Song Yu Han glanced at the computer screen with the electronic copy of the script that Special Assistant Guo had sent to him.
As he previously said, the script did contain so bed scenes. Though they weren't too explicit, it still has gimmicks that would make anyone's heart pound while watching it.
Pressing his fingers against his temples, Song Yu Han took a breath slowly before exhaling.
These past few weeks have been extrely tiring for him. Actually, he hadn't had any good sleep for almost three years. After separating with Ran Xueyi and sending her away to protect her, it beca extrely hard for him to close his eyes and sleep comfortably.
Tapping the surface of the table, Song Yu Han glared at the script before reaching his phone. However, his hand paused and only hovered above it for a few seconds before he retracted it back to lay on top of the table.
It wasn't ti yet.
Soon, he would be able to et her again.
...
Ran Xueyi spent her month-long day off together with Xiao Zhanzhan and Jian Yiling. She thought she owed this much to her son who's been left at ho when she was working to shoot films.
When she fild her movies, she would finish her scenes quickly before heading ho to spend more ti with Xiao Zhanzhan, but she still thought it wasn't enough.
This month, she will dedicate her ti to her son.
Days quickly passed by, Jian Yiling beca their tour guide as they went to different cities and foreign countries to fully enjoy this long awaited vacation. Xiao Zhanzhan was elated every single ti they hopped into another country or city. He beca more active and acted like ordinary kids.
Even though Xiao Zhanzhan did not make any new friends, he just wanted to be by his mother's side rather than play with other kids his age.
"Hey, are you busy?"
Jian Yiling entered the room and saw Ran Xueyi and Xiao Zhanzhan playing clay. The little boy ford an unidentified creature that has four legs. Jian Yiling could only guess that it should be a dog.
Ran Xueyi held another clay in her hand as she turned to her. "No, I'm not. Why do you ask?"
A black letter appeared in Jian Yilings hand before she handed it over, "I got this letter from my subordinate. It was emailed to your na but used my office building as an address. I thought you might have so idea where this letter ca from."
Ran Xueyi took the letter and scrutinized it for a second. The smooth and scented letter looked exquisite. However, there was no na or address of the sender.
"Could it be a letter by a fan?"
Mumbling, Ran Xueyi stood up and took a paper knife from the cabinet. She tore the letter open and took the paper inside.
Inside was a white card with the sa scent as the letter, and there were words scribed in it.
"An invitation to the Royal Court Masquerade... Tomorrow night at 9 pm," Jian Yiling said loudly behind Ran Xueyi.
Since Ran Xueyi didn't turn away from her, she was able to see the words written in the paper.
Jian Yiling exclaid, "What the hell... your fan is so rich they can even give you sothing like this?!"
Ran Xueyi furrowed her brows and asked, "What do you an?"
Jian Yiling explained quickly.
The letter that Ran Xueyi received was an invitation. However, it was not an ordinary invitation to a party or ball. It was one of the rarest and most expensive events in the world since it was hosted by the royal family in Ren Country.
"From what I've heard, the royal family will only invite twenty people outside from their circle and cliques. Of course, the people they invited naturally are not ordinary. But I could not get one even after I tried to date one of the princes a few months ago."
Jian Yiling stared at the letter in Ran Xueyi's hand with a heated gaze. She was only short of stealing the letter from her. Thankfully, she held back before she could act on her desire.
Ran Xueyi heard of the Royal Court Masquerade. However, she was not impressed or shocked like Jian Yiling. She focused on why this extrely rare invitation letter ended up in her hands. Who could have sent it to her?
Unlike Jian Yiling, she didn't think it could be one of her fans. What kind of person would easily give up this once in a lifeti opportunity to be invited? Moreover, this wasn't a fake invitation. It has the emblem of the Royal Family and from what she heard, the Queen, Lilibeth Von Pierce, personally wrote the twenty invitation letters herself. Imitating the letter was impossible as the emblem was made with a code that could be decoded once the letter was presented during the ball.
Once caught due to imitating the Royal Family's emblem and signature, a death sentence would be handed over no matter where state or country that person who was caught lived. The state and governnt where they ca from also could not intervene since the Royal Pierce Family was one of the three remaining blue-blooded in the world.
"Are you going? If you're not, there's sobody here who can co."
Jian Yiling was not very subtle towards her intentions but that was why Ran Xueyi liked her as a friend. Unlike other friends who tried to hide their intentions and desires, she liked honest people who can voice out everything shalessly.
Ran Xueyi laughed, "I don't want to go. The ball will be attended by people I'm not familiar with. However, I'm curious to know who sent this and why they had to send it? This invitation is one ti, one use. Who would possibly refuse to attend and give it away instead?"
Jian Yiling had to also think about this upon hearing Ran Xueyi. "Do you want to investigate?"
Ran Xueyi shook her head, "If I want, I could just dispatch my own people to investigate this."
"Ah, that's right. You're the Boss of Lobo Guild, I always forgot since you're usually using the identity of an actress in front of everyone else."
Ran Xueyi nodded. "But doing an investigation is too late. It will take a few days till I get an answer and it'll be hard since the sender even got it into your security."
"Then, what are you going to do?" Jian Yiling couldn't comprehend what she wanted to do.
"Since the sender gave this letter without telling their na or where they ca from... They naturally want to co and et them myself. Now that my vacation is about to end, I don't see why I shouldn't attend. When the ti cos, I also want to et soone who could easily get an invitation from the Royal Family. Maybe I can beco friends with them," Ran Xueyi explained.
"Hmm... That's a great idea," Jian Yiling agreed with her.
Both of the two have wide connections in the Underworld and in addition to that, Ran Xueyi ca from the background of an actress with extensive interrelation inside the Entertainnt circle. The only thing they are missing is a connection to the business world as well as to the three Great Royal families in the world.
With tonight's upcoming masquerade, Ran Xueyi could make deep connections within the royal family. And if she couldn't do that, she could use the person who sent the invitation letter to her advantage.
If possible, Ran Xueyi wanted the sender to be a female rather than a male. If it was a woman, she could beco good friends with them.
But if it was the opposite and the other had other intentions...
Ran Xueyi could only promise to hold herself back and let him go with a few broken bones.
"Well since you're going... Can I do your makeup and dress you up?" Jian Yiling stared at her with fire burning in her eyes.
Ran Xueyi froze and wanted to reject her offer. The last ti Jian Yiling did her makeup and dress up was a spectacular sight. The makeup was beautiful, but she couldn't say the sa to the dress. How to describe it... it wasn't ugly, but it was sothing else.
But Jian Yiling looked like she won't take a 'no' for an answer.
Surrendering to her fate, Ran Xueyi could only say, "Alright, but please keep it to a minimum."
Jian Yiling innocently blinked her eyes, "What do you an? Of course, I'll turn you into a beauty that can make even the princesses and female guests inside feel ashad when they stand beside you!"
With that, Jian Yiling turned around and excitedly left the room like a blast of wind, leaving a slightly fearful Ran Xueyi, who was worried of what will be the outco of her dress tomorrow night.
Hopefully, it wouldn't be so revealing.
