Chapter 248: 248 I can also take the initiative to come to you

To target the Qu brothers, one must start with this master.

Since he’s a conman out for money, just keep an eye on him and he’ll deliver surprises beyond your expectations.

Clearly, the Qu brothers are not the only clients of this master; otherwise, he wouldn’t need to be stationed at the temple—he should be hiding in the mountains.

Exposing this master’s scam can shake Kong Lin, draw out the Qu brothers, and expose Tianwang Entertainment.

In the technological era of the 21st century, how can people still be so ignorant? They really are—in droves.

Moreover, it’s quite prevalent among the wealthy elite.

Not to mention the entertainment industry—stage names, age, and horoscopes, which isn’t calculated?

…

In the evening, Boss Shi finally received the bonus from Yilong. After deducting personal taxes, Shi Lan transferred the money to Tang Ze and sent him a message, “Tomorrow night, shall we visit Tianwang?”

“I’ll have your debt calculated by tomorrow during the day; if there’s still a shortfall…”

“With the part that Gu Chengyu is still sending, it won’t be short.” The boss was very sensitive about the amount.

“There’s interest… Contracts are one thing; interest is another.”

“I…” Shi Lan really wanted to curse again, but thinking of An Lan’s departure, she calmed down and said, “Keep your debit book; just use Yan’s supplementary card.”

“Yan gave you a supplementary card.”

“Consider it borrowed.” The boss insisted on maintaining her dignity.

“Okay.”

The boss’s thoughts are really hard to guess; others just want to contest their contracts, but she wants to tear down Tianwang altogether.

Tang Ze really hasn’t seen such a crazy artist!

…

The night scene was shot until 9 PM. After returning to the hotel, Shi Lan started searching online for information about the master, whom Tang Ze mentioned was called Wuchan.

He was quite famous in the area, which is why the temple and monastery where he was located thrived.

The master had appeared in the newspapers, and after that, there was no more promotion, and there was no resume about his life before he became a monk on the Internet.

Isn’t this the biggest problem?

No one knows his real name, his origins, or where he lives?

The boss had a premonition that if his background were dug up, it might shock everyone.

Shi Lan was examining some old newspapers from over a decade ago when a message from Yan popped up on WeChat.

Yan: “Have you forgotten again that you have a boyfriend?”

Shi Lan: “I’m dealing with a big issue, Uncle Yan.”

Yan: “I heard, you’re going to Tianwang to clear debts tomorrow.”

Shi Lan paused after reading this, wondering how Yan always managed his time and why he always knew what she was up to.

Shi Lan: “Did you put a bug on Tang Ze?”

Yan: “Do you think I need to?”

Upon reading this, Shi Lan finally stopped thinking about blasting Tianwang, and called Yan back: “At the office?”

“Hmm, I have another meeting later, and I’ll be busy tomorrow too… so, I won’t have much time to see you.”

Shi Lan checked the time; it wasn’t even 10 PM yet.

Hearing the disappointment in Yan’s voice, Shi Lan shut down her computer, immediately took out her black suit, which now served as her outfit for nighttime outings.

Shi Xiu thought Shi Lan was busy since there was no response from her end, so he said, “Hang up then, just send me a message before bed.”

Without a word, Shi Lan hung up the phone, changed quickly, and left the hotel in a cab alone without even bring Sun Ling, contacting Shi Xiu’s assistant.

…

Yan Shixiu put down his phone, sighed, and closed his eyes again.

The young lady’s ambition wasn’t merely talk.

Although Shi Lan had changed a lot, her not contacting him all day and being absent-minded on the phone still bothered the delicately-minded Mr. Yan.

After a short rest, Yan Shixiu got up from his chair and called his assistant in, “Start the meeting.”

“It’s like this, Mr. Yan, the head of the accounting department left earlier because her daughter has a fever,” the assistant explained. “Shall we go to the film set?”

Yan Shixiu shook his head and sat back down, “You can leave for the day, let me have some peace.”

“I’ll be outside, just call me if you need anything.”

Yan Shixiu nodded, flipped open a file, and uncapped his fountain pen.

The assistant tactfully closed the door. Half an hour later, he received a call from Shi Lan.

Since it was late at night, the new office building of Shuangshi was already deserted.

Shi Lan didn’t need to cover up so much and was carrying something in her hands.

“He doesn’t know I’m coming, does he?”

“I didn’t tell him,” the assistant replied as he escorted Shi Lan into the elevator.

Upon reaching the office area and stopping in front of Yan Shixiu’s office door, the assistant quietly said to Shi Lan, “Then Miss An, I’m off work now.”

Shi Lan nodded.

The assistant hurriedly left the building with his documents.

Shi Lan approached the door and gently knocked.

“Didn’t I tell you to leave for the day?”

Shi Lan pushed the door open and then locked eyes with her boyfriend.

Yan Shixiu put down his fountain pen, unable to hide the delight on his face, “What brings you here?”

“Intuition, you seemed upset,” Shi Lan said as she set down the pastries she was carrying and then sat on Yan Shixiu’s desk.

Yan Shixiu stood up, took her hands, and said, “I thought, just when I got your favorite wine surpassed, I would lose out to your work again.”

“Uncle Yan, you know I’m not someone who maintains relationships through communication tools, and I dislike being distracted while working. But if you want to see me, it doesn’t always have to be you coming to find me; I can also take the initiative to come to you. So, can you stop feeling insecure?”

“What? You spent all day working and still kept up with my updates and decided I lost, is that it?”

Yan Shixiu looked into her eyes and said, “It might be the aftereffects of those three years, the habit of self-doubt.”

“What else is left to work on?” Shi Lan changed the subject.

“Just one more thing,” Yan Shixiu replied, grabbing Shi Lan’s hand and kissing the back of it, then, lifting his head, he kissed her lips, “And that’s… pleasing the young lady.”

Shi Lan actually didn’t know how to maintain a relationship; she didn’t have all the theoretical knowledge that Dr. Sun had.

Empathy was also something she had only recently learned.

If someone tried to play these mind games with her, she would definitely tell them to get lost, but now, thinking of Yan Shixiu’s restrained habit, she could acutely perceive it, as if it tugged at her heart, a pull that could cause pain.

Now that things were out in the open.

And accepted, the only option was to indulge him.

What else could she do?

Shi Lan was never coy; if you can’t come to see me, I can come to see you, right?

She felt that between her and Yan Shixiu, it wasn’t a matter of who should take the initiative, but rather who had the time.

The two were affectionate in Yan Shixiu’s new office, kissing and starting their adult moment of happiness, and they made quite a mess with the pastries, naturally, mouth to mouth…
