"Alright, let’s change our clothes quickly. It won’t be good if someone comes." Ye Ranran looked around.
The two of them ducked into the restroom to change. As they came out, they ran into someone.
Seeing Ye Ranran, Su Yu was stunned, then puzzled, "Why are you here?"
People at a hotel are usually on a business trip or meeting a lover. Ye Ranran couldn’t possibly be on a business trip, so the only other option was...
"Does Han know you’re here?" Su Yu asked, smirking strangely.
"It’s none of your business why I’m here." Ye Ranran didn’t want to bother with her and pretended not to see the smile on her face.
"If Han knew you were here, don’t you think he’d wonder?" Su Yu toyed with her phone as she asked.
"You’re really trying hard to ruin our marriage, Director Su, but you’re overthinking things. He knows I’m here." Ye Ranran looked at her scornfully.
That completely dismissive attitude irritated Su Yu. "You’re just a fallen rich girl. What do you have to be proud of? Han still hasn’t announced his relationship with you. Do you think he really cares that much about you?"
"That’s between us; we don’t need director Su to interfere. Also, I don’t like other women calling my husband so intimately. Director Su, please be mindful of that." Ye Ranran reminded her gently, with a sweet smile on her face.
Her appropriate laughter and gentle tone made her seem like a perfect lady of a prominent family. Su Yu, too, came from a reputable family, but she couldn’t find a single fault with Ye Ranran.
Jun Mochan’s wife. Ye Ranran indeed had the qualifications.
But why should she be the only one? What made her so special?
"You’re his wife, but do you know what he’s been dealing with lately?" Su Yu retorted lightly.
Ye Ranran’s face stiffened for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal: "What does that have to do with you?"
"Looking at you, I bet you don’t know. The company has been accused by the Xie family of a malicious takeover. The Securities and Exchange Commission is about to start an investigation, and the previous allegations against the Xie family were also suspected to be deliberate."
"I came here today to appease the SEC and some influential people. Don’t you know anything about all these?" Su Yu’s eyes were full of superiority.
"In reality, the only one who can stay and stand by his side is me. Who do you think you are?"
"Nobody ever doubted your capabilities, Director Su. But maybe he didn’t tell me not because I wouldn’t be able to help him, but more because he didn’t want me to worry." Ye Ranran’s tone was light, her gentle smile never leaving her face.
That unchanging expression was like wearing an extremely solid mask, one that no enemy could break, no matter how hard they tried.
Once again, Su Yu regarded Ye Ranran in a new light.
"What a lively conversation. What are you talking about?" A wicked voice came from behind them.
Hearing this voice, Ye Ranran couldn’t help but shiver. Why was Xie Yuan here?
"Ranran, you’re here too. What a coincidence! You were too busy last time and I couldn’t invite you for a drink. How about we make up for it today?"
Just then, Luo Qi came out of the restroom. Seeing Xie Yuan, she was shocked and quickly stood in front of Ye Ranran. "Why are you here again? What are you planning to do?"
"This is between Ranran and me. It’s not your place to interfere." Xie Yuan pushed her aside and tried to grab Ye Ranran.
Ye Ranran was faster, grabbing Luo Qi’s arm. "Let’s go."
