The next morning.
Ran Xueyi woke up early in the morning.
Around five in the morning, the maids and servants in the mansion were still groggy and sleepwalking. Her parents and Ran Yue were not any different from them since they usually woke up and ate their breakfast around eight in the morning.
So, without rushing, Ran Xueyi took her time to take a morning bath and change her clothes before packing some of her things from her room.
The chaos she caused last night will be enough to make her parents jump around like a chicken being chased by a dog. They will surely talk her into quitting her wish to continue being an actress.
As for Yang Baihua... Ran Xueyi already planned something for him and Song Qian. It was just that it wasn't the perfect time to completely destroy the two of them.
Besides, she didn't want to meet him now for fear that she would punch him straight to his nose and beat him up until he stays two months in the hospital. That would mess with her plans to entangle everyone into her plans.
"Eldest Miss Ran, you're awake early." The head maid greeted her first when Ran Xueyi walked down the stairs.
The head maid had a look of surprise on her face as her gaze stayed on what Ran Xueyi was wearing.
The young woman standing before her was wearing a dark red dress with a length that moderately stopped below her knees, showing her long and white legs that would certainly make men stare at them for a longer time. She paired her dress with a white stiletto and white purse.
"Auntie Lan." Ran Xueyi smiled as she greeted back to her.
"Where are you going so early in the morning, Eldest Miss Ran?" Auntie Lan asked.
Last night, Mrs. Ran especially ordered her to keep an eye on Ran Xueyi. Auntie Lan didn't know what Ran Xueyi did to make the madam, her mother, so angry that she would let the head maid keep an eye on her. However, as a maid, Auntie Lan had no right to ask questions.
While asking, Auntie Lan's eyes fell on the suitcase that Ran Xueyi was holding before glancing back at the beautiful face.
Ran Xueyi smiled at Auntie Lan and walked closer.
When there was only a step in between the two of them, Rn Xueyi narrowed her eyes and smilingly said, "Auntie Lan, whether if I'm going out or if I'm eloping with someone, when has it been your place to ask?"
"I...I am only concerned that your parents will look for you when they come down for breakfast."
"Oh? I am really fortunate that Auntie Lan is concerned about what my parents are thinking."
"I'm also concerned about you, Eldest Miss."
Ran Xueyi smiled even bigger.
She wanted to laugh at Auntie Lan's pale face and trembling body.
Pulling away slightly, Ran Xueyi sighed. "Auntie Lan... you should know you're getting older. Why not think about your plans for the future after retiring?"
Auntie Lan's heart jumped. "Wha... What does Eldest Miss mean by that? Your Auntie Lan still wants to work in the family."
Ran Xueyi shrugged. "Nothing, really. I'm just also concerned about you, Auntie Lan." She took a pause before she coldly said, "However, it is better if you don't forget who's been paying your monthly income, Auntie Lan."
Without waiting for the old maid's reply, Ran Xueyi sidestepped and walked out of the main door without looking back.
Auntie Lan was originally Grandmother Ran's maid whom she treated as a close friend and has been working in the Ran family for over 40 years. However, after Li Jing married into the family, the old couple left home and started to live in the countryside where the family's mansion was located.
And much to everyone's surprise, the old maid, who was Grandma Ran's close friend and maid, decided to stay to take care of Ran Mo Zheng for fear that the young master would make new mistakes and look after the grandchildren of the Ran family.
Auntie Lan's action was seen as a sacrificial move since she was already an old lady. Her not going after the old couple Ran turned her into a loyal maid who wanted to continue her duties until she died from old age. Even Ran Xueyi thought that Auntie Lan was really good in the past.
But now... All Ran Xueyi saw from Auntie Lan was greed. She was an old lady filled with greed of money and disloyal towards her real master - a dog who bites the hands of its owner, because until now, Grandma Ran was the one who provided Auntie Lan her monthly income.
Ran Xueyi pulled her suitcase to her white 4-seater BMW and dumped it in the backseat before getting inside the driver's seat herself.
Ran Xueyi remained extremely calm as her car got out of the Ran family's mansion even when she's aware that once her parents and sister woke up to find that she's no longer inside the house, they will go ballistic and start looking for her.
But she wasn't worried.
While she had her undivided attention on the road ahead, her phone chimed. A new message was sent to her.
[YH: Are you awake now?]
Ran Xueyi glanced at her phone that lit up and flashed the message on the screen. Her eyes widened in surprise upon seeing her virtual boyfriend's message.
'And here I thought you're ignoring me after getting my money.' Ran Xueyi thought to herself and took her phone to write a reply as she pulled over to the side.
However, before she could construct a complete sentence, another message from her virtual boyfriend was sent.
[YH: Do you want to meet up?]
Ran Xueyi tilted her head in confusion. Was meeting face to face included in the package she ordered from the online shop?
Maybe, it is. Since she paid 15,000 yuan to the shop...
After having this thought, Ran Xueyi replied.
[Snowrabbit: Oh, you finally replied. Thankfully, my baby didn't forget about me.]
[Snowrabbit: Okay, let's meet up at lunch. I'm craving for a lobster.]
After sending her reply, Ran Xueyi looked at her phone.
Not a minute later, a reply from YH was received.
[YH: Alright. Let's meet up in Daiyu Hotel. There's a restaurant there who specialize in cooking lobster.]
Ran Xueyi's mouth twitched upon reading the name of the hotel. Daiyu Hotel was a high-class hotel and a night there was more than what she paid to get a virtual boyfriend. The restaurants in the hotel was also as expensive as the rooms in Daiyu Hotel.
So, can he really afford a meal there?
