did not sit because she felt wary.
Ning Ziqiang and Luo Yi had been pressuring her earlier. She did not expect to be pressured again at night.
What a hard life.
Ning Ran could barely hold back her tears as she was disappointed.
Coincidentally, Nan Chen took a glance at her. He wanted to see how embarrassed she was but realized that her eyes were filled with loneliness and gloom.
Suddenly, Nan Chen’s heart softened a little.
No matter how incompetent she was, she was still the kids’ mother.
Nan Chen took pity on her and said, “I’ll ask them to get a chair for you.”
The waiter then brought a chair, and Ning Ran sat down. Then, Nan Chen asked her to order her food.
He did not want Ning Ran to eat the leftovers even though she had just arrived.
Ning Ran was preoccupied and did not have an appetite. She only ordered a glass of fresh juice.
“Mommy, order something else. It’s delicious!” Erbao persuaded.
“It’s okay. Mommy isn’t hungry. I’ve eaten before I came,” Ning Ran answered.
She only wanted to make her kids feel relieved, but once again, Nan Chen felt triggered by what she said.
It turns out she went to eat with other men and forgotten to fetch the kids?
Then, what is she doing here after having dinner with other men?
Ning Ran realized Nan Chen’s expression began to darken. She did not know how she had managed to provoke him again.
Was it because she did not want to eat? How would this provoke him?
“I was supposed to pick up the kids today. But something urgent came up, and I was unable to. I’m very sorry,” Ning Ran said to Nan Chen.
But Nan Chen ignored her completely.
Ning Ran felt embarrassed once more. It wasn’t very respectful of him to make it seem as if she were talking to herself.
They were silent for a moment.
“Mommy, why aren’t you guys talking?” Erbao asked, disliking the silence.
Without saying a word, Ning Ran smiled awkwardly and took a sip of her juice.
“Then let me tell you a story. Our teacher read it to the class today,” Erbao said, feeling the atmosphere growing awkward.
Ning Ran and Nan Chen agreed because Erbao liked to perform.
It was about the Red Riding Hood. Even though this story was an ordinary tale told long ago, Erbao made the storytelling fun as she was good at her facial expressions, hand gestures, and intonation.
It was Erbao’s storytelling skills that made it lively.
Even though Ning Ran acknowledged that Erbao looked like Poker Face, Erbao had inherited her talent in storytelling.
