Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 654: Chapter 667: The Observer Gets Confused

Sometimes, those involved are blinded by the situation.

The meal was quite lively, mainly because of Xiao Xiao and Lin Junyang’s dynamic. Whenever the two of them were together, it was bound to be lively.

Sun Wangbei mentioned the film investment matter. The two people who had tried to bully An Ran and Xiao Xiao yesterday realized they had messed with the wrong people. Even though they got a good beating from Lin Junyang, this afternoon they contacted Sun Wangbei’s assistant. Both parties invested an additional fifty million each and stated that it was a free investment.

”Heh, this Niu Zhong and Xin Wenchao are quite perceptive,” Lin Junyang mocked.

”Although Niu Zhong’s character is lacking, he’s managed to establish himself in Nan’an’s real estate industry for many years, which shows some perceptiveness. Xin Wenchao’s skills are shallow, but Dad Xin is an old fox,” Mu Xingfeng commented from the side.

”So, Second Brother, what do you think we should do about this? I’ll listen to you. If you think this matter can’t be let go, we’ll deal with them, regardless of whether they’re big shots in Nan’an or not.”

Sun Wangbei knew An Ran held a significant place in Mu Xingfeng’s heart. When the other party approached him this afternoon, he didn’t give a definitive answer and even had his assistant turn them away.

Since they had bullied Second Brother’s people, Sun Wangbei left the decision to Mu Xingfeng.

An Ran picked up a piece of food and placed it in Mu Xingfeng’s bowl. ”I think we should let it go. After all, no real harm was done. Junyang also stood up for us yesterday. Since they are now willing to give Young Master Sun additional investment, and it’s free, why not accept it?”

The production cost of ”Zong Xiao” had just increased by a hundred million, which was a good thing.

She mainly felt that since Sun Wangbei’s next film would still be shot in Nan’an, punishing those two people would definitely have a big impact on the crew. Plus, they’d need to find new investors, and she didn’t want to cause her brothers any trouble.

Mu Xingfeng looked at the little girl’s bright eyes and finally nodded, ”Since your sister-in-law says not to pursue this, let’s leave it at that. But make sure to tell them that I’ve made a note of this. If it happens again, there won’t be a place for them in Nan’an City.”

”Got it, Second Brother, I know what to do,” Sun Wangbei replied.

They chatted until nearly nine o’clock before dispersing.

The school gates lock at nine-thirty, so Xiao Xiao had to return to her dormitory no matter what. Lin Junyang, who had to return to the Guard Team, insisted on giving Xiao Xiao a ride, even though everyone knew their directions were completely opposite.

After having some drinks, Sun Wangbei was directly taken back to the hotel by his assistant.

For a moment, the house was left with only two people again.

An Ran grabbed her pajamas and was about to take a shower when her phone suddenly rang. She picked up the phone and gestured for Mu Xingfeng to shower first.

When she looked down, she saw it was a call from An Youcai.

”Hello, Ran, it’s Dad,” came An Youcai’s hoarse voice when she answered the call.

”Mhm,” An Ran responded. Maybe it was something Sijia said this afternoon, but hearing An Youcai’s voice, An Ran suddenly felt that if there was anyone in the family who still had feelings for her, it was this adoptive father.

Hearing An Ran’s voice gave An Youcai a little surprise. He thought that after everything that happened, his daughter was completely gone. He didn’t expect she would answer his call and talk to him.

”Ran, are you doing well now? Dad just transferred some money to your account. I know maybe you don’t need Dad’s money anymore, but I still want to give it to you. In the past, Dad was too weak and let you suffer a lot. Now that you’re away from Dad and have found a man you love, Dad is happy for you. Just remember, no matter how wealthy he is, you must live with dignity.”
