Chapter 181 He May Not Love Me That Much



"Something happened. Sorry." Nangong Baichuan apologized and admitted his mistake.

Nan Yanran looked at him, eyes full of confusion and surprise.

She could hardly see him.

He has these two words again.

Sorry, something happened.

Can't they say anything else besides these two words?

Nan Yanran tried to tone down her tone and asked Nangong Baichuan again.

"Did you know I posted on Weibo?"

Nan Yanran asked Nangong Baichuan as if questioning him.

"I just found out." Nangong Baichuan responded with three faint words.

"What about you?" Nan Yanran asked him again.

"Me what?" Nangong Baichuan asked Nan Yanran, seemingly not understanding what she meant.

"Didn't you promise to retire with me?"

If Nangong Baichuan didn't agree, she wouldn't ask him, but he had already agreed, so why did he go back on his word?

Looking at the expression on Nan Yanran's face, Nangong Baichuan quickly took her hand and explained, "Xiaoran, listen to me."

"I didn't mean to do that. I just have work to do and I have to finish it before I can quit. Can you wait for me? It's my fault. I'm sorry."

Nangong Baichuan explained, his eyes full of seriousness, without a trace of pretense.

"Xiaoran, you know, if I don't do it, we will have to pay the penalty for breach of contract. We already have a child and we can't make any mistakes." Nangong Baichuan knew that Nan Yanran cared about the child, so he moved the child out in order to make her believe in himself.

As expected, after Nan Yanran heard this, she nodded slowly, "Okay, I'll give you one last chance."

"Nangong Baichuan, you'd better not lie to me, otherwise I don't mind fighting to the death."

Nan Yanran's words were both a reminder and a threat.

If he hadn't taken no protective measures, she wouldn't have gotten pregnant. For him, she was willing to quit the entertainment industry. If Nangong Baichuan lied to her, she would never let him go.

"Okay." Nangong Baichuan agreed quickly.

Nan Yanran nodded and said nothing more.

"You haven't eaten yet, I'll cook for you." Nangong Baichuan coaxed Nan Yanran. Without waiting for her to say anything else, he let go of her hand and went into the kitchen.

But when he turned around, no one noticed that he breathed a sigh of relief.

What does this sigh of relief represent?

Is it because he explained it clearly, or because it was not exposed.

Nan Yanran sat on the sofa, seemingly thinking about what she had posted on Weibo yesterday.

She opened her phone and clicked on Weibo.

The Weibo posts are full of messages.

Sister Yanran, why do you want to quit the entertainment industry? I like you so much.

I like you so much, please don’t quit the circle, okay?

Sister Nan, I like you so much!

Someone even tagged Nangong Baichuan in the Weibo post.

@Nangong Baichuan, why did my sister quit the entertainment industry? Did you bully her?

@Nangong Baichuan, can you explain it?

Several comments were like this, but Nangong Baichuan did not respond.

Nan Yanran put down her phone, seeming to be thinking about something.

After a while, she finally picked up her phone and sent a message to Chen Mengchu.

"Xiao Chuchu, help me check Nangong Baichuan, don't alarm anyone."

After a while, the other party replied, "Okay."

Nan Yanran deleted the WeChat message before putting down her phone again.

An hour later.

Nangong Baichuan prepared the meal.

He walked into the living room and called out to Nan Yanran, "Xiaoran, the food is ready. I've kept you waiting for so long."

Normally, Nan Yanran would be extremely unhappy if she heard these words, but now, she was not so happy.

Nan Yanran smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."

Nangong Baichuan seemed to realize that something was wrong and quickly said, "Xiaoran, what are you talking about? There's no need to talk about this between us."

Nan Yanran's lips curved into a not-too-ugly smile, "Okay, I understand."

Nangong Baichuan helped Nan Yanran to the dining table to eat.

"What's wrong? You look so serious." Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu, who was sitting at the dining table with a serious expression.

"Yanran sent me a message." Chen Mengchu handed the phone in his hand to Lu Jingxiao.

"I think Nangong Baichuan doesn't want to quit the circle." Chen Mengchu noticed it when he was reading Weibo yesterday.

How could he not check Weibo? Moreover, she gave him the phone yesterday. He obviously checked Weibo, but he just didn't tell anyone.

This person doesn't seem that affectionate.

She had seen affectionate looks, for example: Ji Chenyang towards Jiang Xi, or Si Chengfeng towards Pei Jiujiu.

And Nangong Baichuan seemed to...

Chen Mengchu didn't dare to make any guesses, so he had to stop guessing.

"How do you know?" Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu, as if asking how she knew, how she knew that Nangong Baichuan didn't want to quit the circle.

"Because of his eyes, his actions."

"When he went public, the expression on Yanran's face when he was on the variety show didn't seem fake. But what happened in the past two days finally made her realize that something was wrong."

"Yes, he's a celebrity, he's very busy. How could he not come to see Nan Yanran after he knew she was pregnant and was surrounded? How could he not come to pick her up?"

What can’t these incidents prove?

If not, what about what happened on Weibo yesterday?

All this made Chen Mengchu suspicious.

"Chu Chu, do you know something?" Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu seriously.

Chen Mengchu looked at Lu Jingxiao and no longer concealed it.

"Yesterday, Nangong Baichuan read the Weibo post, but didn't respond."

"How do you know?" Lu Jingxiao asked Chen Mengchu.

Chen Mengchu smiled, his eyes becoming gentle, "Have you forgotten what I do?"

Lu Jingxiao suddenly understood.

"That……"

"Let's wait, there's no rush."

She wanted to see if her judgment was wrong.

She actually hoped that she was wrong, so that she wouldn't...

"Don't worry for now, let's see what the situation is and we won't let her suffer any injustice."

Lu Jingxiao comforted Chen Mengchu and told her not to worry too much.

If Nangong Baichuan really deceived Chen Mengchu, he would not let him go.

Although he didn't have much affection for Nan Yanran, they grew up together. If she was really bullied, he would not stand idly by.

Chen Mengchu nodded, picked up the spoon and started to drink the porridge.

………………

Three days later.

Nangong Baichuan still didn't say anything, and Chen Mengchu also found out.

But she didn't know whether she should tell Nan Yanran.

In order to prevent Nan Yanran from getting excited or anything happening, she had no choice but to come to Yujingwan.

This way she can be protected without getting hurt.

At noon, Nan Yanran came to Yujingwan.

Lu Jingxiao and Shen Mengchu were waiting for her in the villa.

And she came alone, but Nangong Baichuan still didn't see her off.

"He still hasn't sent you off." Chen Mengchu asked Nangong Baichuan in a firm tone.

Nan Yanran didn't say anything, which made everything clear.

"Xiao Chuchu, just tell me. You don't have to worry about me." Nan Yanran asked her to tell the truth and not to hide anything.
