"No."

Ran Yue immediately rejected the idea of meeting Ran Xueyi.

She was already happy with Ran Xueyi taking a break from filming. And if things worked in her way, she would be able to finish all her scenes before Ran Xueyi comes back. Why would she want to see her older sister again?

Li Jing didn't know what happened between Ran Xueyi and Ran Yue in the filming set and thought that Ran Yue's refusal was due to what happened three years ago.

She took out a cigarette and lit it up before sticking the filtered side to her mouth. The smoke slowly rose and condensed inside the car.

Li Jing squeezed the cigarette in her hand under Ran Yue's shocked eyes, thought for a while, and then explained, "I know what you're thinking. Ran Xueyi will definitely not help us after what happened three years ago. If I was her, I wouldn't even stand the faces of the people who abandoned her."

Ran Yue asked, "Then, why do you want to meet her if you already know?"

"It's because despite what happened, your father cannot win against Ran Xueyi." Li Jing tapped her fingers on the steering wheel as she continued, "Three years ago, Ran Xueyi left. But the inheritance battle between your father and Ran Xueyi is still going on. Now that she returned, more successful than ever, do you think the board members will even consider your father to become the next chairman?"

Ran Yue didn't think of this hadn't her mother reminded her.

As the second daughter, Ran Yue never showed any interest in her grandparents' company and pursued her dream of being a popular actress. Right now, Ran Yue still didn't have any intentions of entering the battle of inheritance.

It was only Ran Xueyi who helped her grandfather and trained under their strict lessons.

Ran Xueyi was more familiar with the board members and now that she was someone sought-after by many brands domestically and internationally, the board members will surely weigh Ran Xueyi more than their father.

It was a good plan to take Ran Mo Zheng down.

But the question is... Is Ran Xueyi even willing to join hands with them?

Furthermore... Ran Xueyi's warning to her was something she couldn't forget.

...

"Achoo!"

Ran Xueyi sniffed and was about to rub her nose when Song Yu Han handed a tissue to her.

After saying her thanks, she wiped her nose and sniffed again. As expected, her nose clogged up.

Song Yu Han looked away from his laptop and worriedly asked in concern, "Did you catch a cold?"

Ran Xueyi shook her head. She understands her body well and knew that she was perfectly healthy.

Song Yu Han frowned. "I'll cook up some chicken porridge for you to drink. It'll be bad if you really end up getting a cold."

Ran Xueyi still wanted to say she was not sick, but hearing him say he was cooking, how could she pass on that offer? Naturally, she wanted to taste Song Yu Han's dishes and most importantly, watch her man cook for herself!

...

After eating until she was completely full, Ran Xueyi lay on the bed and thought about the situation of Shi Lian. Suddenly, she thought that the manager was truly pitiful. Shi Lian was used by Steffanie under blackmail and had to do the shady business because she had no other choice. If she hadn't done that, her father's life would become miserable with her.

However, even if she had some pity towards Shi Lian, Ran Xueyi couldn't possibly let Shi Lian off either.

Shi Lian committed sins after sins under Steffanie's orders and even if she was not willing, she couldn't be free of her sinful deeds.

That was why Ran Xueyi included Shi Lian in her lawsuit.

Right now, Shi Lian was sentenced to two-years in prison and if she acted according to the rules and showed that she's ready to go out to face the world again, she could serve 12 months of probation.

Furthermore, Ran Xueyi was willing to support her father's hospital needs so Shi Lian did not have anything to worry about when she's inside the prison.

As she was thinking deeply, Ran Xueyi felt a chill sweep past her legs. When she looked down to see what was going on; it turned out, Song Yu Han had removed her pants without her noticing.historical

Ran Xueyi looked at Song Yu Han, whose head was in between her legs.

Ran Xueyi: "...When did you-"

"Since you have time to think about something else when I'm with you, shouldn't I do something that can attract your attention?"

"By eating me out?"

Song Yu Han nodded. "By eating you out."

In reality, Song Yu Han saw her being dazed and thinking about something deeply. Worried that she was thinking about the matter with Steffanie and Shi Lian again, he wanted to distract her. He just knew that Ran Xueyi was a little soft-hearted especially towards Shi Lian's case.

Initially, Ran Xueyi wanted to let Shi Lian go, but Song Yu Han advised against it, telling her that she shouldn't be too compassionate. What would happen if Shi Lian was successful in pouring that acid in her face?

Song Yu Han did not care about a person's appearance, but it was not the same for Ran Xueyi. She worked hard to protect her image and keep her dream only for someone to destroy it just for a moment of selfishness and self-immunity. How could he let Shi Lian go?

Ran Xueyi giggled as his warm hands ran up and down her slender and uncovered legs. Flushing a little bit at the closeness of his face to her privates.

"Uh... How about Xiao Zhanzhan?"

"He's asleep."

"Really asleep?"

"Don't worry, he won't wake up even if you make a sound."

In an instant, the lights were turned off. The sound of fabric rustled across the room as clothes were strewn to the floor. In the darkness, two bodies were firmly pressed together, the shadows of two people could even make one's face heat up and blush, while the sounds of their pants and hurried breathing echoed.
