Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

James Duan felt extremely embarrassed. In front of Song Yu Han, he really couldn't show his confidence and guts to hit on the beautiful lady he had his sights on since earlier. If it were any other place, he could have done it, but the issue wasn't only about the location, it was also the fact that there was the upright and strict presence of the so-called Cold Emperor of the Business World.

And looking at how Song Yu Han had approached their table and even spoke first before others could, it seems that he and the beautiful lady knew each other before today.

Could James still have the courage to hit on his beloved target tonight?

Though it was such a shame that he didn't get to obtain the result he wanted, James still knew that young master Song was someone who was both obstinate as a monk in a temple, reciting sutras everyday, and a cold-blooded soldier in the middle of a battlefield.

There was no way that the beauty and the young lord from the Song family would have any other kind of relationship other than being business partners.

Thus, even though he was suppressed by the other's magnificent aura and presence, James still hadn't given up his thoughts on targeting Ran Xueyi. He only relocated his plan and put it off for now.

Ran Xueyi felt the guys on her other side were shifting uncomfortably. Perhaps, he was ashamed by Song Yu Han's lack of amiable feelings towards him. But she didn't really care nor tried to make him feel better by giving James her attention.

Song Yu Han seemed to have the same thoughts as her as his gaze finally dropped to the soaked area on her gown.

A frown appeared on his handsome face, making him look even colder and fearful.

"Your dress..."

His voice had just landed when James heard it. Another bouts of shame flashed across his face and said, "Ah, it was my fault. I was going to say hi to this pretty lady. I didn't know that she would turn around and knock my glass over."

James then turned his head to apologize to Ran Xueyi. This time, his voice lacked his previous flirtatious tone and was more polite and sincere.

"I'm really sorry, I ruined your gown. If you please give me your contact number or Wechat ID, I will compensate you for the damage I caused."

James even pulled out his phone and clicked on the familiar Wechat app, ready to scan the other or receive the other's phone number.

His method seemed sincere and all without any other thoughts, but Ran Xueyi knew that James was trying to use this opportunity to add her as a friend and get closer to her. Perhaps, if he succeeded in befriending her, the next step would be imaginable.

Ran Xueyi casted a disgusted look at the phone handed out to her and didn't take it. Because her head was lowered, her expression was obscured and was not seen by anyone else.

On her side, Song Yu Han was silently watching James expend more effort in bringing death closer to his arms.

The coldness and ruthlessness in his eyes were becoming more clearer and resounding that Ran Xueyi shuddered just sitting beside him.

James has been the only one speaking since earlier. He felt that his throat and mouth was starting to dry up.

"Miss, I really have no other intentions. I see that your gown looked expensive, I'm only hoping to pay for the gown since I ruined it..."

"James Duan."

Song Yu Han's voice, like a steel katana, cut the other person from speaking more.

"I remember your father is asking to collaborate with the Song Group in one of our projects..."

James Duan: "...."

Why did he mention his father?

Nevertheless, James Duan felt the overwhelming pressure and also had an insight that something bad was going to happen to his father and the project he was working on. He just couldn't guess what brought things to end like this.

Did he say something wrong?

James Duan was now very scared. He had forced his way to the Song family's party using Qi Yan and the bet he won from him. His real purpose for coming here was to deepen his connection with the other scions from great and wealthier families in the country who were present in that party.

If he succeeded in taking the notice of other people and ended up befriending them, his position in his father's eyes would significantly increase and he could again contend against his other siblings who were vying for the Duan family's inheritance.

More than that, there was also the possibility of him being included to more important events and gatherings, spreading his wings even further in the country.

He didn't even get to say anything as Song Yu Han continued to speak with his imposing and deep voice: "If you still want your father to succeed, remember, Ran Xueyi is not someone you can touch."

...

James didn't know when he returned to his original seat which was at Qi Yan's table. He also didn't know how he got up and walked his way out from that table. However, he only knew how much of a fright he received tonight in just a span of a few minutes.

His friends, or more precisely, Qi Yan's friends and family, saw James sitting back in his chair and they couldn't help but send him a glance.

Just now, they also saw the young master from the Song family approach the table James had gone to earlier, he also managed to strike a conversation with the cold young master. At this point, they couldn't help but wonder what they talked about and if he somehow succeeded in befriending Song Yu Han.

Some of them were even feeling envious of this once in a lifetime situation and wished they went along with James earlier. If they had, wouldn't they also share the same fate as James and talk with Song Yu Han?

Hearing their ceaseless questions, one would think that James met a saint and received blessings from him.

It was just that no one knew that James didn't receive any blessings from anyone.

Rather, he received a warning.

A very scary and heart-pounding threat he couldn't ignore.
