Chapter 359 A Nobody Like Me

"What happened, mommy?" Little Zhanzhan was the first one to speak.

Ran Xueyi was helped by Song Yu Han to stand up steadily on her own feet and glanced at her son, saying, "Nothing, mommy just missed her steps."

It was a lie. But Ran Xueyi didn't want her son to find out about the dirty and messy things that happen in this kind of social gathering where everyone in there was up to something.

Too bad, who made her son to be such a clever and perceptive child?

Little Zhanzhan had a frown etched on his face as he glared at the lady who was standing behind his mother earlier. He pointed his finger at her and said, accusingly, "You pushed mommy."

The lady who was suddenly pointed at by a small child felt awkward and ashamed for what she had done in front of everybody. But then, she remembered she came from a reputed wealthy family, and didn't want to back down against a child.

"Don't lie, little boy. You're still too young but already used to lying. Makesme wonder who brought you up." The lady lifted the corners of her lips upwards as she took a glance at Ran Xueyi, who now wore a cold expression on her face.

"What... don't tell me this is really your child?" the lady provoked. She was completely looking down on Ran Xueyi, a celebrity who married someone. "Not only are you married to an unknown man, you also birthed to such a lying brat?"

p The words the lady had just spoken were simply too rdiculous and harsh, but nobody stood up for Ran Xueyi. The ladies around that was previously praising and admiring Ran Xueyi acted as if this was just a normal conversation between two ladies in their social classes.

Unfortunately, they forgot that Song Yu Han was standing behind Ran Xueyi.

Song Yu Han parted his lips to speak and let the woman know who she was messing with, but then, Ran Xueyi squeezed his hand to stop him from stepping forward.

This was a fight between two women, Ran Xueyi would not allow him to fight her battles. It would be too much if he ended up doing that for her.

"What's wrong with being married? Is the world so different that being married has now become a sin?" Ran Xueyi countered with a polite smile. "Or are you thinking that celebrities are made of ceramic and wax, and that we are not allowed to marry or give birth too? If you didn't know... Us celebrities are not dolls and puppets. "

"When did I ever say that?" The lady was obviously annoyed at Ran Xueyi's smart remarks.

"Then, stop looking down on us." Ran Xueyi took a pause before continuing, "I would have left this alone if you hadn't said anything about my son. But you just called him a liar. Do you feel great bullying such a small child, Miss Ma Yili."

"You!"

"What the heck, did she really say that?"

"Isn't that a bit too much? She called him a liar even though we all saw what she did."

"She did push that woman down, but she's calling the boy a liar because she got caught. Isn't that a little bit humiliating."

Ma Yili felt ashamed when she heard the surrounding people whisper amongst themselves. She didn't think that they would turn their words against her when previously, they were having as much fun as she was having when they looked at Ran Xueyi with eyes full of disdain.

In their eyes, Ran Xueyi was a celebrity not worthy of their attention. They thought she had gotten into the party only because she had some connections with the party's host. There were a lot of families who was called 'Ran' in the capital, but the most notorious was Ran Yiqing's family. However, that Ran family he belonged to was slowly declining because of his clumsy son, Ran Mo Zheng.

Besides, they only heard and met Ran Yue, not Ran Xueyi. This made them believe that Ran Xueyi was just an extra brought to the party to entertain the wealthy sleazy men in the society because she was a celebrity.

Ma Yili's intention to target Ran Xueyi, a low-class, to make the party even livelier was not wrong in their eyes.

But what they didn't know was that Ran Xueyi did not only belong to the Ran family that Ran Yiqing painstakingly built in his younger days, she was also a company owner and wife of a powerful man in the capital.

"So, what if I pushed him down?" Since she couldn't escape scrutiny and criticism from other people, Ma Yili decided to go through her previous plan and humiliate Ran Xueyi even further. "He's just a child of a nobody like you. What? Are you going to sue me for calling him a liar? Can you even afford it?"

"Besides, are you not scared that I'll spread this knowledge about you having a child this big already to the press? Instead of trying to show a tough appearance just because you got into this party through your shady connections, you should worry about being able to face the camera again!"

The viciousness in her words would scare anyone. In the world of the rich and wealthy, no matter whether you're in the right, once you come from a poor background, even the law could turn against you.

Naturally, the things that celebrities like Ran Xueyi worried about were a bit more complicated than being an ordinary person. A celebrity could turn the world into his or her enemy.

The confidence and arrogance that Ma Yili was showing was brought about by the knowledge that Ran Xueyi could do nothing to her.

"Miss Ma's words are such an eye-opener." Ran Xueyi looked at her with no change of expression. The smile of her lips still remained as she told her, "Not only once did you throw false accusations in my way. You did it twice already. Calling my son a liar and telling everybody I only got into this party through my shady connections..."

"... Miss Ma is right. I'm nobody... So, I shouldn't be afraid of being unable to face the camera."

Ran Xueyi stepped forward towards Ma Yili and leaned to whisper, "But can you afford seeing your family's business go down because of a lowly nobody like me?"
