Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Chapter 771

Nan Chen stood up, stretched his sore waist, and asked, “You think she looks familiar, too?”

“I thought her eyes looked familiar the first time I saw her, but it wasn't familiar in terms of appearance. I'm talking about the hatred and malice in her eyes. There aren't many people who hate me that much, not even Ouyang Qing. She looks at me with jealousy, not hatred. However, it's impossible as she has died in that forest. How about you? When did you start suspecting her? Which part of her do you find familiar?” asked Ning Ran.

Initially, Nan Chen wanted to say it was her scent.

As his sense of smell was more acute compared to the average person, someone's scent was usually the first trait he perceived.

I felt her scent was familiar the first time I saw her, but that was it. I don't have a deep impression of it, so I can't identify why it was familiar.

One would only remember details of people who were important to them, but as that woman was unimportant to Nan Chen, he didn't have any special memories regarding her scent.

Hence, all he could think of was that she smelled familiar, and that was until someone infiltrated the Ning residence when he and Ning Ran visited the place that day.

The person was a woman whose scent smelled familiar, and that was when the scent reminded Nan Chen of someone.

However, he couldn't possibly tell Ning Ran that he thought the person's scent was familiar, for she would be displeased.

Therefore, he could only come up with another reason and replied, “Her figure, tone of voice, and name.”

“Name?”

“Yes. Ding Mi was once your stage name, and she also used Ding as her surname. I suspect that when she was coming up with a fake name, she subconsciously mimicked you, so her fake surname is also Ding. Secondly, her name is Fei too.”

“So, Ding Fei is Luo Fei.”

Nan Chen nodded. “But we don't have evidence to prove she's Luo Fei yet.”

“I don't think we need evidence. She's definitely Luo Fei. No one else other than her hates me that much. How can a random stranger hate me that much? No one can love or hate another person for no reason. There's a reason for everything.”

“So Luo Fei changed her appearance. That's not hard with how advanced plastic surgery is now. But it's unimaginable that she managed to survive the dense forest,” Nan Chen commented.

Suddenly, Ning Ran recalled something, and her face fell. “You said you recognized Luo Fei due to her figure? You're familiar with her figure? Oh, that makes sense because she used to be your girlfriend. Of course, you're familiar with her body!”

Nan Chen didn't want to mention her scent because he knew Ning Ran would get mad, but he didn't expect his casual remark regarding her figure would get him in trouble too.

“Her figure is not the same as her body. I'm talking about her behavior and the way she carries herself. Although her face is completely different from before, she can't change her demeanor because it's a habit that's formed over time. Moreover, her face looks stiff. It's obvious that she has undergone plastic surgery. That is also one of the reasons I suspect her.”

Eager to explain himself, Nan Chen rambled on, but he realized his words didn't sound convincing.

“That means you're very familiar with her habits. Right, you two used to live together every day. Of course, you're familiar.”

“Can you stop being unreasonable? We didn't live together every day. Heck, we didn't even live together for one day,” clarified Nan Chen in a panic.

“She's your girlfriend. How could you have never lived with her?” Ning Ran raised her voice.

“She's only my girlfriend in name. I thought she was you, so I gave her more resources, but I never lived with her.”

“Really?” Ning Ran demanded, her arms akimbo.

“Yes!” Nan Chen declared firmly.

Only after replying, he sensed something was wrong.

Who is she to interrogate me? Weren't we talking about something else? How did we end up on this topic?

“Hey! Watch your tone!” Nan Chen snapped.

“What's wrong with my tone? Where were we?”

Nan Chen was livid. “You're being unreasonable. We were talking about Ding Fei, and then you went off on a tangent!”

“Oh, then let's return to the topic at hand. That means Luo Fei didn't die. Instead, she did plastic surgery and turned into someone else. Then, she returned with a large amount of capital, planning to destroy me for revenge. But where did she get all that money? She even filmed movies and financially

supported Ouyang Li. How did she earn so much money this fast? I thought it was hard to earn money. How did she do it?”

Nan Chen shook his head. “Wealth takes time to accumulate. It's impossible for her to get so much money in such a short time. The person supporting her gave her the money.”

“Then who's backing her? Who is rich enough to do that?”

“Ruan Anxi.”

“Who's Ruan Anxi?” Ning Ran asked in confusion.

“He's a famous but highly mysterious person from South East Aploth. I heard he's the illegitimate son of someone from a royal family who graduated from a notable university. However, he has been meddling in shady business for a long time and has made a name for himself. He's known to be ruthless, and his connections spread all across the underworld of various countries in South East Aploth. Last year, multiple countries from South East Aploth joined hands to crack down on his businesses, and he vanished afterward. I heard all this from Qiao Zhan. I'm not very familiar with him as he dabbles in shady businesses, and I only do legal ones. After all, we hold different beliefs, so we take different paths,” Nan Chen explained.

“Then, how do you know he's the one backing Ding Fei?”

“That kidnapper who kidnapped Lu Jingyuan last time gave me a bank account. I asked someone to investigate it and found that someone from M Nation had opened the account. Then, Qiao Zhan looked into it and discovered that the owner was one of Ruan Anxi's high-ranking subordinates. That explains why Ding Fei has so much money to support Ouyang Li, for Ruan Anxi needed a channel to launder money,” Nan Chen replied with a worried look.

“That means Ding Fei has found someone powerful and vicious to help her, or I should say, Ruan Anxi is using Ding Fei to create a new channel for money laundering.”

“Now that he lost so many of his men, he will not let things slide just like that. Qiao Zhan said he is merciless, so he will definitely exact revenge. We must be careful.”

“Why is Luo Fei always around? She's harmed me countless times, and now she even found someone dangerous to deal with us. I wonder if Qiao Zhan can get in touch with Ruan Anxi. I want to meet him!”

“Why do you want to meet him?” Nan Chen asked in shock.

“I want to explain to him that Ding Fei was the cause of his men's death. It has nothing to do with us.”

Nan Chen shot her a look before replying, “How can you be so naive? Someone like him can't be reasoned with.”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
