Chapter 678: 678 Is it so fun to be slandered? Hearing this, Shi Lan couldn’t help but doubt if Shi Mother genuinely didn’t manage to dodge or if she never intended to dodge in the first place. Fınd the newest release on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵 With the evidence of those two beasts’ violence, Shi Mother would have the upper hand both in the company and in public opinion. Indeed, she was already outdoing her teacher. Shi Mother had made great progress and had learned to strategize in advance. And her ambition was laid bare since her goal was to drive out everyone from the Shi Family rightfully and make them like stray dogs ousted from their home. “It’s cold at the top, don’t make yourself too lonely,” Shi Lan said to Shi Mother. “Consider it a debt I owe Shi Lan.” As they spoke, they had already entered the police station. After the lawyer finished the procedures, he took Shi Lan and another along with the police to the visitation room. “Go in,” Shi Mother said to Shi Lan, “Remember you only have ten minutes.” The first person Shi Lan saw was the ghostly Si Junlan, who must have been terrified during this time. Her figure, which was once charming, now appeared wasted away, her messy hair revealing quite a few strands of white. “Why is it you? I want to see my lawyer!” Si Junlan struggled in her chair. “Auntie San, hello,” Shi Lan said with a smile while greeting Si Junlan, “It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other…” Hearing the term ‘Auntie San’, Si Junlan found the girl in front of her somewhat eerie and said defensively, “Who’s your Auntie San? Don’t think you can just claim relationships because you’re involved with Yan Shixiu.” “I still remember, the morning of the car accident a year ago, I received a phone call. Someone said her son was about to get engaged and wanted me to give up five percent of the Shuangshi’s shares as startup capital for her son’s marriage, but unfortunately, I flatly refused…” Shi Lan said slowly, “I wonder, was that woman on the phone you, Auntie San?” After hearing Shi Lan’s words, Si Junlan’s pupils suddenly dilated, becoming frantic and horrified, “How did you know that? Who told you?” “Even earlier, you encouraged your useless son to tamper with my private plane. Unfortunately, you had bad luck; it just happened to coincide with a maintenance check. Thus your useless son ended up with a broken rib thanks to someone I sent.” “Auntie San, you wanted me dead so badly, and when you finally succeeded, why am I… back again?” “Impossible… This can’t be true!” Si Junlan stared at Shi Lan in disbelief, “You’re not her, you’re just spooking me.” “Now you’re just a murderer, what do I gain by deceiving you? I’ve come to see you off on your last journey, simply to tell you that I will surely…take good care of your two sons. What you owe me… I will make sure they pay back in full and clear.” “No! The one who wanted to kill you was me! It was Shi Yihui, and it has nothing to do with my sons. You can’t take revenge on them; they’re innocent!” Si Junlan lunged at Shi Lan like a madwoman, but sadly, to no avail. “The feeling of being crushed all over is not pleasant; I have to let your children get a taste too. I assure you, I will try to be as gentle as possible!” When Shi Lan said this, her eyes were full of playfulness, no different from the “perverse” Shi Lan of old. Si Junlan was scared out of her wits, her hands clenched into tight fists, “Don’t touch my sons…” However, at that moment, the police pushed the door open and said, “The visitation time is over.” “Officer, comrade officer… she’s not human, she’s a devil! She’s going after my sons, let me out!” Shi Lan, watching Si Junlan being dragged away, suddenly felt it was all uninteresting. “There are still two more.” Shi Mother reminded her from outside the door. “Suddenly, I don’t want to see them anymore. If there’s any good news in the future, just pass on a message for me. If a son is not doing well, his father should be the first to know that he is about to lose his lineage.” “I’m afraid Shi Hongyu doesn’t care about Guangxuan, that adopted son, at all,” Shi Mother said. “Do you think he only has an adopted son?” Shi Lan asked meaningfully in response to Shi Mother. “To completely eliminate them is to extinguish all their hopes.” “Right now, I actually wish that Old Master Shi could live, to watch with eyes wide open how his descendants fall into ruin and decay.” “But it doesn’t matter anymore. Everything from now on has nothing to do with me. Whether you continue to maintain the Shi family or choose to change your profession and surname, don’t give the Shi family any chances. I hope to see the Shi family broken and eradicated.” The grudges of the past have become a matter of a former life. From now on, the Shi family had no ties to her anymore. Having said that, Shi Lan stepped out of the police station. Shi Mother watched Shi Lan leave and simply said quietly, “I will do as you wish.” The three members of the Shi family were soon transferred, and what followed was the job of the prosecutor’s office and the court. Shi Guangxuan, as the adopted son of Ding Hong and Shi Hongyu, chose to leave the sorrowful place of Yancheng and set off for new horizons after learning the truth. No one made it difficult for him, because after all, he was not truly a member of the Shi family. As for the two sons of Shi Yihui, on the day their parents were transferred, they went to Shuangshi and caused a great commotion, even shouting their intent to openly dispute the Shi family fortune with Shi Mother. Shi Mother did not address it immediately because she wanted to see if there were still shareholders and employees within the Shi corporation brazen enough to secretly curry favor with the brothers. If there were, it would be a divinely bestowed opportunity for her to sweep them all up. As the Shi family scandal hit the news, years of their scandals and the death of Shi Lan were laid bare for all to see. Netizens also expressed their shock, realizing that this was the true face of a top-tier, corrupt family… @ChiveGarden: “The only one who got out of the Shi family unscathed is Yan Shixiu.” @DreamyClownFace: “The Shi family’s eldest daughter died so tragically.” @SkyLiftingEarthDudu: “Suddenly I don’t envy An Lan at all, I even feel a bit sorry for her. To think that behind the glory of marrying into a wealthy family lies such cruel and bloody realities.” @SYL: “Do you really believe that the death of Miss Shi has nothing to do with that person from Shuangshi? The more I think about it, the scarier it seems.” As the affairs of the Shi family were exposed, the tragic schemes that Shi Lan suffered in her lifetime also continuously came to light. In the vast Shi family, every person harbored ill intentions, wishing death upon her. If that was the case, then Yan Shixiu, who was forced into marriage, might wish for Shi Lan’s death more than anyone else? Otherwise, he might never escape the control of Miss Shi for the rest of his life. The outside world made many speculations about this. When Shi Lan saw these comments, she felt a mix of laughter and tears—the storytelling abilities of this generation of netizens had greatly improved. “If I were in their place, I wouldn’t believe in my own innocence either,” Yan Shixiu said into her ear. “You find being slandered that amusing?” The young lady suddenly became displeased.
