After disciplining the mother and daughter, Gu Ran bent down and took out a wet tissue and carefully wiped the hand that had touched the two of them just now. She then crumpled the tissue into a ball and threw it into the trash can.
“Let me tell you, I have video footage of all of your transactions with Director Li that night. And do you want to know how he is doing now? Do you want me to describe his tragic state for you to hear?”
Gu Yi trembled and leaned closer to Mother. Mother endured the pain in her body and hugged Gu Yi in trepidation. When she looked at Gu Ran, it was as if she was looking at the devil himself.
Gu Ran pursed her lips. “Since I have leverage against the both of you, you’d better behave yourself. If you dare pull any other dirty trick, today’s happenings will happen again!”
With that, Gu Ran turned around and left. When she was about to reach the door, she stopped and turned her head again. “Of course, you can also tell Chairman Gu, but let me tell you clearly! The Gu family will fall into my hands sooner or later!”
After leaving the Gu family, Gu Ran felt that she’d released much of her resentment. With her newfound lighthearted spirits, she decided to treat herself to a meal at a restaurant.
As she ate, Yu Xiang’s call came in.
“Gu Ran! What crazy stunt did you pull again! Who asked you to spout nonsense on Weibo!”
Gu Ran already had the foresight to hold the phone far away from her ear the moment she had heard Yu Xiang’s voice. It was only after Yu Xiang had quietened down somewhat did she finally speak. “I didn’t do anything!”
“Nothing! You clear everything from your account, then proceed to argue with your haters! Are you out of your mind?! Do you think your reputation isn’t dogwater enough as it is?!”
Gu Ran slurped up a mouthful of noodles and replied innocently, “Who said anything about arguing! Did they not say that my mother is dead? And something about throwing her cremated ashes into the Pacific Ocean? I merely gave them a thumbs up and praised them for being capable, is that really so wrong!”
“You!”
Yu Xiang was so angry that she almost vomited blood. “My friend, you’re a female celebrity with a gentle and soft demeanor to uphold for the public! You shouldn’t even be looking at such despicable nonsense in the first place, but you went a step further and went to reply to them?! Now everyone thinks that you’re a lunatic and has prepared a crowdfund to send you to a mental institution as we speak!”

“Oh, crowdfunding! That’s pretty good too. I’m in need of money right now!”
“Gu Ran!” Yu Xiang almost burst out from her end of the line to beat Gu Ran up!
“Calm down, calm down, Yu Xiang.” Gu Ran giggled. “I’m eating! This restaurant’s snail noodles tastes pretty decent. Want me to bring some back for you?”
Yu Xiang took a deep breath, and told herself silently to stop arguing with Gu Ran, lest she shave off a few years from her own lifespan.
Just as she was thinking this, the landline phone rang. She put aside Gu Ran’s call and picked it up.
“Hello, this is the production team of ‘Xianxia Daoism’. Your company’s Gu Ran has already passed the audition for the lead female role. Please bring her to the contract signing location as soon as possible.”
Yu Xiang was overjoyed. “Okay, okay. I’ll bring her over tomorrow.”
Gu Ran had finally done something good.
“Did you hear that? You passed the audition. Get your ass back to an early night’s rest and be prepared to sign the contract tomorrow!”

Gu Ran took a sip of soup and asked slowly, “Sister Yu, how much is the remuneration for this drama?”
“This is a low-cost production. After deducting the messy taxes and whatnot, it’ll probably be few hundred thousand yuan!”
“It’s only a few hundred thousand yuan!” Gu Ran suddenly lost interest. After deducting the company’s share, she would only have a few thousand yuan left.
“What, have you dropped into the money vat or something! This is your first lead role since you’ve debuted, so even if you lose money you better get your act together and give it your all, do you hear me!”
“Yes, yes, this one will go home and memorize my script this instant.”
