Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 313 That Actress Is... Ran Xueyi

In the middle of the night, an ambulance pierced through the road where only a few private cars and public buses were rushing to their destination.

--Weewoo, weewoo.

The sirens continued to ring as they rushed towards a nearby hospital.

Meanwhile, Shi Lian was trembling as she hurried over to where Steffanie was parked. Steffanie glanced over at her with disdain but couldn't stop asking, "Did you do it?"

Tears flowed in Shi Lian's eyes as she was reminded of what she had just done. She... she really poured acid on Ran Xueyi! Shi Lian couldn't believe this and couldn't accept it. She wanted to deny her own poisoned heart and didn't want to admit that she was the same type as Steffanie, an evil person.

But the facts proved that she was not any different. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

No... she's different. That's right. She's only purging the evil and spoiled rich people on Earth. She was doing it for the sake of her father, nobody would blame her for it, right? Besides, Ran Xueyi came from a wealthy background, she could just request for a plastic surgery to recover her face. But if she doesn't do that, Steffanie will target her and her father!

Shi Lian continued to convince herself with justified reasons. And seeing her being like this only annoyed Steffanie.

"I'm asking you a question!" Steffanie shouted inside the car. "Did you or did you not do it!"

Anything else can happen. But Steffanie didn't want to let Ran Xueyi off easily!

"I... I... I did it." Shi Lian stummered. "I poured it on her."

"Are you sure?" Steffanie asked with her eyebrow raised. "Did you see it? Did you make sure that she'll be disfigured?"

Shi Lian nodded.

Seeing her nod, Steffanie felt smug as she leaned back with a smile. She glanced at the clueless driver and instructed, "Go back to my father's penthouse. I want to see him."

...

The next day, a flash news took over the entire country. A famous actress had an accident outside the film set of the TV drama she was shooting. The identity of the actress was kept a secret and nobody knew where she was hospitalized nor how she was doing after the accident.

Moreover, what kind of accident she met in the set was kept unknown.

However, in the White City, the set was enveloped with gloom as Director Xiao gathered everyone else to tell them an important announcement.

Director Xiao stood in front of everyone with a frown. As soon as everyone hushed, he said, "I am here to announce one good news and one bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"

His eyes fleeted over everyone's face and briefly fell on Steffanie's smiling face before he looked away.

"Director Xiao, are we getting censored by the Radio and Film Administration?" As the main lead actor, Shen Yi's worries were completely understandable. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

When everybody heard him, they couldn't help but start to worry as well and talk amongst themselves.

"The administration is still reviewing us and will finish their monitoring when everyone is finished shooting their scenes. Anyway, you guys don't have to worry about being censored since we didn't do anything wrong." Director Xiao dispelled their worries with just these words but no one forgot that there was still bad news and good news.

"We don't have enough time so I will start with the bad news." He paused for two seconds, waiting for anyone to object but no one did. So, Director Xiao continued speaking, "Everybody must have already heard of the news that took over the country. That actress is... Ran Xueyi."

"What?"

"Are you serious?"

"Hey, now that I notice, Ran Xueyi didn't come today. Could it be that..."

"No way! How can something happen to her when she's almost done with all of her scenes?"

The production crew grew anxious and their expressions were not good. Ran Xueyi was liked by everyone else because of how serious she was towards her acting and never had any mistakes when other actresses had to be called out for NGs countless of times, tiring and wasting the time of everyone. More than that, she was very generous and humble, never showing an air of arrogance that a popular and wealthy actress should possess when she's standing in front of the production crew.

Shen Yi also frowned upon hearing this, even Ran Yue was shocked.

Did something really happen to Ran Xueyi?

Although she hated her older sister, Ran Yue didn't think she'd be easily taken down like this.

Ran Yue hesitated for a moment and finally couldn't help asking, "Director Xiao, can you tell us what happened? Where is she being hospitalized right now?"

Director Xiao looked at her from where he stood and replied, "For the sake of privacy and for Ran Xueyi's fast recovery, I decided not to disclose where she's being hospitalized. But the good news is that she can be discharged from the hospital next week."

"How can this be?" One production crew reacted. "She helped us a lot during the filming, we should at least come and visit her!"

Others nodded and agreed with her.

"I know everyone wants to see her but even I can't come to visit her. What happened seemed to traumatize Ran Xueyi a lot."

? Shen Yi understood that Ran Xueyi didn't want to disclose her accident to anyone to avoid being crowded by paparazzis and the media. If Director Xiao really told them where she was hospitalized, they might have had some bad intentions and sold the information to some media reporters.

However, Shen Yi still felt that something was off and asked Director Xiao when the meeting was concluded. "Director Xiao, may I speak with you?"

Director Xiao stopped in his tracks and led Shen Yi to one corner where nobody was around. "What is it?"

Shen Yi still felt it wasn't safe to talk outside but since Director Xiao led him here, he could only ask, "Ran Xueyi's accident... Did Steffanie do it?"

Director Xiao's eyes widened and quickly grabbed his arm. "Are you crazy?"

Even though they were in a corner where there was nobody around, that doesn't mean Shen Yi could just say this. What would happen to him if someone heard it and reported it to Steffanie's father?

"I'm not afraid of her or her father. Director Xiao must have already know that someone is backing me too." Shen Yi looked in his eyes fearlessly. "My backer is much stronger than Steffanie's father so even if Steffanie complains, she can't do anything to me. However... I didn't expect for her to really do something to Ran Xueyi."

"What do you mean?"

Shen Yi frowned and whispered, "Last night, I came back to the set because I forgot my phone in the dressing room. That's when I saw Steffanie's manager with Ran Xueyi. Even though I saw them talking, I didn't see what Steffanie's manager did to Ran Xueyi and only saw her running towards the parking lot."

"Her face was so pale and it was as if she was being chased by a ghost so it remained in my memory. Initially, I thought that nothing was wrong, but when I saw that Ran Xueyi wasn't here, I had a hunch that something must have happened."

And adding Director Xiao's announcement earlier, Shen Yi believed that this matter can't be that simple.

Shen Yi knew Steffanie's character better than anyone since they graduated from the same class back in high school. Several girls who went against Steffanie suffered a lot but because of Steffanie's father paying them and their family hush money, no one dared to stand up against Steffanie.

Director Xiao sighed. "This matter... I can't say too much but don't get yourself involved in it. You're still young and rising in popularity. It is better if you remain clueless than be implicated by this matter."

Before Shen Yi could say anything else, Director Xiao patted his shoulder before leaving.

Director Xiao didn't expect that Shen Yi would notice that something was wrong in this incident. And surprisingly, he even saw something last night and talked to him about it rather than keep it a secret.

This... He should probably tell this to Ran Xueyi just in case she needed an additional weapon to use against Steffanie.

At this moment, Ran Xueyi's phone rang. It was from Song Yu Han.

Inside the hospital room, Ran Xueyi quickly picked up the call, "Hello, hubby, did you see the news?"

"I saw it. Which hospital are you in?" Song Yu Han asked.

Ran Xueyi didn't want to waste his precious time and said, "No need to come here. I'm alright, nothing happened to me at all! It's just a publicity stunt."

"Alright, I got it. So where is it?" Song Yu Han's tone was slightly colder.

"It's the hospital near the filming location. Room 215." Song Yu Han's tone was too scary, Ran Xueyi didn't want to anger him by refusing to answer.

Adelle raised her head from looking down on her phone and asked, "Who is it?"

"My husband, he said he's coming over."
