Chapter 72: Chapter 72: 072 Glory is coming to apologize?

Throughout the entire one and a half hours of the video, Sun Ling stayed on the sofa one meter away from Shi Lan, completely stunned and speechless with astonishment, not because she understood what was being said, but because Shi Lan’s switching of languages at any given time made her question her life.

As a student who graduated from a prominent university, Sun Ling thought her English was good enough to pass Level 6, so she could understand the parts in English. However, she had no clue what the other language was; it was just too advanced for her.

Of course, if she knew what Shi Lan and the other party were discussing, she might have been so thrilled she’d drop dead on the spot.

Miss Shi and the other party talked about finance, policies, corporate culture, and future trends. No matter the topic, it was all beyond her imagination.

When Shi Lan finished talking with the other party and closed the computer, Sun Ling was completely dazed.

“What are you daydreaming about? Where’s lunch?” Shi Lan waved her hand at Sun Ling.

...

“Oh, I’ll get it right away… I was just listening to your conversation,” Sun Ling explained awkwardly.

“Understood any of it?”

Sun Ling shook her head, “So, what were you both discussing?”

Shi Lan, not sure about the situation herself, teased Sun Ling on purpose, “We discussed why you are so lazy.”

It took a moment for Sun Ling to react, but when she did, her face turned white with fear. Even though she hadn’t been a part of An Lan’s past, she knew An Lan’s background to some extent. An Lan had been a sycophant, obsessively supportive of her younger brother, hadn’t even finished college, and even her acting skills were half-baked. How could she suddenly have such explosive acting ability and speak several languages?

So, on her way to the hotel to get food, Sun Ling sent Tang Ze a text message, asking, “Brother Tang, what do you think about An Lan speaking two languages?”

“I’d think you’ve gone crazy,” Tang Ze replied without hesitation, “An Lan hasn’t even passed English Level 4, being fluent in two dialects would be more like it.”

Seeing this reply, Sun Ling’s hands started shaking, “Tang… Brother Tang, I really think I’m seeing a ghost.”

Midday, and you’re not letting people nap, what’s gotten into you? The real issue is, by humoring you, I’d be the one seeing ghosts.”

Sun Ling: “…”

Tang Ze was incredulous, while Sun Ling moped all the way, muttering the core socialist values. When she finally mustered the courage to return to the room, she saw Shi Lan nibbling on biscuits, babbling incoherently, “Just eating biscuits by yourself, hehe…”

Shi Lan looked up, glanced at Sun Ling, and replied, “I’m afraid eating them as half a person here might scare you to death.”

Then Sun Ling’s face turned even paler with fright.

Seeing that she had genuinely scared her, Shi Lan walked over, took the tray, and said, “What’s with all the crazy thoughts in your head? I learned those languages on my own because I was always around Gu Chengyu and my dummy brother, so I never had the chance to take exams.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Ling sighed with relief, nearly losing her soul from fright.

Miss Shi gave Sun Ling a perfunctory response for now and sat down to eat peacefully. At that moment, Yan Shixiu sent a text: “Free? Take a call.”

Shi Lan: “You call.”

The next second, Yan Shixiu’s call came through, “Glory’s side contacted Huahai, they want to visit the film set this afternoon. Since the Glory Asia Pacific head is involved, they thought it best to apologize to you in person. Any issues with that?”

Shi Lan hit the speakerphone button and continued eating while responding, “Let them come.”@@novelbin@@

This inquiry from Yan Shixiu was purely superfluous—who would refuse such a face-saving opportunity? Miss Shi wouldn’t be an exception.

Director Yan: “Alright, and what fruit would you like this afternoon?”

“Kiwifruit, the sweetest kind.”

Then, they ended the call.

Sun Ling continued to be in a state of bewilderment.

What? Glory is coming to apologize?

How did An Lan manage that? And Director Yan isn’t even surprised!

And, why do these two still have this not-so-close yet ambiguous relationship!?
