Help! The Seductive Villain Chases Me Everyday to Expose My Other Identities! Chapter 50 – 50 He and I Have Already Confirmed Our Relationship

50 He and I Have Already Confirmed Our Relationship
Ji Wenfeng was silent for a long time. In the end, he only said, “It's nothing. Her acting skills are very good. Be careful not to be covered by her talent.”

At this moment, she opened her eyes and looked at him teasingly.

“Is that all you want to say?”

“What's with that look?” Ji Wenfeng rubbed his nose.

“Nothing.” Shi Ran closed her eyes again, the smile still on her lips.

Just then her phone buzzed in her pocket.

She picked it up.

—Shi Baili.

She didn't answer immediately. Instead, she turned the phone over as if she was deep in thoughts.

It was definitely not a good thing for Father Shi, or Shi Baili, to call her.

She looked back at all the recent events that had happened.

Shi Ran sneered. She had already guessed the other party's motive.

Sliding the answer button, she raised her phone to her ear.

“Come back for a minute. I need to talk to you,” he said in a tone that brooked no argument.

“Get yourself over here and meet me.”

With that, Shi Ran hung up.

Ji Wenfeng glanced sideways but did not say anything.

Four hours later, the car finally stopped outside Shi Ran's apartment building.

She got out of the car.

Another car arrived next and pulled sideways in front of them.

The window lowered, revealing Shi Baili's face.

His eyes were shrewd, and he looked at Shi Ran not as if he were looking at his daughter at all, but as if he were assessing the value of a commodity.

“I heard you know Third Young Master Chu of the KT Group?” Shi Baili went straight to the point.

“What do you want to know?” Shi Ran sneered.

“I want to know what your relationship with Third Young Master Chu is,” he asked directly.

Shi Ran brushed her index finger across her red lips and said casually, “He and I… have already confirmed our relationship.”

“Bam—”

The suitcase in Ji Wenfeng's hand fell to the ground with a dull thud.

He looked appalled.

Third Young Master and Shi Ran were together???

‘Are you telling me the truth?' Shi Baili tried to control himself, trying not to let anyone guess what he was feeling.

“Isn't that what you wanted to hear?”

The expression on Shi Baili's face froze. “You lied to me?”

“What else would it be?”

Shi Shili's eyes were like torches as he secretly observed Shi Ran.

His adopted daughter was getting more and more out of control.

Remembering the purpose of his visit, he said, “I need to talk to you.”

“I'm not interested.” The refusal was immediate.

‘Don't you want to know about your brother?'

Then Shi Ran's eyes narrowed.

Five minutes later, Shi Ran and Shi Baili sat facing each other in the café.

The waiter placed a cup of black coffee in front of Shi Ran.

Shi Ran only took a glance at Shi Baili. “Go ahead.”

“You've changed a lot.” Shi Baili leaned back in his chair and folded his hands on his lap.

Shi Ran pursed her lips and didn't reply.

Seeing this, Shi Baili could only say, “Before your brother died, he left you something.”

“State your terms,” Shi Ran said coldly.

Shi Baili and the others had never told her before that her brother had left her something.

Now, suddenly, whether it was true or not, there had to be a purpose.

Shi Baili looked appreciatively at Shi Ran.

This adopted daughter was indeed different. She had gotten much smarter.

He took a file from his assistant and handed it to Shi Ran.

Shi Ran briefly flipped through it.

It was the tender proposal.

“KT Group is launching a new project and our company is involved in the tender.”

Shi Ran closed the file.

“You want me to help you by pulling strings? What do you think my relationship with Third Young Master Chu is?”

“Whatever the relationship, as long as you can do it, I'll give you your brother's things.” Shi Baili's tone was cold and curt.

“Ha.” Shi Ran sneered.

She tossed the plan she was holding into Shi Baili's arms.

Seeing Shi Baili's dark expression, she smiled. “Do you think you can make me work for you with just these things?”

“Then what are your terms?”

Shi Ran propped her chin on her hand, her eyes filled with interest. “I want five percent of Shihong Real Estate.”

“That's impossible!” Shi Baili refused immediately, his face turning ashen.

“Then what's there to talk about?” Shi Ran pretended to leave.

“Wait.”

Shili called out to Shi Ran. After pondering for a moment, he said, “It's true that when Old Master passed away, he left you 5% of the shares. But that should have been given to Feifei.”

Shi Ran rubbed the side of her cup, waiting for Shi Baili to continue.

“I originally planned to find a time for you to transfer the shares back to Feifei. If you can help Shihong successfully bid this time, I'll treat the 5% as a gift to you.”

Shi Ran was amused. “Grandpa left me this five percent in the first place. Even if I walk the law, it still belongs to me. You're using my things to negotiate terms with me?”

“Shi Ran, you want to marry Third Young Master Chu, but do you think you're worthy? Only by making the Shi family better can you have a chance to marry into a rich family. Do you need me to tell you this?”

Shi Ran curled her fingers through her hair.

The most commonly heard thing in the past two days was that she was not worthy of Chu Jinchen.

Although she had no feelings for Chu Jinchen, it was really annoying to be belittled like this.

She looked at Shi Baili and smiled. “No matter how good the Shi family has become, the Chu family looks down on us. So stop dreaming.”

With that, she got up and left.

She felt she'd wasted the most important ten minutes of her life.

A meaningless conversation.

Still… it wasn't completely useless.

When Shi Ran got home, she went straight to the study and took out a bank card from the safe.

Old Master had given her this bank card back then. He said that every year, her allowance would be sent to this card.

Shi Ran logged into the bank system and checked every transfer record.

From the time the original owner was twelve years old, this card would receive a sum of money every month, from the initial five thousand a month to ten thousand, fifty thousand, and eventually a hundred thousand.

The last remittance had been made five years ago in June. The amount was as high as three hundred thousand.

Old Master Shi had passed away when the original owner was 15 years old, which was eight years ago. Then who had transferred the money during the last three years?

Shi Ran scanned the sender's details. There was only one card number.

Her fingers flew as she worked quickly. Her dark brown pupils reflected the rapidly flashing code.

‘Newtown?'

A city overseas.

His younger brother had also been treated in Newtown.

Besides, the original book had mentioned that the original owner's brother had died at the end of June, five years ago.

Was it a coincidence?

She tapped her index finger on the table, deep in thought.

At that moment, the phone on the table buzzed.

She picked it up.

Chu Jinchen's message.

[Chu Jinchen]: KT Group's tender project involves Shihong Real Estate.

Shi Ran raised her eyebrows.

Shi Baili said that it was a small project. How could a big CEO like Chu Jinchen mind a small project like this?

She composed a message and sent it.

[Shi Ran]: Does Third Young Master also manage small projects?

[Chu Jinchen]: The people below think that we have a close relationship, so they submitted it. It seems that everyone thinks that I like you.

[Shi Ran]: Don't show off in front of the camera. Perhaps no one will have an wrong impression then.

[Chu Jinchen]: Wrong Impression?

[Shi Ran]: If you want to take revenge on me for breaking into the bathroom in the first place, that's fine with me, but don't do it in front of the camera. It's too troublesome.
