Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn
Chapter 320 - Chapter 320 320 is just enough to get by in life

Chapter 320: 320 is just enough to get by in life. Chapter 320: 320 is just enough to get by in life. That was the only time the couple met on the golf course, and after that, they never encountered each other again. Shi Lan guessed that perhaps Uncle Yan had deliberately adjusted his schedule.

“After that chance meeting on the golf course, why have I never run into you again? I asked that fool just now, and he said you come here often.”

“I deliberately avoided it,” Boss Yan answered.

“You didn’t want to see me?”

“I didn’t want to hear others say we were not getting along,” Yan Shixiu explained, wrapping his arm around her shoulder.

Both appearing together yet not playing together, even seemingly not recognizing each other, indeed posed a big problem in the eyes of others.

“I hear that phrase a dozen times a day, you couldn’t stand it then? If you couldn’t stand it, why did you always argue with me?”

Yan Shixiu kissed the top of her head and then said, “Luckily I could still argue with you, otherwise, we might not have had any interaction at all.”

“Who says so, aren’t we communicating very well in bed?” The young lady started to speak without inhibition again, “How about… we discuss our golf skills a bit? I’ve never played against you.”

“Do you want to lose or win, it’s up to you,” Yan Shixiu said with a smile.

“Ha, that’s big talk.”

The two went to Yan Shixiu’s rest room, waiting for Li’en’s grand arrival.

But their appearance at the club indeed caused a small amount of gossip.

It was known that Yan Shixiu did not usually bring a female companion, the rare one or two times he did were because of business partners.

This time not only did he bring a female companion, but she was also An Lan, a small artist currently with a lot of buzz.

Saying it was just a fling, but from the way he brought her, one could tell he was very serious, yet if it was said he was serious, according to his taste, it should not be…

“Poor boss Yan!”

“Exactly, he is one of the rare gems in the club who had kept himself so clean, and now, he’s gotten involved with a small artist, woe, my heart hurts.”

The female employees of the club began to discuss.

“The affairs of guests, is it your place to discuss? Have you forgotten our club’s rule? Next time I hear you casually discussing the privacy of guests, be prepared to pay a penalty,” the club manager sternly warned them.

Moreover, he did not believe that Yan Shixiu would be interested in just any pretty face.

This small artist must have something unique about her.

…

At nine o’clock in the morning, Li’en arrived at Blue Lake Golf Club as agreed.

Seeing the level of luxury here comparable to a palace, Li’en thought that An Lan working here indeed meant she could meet some influential people.

If she put more effort in bed, it wasn’t impossible to get him blacklisted in the industry.

Thinking of having to bow down to such a person filled Li’en with scorn and aversion.

But he was now at his wit’s end, internally unable to swallow the humiliation of being cuckolded, so bowing to An Lan was better than watching helplessly as the promiscuous woman sent him to jail, and spent nights with other men.

At the reception, Li’en directly asked for An Lan.

The manager was away, and it was just a shift change at the reception, thus he explained with great confusion, “Sir, we don’t have an An Lan here… Are you sure you’ve got the right place?”

“Impossible, she works here,” Li’en said, “She asked me to come find her here.”

“So…I’ll ask the manager if there’s an employee named An Lan.”

The receptionist immediately called the manager on the internal line: “Manager, there is a gentleman here looking for An Lan, but I remember that we don’t have an employee by that name?”

“Employee?” The manager flipped his eyelid, “You take him to the coffee shop first.

“Okay.” The receptionist hung up the phone and then directed An Li’en, “Sir, this way, please.”

Indeed, An Lan was working here.

An Li’en snorted coldly and followed the receptionist to the Blue Lake Coffee Shop.

This coffee shop, well-known in Yancheng, was famous not only for its pleasant scenery but also because its pastry chefs were from England, formerly royal pastry chefs, which attracted the liking of wealthy ladies and socialites.

It wasn’t just the pastries, everything in the coffee shop was expensive, even a simple teacup could amount to an ordinary person’s monthly salary.

After taking his seat, An Li’en was extremely cautious. Although he always prided himself on doing quite well in the middle class, in a rich area, he could hardly maintain his pride.

“Sir, would you like something to drink?”

“Just a glass of water,” An Li’en said, feigning composure.

However, he did not know that even a glass of water at the Blue Lake Coffee Shop was imported Fillico from Japan, priced at one hundred US dollars.

“Okay, please wait a moment.” The waiter left with the tray.

A moment later, Shi Lan entered the coffee shop, dressed in athletic wear with a duckbill cap, probably accompanying a client.

Although her demeanor was completely different from before, no longer meek, and now exuded confidence and charm, she was still just a high-end “socialite”, the real power lay behind the man supporting her.

Shi Lan walked over to An Li’en, gauging his gaze.

She roughly knew what An Li’en was thinking.

“I didn’t expect you’d be ‘working’ here, no wonder you have such great capabilities.”

“Just making ends meet,” the female tycoon replied modestly, “What do you want with me? Have you decided to turn yourself in?”

The club’s manager was standing nearby, and upon hearing her talk about just making ends meet, he almost couldn’t hold back a laugh.

“You’re only bothering me for money. Wouldn’t it be nice if we cooperated? You use your connections, I use my methods; as long as our cooperation is mutually beneficial, what can’t you get?”

“Me, a club girl, what connections do I have?” Shi Lan tilted her leg, leaned closer to An Li’en with a smile, and said, “Speaking of cooperation is out of the question. I’m just a worker, what do I need a lawyer for?”

“It seems you want to corner me.” Seeing that Shi Lan was imperturbable, An Li’en said angrily.

“What have I done? You’re giving me too much credit. Is there any evidence?” Shi Lan threw his words back at him, “I’m just a person ‘working’ at the club, how could I have such great capabilities? Since you haven’t figured it out, and I still need to work, I’ll take my leave. Please yourself.”

Having said that, Shi Lan got up from the sofa.

An Li’en’s face darkened, but facing a lowly woman like Shi Lan, he couldn’t bring himself to lower his face; furthermore, his vengeful spirit compelled him to call over the club manager.

“Do you know that your employee treats this place like a golden pond?”

The manager maintained a gentlemanly demeanor with a bowed waist, and said, “This is a legitimate establishment, sir.”

“A legitimate establishment? Ha, I want to file a complaint against An Lan for misconduct, ill-intent, and indiscreet relationships.”

After listening, the manager’s smile brightened even further and said, “Sir, non-members don’t have the right to file such a complaint here, but if you want, you can join. The membership fee here is one million.”
