Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Chapter 269

The chauffeur was already waiting for them by the time they were done with breakfast.

Nan Chen needed to rush for a meeting, so he had no time to send Ning Ran and the kids to school. Thus he had tasked his chauffeur who doubled up as his bodyguard to send them instead.

The chauffeur was a sharp-looking fellow with slightly tanned skin and surprisingly white teeth when he smiled.

“Third Madam.”

This was the first time Ning Ran was being greeted this way. Third Madam?

“How did you just address me?”

“Sir Chen is the Third Young Master, so naturally you must be Third Madam. I should greet you as Young Mistress, but I have no choice but to greet you as Third Madam to distinguish you from the other madams,” explained the chauffeur politely.

Well, it sounds logical. Ning Ran knew Nan Chen was used to being greeted as Third Young Master. Even Zheng Lunlun greeted him as his Third Uncle.

But both ‘Third Uncle’ or ‘Third Young Master’ sound fine. Why does ‘Third Madam’ make me sound like his mistress?

“Third Madam, what have I done wrong?” The chauffeur asked warily, detecting a shift in Ning Ran’s mood.

“Oh, you have done nothing wrong. Actually, you don’t need to be so polite. Just greet me as Ding.”

“No, I can’t. I cannot flout the rules. The Nan family places much emphasis on house rules and discipline. One would be in a mess without discipline.”

Ning Ran was impressed with his inspiring speech. This boy speaks well. It is a pity he is only a chauffeur.

“How long have you worked in the Nan family?”

“Over a year. I am a poor student sponsored by Sir Chen. Since I graduated from university, I’ve been working in one of the subsidiary companies under Nanshi Corporation as a sales personnel.”

So he is a university graduate! No wonder he speaks so well. But why is he working as a chauffeur if he is a university graduate?

Guessing her thoughts, he continued, “Actually, I am only Sir Chen’s trainee personal assistant only. He sets very high expectations for his assistant, who is required to understand his lifestyle very well. So, I’m still learning.”

Ning Ran did not really understand his role, but she surmised that he was someone Nan Chen trusted.

A sudden thought struck her, “Then do you know Luo Fei?”

“I know. She is Sir Chen’s ex-girlfriend.”

“Then did you refer her as Third Madam too?”

Even she was abashed, asking the question.

Why did I ask that? What do I want by asking the question?

He smiled, “No. The Nan family does not have much contact with Ms. Luo.”

“Is she not your Third Young Master’s girlfriend? Why didn’t you have much contact with her?” NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

“By right, we should not comment too much on Sir Chen’s matters. But Luo Fei is merely Sir Chen’s girlfriend in name. They don’t have much contact.”

“Okay, never mind. I’m just curious. It’s only a casual question.”

The young man only smiled and did not comment further.

“What is your name?”

“I am Wang Cheng.”

“Okay, shall we be friends from now on?”

Wang Cheng was a trainee personal assistant and knew a lot about the Nan family’s affairs. Ning Ran believed she could befriend him.

At least, I can find out more about the Nan family from him. It doesn’t hurt to have more friends.

“Thank you, Third Madam. I will be glad to.”

“Great. I’ll treat you to a meal one day.”

“Thank you, Third Madam.”

“Oh yes, doesn’t Sir Chen have a girlfriend now?”

“I think no. Why do you say that?”

“I saw him with a beautiful lady once when we went for dinner. He is such a busy man, and seldom accompanies a woman for dinner, I guess she must be his new girlfriend.”

Wang Cheng smiled, “I don’t know who the lady is, but I’m sure Sir Chen does not have a new girlfriend. Sir Chen is different from Fourth Young Master, and is not particularly interested in the beautiful ladies even if they throw themselves at him.”

Ning Ran wanted to pry further, but she was worried about being deemed as a nosy parker if she continued asking. Thus she decided against it.

Ning Ran dropped off the two kids in front of the school. Erbao kissed her on the cheek sweetly to bid farewell, “Goodbye Mommy, see you later.”

“Bye darlings.”

Ning Ran waved her hands, and only returned to the car after seeing them enter the school safely.

After reaching the film set, Ning Ran thanked Wang Cheng and started on her hectic filming schedule. Other than her lunchtime, she had no other time to rest at all.

Finally, her scenes were completed at 6 pm. She heaved a long sigh of relief. Finally! I’m dead beat!

Outside the film set, the car Nan Chen had sent for her had arrived.

This time, it was Qiao Zhan instead of Wang Cheng.

“Hello, Ms. Ding.”

Qiao Zhan was savvier and greeted her as Ms. Ding instead of other various fanciful titles such as ‘Young Mistress’ or ‘Third Madam’ because he knew Ning Ran did not like them.

“Thank you for fetching me, Captain Qiao. I could have taken a cab myself and claim the fare from Sir Chen,” Ning Ran joked.

Qiao Zhan smiled too, “Protecting Ms. Ding, Little Master and Little Miss is the main priority of the Security team.”

“Thank you, Captain Qiao. I’m flattered as I haven’t enjoyed such privileged treatment before.”

“You will get used to it soon. Please contact me directly in the future if you have any requirement. There are a lot of matters that I can settle on my own without alarming Sir Chen and that little eunuch.”

“Little eunuch?”

“Haha, I’m referring to Jiang Zhe.”

Ning Ran’s curiosity was piqued, “Why do you refer to him as a little eunuch?”

“I’m just joking.”

“I’m sure there is a reason. Come on, tell me since we have nothing to do now.”

“I feel that Assistant Jiang is akin to the eunuch serving the emperor in the olden times, as Sir Chen trusts him very much. So, I’m only joking by referring to him as a little eunuch.”

“Sir Chen also places a lot of trust in you. You and Assistant Jiang are the most trustworthy people around him.”

“I cannot match up to that little eunuch. He is too good at talking and reading others’ minds. I am nothing but a boor who can only perform my duty quietly.”

Qiao Zhan curled his lip at the mention of Jiang Zhe.

Actually, Ning Ran also felt that Jiang Zhe was too glib and unlikable. Furthermore, he will be Nan Chen’s main accomplice, if I am to deal with Nan Chen in the future.

Maybe winning over Qiao Zhan will be a good strategy.

“Assistant Jiang is brilliant at work, as he is smooth and slick. But Captain Qiao is loyal and will die to protect one at the most critical moment. You deserve more respect.” Ning Ran declared her support to him.

Her compliments puffed up his ego.

“Thank you for your compliments, Ms. Ding. Your problems are mine in the future. I shall kill whoever offends Ms. Ding!”
