Chapter 423 Peacock's Tail
The next day, Ran Xueyi woke up to someone smothering her with kisses on the face. She thought it was Song Yu Han since they sleep in the same bed and reached out her arms to hug him tighter. But when she realized the difference in size, she opened her eyes and saw Little Zhanzhan smiling cheekily at her.
"Good morning, Mommy!" Little Zhanzhan rubbed his face against his mother\'s bosom.
"Good morning to you too, my baby." Ran Xueyi hugged him tighter and rubbed his chest before looking behind her where Song Yu Han should be lying on that spot. "Where\'s your daddy?"
"A\'Yu went out with Brother Yun."
Ran Xueyi knew that Song Yu Han held up a lot of his work just to stay with her to the CK show. She felt guilty for overworking him and thought she should give him something as a gift for all of his hardwork.
"Have you eaten your breakfast already?"
Little Zhanzhan nodded. "Daddy prepared yoursh too!"
Song Yu Han never forgot to take care of the two of them even through all the things he had to handle. He would always find time to serve the big bosses in his heart.
Ran Xueyi really owed him a lot, but they were married. She just needed to make up to all the troubles he had to take care of because of her.
"Mommy, are you leaving today?" Little Zhanzhan asked while looking at his mother eating her meal. He wanted to go outside to play again, but he knew that his mother was even busier than daddy and surrounded by a lot of people. So, he asked her in advance.
Ran Xueyi nodded and said, "Yes, darling. I will meet my new boss for my new film."
"Oh…" Little Zhanzhan lowered his head to look down on his nails.
Seeing his crestfallen face, Ran Xueyi guessed what he was thinking. Her son was too mature for his age and it was all her fault. She made him so considerate of her that he would understand why she had to leave his side from time to time.
It breaks her heart just thinking of her lack of attention to her son\'s growth and emotions. Truth to be told, Ran Xueyi wanted to slap herself for letting him grow like this, but she told herself that there will be time in the future to redo all her mistakes.
"Baby, do you want to go with mommy?" Ran Xueyi asked.
Little Zhanzhan looked up and blinked, "But mommy has to go to work."
"Yes, but the director won\'t mind you being by my side," said Ran Xueyi. "So, will you go with mommy to work today?"
"Really?" Little Zhanzhan\'s eyes immediately brightened when he heard this.
An hour later, Ran Xueyi arrived at the cafe where Daren Wang had sent the address to her. It was already 9 in the morning, a little bit early for her, but she still went there on time. The only problem was that usually at this time, more people would be inside the cafe.
Holding her son\'s hand, Ran Xueyi pushed open the cafe and was slightly surprised that the place was empty. Aside from the table at the furthest corner near the wall where there were three young men and the cashier, there weren\'t any people in there.
"Are you sure you still want to take this film?" Adelle just entered the cafe and asked this question to her.
Ran Xueyi nodded. "I wouldn\'t have come today if I wasn\'t."
Adelle heard this and spotted the three young men sitting at a table. "I see Daren in that table. Let\'s go."
As they got closer to that table, the three men\'s hushed voices sounded clearer now.
"Oh shit… I forgot to use perfume this morning, she won\'t notice how I smell like detergent, right?" said the young man with green hair and wearing a white shirt.
"At least you smell like detergent, Daren overslept and wore the shirt from last night." A stern looking young man with black hair opened his mouth.
"Brother Mo, please don\'t remind me." Daren cried lowly as he hung his head lower. Though he already calmed down after getting Ran Xueyi\'s call and couldn\'t sleep. The next morning, he realized he forgot to prepare his attire for their meeting and had to come out of their dorm room still wearing the shirt he wore from last night, afraid that he would be late.
He was too embarrassed to look up when he saw Ran Xueyi approaching their table from afar.
"Good morning… You are Director Daren, right?" Ran Xueyi asked.
Daren gulped and slowly raised his head. Then, he nodded: "Yes, I am Daren Wang."
"Nice to meet you, I am Ran Xueyi." Ran Xueyi reached for his hand for a handshake. Then, she turned to look beside her, "This is my manager, Adelle. She\'s the one who got a copy of your script and sent it to me."
Daren\'s eyes lit up. The manager turned out to be his savior! She\'s the one who let Ran Xueyi see his script after all! He vigorously shook their hands before inviting them to sit down.
Mo Xiang and Xian Yue watched their roommate make a fool of himself and sighed. But they could relate to him since they also admire Ran Xueyi as one of her fans. They still couldn\'t believe that the real Ran Xueyi was standing in front of them, but in order not to scare her away, they controlled the urge to ask for her autograph and take pictures with her.
Xian Yue noticed the little boy Ran Xueyi was holding and blurted out, "Oh, what a handsome boy! Is he your little brother?"
At his question, the entire group went silent. Xian Yue clamped his mouth down and blamed himself for speaking so loudly! So, what if he\'s a handsome young boy? So what if he\'s someone\'s little brother?
However, he could no longer take back the words he said.
Ran Xueyi looked at the green haired guy and nodded. She was about to speak but a tiny and cute voice spoke first, "Mommy, why does big brother\'s hair look like a peacock\'s tail?"
