The Domineering Boss is Addicted to the Convict novel Chapter 10

"As long as you don't do anything illegal, why would I be disappointed?" she asked as she put on her socks and shoes again. Then, she got up and walked towards the small square table.

He smiled and looked at her back. His eyes flashed and he whispered to himself, "Well, sister, I really hope you won't be disappointed in the future."

Since that night at the club, Ling Luoyin had been feeling anxious. After all, Assistant Director He's attitude that day had been really odd. And the next day, Assistant Director He had not shown up at work. After another day, the director had even been changed.

As for the reason, no one in the film crew could seem to explain it. However, for some reason, Ling Luoyin felt that the change of the film's director had something to do with Assistant Director He. When she thought about it some more, she became afraid that it had something to do with Ling Yiran.

Then, a few days later, when she heard Assistant Director He had been hospitalized and that his right hand seemed to be ruined for life, she was dumbfounded. His right hand... If she remembered correctly, that was the hand that he had used to slap Ling Yiran with.

Ling Luoyin was panicking inside. "What the hell is going on?"

After Assistant Director He answered the phone that night, his attitude towards Ling Yiran had completely changed. As for what had happened to Assistant Director He afterwards... Was this all a coincidence? Or could it be that... Ling Yiran really had someone powerful behind her?

But if Ling Yiran really had someone watching over her, would she still be bitterly sweeping the road every day?

Ling Luoyin couldn't help but tell her parents about what had happened at the club that day. When Ling Guozhi heard that his youngest daughter had sent his eldest daughter to drink with an old man, he immediately glared at Ling Luoyin. "How could you ask your sister to do such a thing? At the very least, our family is..."

"It's just drinking together. What's the big deal? Besides, Luoyin did this for the family. Only if Luoyin makes it as a star will our family have a good future. Otherwise, do you want us to rely on your eldest daughter who had been to jail?" Fang Cuie interrupted.

Upon hearing this, Ling Guozhi's expression fell, but he didn't say anything.

"Dad, could sis really have found someone to help her? Otherwise, why would Assistant Director He have let go of her that night and even later ended up in the hospital himself?" Ling Luoyin asked.

How would he have known anything about this!?

Fang Cuie said, "You are her father after all. You should try to ask her about it. If she really has a backer now, she should tell the family about it. I'm worried that if she gets involved with some bad people, then our family will be dragged down as well. She was in prison before, and there are all sorts of people in prison. Who knows who she had met in there!"

The more Fang Cuie said, the more she thought it to be true. With Ling Yiran being like that, how could any powerful or rich person bother with her? Ling Yiran was likely to have met some shady people while in prison and made some deals with them.

Ling Guozhi frowned when he heard this. "She dares! If she implicates the family again, I'll break her legs myself!"

When Ling Yiran was still cooking a meal in the apartment room and waiting for Jin to come back for dinner, the doorbell rang. However, when she opened the door, what she saw was her father, her stepmother, and that stepsister of hers.

The three of them then rushed straight into her apartment. Ling Guozhi immediately asked, "Did you meet some shady people in prison? I'm telling you right now, if you dare do anything that will affect our family... Don't expect me to deal with you lightly!"

"What on earth did I do that would require you to ‘deal with me’?" Ling Yiran looked at her father coldly.

"Did you ask someone to break Assistant Director He's hand? He was just asking you to drink with him, and he didn't do anything else. How could you be so vicious? Did you lose your memory while in prison? Do you think that you can just do whatever you want after meeting some evil people in prison!?" Ling Guozhi scolded.

Ling Yiran snickered. "It seems like karma is real. He got what he deserved. Also, if you think that there's nothing wrong with drinking together, then go ahead and ask your precious daughter Ling Luoyin to drink with him instead. What did she scheme against me for!?"
