《Being A Shrew To My Ex-Husband》Chapter 53: Waiting for Summer
Advertisement
At Blu-Ray Media Company.
Lan Jian was in a pretty good mood today. He was lying on his chair with his legs crossed in a corner of the desk. With a faint smile on his face, Lan Jian held a cup of coffee. Last night, he had personally seen Wei Zhou suffer. This incident could fuel a few days’ gossip at the least.
At this moment, Lan Jian’s secretary knocked on the door and came in. He said in a trembling voice, “CEO Lan, Secretary Wang has just replied that Miss Summer has refused to meet with you!”
Lan Jian was speechless.
Lan Jian had been rejected once again by Summer. His beautiful mood turned nasty in an instant. When he woke up this morning, Lan Jian remembered Wei Zhou’s analysis last night, so he immediately asked his secretary to invite the person behind the Dazzle Culture Company. Later, someone from the Dazzle Culture Company informed Lan Jian that nobody knew the boss’s real name, only that she called herself Summer.
“Miss Summer, right? It seems that you’re a foreigner and don’t know much about the way we interact in the business world in our country,” Lan Jian said to himself as he sipped his coffee.
...
On the ground floor of the Dazzle Culture Company. .
Lan Jian dressed fashionably and sat in a luxury car. He would occasionally cast his gaze at the entrance of the Dazzle Culture Company. Although Summer had rejected him twice, he himself was quite curious about Summer. Lan Jian wanted to come in person so he could get to know Summer, and see who exactly this person was
Half an hour passed. Lan Jian was too bored from waiting, so he called Wei Zhou. However, the phone would be hung up every time right as the call got through. Thus, Lan Jian displayed his perseverance and called again and again.

Finally, Wei Zhou picked up the phone. Before Wei Zhou could get angry, Lan Jian quickly said, “Guess where I am, Zhouzhou?!”
“Are you that bored, you little bitch? Well, if you have something to say, say it quickly. I don’t have time to waste on you.” After pausing for a second, Lan Jian heard Wei Zhou’s cold voice.
“Hehe, I am at the ground floor of the Dazzle Culture Building. They are holding a board meeting today, and that Summer person doesn’t want to see me, so I specially came to wait for him. I believe that I’ll be able to meet him.” Lan Jian said, more to himself than to Wei Zhou.
Wei Zhou was speechless and said disdainfully, “It seems that I’m not wrong. You really have nothing better to do!”
Before Wei Zhou finished speaking, Lan Jian suddenly became silent, as if he had been strangled. Wei Zhou frowned and couldn’t be bothered with Lan Jian, so he prepared to hang up the phone.
“Damn! No way, Summer is actually Su Yan?!” Lan Jian exclaimed. “No wonder Dazzle Culture stopped working with us so suddenly. No wonder Summer doesn’t want to see me. It turns out that the biggest investor of Dazzle Culture is your ex-wife!”
Wei Zhou’s expression soured as soon as he heard the name ‘Su Yan’ and the word ‘ex-wife’. Fortunately, he did not hang up and asked hurriedly, “What did you say? Summer is actually Su Yan?!”
“Beep… beep…” The answer to Wei Zhou’s question was merely a series of dial tones.
“Lan Jian, you bitch!” Wei Zhou was so angry that he felt his heart almost stop.
After confirming that Summer was Su Yan, Lan Jian did not have time to talk nonsense with Wei Zhou any longer. He hung up and walked over. With a smile, Lan Jian said, “Haha, Miss Su, I really didn’t expect that you would be the famous Miss Summer. During this period of time, your reputation has preceded you!”

Su Yan looked at him and said indifferently, “CEO Lan, why don’t I understand what you’re saying?”
The corner of Lan Jian’s lips curled up. “Su Yan, it’s not the first time we’ve met. Don’t play the fool with me. Don’t you think so, Chairman of Dazzle Culture?”
Su Yan took a breath and shrugged. “What nonsense. You can think whatever you want. I don’t have the time nor am I obliged to explain myself to you.”
Su Yan has always been quite convincing in her acting. From the beginning to the end, she was calm and unhurried. She did not look embarrassed or awkward when her identity was exposed. Su Yan even looked at Lan Jian incredulously. Her acting was very realistic.
Sure enough, after watching Su Yan’s little act, Lan Jian said with a dumbfounded look, “It can’t be. My judgment can’t be wrong. If you are not the chairman of Dazzle Culture, then what are you doing here?”
“CEO Lan, you should be clear about this. Dazzle Culture is an investment company. Do I need to explain in detail what I am doing here?” Su Yan said with a laugh.
Lan Jian said with a sudden realization, “Oh, no wonder you came here. So you are here to try and attract investors.”
“That’s right. Is there a problem with that?” Su Yan retorted.
“Uh… No, there’s no problem. I was rude…” Lan Jian said awkwardly..

Regis and Charlotte
Regis knows it's an illusion. He's only ever seen Princess Charlotte from afar; only heard her voice when she spoke to a crowd. Sure he's good at reading people, but he knows she of all people will be wearing a perfect mask. The problem is he's in love with the illusion, and it's not going away. So he strikes out on a quest: win the fighting tournament held every year, where she gives out the prize, and hypothetically—just hypothetically—he can forfeit the monetary winnings and instead ask for a week to be close to her, to get to know the real her, and break the illusion once and for all.
