Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn

Chapter 16: 016 Never See Again

“Mr. Yan, I understand now. From now on, I will respect Miss An and respect my own business partners,” Gu Chengyu was very tactful and didn’t continue to collide against Yan Shixiu’s sharp edge.

“An Lan, can you promise not to do anything inappropriate?” Yan Shixiu asked someone on the right sofa symbolically.

“I can’t promise unless others don’t provoke me,” Shi Lan answered “honestly.”

Gu Chengyu looked back at Shi Lan and burst into laughter: “I’ll wait and see.”

Shi Lan shrugged her shoulders, ready for a fight at any time.

Having gained nothing favorable, Gu Chengyu, along with his broker, dispiritedly left Yan Shixiu’s office.

The spacious office suddenly quieted down, leaving only Shi Lan and Yan Shixiu.

Sun Ling tugged at Shi Lan’s clothes, marveling at Yan Shixiu’s attractiveness while fearing his authority.

Looking at Shi Lan, she seemed unafraid, meeting the man’s gaze naturally, without any psychological burden.

“Cough cough… Mr. Yan, about the red wine in the cabinet, could I possibly buy two bottles from you?”

“Do you like drinking?” Yan Shixiu stood up from his office chair and walked towards the liquor cabinet, “Which one caught your eye?”

Shi Lan watched the tall, statuesque figure of the man, shook her head slightly, and casually pointed to the treasure inside.

Yan Shixiu raised an eyebrow, pun intended: “Good taste, the most expensive pick at random, but… these wines don’t belong to me, so I have no right to dispose of them.”

Shi Lan was startled, her heart sharply scratched.

“Although I protected you today, I haven’t approved of your acting yet. I hope you won’t let Huahai down.”

In Shi Lan’s memory, Yan Shixiu rarely spoke so much to her, especially with a hint of a smile.

In their not so long marital life, they each played king, never yielding to each other. Unexpectedly, now as strangers, the head-to-head contention and mutual hurt had disappeared.

“An Lan… let’s go,” Sun Ling reminded Shi Lan.

Shi Lan nodded her head, ready to say goodbye to the man, when suddenly, Yan Shixiu’s secretary knocked on the glass door.

“Mr. Yan, Miss Yan has arrived.”

Yan Shixiu instinctively looked at Shi Lan, only to find that the Shi Lan who was just smiling a moment ago now only had scorn left.

Thus, his tone turned cold: “Instruct them that no one from the Yan Family is allowed to step into any recently acquired company. If someone lets them in, they can direct them out.”

“Understood,” the assistant retreated upon receiving the order.

Shi Lan couldn’t describe the feeling in her heart. She stood up from the sofa and said, “Mr. Yan, I’m heading back to the set.”

“Hmm, I look forward to your performance,” Yan Shixiu adjusted his glasses.

“Thank you, goodbye.”

Thank you for today’s protection, and thank you for not allowing Yan Family members to tarnish the empire she had worked hard to build.

This time, it was Yan Shixiu who was stunned. The haughty Miss Shi, thank you was a rarity in her lifetime. In her world, she was always right, even if wrong, she would be incredibly proud.

It turned out, with a change in identity and perspective, they could communicate normally.

Shi Lan had been reborn, transforming An Lan.

And An Lan’s situation undoubtedly affected Shi Lan too.

However, he didn’t want to say goodbye.

…

As Shi Lan left Huahai with Sun Ling and walked out the front door, she indeed saw her former sister-in-law being blocked outside, no matter how frantic and upset she was, even showing her identity didn’t grant her entry.

How relieving would it have been to see this scene in her previous life?

Shi Lan thought so, but now, it was irrelevant to her. @@novelbin@@

The two of them quickly got into the nanny van, and just as they closed the door, Sun Ling became excited, telling Shi Lan, “The on-set producer asked me to go back and get the notices, An Lan, you can film smoothly now.”

But unexpectedly, Shi Lan was more worried that staying up all night might cause her hair to fall out: “I think, you should go get me a human-sized doll right away, it doesn’t have to be too handsome, just exactly like Yan Shixiu will do, make sure it’s a high-definition photo, or I might wake up in the middle of the night, frightened to death…”

Sun Ling: “What are you talking about?”
