Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Ran Xueyi listened carefully to what Song Yu Han uncovered on Bei Honglin and Li Na's true relationship. As it turns out, Bei Honglin had already met Li Na in the past even before he even became her manager. However, he had no recollection of it. For Li Na's appearance had changed drastically over the years.

Ran Xueyi swept her gaze at the medical records of the actress. She had rhinoplasty, double-eyelid surgery, and jawline contouring surgeries. Li Na's past accounts of surgeries were too many, but due to having a great plastic surgeon, the change was not too obvious and people would assume her as a 'natural beauty'.

She remembered that Adelle mentioned that Li Na was also called a national treasure for having a beauty that was not at all touched with a knife. The actress didn't admit or deny this, and silently accepted all the praises. And in the end, Li Na achieved what she wanted. She was awarded as a Best Actress of the Year in the Spring Film Festival Awards after only being in the industry for 4 years. Her popularity and value also shot up to a height that some actors in the industry had to achieve in a couple of years.

Song Yu Han lifted his wine glass and took a small sip. His voice was deep and masculine as he said, "Bei Honglin might have not suspected anything yet. Li Na did very well in using her acting skill in fooling him."

Ran Xueyi fell into contemplation but then smiled. "Bei Honglin was chased by the loan sharks who demanded he pay what he owes them. Half of it was already poured into his gambling and the other half was stolen away. Now, he must be working hard to repay all his debts… What would happen if he didn't pay his debt?"

"He will lose a hand. But he owed them a hundred million so he will probably lose one of his kidneys as well." Song Yu Han didn't tell Ran Xueyi that Bei Honglin will also lose an eye and will be forced to continue repaying his debts until his death. This kind of circumstances were repeated numerously that the warning about loaning from a shady money-lending company was not ungrounded.

Even though he had basically lived most of his years in the Underworld, Song Yu Han knew how dangerous things are in their world. Bei Honglin's outcome is just the tip of the mountain.

After enjoying their meal together, Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han safely left the restaurant through the back entrance. The reporters outside of the front entrance of the restaurant still hasn't left so it would be unwise for them to use it.

Inside the car, Song Yu Han glanced at the horde of reporters camping outside of the restaurant and frowned in displeasure. "Sorry, I seem to have picked the wrong restaurant."

Ran Xueyi shook her head. "No, it's alright. I'm used to it. Besides, they didn't come for me and their food was great." She paused and remembered something. "Speaking of which, I might have to use you for a bit, hubby."

Hearing her, Song Yu Han turned his head and tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. "What do you want?" he raised his brows at her.

Ran Xueyi smiled. She recounted what had happened outside of the restaurant. She told him about her unexpected encounter with a man called Mr. He, and how he made his bodyguard escort her inside. It wasn't a big deal, but she just didn't want to be involved in an unfair situation.

After listening to her story, Song Yu Han's eyes darkened. But still, he agreed to help Ran Xueyi. Later, he told Guo Yun to search for a man named He Gui and report back to him immediately.

Later that night, what Ran Xueyi had been afraid about soon came true. Adelle called her before midnight to tell her that there were some people who wanted to buy a Weibo topic about her and a mysterious man. The topic questions her relationship with this unknown man.

At the same time, Song Yu Han also heard the same reports from Guo Yun. The special assistant was expressionless when he video called his big boss, but deep inside, he was panicking. Thankfully, he quickly stopped the platform from letting this news come out to the public. The platform didn't lack any tact as well. They immediately blocked the contact of the person who had wanted to push the topic between Ran Xueyi and a mysterious man in the hot topic list.

However, the platform's president couldn't help but wonder about Ran Xueyi's relationship with the chairman of YH group? The right-hand man of the chairman personally called his private number to not let a topic that could lead to a heated discussion in the platform come out. Is it to protect the actress Ran Xueyi?

Yi Bo, the owner of the platform, didn't want to delve into this matter. Out of sight, out of mind. He didn't want to assume anything about the relationship of YH's chairman who was also the favorite grandson of Old Patriarch Song.

On one hand, he didn't want to offend the great Song family. And on the other hand, he certainly didn't dare become Song Yu Han's enemy.

When Ran Xueyi heard what happened the next morning, she was not affected at all. The reporters outside of the restaurant were too many, there should be a few of them who noticed her and took photos of her. They must have assumed that she was the paramour of Mr. He.

But Ran Xueyi didn't have any time to care about this. She had already asked Song Yu Han to take care of this since she couldn't overwork Uncle Wu, who was already taking the matters of Yao Chuan in his hand. There was only a few days before the start of filming for her new film, and she was going to act alongside Song Yu Han.

However, when Ran Xueyi was not feeling anxious, there were some people who couldn't keep their calm.

For example, Tang Jian, who was He Gui's former girlfriend. The sound of glass shattering into pieces echoed inside the dressing room she was in as she swiped her arms across the table in front of her. The little assistants and makeup artist who were helping her get ready for her next program cowered in the corner.

Tang Jian's manager waved her hand to gesture for them to leave. And after everyone left, she picked up the phone that Tang Jian had thrown away earlier. The screen was slightly cracked, but it was still working and it showed a string of messages she exchanged with the reporter they hired to stalk He Gui.

"Jianjian, what's gotten to you? If you're angry because He Gui is still not planning to return to you, you still have to be mindful of your image in front of others. It's okay for you to be like this in front of me, but what would you do if someone took a recording of you acting like this?" Manager Bai said before placing the phone on the side.

Tang Jian whipped her head to look at her manager and tears suddenly gathered in her eyes. She palmed her face and muttered, "I couldn't help it. Why can't anything just go in my way? Look, even the reporter you hired to keep track of Brother He's actions told me to not mess around with the wrong people. The endorsement I got was also taken away from me. Is this Brother He's doing? Is he still angry at me and warning me not to mess with him?"

Six months ago, Tang Jian broke up with He Gui. They were previously engaged due to their family's interests and relation. However, Tang Jian didn't want to be married so early and told He Gui to push back their marriage to a later date as she wanted to pursue acting. Usually, He Gui would give in to her and support her. But he didn't agree with her this time. In her anger, Tang Jian broke up with him to give him a lesson.

But who would have thought that He Gui didn't even chase after her to ask for her forgiveness. He actually announced that their engagement was called off to everyone. Tang Jian's heart shattered when she heard that He Gui was now engaged to a woman with no background and came from the countryside two months after the announcement of their engagement falling through.

Manager Bai hugged her artists and cooed, "Shh. It's alright. It's my fault for hiring such an incompetent reporter. Next time, I'll hire a professional one to spy on He Gui's movement and also ruin his relationship with Miss Yin."

Hearing this, Tang Jian hugged her manager back. "You're the only one who understood and was kind to me, Manager Bai."

Manager Bai successfully coaxed Tang Jian to calm down and let the people from earlier enter the room again. When everything was in order, she couldn't help her thoughts wandering to what Tang Jian said previously about He Gui warning them.
