However, a few reporters had been mindful of Mr. He\'s action and definitely saw how he had ordered the bodyguard to escort the woman who unknowingly arrived.

But before they could make a move, the girl in question who was escorted by the bodyguard into the restaurant, leaving them.

"I\'m sorry for blocking you on your way to the restaurant." The moment Ran Xueyi entered the restaurant with the bodyguard, Mr. He turned around and politely smiled at her. "I am He Gui." He held his hand out to her.

Ran Xueyi looked at his outstretched hand and took it. "I am Ran Xueyi."

Surprise was written in He Gui\'s face as his brows rose to his hairline. The polite smile on his lips became genuine and he said, "Ran Xueyi.. The actress with the hottest traffic in the entertainment industry now?"

Ran Xueyi only smiled at that. She didn\'t want to admit being the biggest star in the entertainment circle today. There were a lot of other celebrities who reigned over the industry and Ran Xueyi was just another horse in the race.

"It\'s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. He." After exchanging pleasantries with him, she quickly left.

When Ran Xueyi walked away, He Gui\'s assistant stood beside him and asked, "Sir, why did you have one of your bodyguards escort her inside?"

As far as he knew his boss, Mr. He was not the type of person who would help other people just because he caught them in a difficult situation. Mr. He was a cruel man even to his own fiance, Miss Yin. Yet, he actually helped another actress?

Just what does his boss mean by doing this?

He Gui didn\'t respond to his assistant as his eyes followed the back that soon disappeared from his vision.

Hearing no reply from his boss, the assistant didn\'t feel awkward. For it was a normal occurrence to be ignored or not getting any response from Mr. He.

"Mr. He!" A middle-aged man in striped pants and white shirt appeared and walked over to them. "I heard you were visiting my humble abode. Thankfully, I hadn\'t left for my flight." He looked around the man in front of him but didn\'t see a female standing beside him. A frown appeared on his forehead, but he quickly covered it with a friendly, welcoming smile. "My secretary told me you came with your fiance. It seems she saw it wrong."

He Gui articulated a hum but heard the restaurant owner gleefully continue, "By the way, Mr. He… I think today might be my happiest day in years."

"Of course!" exclaimed Mr. He\'s assistant. "Mr. He\'s presence in your restaurant will surely boost your place\'s reputation amongst the elite society."

He Gui was the cousin of the country\'s former prime minister. He did not only graduate from the prestigious Oxford University, he is also a businessman by his own right. He had hundreds of millions in his assets, and finally, his family was part of the elitist society in Asia.

How can anybody not feel honored and filled with pride if someone such as He Gui comes to your establishment? The assistant pridefully thought to himself.

The restaurant owner flashed a smile, but the corners of it were slightly forced. "Definitely!" He could only cut off the things he wanted to say.

What he truly wanted to say was… There is a bigger boss in his restaurant!

But seeing Mr. He\'s assistant thrusting his chest forward and pointing his nose to the sky in arrogance, he couldn\'t say a word. Offending Mr. He was not a wise thing to do, after all.

…

Ran Xueyi had already forgotten about this short encounter. She headed to the room that Song Yu Han texted her, but since it was a room intended for the VVIP\'s, when she reached the curtain separating the common area and VIP area, a staff of the restaurant stopped her.

"Do you have a reservation?" asked the staff.

Ran Xueyi was about to say yes when the crystal bead curtain parted and Song Yu Han said, "Yes, she does."

The staff lady didn\'t recognize Song Yu Han, but seeing him coming out of the VIP area spoke volumes. She no longer blocked Ran Xueyi\'s way and let them pass.

"Why did you come out? I was on my way to you." Ran Xueyi followed Song Yu Han to another hallway lit by yellowish-light coming from the chandeliers attached to the ceiling.

"You didn\'t reply to my message for a long time. I got worried when I heard from the waiter that there was a commotion outside of the restaurant."

"I see." The two finally arrived in the room. Song Yu Han took her coat and hung it by the door then sat down together with her.

After eating a sumptuous meal served by well behaved servers, Song Yu Han placed an envelope on top of the table. When Ran Xueyi raised her brows, he explained, "Printed screenshots of Bei Honglin\'s conversation with Fan Ning. There are also conversations he exchanged with his artist, Li Na, who replaced you in the film that Fan Ning wanted you to fill in."

Ran Xueyi finally understood. She took the envelope and opened it. The conversations between Fan Ning and Bei Honglin were quite normal. From what she heard, the two had gone back together after meeting up at the restaurant while in talks with the supposed role she wanted back then.

It wasn\'t unexpected. The two had a child together and it would be only right for them to be responsible parents and give their child a complete family. However, Ran Xueyi\'s concern and focus was not centered on this. For there were disturbing conversations and photos that followed Fan Ning and Bei Honglin\'s messages.

When she moved to read the exchange between Bei Honglin and Li Na, there was one thing she could describe it; disturbing.

"Bei Honglin initially had owed large debts from a shady organization. He has yet to pay what he borrowed until now." Song Yu Han added as he watched her read the countless receipts Guo Yun gathered from the organization that Bei Honglin had borrowed from.

Getting these receipts was extremely easy. Guo Yun directly called the head of the organization and they willingly released all private receipts of Bei Honglin\'s loan.

Ran Xueyi was struck dumbfounded when she saw the amount Bei Honglin borrowed from a company called Neocash Lending. A hundred million yuan was not a small amount of money. It could let a big family live leisurely and luxuriously for many years if they spend it smartly. If Bei Honglin started a business, he might be able to raise his money.

However, Bei Honglin\'s bank account only has three million inside it. Where did the rest of the money he borrowed go?

Frowning, she asked him, "Where did he spend all his money?

Song Yu Han shrugged. "Gambling."

"No wonder–"

"And girls." Song Yu Han continued before she could finish her words. He grabbed his fork and stabbed a fruit before moving it closer to her lips.

Ran Xueyi opened her mouth and gladly accepted the fruit. Then, she said, "Gambling and girls… It took him five years to spend his money?"

Song Yu Han shook his head and presented two fingers.

"Two years?" Ran Xueyi slowly exclaimed.

However, Song Yu Han shook his head again.

Ran Xueyi paused. "Two–two months?!"

Yet, Song Yu Han shook his head again. Then, he confessed, "Two days."

"He spent all his money in two days. He gambled half of his money to a casino, but lost all of it in one game. Then, the other half of the money was stolen by a girl he had taken to his bed."

Ran Xueyi fell silent when she heard this. She didn\'t think that Bei Honglin\'s luck when it comes to money was superbly horrible. He loaned money from a shady company, gambled half, then lost another half of it. In just two days he became a multimillionaire, but he also became penniless right after.

She didn\'t know if it was karma striking at Bei Honglin for all his bad deeds. However…

"But what does this have anything to do with Li Na?" From the exchanges between Li Na and Bei Honglin, it looked like they had known each other very well. Even to the point of sending pictures of each other in suggestive poses and speaking in intimate tones.

Song Yu Han placed down his fork and stared his eyes at her. A smile bloomed on his lips as he revealed, "And that\'s where the interesting part comes in…"
