Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife



But Little Zhanzhan insisted on keeping them and told her he would raise them himself… Ran Xueyi half-believed him, but she didn't think that her son would trick his father to raise them together!

Feeling a headache coming, Ran Xueyi turned around so she didn't have to see this pair of big and small people with the three chicks. 

At this time, she received a message from one of her people hiding in City A.. 

This person was tasked to observe the Ran family and report their every movement to Ran Xueyi. 

Ran Xueyi no longer had any affection left for the Ran family, she didn't forget that she still had her grandparents who were part of that family. She couldn't completely separate from them, but she also couldn't return to their side. So, she decided to have some of her people watch over the Ran family so she could hear whatever they did and not make trouble and ruin the Ran family any further. 

For the past three years, their movements have been observed and watched by Ran Xueyi. 

Naturally, Ran Xueyi knew of Ran Yue's unfaithfulness towards Yang Baihua. 

As soon as the report was done, Ran Xueyi fell into deep contemplation. 

While she was thinking, she saw Song Yu Han return with Little Zhanzhan to their bedroom. Their clean clothes were now stained with mud. 

Obviously, the pair of father and son had a lot of fun outside. 

Seeing them looking like they crawled in the mud, Ran Xueyi ushered them to the bathroom so they could clean themselves. She was going to leave them alone after, but who knew that they stretched out their paws and pulled her to the bathroom with them!

Ran Xueyi could not beat Song Yu Han. And she didn't have the heart to refuse her son's request to take a bath together. So, she could only surrender and let them rub their muddied hands on her clothes and skin before crowding the bathtub.

That evening, Adelle video called her. 

Adelle swiped her fingers on the tablet screen and said, "Just like what you said, there's no need for us to respond to the rumors. Although the traces of the person who first posted had disappeared leaving no hint for us to follow, the water army that came after them were easily tracked." 

She summarized what had happened. 

Soon after someone posted that they had seen Ran Xueyi walking at the mall with a man who looked like a parvenu, a water army was raised to boost this headline post so that it would become viral. 

[A/N: Water Army are fake accounts that are used by marketing accounts or entertainment agencies to further boost an artist's popularity by liking, commenting, and voting for them.]

"They got more than 20,000 water army at their disposal and were able to trend the topic. The people who paid them didn't know much about how the entertainment industry works so they were unable to hide their traces. I sent the screenshots for their transactions to you," said Adelle before taking a sip from her orange juice. 

Ran Xueyi took a quick look at the transactions that her manager sent to her. She was not surprised to see that it was Cao Yujin who had hired someone to pay for a water army to spread her scandal with a parvenu. 

She personally didn't know Cao Yujin and only met her at her mentor's retirement party. She didn't know what kind of a person Cao Yujin was. 

However, Ran Xueyi could tell that Cao Yujin had some sort of obsession towards Song Yu Han after she had Lapis investigate Cao Yujin. 

Song Yu Han also told her that the Cao family had reached out multiple times to the Song family, especially the Old Patriarch Song to have him and Cao Yujin become partners in life through marriage. Song Yichen didn't share the same vision as the Cao family thus, the discussion between Song Yu Han and Cao Yujin becoming marriage partners prolonged for several years. 

Cao Yujin had failed to move Song Yu Han despite her efforts. Song Yu Han had mentioned that she tried all methods to make him surrender to her; persuasion, if that didn't work, coercion, and if that didn't still work, she would bully him. 

Fortunately, Song Yu Han was an impressive prodigy with a talent that is one in a hundred million. Despite the Cao family's threats and pressure, Song Yichen didn't give up on him. 

But Ran Xueyi also knew that if she hadn't married Song Yu Han first, Old Patriarch Song would have considered it and forced the union between the two seeing how Song Yu Han remained alone for so many years. 

It was thanks to her impulsiveness that snatched Song Yu Han away from their hands. 

But Cao Yujin thought otherwise. She must see Ran Xueyi as some sl*t that stole the man who was supposed to belong to her! 

She couldn't allow Ran Xueyi to be happy and she did not want Song Yu Han to remain together with her. Hence, she devised a plan to smear Ran Xueyi's reputation by using the headline post and hint to everyone that she was not married. Instead, she was being kept by a third-rate wealthy man. 

Adelle reported the current situation on social media, "Honestly, I should thank the person who decided to spread a rumor about you. It made my job as your manager to further make you popular a lot easier. Look, even your films are getting a lot of attention now. Say, should we give them a reward?" 

Hearing this, Ran Xueyi smiled and agreed with her. 

Rather than being ruined by this scandal, Ran Xueyi instead got swept by the heat and turned into the most talked celebrity of the decade. Cao Yujin should really get a reward for her actions.

But what would be the most suitable gift for her? 

Ran Xueyi suddenly had an idea and went to look for Song Yu Han. 

When Song Yu Han heard her plan, he turned his head to look at her with a complicated look in his eyes. 

He tentatively asked her, "Are you sure you want to do this?" 

"Why not?" she asked him in return. 

Song Yu Han replied, "Well, won't you be put into a dangerous position if you went there alone?" 

Ran Xueyi shrugged and told him, "Even when I'm sitting here, I could be dragged into a dangerous situation so what's the difference?" 

He had nothing to say to that. 

She was right. Even if she didn't do anything and stayed silent, others won't do the same. 

So, it is better for her to do something now. 

Song Yu Han finally agreed to her, "Alright. I'll tell Guo Yun that we will attend the party." 

But before he could pick up his phone and tell Guo Yun, Ran Xueyi said, "No, I will be going there alone." 

"No. I won't agree." Song Yu Han frowned. 

Song Yu Han didn't want to go to that party in the first place, knowing that there's nothing good there. He knew that they wanted to trap him into their evil plans and could have played along with it, but he refused to act and pretended he didn't know what they wanted to do. 

But Ran Xueyi's sudden decision to go to the party deterred his intention of not attending the party. He decided to go there with her. 

But surprisingly, she told him not to go!

There was no way he would let him go there alone. The Cao family may not be her opponent, but there are bound to be some accidents. Song Yu Han couldn't afford to let these 'accidents' happen. 

Ran Xueyi could tell that he wouldn't agree. But she was of the same mind as him. She understood that he was afraid of letting her go alone to face the people who had tormented his past. But all the more she didn't want him to go with her. 

Song Yu Han's traumatic past shouldn't be triggered by letting him see them again. If she could allow it, she wouldn't let the Cao and Song family appear before him again. 

However, Song Yu Han was adamant with his decision to not let her go to the party alone. 

The two of them were at an impasse. Both didn't want to give up and retreat. 

But Song Yu Han had underestimated Ran Xueyi's stubbornness. 

When it was time to sleep, Ran Xueyi took her pillow and went to their son's room to sleep there. 

She even told him: "Let's sleep separately for now. I don't want to talk to you unless you agree to let me attend the party alone."

Naturally, Song Yu Han was head-strong with his decision. But seeing his wife moving to sleep in their son's room had wavered his heart. 

This was the first time Ran Xueyi had done this. They never slept separately even if they got into an argument. 

Although he didn't want to agree with her, how can Song Yu Han let Ran Xueyi sleep somewhere else? Even if that place turned out to be their son's room, he wouldn't allow it! 

In the end, because Ran Xueyi locked the room, Song Yu Han climbed through the walls and jumped into the window to their son's room. He saw Ran Xueyi and Little Zhanzhan holding each other to sleep. 

Song Yu Han sighed and went to sleep on Ran Xueyi's other side and pulled her close.

Alright, let's agree for now.
