Chapter 78 - Her Counterattack (3)

Inside the clamorous bar, Xu Jin’ge was laying on the counter of the bar alone, downing glass after glass of wine. She was crying while downing her drinks, seemingly very broken-hearted. Several men, who’d attempted to approach her, were driven away by her fierce ranting.

As an actress, Shen Wei’an rarely visited places such as bars. Firstly, because of her image, and secondly, because there was always paparazzi behind her. Furthermore, she was always worried about being caught in a scandal. Today, however, she was in a horrible mood, so she wanted to come here, get drunk, and vent her feelings.

But, as soon as she’d sat down at the bar, she’d heard the whining of a woman beside her that sounded as irritating as a fly. She frowned and thought about switching to another spot, but when she saw the face of the woman, she suddenly gave up that idea.

Xu Jin’ge was the daughter of a real estate tycoon, and she used to host international artists but was now working under the banner of Blue Hall Entertainment. It seemed that she was quite close with President Fu.

When Shen Wei’an saw the sorry sight of Xu Jin’ge snivelling next to her; she held back her smile and shifted closer. She then handed Xu Jin’ge a glass of wine and asked with a tender smile, “Hey, aren’t you Jin’ge? Why are you here drinking all by yourself? Where’s President Fu? How come I don’t see him around?”

Xu Jin’ge quickly lifted her head and glared at her. “Although I’ve lost to Chen Meimei, I still have enough energy left to deal with a powerless person like you. So, I'm warning you, don’t mess with me.”

Shen Wei’an’s expression changed slightly upon hearing that.

And, in the next second, she suddenly started giggling joyfully; so much so that her body began shaking as she was laughing.

“How could you lose to Chen Meimei when you’re so outstanding? It looks like President Fu has quite bad taste!”

Xu Jin’ge sobbed hysterically, seemingly enveloped by immense sorrow. She choked on her sobs as she said, “How could I possibly lose to Chen Meimei? I’m prettier than her, and my family background is on par with hers! So, how did I possibly lose to her?! I just lost to that soul inside her body.”

“Haha!” Shen Wei chuckled before she sneered at her and said, “Looks like you’re really drunk.”

“What do you understand?” Xu Jin’ge looked just like a grumpy cat, fiercely glaring at Shen Wei’an. “Tell me, what do you know? If it was Chen Meimei, I wouldn’t have lost to her in this lifetime, but she’s not Chen Meimei. She’s Lan Jinyao; a woman who I’ll never be able to defeat! I won’t be able to defeat her, because Fu Bainian is deeply in love with her.”

Upon hearing the name ‘Lan Jinyao’ Shen Wei’an’s pupils immediately contracted, and she froze on the spot. Meanwhile, the glass in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.

“What did you just say?” Shen Wei’an’s lips trembled as she asked.

Xu Jin’ge was immersed in her sorrow, so she didn’t notice the peculiarity in Shen Wei'an. She downed another mouthful of wine and muttered to herself, “She’s Lan Jinyao; the same Lan Jinyao who supposedly died some time ago!”

Shen Wei’an’s eyes spun as she tightly gripped Xu Jin’ge’s arm.

“You’re lying to me, aren’t you?”

Xu Jin’ge shook off her hand and then stumbled out of the bar.

Looking at Xu Jin’ge’s departing figure, Shen Wei’an remained seated in a daze. Those words she’d just heard were so shocking that she remained in a trance for quite a long while.

It seemed as if a gaping hole had opened up in her heart, revealing a fathomless black hole.

“Wasn't Lan Jinyao already dead? Why did she come back? Lan Jinyao, are you an evil spirit? How was it possible for her soul to enter Chen Meimei’s body?”

The bartender stared at Shen Wei’an, who’d seemingly gone mad as she was laughing and crying at the same time, and handed her another glass of wine.
