Chapter 460: Punishment
Tan Corporation.
Tan Shilin hugged Lan Yaxin and smiled.
“I’m hugging Mo Jinrong’s woman, now how are you going to thank me?”
Lan Yaxin pushed him aside with a displeased expression. She leaned against the table and shook her head.
“Why should I thank you? Why did you give him a knock-out drug? He slept like a dead pig and I couldn’t touch him at all.”
“Do you really want to sleep with Mo Jinrong? Remember, you are my woman. I’m already being kind by letting you sleep with him. Do you want to go overboard?”
The reason why Tan Shilin gave him that drug was that he didn’t want anyone to touch his woman. He had given in a lot by sending his woman to another man’s bed.
“I said I wanted to be the young lady of the Mo Family, a young lady worthy of the name.”
Lan Yaxin finally understood his purpose.
He did it deliberately.
“Isn’t it good for you to be the young lady of the Tan Family? Mo Jinrong won’t acknowledge you now and you’re still a mistress. Do you think they will accept you just because Mo Jinrong has compromised?”
Tan Shilin felt that Lan Yaxin was too naïve.
“It’s my business whether I accept it or not, it has nothing to do with you. Mo Jinrong will accept me sooner or later, you don’t have to worry about that. The Tan Family is different, will they accept me?”
Lan Yaxin knew that Old Master Tan wouldn’t accept her. Instead of that, she might as well take the risk and try Mo Jinrong.
“That’s not necessarily true. Have you forgotten about Liu Xixi?” Tan Shilin said.
“What do you mean? Do you want me to lie to you too?”
The moment Lan Yaxin finished speaking, Tan Shilin grabbed her neck.
“If you dare to lie to me, I’ll grind your bones to dust.”
Lan Yaxin’s face flushed and she couldn’t breathe.
“Let go of me! Don’t have any designs on me, I won’t be with you even if I die.”
Even though Lan Yaxin was upset, she didn’t say anything gentle.
“Great, are you trying to get rid of me after using me? Don’t forget, you haven’t succeeded yet.”
Tan Shilin pushed her against the wall and spoke fiercely.
He suddenly released her and turned to glare at her angrily.
“Get out! Don’t forget that you still need me.”
Lan Yaxin coughed and rubbed her neck before staggering out.
Jiang Mei was guarding outside. When she arrived, the commotion inside didn’t seem friendly, so she sneered.
“It seems that your life isn’t good either. You and I are just his toys, but you actually treated him as your prey? It seems that you will die faster than me.”
Lan Yaxin didn’t take her words to heart.
“We don’t know who will die or who will live. I have never treated him as my prey. You should be very jealous of me right now. If you have the time, why don’t you finish the work on hand? I have a report on my desk. Organize it immediately and give it to me before work ends.
“Also, give me the financial report analysis. If you can’t complete it before work ends, you can work overtime today. I’m your superior, you have to listen to me.”
Jiang Mei turned her head and looked at the stack of tall reports on the table. She was furious. She actually had to do such tedious work that she usually didn’t do.
“Lan Yaxin, don’t go overboard!”
“Mr. Tan said that I am his special assistant and you are just my assistant. I hope that you can figure out your identity.”
Lan Yaxin walked past her in a high-profile manner.
Jiang Mei clenched her fists helplessly.
“Damn it! Sooner or later, you will die by my hand,” Jiang Mei muttered.
In the room, Tan Shilin was playing games anxiously.
Old Master Tan’s sudden call made him very impatient.
“What exactly is it? Why did you call me now?”
“What exactly do you want? Don’t you know that the entertainment city project is very important? Why didn’t you contact Xie Li yesterday?”
When Old Master Tan heard that the person in charge of the entertainment city’s project was participating in the gathering, he was overjoyed. This was a piece of fat meat that everyone in the business world wanted to have a bite of.
He originally thought that his son would get in touch with Xie Li to get the project when he went to the gathering, but he didn’t expect his useless son to leave without even seeing him or saying a word.
“Dad, Mo Jinrong was there yesterday too. There were so many people who want this project, how could we get it? I think you should give up. Mo Jinrong is determined to get this project and it would be a waste of time if we went. We might as well spend some time doing other things,” Tan Shilin explained, which made Old Master Tan furious.
“B*stard, even if you can’t get it, you have to work hard. What if you can have some soup? You good-for-nothing, what did you do yesterday? The company will be ruined if I hand it over to you sooner or later. When are you going to sire a fat grandson to inherit the family business? I won’t rest in peace if I count on you.”
He was furious. His son was too disappointing. He probably wouldn’t be able to see his fat grandson inherit the family business even after he died.
“Dad, I’m just an empty shell without a real job. The company’s power is with Siwen. Hasn’t she been doing well recently? The Mo Family’s project is about to end and we made a lot of money this time.”
Tan Shilin was furious.
He was blaming Old Master for not giving him all the power. Of course, it was because his niece had the upper hand and was flaunting her prowess in the company all day long. Instead, his affairs had spread throughout the company.
“You could hold on to the things I give you, but you can’t. You even want me to hand you the entire company? How did I give sire a son like you? You’d better hurry and get in touch with Xie Li to get the specific plan and the bidding price.”
Old Master Tan hung up after speaking.
Tan Shilin thought his words were nonsense and didn’t listen. He turned around and opened the game interface to continue playing.
When Lan Anran reached home, she looked dazed.
Li Yueru happened to come out of the kitchen and saw her daughter. She came over to show her concern.
“Daughter, what’s wrong? Why do you look so bad? Were you bullied?”
Li Yueru thought about how Old Mrs. Lan and Xu Yanshan were both locked up, so it probably wasn’t them.
Lan Anran shook her head and didn’t tell her parents about today. She forced a smile.
“I’m alright, don’t worry, the research institute called and I’m going to work tomorrow. I’m just a little nervous. After all, it’s a career unit.”
“What’s there to be nervous about? My daughter is so outstanding, you must have been in high demand in your past life. I made some delicious braised pork ribs for you today. You must eat more later,” said Li Yueru as she smiled.
Lan Anran nodded and went upstairs tiredly.
She opened her phone’s contact list as though nothing had happened and looked at Lan Yaxin’s number.
She had an urge to call and ask what was going on, but she suppressed the urge. She still didn’t think she could take the initiative and fall into Lan Yaxin’s trap.
Lan Anran returned to the interface to look at the trending topic.
Lan Yanran’s hilarious appearance on the variety show was at the top of the trending list. She opened it and took a look, which made her smile with relief.
Her brother was now considered a big shot in the entertainment circle, a popular celebrity with many fans which comforted her.
Just as she was scrolling through her phone, Lan Yanran called her.
“Sis! Did you see my post? I came to this mountain for the variety show. The sunrise here is beautiful. Come play with me when you’re free. I’m not far from you anyways.”
Lan Anran forced a smile and pretended to be happy.
“I’ll go over if I’m free, but I’m starting work at the research institute tomorrow, so I might not have much time tomorrow.”
She declined, looking troubled.
