Chapter 672 Amazed Beyond Words

However, Nan Chen didn't want to continue arguing with Ning Ran, so he remained silent. Hevaguely sensed that she was exhibiting signs of the so-called emotion of jealousy.

Unlike Nan Xing, he had few scandals and rarely had any romantic entanglements with women, sohe had little knowledge regarding jealousy and the like.

In other words, he wouldn't be bothered even if women were to be jealous because of him since hewas all too powerful. Thus, he was indeed pretty dense when it came to discerning women’semotions.

His own emotions were far more important to him, so how others felt didn’t matter much to him.However, things were seemingly different then. He started growing concerned over Ning Ran’sreaction.

That was why he spent so much effort explaining things to her, rambling throughout the drive.Interestingly, he discovered that too many explanations couldn't calm her down. Conversely, shewould become even more emotional and object all the more vehemently.

Therefore, he decided to revert to his usual style and remain silent, allowing her to interpret thingshowever she liked. Consequently, Ning Ran went silent.

She wasn't insane, so she couldn't prattle on alone. When the car reached the entrance ofMountview Inn, Lu Jingyuan also happened to arrive in her car.

As soon as her two children alighted from the car, Lu Yunxue dashed over to Nan Chen. “You'rehere, Mr. Handsome?" She was one of those who treated someone according to his looks, so sheaddressed the man as "Mr. Handsome" directly instead of "Mr. Nan.”

"Hello, Yunxue,” Nan Chen replied gently, for once. Lu Yunbing, on the other hand, was much moreserious. Bowing slightly, she inclined her head a fraction and greeted politely, “Hello, Mr. Nan.”Inside the house, Erbao heard their voices and came flying out. "Mommy, Daddy, Ms. Lu, Yunxue,Yunbing... you're here!” It wasn't easy for her to greet so many people in a single breath, butfortunately, she still managed to do it.

As though long-lost friends, Erbao and Lu Yunxue hugged each other and twirled around in circles.The adorable sight had Ning Ran and Lu Jingyuan smiling from ear to ear.

Mountview Inn was established by Lu Jingyuan, while Ning Ran and Nan Chen were merely rentingit. For that reason, Lu Jingyuan was actually more familiar with the place than they were.

The food was prepared by the chef Nan Chen brought over because Erbao loved that chef's cookingthe most. She was especially hooked on the desserts he made.

When the food was served, even Lu Jingyuan praised the fare to the skies, saying that it wasincredibly delicious. They all chatted as they ate. Erbao ate the fastest, for she was in a hurry tofinish eating and proceed to the next segment—gift-giving.

Nan Chen had many presents prepared, including dolls, books, children’s computers, and alsosnacks. Erbao took them out one by one, gifting them to Lu Yunxue and Lu Yunbing personally.Even the usually indifferent Lu Yunbing was touched. For the first time, she hugged Erbao, her eyesred-rimmed. Puzzlement deluged Ning Ran. “Why is Yunbing crying?”

Lu Jingyuan wasn't quite sure what was happening either. “She seldom allows her emotions toshow. What's going on here?”

Lu Yunbing's eyes were merely red-rimmed at first, but after she heard that exchange, tears escapedher eyes.

Erbao promptly panicked. “What's wrong? Do you not like these presents? What do you like, then?I'll give it to you. Dabao and I will give you anything you want as long as it's something we have.”Lu Yunbing shook her head but said nothing. Nan Chen had been observing from the side, but hekept silent as well, for he couldn't figure out what was wrong with Lu Yunbing.

Finally, someone spoke. It was Dabao, who hadn't said anything thus far. Walking over to LuYunbing, he took her hand and patted the back of it in consolation. “We're only giving you presents.We're not leaving.”

Lu Yunbing, who had been keeping her head hung low, lifted her head and looked at him. Shesought confirmation with her eyes. In response, Dabao nodded. “We're really not leaving. At least,not for the time being. We're only giving you presents to express our fondness for you, not to bidyou farewell.”

Only then did Lu Yunbing lower her head once more. She stroked the plush doll Erbao gave her, thesorrow on her face gone without a trace. Everyone gaped at Dabao, amazed beyond words.What's a soulmate? This is exactly it! And who said he’s young? He's far more astute than us all. Noone could unravel the mystery, but he saw right through it!

“I had a feeling, but I didn't dare voice it,” Lu Yunxue remarked belatedly.

Nevertheless, it might also be true since she was Lu Yunbing's twin. As such, they naturallyunderstood each other better than others.

However, Lu Yunbing was more withdrawn in nature. It was entirely possible that Lu Yunxuefathomed her sister's thoughts but didn’t dare voice them.

As though to prove that, Lu Yunbing swung her gaze over, scaring Lu Yunxue so much that shehastily zipped her mouth.

“Don’t worry. We haven't finished filming yet. Even when we do finish filming, we'll tell you beforeleaving,” Ning Ran assured smilingly.

A tad embarrassed after Dabao exposed her, Lu Yunbing shot to her feet and ran off.

Both Dabao and Erbao chased after her. Lu Yunxue likewise started moving and chased after themfrom behind.

All four children went off to play by themselves. Hence, only Ning Ran, Nan Chen, and Lu Jingyuanremained at the dining table.

“The kids are already attached to each other. How rare!” Ning Ran commented.

"Yeah. I didn’t expect Yunbing to be so attached. She rarely acts like that. Right now, I feelsomewhat guilty. Perhaps I like living in Livingsfill, but they might not necessarily like it. The samegoes for my way of living at present. It's only to my liking, but unnecessarily theirs. I've never askedthem for their opinion. Maybe I've really been too selfish.”

Lu Jingyuan appeared rather despondent.

“That isn't true. I can tell that they're also very happy,” Ning Ran consoled.

However, Lu Jingyuan shook her head. “Thinking about it now, they haven't been all that happy. Thisis a small town, so most of the children here are locals. Many of them speak the local dialect, but mytwo kids can't speak it. A few times, I asked them what exactly happened when they had conflictswith other children at the kindergarten, but they refused to say anything. I suspect they might havebeen bullied. Well, girls are prone to being targets of bullying anyway, much less Yunbing who'seccentric and doesn't fit in. Thus, she hardly has any friends. Now, she finally has Dabao and Erbaoto keep her company. That's why she’s worried that you'll all leave anytime.”

Nan Chen couldn't empathize with that, for he was too powerful. He had no idea how it felt to bepicked on.

More accurately speaking, he had only ever been the aggressor, so he couldn't understand thefeeling of being on the receiving end of bullying.

Contrarily, Ning Ran knew that Lu Jingyuan must have faced many indescribable difficulties whenshe was a single mother raising two daughters.

No matter how strong she was, she was still a woman at the end of the day.

And regardless of how strong a woman was, there were many things men could easily accomplishthat a woman couldn't do.

“In that case, why don't you leave with us? Aren't you a designer? Look for a job in Flower City andput down roots there. Then, the kids can grow up together. What do you think?” Such an ideaoccurred to Ning Ran out of the blue.
