Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Ran Xueyi headed towards the location that Doctor Qin had messaged to her. It was a small rental office in the middle of the capital.

Since it was located in a very populated area where commercial stores were located, many people walked by each other and didn't bother looking at the strangers around them. This helped Ran Xueyi a lot to disguise herself and act as an ordinary person passing through this street.

As someone whose fame was slowly rising due to the scandals that the people who tried to scheme against her and helped her already dimming popularity slowly fire up, Ran Xueyi was still worried that people would notice and recognize her thus, she wore a mask all the way to the small rental office.

When she arrived inside the office, Doctor Qin and another man who looked like he was around the age between twenty-five and twenty-eight stood behind him.

"Is this her? The reason why you left the hospital?" the man behind Doctor Qin asked. His eyes glanced over at Ran Xueyi as if he was grading her qualities.

Ran Xueyi didn't think too much of the man's gaze and was directly shocked by what the man said instead. "Doctor Qin resigned?"

Was it because of her? Or did that person force the doctor to leave?

Somehow, this made her feel that the situation was really complicated.

As if he could guess what she was thinking, Qin Mo waved his hand and replied, "No, I already planned to resign from the hospital. It was just perfect timing that someone made trouble and I could use that reason to leave the hospital."

Ran Xueyi stared at the young doctor to search his face whether he was lying. The young doctor possessed a handsome feature that could be passable if he entered the entertainment world. He could at least become popular due to his face if he wasn't talented in acting. However, it was his eyes that were clear and lacking of any schemes probably was his most redeeming quality.

He didn't lie to her.

Finally, Ran Xueyi released a sigh. She didn't want to be responsible for forcing the doctor to leave the hospital. Now that the explanation was done, she could release some of her guilty conscience.

But still, Ran Xueyi knew that the doctor was pestered by someone who wanted to know about the reason why she went to the hospital that day.

The man who had yet introduced himself moved to the corner and excused himself. "You two talk... I'll go and get something for you to drink."

He left towards another room adjacent to the office they were currently in. Ran Xueyi heard the clattering sound of glass and water pouring in it coming from that room and she guessed that it was a mini-kitchen.

"Doctor Qin, I apologize for letting you suffer on behalf of me. I didn't expect that someone would make trouble with you because of me." Ran Xueyi really didn't think that someone would go as far as confront the doctor she consulted with and demand answers from him.

Doctor Qin glanced at her expressionlessly and his lips moved to say, "Miss Ran doesn't have to apologize. The check you gave to me earlier this morning is already enough to pay for the trouble that I suffered through. There's no grievances nor pain that I experienced."

"On the other hand, I would like to ask... Why is that person so persistent to know your examination result?"

Qin Mo was more curious about this than anything else.

Ran Xueyi shook her head: "I'm not sure... I haven't found out the identity of the woman who came after you. So, I don't know what was the reason behind their actions."

"Cao Haoyue."

Suddenly, Qin Mo named the woman who disturbed his morning.

Ran Xueyi heard him and also looked up at him, feeling surprised all over again.

Cao Haoyue? This name seemed a bit familiar, but she wasn't sure why it felt like that.

"Does Miss Ran know anyone named Cao Haoyue? She's the woman who came to me this morning." Qin Mo continued to identify the person.

Ran Xueyi was about to shake her head once again, but suddenly, she couldn't do it anymore.

The name Cao Haoyue wasn't familiar to her. It was the name Cao that had more meaning to her.

If Ran Xueyi remembered correctly, the stepmother of her husband also has a surname 'Cao'. Could it be related to her? But why would Madam Song try to get involved with her? Ran Xueyi was certain that she never had any contact with Madam Song nor had she made eye contact with her during the Old Patriarch Song's birthday party. Moreover, at that time, it had been a few weeks since the birthday party, why was she trying to get to her now?

While thinking, the other man had already finished making their drinks and carried the tray over to the office before putting it on the coffee table. He moved the cups towards each of them and sat down beside Qin Mo.

Since Ran Xueyi was silent and thinking deeply into this situation, the man also took his time to observe before moving his gaze away to stare at Qin Mo.

Leaning towards the other's ear, he whispered, "Mo, this lady is too beautiful even with her mask on. I wonder if you can ask her to remove her mask so this young master can have a look?"

Qin Mo's answer, however, was to glare at him and stomp his foot on the man's foot that was placed next to him.

The man squirmed in pain and painfully retracted his foot before glaring at Qin Mo. "Mo, you're ruthless! I'm merely curious, why do you have to step on my foot!"

Qin Mo no longer paid attention to him, but said to him, "Careful of what you say, Lu Che. Or else, you'll get struck by lightning before you know it."

His mysterious and filled with other meaning words were heard by Lu Che, but he couldn't understand what the other was talking about. He could only guess that Qin Mo had taken interest in this beautiful masked young woman and was showing sovereignty towards him in front of him.

Tsk... What an Alpha!

[A/N: Lu Che is saying this because Alpha tend to be possessive towards the person/mate they're interested in. Not literally saying that Qin Mo is an Alpha or anything. Just the behavior.]

However, Qin Mo's thoughts were quite different from what he was thinking. Lu Che might have not noticed... However, Qin Mo was quite keen towards Ran Xueyi. In high society, not many knew of Ran Xueyi but that doesn't mean no one knew her. Especially after Old Patriarch Song's birthday, there should be some people who could still remember her.

Qin Mo only heard about the young master Song introducing a young lady to the Old Patriarch Song from his friends. However, he was never interested in gossip and was more intrigued in medicine and professional topics. Hence, he only remembered that the patient he met that morning could be the same 'Ran Xueyi' being talked about by his friend after he left the hospital.

Though he didn't mean to probe, he wondered if young master Song was given a green hat by Ran Xueyi since it was only recently that she was introduced by Song Yu Han to the Old Patriarch Song, but she was already pregnant for 9 weeks.

Well... it didn't matter.

For as long as he wasn't the one given a green hat, he didn't really care if Song Yu Han wore it.

...

Poisonlily has something to say: LMAO the two has different misunderstandings. However, the best was Song Yu Han getting a green hat!

Mini theater~

Reporter: Is it true that you were given a green hat by your wife?

Song Yu Han: What green hat? That's my baby, okay!

Ps. Green Hat is another term for being 'cuckolded' or 'cheated' on.
