Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn
Chapter 280 - Chapter 280 Big shot this scene is overplayed

Chapter 280: Big shot, this scene is overplayed. Chapter 280: Big shot, this scene is overplayed. An Lan repaid her brother’s debts, yet this group of relatives turned every trick to stuff the money into their own pockets.

They own several houses, but what about An Lan?

She’s six feet under!

“Boss, when do you plan on going after this kid?” Sun Ling looked through the information from Shi Lan’s hands, feeling sorry for the late An Lan from the bottom of her heart.

If she had a brother like that, she’d beat him to death before taking her own life, going down together.

“After I wrap up my scenes, I’ll have Huo Zhao go catch the guy. This time, I want him to experience the terror of being dominated by his sister,” Shi Lan said, then hummed, “There’s a bunch of people online saying An Lan set a bad example for their brothers with how she treated Little Demon King. OK, so this sister is going to establish her authority. See if they dare to follow suit?”

“They wouldn’t dare. If they really could do it, they wouldn’t take out their negative emotions on you,” Sun Ling replied.

“The Demon Lord of Mayhem fell into my hands; too bad for him. Even if he’s a complete waste, I can set him straight,” Shi Lan declared.

Let that little waste have a few more days of peace because after that, he’ll have no good days left.

In fact, Huo Zhao started scouting the areas frequented by An Yang as soon as he received the task to capture him.

Despite only being nineteen, this kid had the ability to hear and see in all directions, a likely skill honed from dodging debts.

A regular person would indeed find it hard to keep an eye on him.

An Yang was frail and tall, making him appear even more gaunt, the spitting image of an African refugee.

From his mannerisms, Little Demon King was all about the hip-hop style, walking with a swagger, and never serious for a moment. His face was always caked with heavy makeup, and his wrists and neck jingled.

This kid was actually not bad at singing. Huo Zhao went to listen to him sing at the bar where he performed the first night he was tasked with the job, but his character was skewed, completely lacking integrity. Over the days that Huo Zhao observed him, he would buy lottery tickets whenever he had money and even got chased around the streets by his creditors a couple of times.

He must have never thought about how miserable he made his sister, who he pushed to the edge.

And now he’s still trying every trick to con money out of people.

…

Three days later, The Queen’s scenes were officially wrapped up.

Yan Shixiu’s flowers arrived as promised, along with a small card for his fiancee.

Upon seeing the card, Shi Lan put it away. Although both were busy, Uncle Yan hadn’t forgotten these small details, which pleased the young miss.

Everyone gathered for a photo to commemorate the occasion, with Chen Beini clinging to Shi Lan’s arm and refusing to let go. However, upon seeing the flowers in Shi Lan’s hand, her brow furrowed, “Are these roses dug out from an ash pit? So black and dismal, who sent these? Cursing someone?”

“These flowers come from Halfeti, Turkey, and are quite rare and difficult to cultivate. I really like them,” Shi Lan explained while looking at the flowers, “The flowers are innocent. After all, the language of flowers is something humans imposed on them, they’re quite blameless.”

After hearing Shi Lan’s explanation, Chen Beini deployed her ability to hedge, giving a thumbs up, “Whatever my husband likes is special. Upon a closer look, these roses are quite beautiful indeed.”

Young Miss: “…”

Sun Ling: “…”

At this moment, Gu Chengyu approached Shi Lan and handed her a business card, “I don’t know where else I can help you, but this lawyer is really good. He has fought many contract disputes for artists. I hope it helps you.”

Shi Lan did not reach out to take it, simply saying, “I’ve said it before, you’ve already repaid your debt to An Lan. I don’t need anyone’s help. Time will tell. Hopefully, when we meet in Jianghu again, we’ll all be the people we truly want to be.”

After speaking, Shi Lan and Gu Chengyu shook hands in farewell.

As for Chen Beini, Shi Lan gave her a look and said, “Stop dragging this out. You need to concede when it’s time to concede. If you really don’t mean it, better make it clear sooner rather than later.”

Chen Beini didn’t respond, her eyes reddening. She rubbed against Shi Lan’s arm and with a crying voice said, “Can you come to see me when I wrap up my scenes?”

“I’ll see if I have time,” Shi Lan replied.

“Then you must come.”

Because that day, Chen Beini and Gu Chengyu would wrap up filming together, and she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to hold herself together.

“Also, if President Yan bullies you, just tell me, and I’ll expose him on Weibo.”

“Mind your own business, we’re doing fine,” Shi Lan patted Chen Beini’s head, “I promise you, we will meet at the top.”

Chen Beini hugged Shi Lan tightly and nodded emphatically.

Shi Lan said goodbye to everyone on the crew, then packed up her things and left the film set with Sun Ling.

Although it was only three months, for Shi Lan, it was the place where her emotions were reborn.

Before leaving, Shi Lan also took away many specialty items that the crew members’ families had sent.

While expressing their regrets, everyone wished her happiness in farming.

Moved, Sun Ling couldn’t help but both cry and laugh.

The big shot had finished her act.

…

Sun Ling brought Shi Lan and her belongings to Yan Shixiu’s apartment. With no current work arrangements for the big shot, Sun Ling could also go home for a little while to see her parents.

Actually, Sun Ling was quite afraid the big shot would leave her behind, so before leaving the apartment, she made her stance clear to Shi Lan: “Boss, even if you no longer work as an artist, I can still be your assistant. I’m up for farming too, so please don’t leave me behind, okay?”

Shi Lan was dealing with the pain from the Ferrari on her leg and looked up to reassure Sun Ling: “Do you always forget who pays your salary?”

Sun Ling thought about it and agreed.

“Dr. Sun, does it make you uneasy to have time off?”

After hearing that, Sun Ling scratched her head with a smile: “I just lack a sense of security…”

“If you really have nothing to do, come with me to the detention center tomorrow,” Shi Lan pulled the Ferrari off her body and held it in her hand, “Let you see how a female big shot settles accounts.”

“Okay, I’ll come over to pick you up early tomorrow,” Sun Ling said, clearly excited.

After Sun Ling left, Shi Lan set the Ferrari down on the floor; at that point, the gold gradient cat ran out and chased the toy around.

Shi Lan played with the cat for a while, then sat down in the living room and messaged Yan Shixiu on WeChat.

Shi Lan: “I’m back at the apartment.”

President Yan: “I have a meeting in the neighboring city tonight. Go to sleep if it’s late.”

Shi Lan didn’t reply to President Yan again. After washing up, she returned to the bedroom and began to detach from her role. Despite being exhausted, for some reason, lying on a bed infused with Yan Shixiu’s scent, she grew more and more awake.

In fact, Yan Shixiu had already returned from the neighboring city and was at the manor supervising construction work.

The manor was already built, so remodeling it wasn’t difficult.

Moreover, the thousand-acre vineyard he’d planned to deal with was now left untouched–the missus had said she wanted to farm, hadn’t she?

So he decided to leave it all for her.

And the real reason he wasn’t returning to the apartment was because of the tattoo on his abdomen; he intended to give Shi Lan a surprise.
