Chapter 285: 285 Cleaning House Chapter 285: 285 Cleaning House As he stepped out of the alley, he was knocked down by a woman on a motorcycle.

An Yang climbed up from the ground, cursing under his breath, but as he focused, he suddenly cried out, “Sister…”

Shi Lan stopped the motorcycle, blocking An Yang at the end of the alley, with the men who had been chasing him for debts right behind her.

An Yang turned to run, but Huo Zhao caught him with one hand.

“Trying to run?”

An Yang struggled desperately, but it was no use, “Let me go! Let go!”

The debt-chasing men rushed forward, but Shi Lan stopped them, saying, “I caught him.”

“Miss, this kid owes our boss 100,000. How much does he owe you?” the leader of the men asked Shi Lan.

Shi Lan thought for a moment, sitting on the motorcycle, and said, “Maybe five million or more?”

Hearing the amount of five million, it was clear the man was startled, “This kid really can scam!”

“Sister… Sister!” An Yang shouted at Shi Lan, “Save me, please save me!”

The debt-chasing men, hearing Little Demon King call An Lan Sister, then said, “You are his sister?”

“Where is your boss? I’ll take this damn thing over and repay the money,” Shi Lan stated.

As soon as they heard Shi Lan mention repaying the money, they felt a glimmer of hope and said, “Follow me.”

Shi Lan signaled Huo Zhao to drag the rascal, then followed the men.

Hearing Shi Lan say she would help him repay the money, An Yang didn’t care about being manhandled so undignifiedly, and immediately started buttering Shi Lan up, “Sister, you’re always good to me, always saving me from trouble. But, apart from this 100,000, I still owe another 500,000. Can you settle that for me too?”

Shi Lan got on the bike and snorted with a laugh.

Little rascal, thanks to you, your sister is already on the road to the underworld. Using ghost money to repay your debts?

The men found their business van and took Huo Zhao and An Yang along. Shi Lan rode her motorcycle, following them, and the group majestically proceeded to the landlord’s commercial property.

The landlord, a man in his early forties, ran a design company and was not someone who couldn’t afford to lose 100,000, but An Yang, the Demon King, had crossed the line, which is why he had called some men to block him.

Seeing Shi Lan walk in, he cleared out the conference room, ready to discuss the debt with Shi Lan.

In the conference room, the debt-chasers stood guard outside.

Huo Zhao held An Yang at one end of the conference table, while Shi Lan and the landlord stood together.

“You… are this kid’s sister?”

The female boss crossed her arms and nodded.

“This kid said his sister is a celebrity, you…”

“She is An Lan, truly a celebrity. Sister, please pay for me, sister… I don’t want to be chased around the streets anymore.” An Yang didn’t wait for Shi Lan to speak and began yelling, but Huo Zhao pressed him onto the office desk.

“I don’t care whether you’re a celebrity or not, your brother’s actions are too much…”

“Brother, I was scammed into a talent agency, and now I still owe 60 million for breach of contract, who’s more miserable?” Shi Lan retorted.

The man was taken aback, then laughed in exasperation, “I don’t care who’s more miserable, I just want to recover my losses. Today, no matter who pays me, I want to see the money.”

“Here’s what we’ll do,” Shi Lan took out her phone and pressed a few numbers, “I’ll call the police for you.”

As soon as An Yang heard this, he immediately panicked and shouted at Shi Lan, “Aren’t you my real sister? You actually want to call the police on me! No sister would ever treat her brother like this.”

After hearing this, Shi Lan glanced at Huo Zhao. Huo Zhao immediately understood and made An Yang lift his head.

At that moment, Shi Lan slapped him across the face and said, “To pay off your debts, I sold myself for three million. Now tell me, who is betraying whom?”

“It’s your duty as an elder sister to take care of your little brother.”

Slap…

Shi Lan delivered another slap, “It’s also a sister’s duty to discipline her brother. From now on, I will have no limits in what I do to you. I can call the police on you, hand you over to the billiard hall’s boss, or even sell you to the Demon King to settle my sixty million breach of contract fee. If I can’t live, neither will you!”

An Yang was stunned, but he could only glare and struggle, completely unable to touch even a hair on Shi Lan.

Then, Shi Lan turned her gaze back to the landlord, “Sorry, I won’t pay his debts, and I don’t have the money, but I can make him write an IOU and promise to pay you back within six months. During this period, you can calculate the interest according to bank rates. If he defaults, I’ll personally call the police. If he refuses to comply and breaks the law, I’ll send him to jail to settle this for you.”

“Bullshit, I won’t write it. I’ll never write an IOU!”

Shi Lan grabbed his chin, her voice cold, “Up to you?”

“Can I trust you?” the landlord scrutinized the two siblings.

“If you don’t trust us, call the police now.”

The landlord sighed and could only nod, “If it comes to that, I’ll expose this to the media. You’re a celebrity, right? You wouldn’t be able to continue your career either.”

“Whatever you like.”

The landlord took out some paper and a pen and placed them in front of An Yang, who immediately tore them into pieces.

Bending over, resting her hands on the table, Shi Lan said to the little rascal, “If you don’t write, I’m calling the police now.”

“You won’t!”

Without any hesitation, Shi Lan pressed a few numbers and hit the call button.

An Yang was frightened and had no choice but to give in, “I’ll write, okay? I’ll write!”

The Little Demon King reluctantly wrote the IOU and then pressed his own handprint on it.

Shi Lan handed the IOU to the landlord and then had Huo Zhao take the little rascal downstairs first.

Only after both figures had disappeared down the hallway did Shi Lan say to the landlord, “Give me the IOU. I’ll settle one hundred thousand first.”

“You…” the landlord looked curiously at Shi Lan, “If you have the money, why would you…”

“Cleaning house,” Shi Lan answered, “Please keep this matter confidential.”

As long as he could recover his losses, the landlord didn’t care about her reasons. After receiving the transfer, he immediately gave the IOU to Shi Lan, but he couldn’t help expressing his sympathy before she left, “To have such a disaster for a brother, you’re really unlucky.”

“Who’s really unlucky, is yet to be seen.” Shi Lan tucked away the IOU, leaving her words hanging, and then followed downstairs.

At that moment, An Yang was sprawled on the ground, unable to outrun Huo Zhao, simply hugging a lamppost and sobbing, “I won’t leave! I’ve never seen a sister as ruthless as you!”

“You think this is ruthless?” Shi Lan scoffed, “We haven’t even visited the family that owes half a million yet.”

At the mention of half a million, An Yang tried to run, but Huo Zhao immediately caught him and lifted him up.

“Next house!”

The female tycoon will now let you see firsthand what real ruthlessness is!
