My Wife Is a Superstar
Chapter 371

Ning Ran was overthinking—Nan Chen was not even thinking about doing anything to her.

"Who do you think you are?” Nan Chen asked coldly.

The woman glowered at him but said nothing. She knew it was time she stopped making nastycomments.

Now that she finally stopped her mischief, the man turned abruptly and strode towards the door. Inno time, he was gone from the ward.

Seeing him gone, Ning Ran let out a sigh of relief.

What happened was really unnerving—but it ended well.

He was finally going back to Nanshi Corporation.

But Ning Ran's joy was short-lived. Not long after Nan Chen disappeared out of her sight, anotherperson came rushing into her ward.

It was Ouyang Qi. His hair was ruffled and his face was pale because he dashed over after replaceingout what happened.

There's a bouquet of flowers in his hands but they were not roses this time around—they were lilies.“What brings you here?” Ning Ran asked carefully. She had her guards up the moment she saw him.“I'm your most loyal fan! Of course I should pay you a visit when you're sick!” He answeredintuitively.

Ouyang Qi put down the flowers on the table and sat down on her bed.

Ning Ran quickly moved away. “What are you doing? Don't come too close!”

"Oh, come on! You don't have to get all tensed up. I won't do anything to you in a hospital! Whatelse can I do to a sick patient other than taking good care of her?” The man joked, trying to ease thesituation

But Ning Ran eyed him uncomfortably as she clenched the blanket tight.

“You can sit over there.” She said, tilting her chin towards the chair.

Since this is a VIP ward, there were plenty of seats for visitors. There was a couch and a few chairs,and even a small dining table in the room.

“Do you really dislike me this much?” Ouyang Qi complained in a childish tone.

“This is my bed and I'm a patient who needs to rest. And I don't even know where you've been. Youmight have a lot of dirt and germs on your clothes.” Ning Ran replied.

"Hey, you can't say that about me! I showered before I came!” He retorted.

Ouyang Qi was very particular when it came to personal hygiene. He showered every day and noone had ever said he was unhygienic.

"What I said has nothing to do with whether you bathed or not. I'm talking about germs andbacteria that might infect me.” Ning Ran explained.

Ouyang Qi sprang from the bed and looked at her in shock.

“You're the one who's sick here, so you're the one who's carrying all the viruses! Not me!”"Whatever. Just don't sit here.” The woman said impatiently.

"Alright, I'll just go over there.”

Ouyang Qi finally gave in and went over to the chair. He sat down and gazed at Ning Ran intently asif he was admiring a work of art that he treasured with his whole heart.

The patient moved uneasily under his gaze and stole a look at him. “Why are you looking at me likea pervert?”

Ouyang Qi straightened up and gasped in disbelief. “A pervert? That's an insult for someone whocomes from a well-to-do family!”

Ning Ran scoffed and rolled her eyes. “But it's your dad who is rich, not you.”

Ouyang Qi beat his chest and retaliated profusely. “My dad's money is my money. Although he'sreally strict with my spending now, I will still inherit everything he has when he’s gone.”

Ning Ran smirked and said, “Wow, did you just wish your dad dead?”

“Don’t put words in my mouth. I'm not a saint, but I'm not that bad either. I've never once wishedmy dad dies earlier so I could inherit his wealth.”

Ouyang Qi's tone suddenly became serious. It turned out that there were also things he caredabout, like what people thought about him.

Looking at him all agitated, Ning Ran smiled and asked, “Then why did you say you'd inherit whathe has if he dies?”

Ouyang Qi stood up at last and went towards her. “I finally put a smile on your face.”

But Ning Ran shook her index finger at him and he went back to his seat quietly.

"How did you know I'm at the hospital?” She asked, changing the topic.

"How would I not know you were rushed to the hospital when you were at the reality show? I'mupdated on everything about you.”

Ning Ran looked at him carefully and asked again, “I mean, how do you know about it?"

"Someone told me, of course. It's not like I would consult a fortune teller.” Ouyang Qi repliedaccordingly without revealing who gave him the news.

"So, who is this someone? It's such a creepy coincidence.” Ning Ran pried.

Ouyang Qi smiled slyly. “It is a secret.”

"Alright, get out.” Ning Ran gestured to lie down and rest.

“Hey, you can't do that to me!” The man stomped his foot.

"What's the point of staying here if you're not gonna tell me anything?” Ning Ran puffed her cheeksand grumbled.

“You can't just throw a tantrum and force me to spill my secret! That's unfair.” He growled.

"Are you not leaving? I'll call for the nurse then.” Ning Ran reached for the call button.

"Wait. You can't be so unreasonable. I'm here to check on you because I'm worried. And you'rechasing me out instead.” He mumbled in an upset tone.

“l asked you a question but you refused to answer, so what's the point of talking to you?” Ning Ranglared at him angrily.

“I'll answer you if I can, but there are things that I'm not supposed to say!” The helpless man replied.“It's either you tell me or you leave. And don't ever come to see me again if you leave. We're notfriends anymore.” Ning Ran gave him the ultimatum.

Ouyang Qi's eyes glimmered in excitement. “Does that mean we're friends if I tell you?”

Ning Ran rolled her eyes and thought about the matter. “Well, probably. It depends.”

“I can only tell you it's someone from the production team. That's it, else the person might getkicked out of the team.” Ouyang Qi answered honestly.

“I thought everyone from the production team signed a non-disclosure agreement?” Ning Ranasked curiously.

“People can do anything for money, and I have lots of it. That's why I always get what I want.” Hebragged shamelessly.

But Ning Ran still felt he was hiding something.

“Then how did you know I was filming the show?” She queried.

“Well, it's the same thing. I'm able to get any information I want as long as I'm willing to pay a hugeamount of money.” Ouyang Qi said, shrugging his shoulder.

Ning Ran felt like they were going in a circle and she would never be able to get anythingsubstantial out of him.

“Fine, I'm done questioning you. You may leave now.” The patient said curtly and pulled up herblanket.

"What's wrong? I answered all your questions. We're supposed to be friends now. You can’t renegeon your promise just like that.” Ouyang Qi whined.

"You didn’t even give me a name. How is that even considered a satisfactory answer? I don't thinkyou're even sincere about becoming friends with me. Let's stop wasting each other's time.” NingRan said calmly as she pointed towards the door.

“I guess beautiful women are all heartless. You can't go back on your word like that. No one athome dares to treat me like this. I don't care. I'm not leaving.” Ouyang Qi sulked as he crossed hisarms before his chest.
