Ran Xueyi woke up early in the morning with a slight headache. She couldn't remember how she got home after last night's party after their frenzied and public demonstration of losing their self-control. The only thing she remembered was that she fainted from the extreme stimulation and pleasure that Song Yu Han brought to her after doing it again and again.
Looking to her right, she saw the man who railed her fiercely and without mercy. He was sleeping so soundly with an arm wrapped across her waist with a peaceful look on his face. If one didn't experience his lustful and beasty actions when they did it, Ran Xueyi would have thought that Song Yu Han looked adorable.
"Hiss..."
Ran Xueyi reached her hand to touch her jaw and hissed. Last night, because she provoked him a bit too much, she had to suffer a little bit and felt her throat sore.
"Morning."
Song Yu Han's arm on her waist tightened around her and pulled her closely to his chest. Ran Xueyi smiled affectionately at him and said, "Good morning, Hubby."
"What time is it?"
Ran Xueyi looked at the clock on the bedside table and replied, "It's already 5 in the morning."
After hearing her reply, Song Yu Han wanted to pull her back to bed so they could go back to sleep. However, Ran Xueyi slipped away from his arms and got up from the bed.
"I have to go with Zhao Fei later to meet the casting director of my new movie." Ran Xueyi already got good news from Zhao Fei that the suspense-thriller movie that Red Light TV was going to produce this year.
Since < A Thousand Lotus > shooting will be put on hold for now, Zhao Fei immediately took on a new project for her to act in. The thriller movie was their first option but since they weren't so sure whether they'll get any role from it, Zhao Fei decided to put more attention to the other scripts that she got from some of her friends in the agent circle. Though they weren't in the same class as Red Light TV's movie, they will still give Ran Xueyi enough popularity.
Thankfully, Zhao Fei didn't end up giving up on the thriller movie because they still gave Ran Xueyi a role, which was the third lead role in the movie.
"Have breakfast first before you go." As Song Yu Han said this, he lifted the quilt, revealing his half-naked body and went downstairs to prepare some food for her to eat.
Ran Xueyi hummed a response before going to the bathroom. Several minutes later, she finished washing up, changed her clothes, and put on some light makeup before she went downstairs.
As always, the man cooking in the kitchen was almost done and made a simple American-style breakfast.
Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han sat across from each other and ate their food.
"What time are you going to be done?" Song Yu Han suddenly asked and touched the corner of her lips, where there were some crumbs on it.
Ran Xueyi let him do as he wanted and shrugged, "I don't know... But I'll call you when I'm done. But why are you asking?"
Song Yu Han stood up to pick up the dirty dishes and put them inside the dishwasher machine. He leaned his hips against the counter and stared at her, "Of course, I'm going to pick you up."
When Ran Xueyi left the villa, it was already 9 in the morning and Zhao Fei was waiting for her in the office. Wu Qi told her the recent happenings in the company and also told her that Deng Zhenzhen already knew what her company did and was annoyed by it.
However, since her company didn't want to let her go and even resorted to such cheap tricks, Deng Zhenzhen didn't mind forcing them to let her go. Hence, Deng Zhenzhen decided to use her own money to pay half of the acquisition amount that her previous company wanted while the other half would be paid from Chestnut Entertainment.
Ran Xueyi was not surprised by this and considering Deng Zhenzhen's personality, it was only expected that she would rather spend money than stay in her company for a bit longer and get milked by them.
Ran Xueyi was pleased by Deng Zhenzhen's decision and actions and thus, she made Wu Qi find a good agent to handle her affairs and have her choose from the resources that they successfully got from other TV stations.
As for Zhang Yiqing and Yao Chuan, the two first settled in the apartment that Song Yu Han gave to her. They are currently still training to get used to the change of agency and their routes were already chosen for them. For as long as they would act obediently to the arrangement of the company, after three years and with great achievements, they would be able to pick what resources and projects they wanted to do and the agency wouldn't say anything.
This was what Ran Xueyi promised to the three of them. And because of this, they all quickly agreed to sign with Chestnut Entertainment.
"Mr. Hao and Director Sun will ask you to sign a confidential agreement and contract for the movie later. When you meet them, make sure to show them that you're looking forward to the movie. However, don't show too much excitement or enthusiasm lest they will think that we're greedy to add more scenes for you," Zhao Fei calmly said.
Ran Xueyi smiled, "I know, Sister Zhao. But why do you look pale? Are you okay?"
There was sweat coming out from Zhao Fei's forehead and the frown on her face was getting deeper and darker, causing Ran Xueyi to feel concerned about her.
Zhao Fei waved her hand and told her not to worry. "It's just that my Auntie just came last night so I can't move much. I will let Xiao Feng go with you later when you meet Mr. Hao and Director Sun.."
[A/N: Auntie - a term used to say menstruation period. ZF is saying that she just had her period.]
Ran Xueyi laughed and stared as Zhao Fei drove away when they reached Red Light TV station.
Staring at the tall building in front of her, Ran Xueyi felt a slight nostalgia. She had been here six years ago. Her other movies and second last movie was produced by Red Light TV. Somehow, she could consider Red Light TV as her other home.
Ran Xueyi and Feng Huai were brought to a conference meeting room and there were already three people inside. Aside from Director Sun and Hao Chun, a lawyer was there to oversee the contract signing.
After greeting each other, Ran Xueyi and Director Sun clasped hands to signal their cooperation.
Director Sun had a good impression of Ran Xueyi. Previously, he was still in doubt since Ran Xueyi hadn't been active in the acting circle for several years. However, since Producer Ding was confident with her skill in acting, he could only meet her first and see for himself.
And much to his surprise, Ran Xueyi didn't only appear beautiful and elegant. She looked the same even after six years. Not only that, he could tell that she took great care of her face and body and that she didn't fare any lesser from the young and fresh newcomers that had just started their acting career.
This was really shocking and surprising. However, Director Sun was even more surprised to hear that Ran Xueyi actually established her own company and didn't need anyone to manage her own affairs. This was a good thing since it meant that they don't have to go to her agency to talk and they just have to go to her to ask.
As for her acting skill... Director Sun still didn't see it, but he couldn't wait to see her in action.
After signing and securing her role in the movie, Ran Xueyi called Song Yu Han to say that she's done with her business. Since Feng Huai didn't know about her relationship with Song Yu Han, she let him go home first while she waited inside a café.
While waiting, she remembered something.
She took her phone out and went to check the calendar in a rushed manner.
The frown on her face deepened as she counted the days.
Then, she had an epiphany.
Her menstruation period hasn't come for two months now...
