Chapter 42: Country A’s Experience

The screenwriter noticed Shi Wan's shocked face and realized that he seemed to have exposed other people's thoughts, but he still asked: "So... can you guys think about it?"

Shi Wan withdrew her inquiring gaze from Pei Cheng and said, "I'm sorry, he really..."

"I'll act." Pei Cheng interrupted her.

Shi Wan: “?” She was filled with question marks. What could he use to act?

"Okay! Then I'll go back and revise Senior Brother's part! And then I'll bring the new script to sign a contract with you tomorrow. I definitely won't cheat you!"

The screenwriter was as excited as a little girl and ran all the way to the hotel.

It was late and I didn't know where to send Pei Cheng.

Pei Cheng saw that she was confused and smiled nicely, "Please send me back to your hotel too!"

"Oh!" Shi Wan nodded in confusion and walked towards the hotel.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment. In his previous life, Shi Wan had no intention of caring about love matters.

------

Before graduating from university, Fu Jun got married, the family's financial situation improved suddenly, and Zhan Xu suddenly returned to China.

At that time, Shi Wan's classmates often teased Fu Jun for being the son-in-law of a wealthy family. Shi Wan actually didn't like this term. After all, her father was a son-in-law. She looked down on her father and didn't want her brother to be looked down upon.

Shi Wan started running around for film crews before graduating from college, from being an extra to a stand-in, to a role with one or two lines, and later she joined the crew of a well-known director and was appreciated by the director.

Originally everything was going according to the script she had set. As long as she could become a big star with her own abilities and make money to start a company for her brother, she could help her brother escape the situation of being ridiculed.

Unexpectedly, after a cocktail party, Shi Wan's sister-in-law Alice got drunk, teased Shi Wan, and bluntly asked Shi Wan to sleep with her for a night, and she would give a company to Fu Jun to manage, so that he would no longer have to continue to be her brother's canary and would not have to be tortured by her perverted brother.

Shi Wan felt as if he had been hit on the head by a blow. He was completely dumbfounded and even more disgusted.

She vomited for a long time in the bathroom.

Thinking back to every time she saw Fu Jun, he looked listless, even a little listless, she thought that as others joked, Fu Jun had no self-control during their wedding, so...

But I didn’t expect the real reason was this!

Alice asked with a mocking smile at the bathroom door: "Why are you pretending to be innocent in front of me now? Isn't it because you know the truth that you have been looking down on me?"

He vomited again late at night.

Alice sneered and continued to sarcastically say, "It's your brother's blessing that my brother likes your brother. But you are a bunch of weaklings in your family. You can't endure hardships and still want to enjoy wealth and glory? Do you really think that we rich people are stupid? You only care about your beauty?"

"Shut up!" Shi Wan scolded coldly with red eyes.

Alice pretended to be very scared and continued to tease Shi Wan: "I'm so scared!"

As she spoke, she called several of the family's servants to join in the fun, "Look, the rabbit can bite people!"

She joked, but her expression changed in an instant. She raised the corner of her mouth, looked down at Shi Wan, and said arrogantly: "Change to a Fortune 1,000 company in one night. If you agree, come here clean and don't act noble in front of me."

After Alice finished speaking, she did not leave, but waited at the bathroom door. Her eyes were like those of a prey waiting for her to come to her door, and she was determined to get it.

Shi Wan's sensitive sixth sense detected the danger and she no longer cared about her face. She took advantage of the opportunity, broke out of the encirclement of several people, and ran for her life.

Alice and several servants chased after her, laughing.

Alice shouted, "Why are you running away? Aren't you going to come back and beg me?"

"I just like stupid idiots like you who don't realize it! I heard that you always stood up for a man in high school! His name is Jiang Yifeng, right?"

Shi Wan ignored him and continued running towards the castle gate.

Alice was relentless but also chased her nonchalantly: "Do you know who your stepmother is to him? She is his biological mother! You are so stupid! To use your old saying, you are being sold and still helping others count money! It is much better for you to follow me than those stinky men. At least I will not count on your family's property, and I can even give you property! Why are you running away? I can take back your mother's big house at any time!"

Shi Wan's eyes were blurred with tears, but she just followed her inner instinct and continued to run away. Every word Alice said hurt her, as if she was also responsible for Fu Wan's betrayal.

Is it because she brought Jiang Yifeng home to play and Jiang Yifeng set his eyes on her house, so he sent his mother to destroy her house?

Suddenly, Shi Wan was blocked by a huge figure and bumped into that person hard.

"Wanwan?" A familiar voice of Fu Jun came from behind that person.

The footsteps behind Shi Wan also stopped.

The huge man is Alice's brother Oliver. Although he is a little fat, his every move and gesture exudes aristocratic temperament.

Oliver looked down at Shi Wan, then glanced coldly at Alice and several servants behind Shi Wan.

Alice said "huh" arrogantly, shook her hair, and turned back to the castle.

Fu Jun came over and helped Shi Wan up.

Shi Wan suddenly opened his hand and said sharply: "Don't touch me!"

Fu Jun's hands froze in mid-air, his eyes filled with pain.

Shi Wan got up and was about to leave.

Oliver's cold voice came: "You should know what you can and cannot say."

Shi Wan paused slightly, feeling her life was threatened. She remembered how Zhan Xu described this man before he left: This man is cruel and ruthless, you'd better try not to provoke him, otherwise I won't even have a chance to save you.

The meaning is very clear. Oliver might be the kind of character who would kill someone if he disagreed with something. After all, this is Country A, where people are allowed to carry guns freely.

Shi Wan did not answer. He straightened his back and strode out of their manor.

Then he investigated everything about Jiang Yifeng in Country A, and finally chose to return home.

Therefore, if she had not seen Zhan Xu disregarding his future for her after her death in the previous life, she would have never known about Zhan Xu's feelings for her.

As for Pei Cheng, there is no need to mention it.

Her acquaintance with Pei Cheng was an accident.

That day was Pei Lie's eighteenth birthday. The Shi family was on the invitation list, and Mao Yuzhen brought Shi Xinyan to attend Pei Lie's birthday party.

At first, they were just playing their own games and everything was peaceful until Jin Tiantian appeared.

Shi Xinyan was not used to seeing Shi Wan's dazzling appearance at the banquet. Just then, Jin Tiantian came over, so Shi Xinyan leaned over to Shi Wan's ear and said, "The eldest lady of the Jin family is here. I heard she came to see you!"

Shi Wan didn't know what she meant at first, and said coldly: "It's none of my business!"

Shi Xinyan looked triumphant: "She really likes Zhan Xu! Zhan Xu is your follower, right? The man she admires is your follower, what do you think she, the only daughter of the high and mighty Jin family, will do to you?"

When Shi Wan heard this, he slipped away.
