As Ning Ran expected, the interview was very successful.
The beautiful teacher kept praising them, “The children are excellent. In terms of reaction skills and logical skills, theirs is the best out of all the other children we have interviewed so far. Kids with such talents must be nurtured well, or it would go to waste. Ms. Ding, thank you for sending your children here. We believe these angels will excel tremendously in our school.”
Ning Ran was very excited, “Thank you, teacher! Thank you so much!”
“But, seeing as they’re still so young, I’d recommend them to stop doing advertisements during their school days. Although the children can make a lot of money quickly through advertisements, wasting the children’s talents like that could be bad for them.” The teacher said.
“Advertisements? What advertisements?” Ning Ran didn’t understand.
“The advertisements that your children did for the computer. I saw the advertisement online. They’re quite popular on the internet now.” The teacher said.
Ning Ran looked at Dabao and Erbao. Dabao lowered his head and Erbao turned her head to look at the bulletin on the kindergarten wall.
Then, Ning Ran looked at Cheng Xiangyun, “You got my kids to film advertisements behind my back?”
“I……”
“How could you do that? I told you I won’t let my kids go to work! I can afford to raise them myself!” Ning Ran was getting worked up.
“Mommy, don’t blame Aunt Xiang. We were the ones who begged her to do it.” Dabao spoke up.
“Yeah, mommy. Blame it on me. Brother and I just want to help earn some money. You have worked so hard for us!” Erbao said.
Ning Ran was touched by that, and let out a sigh.
“It’s all my fault. I did it without getting your permission. But let’s not talk about this now, and settle the school fees first.” Cheng Xiangyun said softly.
Of course, Ning Ran didn’t have that much money. Five hundred thousand was all they managed to come up with after Cheng Xiangyun withdrew all her savings throughout many years.
Ning Ran felt even more upset at the mention of money.
Of course, Cheng Xiangyun wasn’t the kind of person who would exploit children like that. Ning Ran just needed the money too badly.
But then, the teacher’s words surprised the two of them again, “You don’t have to worry about the school fees. The principal has told us that as long as there are no problems with the interview, these two angels can enroll here for free.”
“For free?” Ning Ran and Cheng Xiangyun couldn’t believe their ears.
This is Zhixing Kindergarten, after all. A school that many could not enter despite being willing to spend two million on. And they were enrolled for free?
How was that possible?
“Yes, that’s right. Our principal has given us his word. Don’t worry, Ms. Ding. You may leave the kids with us and go about your business. Remember to pick up the children in the afternoon, and give us a call if you need to extend your child’s time at school.” The beautiful teacher said with a smile.
“We really don’t have to pay?” Ning Ran still couldn’t believe it.
Cheng Xiangyun secretly motioned at Ning Ran to stop asking any further. That’s hundreds of thousands that we’re talking about here. If they say you don’t have to pay, just accept the offer and stop bringing this up already! Are you stupid or something?
“Yes, you really don’t have to, Ms. Ding. Don’t worry about it.”
“Alright then. Thank you, teacher. Dabao, Erbao, hurry up and thank the teacher!”
“Thank you, teacher!” The two kids said in unison.
“Alright, let’s go meet the other kids.” The teacher said.
“You can go now, mommy. Remember to come pick us up after school!” Erbao waved her hand.
“Alright, be a good kid and listen to the teacher, okay? Bye!”
“Bye, mommy!”
……
Nanshi Corporation, CEO’s office.
“This is Ms. Fei’s activities in the past few days. We have found no abnormalities so far.” Jiang Zhe put the documents on Nan Chen’s desk.
Nan Chen’s face grew cold as he pushed the documents aside.
He could care less about those useless records. He wanted clues.
Jiang Zhe got nervous as he sensed something was wrong.
“Maybe they had missed out some details, so they couldn’t find the kid.” Jiang Zhe said tremblingly.
“Worthless!” Nan Chen scolded.
Jiang Zhe dared not say a word. By “worthless”, he wasn’t sure if his boss was referring to him or those under him. It might’ve been both.
“Keep searching.” Nan Chen said.
“Yes, Mr. Chen.”
Jiang Zhe opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but held his tongue.
“Speak.” Nan Chen said coldly.
“I’m afraid we may not make any progress if we continue to follow Ms. Fei like this. She’s a public figure, so she would often put on disguises when entering private clubhouses. The people below can’t get in as they have no memberships, and they wouldn’t dare to just barge in there after Ms. Fei either. So, they couldn’t find out who Ms. Fei has been meeting inside. This is the reason why we weren’t able to gather any clues.” Jiang Zhe carefully observed his boss’s expression as he finished his explanation.
Although Nan Chen was strict, he was also smart. He knew Jiang Zhe was not finding excuses, but telling the truth.
It seems that to find that child, he would have to make a move on Luo Fei directly.
“Mr. Chen, I think there is no need to rush this. We’ll be able to find the kids sooner or later. Ms. Qin has called and asked if you would like to head over today so that she can arrange her schedule to see you.” Jiang Zhe said.
Nan Chen looked at the calendar on his desk. Time sure flies. Yet another week has passed, and it was time for his psychological consultation again.
Nan Chen stood up and grabbed a black coat, “Prepare the car.”
“Yes, Mr. Chen.”
Half an hour later, Nan Chen was sitting in front of Qin Lan.
Qin Lan was Nan Chen’s psychological counselor, and one of his very few friends.
Nan Chen was a very cold person who was feared by many, but very few regarded him as a friend.
He rarely treated others as his friend as well. Most of the time, he protected himself with a thick layer of armor. Only in front of Qin Lan, was he able to say many things that he usually couldn’t, and become a normal person again.
Qin Lan was a top psychological counselor in China, as well as a beautiful single mother.
Qin Lan never mentioned who the child belonged to, and Nan Chen never asked her about it either.
Everyone has secrets that they could never show anyone. That was how they would protect their individuality and self-esteem.
Nan Chen closed his eyes, his long eyelashes covering them. Qin Lan exclaimed. This was truly a face that could drive women crazy!
On top of that, he was also an outstanding and incredibly rich person.
God was too unfair, giving all the good things in this world to this cold man.
“Are you still not interested in women at all?” Qin Lan asked.
This question that has been asked for many years is still being asked now.
But surprisingly, Nan Chen did not answer it immediately this time.
He seemed to be hesitating.
This made Qin Lan very surprised. Could it be that this brick of ice has started to heal and became interested in the opposite sex?
On one hand, the reason why Nan Chen has always insisted on having psychological counseling every week was to relieve the stress from work.
On the other hand, it was to solve his own physical problems.
All these years, he had never been interested in the opposite sex. To him, seeing someone from the opposite sex was like looking at a model in art. He found them to be good-looking, but simply had no interest in them.
