Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn

Chapter 201: I have a bad temper. Chapter 201: I have a bad temper. Shi Lan leaned against the car door, pressed the pause button, and then tapped on the fat man’s window, asking, “Well? Do you want me to continue playing it?”

The fat man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling very uneasy, and spoke without any confidence, “You… what exactly do you want?”

Shi Lan fiddled with the voice recorder in her hand and sneered, “Should I release the recording now to prove my innocence, or should I call the police?”

As soon as the fat man heard the word “police”, he hurriedly pushed the door, trying to get out of the car, but Shi Lan pushed him back in, “I’m asking you again, do you know or not? I can tell you very clearly now that this was orchestrated by your Vice President Qin. It could have had nothing to do with you, but if you insist on getting involved, once this recording is made public, not only you but also your wife and daughter, your parents, will all be dragged into this. They will be harassed and insulted every day, just like how the netizens treated me.”

“I… I don’t want that, what should I do?”

“What did Vice President Qin promise you?” Shi Lan pressed on as she saw that the other side was already very frightened.

“He promised… to give each of us a hundred thousand yuan to keep quiet; otherwise, he would find a way to get us fired. Losing the money is a small thing, but I don’t want to lose my job at Yilong.” The fat man explained while wiping his sweat, “What do you want me to do? Just say it, but please don’t involve my family.”

“You alone are not enough, let us find you a partner.”

Once one person’s mouth was pried open, the other would be much easier.

“I’m giving you five minutes to call in sick for your wife, because after that, we’re going somewhere else to play.”

The fat man was now at Shi Lan’s mercy, so he had to comply, made an excuse of having to work overtime to his wife, and then was taken by Shi Lan to another person involved’s doorstep.

The person’s surname was Wu, tall and skinny, who was deceived by the fat man to come downstairs and squeezed into the fat man’s car.

“Everyone is here.” Shi Lan sat in the passenger seat of the fat man’s car and addressed the two in the back, “Now, let’s all do a multiple-choice question. I give you two options. First, side with your Vice President Qin and insist I coerced Gu Chengyu; then I will have to release this recording, and if innocent people get hurt, it’s not my fault, after all, it’s a choice you made. Second, I can let you two walk away from this clean.”

After hearing the second option, the two were incredulous, “How is that possible?”

“Let me put it another way, Vice President Qin is so petty, how could he possibly let you hold leverage over him? Once my issue is over, do you think he won’t settle scores with you in autumn?”

After pondering for a while, both men, who had families to support, truly didn’t want to get caught in such a vortex and asked, “What do you plan to do? Can you really let us walk away clean?”

“You won’t even need to show your faces. I will send the PR draft to you, and you can look it over before sending it out.”

“Of course, integrity is most important in life. If you plan to contact Vice President Qin privately, then everything we just recorded… will be facing the audience. I have a bad temper and don’t give people a second chance. Consider it carefully yourselves. I just want to clear my name, and you just want peace of mind. Isn’t it a win-win for everyone to work together?”
