Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 390 Unexpected News

Ran Xueyi quickly took a shower and went to sleep next to Song Yu Han. Guo Yun was considerate enough to take up the big brother role to Little Zhanzhan and has been by his side whenever they weren't.

The next day arrived quickly and Adelle knocked her first against the door, waiting for Ran Xueyi to turn up.

"I expected you two to be so lovey-dovey but I didn't mean that you have to be stuck with him. What's going on?" Adelle couldn't help but complain as they went down to the lobby.

"Don't look at me. This question... shouldn't you ask that to the primary suspect?" Ran Xueyi threw the question back at her.

However, Adelle only flinched before whispering, "Do you think I'm a cat? Even if I have eight life left, I wouldn't dare gladly offer them to death."

As she said this, Adelle couldn't help but glance behind them where a tall man in casual attire was following them. Today, Song Yu Han wore a university style outfit that made him look younger and approachable. Not only that, his usually combed to the back sleek black hair was now hanging in front of his smooth forehead, almost covering his eyes.

One would even mistake him as some amateur youngster who was not good at being around people. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

"Is it that wrong to watch my wife work?"

Song Yu Han tilted his head to the side and watched them.

Adelle quickly shook her head and said, "Of course not, Big Boss!"

"Don't call me that right now."

"Yes, Big Boss!"

Song Yu Han was speechless and looked at Ran Xueyi who was holding back her laugh.

Ran Xueyi noticed him staring and disguised her smile with a cough, "Ahem, that's right, Adelle. You shouldn't call him that when he's now acting as my assistant. Instead, why don't you call him 'junior brother'?"

Adelle paled. Who wants to call the big boss junior brother? Are they so desperate to die? Quickly refusing to do as she was asked, Adelle was saved by the buzz of her phone.

"Let me take this call first." She paused to take her phone and pressed the answer button. "Hello? This is Adelle speaking."

The phone was not on speaker mode so Ran Xueyi didn't hear what was being discussed but Adelle's eyes widened as they continued their call.

After two minutes, Adelle finally ended the call and turned her body around to face them. With a stiff expression, she finally spoke, "Jia Li... Jia Li was found dead this morning."

Ran Xueyi heard her heart thud and she couldn't help but glance at Song Yu Han, who met her gaze and shook his head.

"Director Xiao will find another actress to play Jia Li's role. But surprisingly, the broadcast release will not be put on hold," Adelle continued, not noticing the tiny exchange between them.

"The investors must have demanded to push through the broadcast release and use this negative news as a hype material." Ran Xueyi didn't have any interest in what the investors were thinking since she was the top investor in the TV drama. However, it will still leave a bad aftertaste in her mouth when thinking that the drama will have to ride on Jia Li's death to hype it up.

The entertainment industry has always been like this. Nobody cared about an actress or an actor's life. They can be easily replaced or covered by another actress and scandal. And the most hateful thing in this industry was that people who love and smell like money will use another person's death to their advantage.

"Did all the investors agree to this?" Ran Xueyi asked her.

Adelle nodded. "Director Xiao wanted to call you but he's afraid that you'd be angry at him so he called me to inform you. Why do you think he did that?"

Ran Xueyi hadn't told Adelle that she invested money in the drama and sighed, "I helped fill in the funds in the film by investing. I told Director Xiao not to tell anyone."

This was news to Adelle and she murmured, "No wonder he's been respectful towards you."

"Anyway, Jia Li's... death, when was it announced?" Ran Xueyi went back to the matter. Director Xiao was only reporting to her what the other investor wanted for the film. As the top investor, she had some say to the film, but if all investors agreed to do something, she couldn't do anything about it.

"It was not announced. Jia Li's agency personally contacted Director Xiao about her death and didn't say anything else. They must have wanted to cover her death with another scandal so nobody would notice." Adelle went through her phone and searched for any related news about Jia Li and found none. "As expected, not even an article was written about her death. I guess she deserved it after what she'd done to all her victims."

"Let's not speak bad about the dead," interrupted Ran Xueyi and then she added, "Adelle, want you to keep quiet about this. Let's pretend we didn't hear anything."

Adelle also agreed to keep silent. She didn't want to be involved in this mess. Such a shocking thing actually happened to a vicious person like Jia Li. How dangerous can the people she went up against for her to be turned up dead?

Jia Li's death was a surprise and a mysterious thing to Ran Xueyi. President Yan could actually be so cruel to the woman he loved. But she couldn't really blame him either because if Song Yu Han dared to cheat behind her back, she would have done worse than just killing him and his woman.

"Let's go, everybody is waiting."

Ran Xueyi no longer wanted to think about Jia Li or President Yan. The grudge was already over and taken care of by the man she used and manipulated.

Jia Li played with her luck only for karma to prepare a coffin for her. It was already good enough for her to get out of her sight.
