Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn

Chapter 49: 049 Reaping without sowing?

After Chen Beini finished listening, she didn’t understand and even found it somewhat laughable, “President Yan, I am here to help the crew eliminate a malignancy. Why should I explain myself?”

Yan Shixiu put his hands together, fingers interlaced, and tilted his head slightly, revealing a hint of nonchalance, “A malignancy? Whether An Lan has been messing around with men in the hotel is her private matter, but she has not affected her work. Whereas Gu Chengyu is burning through my budget every second. Which do you think matters more to me?”

Chen Beini was stunned.

“You came to me merely wishing to swap Gu Chengyu for An Lan, and I agreed. But if An Lan is innocent, shouldn’t you also pay a corresponding price? Otherwise, are you trying to pull a fast one on me?”

Chen Beini suddenly felt very anxious, her expression complex.

Yan Shixiu had such a refined appearance, so why were his thoughts so meticulous, and why did he exert such immense pressure?

“Let’s do this, I’ll give you two options, confirm An Lan’s private life is unsavory, and I’ll replace her, otherwise, I’ll replace you?”

Upon hearing the words “replace you,” Chen Beini quickly said, “President Yan, I am, after all, a top influencer. Compared to An Lan’s worth, she doesn’t even come close.”

That, Yan Shixiu did not deny. @@novelbin@@

He smiled, “True, then choose one from your many resources and give it to An Lan, else why would I meddle in someone’s private life?”

“President Yan, let me make a phone call.”

Yan Shixiu gestured towards the parlor door, indicating she could do as she pleased, then he swiveled his office chair, turning away from the door.

Within two minutes, Chen Beini was back in the parlor, quite certain as she said to Yan Shixiu, “President Yan, I’ll bet.”

Because Chen Beini had just called the hotel’s cleaner, confirming that someone was in Shi Lan’s room and that they hadn’t come out.

The cleaner had taken Chen Beini’s money, discreetly looked into room 1117 during lunchtime when nobody was around, afraid to disturb the “man” inside, so she had only dared to peek through a crack in the door. She had wrapped herself in a blanket, and it was undeniably a real person, not fake. She had watched that floor for a long time and hadn’t seen a man leave 1117.

Chen Beini was certain that man was in Shi Lan’s room at that moment, so she confidently placed her bet with Yan Shixiu.

“A bet is fine, but let’s get this straight, the resource you must cough up has to be of middling or higher tier among all your resources, don’t bring out something you don’t want just to disgust me.”

Chen Beini suddenly thought of an international sports brand undergoing transformation, so she said, “Fine, I can recommend to her the best resource my team is currently negotiating.”

But whether An Lan could capitalize on it was none of her business.

Once the terms were settled, Yan Shixiu had his assistant notify Tang Ze, after all, visiting a female artist’s room late at night needed a legitimate reason.

Receiving the call at this critical moment made Tang Ze nervous because Yan Shixiu was planning to visit An Lan’s room at this time?

Tang Ze wasn’t foolish, of course he knew something was happening, especially since, after reaching Huahai, he had also seen Chen Beini.

Tang Ze realized that the situation was complex and had wanted to give Shi Lan a heads-up, but was intercepted by Yan Shixiu’s assistant, “Tonight, your only tasks are to drive and open doors.”

Tang Ze nervously nodded, then turned off his phone in front of President Yan’s assistant.

Thus, Yan Shixiu and Chen Beini, each with their assistants, along with Tang Ze, assembled a powerful team to catch the cheater, with two luxury sedans heading straight for the drama crew’s hotel.
