Chapter 82 - Mother Yang's Brilliant Idea

Father Yang was so angry that he threw the bat after his son. The loud sound of it crashing against the door echoed in the entire mansion. The servants watching silently on the side flinched and lowered their heads, afraid that they would be the target of their master's anger.

"Look at how you spoil that son of yours!" Father Yang scolded.

Mother Yang wouldn't take this lying down so she replied, "He's also your son!"

"I don't have a stupid son like him!" Father Yang retorted. "Do you even know how many people have been laughing behind me because of him? Now, those people won't even care if they mocked me in front of everyone! Just look at how much face I've lost because of that stupid child of yours!"

Mother Yang bit her lips and bitterly stared at him. "Do you think you're the only one who has lost face in front of your friends? When I go out, these bitches who think they're better than the Yang family have been laughing at me because of that whore from the Ran family!"

Father Yang glared at his wife's words. But Mother Yang didn't stop complaining and blaming Ran Xueyi as if she was the one who did the wrong here.

"Ever since she ran away from home and canceled the engagement with Yang Baihua, everyone has been avoiding me. That old bastard Ran isn't any better! He even went as far as to cancel the proposal we were working on with the Ran Corporation and the investors who wanted to invest in our products are now turning their back on us!"

Mother Yang's face reddened as she fumed about what happened this past week. 

Father Yang, who originally wanted to explode from anger, shut up after seeing his wife blowing up like a nuclear plant. At the mention of the Ran family, he also grimaced upon thinking of the several defeats they experienced.

Tens of millions were lost, reaching almost hundreds if they combined all the deals and investors that were supposed to come in their way. Only because the moment everyone heard about Ran Xueyi canceling the engagement with their family's Yang Baihua, everybody started to back away from them.

Father Yang walked to the sofa and sat down carefully. He raised his head and looked at his fuming wife and said, "We need to meet Ran Xueyi and talk to that girl."

"Meet her? Didn't she stand us up?!" Mother Yang's head was starting to hurt from all the anger she was feeling.

After all the hard work they did to force Yang Baihua to call Ran Xueyi, they all expected that she would come around and meet with them. However, Ran Xueyi didn't arrive and even turned off her phone.

"How about we call Ran Mo Zheng. Surely, he would be able to convince his daughter to stop messing around." Father Yang said and reached for his phone.

Mother Yang nodded. "That's right. And even if she doesn't want to, they can still pressure her and force her to come back." Suddenly she thought of something and said, "Honey, I have an idea."

Father Yang stared at her. "What?"

Mother Yang slowly smiled as she finally said, "Why don't we skip over the engagement and have Yang Baihua marry her immediately?"

Father Yang was shocked and stared at her in disbelief. "What are you talking about? Do you think Ran Xueyi, who already wanted to cancel the engagement, wants to marry our son? Besides, Song Qian is pregnant. What do you think will happen if Old Master Ran finds out?"

Mother Yang clicked her tongue. "Honey, do you think I haven't thought about that?"

"Then what do you plan to do?"

"If I remember correctly, Ran Yue's birthday is about to come. We'll use her birthday as a cover to fool Ran Xueyi. Little did she know that the birthday will be a wedding. In front of everybody, do you think that bitch will be able to refuse our son? Old Master Ran won't be able to say anything too since this would offend a lot of people if he tried to stop the wedding once he realized what's really going on." Mother Yang felt proud of herself and smiled, "What do you think of my plan, Honey?"

"Brilliant!" Father Yang's expression brightened up and he held his wife's wrinkly hands. "I've never thought you could be this smart!"

His wife's plan was perfect. Hitting three birds with one stone. Ran Xueyi, Old Master Ran, and the Ran Corporation. If they succeed in this plan, the whole Ran family and their assets will fall in their hands!

Father Yang was extremely ecstatic, he completely forgot that he should be beating up his son for impregnating another woman.

...

At the same time, Ran Xueyi, who had no clue about what the Yang family was planning, was currently lying in the arms of her husband. 

After crying so much, she finally calmed down and fell asleep, still in Song Yu Han's embrace.

Song Yu Han silently stared at her when he received a call from Special assistant Guo.

He answered it and coldly said, "Is it done?"

Special assistant Guo's indistinct voice came from the other side of the phone. 

A minute later, Song Yu Han replied, "You've done a good job.... Yes, fire everyone who witnessed what happened last night... As for the cast who came last night with my wife, tell them to look for another hotel."

After they hung up, Song Yu Han tossed the phone on the side and felt the woman in his arms move. He carefully patted her back, making sure that she wasn't awakened by his voice. 

When he saw that Ran Xueyi's sleep wasn't disturbed, he leaned forward and kissed her closed eyes. Then, he leaned his head back to the back of the sofa and also closed his eyes.

But soon after he closed his eyes, Ran Xueyi smiled. 

Little did he know, the woman he thought was sleeping, was actually awake and heard everything.
