Chapter 848 No Way We Can Cut Ties

After completing her work, Ning Ran met Nan Xing for lunch.

There was nothing much to eat near Star Entertainment, so Ning Ran found a café. The moment Nan Xing walked

into the café, his face was filled with disdain.

“Ning Ran, my dear sister-in-law, it's not often that you invite me for a meal. Is this the best place we can go to?”

Ning Ran glared at him before saying, “Although this place is not posh, the food is still quite tasty. Just make do with

it. We're here for a discussion and not only for the food.”

“If you have something to discuss with me, then you should bring me to a better restaurant. How can you tell me to

make do with this?” Nan Xing did not seem pleased.

“You talk too much. If you aren't interested in eating here, then shall we have our discussion by the roadside?”

There was nothing Nan Xing could do at that point. “Fine. We'll eat here.”

Without asking Nan Xing what he wanted to eat, Ning Ran went ahead and made the order.

“There's something important that I need your help with. You have to promise me that you will give it your best

shot,” said Ning Ran with a serious face.

Nan Xing began to panic. “Why can't you ask my brother to do it? If even he can't do it, then I'll be worse off. I

refuse!”

The instant Ning Ran heard his rejection, she became anxious. “I haven't even told you what it is. Why do you turn

me down so quickly?”

“I won't do it. Anything that you need help with must be something tough to handle. I'm a useless person, so I won't

be able to help you. It's better that you ask my brother instead!”

“There's no way Nan Chen would be able to do this!”

“If he can't do it, then surely I won't be able to! There's no way I will do it!”

“What kind of attitude is this? How did you address me just now?” asked Ning Ran as she pointed at Nan Xing.

“What, can't I call you my sister-in-law?”

“Have you heard the saying that your elder brother is like your father, and your elder sister-in-law is like your

mother?”

“No! I have never heard of such things!”

“Well then, today you have! I'm your elder. Therefore, you will have to respect me and do as I say!” Ning Ran

regarded him condescendingly.

Scowling, Nan Xing huffed, “If I knew you'd do this, I wouldn't have come!”

“But, you're already here, so you have to accept the fact. Besides, if you didn't come, wouldn't I just go to you? How

could you reject me immediately when I have yet to tell you what it is about? What kind of attitude is this? Don't

think that I won't tell Nan Chen about your disrespectful attitude toward me.”

“I'm not disrespectful toward you. I just—”

“Listen to me. This is something you can accomplish. It isn't difficult at all. You aren't allowed to say no to me!”

roared Ning Ran as she pointed at Nan Xing with her chopsticks.

“Ning Ran, it's very rude to point at someone with your chopsticks, even if it's at me!”

She put her cutlery down. “I know it isn't polite to do so, but you made me anxious. Anyway, do you have a

girlfriend?”

At that instant, Nan Xing was delighted to hear that. “Ning Ran, are you planning to introduce a girl to me?”

“I asked you if you have a girlfriend.”

Nan Xing gave her question a thought before replying, “I'm fooling around with a few girls, but I don't consider

them to be my girlfriends.”

“During this period, stop seeing those girls even if you aren't serious about them,” said Ning Ran.

“Why?”

“Because you now have a serious relationship with a girl.”

“Who? How come I know nothing about this? Ning Ran, are you the one who arranged this?”

She nodded. “Yes.”

With that, a smile appeared on Nan Xing's face. “This is going to be interesting. So, the thing that you need me to

do is to get a girlfriend?”

“Yes! Am I not good to you?”

“Well, you are. But, is she pretty?” Nan Xing hesitated.

Ning Ran showed him a thumbs-up. “She's a gorgeous babe!”

Nan Xing's eyes lit up at that. “Really? How is she compared to you?”

“She's even prettier than me!” Ning Ran thought about it and continued, “She's probably one level above me!”

Nan Xing smacked himself. “That's great! What does she do for work? Let me take a look at her photo first!”

“She's a designer and an internationally-renowned one at that. She has received several awards. There you go. This

is her photo.”

Ning Ran took out her phone and searched for Lu Jingyuan's photos before showing them to Nan Xing.

He took one look and found her very familiar. “Isn't this beautiful woman the lady boss of that inn in Livingsfill?”

“Boss will suffice. There's no need to call her lady boss. Yes, you have met her before,” Ning Ran corrected him.

“Ning Ran, are you pulling my leg? This woman has a grudge against me. She doesn't like me, and I don't like her as

well,” grumbled Nan Xing with a frown.

“What grudge do the both of you have against one another? You went and chatted her up but got rejected. That's

all. How can you call that a grudge? As a man, you shouldn't be so petty. Aren't you embarrassed?” said Ning Ran.

With that, Nan Xing became agitated. “That wasn't what happened! She was the one being unreasonable! Ning

Ran, whose side are you on?”

Ning Ran shrugged in response. “It's very obvious, isn't it? I'm on her side. Can't you tell?”

“Then what are you trying to do? Why are you introducing her to me all of a sudden?”

Not wanting to lie to him any longer, Ning Ran went straight to the point.

“She has gotten into a lot of trouble because of us. Her family has forced her to leave Livingsfill and go to the

capital. Every day, she is forced to attend boring matchmaking sessions, but she isn't interested in those rich men.

In order for her to leave the capital, she wants to lie to her family and tell them she is going away to see her

boyfriend. Get it?”

Nan Xing was too stunned to say a word.

“Are you all right? Did you not understand what I just said?” Ning Ran snapped.

“That's not it. It doesn't sound like you are getting me a girlfriend. Instead, it's more like you are looking for a

boyfriend for her,” said Nan Xing with an aggrieved expression.

“What's the difference?”

“How is it the same? You're just trying to get someone to pretend to be her boyfriend to let her leave the capital.

Honestly, why don't you just hire an actor for her!”

“Wow, you have such a good understanding of the story. You're certainly Master Xing!” With that, Ning Ran gave

him a thumbs-up.

“I'll pay for this meal, but I'm not doing you this favor! No way!” Nan Xing exclaimed as he stood up.

Ning Ran pointed to his chair and commanded, “Sit down!”

“No! I refuse!” shouted Nan Xing.

“You're going to do this for me no matter what! Have I ever asked anything of you before this?”

Nan Xing thought for a while before answering, “I don't think so.”

“Then, why can't you help me out with this one thing? Do I mean nothing to you?” questioned Ning Ran.

“Ning Ran, that's a separate matter. If it were really your problem, I would do everything I can to help you—”

“This is my problem! If you refuse to help me, then we shall cut ties from now on!” With that, Ning Ran slammed

the table.

That gave Nan Xing a shock. “Cut ties?”

“Yes!”

“We are family—not friends. How can you cut ties with me?”

“Since you can't even help me out with such a simple thing, then don't even think about being friends with me. We

will cut ties!” Ning Ran continued with her threat.

“Ning Ran, why are you so unreasonable?”

“I don't care!”

“Fine!” Nan Xing also smacked the table. “There's no way I can cut ties with you. I agree to help you with this

matter, but I have a request.”

The moment Ning Ran saw that her threat had worked, she let out a sigh of relief. “What kind of request? Tell me.”

“I want to speak to Lu... Lu...”

“Lu Jingyuan!”

“I want to speak to Lu Jingyuan in person. Is that okay?”

“She's still in the capital. You will have to pretend to be her boyfriend and bring her over here before you can talk to

her in person.”

“Is this matter risky? Ning Ran, be honest with me.”

Ning Ran thought about the matter and said, “I doubt it. Even if it's risky, you'll still have to do it!”
