Between a celebrity's life and a well-known company's destruction, which one would deal with a great deal of problems when things go awry?
A celebrity like Ran Xueyi would only have her days as an actress cease and she won't be able to continue her dreams of becoming the country's biggest celebrity. But it won't affect them much. They could still make a comeback or live a normal life.
But, a company could go bankrupt with one nasty rumor and everyone in their group would topple down like a stack of rocks.
Can Ma Yili really afford to go against Ran Xueyi and risk her entire family's company?
Obviously not!
Of course, Ma Yili hadn't thought of this. Furthermore, she thought that everything that Ran Xueyi had just said was just a bluff, but thinking about what happened to Steffanie and the Chang family, she couldn't bring herself to say that Ran Xueyi was lying to her.
Not when Ran Xueyi's eyes were gleaming with pure evilness and malice.
There was no doubt that Ran Xueyi would do as she said and didn't care about Ma Yili's threat to expose her son to the world.
Ma Yili did not know where Ran Xueyi's confidence and courage had come from. Why was she so fearless?
There was only one reason behind her fearlessness.
It was because Ran Xueyi had never really cared about her secrets being exposed.
"Think carefully, Miss Ma, do you really want to go against a nobody like me?" said Ran Xueyi.
Hearing this, Ma Yili's body suddenly trembled and her palms were becoming sweaty.
Seeing Ma Yili bow her head down; defeated, Ran Xueyi turned and glanced at the crowd before flashing them a relaxed and polite smile.
Everybody's eyes grew bigger. The beautiful appearance in front of their eyes were too enchanting and mysterious. They knew that it would take a while before this scene would be erased from their memory.
Everyone couldn't turn away from Ran Xueyi and when she turned while holding the little boy's hand, the crowd automatically parted to give way for them.
...
"You didn't let me do anything again," Song Yu Han suddenly said as they found a place to get away from the crowd's eyes.
Ran Xueyi turned to him, saw him sulking on a corner, and started laughing.
Earlier, Song Yu Han wanted to speak, but she stopped him. Ran Xueyi knew what he wanted to do, but this kind of situation should be handled by her.
However, it seems that because she had been restricting Song Yu Han from helping her, she somehow made him sulk and rethink his worth as her husband.
As ridiculous and hilarious that notion was, Ran Xueyi still had to pacify him.
"You came on time to save me before I fell... and you did that with Xiao Zhanzhan. I'm very grateful for that." Ran Xueyi raised her head to look him in the eyes. "But now, people will become interested in your identity."
Song Yu Han stared back at her and asked, "Are you afraid of people finding out that the infamous Young Master Song is your husband?"
Ran Xueyi immediately shook her head, "I already announced I'm married and I also mentioned Little Zhanzhan in front of everyone in the party. I'm not scared of anything."
"Then, what makes you worry so much that your face is frowning like a newborn baby."
"You've seen a newborn baby's face before?" Ran Xueyi expressed her surprise.
"You're changing the topic. But yes, I've seen a newborn baby's face before," Song Yu Han told her.
Ran Xueyi: "When?"
"When you gave birth," he revealed to her.
"What?" Ran Xueyi was astonished by his words. She couldn't help but hold his hand and repeatedly ask him, "What did you just say?"
More than three years ago, when she gave birth to Little Zhanzhan, it was Jian Yiling who stayed beside her. Nobody else was there.
Yet, Song Yu Han just said that he had been there.
Song Yu Han didn't want to keep this a secret to her, but at that time, he had no way of showing up publicly when everybody's eyes were focused on him. If his enemies were to find out he had been in a hospital to visit his pregnant wife, they would target Ran Xueyi and their child.
So, in the end, Song Yu Han could only do it secretly by convincing Jian Yiling to let him in for fifteen minutes to watch the operation behind a one-way glass mirror.
When he saw how Ran Xueyi struggled to give birth, his heart started to pound against his ribs. He wanted to break the mirror and rush to her side to hold Ran Xueyi's hands. But Guo Yun held him down, reminding him of the danger if he did that.
In the end, he could only watch until Little Zhanzhan came out and cried out.
But that was enough for him to see the wrinkly face of their child.
Song Yu Han hooked a finger under chin and slightly tilted it upwards, "Did you think I left you alone to give birth to our son? I've seen his ugly and wrinkly face before he turned into a handsome boy."
"I never left your side. I just didn't appear too close around you."
Ran Xueyi couldn't help but tear up. She resented Song Yu Han a little bit because he wasn't around when she was pregnant. It was lonely and unpleasant to be alone. But she could understand his intentions and concerns.
Song Yu Han grew up being targeted by everyone and he naturally didn't want Ran Xueyi and their child to be targeted too. So, he could only leave them alone reluctantly.
But, he never left.
He was there all along but just couldn't appear in front of them. No wonder why Song Yu Han had to get a new identity as the Earl and bought the mansion next to theirs. It was understandable why he had to wear a mask to just keep his identity a secret.
