Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Chapter 225 Are You Sleeptalking?!

Ran Xueyi stayed inside her car for a long time and it was only when she saw that it was already 30 minutes later did she move her car and drove away. Thankfully, that spot she parked earlier was an emergency parking spot where cars could stay there for an hour.

Ran Xueyi rushed home to think carefully on what she has to do to solve all her problems. There were too many problems she's facing right now and each one of them urged her to take action.

After deeply thinking about it, she finally decided that she couldn't do this alone.

However, who should she call?

Song Yu Han?

If he finds out that she's pregnant with his child, he would surely try everything he could do to protect them. This was something that Ran Xueyi already knew. However, she didn't want to burden him any longer. Ran Xueyi knew that she was being nonsensical and selfish right now. They are husband and wife now and shared deep feelings for each other despite the short time that they spent together.

However, she also knew that she couldn't continue relying on him forever. She must do something. Grandfather Song's words didn't matter, Ran Xueyi already knew that the world they're living in was far more dangerous and deadlier than the world she's stepping into.

She would only become a live target for his enemies to take Song Yu Han out of the picture.

Ran Xueyi didn't want that to happen.

Song Yu Han was now someone very important to her, more than her family could even become in her heart. She didn't want anything and anyone to hold him back.

And most importantly, she didn't want him to lose anyone again.

Thinking like this, Ran Xueyi sighed dejectedly while standing before the glass windows which showcased the neon city lights that were flickering and sparklings like tens of thousands of stars.

She realized that she was too weak... Financial wise or powerwise, she still couldn't stand on an equal foot with him nor could she protect him against the enemies that he would face.

Then, what should she do?

Ran Xueyi leaned her forehead against the glass window in front and closed her eyes painfully.

At this moment, her phone that was placed on the coffee table suddenly lit up. A message from a long time friend came just in time to give her a ray of hope and relief.

Ran Xueyi said, "Jian Yiling."

On the other side of the phone, Jian Yiling frowned and replied, "What's wrong with you?"

Ran Xueyi was surprised and said, "What do you mean?"

"Your voice sounded like you've eaten something difficult to swallow and you're about to cry. And don't you dare lie to me or I'll hang up this call," Jian Yiling said while she narrowed her eyes.

Jian Yiling couldn't call herself Ran Xueyi's best friend if she couldn't even find out her friend's mood of the day. Due to their closeness and having no secrets between each other, Jian Yiling could more or less know Ran Xueyi like the back of her hand.

And because Ran Xueyi was her first best friend, Jian Yiling was even more observant and clear about Ran Xueyi. Thus, when she heard Ran Xueyi's voice, she could already tell that something happened and was troubling her best friend.

Ran Xueyi didn't expect that Jian Yiling could really tell if there was something wrong with her and felt choked up. The emotions that she was feeling from the moment she heard her pregnancy until right now finally exploded.

Ran Xueyi said, "I... I'm pregnant."

There was no sound coming from the other side of the phone for a full minute. Only the sound of light breathing and other than that, there was nothing else.

Just when Ran Xueyi was about to look at her phone and check if the call was disconnected, she heard Jian Yiling's voice once again.

Jian Yiling tapped her finger on the desk in front of her and finally said, "Which bastard?"

Ran Xueyi: "Huh?"

"Which bastard did it and left a child in your womb without taking responsibility?" Jian Yiling's sharp eyes glared at the distance as if she could see an image of a man leaving her best friend alone after leaving his seed inside of her.

Ran Xueyi felt that there was something wrong with what Jian Yiling said, especially the vicious words that came out of her mouth.

Feeling the need to explain the story from the beginning before Jian Yiling blows up, Ran Xueyi, just like in the past, didn't hide anything from her.

From the beginning till the end, Jian Yiling listened carefully and fell into contemplation.

After telling her what had happened in these past few months, Ran Xueyi felt drained and fell on her side in the couch, curling herself into a ball.

"So what you're saying is that you just found out that you're pregnant and that the IVF you took from before should have failed. But it didn't."

"And you're already married."

"And you haven't told your husband about your pregnancy."

"And your husband's grandfather talked to you earlier about the situation of their family, suggesting for you to leave before you get hurt?"

Ran Xueyi nodded, "Yes, you got all of it right."

Another silence sounded from Jian Yiling's side.

This time, however, it took more than a minute until there was a sound from her.

Jian Yiling's cold and harsh voice said, "Are you sleeptalking? Why haven't you told your husband about your pregnancy? Why do you even make things even more complicated by thinking about unnecessary things? What does your husband's family matters have anything to do with you? If they want to kill each other then let them kill!"

Ran Xueyi: "..."

Jian Yiling added: "And that ridiculous family of yours. Do they even have a brain cell left inside their heads? They don't even show any shame after ditching and using you? They just pop out of nowhere to cause trouble? And that Young master Yang... I've been dying to tell you this, if I see him again, he should hide or else I would cut his thing off so he can't fool another innocent young lady with his stinky charms!"
