502: Parvenu

Parvenu

More than the headline concerning her being seen by some people going out and buying expensive things with a man, Ran Xueyi was even more puzzled by the word 'Parvenu'.2

In what way, in what direction, and in which eye did they see Song Yu Han looking like one? 

Ran Xueyi pictured Song Yu Han with an awkwardly worn business suit, leather shoes, gold accessories, and a bulging medium-sized rectangular bag clutched between his armpit while sunglasses were perched on top of his head. 

Then, he would walk in a wide stride and legs, looking exactly like a gangster in B-rated movies. He would move his hand around and tell the shop employees with a wave of his, "From here to there... Pack them all for me."

As if that wasn't enough, he would glare at whoever stared at him or even smugly show off his gold accessories as if to announce he was a wealthy businessman. 

If someone did this in the province or a small village, it would probably work. But if it was done in big cities like the capital or Suzhou City, these people will only look like they're annoying third-rate rich people who had just tasted the world of money. 

Of course, Song Yu Han was not like that. He may have experienced poverty at a young age, but technically, he came from a wealthy background. Both his parents came from renowned great families in the capital albeit the fall of the Lu family in the past. Still, the Lu family has been striving to retake the glory and dignity that had been stripped of them these recent years. 

Just what was the post owner thinking when they posted this headline? Which entertainment tabloid was this? They didn't even research a bit more and directly posted it. 

Usually, headlines or gossip like this would take at most 24 hours before they will be posted. The most rushed ones can only be released a little bit more than 3 hours later. But everything has to be reconsidered. The tabloid team and management will ensure each post were being monitored and reviewed before it was sent out for the public's eyes. 

But it hadn't even been 2 hours since they left the mall?! 

Ran Xueyi didn't know whether she should criticize the post owner and the tabloid company, or should she start preparing herself for the incoming calls and troubles these headlines would bring to her. 

As she had already expected, her phone screen changed from the front page of the headline post to the screen set when someone called. 

It was Adelle.

Ran Xueyi answered and said, "Hello?"

Adelle seemed to be out of breath as her heels echoed to her mic: "Where are you? Did you go to the mall with the big boss?"

Adelle naturally knew that Ran Xueyi would only go out with Song Yu Han. So, she didn't doubt her.

Ran Xueyi sighed softly, "Yes, I did. We just arrived at our hotel room."

The sound of footsteps stopped and Adelle's voice sounded surprised, "Do you mean to say this was captured this morning?"

"Yes," replied Ran Xueyi.

Hearing this, Adelle was confused. Was this an indeliberated post? 

As she was thinking, Ran Xueyi curled up her lips into a smile and said, "This post must have been sent without their company or boss's permission. Probably, someone who got a tip and received a monetary benefit for doing it. Otherwise, they wouldn't go against their policies."

Paparazzis and journalists, especially gossipmongers people, will only hold onto especially taken and juicy news until someone takes the bait. They would wait for somebody to take notice and then strike a negotiation. If the person involved reached out, the person who held something in their hands would then make their price. 

Whoever pays the highest will win the item.

It was a public market or an auction. It could even be considered a threat or blackmail. However, this was the way of the entertainment world. Things like this are extremely normal and happen a lot.

Thus, Ran Xueyi concluded that the person who posted this without being reviewed received a huge sum of money and other benefits. 

Adelle fell silent for a second before she concluded, "I'll ask around to see if I can find the person who posted this. I'll take care of this matter so, you don't have to worry about it."

Ran Xueyi was not worried. If her relationship with Song Yu Han was revealed this time, she didn't want to suppress it or deny it. She would proudly announce that they are married to each other.

But she also didn't stop Adelle from looking for this person and who paid them. 

"Something happened?" A deep and manly voice sounded from behind her left ear. 

The air coming out from those lips tickled her a bit and Ran Xueyi had to scoot over a little bit to the side to hide her reaction, before looking behind her.

Who knew when he stand behind her? He was just sitting on the sofa with their son, but looking at it now, he seems to have been standing behind her for quite a while now.

"Where's Zhanzhan?"

Song Yu Han straightened his body and then sat beside her on the carpeted floor, "He went to the restroom to pee." He answered her first before asking again, "Someone posted something about you again?"

Ran Xueyi guessed that he overheard a little bit of her conversation with Adelle, and nodded, "Someone saw us together earlier at the mall. They posted a headline about us which is a bit lackluster in my taste. But they only said they have witnesses. Photos and videos proving their claims aren't there. However, once the pan became too hot and tipped over, they will definitely show some photos or evidence to prove their claims."

If things heat up even more than now, photos of them will be released to ensure that the hype won't die down. 

And...

They must be waiting for her response so, they are biding their time.
