Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Chapter 541  Scheming Her With the Help of Others

When Ran Xueyi returned, Song Yu Han was no longer alone. Cao Qing chatted with him happily with a smirk on the corner of his lips. Occasionally, Song Yu Han would say a word or two to respond to him, but he was not discouraged at all by his cold and indifferent attitude towards him. Rather, it made Cao Qing spat out some few more words to him. However, in the span of time that she left, some gawkers started to surround them. The ladies who found the two mysterious and attracting couldn't help but wish they could go over to the two men's table and get closer with him. Ran Xueyi smiled helplessly. Even with the disguise, Song Yu Han's handsomeness couldn't be completely covered up. "Did something happen?" Song Yu Han asked her as soon as she walked and stood beside him. "You took a while to get back here."

Ran Xueyi shook her head and replied, "Just met someone unpleasant." "What's pleasant inside a public restroom?" commented Cao Qing while scrunching his nose. Then, he pointed at Song Yu Han and decided to complain to her, "By the way, if you hadn't come back earlier, this guy might end up becoming a pervert and enter the women's restroom." Ran Xueyi took a glance at Song Yu Han, who shrugged his shoulders unapologetically. "I was worried something happened." Cao Qing rolled his eyes and said, "What can happen inside a public restroom other than people doing their business inside it?" "Actually… a lot of interesting things could happen there," said Ran Xueyi, making the two handsome men turn their head to look at her with questioning eyes. Feeling their gazes falling on her face, Ran Xueyi supplied, "I met Cao Yujin in the restroom with a girl." "Gasp!" Cao Qing made a scandalous expression. His eyes were wide as a saucer as he said, "No way! She shouldn't be that heartbroken!" Ran Xueyi gave him a confusing look. Just what rotten things did this guy imagine? Song Yu Han remained silent and indifferent. He couldn't care less about what Cao Yujin did in the restroom with a girl or a man. Speaking of which, the three of them saw Cao Yujin coming out of the hallway leading to the public restroom. Less than a minute later, another woman came out from there with a frantic expression on her face, looking left and right. On the other hand, Cao Yujin, who just reunited with a few members of the Cao family, watched the woman slowly approach Ran Xueyi's group with a smile on the tip of her lips. "Ran Xueyi, do you think I'll let you go just like that?" —

At the same moment, Ran Xueyi's eyes followed the woman who was with Cao Yujin earlier.

The rim of the woman's eyes were bloodshot and her hair was slightly messy, probably after she was pushed on the floor earlier by Cao Yujin. "H-hey… You're the one from earlier, right?" the woman put on a smile, but it was slightly forced and awkward. Ran Xueyi didn't want to talk to her, but seeing the woman hang her head lower, she said, "Is there something you want to tell me? Perhaps, something Cao Yujin want to relay to me as a message?" Seeing two ladies speak in front of them, Song Yu Han and Cao Qing didn't want to get involve and just watch for now. However, as soon as Cao Yujin's name was mentioned, their eyes should a bit of understanding. They realized this was the woman that Ran Xueyi had said to them about, the girl who was with Cao Yujin. But what was she doing here and not on Cao Yujin's side?

That was also something that Ran Xueyi wanted to know. Did Cao Yujin give her a message?

The woman, being looked on by the three of them, fell uncomfortable. Her back was soaked in sweat as she became even more nervous. "I… I'm here to thank you…" the woman said, lowering her head further to her chest, hiding her eyes from them.

"But I didn't even do anything to receive your gratitude," Ran Xueyi told her. The woman shook her head before she said, "Y-you did. Cao Yujin would've humiliated me, but you arrived and stopped her." Stopped her? Ran Xueyi thought strangely. She couldn't remember stopping Cao Yujin to save this woman.

Ah, was it because she stepped in before the situation could turn for the worst? But she only stepped in and spoke to Cao Yujin because she was irritated by Cao Yujin's possessiveness towards her husband, Song Yu Han, and nothing more. Song Yu Han sipped wine from his glass. While Cao Qing displayed a deep knowing look as he remembered who this woman was. "Aren't you miss Chen?" Cao Qing guessed correctly as the woman snapped her head upward to look at him, wondering who recognized her. Smiling foolishly at her, Cao Qing continued, "You're the second daughter of that traditional pharmaceutical family in City D, right?"

The woman, Miss Chen, nodded, "Yes." "I see… I see. So you're here to show your gratitude to Miss Ran Xueyi because she helped you?" Cao Qing seemed to be helping a helpless and awkward girl out of a difficult situation.

"And what kind of repayment are you planning to give her?" Song Yu Han suddenly opened his lips. "Is it your family's pharmaceutical company? Your family's greatest treasure? Or perhaps, money?" "Eh?" Miss Chen was stunned by his words. Cao Qing bit his lips to stop himself from laughing as Song Yu Han continued to speak, "It is rare and an honor to receive Ran Xueyi's help. Naturally, the payment should be extraordinary."

"What?" Miss Chen was shocked. She turned to look at Ran Xueyi then to the foreigner whose face was extremely handsome. Cao Yujin didn't tell her why she was targeting Ran Xueyi. But seeing this man, she understood something. Miss Chen guessed that it was probably because of this man that Cao Yujin wanted her to get rid of Ran Xueyi. Well, it doesn't matter. For as long as she succeeded in doing her task, what happens to Ran Xueyi was no longer her problem to solve.

Ran Xueyi should just blame her fate as well as herself for being together with a man that Cao Yujin like! Miss Chen's eyes narrowed, but she showed an expression of a naive and innocent person. She nodded at Song Yu Han's words and gratefully said with a smile, "Of course! What I'm going to give to her is something extremely valuable!" As she said this, she reached out to grab Ran Xueyi's hands. At a glance, Miss Chen looked like someone who was expressing her gratitude to her savior. But under careful examination, the ring on her left hand held some hidden machination that will produce a needle to be pushed outward. And that needle contained some potent drug that hasn't been released to the black market. Miss Chen did not want to use this precious drug that her family had recently created to get rid of Ran Xueyi. But Cao Yujin and the Cao family held more powerful influence to her than her desire to keep the drug hidden. "My gift will surely give Miss Ran intense joy," Miss Chen twisted the ring on her finger as her hand touched Ran Xueyi.
