Nan Chen felt that time flies really quickly when he was with the kids, as two hours had passed just like that.
The conference meeting had ended, and Jiang Zhe submitted the meeting minutes to Nan Chen’s desk.
Nan Chen glanced through it, and quickly put it down.
“Are we affecting your work?” Dabao suddenly asked.
Nan Chen was stunned. Dabao’s maturity was far beyond his imagination.
Normally, a usual response would be to assure the person that they aren’t.
But Dabao was no normal person, and Nan Chen felt it would be inappropriate for him to lie to these kids.
“Yes, but just a little. I’m willing to spend some time with you two, as it feels like a good way to rest for me as well.” Nan Chen answered.
This was the truth. It was the absolute truth.
“Then, we’ll be going home now. You carry on with your work.” Dabao said.
“It’s no hurry. Daddy will come pick you up soon.”
As he said that, Jiang Zhe came in and told them that Mr. Nan was here.
Nan Chen thought it was just him. But then as he opened the door, the faint scent of orange blossom could be detected.
Nan Chen frowned, That woman came too?
“Mommy!” Erbao rushed over immediately.
“Hey, daddy’s right in front. Isn’t it a bit rude to just ignore me and go straight for mommy?” Nan Xing stopped Erbao.
Erbao hugged Nan Xing and called him daddy in a sweet voice.
“That’s a good girl. Come let me hug you too, son!” Nan Xing called out to Dabao.
But Dabao didn’t move.
It was obvious that Dabao still didn’t like this flamboyant daddy.
Nan Xing knew that too, but no one could force him to do anything he didn’t want to.
He didn’t continue when he saw that Dabao didn’t want to come over.
“Mr. Jiang, could you please have the kids wait for us outside? We need to talk.” Nan Xing said.
“Yes, Mr. Nan.”
The kids followed Jiang Zhe out the room obediently.
Only Nan Xing, Ning Ran and Nan Chen were left in the room.
Of course, the scent of orange blossom in the air as well.
A scent that only Nan Chen could identify clearly.
“Brother, I’ve brought Ding Mi over for two reasons. To pick up the kids, and to talk with you.” Nan Xing said.
Nan Chen kept quiet.
That’s how he normally was, quiet and cold. He only showed enthusiasm and friendliness in front of the kids.
“Brother, I want to marry this woman, and I hope you’ll give us your blessings.” Nan Xing continued.
Ning Ran stared at Nan Xing wide-eyed.
This wasn’t what he said on the way here. He had told her that they were just coming to pick up the kids.
And most importantly, Ning Ran only came with him because he said Nan Chen wasn’t in the office.
Now, not only was Poker Face here, but Nan Xing had also caused such an awkward scene!
Nan Chen raised his head and glanced at them coldly.
In terms of appearances, this woman would make a good match for his brother.
She was born with the face of a star; her beauty was unique and highly recognizable. It was unlike the millions of similar-looking internet sensations, nor was it vulgarly sultry.
Her beauty was one of a kind.
She seemed like a pure young girl, yet her eyes gave off a ladylike charm.
She was exuding a very high level of charm.
Ning Ran noticed Poker Face had been staring at her, and felt a little nervous.
Poker Face rarely looked at people directly like this.
Ning Ran looked away from the pressure and kept her head low after making brief eye contact.
“Brother?” Nan Xing noticed Nan Chen’s strange behavior as well.
Nan Chen quickly snapped out of it and pretended to pick up some documents, “I’m very busy.”
He had no intention to chat at all.
“Don’t be like that, brother. I’m your only brother! How could you treat me like this?” Nan Xing cried out.
“Get out.” Nan Chen said.
To Nan Chen, his brother coming here today like this must have been the work of this woman.
Was she trying to force her way in like this?
Did she think that Nan Chen was such a pushover? I won’t even let you have a chance to speak!
“Ding Mi, hurry up and beg brother to agree to our wedding and give us his blessings.” Nan Xing looked at Ning Ran.
Ning Ran was dumbfounded.
I have always been at odds with that Poker Face as it is, and now you want me to beg him?
Are you kidding me? Even if he originally did agree to it, he would surely object the moment I asked!
Ning Ran was well aware of how much Poker Face hated her.
Because she hated him just as much!
“Since when did I promise to marry you?” Ning Ran asked Nan Xing.
Now it was Nan Xing’s turn to be dumbfounded.
After all that’s happened, was he all alone in this?
“Come on, we have two kids together. Who else would you marry if not me?” Nan Xing exclaimed.
“Who I marry is my business. I never said I was going to marry you. Now you want me to beg someone for your hand in marriage? I have to beg to marry someone? How ridiculous!” Ning Ran said coldly.
Nan Chen’s expression darkened.
Is this woman playing hard to get?
All she wants is to marry into the Nan family, so what kind of act is she putting up now?
What does she mean by not having to beg to marry? Does she mean that she can just marry anyone else?
“Don’t be like that, Ding Mi. He’s my only brother. I hope to receive his blessings in my marriage. We are twins, and only when I receive his blessings can I be happy.” Nan Xing said.
“I’m not trying to be anything. This whole thing was funny right from the start. I never said I was going to marry you to begin with, and you’re having me beg someone for it? What kind of joke is this?” Ning Ran said coldly.
Ning Ran’s disdainful attitude was making Nan Chen increasingly irritated.
This woman is seriously making a fool out of me! And not just me, but the entire Nan family as well!
She thinks she’s really smart, that she has everything under her control and can get everything she wants!
“Darling, how could you say that? Can’t you talk to brother nicely?” Nan Xing said anxiously.
“I’m being very nice here, Nan Xing. My children are my own and have nothing to do with anyone else. Even if you are their biological father, doesn’t mean I have to marry you.” Ning Ran said.
“Wouldn’t that be getting them a stepfather? What if he doesn’t treat them well like I do?” Nan Xing exclaimed.
“I won’t marry someone who doesn’t treat them well.” Ning Ran said.
Nan Chen was utterly furious. Does this woman mean she has another candidate by that?
She’s really going to get them a stepfather?!
