Chapter 6 - 006 Wants to Be a Dad

The receptionist led Tang Ze and Shi Lan into the conference room, and at that moment, Tang Ze was startled by the atmosphere in the room, as he had not anticipated that Yan Shixiu would personally come to oversee the signing.

The dread that emanated from this man was so intense that even Tang Ze, a male himself, couldn't help but shudder, let alone the young girl beside him. Therefore, he instinctively took care of Shi Lan's feelings.

However, the moment Shi Lan entered the conference room and saw Yan Shixiu, she wished she could bite him. There was no fear in her eyes, only anger, as if the quarrel she had with Yan Shixiu had occurred just yesterday.

"An Lan, this is President Yan," Tang Ze reminded Shi Lan, "Say hello."

Yan Shixiu had noticed the familiar expression on Shi Lan's face the moment she walked through the door. Even though it was a completely strange and much younger face, in that instant, he felt as if the person who entered was Shi Lan, with the same demeanor, eyes, and the way she usually argued with him at home.

Shi Lan came to her senses, remembered her identity, and restrained her "hatred" for Yan Shixiu, greeting all the staff of Huahai with "politeness."

Miss Shi is humbly online.

"There's no need to be formal. Let's get straight to the point, you sign, and I'm just here to look," Yan Shixiu finally spoke, having sat at the head of the table for a long time.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, then began discussing Shi Lan's film remuneration and breach of contract clauses.

Yan Shixiu sat in the main seat, carefully observing the young girl across from him, from her makeup to her behavior, while his right hand unconsciously twirled the wedding ring on his left ring finger.

Everyone present noticed it, and naturally, so did Shi Lan. It was hard to describe how she felt, but she had taken hers off long ago, never really wore it seriously. In her marriage with Yan Shixiu, she had been the one insisting on the relationship, yet even after three years, she never felt that Yan Shixiu belonged to her. His heart was as solid as a fortress, more expensive than the land price of the White House.

He would probably take it off soon, too, but that had nothing to do with her now. If she said now that she was Shi Lan and wanted to retrieve Shi Lan's belongings, probably the whole world would think she had gone mad.

So, Shi Lan forced her attention back to the contract. That was her future career.

"If both parties have no issues, let's sign the contract," the Huahai personnel handed over two copies of the contract and a signing pen.

Tang Ze handed the pen to Shi Lan, who took it, waved it big and realized she had out of habit written a day, then quickly erased it and switched to her left hand to rewrite.

"What's wrong?" Tang Ze noticed and quickly asked.

"The right hand still can't muster strength," Shi Lan pointed to the injury on her wrist and explained, which also temporarily covered why her handwriting and An Lan's were different.

After signing, Shi Lan handed out the contract.

Eventually, one copy of the contract reached Yan Shixiu.

He casually flipped through it, saw the erased handwriting, and quipped, "As an artist, you should at least practice signing."

"An Lan's hand hasn't fully recovered yet," Tang Ze explained for Shi Lan.

"I remember Miss An also has some negative news about her. I hope that after you join the crew, you manage your personal matters well and don't let personal feelings cause the crew to suffer."

Yan Shixiu subtly referred to An Lan's grudge with that National Couple.

"Don't worry, President Yan, I will settle things with Huahai."

"Then do it soon!"

"..."

This infuriating man still spoke in such an annoying manner, Shi Lan felt a headache coming on, wanting to stay away from this so-called gentleman.

Since the marriage was a thing of the past, Shi Lan naturally hoped she wouldn't fall into romantic entanglements again. This life, she wanted to live unrestrained and free!

Fortunately, the signing ceremony did not last long. Yan Shixiu dismissed everyone quite straightforwardly, but, as An Lan was leaving, Yan Shixiu pushed up his glasses and said, "I will appear in the crew to visit from time to time."

Shi Lan's refusal was on the tip of her tongue, but suddenly she remembered, at the moment, he was the father.

Shi Lan held back her anger and left with Tang Ze, but after getting into the car, Tang Ze's first words to her were, "I always feel like you know President Yan."

Shi Lan: "..."

We don't know each other, don't talk nonsense, I don't!

Silly brother, that was a bad karma from a past life.

"Eh?" After getting into the car, Tang Ze suddenly said to Shi Lan, "Gu Chengyu has repaid the debt, and he also said..."

"What did he say?" Shi Lan asked, fiddling with her long hair.

"He also said for you not to appear before him again. Before, he was tolerating it because of being classmates, but he won't be so polite anymore. If you contact him privately again, he will hand it over to lawyers. He also said… you could throw yourself at him for another ten years, and he would not spare you a glance."

"Not to mention, he's really full of himself... such trash, and you treat him like a treasure," Tang Ze couldn't help but complain for Shi Lan.

Shi Lan was calm: "As long as he repays the money, all is well. As for the rest? Wait a few days and watch a good show in the crew."

As for what lawyers or not, she didn't know; she only knew she was hired by Huahai. Let Gu Chengyu dare to sue and try?

Moreover, now that Huahai was in Yan Shixiu's hands, thinking about this made Shi Lan's mood fall into complexity again."

Even if she really had time to make her will half a month ago, she still had no one she wanted to leave things to. Rather than having the Shi Family take over her inheritance, she would prefer Yan Shixiu to inherit it.

But thinking about his upcoming remarriage and another woman reaping the benefits, Shi Lan felt like drawing her sword again.

Plainly speaking, she wanted to be Yan Shixiu's dad, but the reality was just the opposite.
