Recognized by My Ex After Being Reborn

Chapter 54: Congratulations on unlocking the bond of friendship?

Sun Ling didn’t understand Yan Shixiu’s reaction, she just felt that it was probably not bad overall.

After Yan Shixiu left, Tang Ze had no reason to stay either. He glanced at Chen Beini for a while, then took a taxi back to Yancheng.

Late at night, Chen Beini and her assistant remained in the hallway like wooden stakes, while Shi Lan, during her washing up, kept recalling those three words from Yan Shixiu, “Is it bad?”

Initially, Shi Lan wanted to escape; later, when she realized that Yan Shixiu was suffering the torment of the Shi Family on her behalf, she recognized that the bonds between them could not be discarded, no matter what. However, she couldn’t accept repeating the marriage of her previous life.

Is it bad?

It wasn’t that it was bad, but if you have even a sliver of hesitation, that sliver will eventually turn into a hundred percent regret.

Thus, in this life, she hoped that any decision she made would be extremely cautious.

After some thought, Shi Lan sent Yan Shixiu a WeChat message: “The extent I can accept now is for us to become friends.”

At that time, Yan Shixiu was in his Huahai office, rifling through Shi Lan’s old personal files. After seeing the message, he replied, “Then…Congratulations to me for unlocking the friend bond?”

Shi Lan sent back an eye-rolling emoji, feeling a weight lift off her shoulders. Knowing that Chen Beini was still obediently punished outside, she went to sleep peacefully.

Putting down his phone, Yan Shixiu continued sorting through Shi Lan’s files and various business cards. Finally, he found a card for a private clinic.

Looking at the contact information on it, Yan Shixiu didn’t care about the lateness of the hour and called directly.

…

Three hours of punishment, neither long nor short, Chen Beini stood outside Shi Lan’s door the entire time, not daring to leave. Fortunately, there weren’t many guests coming up to the 11th floor, so Chen Beini wasn’t too embarrassed. Generally, the room service staff thought she was waiting for someone.

“Nini, time’s up. Let’s head back,” her assistant supported Chen Beini. “We better not provoke this An Lan anymore. Didn’t you see Yan’s attitude? His favoritism was too obvious. Moreover, it’s infuriating that he wants you, a top-tier artist, to yield resources to An Lan. Does she deserve it?”

“I’ll send her a ‘nice’ resource,” said Chen Beini coldly, massaging her stiff legs. “Isn’t our team discussing the renewal issue with the sports brand Glory? I’ll recommend An Lan for it.”

Glory, an international sports brand, almost second-tier. Previously, it had always been Chen Beini endorsing it. However, the company had many issues and was difficult to please, so Chen Beini’s team didn’t want to renew the contract.

By recommending someone else, her team found an excuse to decline.

If An Lan was chosen and suddenly took over her resources, fans would definitely tear An Lan apart.

If not chosen, then no one could blame her. Even if Yan Shixiu turned up, she could justify herself confidently. Such a great resource was fed to An Lan’s mouth, and she couldn’t bite it, whose fault is it?

“Glory for An Lan? Even if it’s something we look down upon, she doesn’t deserve it,” her assistant snorted.

“Just wait and watch the drama unfold.”

“Let’s hurry back. We have a scene with that despicable person tomorrow morning. We need to be fully rested, not to be outperformed by her,” her assistant helped Chen Beini, hastening their pace.

…

The next morning, Yan Shixiu had arranged to meet someone at a coffee shop.

The person was a man in his early thirties, medium build, with a crew cut, carrying a briefcase, and with a rugged, masculine face. @@novelbin@@

“The person in charge of Langxi Private Clinic, Duan Langxi.” After sitting down, he looked at Yan Shixiu and chuckled, “She is no longer here, why are you only asking about Shi Lan’s past now?”
