Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2081 - 2070: Nannan's Origins

"What else can we do? We can't possibly kick her out."Xu Ruolan continued, "Besides, I've been around Su Meiniang for so long, I know she doesn't have any ill intentions."

Ning Fan flattered, "Anyway, everything in this house is decided by the wife."

"By the way, I heard from Xiaoqing that Vivian is from the Divine Realm. Is there really a Divine Realm?"

Ning Fan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Are you sure we want to talk about this here?"

"Oh, you're so annoying!"

Watching Xu Ruolan's face turn red, Ning Fan said earnestly, "Wife, what nonsense are you thinking? I'm trying to discuss serious matters with you."

"So annoying, so annoying!"

Under her playful punches, Ning Fan fled to the big bed in a flurry.

...

"Wife, we should get up."

"No."

"Not going to work today?"

"No."

Xu Ruolan continued in a lazy tone, not wanting to move at all, just wanting to lie in the comfortable bed.

"Then you rest a bit, I'll go out and take a look."

"Hubby, don't leave."

Xu Ruolan turned over, hugged Ning Fan's neck, and whispered close to his ear, "Just stay here and lie quietly with me for a while."

"But..."

Ning Fan smiled wryly, afraid that if he lay there too long, by the time he got up, even the house would be gone.

A little Fox Spirit, a dragon from the Divine Realm, and a reckless sister-in-law.

With such a combination, who knows what kind of power might erupt.

"Hubby, I know what you're worried about."

Xu Ruolan squinted her sleepy eyes and continued, "Don't you think it might be better to let them get used to each other? After all, there's so much time ahead."

"I hadn't thought of that. You're right, let's leave it to them."

After kissing Xu Ruolan lightly, Ning Fan said softly, "Wife, handle the company matters, and try to free up some time."

"That's no problem. But..."

"I want to take you all to see a place."

Ning Fan was referring to the Hundred Flowers Valley.

He had wanted to bring up this plan for a long time but never found the right opportunity. Yesterday's events created the perfect chance.

Whether for living or cultivation, the Hundred Flowers Valley is a top choice.

Once they visit the Hundred Flowers Valley, Ning Fan can persuade Xu Ruolan to gradually let go of worldly affairs and focus on cultivation.

"Now that you mention it, we haven't traveled in a while. Let me sort out the company matters."

Xu Ruolan is a smart woman. She knew there was more to Ning Fan's words but didn't press for details.

"By the way, why haven't I seen Nannan?"

"You, the older brother, don't care about your sister at all. You didn't even mention her when you got back."

"I was wrong."

Ning Fan shifted gears, teasing, "It's all because wife, you're too charming."

"Oh, you're terrible!"

"Ignoring you now."

It was only then that Ning Fan realized Nannan had joined a school-organized autumn excursion, accompanied by his father-in-law acting as a guardian.

At that moment, Ning Fan's heart stirred, and he tentatively asked, "Wife, are you afraid of ghosts?"

Now that there were two Fairies at home, it also seemed right for Xu Ruolan to know Nannan's true identity.

"I haven't done anything guilty, so why should I fear ghosts?"

She said, then suddenly realized, surprised, "Hubby, could there really be ghosts in this world?"

"Of course there are."

Xu Ruolan said softly, "Then again, since Fairies appeared, having ghosts doesn't seem odd."

"Remember Mary I mentioned yesterday?"

"Vivian's recognized sister." Xu Ruolan exclaimed, "She's a ghost!"

"Yes."

Ning Fan nodded, revealing Mary's true identity.

After hearing it all, Xu Ruolan wiped her nose and said, "That's so sad."

"She is indeed quite pitiful. Luckily, she found redemption and didn't fall into becoming an evil spirit."

Ning Fan then briefly introduced the nature of ghosts.

"Hubby, I understand everything you've said. Just like how people can be good or bad, so too can ghosts."

"Right, exactly."

"And then?"

Ning Fan was puzzled, "And then what?"

"Hubby, you wouldn't bring this up for no reason. I believe you have something important to tell me?"

Xu Ruolan suspiciously said, "Is this going to turn into a scene from a ghost love story? Where is Mary?"

She even looked around the room, as if a female ghost was lurking in some corner.

"Wife, you're wronging me. I really have nothing with Mary. She has a lover."

Xu Ruolan doubted, "Are you sure? Isn't she a ghost? How can she have a lover? You mean an ex-boyfriend, right?"

"Not an ex, but a current one."

"Current?" Xu Ruolan was stunned, then asked excitedly, "Does he know Mary's identity?"

"He knows."

"Oh my god. That's unbelievable. It's like a real-life saga of ghost romance."

Seeing Xu Ruolan's thrilled expression, Ning Fan muttered to himself, "They aren't really a ghostly romance, at most a human-ghost relationship. He might not even be human."

Ning Fan distinctly remembered that Mary once said Bick wasn't an ordinary person and seemed to be a Beast Soul Warrior.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been transported to Middle Earth.

"That's so romantic!"

Watching Xu Ruolan cradling her heart, Ning Fan truly couldn't understand women's thought processes.

"Wife, wake up, I'm talking about serious stuff."

"Okay, tell me."

Xu Ruolan asked again, "Do you know any other friendly ghosts?"

Ning Fan was surprised, "How do you know?"

"It's not hard to guess! Otherwise, why would you suddenly bring up Mary? Quick, tell me who it is. Maybe I even know them."

"You do know them."

"Really!"

Seeing Xu Rulan's excited expression, Ning Fan was a bit alarmed, "Wife, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, just a bit excited because I haven't actually seen what ghosts look like."

Ning Fan shook his head privately; he never knew Xu Ruolan was so curious.

"Wife, calm down first, I'm worried the truth might scare you."

"It won't."

Even though she said so, Xu Ruolan obeyed Ning Fan's instructions and took deep breaths.

"Hubby, just tell me. I'm prepared and promise I won't be scared."

"Nannan!"

"Hubby, didn't I say Nannan went on a field trip..."

Xu Ruolan stopped herself and stared blankly at Ning Fan.

Ning Fan nodded, "Yes. Nannan is a ghost."

"But... but she's just a normal child."

"It's my fault, wife, I shouldn't have kept it from you."

"No... I'm not blaming you."

Xu Ruolan shook her head, trying to calm down.

Seeing Ning Fan watching her nervously, Xu Ruolan smiled to reassure him, "Hubby, don't overthink it. I'm not scared, just surprised."

"Really not scared?"

"If it were someone else, I might be scared. As for Nannan..."
