Chapter 310: 310 What else is there to return? Chapter 310: 310 What else is there to return? Seeing the popular comnt on the trending topic, Shi Lan developed a strong interest in this “Chubby Tiger.”
Such a talent, she had to have Uncle Yan find this person for her own use.
Her general idea now was indeed such.
However, this Chubby Tiger classmate could only see the most superficial matters and didn’t know more of the inside information and details, for instance, her plan to take over the king and make it part of Huahai’s secret territory, or dealing with that little bastard An Yang, who would eventually serve her as well.
Of course, being able to organize her thoughts to this extent was already quite applause-worthy.
Moreover, it didn’t matter that An Zijun was playing dead because cyberbullying wouldn’t let him escape, the more he tried to evade, the more tightly netizens pressed, like a net.
Now An Lan’s uncle’s family could only hide at ho and dare not go out because as soon as they left the house, they would be labeled as swindlers and scum.
An’s father looked at An Zijun and could only sigh with frustration. At last, he suggested, “Why don’t we sell the house and pay the money back to An Yang?”
“Pay back what? If we sell the house, where would I live?” An’s mother firmly disagreed, “Moreover, it’s not entirely our fault. Didn’t An Li’en also benefit from it as well? Just because that young man is a lawyer and knows so tricks, he is fearless. Besides, what’s swallowed can’t be spat back out, can it?”
“But if we don’t pay it back, do you want our son to face a lawsuit?” An’s father said resentfully. “Since An Lan has made so much noise about this, she never intended to give you a way out. Do you still think you can bluff your way through? And, always hiding like this is not the solution either. Our grandson has already been taken by Yunzhen. Do you really want to abandon this family?”
“Stop arguing!” An Zijun shouted, “An Lan’s purpose is revenge, not money! Moreover, An Li’en might very likely push all the bla onto and clear himself.”
“How could this happen?” An’s mother beca anxious, “What exactly did you do back then?”
Facing his parents, An Zijun had nothing to hide anymore, so he spilled everything. “In college, I registered a small company with friends thinking of making dical equipnt. I deceived An Yang by claiming it was a subsidiary of a major company that would focus on its developnt and encouraged him to invest. When An Li’en found out, he threatened to split the money, so we both took half.”
“How could he clear himself?”
“Since we had no bank transfer records, no matter the amount, he always insisted I pay him in cash. He studied law in college and was highly cautious.”
“Then the police would find out if they check his account, wouldn’t they?” An’s mother naively said.
“He likely never deposits it in the bank.” An Zijun said and laughed in despair, “The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I thought I was smart, but I am just at on soone else’s chopping board. Let An Lan sue if she wants, but she won’t be able to touch An Li’en, even with my testimony.”
“Mom, Dad, I am on the verge of breaking down. I can’t keep going. I want to turn myself in. This ss is my doing. Let An Lan decide what she wants, I just hope she can spare a way out for you.”
“Is there really no other way left?” An’s mother felt like she had been struck by lightning, unable to accept this fact.
An Zijun shook his head.
“I underestimated An Lan, I underestimated a woman’s determination for revenge. Turning myself in is the only way to stop the losses in ti. Don’t stop anymore.”
After hearing this, An’s parents could do nothing but cry their hearts out, unable to see any other way out.
…
That very afternoon, the news ca out online that An Zijun, unable to withstand the pressure, announced he would surrender, but before doing so, he wanted to et An Lan alone.
Shi Lan knew what he wanted to say, but also wanted to hear so details, so she agreed to et and sent Huo Zhao to pick him up.
The young lady went to Yan’s courtyard hotel, a tranquil and undisturbed place, most importantly, this was also where several Qu Family brothers’ futures were ruined by her.
Life, after all, must have so sense of ceremony.
At five in the afternoon, Huo Zhao received the person and sent An Zijun to the seaside suite in the courtyard hotel. At that ti, the young lady was sitting on the balcony, watching the sunset, thinking that she must drag Yan Shixiu over to experience nature when she had the ti.
“An Lan.”
Shi Lan turned around and looked at An Zijun. Although he had been tornted these past few days, he still appeared gentle and scholarly, probably because he had been wearing a mask for so long that he couldn’t shed it right away.
“What are you trying to exchange with using the news about An Li’en?”
After hearing this, An Zijun snickered, apparently mocking his own presumptuousness.
“Let my parents go, they are uninford.”
“I never intended to target your parents, it was your insistence that pushed your family into the Abyss,” Shi Lan replied from the lounge chair. “Besides, the person you truly owe an apology isn’t , but that little bastard. I foolishly indulged him ti and again. It serves right, and we should all pay a price for this.”
An Zijun glanced at Shi Lan and finally got to the point, “How do you plan to deal with An Li’en? I don’t have evidence to prove he embezzled the money originally because he was very cautious. I can only tell you so details of our transaction.”
“No need,” Shi Lan said. “I don’t need those details. To deal with him, I won’t be using people’s thods.”
An Zijun felt a chill down his spine after hearing Shi Lan’s words.
Hadn’t Shi Lan already reviewed An Li’en’s information? Did she not understand what kind of person attorney An was?
“So, the person you should be asking to et isn’t , but that little bastard.”
An Zijun thought he was very clever, but in front of Shi Lan, he couldn’t see through her at all.
An Lan used to be such a simple person, so weak and naive, but now this woman incredibly controlled everything.
She didn’t care whether she could get any evidence against An Li’en because she said she had her own thods.
An Zijun felt his trip was in vain. As he turned to leave, he still said, “I’m sorry.”
Shi Lan didn’t acknowledge it, nor would she forgive.
The one who was genuinely hurt had already died; no matter how many apologies were said, none could be heard.
An Zijun took one more look at Shi Lan, then left the hotel.
Shi Lan lay on the lounge chair, and with just a little thought, she could visualize An Li’en’s self-satisfied face, resembling the people of the Shi Family she rembered.
They were all so presumptuous.
Since An Li’en wouldn’t give her the things from the mortal world, she would tell An Li’en just how terrifying the things from the underworld could be.
You don’t want to admit your mistake?
Then don’t admit it.
But the price for that…
It might be a bit too great.
