Old Director Sun wanted to pull Ran Xueyi to his side. Not because he wanted to scold her in front of everyone else, but because he was afraid that a certain someone would dare to humiliate her instead.
But even a few seconds later, Song Yu Han did not rebuke Ran Xueyi's words. Rather than that, Old Director Sun and his wife saw Song Yu Han glancing at Ran Xueyi with extreme indulgence.
This somewhat confused them but they couldn't point out where they should be confused at.
In the end, the hosts had to bring the guests inside. The party had yet to begin so Old Director Sun called his daughter to replace them to greet the incoming guests and bring Ran Xueyi's group to the second floor where the hosts could rest any time during the party.
Once separated from the public's eyes, Old Director Sun politely greeted Song Yu Han again. On the other hand, his wife asked Ran Xueyi how she was doing and if she was doing alright in the entertainment industry.
As veterans of the filmmaking industry, the old couple knew just how hard it is for a retired actress to come back to the spotlight. Although there were still some glory and fame left from the past, it shouldn't compare to the present personalities and celebrities that were rising quickly.
Ran Xueyi knew their concerns for her so she obediently listened and answered Aunt Xu's questions.
After ten minutes, the old couple also dragged the other members of the group to their discussion.
At this time, Old Director Sun seemed to remember something and asked, "When you arrive, did you all come from the same place?"
Two cars pulled up at the entrance and the group entered one after another. Though it was strange to see a group of people arriving, not many assumed that they all came from the same place. Rather, they thought that they could have arrived at the same time.
At the old director's question, Qing Luo smilingly replied, "That's right, Senior Sun."
Old Director Sun was shocked but he carefully looked at these people before he realized that they didn't act unfamiliar with each other. Instead, they harmonized with each other as if they weren't strangers who met today.
Qing Luo understood the expression on Old Director Sun's face and explained the situation.
Old Director Sun then understood what exactly happened to them. But his shock was not because they ended up working together but Song Yu Han. How is it possible that an extremely enigmatic and wealthy man like him would think of entering the entertainment industry as an actor?
There were naturally some wealthy young masters and misses who entered the entertainment industry. Some paid their way into the circle and some hid their wealthy backgrounds. But to think that the chairman of YH Group and young master of the Song family joined in the trend... this was a nuclear bomb nobody expected!
It was also precisely because of this that even after they returned to the banquet hall, Old Director Sun dazedly greeted his incoming guests with lukewarm air.
Ran Xueyi glanced over at her mentor and innocently smiled at Aunt Xu, who sighed helplessly at her husband.
He was the star of the event yet here he was, he couldn't even keep his image together.
But it was not his fault.
Ran Xueyi also did not hide her relationship with Song Yu Han from her mentor and Aunt Xu. Aunt Xu was only momentarily shocked but she guessed it already since Song Yu Han looked at Ran Xueyi with a pampering behaviour that was unique to a man who was in love with a woman.
Unfortunately, Old Director Sun was struck with shock and couldn't recover quickly.
The purpose of attending the party was not only to congratulate her mentor's retirement but also to reveal to them that she was married and started a family. They were her parents when her real parents diverted their attention to her younger sister and doing their own things. When she lacked warmth and parental affection, they showered her with theirs and treated her like a family.
Unfortunately, Ran Xueyi was still an idiot who desired to be loved by her real family and, she ruthlessly lost contact with them.
When thinking about the past, Ran Xueyi greatly regretted the actions and decisions she took before.
It was a good thing that Old Director Sun and Aunt Xu knew her well and understood what she was feeling thus, did not harbour any hard feelings towards Ran Xueyi. The only thing they regretted a lot was that they were unable to take her away from the people who hurt her and also missed the chance to protect her when she needed it the most.
Thankfully, all was not lost. Ran Xueyi previously hesitated to meet them because she was too embarrassed to face them. It was all her fault that they lost contact with each other no matter what angle you look at it.
True, she was an idiot who listened to the words of the Ran family and Yang Baihua. She let them manipulate her by using her desire of belonging and wanting a complete family. However, it was also an unexcusable thing for her to turn her back to her mentors.
Song Yu Hwn walked to stand beside her and held her hand in his hand before asking, "What are you thinking so deeply about?"
Ran Xueyi blinked and looked around. When she saw no one looking at them, she sighed and said, "I'm thinking about how stupid I was in the past." Without waiting for him to refute her words, she continued to say, "I already know that my real parents would never place their love and adoration on me as soon as my grandfather introduced me to the Ran family elders and shareholders. However, I thought that for as long as I did better in my talent in acting and other skills, they would realize that they were lucky to have a daughter like me."
"With this kind of obsessive desire to make my parents look at me, I found Old Director Sun who became my mentor as I started my career in acting. He and Auntie Xu took turns in taking care of me, treating me like their own daughter. When I stayed with them, my parents didn't even realize I no longer stayed at our home. But even then, I still crave what other children have."
Ran Xueyi's eyes turned slightly red as she continued, "I received what I lack from my grandparents and my mentors. But I chose to blind myself to satisfy my cravings. In the end, I ultimately ruined my relationship with my mentor and lost contact with them. If I could, I wish to turn back time and then, correct my wrongs."
Song Yu Han listened to her very patiently. His hand massaged hers gently and when he heard the last sentence, he narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Turning back the time... Will you even meet me then?"
If that really happened and Ran Xueyu went back to the past, she might really not meet Song Yu Han.
It was no wonder Song Yu Han was slightly angry at her when he asked this question to her. Even Ran Xueyi would be upset if she heard this from Song Yu Han.
Knowing her mistake, Ran Xueyi grabbed his hand and looked into his eyes, "Husband, don't be angry. I was wrong."
Even though Song Yu Han still wanted to tease her by pretending to be angered by her words, he really could not keep a straight face when faced with Ran Xueyi's coquettish acts and adorable face.
In the end, he sighed and flicked his finger on her forehead, "Since you know you're wrong, you should also know that when we return, I, as your husband, can punish you, right?"
Naturally, the punishment was not a normal punishment.
Ran Xueyi's face reddened and did not want to look at him anymore. How can he easily throw these words at her in public?
Even though she enjoyed their shared moments in their bedroom and liked to do that deed, Ran Xueyi couldn't keep a straight face when he blatantly seduced her in public!
Standing a few feet away from the flirty couple, Daren Wang rolled his eyes and complained in his heart.
These two can't even see that a lot of single dogs were already full of eating their dog food!
As a single dog himself, Daren Wang threw a sorrowful look at the half-eaten drumstick on his plate.
He suddenly missed his brothers at the dormitory. At least, they can understand the troubles of a single dog.
"Brother Peacock's friend... why aren't you eating?"
Daren Wang suddenly heard a soft and cute voice below. He looked down and almost jumped in fright.
Ran Xueyi and Song Yu Han's son stood next to his legs, looking up at him with a pair of adorable eyes.
