“Erbao, you scared me to death. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have left you all alone at home…”
“I’m sorry, Ding. It’s my fault too. I didn’t take good care of your child,” Ouyang Qing apologized hurriedly at the
side.
“Why did you come in? Get out!” yelled Nan Chen.
Ouyang Qing felt very upset. It’s just an allergy. She didn’t die, anyway. Do you have to treat me like that, Nan
Chen?
“I just brought Ding here and wanted to apologize to her. I’ve wronged both you and your child…”
“I don’t need your apology!” replied Ning Ran coldly.
“I really didn’t expect things to turn out like this. I don’t even know what happened.” Ouyang Qing defended herself
indignantly.
Nan Chen’s fury rose when he heard that. “You still don’t know what happened? Erbao is allergic to nuts, yet you
still allowed her to drink almond milk. Of course she’ll have an allergic reaction!”
“What? You let my daughter drink almond milk? If you’re bringing someone else’s children out, shouldn’t you ask
about their dietary restrictions?”
Ouyang Qing fell silent, her head drooping lower.
Ning Ran seemed to understand what happened.
“Could it be that you deliberately let my daughter drink almond milk while knowing that she can’t take nuts?”
Ouyang Qing quickly waved her hands in denial. “Of course not! There’s no way I’ll do that!”
“You asked me about it before, and I told you everything!” Nan Chen rebuked instantly.
“I really forgot about it. But I really didn’t do it on purpose! Why would I even do something like that?”
“You have ulterior motives! You’re trying to harm my children. I don’t care if you want to marry into the Nan family,
but why are you using my children as tools?” scolded Ning Ran.
A hurt expression crossed Ouyang Qing’s face. “Ding, how can you say that about me? I really didn’t do it on
purpose! Why would I want to harm the children? I’m sorry. Please forgive me!”
“I might forgive you if you hurt me instead. However, since you put my children in danger’s path, I will never forgive
you!” asserted Ning Ran furiously.
“Then, I’ll kneel for forgiveness! I’m really sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose…”
Although Ouyang Qing said that she would kneel, they were just empty words.

It was impossible for her to kneel to Ning Ran. After all, she was the heiress of the wealthy Ouyang family.
Ouyang Qing thought that Ning Ran would refuse her offer to kneel. However, Ning Ran did not buy into her act.
This made things even more awkward. It was impossible for Ouyang Qing to kneel, but if she did not, the situation
would become more embarrassing.
“That’s enough. Get out!” yelled Nan Chen coldly.
If things continued on, there would not be a nice ending.
As this was a hospital ward, it wouldn’t be appropriate to create such a huge ruckus.
Since the incident had already happened, it was meaningless even if Ouyang Qing actually knelt.
However, if they forced Ouyang Qing to kneel just because of this, it would be a blatant disrespect to the Ouyang
family.
At this moment, he could not afford to have a fall out with the Ouyang family.
As Nan Chen was helming the family now, he needed to consider the big picture instead of succumbing to his
impulses.
Knowing that she would be placed in a more embarrassing position if she stayed, Ouyang Qing quickly left the
hospital ward.
“You let her bring the kids out?” Ning Ran stared at Nan Chen.
“Not me. She and the kids had an agreement,” defended Nan Chen quickly.
“If you didn’t allow it, she couldn’t have brought the kids out.”
“The kids were willing to play with her. Grandpa wanted them to be happy, so he let them out. They don’t need to
go to school anyway as it’s the weekends,” explained Nan Chen patiently.
“Did you tell her that Erbao can’t eat nuts?”
“I told her, but she probably forgot.”
“Are you speaking on her behalf? Are you trying to defend her now? Oh, right. You are about to get married
anyway, so you should protect her well,” snapped Ning Ran coldly.
“I’m not getting married with her. It’s just a rumor.”
Nan Chen’s temper was starting to flare too. Ning Ran’s words were getting harsher by the second that he could
not even take a breather.
“Just a rumor? It’s all over the Internet, with a lot of publicity surrounding it. It’s fine if you publicize it, but how
shameless are you to use my children for it? Both you and Ouyang Qing are shameless a*sholes!”
In her agitation, Ning Ran said something that she was not supposed to.
“What did you call me?” Nan Chen’s expression turned cold.
“I didn’t say anything. You’ve heard wrongly.” Ning Ran knew that she had crossed the line.
“Say that again!” yelled Nan Chen furiously.
“I said I didn’t say anything, you must have heard wrongly.”
“What did you say before that?”
“My memory is horrible. I only remember the last thing I said. I forgot what I said earlier. Besides, I’m not a
recorder where you can press the repeat button whenever you like!” snapped Ning Ran disdainfully.
Nan Chen was enraged, but he could not do anything about Ning Ran.
“Next time, take note of your image. Don’t say such vulgar words in front of the children and teach them the wrong
things!”
“We won’t learn anything wrong.” Erbao backed her mother up seriously.
“You too! You know that you’re allergic to nuts, so why did you drink the almond milk?” asked Nan Chen.
“Are you blaming my child? She’s so young, so it’s normal that she’s not sensible enough to know. Ouyang Qing is
the real culprit here!”
As Erbao supported Ning Ran, she naturally had to back Erbao up too.
“I’m educating my child and teaching her how to protect herself. Why are you being so protective?”
“My child is not at fault! The blame should be placed on that vicious woman! Everything is all your fault. If you didn’t
invite her, she won’t even be in the position to bring my kids out to play. Something like this wouldn’t have
happened. Fundamentally, it’s all your fault! All yours!”
Wagging her finger at Nan Chen, Ning Ran reprimanded him.
Erbao made a face. Mommy’s so aggressive! With that, I’m no longer the center of attention. Not bad, Mommy!
Furious, Nan Chen pointed back at Ning Ran. “Is this how you teach your children? How amazing…”
“Thank you for your compliments. I’ve always been amazing! This has always been how I raised my children, but
they’re still so outstanding. So what about it?”
Nan Chen was about to fly into a rage.
“Mommy, that’s probably enough!”
Dabao hinted to her out of goodwill. Don’t go overboard, or you’ll look like an unreasonable woman!

“Look at how you’re behaving now. Even your child can’t stand it anymore!” Nan Chen was so furious that his face
flushed.
“I didn’t say anything wrong, nor did my kids do anything wrong. Ouyang Qing’s the one at fault! She’s not allowed
to bring my children out anymore. She’s a sinister woman with shady motives and a devious heart that tried to
harm my children! She’s nothing but an evil, unscrupulous woman. A fake, hypocritical b*tch!”
“Mommy, what does that mean?” asked Erbao curiously.
Nan Chen looked confused too as he had never heard that phrase before.
“It’s a phrase only adults can use. Children don’t need to know what it means.” Ning Ran decided to give her
daughter a vague answer.
“Didn’t you say that children should learn and apply new knowledge? Since I don’t understand, I should ask.”
Erbao’s curiosity was piqued.
Since Mommy described Ouyang Qing with this phrase, it’s probably something bad.
If that’s the case, I should learn it so I can scold others in the future.
“You don’t need to ask anything further. It doesn’t mean anything.” Dabao chimed in from the side.
Naturally, Dabao knew what the phrase meant. After all, as he was well-versed with the Internet.
Although Nan Chen did not fully grasp the meaning, the words were already so obvious. After mulling over it for a
while, Nan Chen understood.
“Ning Ran, mind your language. As their mother, you shouldn’t curse in front of the children! I know that you’re an
uncivilized woman who doesn’t mind your image. However, you should consider your influence on the children!”
Ning Ran regretted it too. She had a habit of not thinking through her words before uttering them. Often, she would
regret it afterward.
“Darling, what do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.” Ning Ran felt that it was time to change the topic of
conversation.
“Mommy, I want to eat many yummy foods. Can you buy them for me?” Erbao became excited.
“Of course!” Ning Ran would do anything to avoid Nan Chen. In addition to the guilt she felt towards Erbao, she
decided to fulfill all of Erbao’s wishes today.
“That’s great! Mommy, I want to eat cake, egg tarts…” Erbao listed more than a dozen food that she wanted to eat
while Ning Ran nodded, showing that she had noted down everything.
Nan Chen and Dabao frowned at the side. Looks like there’s still a long way to go before Erbao’s diet succeeds.
