Background

Song Ran is a famous Huaguo actress with numerous representative works and hit songs, including “Love Must Learn to Let Go.” She is regarded as a capable performer rather than solely a celebrity personality 228.

She first seeks Ye Yuan’s medical help for her seriously ill mother. After arriving on Fishing Bay Island with an entourage and offending Ye Yuan, Song Ran apologizes for the intrusion and remains behind alone rather than abandoning treatment 229 231. Her mother is later recovering from her illness, and Ye Yuan provides aged ginseng and medicine to support her recovery 1018.

Before meeting Ye Yuan, Song Ran left her former company after an incident connected to Zhang Wujin and one of his friends. Her company subsequently blacklisted her; Wang Xuehong intervenes after Ye Yuan explains her situation 232 233. Ouyang Yushan later helps her terminate her Wang Film and Television contract and brings her into her own company 1100.

Appearance

Song Ran is a strikingly beautiful woman whose celebrity status makes her immediately recognizable even when she tries to keep a low profile.

• Frequently wears oversized sunglasses when traveling or appearing in public 1095 1939.
• Her white evening gown is described as graceful and elegant 1131.
• Her skin improves markedly after using Ye Yuan’s externally applied Nourishing Beauty Pills, attracting Ouyang Yushan’s notice 1100 1101.
• Following Mental Power fusion, her complexion becomes noticeably smoother and more youthful even without makeup 1927.

Personality

Song Ran is resolute when the people she cares about are involved. She remains on Fishing Bay Island despite embarrassment and uncertainty because she refuses to give up on finding treatment for her mother 231. Later, she persists in remaining aboard the White Dolphin despite Ye Yuan’s efforts to send her away for safety 1688.

Her public image is professional and controlled, but she is far more relaxed around Ye Yuan. She treats him as a junior brother after he studies under her father, jokes with him freely, and eventually makes little effort to hide her affection 1095 1757. Her feelings initially leave her insecure, particularly because Ye Yuan is also involved with Li Shiyun, yet she remains direct about what she wants 1674 1688.

She is compassionate toward children and animals. Moved by Liu Zixuan’s circumstances, Song Ran bids 500,000 yuan for the girl’s painting, later chooses to adopt her, and promises to preserve her name and identity 1136 1143. She is also fiercely career-minded: rather than relying entirely on Ye Yuan’s influence, she insists on learning to manage professional matters herself 1894.
