Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Soon after the four ran away from Xuan Yi's room, Ran Xueyi instructed them to find the kitchen and stay away from any mirror or cameras. Though she made sure to tell them beforehand, when they arrived at a hallway, several mirrors were hanging by the wall, making it really difficult for them to pass through it without being seen.

"Why are we hiding from the mirror? Isn't the CCTV dangerous enough?" Xuan Yi couldn't understand why they had to hide from the mirrors. They're harmless, okay?

Ran Xueyi wanted to ignore her and continue running, but Xuan Yi might continue asking questions if she didn't answer. And so, she said, "The mirrors by the wall are all two-way mirrors that are just decorations but in truth, it's just another way to monitor our movements."

"What? Didn't that man tell us that there's no camera?" Xuan Yi was shocked.

Ran Xueyi rolled her eyes. "If you believe anything that man says, it wouldn't even be a wonder why you got their attention first."

Xuan Yi was annoyed by her words but since she depended on Ran Xueyi's group to escape this place, she could only glare at her.

"Move..."

Suddenly, a deep and husky voice sounded from above her. When Xuan Yi raised her head, she saw the handsome man who had been tagging along with Ran Xueyi looking at her with narrowed eyes.

"What?" Xuan Yi dumbly asked.

"Move your eyes. Don't glare at her if you still want your eyes in your socket."

Song Yu Han warned her with a smile that wasn't a smile.

Shuddering a little, Xuan Yi wondered why she thought that this man was handsome and a little bit heroic. Surely, he's the villain here right?

Who would actually ask somebody to move their gaze and not stare at somebody while threatening them tht he would remove their eyes from them?

"This man... who is he? Is he really your assistant, Ran Xueyi?"

Xuan Yi couldn't help but whisper to her.

Ran Xueyi didn't glance at her as she replied, "My husband."

Xuan Yi: "....WHAT?"

"Shh! Don't talk so loudly. Do you want to be found and dragged to that man again?" Ran Xueyi glared at her this time. "Let me tell you this first; don't ask, don't say anything. I'm robbing that right from you right now. Unless you want to stay here for three days with these bastards, don't do anything that could raise their attention towards us."

Xuan Yi had so many questions to ask her. But she could only swallow them down her throat since she wanted to escape. No matter how ridiculous and unbelievable the situation they were in right now, Xuan Yi didn't want to go back and be done by that man in her room just because she didn't like how rude and harsh Ran Xueyi spoke to her.

The four crouched on an unguarded corner and stopped just in time for a guard and a maid carrying a tray of refreshment walking across the connecting hallway.

Fortunately, Xuan Yi shut up as soon as Ran Xueyi warned her and they weren't seen.

"Let's go."

Song Yu Han quickly took the front and guided them. However, contrary to what Ran Xueyi expected him to do, he walked on the hallway as if he was on a runway, so relaxed and lazy to care about the mirrors.

And she had even bothered warning them about it.

"What?"

Song Yu Han turned when he felt that nobody was following his footsteps.

Ran Xueyi: "The mirror..."

Song Yu Han: "It doesn't matter. With all four of us walking, it'll be weird if nobody finds us. Besides, the floor is dirty."

So, the main reason he strayed from the plan and didn't want to crouch on the ground was because it was dirty.

Ran Xueyi gave up trying to stop Song Yu Han from raising any alarm for the enemy to find them. In any case, the sudden disappearance of Xuan Yi and the man they knocked out must have been discovered by the organizer already.

"Let's go faster then."

Ran Xueyi followed her husband and threw away her vigilance. If something happened and they were caught, she can just rely on him for the defense and offense of their group. Of course, she would help him by cheering behind him.

On their way to the kitchen, they encountered a few guards and butlers who were passing in the hallway. When they tried to resist, Song Yu Han knocked them out quickly before they could even scream or report to the head admin. As for the maids who were busy serving the wealthy guests, Ran Xueyi also took care of them and threw them inside a restroom after taking their uniforms.

Due to their quick actions, they entered the kitchen quickly.

Nobody suspected them because they were dressed in maid's outfit except for Song Yu Han, whose tall figure and handsome face was too eyecatching to be ignored

"Why are you guys still here? Don't you have work and people to serve?" The head cook noticed the group and scolded them. "Don't tell me, you are trying to avoid the guests and afraid to serve them? Don't worry, Mr. Qing told the guests to not touch any of the employees in this villa."

The head cook knew what kind of people they're serving in the villa so naturally these maids and butlers also knew about their intentions. So many maids and butlers were scared of making mistakes or catching any attention to themselves. Who would want to be tortured by these people anyway?

Thankfully, they were only there to serve them food and clean the place, not please and satisfy all their curiosity and orders.

But wait... why are these people so good looking? Were there such people employed in the villa?

"You guys..."

Seeing the light flash in the head cook's eyes, Song Yu Han thought that their disguise was discovered and stealthily moved to grab a knife which was placed on the counter behind him.

He had already grabbed the hilt and was ready to use it when Ran Xueyi placed her hand on his shoulder and shook her head.

"Are you guys new?" the head cook asked them.

Ran Xueyi instantly nodded her head and smiled sweetly at the head cook: "Yes, we were part of the batch that just recently got employed."

There were indeed some people who were recently employed there so the head cook didn't suspect anything. However...

"Then, what are you all doing here? Shouldn't you be at the service station and not in the kitchen?"

Adelle felt a drop of her sweat dripping on her neck. She wanted to wipe it, but for fear that she would become suspicious, she could only bite her tongue. Why was this person asking so many questions? Didn't he have something to cook?

Ran Xueyi once again made use of her acting skill and her face quickly changed into a grim expression.

She moved slightly closer to the head cook and gestured for him to get his head close to her.

The head cook was curious about what she wanted to say and obediently lowered his head to listen.

Then, he heard the maid whisper beside his ear: "Don't tell this to anyone else... But we were ordered to find someone. It seems that one of the people who were brought here this morning escaped."

The head cook knew about this matter because he got the call reporting an escapee.

"Mr. Qing ordered you to look for that person? But I never noticed anyone entering the kitchen. You should go somewhere else." The head cook didn't doubt the maid's words at all. Looking at the way she wanted to keep this matter hidden, it seems that they were really ordered by Mr. Qing to secretly look for that escapee without raising alarm towards the other guests.

Ran Xueyi shook her head, "I trust the head cook's words. But you must know how strict Mr. Qing is. We must check every crook and cranny in the villa or else, if that person escapes, it's our head who will roll on the ground."

The head cook was still hesitating. He has been in the kitchen since this morning and he didn't see anyone suspicious entering the area he reigned. He even reported it to Mr. Qing earlier. But it seems that the boss was not assured by this and sent a group to check the area. And it didn't seem like the maid lied to her with her dark expression and sneaky actions.

With this, the head cook could only give up the idea of throwing them outside. Anyway, after a check, they will leave immediately.

"Alright, you can look around, but don't touch anything!" The head cook gave them permission to enter and do as they pleased.

Ran Xueyi thanked the head cook and dragged everybody else in the back kitchen where there was an exit that would lead them to a greenhouse. The only thing that Mr. Qing, the organizer, did the wrong thing by giving them a map of the villa in their rooms.

Now, Ran Xueyi had already memorized every part of the villa.

After they left the kitchen, the head cook who was feeling good for helping a fellow employee to do their job noticed that a knife and a gas lighter in the kitchen was missing.

"Huh? Where's my knife?"
