Chapter 104 Yang Baihua And Ran Yue’s Unexplainable Thoughts

By the time they left the restaurant and got inside the car, Ran Xueyi finally snapped out of her thoughts when she felt a hand land on her left leg.

"Are you alright?" Song Yu Han asked in concern, seeing how she had been silent after the call. "Have you and your friend still not reconciled?"

From what he heard from the call, Ran Xueyi and that friend must have been in conflict and only just recently got in contact again.

Ran Xueyi slowly nodded, wanting to forget about what thoughts were swirling her mind and bothering her.

But then, when she looked at the man sitting on the driver's seat, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you have friends... who you are close with but don't know anything about their pasts?"

Song Yu Han was surprised. Inside his mind, he could almost guess what was bothering her.

He slowly nodded and lazily but firmly said, "Yes... but mostly, it was them who didn't know anything about me."

Ran Xueyi felt quite interested. Her eyes twinkled like the stars in the clear night sky. She stared at him as if urging him to continue telling the story.

Song Yu Han laughed. "It's nothing great. My friends are quite boring if you meet them."

"Boring? Why?" Ran Xueyi wondered if it was a good way to describe a friend like this?

Song Yu Han's hand that was on her left leg caught her hand. He fiddled with her fingers before answering, "They're all busy with their companies and life. Some of them are already married and have kids of their own."

"Don't you at least meet with your friends once in a while?" Ran Xueyi asked.

Song Yu Han nodded. "We do... but I'd rather not meet them for now."

Ran Xueyi let him play with her fingers and asked with her eyes why he didn't want to meet them.

Then, Song Yu Han tapped her nose and said, "Why would I meet with them when they will only brag about their wives and children?"

Song Yu Han remembered that one time when a friend of his appeared at their reunion. That friend came with his wife while cradling the seventh month old baby in his arms. At that time, only a few of their group remained bachelors. However, the group would always tease him and persuade him to look for a wife and get himself a child.

Ran Xueyi finally understood. This also happened in her circle and classmates from college. They would always brag about their boyfriend and husbands and parade them in a party, showing off their wealthy husband and make the <anno data-annotation-id="967cf815-f7f8-cc16-0426-5e35782b5cda">single dogs</anno> become <anno data-annotation-id="cff99312-d47f-6402-84f2-6c00dae4e14a">light bulbs</anno> in the party and watch these couples have fun in envy.

"But... you're no longer single. You're married, remember?" Ran Xueyi smacked away the finger still tapping her nose.

Song Yu Han chuckled. His deep voice sent a delicious shiver on her body. He grabbed her hand and kissed the back of it.

"My baby is right...," Song Yu Han smiled after kissing her.

...

After having been punched in his eye, Yang Baihua took a long time to recover from the pain.

Right now, his eye was bruised and swollen a lot, it looked like somebody put a black mud on top of his eyes.

"Oh my god! What happened to you?" Ran Yue had just finished her audition when she received Yang Baihua's call.

However, Yang Baihua screamed at her through the phone and all she heard was him blabbering some nonsense about being punched and that he couldn't see.

And thus, Ran Yue had to run quickly to the place where Yang Baihua found to rest for a while as he waited for her.

But Ran Yue didn't think that she would witness such a shocking thing.

Hearing her approaching him, Yang Baihua grabbed Ran Yue's forearm tightly and angrily said, "It was Ran Xueyi! That cheap woman did this to me!"

Ran Yue's mouth fell off because she couldn't believe that Ran Xueyi would do this to him. "Are you sure? There's no way she could do this to you! Even if she did, her strength is too weak and too little for your eye to grow twice as big as it originally looked!"

"So are you telling me I am lying to you when my eye is already like this?" Yang Baihua snapped at her.

Ran Yue shut her mouth. That's right. Why would Yang Baihua lie to her? Besides... Ran Xueyi left early and Yang Baihua must have waited or encountered her.

"I won't let her be! This time, I'm going to make sure she suffers for what she did to me!" Yang Baihua fumed and punched the wall next to him.

Ran Yue tried to calm him down and patted his shoulder. "Yang Baihua, stop punching the wall! What if your hand bleeds? Let's go to the hospital first."

Yang Baihua paused in his action and really stopped after being persuaded by Ran Yue. He looked at her through his right eye that wasn't punched by Ran Xueyi. He saw how worried she looked at right now and knew that it wasn't fake. A sudden thought appeared in his mind but he crashed it as soon as it formed.

'No... I already have Song Qian and my child... Why would I have these thoughts for my fiance's younger sister?'

Yang Baihua did not only calm his temper, he also calmed down his mind and the growing desire he wanted to erase for Ran Yue. He was afraid that things would be more complicated if he entertained such ideas.

,m Ran Yue, however, continued to show her concern and wrapped her hand on his arm, dragging him to her car so they could go to the hospital. Her thoughts were hidden and unknown.

The two of them got inside the car in silence.

Author has something to say: Uh oh... I guess Karma will soon come around?

Ps. Honestly, I don't know why there's too much cheating schemes here. *Facepalm*
