Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Chapter 540  Salamander

Song Yu Han took his phone out while Ran Xueyi was not looking his way. He gave Guo Yun a very specific instruction to look for professional artist who could teach him and Little Zhanzhan. By the time Guo Yun received his boss's message, it was already 11 in the evening. Since Song Yu Han was away from the office, Guo Yun was able to return home early that day. There was no need for an overtime. He had just been planning to sleep early, so he could enjoy his beauty sleep when he received a message.

The familiar ringtone sounded like a signal of doom closing in.

Groaning in frustration, Guo Yun kicked the blankets off himself before making his way to the living room, where he placed his phone. He reluctantly unlocked his screen and read Song Yu Han's message, and quickly regretted it.

Song Yu Han's order this time was unexpected.

"Why the hell do you want to hire a professional artist? Are you planning to join an art contest?" Guo Yun could only resign himself to his fate after grumbling under his breath.

After contacting a few people, Guo Yun finally got 5 best recommended artists who graduated from famous Art Universities.

3 of which were male and the last two were female.

At the same time, Ran Xueyi felt slightly uncomfortable after eating too much. She excused herself to Song Yu Han and headed towards the public restroom.

When she stepped into the room, her eyes fell on Cao Yujin, who stood before the mirror with another woman.

The two did not notice her at all.

"Ca-Cao Yujin, please give me another chance! Please!" the other woman held on Cao Yujin's legs desperately as if she was clinging for her dear life.

Unaffected by the other person's tears and pleas, Cao Yujin kicked her feet and chuckled, "Another chance? Do I, Cao Yujin, look like someone who give second chances to poor people like you?"

The woman lowered her head in embarrassment as Cao Yujin continued degrading her, "Look at what you've done. You touched my dress with your dirty hands, now it's ruined. I don't have time to change, and I'm too angry to let this slide. What do you think should I do?"

"But I only grazed you—"

"Only? Who knows how many germs you have in your commoner hands. Ugh! Just thinking about it is making my stomach churn in disgust. Who let you in, anyway?" Cao Yujin frowned as she looked down at the woman.

"You're making a lot of fuss over your dress, but aren't you being too dramatic for someone who entered the public restroom?" Ran Xueyi stepped into their line of sight.

Cao Yujin was stunned.

"You… Why are you here?"

Wasn't the party only for exclusive guests? Why was this woman allowed here?

Ran Xueyi smiled at her.

"Well, why else am I here if not invited?" Ran Xueyi replied calmly. "Or are you thinking I snuck into your family's party?"

Cao Yujin wanted to answer yes, but then, she remembered that the parameter around the Cao family's mansion was closed off, surrounded by several guards. No one could easily enter the area without authorization.

"I heard you're engaged," Ran Xueyi stepped closer and held out a hand. "Congratulation for being off the single market, Cao Yujin."

Cao Yujin clenched her fists. She thought of what happened in that small room with her grandfather and how she found out that Song Yu Han was already married. The anger she felt became even stronger.

"Don't be so happy just yet, Ran Xueyi." Cao Yujin slapped her hand away. "And I'm not engaged!"

"Yes, you are," Ran Xueyi smiled even wider, adoring every frown that appear in Cao Yujin's face. "I just heard your grandfather talking to someone. It seems he got a huge deal from your marriage, by the way he was grinning from ear to ear."

Of course, it wasn't true. Ran Xueyi never heard the conversation between Old Patriarch Cao and the Elder of An Hun. However, she guessed that some negotiations between the two were discussed. After all, why would two powerful figures shake hands with each other while looking like two predators eating the other's flesh and bones?

But using this against Cao Yujin will only make Ran Xueyi feel happy. Thus, she mentioned Old Patriarch Cao in front of Cao Yujin.

As expected, Cao Yujin's reaction did not disappoint.

"I don't believe you. I know my grandfather. He won't give me away so easily."

"But he already did," Ran Xueyi interjected before Cao Yujin could comfort herself. "He gave you away while you're here humiliating someone in a public restroom for ruining your… old-fashion dress."

After speaking, Ran Xueyi gave the woman on the floor a glance. Then, turned around.

Cao Yujin, on the other hand, stood in place uncomfortably, feeling the panic in her heart rising to her head. Will her grandfather use her as a sacrifice now that the engagement she dreamed of with Song Yu Han didn't happen?

No, she can't let herself be sold off like a broodmare!

Cao Yujin didn't understand why things went down south, nor does she want to figure out how. She can't stay here!

She needs to quickly get rid of Ran Xueyi beside Song Yu Han and replace her!

Cao Yujin took a step forward. But stopped as soon as she thought of a ridiculous plan. The party has been going on for so long. The time for the guests to leave was approaching. And at the same time, it was the only chance for Cao Yujin to trap Ran Xueyi within the Cao family's mansion.

That's right!

It's now or never!

Song Yu Han isn't here… He won't be able to help Ran Xueyi even if he wanted to.

Turning her head slightly to look behind her, Cao Yujin said, "You want me to give you another chance, right?"

The woman on the floor took a few seconds to snap out of her daze and nodded.
