Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Chapter 35 Senhe Fashion House

Two days earlier, Ran Xueyi was just enjoying her life as a newlywed bride. But unfortunately, Song Yu Han had to go on a business trip in America and hadn't come back for a few days now. So, now, she had the villa for herself.

She had no work, no role to play, and nothing to worry about from back home, so she was really relaxed as she continued to sleep in and play games on her phone.

But surprisingly, that night on the third day Song Yu Han was gone, she received an email from Senhe's main branch. They told her that they wanted to invite her as their new ambassador since the last one's contract with them was already over. They shared to her how much they wanted to make her the new face of their brand. However, Ran Xueyi didn't immediately reply to their invitation.

Ran Xueyi, herself, knew that she hadn't done anything in the industry for the past 6 years. This also proves why even though she posted her possibility of working again as an actress, no big and famous entertainment company reached out to her to sign for a contract. In their minds, signing a fresh, young, and talented woman as an idol, singer, or an actress was a better choice than signing a veteran actress who disappeared from the spotlight for 6 years.

Moreover, who was to say if Ran Xueyi's talent in acting was still there? What if her acting skill has dulled and rusted, incapable of drawing out audiences and viewers? Won't this only make them dig their own graves and waste the money they invested on a movie or drama she starred in?

But nevertheless, Ran Xueyi was not impatient at all. It was also true that she received some offers from some entertainment companies, however, she wanted to pick the best one among them. They didn't have to be the biggest one, just the one who would respect her choices and wouldn't force her to do things she didn't like.

However, until now, none appeared to offer her this kind of contract.

And When Ran Xueyi first saw the contract Senhe sent over, she was surprised.

Aside from the things that both parties had to look after and be careful of violating the contract, the amount they attached for her ambassadorship was surprisingly high even. It would be understandable and more reasonable if they offered her an amount corresponding to a second-tier actress, considering she was not as popular as she was back then. However, they still sent her an amount deserving for a top and A-list actress.

This kind of situation was too confusing and Ran Xueyi didn't want to think that they really valued her because of her past achievements. There must be something at play here.

And just when she thought that something shady was going on, Song Yu Han, who had been missing for a few days suddenly sent her a message. He told her that he was close friends with the president of Senhe company and they had been looking for a new ambassador. However, the fashion designer, who was also the president's daughter, was extremely picky and wouldn't accept anyone as her model. That was when he merely mentioned her name in passing with little expectation which led that fashion designer to search Ran Xueyi's name.

The fashion designer was finally able to find someone who was very close to the image she wanted for a model of her dresses, and adamantly requested the PR to reach out to Ran Xueyi to be the next face of the high-end luxury fashion house.

The next few days after that fateful coincidence led Ran Xueyi to sign with them and post on Weibo with an attached photo of the dresses Andrea Torres, the fashion designer, sent to her personally.

The shooting for a magazine and commercial was next month. So, Ran Xueyi wasn't worried about anything within that month.

After setting Weibo ablaze with a single post, Ran Xueyi threw her phone in the corner, completely ignoring it as she continued to watch a dog-blooded* web drama playing on TV.

Aunt Shu entered the house, carrying a bag of groceries with a few leaves of vegetable sticking out from it. Ran Xueyi abandoned her favourite spot on the sofa, put down the bowl of popcorn on the coffee table before taking the grocery bag from the old housekeeper.

Aunt Shu happily let her take the bag away and followed her to the kitchen. While Young master Song was away, the two of them had been bonding in the kitchen. Of course, Aunt Shu was the only one who cooked while Ran Xueyi watched.

Looking at those slender and beautiful fingers, Aunt Shu felt disheartened on making them do any chores. But that wasn't all. Aunt Shu could still remember when she asked Ran Xueyi to cut the garlic cloves only to find a disaster inside the kitchen. The garlic cloves were unpeeled and uncut. It was still whole as she cut them with the blunt side of the kitchen knife. And she even had the guts to ask Aunt Shu that the garlic was too hard!

If it were someone else, Aunt Shu would have already driven them away from the house with a broomstick. Thankfully, it was Ran Xueyi, who later confessed she never used a knife to cook.

Hence, these past few days, it was Aunt Shu who cooked their meals everyday.

"I'm really sorry, Aunt Shu. If only I knew how to cook, I would be able to help you," said Ran Xueyi as she put the bags on the kitchen counter, feeling slightly embarrassed.

Aunt Shu shook her head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Ran. You're Young master Song's wife, how can I let you do this kind of work. Besides, I feel like I'm doing a sin if I let you work. What will happen if your fingers get cut? Won't my ancestors feel ashamed of myself and not take me as their descendants?"

Ran Xueyi was already used to how Aunt Shu teased her and laughed along with her.

"Unfortunately, the young master isn't here."

Ran Xueyi sat down next to the counter and watched Aunt Shu prep the ingredients. She stared at her and asked, "Is he really good at cooking?"

She remembered that Song Yu Han cooked breakfast the first night she stayed there. However, she wasn't a critic and gourmet who could tell how food tastes different from the other.

Aunt Shu nodded her head: "The young master has been cooking for the madam ever since he was young. He even applied for a culinary class just to learn how to cook. I remembered there were some renowned chefs who praised the young master for days after tasting his food."

Upon hearing this, Ran Xueyi nodded in understanding, not knowing how to reply. She was amazed by what Aunt Shu said about his skills, however, it was a bit awkward after hearing her mention his mother.

Song Yu Han's mother has been dead for years and there was quite a bit of scandal during that year that most upper-class families heard of it.

Finally, Ran Xueyi found her voice and said, "Mother-in-law is so blessed to have him as her son."
