Chapter 456 - 456 Four-Hundred and Fifty-Six: Tractable
Lan Long was very satisfied with Yun Liu’s performance. He held her chin and commented, “You’re smart. You’re more sensible than all of them. Mr. Lou said that the ‘goods’ you sent us are pretty good. I’m very pleased! You can stick with me from now on!”
Yun Liu bit her lip and asked in a quiet voice, “Then can you do me a favor, Young Master Lan Long?”
“Go on,” Lan Long replied, his tone airy and light.
Yun Liu gritted her teeth. “I want everyone in the Yun family to die!”
Lan Long chuckled, “Oh? You were raised by the Yun family. Instead of giving back to the family, you actually want them decimated?”
Yun Liu’s tears fell and she cried, “They’re vicious and greedy! They ruined my reputation!”
Lan Long shook his head and stated, “Are you talking about Yun Zhang wanting to marry you? This matter didn’t ruin your reputation. Instead, everyone’s saying you’re a grateful girl who repays her debts.”
“That’s all Yun Zhang’s scheme. In actuality, he wants me dead! He did it all for his biological sister, Yun Nan! For Yun Nan, he’s even willing to tear me into pieces! I hate them! I hate them all! I want the Yun family destroyed!” Yun Liu hissed hatefully.
Lan Long lifted her chin once more and shook his head. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. The venomous look doesn’t suit you. You should stick to looking weak and helpless—it’s more likable! Continue your sweet and innocent act. Don’t be like this. I don’t like it!”
Yun Liu was flabbergasted at that.
Lan Long ignored her reaction and went on, “The girls you and Tan Ning sent over are of good quality, much better than what Shi Gao provided back then. Gu Man’s in charge of this aspect after Shi Gao left. If you’re willing, I can hand it to you and Tan Ning.”
Yun Liu was shocked at the offer, and her heart beat wildly.
“As for Gu Man… Since she’s got a man on her mind, she won’t listen to me anymore. I don’t like disobedient women, understand?” Lan Long looked at Yun Liu meaningfully.
“I’m obedient! I’ll behave,” Yun Liu hurriedly assured him.
Lan Long smiled in satisfaction. “That’s good. You can go back to the Yun family first. Now’s not the time for you to fall out with the Yun family. After all, you don’t have Yun Entertainment under your control yet. You and Tan Ning remember to restock us with girls as soon as possible!”
Yun Liu stared blankly at the door after Lan Long left, her body trembling uncontrollably. ‘No one will help me. I only have myself,’ she thought. ‘I must destroy the Yun family!’
She took up her phone, called Tan Ning, and coldly ordered her, “Help me organize a team-building event for the newly signed artistes!”
“Yun Liu, where are you?” Tan Ning asked, voice quavering. “Where are you now?”
Sensing something had happened, Yun Liu asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Some of the artistes’ family members are here making a scene at the company. They smashed the front desk, said they’ve lost contact with their kids for a long time, and wanted us to give an explanation,” Tan Ning told her anxiously.
Yun Liu frowned. “Where’s Yun Zhang? Isn’t he at the company? It’s not the first time this kind of thing has happened, just let him handle it. For the sake of the Yun family’s reputation, he won’t ignore it.”
“Yun Zhang isn’t here at work. I heard he was drinking the entire night last night and got photographed by the media reporters. Some of the staff asked me early this morning if it’s true that—that you’ve fallen in love with someone else, and said that Yun Zhang was so saddened that he resorted to drinking his heartbreak away! Yun Liu, where the h*ll are you? Wherever you are, you mustn’t let the media reporters find you, understand?” Tan Ning urged.
“Ah!” A scream came from the phone, and Yun Liu’s heart skipped a beat. “What’s wrong?” she blurted out.
“S—someone’s smashing up my office,” Tan Ning muttered shakily. “The police are here—” The call ended on her end.
Feeling jumpy, Yun Liu hurriedly packed her things and headed out. She just arrived at the first floor when she bumped into Gu Man. Gu Man stretched out her hands, stopping Yun Liu in her tracks, and remarked, “Hey, Young Master Lan asked you to prepare new goods, so how’s the preparation going?”
Yun Liu wasn’t in a good mood and icily replied, “I haven’t!”
“You haven’t? That won’t do. I’m in urgent need of manpower!” Gu Man rebuked, not letting Yun Liu leave.
Yun Liu stared at Gu Man, thinking of what Lan Long had said in the morning, and said disdainfully, “You can always report me to Young Master Lan!”
Gu Man froze momentarily before she retorted, “You think I’m afraid to?”
Yun Liu’s bellyful of anger found an outlet in Gu Man. “I’m sure there’s nothing you’re afraid to do, Gu Man. After all, you have Young Master Xi’s support now! I definitely won’t dare to displease you when you become the Xi family’s young madam… However, that will only happen if the current young madam of the Xi family is willing to give up her spot!”
“Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll bury the years of your youth in this place. In the end, you’re just a shameful mistress. I advise you to consolidate your position first before anything else!”
“You b*tch!” Gu Man raged. “Did you have gunpowder for breakfast? I only asked you when your girls will arrive, and you fire off on me! Don’t think that you’re superior just because you climbed into Young Master Lan’s bed!” Gu Man was floored by Yun Liu’s attitude, and she naturally wouldn’t let her off.
