'Beep!'

Ran Xueyi hung the call at once upon hearing the repulsive voice of her ex-fiance, Yang Baihua.

Why was he calling her now? Hadn't she told him already that they were over and the engagement was no longer?

"Who is it?" Song Yu Han lifted her chin and asked in concern when he saw her behavior.

"Yang Baihua.." Ran Xueyi didn't hide it from him. "I already blocked his number along with my family. He must have bought a new phone and used my old number to contact me."

'Riiing!'

The phone lit up as it rang.

Ran Xueyi looked at her phone, contemplating whether she should throw it and change her phone. However, there were too many files on her phone that she didn't want to waste. And the phone was given to her by her grandmother.

"Don't answer it if you don't want to." Song Yu Han grabbed her hand which was holding the phone. "Don't spoil your mood just because of a man like him."

Ran Xueyi nodded and was going to turn her phone off. Just then, she received three text messages from Yang Baihua.

[Unregistered number: Please answer my call, Xueyi.]

[Unregistered number: I'm sorry. Forgive me.]

[Unregistered number: I broke up with her.]

"He broke up with his lover?" Song Yu Han's voice came above her head.

Ran Xueyi raised her head and frowned. "I don't believe it. Yang Baihua and Song Qian have been dating each other since high school. The two of them are inseparable. I don't think Yang Baihua would break up with her just because he wants me to come back to him."

"Then, what does he want by telling you this lie?" Song Yu Han asked.

Ran Xueyi thought for a second before she said, "The Yang family must have put him up to this. They forced him to break up with Song Qian to get me back."

"Forcing their heir to break up with his moonlight to get you, the only link to the Ran family.. The Yang family really is a piece of work," commented Song Yu Han with a chuckle. "So, what do you want to do?"

Ran Xueyi sneered as she replied, "What else? Play the game. I at least need to know what they want to do now that they've become desperate."

Ran Xueyi didn't want to talk to Yang Baihua. However, not talking to him just because she felt disgusted by his existence would disrupt her plan. So, she had to take the call.

The phone rang again. This time, Ran Xueyi didn't ignore or reject the call. She willingly accepted it and put it against her ear.

"Xueyi! Have you seen my messages?" Yang Baihua's eager tone was so loud that Ran Xueyi had to separate her phone a few inches away from her ear.

When Yang Baihua didn't hear a response from her, Yang Baihua was slightly incensed. However, he still talked to the phone while thinking that Ran Xueyi was just throwing a tantrum.

"I already broke up with Song Qian. There's no longer any connection between me and that woman. I swear, I will be better for you." Yang Baihua read out his lines with deep emotions. He believed that Ran Xueyi wouldn't leave him hanging so he continued.

"I know I've hurt you, but it was only because I was tricked by that woman's words! Xueyi, you know that I wouldn't hurt you. We've been inseparable ever since our engagement was announced."

"If you come back to me, I'll treat you better and never look at other women again! I swear by my name and mother's name. So, please come back." Yang Baihua swore with his heart. His voice even trembled.

After hearing his very sincere words, Ran Xueyi was silent for a moment.

A second later, she replied slowly, "Yang Baihua.. Did you really break up with Song Qian?"

Yang Baihua was afraid that she wouldn't respond to him. Thankfully, he heard her voice through the phone. Oh, how sweet and pleasing was her voice to the ears when he listened to it!

Pleased with himself, Yang Baihua quickly answered, "Yes! That woman and I will never have any relationship with each other!"

"But she's your secretary. Did you fire her already?" Ran Xueyi curled her lips into a cruel smile.

Song Yu Han stared at her with a knowing gaze. A smile was dangling on the tip of his lips. Just like Ran Xueyi, he was also smirking wickedly as if he could already imagine what she had planned by using this method.

Then, he let himself be lost in her scent as he dipped his face to her neck.

Ran Xueyi bit her lips, afraid that a moan would escape her lips. His tongue was licking, sucking, and marking her neck.

Yang Baihua was completely oblivious to what was happening on Ran Xueyi's side.

When he heard her question, he felt a sense of alarm and looked at his mother, who was sitting across from him along with some other elders in the Yang family.

"Of course! I already fired her so don't worry about her any longer." Yang Baihua forcibly declared whilst his heart was crying out.

He was being forced to coax Ran Xueyi into thinking that he broke up with Song Qian by his family in order to rope Ran Xueyi back to him. The Yang family suffered some setbacks a few days ago when Old Patriarch Ran suddenly pulled out on some of the projects that the Yang enterprises were working on.

A few days ago, after his uncle went out to talk with the Old Patriarch Ran with Ran Xueyi's father, the Yang family finally met some setbacks for the first time in a while. Some of the major projects that the Yang family have been working on suddenly pulled back regardless of the consequences the other party received. They were also thrown out of the investor's list in some old projects in the city.

Thus, the Yang family finally felt an urge for crisis. This was the first time they've seen the Old Patriarch Ran so angry.

And the only way for them to turn things around was to get Ran Xueyi back then Old Patriarch's onslaught attacks will cease.

Only she could stop the Old Patriarch now.
