Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 384 President Yan’s Discovery

Sitting alone inside a private room in a restaurant didn't feel so strange as now. Especially when you're about to meet the man who helped the person who wanted to ruin you.

Ran Xueyi, however, did not have a choice. She was curious why President Yan wanted to meet and talk to her. And on top of that, she was wondering what they were scheming now?

She waited for another ten minutes before a knock sounded from the door. Ran Xueyi called them to enter and glanced in that direction to see who would come in. Will it be the waitress? Or will President Yan finally stop making her anxious and wait for his arrival?

"Apologies, I was caught in a traffic jam and was ten minutes later than our meeting time."

Fortunately, it was President Yan who arrived.

Ran Xueyi smiled without it reaching her eyes and said, "It's no trouble. I enjoyed the scenery from the window anyway."

The location of the restaurant was in the heart of the city where the most luxurious establishments were situated. The colorful lights down the city flickered with life as the night life in the city became more booming.

"I didn't know which is more worth looking at..."

Suddenly, President Yan uttered as he took his seat.

Arching her brows, Ran Xueyi asked, "What do you mean?"

President Yan curled his lips and told her, "Compared to the city scenery in front of us, I think your beauty is much more interesting to look at." 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

"I'm married..." Ran Xueyi pointed out immediately.

This time, President Yan chuckled dryly and apologized again, "Sorry if I sounded like I was hitting on you. But it's the truth. I didn't expect you to look... so beautiful off screen. I thought actresses and celebrities would depend on the filters and professional editing to make themselves look fresh and spotless.

"It's probably because you've never broadened your view and limited it to the things around you."

She flashed him a sardonic smile.

"Perhaps..."

He said in a lone tone as he glanced up at her again.

"Maybe I should widen my perspective and look deeper than what the eyes meet."

He continued to say mysteriously.

Ran Xueyi was not bothered by his gaze. Though it was directed to her, the way he looked at her was not one who you would interpret as admiring one. Rather, it was the kind of gaze one would use when you found an exotic thing prancing in front of you.

As much as she could let him observe her, Ran Xueyi didn't want to be treated like a specimen about to be examined.

She leaned her hands stretched on the surface of the table and released a sigh.

"I do hope you didn't call me just to make a new discovery that you can actually explore the world, President Yan."

"Of course not..."

He drawled before tilting his head slightly to the side.

"Though, I did find some discovery from you."

"And that is?"

Ran Xueyi was growing bored and tired from his nonsense.

"How did you meet Song Yu Han?"

Ran Xueyi was startled by his straightforward question. She hadn't expected he would strike a straight ball at her after saying so much nonsense. But how did he know?

"Are you wondering how I found out?"

Again, President Yan showed her that he was no ordinary guy. It seems that she underestimated President Yan a bit too much after meeting with so many idiots trying to court death by mindlessly pushing themselves to go against her.

Perhaps, President Yan was no idiot. But just blinded by love?

"Yes, nobody really showed any interest to know who I was seeing. And even if they do, there's nothing they can find out."

Ran Xueyi didn't try to deny that she knew Song Yu Han only because President Yan must have already found something that connected her with him. So, what's the point of lying and acting clueless?

"Hm, it's not too hard to find out. Well, for me, at least," he bragged.

Ran Xueyi frowned. There's no way that is possible.

Then, an idea entered her mind and she had to smile at his bluff.

"It's the photo... You recognize who I was with in the photo."

This time around, it was President Yan's turn to look surprised, then he schooled his expression and frowned, "You've been spying on me?"

"It's only fair to spy on the person who spied me first." Ran Xueyi shrugged and leaned back to the back of her chair, "President Yan... why did you really call me to meet you?"

The man across from her dipped his fingers behind the lapel of his suit jacket. He grabbed something from within without taking his eyes off Ran Xueyi and when he finally pulled what he was looking for, he placed them on the table between them and spread them out.

Two figures were revealed, standing close to each other in a posture that one would assume they were engaging in an intimate kiss.

It was the photos that she deliberately let the spy take on that night.

"What is the meaning of this?" Ran Xueyi narrowed her eyes. "Are you blackmailing me by using these photos?"

Instead of answering, he did something that surprised and stunned her from speaking more.

The table was provided with a set of teacups and a pot of tea where there was a candle burning a small flame underneath it to keep the tea warm while waiting for their order to come. And the man before her raised the pot and took one photo before setting it on fire using the flames from the candles.

Ran Xueyi wondered if he had lost his mind. Why would he burn the material he could give to Jia Li to ruin her?

"What are you trying to do?"

Ran Xueyi didn't know what he wanted by doing this. Besides, she didn't believe that he didn't make a copy of it and created this show to make her trust him.

But why would he want her trust? That was the strangest of them.

Just what does he want?
