My Wife Is a Superstar
Chapter 243

After finishing filming one scene at the studio, Ning Ran took a look at her mobile phone and sawthat there were a dozen missed calls.

Most of them were from Ning Zigiang. How annoying.

The crew had ordered lunch boxes, but despite having no appetite, she had to buck up and take afew bites.

Acting was a physical job. If she didn't replenish her energy in time, she would have no strength tocontinue working in the afternoon

After taking two bites, Ning Ran’s phone vibrated, and it turned out to be Ning Zigiang callingagain.

Ning Ran had no choice but to answer her phone.

“Can you knock it off? I'm still working. What have you been calling for?” Ning Ran asked angrily.She didn't expect Ning Zigiang to be even more aggressive than her. “How dare you yell at me? Youlet the Nan family investigate me! Do you think you can deceive me? Since you're not benevolent,don't blame us for being unrighteous. You have until today to bring the money, or I'll stir the ashesof that damned woman in dog's blood!"

Ning Ran was a little confused. What did he mean by the Nan family investigated him?

"What on earth are you talking about?”

“I'm coming for you now. You must give us the money today or you can forget about getting yourmother’s ashes!” Ning Zigiang warned.

“Don’t come! I'm working now and I don't have the time for you if you come. We'll talk about it laterafter I finish filming!” Ning Ran hung up after speaking.

Ning Zigiang called again, but she didn’t answer.

After swallowing the rest of her lunch, she was pumped up again and went back to work.

The director, Wang Yan, took better care of Ning Ran as he scheduled her scenes during the day. Soat seven o'clock, she was ready to go.

Unexpectedly, Ning Zigiang was waiting outside.

Although they had been filming in a studio, it wasn't fixed, and they often changed scenes andlocations.

However, it was strange that Feng Minsheng and Ning Zigiang could always replace the place whereNing Ran was shooting in time.

It was really quite a headache for Ning Ran.

"You ungrateful brat! Just say so if you don't want to give us the money. How dare you tell the Nanfamily and have them investigate us?! You think I can't do anything about you because you have theNan family backing you up?” Ning Zigiang roared.

“I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm still borrowing the money from people, but I haven'tgot it. Just give me a little more time.” Ning Ran didn’t want to argue with him.

"By today! Luo Yi has already bought the dog blood. If you don't give us the money today, yourmother will go to hell! I was going to give you more time, but who knew you would be sodisobedient. Since that's the case, don't blame us for not being lenient!” Ning Zigiang shouted.

At this moment, Cheng Xiangyun came over. “What's going on?”

Ning Ran gestured Cheng Xiangyun to leave as she didn’t want her to get involved in this.

It was humiliating to have a father like this, and Ning Ran didn’t want too many people to knowabout this.

“I'm her father and we're dealing with family affairs. You go away!” Ning Zigiang huffed.

Cheng Xiangyun glanced at Ning Ran and questioned her with her eyes.

Ning Ran waved her hands helplessly and said, “I'll settle this on my own. You go first.”

Feeling that it was inappropriate to meddle in other's family matters, Cheng Xiangyun steppedaside.

"When are you giving us the money? What time?” Ning Zigiang asked Ning Ran.

“It's late now. The bank is already closed and many things can't be done. You gave me three days, soI'll give it to you tomorrow. As for what the Nan family did to investigate you, they didn’t investigateyou, but me. You and the old witch can act so well. How could you not fool them?”

Ning Ran was calm. She knew Ning Zigiang's purpose was to ask for money, and it was Luo Yi whohad taught him to say such harsh words with the purpose of pressuring her to come up with themoney as soon as possible.

As expected, Ning Zigiang didn't know what to say at Ning Ran's ruthless retort.

"Also, how much money do you think you will get once I give you that ten million?” Ning Ran askedNing Zigiang's expression was unnatural. “Why are you asking that? You're my daughter and it'syour duty to honor me! Isn't it right for you to give me some money after so many years ofupbringing?”

"Answer me. How much can you get?”

“This is between Luo Yi and me. It's none of your business.” Ning Zigiang was obviously diffident.

“I bet you don't get a single cent. Luo Yi was with you back then because of my mother's company.Now that you're old, do you think she'll still love you?”

Seeing that Ning Zigiang was quiet, Ning Ran continued, “What does she love about you? Does shelove that you're old and grey, or that you're a heartless bastard who killed his ex-wife? So once youget the money, I guess you won't get any of it. Isn't that right?”

“Luo Yi will dump you and take the money to replace a younger man to live a happy life. Then you willget older and wimpier, and finally, leave this world in remorse.”

Ning Zigiang's complexion turned for the worst the more Ning Ran spoke.

"You're talking nonsense! Luo Yi and I are very much in love. She's much better than that deadbeatmother of yours!” Ning Zigiang was reluctant to admit Ning Ran'’s statement.

“Are you lying to me or are you lying to yourself? Luo Yi just wants your money! When my motherwas rich, she asked you to screw with my mother's money. Now that my mother is gone, and thecompany is destroyed by both of you, she asked you to force me to ask around for money! NingZigiang, are you really clueless, or are you deluding yourself?” Ning Ran screamed.

Ning Zigiang was about to say something when his phone rang. It was a video call.

“Put that little bitch on the line,” Luo Yi said.

Ning Zigiang quickly turned the screen to Ning Ran. “She's here.”

“Ning Ran, you see that? That's your mother’s ashes, and this is your grandfather's. If you don't giveus the money and use the power of the Nan family to deal with us instead, I'll mix them all up indog blood.”

"And, don't you wanna know what's inside the USB your damned mother left behind? If you wannaknow what's inside, then don't let the Nan family hear about the truth. They will question you soon,and you have to admit what we said was the truth.”

"All the words your father and I said were the truth and you have to admit to every single one ofthem. Otherwise, you will never get your mother's and grandfather's ashes, and I will destroy thatUSB flash drive! I mean what I said. I have informants from the Nan family. If you dare mess around,you'll surely regret it!"

Before Luo Yi could finish speaking, Ning Ran hung up.

Ning Ran was surely anxious because she knew Luo Yi was brutal and capable of any misconduct.“Ning Zigiang, I'll give you the money. I'm just reminding you, don't do evil with Luo Yi, or you'llreap what you sow!” Ning Ran warned.

Ning Zigiang's lips twitched, but he remained quiet.

“You go retrieve my grandfather's and my mother's ashes quietly for me, and that USB as well. OnceI get the items, I'll transfer ten million to your account. That way, you can get ten million alone andleave this city. Stay away from that vicious woman, and don't be at her mercy anymore! If you don'tlisten to me, she'll abandon you once she gets the money and your end of the deal will be terrible!”Ning Ran said.

Ning Zigiang's mouth opened again, but he still didn't say a word. It was obvious he was hesitating.After spending so many years with Luo Yi, he would naturally know what kind of person Luo Yi was.
