Chapter 281: 281 Is this woman daydreaming? Chapter 281: 281 Is this woman daydreaming? When Shi Lan awoke, the bed beside her was cool, clearly indicating that Uncle Yan had not returned last night.
Shi Lan lay back down, intending to catch a bit more sleep, but the noise from downstairs startled her awake.
Descending the stairs, Shi Lan saw a housekeeper in her early forties feeding two cats, while the Ferrari remained its sa aloof and untad self, licking its paw, indifferent to everyone.
Upon hearing footsteps, the housekeeper looked back and saw Shi Lan, hurriedly saying, “I’m sorry, Miss An, Mr. Yan had instructed us not to disturb you, but the cats…”
“It’s fine, I’m about to head out,” Shi Lan replied.
“Will you be back for lunch?”
“Yes.”
It was only nine in the morning; even a visit to the detention center to see that brother wouldn’t take up much ti.
“By the way, the other cat still doesn’t have a na,” the housekeeper reminded her.
Shi Lan thought for a mont and responded to the housekeeper, “Let’s call it Maybach.”
The adorable golden layer of cuteness darted around the living room, a true embodint of Maybach.
…
The Qu brothers had spent a few days in the detention center, feeling as if they were rotting all over. Although family mbers and assistants had brought them many things, they saw the place as unfit for humans. So, the brothers directed all their hatred towards Shi Lan, who they believed had set them up.
At ten in the morning, Shi Lan, along with Sun Ling, appeared unassumingly at the detention center and was taken to the visitation room.
The mont the Qu brothers saw her, they wanted to lash out physically but were chastised by the police.
“It looks like you want another ten-day stay,” Shi Lan remarked.
Only then did the brothers calm down.
“You little bitch, it’s thanks to you our brothers are in this ss. You’ve got so nerve showing up. Just wait till I get out, I’ll show you,” Qu Chong threatened her through the glass.
“I’m here today to talk about terminating the contract,” Shi Lan said, taking a seat opposite the brothers.
“Terminate the contract? Don’t think that just because we’ve been in here for ten days you can do whatever you want. Do you think that’s possible?” Qu Chong asked mockingly, “You signed a contract for eight years. You still have a long way to go. Do you really think we’ll let you off the hook that easily?”
“I can pay three million for the termination fee,” Shi Lan offered.
Hearing Shi Lan ntion three million, the brothers burst into laughter in unison, especially Qu Chong, who was close to tears from laughing.
“You think you can appease us with three million? Do you know how much the penalty fee on the contract is? Sixty million. You think I’m a beggar?” Qu Chong scoffed.
“You’re well aware when I take this contract to court, this flawed agreent of yours is likely to be deed invalid. A few years ago, you brothers loaned three million to help out in a tough spot; although your intentions weren’t good, it was still a helping hand. Today, I’m here offering three million to terminate the contract. That’s fair considering what you did for back then. People shouldn’t be too greedy,” Shi Lan looked at the brothers coolly and said.
“Back then you were on your knees begging us to lend you money, signing the contract to repay the debt. It’s all there in black and white. You don’t get to deny it,” Qu Chong pointed at Shi Lan, “I’m telling you, you’re stuck with Tianwang Entertainnt for life. Just you wait until I get out, I’ll destroy you.”
“So, you brothers won’t let go no matter what, right?” Shi Lan asked them, almost dangerously.
“I’ll break you once I’m out. Just wait,” Qu Chong pointed at Shi Lan again, threatening her.
“Really? But I think you’ll be kneeling down begging soon?”
Upon hearing this, Qu Chong burst into laughter, “Mobai, did you hear that? This woman is daydreaming! Go to hell, bitch!”
Hearing this, Shi Lan responded while taking a tiny object out of her bag, “I gave you a chance, but you didn’t want it. Since you disdain my three million, fine, the five billion in taxes will need to be paid by you now, and since we are at the police station, it’s convenient for to report and submit the evidence.”
Hearing the words “paying back taxes,” the two brothers finally reacted, “What did you say?”
“A few days ago, I got hold of sothing good. I’ve done a rough calculation, and just with the docunt in my hands, you’ll have to pay back over five billion in taxes. How much exactly, I’m not too clear on, but that can be left to the police to investigate,” said Shi Lan as she got up from her seat.
At this point, Qu Chong imdiately spoke up to stop her, “An Lan, we can discuss this. Don’t be rash. Isn’t it just about terminating the contract? You could at least wait for us to get out before we talk, right?”
“Why should I wait for you to get out to talk? I want to call the police now!”
“Don’t!” Qu Chong, sweating cold sweat in urgency, said, “Okay, An Lan, we will let you go, we can peacefully terminate the contract, and you don’t need to blow things up. It’s not good for either of us. Turning things over like this won’t cancel the contract.”
“Getting anxious now, are you? But… it’s too late. Weren’t you planning to play to death?” Shi Lan scoffed, “I’d rather not terminate the contract now. Shall we all be ruined together?”
“An Lan! An Lan, I beg you! Don’t hand the evidence over.”
“I gave you a chance,” Shi Lan turned, her back to the brothers, “but you refused to act decently. If that’s the case, then go to hell!”
“An Lan… An Lan!”
Behind her, the voices of the two brothers chasing after Shi Lan were fraught with urgency, but… it was no use.
“Big brother, could it be that bitch is just bluffing us?” Qu Mobai had sobered up sowhat, finding it hard to believe that Shi Lan could have obtained such confidential material.
“If she were bluffing us, she should have agreed when I offered to discuss canceling the contract with her; but she didn’t want anything, she just wanted to go down with us. I think it might not be a bluff,” Qu Chong replied, “But how could she have possibly obtained that material?”
“If she really has sothing like that, we have to ask you, big brother,” Qu Mobai stared intently at Qu Chong.
“What do you an?”
“Given your lustful nature and the number of won around you, it would’ve been easy for one or two scheming won to fish information from you,” Qu Mobai said, “I think An Lan did it on purpose, taking advantage of the fact that we brothers can’t get out and do anything about her, and you were still so harsh on her just now. It’s over, we’re completely done for!”
“Let out, let out!” Qu Chong frantically knocked on the visiting room’s door and window but was escorted back by the police.
Was it of any use?
No use.
The boss anonymously submitted the evidence to the tax bureau, and then, just waited to watch the two brothers squander their fortunes away.
…
That afternoon, there was a stir from the tax bureau, Tianwang’s finance team, realizing they had been exposed, were terrified out of their wits. By afternoon, the news had spread online.
@Entertainnt Emperor: “Breaking news, Tianwang Entertainnt suspected of tax evasion, key individuals have been taken away for investigation, Qu brothers to face a hefty fine.”
@Orange dia: “Qu brothers to be released from administrative detention tomorrow, then transferred to the tax bureau.”
