Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Ran Xueyi didn't pursue the matter and let the high schoolers go. It wasn't that she was being magnanimous towards them, it was just that there wasn't any problem having her picture taken by a stranger when they were just mesmerized with her beauty.

After finishing her meal, Ran Xueyi paid the bill and left the place before making her way to Empire House where she will be living from now on. The plot of land where the estate was built was part of a mountain. Each house in there had their own separate garden, backyard, front yard, and steel gates to protect their privacy on top of the security that the estate offered to the tenants.

Rumor has it that the owner of the Empire House Estate was an old patriarch from an affluent family in the capital, and that he bought this plot of land during the surge of economic rise twenty years ago for his wife as a gift. However, up until now, no one has ever seen the 'owner' of this estate that was praised by many.

The house that Ran Xueyi bought was really good. The paint was bright, the furnishing was up to her taste, and the fresh air of nature in the mountain was completely different from the polluted air in the middle of the capital.

After taking the documents from the staff, Ran Xueyi locked herself in her new house and rested for half a day.

80 million was deducted from the 127 million yuan she got from Chairman Yi. At this moment, she only has more or less 50 million yuan in her bank account. To other people, this was a huge amount of money. However, the lifestyle of those who lived in the capital would disagree.

50 million yuan wasn't enough for Ran Xueyi if she wanted to start a business.

That's right. Ran Xueyi didn't only plan to go back to the entertainment industry. She wanted to create an entertainment company where she could be the president of the company as well as one of the top artists in it. Of course, she will also recruit other artists in it since there was no way an entertainment company would only have one or two artists.

After resting for half a day, Ran Xueyi took her phone and called Liu Ran once again.

The phone connected immediately and she said, "Mr. Liu, is there currently a building being sold in the capital right now?"

"A building? Why? Are you planning to start a business?" Liu Ran asked in turn.

Ran Xueyi didn't keep it a secret from him and answered, "That's right. I'm planning to start an entertainment business. I just need a building with a clean environment, an area where it is not too populated, and without any bad history or connection to the Underworld."

Liu Ran scratched his nose as he listened to her and stood up from his seat. He took out a portfolio and started to spread several papers on top of his table. "I have a 14-floor building near XXX station. It is a bit populated since it's near the train station, but it has a clean background and environment. I also have a 17-storey building. But that building is being auctioned off tomorrow."

14-storey building... It was good enough. However, the area was too populated since it was near the train station. Although Ran Xueyi was attracted to it, she couldn't compromise her future artists' safety. If she successfully recruited some and they ended up big in the entertainment industry, there will be traffic and fans camping outside.

In the end, Ran Xueyi went to the auction with Liu Ran the next day.

Several people have already arrived and sat at their table, waiting for the auction to start. Everyone was wearing designer suits and shoes and glamorous jewelry to flaunt their wealth in front of the other competitors.

"The air in here is really thick and stiff. Do you think you'll be able to get the building you want in the end?" Liu Ran led Ran Xueyi to a table where two other people were already seated. He greeted the two which they reciprocated with a nod and a few curious glances on Ran Xueyi. "If I auction you tonight, do you think I can get the highest bid in this auction house's history?"

Ran Xueyi smiled at him. "Do you have the courage to do that?"

Liu Ran quickly shook his head. "I'm afraid not. You'll probably throw me under a bridge. Besides, I don't know what your husband will do to me if he finds out I auctioned you off." He took a pause for a few seconds before he asked, "By the way, your husband... Why didn't he come along?"

Liu Ran knew who Ran Xueyi's husband was. It was the young master of the Song family, one of the four great families in the capital. When he first heard it from Ran Xueyi, he had a hard time digesting the news before exploding. He thought Ran Xueyi was just joking and married someone with the same name, but he knew Ran Xueyi too well. She wouldn't lie to him about such important matters.

Thus, he could only half accept her marriage with 'Song Yu Han' while also trying to confirm the truth. He didn't want anyone to use Ran Xueyi and leave her again to the dust. This Song Yu Han she married, he must meet him and see if it was the genuine young master or not.

Ran Xueyi stared at the discarded phone on the table and sighed. "He's outside the country right now so he couldn't come... Also, he's a bit upset with me."

Hearing the last part, Liu Ran turned to her after he sipped from his glass of wine. "Why? Did you two fight?" he asked.

Ran Xueyi shook her head. "No, we didn't fight. I left the house without waiting for him and went to the capital."

Just as Liu Ran was about to say something, he saw her phone screen lighting up. Ran Xueyi looked down at it too and saw that it was from the clinic where she took her Intrauterine insemination.

She excused herself and went outside where a garden was located before answering the call.

After taking the call and hanging up, Ran Xueyi returned to their table.

Liu Ran kept asking her about some things, but in the middle of it, he noticed that Ran Xueyi responded to him with monosyllabic words. The smile on her face earlier was also wiped away and he could easily tell that she was angry.

But why was she angry after answering the call?

Did something bad happen?
