The old patriarch and matriarch of the Ran family were hard to please. Anything they didn't like, even if you force them and coerce them to like it, they would rather die than do what others tell them to do.
But no one actually dared to force the Ran family's old couple since the two were influential figures in the business world. And even though they were only bigshots in the city and not in the Imperial Capital, they still received much respect from others.
And this is basically why the Yang family wanted to connect the two families. They didn't obtain their wealth through their ancestors but through hard work, however, this only proved them to be nouveau riche families that didn't even enter the eyes of so century old second generation wealthy families or even those who reared heroes in the past.
Ran Yue felt a sense of danger. She knew how exactly her grandparents behaved towards her and her parents. They never showed their displeasure towards them yet they also never showed that they liked them. It was lukewarm or more accurately, they acted as if the three were just part of the branch family and only Ran Xueyi was worthy of their attention and affection.
Ever since she was young, Ran Yue didn't like that Ran Xueyi got all their grandparent's attention. She gets all the gifts and dresses because she would always cling to them like a leech and show an adorable side of herself to them which disgusts Ran Yue so much. At that ti, Ran Yue would always quarrel with her older sister and call her a hypocrite.
But only Ran Yue knew how much regret she felt for not acting adorable and clinging to her grandparents like her older sister.
If she also did that and got her grandparents' affection, would she even collude with other people and sche against her older sister? She wouldn't do that if only her grandparents considered her as one of their potential heiresses.
But her jealousy towards Ran Xueyi's fa and success was an eyesore to Ran Yue. She didn't want to see her older sister standing at the top and step on her.
After waiting for two hours and still, Ran Xueyi didn't appear, the three finally decided to leave Chairman Yi alone, who was beaten up by Yang Baihua. Ran Yue separated from the two before going back ho.
When she arrived, she saw Mother Ran and Father Ran sitting in the living room.
Father Ran saw his youngest daughter coming in and put down the cup of coffee in his hand. He patted the spot next to him on the sofa and said, "How is it? Did you et your older sister? What did she say?"
Ran Yue dejectedly sat down. She threw her purse to the corner and replied, "That slut didn't even show her face! If this continues, won't we lose a lot of face when everyone knows that Ran Xueyi will be the successor of the Ran family?!"
Seeing how angry her daughter was, Mother Ran patted her hand and gently said, "Don't worry about this too much. Your father and I will do sothing about this matter. Your grandfather and grandmother might want to consider Ran Xueyi as their heiress but your father is still there. Do you think the shareholders will agree to let a young woman who never knew how to manage a company be the next successor? So, you don't have to worry about anything. Just get so rest and we will buy you the latest bag from that brand you really like."
After hearing such a reassuring speech from her mother, Ran Yue cald down. So what if Ran Xueyi got their grandparents' affection and approval. She got her parents behind her back and will support her. And her mother was right. Even if they made Ran Xueyi the heiress, the shareholders will never agree to it.
With that in mind, Ran Yue finally let go of this matter. As for the Yang family, it wasn't her problem to solve so she should just focus on her acting career.
Several days later, Ran Xueyi, who everyone thought to be hiding, finally reappeared. This ti, she posted on her Weibo account.

Ran Xueyi's last post was just her sharing a line from a song and a wink emoji. However, it was swept by a storm as her fans drove and camped on her post, sending her likes and comnts. At that ti, she didn't really confirm her coback to the acting industry and just said she'll think about it. However, it was enough for most of her fans to have delusions about their idol's next coback.
But of course, having anti-fans were normal and having a water army blackening her and sending negative ssages and comnts were even expected. If an idol or an actress didn't have any of these, they couldn't be considered popular. Veteran actors, popular idols/singers, and acting emperor and queen, they all experienced this type of situation. So, Ran Xueyi, an actress who had almost 30 million followers on Weibo, also didn't care about them.
But after a few days. Maybe even weeks, the fans didn't know what happened to Ran Xueyi as she didn't announce or post anything after her most recent post. No news article or paparazzi was able to capture anything from her. Thus, Ran Xueyi's spotlight soon dimd slowly and was forgotten.
And so, having only a few thousands of people noticing her newest post wasn't abnormal. These few thousands were just passersby. However, not even a few minutes later. Ran Xueyi's Weibo page almost crashed as fans and anti-fans gathered there.
Senhe's official Weibo page was tagged in Ran Xueyi's post. If you're soone who loved designer clothes, Senhe was a brand no one would ever forget and never heard of. After all, it was a very popular and trendy clothing brand that took over the world for decades. They were picky on who to choose as their ambassadors and only the best and top idols and actresses were able to squeeze themselves into this brand.
Ran Xueyi, who was inactive for almost 6 years, was undoubtedly a surprising choice. For 6 years, she hadn't taken any role or shot any comrcial and sponsored advertisent. What could Senhe, a famous clothing brand, be thinking by choosing her out of hundreds of popular idols in the industry?
While everyone was going crazy over the news of her joining hands with Senhe, the woman they have been tagging and questioning was currently watching a web drama, lazily sitting on the sofa as she popped another popcorn in her mouth.
