Chapter 259: 259 means I’m too good-tempered now
Now, only Kong Lin and Shi Lan’s group remained in the parking lot.
After Huo Zhao had cleaned up the aftermath, Shi Lan gestured for him to get in the car first, as she still had a few words to clarify with Kong Lin.
Huo Zhao nodded, and after getting in the car, he closed the door.
“You… don’t come any closer.” Kong Lin wanted to move, but found herself unable to take a step, and she was afraid, afraid that Shi Lan would hit her again.
However, Shi Lan merely crossed her arms and coldly watched the disheveled Kong Lin, saying, “There’s no need, because I won’t lay a hand on you.”
“I…”
“I’ve already warned you before, not to mess with someone who has nothing to lose. If you keep begging for trouble like this, it’s not going to be as simple as a few slaps next time. I particularly dislike people who don’t learn their lessons, so just tell me whatever position you prefer next time. Also, the issue of saying I’m doomed because of my beauty—I’ll find a chance to settle that account.”
Having said that, Shi Lan walked past Kong Lin, returned to the car, and said to Tang Ze, “Let’s go back to the hotel.”
“Aren’t you going up?”
“Didn’t we just settle tonight’s account?” Shi Lan hinted.
Tang Ze nodded and then started the van.
Kong Lin dared not move at all until Shi Lan’s car was far away, and then she just broke down, sliding down and sobbing.
…
“Boss, what if she calls the police?” Sun Ling was somewhat apprehensive about such a scene, knowing that an ambush fight like this was not something ordinary people would witness often.
“Was it me who hit her?” Shi Lan retorted to Sun Ling.
“No, you didn’t even touch a hair on her,” Sun Ling shook his head.
“Since it wasn’t me who hit her, and the thugs weren’t hired by me, what does it have to do with me? Let her call the police if she wants to,” Shi Lan answered, “It’s just that I’m too good-tempered now. Ten slaps to teach her a lesson.”
“And… what if you’re not in a good mood?”
“Are you sure you want to hear?”
At that, Sun Ling froze, immediately imagining something like killing and burying a body, and his complexion grew considerably paler.
Seeing she had spooked him, Shi Lan said, “Been watching too many horror films? Haven’t you thought about her purpose today? Even if she didn’t want my life, she had the ambition for at least half, according to my old temper, that would only cost her half her life, and I’m being very reasonable, didn’t even charge any interest.”
Is that what you call being very reasonable?
With the atmosphere in the car turning eerie, Tang Ze and Sun Ling didn’t know what to say, when Shi Lan suddenly spoke, “I told you guys from the start, I am not a good person. Whatever people do to me, I will pay them back in kind. I am willing to play dirty and have experienced every filthy act, so if you feel stressed being with me, you can…”
“So Boss, was your life always this exciting?” Sun Ling suddenly interrupted Shi Lan.
“It’s not every day…”
“This kind of situation is new to me, give me a moment to wrap my head around it. So we just used those idiots’ own actions to make Kong Lin look like a fool, and she can’t even call the police because those thugs were her own doing. It’s like lifting a rock only to drop it on your own feet. From today onwards, I consider myself someone who has experienced big scenes. Thinking about this now feels quite thrilling,” Sun Ling said while clapping, “Turns out, behind those glamorous people in the circle, there truly lies the unspeakable. Kong Lin always seemed so approachable and popular with the public, but who knew…”
“So how foolish are the fans? Spending the most money, giving the most sincere affection, and what do they get in the end? A polished, packaged tool,” Shi Lan declared.
“So you don’t want to manage fans because you’d rather they live their own lives?”
Shi Lan didn’t speak.
“But actually, boss, you really don’t need to worry about fans wasting time on you, because there’s so much about you that’s worth learning from. Don’t think of them as too weak, thinking they can’t tell right from wrong. Time reveals a person’s true character, and no one can pretend forever. Even if they temporarily see false beauty in other artists, that’s still positive and constructive. When they realize it’s just a facade, they will understand better than anyone whether that person is still worth their affection.”
“Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for you to guide them, instead of avoiding them?”
Once again, Boss Shi found herself defeated by Dr. Sun’s eloquence.
“Think about it, okay?”

“Mm.” The boss responded noncommittally and then closed her eyes to rest, sleeping all the way back to the hotel.
During that time, Mr. Yan called. However, it was Sun Ling who answered, “Mr. Yan, the boss has fallen asleep. She didn’t come off worse tonight; she even turned the other guy into a pig’s head, don’t worry.”
Mr. Yan had anticipated this outcome and instructed Sun Ling, “Let her rest well.”
“Yes, Mr. Yan.”
The young miss felt vindicated today; she should have good sleep quality tonight.
…
When the beaten-up Kong Lin arrived at Qu Chong’s office, Qu Chong was taken aback and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, “What happened? How did you get beaten up like this?”
“Brother Chong…” Kong Lin rushed forward, crying, “I have a commercial to shoot tomorrow. What should I do now that I look like this?”
“Who did this? An Lan? Didn’t you bring a bunch of people with you? How could this have happened?”
“Who knew An Lan would bring a bodyguard, a professional one at that? And I saw with my own eyes, An Lan can fight. She even smashed my car and had those thugs slap me. I really hate her now,” Kong Lin cried out loudly.
“She’s totally lawless now, isn’t she? Doesn’t she remember how she knelt before me, begging me to lend her money, begging me to sign her into the company?”
But the Qu brothers also had to understand one thing: for Shi Lan, any threats from the king of heaven were useless now.
Be it a ban or being put on ice, she was already at a low point.
Although the ‘bootlicker green tea’ label was torn off and her debts were cleared, things were looking up, but with the body-selling contract in place, the king of heaven surely wouldn’t let people off easily. However, the boss hadn’t thought about letting the Qu brothers go either. Isn’t tearing them down more satisfying?
“Brother Chong, you must take revenge for me,” Kong Lin sobbed uncontrollably.
“Come, let’s go home first. I’ll have a doctor come over to treat you. Facial disfiguration is no joke. Also, let me go home and look through my old phone. I remember there’s a particularly juicy video on there.”
Kong Lin actually didn’t like going to Qu Chong’s house, so she preferred to meet with Qu Chong in his office resting room; at least Qu Chong was a bit more restrained there.
But at Qu Chong’s house, he was always too harsh…
However, unlike what Kong Lin thought, Qu Chong wanted to make her feel avenged. He had just mentioned the incident of An Lan kneeling and begging for a loan, and he remembered that people at the company had recorded a video at the time.
Entertainment companies usually like to gather some leverage over artists to ensure they remain compliant. An Lan hadn’t been very competitive these past few years, so there was no need to use that video. Thinking about it now, maybe he could find it on the old phone.
