Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

The heated topic about Ran Yue and Ran Xueyi reached several media giant platforms. Even the country's biggest news program had to publish a separate article about them. Things were really getting out of hand as the Ran family's two daughters were being used as the country's subject in their morning and afternoon teas.

And just when everyone thought that this issue would at least take a few days to disappear like what happened to other supertopics and other celebrities who were involved in a scandal, Ran Xueyi, however, never disappeared from the trending list.

Because at this time, the PR team of << A Thousand Lotus >> released the names of the actors and actresses who will appear in the drama. Though it wasn't normal for a drama or movie to reveal the cast members of the drama, the PR team of << A Thousand Lotus >> decided that they would take advantage of the free traffic that Ran Xueyi provided to them.

That's right. It was Ran Xueyi who proposed the idea to release the cast list of the drama. That evening Director Zheng called Ran Xueyi about what happened. As the director of the drama she'll appear in, Director Zheng was extremely concerned. Not only because Ran Xueyi was now part of the drama, but also because he was worried about the future of the drama itself. What would happen if this issue affected the drama when it was finally released?

There were several dramas that were held back and even banned from showing up in the TV screens for years and eventually, forever, only because one of the actors were involved in a scandal or the drama itself didn't act in accordance with the rules and regulations of Hua Film Administration.

So, it wasn't surprising if a notice that the drama would be pulled out from the lists of upcoming drama and everything that the planning and managing team had prepared for the drama would be wasted.

However, Ran Xueyi wasn't worried about that. She reassured him that the drama wouldn't be implicated in any way. Rather than it being axed and canceled, they would instead end up getting more heat and popularity.

After hearing what she said, Director Zheng was indeed tempted by this. Who wouldn't want the drama they're working on and directing to become a hit drama in the country? Besides, he felt that Ran Xueyi seemed to have enough confidence in herself... so there must be someone backing her.

As for who was supporting her... Director Zheng didn't need to crack his head to guess who it was.

Feeling excited, Director Zheng called the PR team of the drama and aggressively decided to post the cast members.

And as expected, the numbers of people who followed the drama's newly created page soon turned to a hundred thousand in just under an hour and still counting! A few hours later, the fan page already accumulated a follower of almost a million fans.

Of course, it wasn't only Director Zheng who was nervous about the future of the drama. Those who got accepted for a role in the drama were similarly worried and scared. However, their fears and worries soon turned into anticipation and excitement as they also gained tens of thousands of new fans.

It wasn't only the drama crew who got a huge benefit through this situation. Even Senhe Fashion House, who remained silent after posting Ran Xueyi's ambassadorship for them, got more orders. The fans who visited their main branch store were all sold out and had to close early, and even the official online store wasn't spared. Particularly, the dresses, watches, shoes, and bags that Ran Xueyi wore in that photoshoot were hoarded by her fans and some passersby who deemed the items to be superior and beautiful.

This time, Ran Xueyi's popularity and influence were proven again!

As Ran Xueyi observed the domino effect she intentionally caused, a proud and satisfied smile on her lips appeared. But it didn't last long as she slowly released a sigh.

Song Yu Han, who was sitting on the floor and massaging her calves, noticed it and raised his head. He asked, "Why are you still sighing? Aren't you satisfied with the results?"

Ran Xueyi nodded before pausing and shook her head. "I am and I am also not content with this. I still want them to suffer."

There was no way he wouldn't understand who she referred to as 'them'. It was definitely the Ran and Yang family.

"There are still a lot of opportunities for you to make them suffer. Don't be impatient and wait for them to take a bite first. I'm sure they'll fall into your traps."

Ran Xueyi nodded. She agreed that there was no need for her to rush things so quickly. It was probably because she ate something delicious and forgot how to stop. Thankfully, she had someone to tell her to stop before devouring the whole meal.

The debt they owed her was still not paid fully. She still has a lot to take from them. Last time was only the first and certainly not the last bite.

Ran Xueyi felt the hands that were pressing on her calves, feeling instant relief and couldn't stop herself from sighing again. But her sigh was different and filled with satisfaction. As though he could sense that she was slowly relaxing, Song Yu Han kept pressing until Ran Xueyi spoke above him.

"I remember you said earlier that tomorrow's your grandfather's birthday. What have you prepared for him?"

Song Yu Han's hands didn't stop as he slowly replied, "There's nothing to prepare. He has enough grandchildren and assistants to prepare his birthday. And I already told Guo Yun to send my gift to my grandfather tomorrow."

Ran Xueyi scratched the tip of her nose and said, "Is that really alright? He called you several times earlier. He must badly want to see you on his birthday."

Song Yu Han raised his head and helplessly replied, "If I go tomorrow, we wouldn't be able to go on our date. Between my grandfather and my dear wife... I think I'll choose you in a heartbeat."

Ran Xueyi was worried that he was forced to make this decision and reassured him. "There's really no need for you to choose between us. It's your grandfather. I'll definitely understand if you postpone our date and go to his birthday. We have a lot of time to date anyway."

She didn't think there was a need to compare herself to her grandfather. From what she had seen, it seems that Song Yu Han and Song Yicheng had a closer relationship than she expected. She will feel guilty if she forces him to choose between them.

Surprisingly, Song Yu Han solemnly shook his head and said, "No... I don't agree. Tomorrow is our first date. How can I postpone it? Besides, the following days, you will need to prepare for your drama shoot. If we postpone it now... when will we be able to do our first date?"

After hearing him say that, Ran Xueyi also thought that it was indeed the case. Because the filming date for the drama was nearing, all cast members were required to prepare the things they will need to bring and head to the filming site ahead of time to familiarize themselves with the place before the filming starts.

By that time, Ran Xueyi wouldn't have the time to go out and see him. And Song Yu Han wouldn't be able to come to her either, like the miracle last time, because the place where they will be filming the drama was located in a remote small city next to mountains.

Thus, there really wasn't enough time.

But still, Ran Xueyi was conscious and would also feel guilty if she selfishly took all his time. Especially since it was Old patriarch Song's birthday.

In the end, the two of them agreed to have their date in the morning till noon and by the time evening arrives, Song Yu Han would have to go to his grandfather's party.

...

At the Song family's manor.

An elderly man was sitting in the middle of the study. A table was in front of him and across him was a younger man that looked like he had just graduated high school. On the table, there was a chessboard laid on it and the chess pieces were scattered on it. However, if one were to scrutinize and analyze the game, they would find that the younger man was losing.

The younger man put down a chess piece in his desired position, aiming at the weakness of the opponent.

"You're getting better at playing this game," said the older man before reaching for the knight before placing it right before the opponent's king. "Checkmate."

On the chessboard, the younger man's king was trapped and could no longer move. And with the knight's appearance, he really lost and couldn't make a comeback.

However, the younger man wasn't angry that he lost. Rather, there was a bright smile on his lips as he said, "Grandpa doesn't have to act. Just wait for Han ge to come and beat you in this game."

The older man clicked his tongue before saying, "Tch... do you think I'm afraid of him? I just don't have to play with him and I will never lose to him!"
