30: Sadako

Sadako

After she was done taking care of the pressing matters, Song Yan was much more relaxed. She checked the time on the clock and then looked at the message that Li Rou has sent her. The message was about the arrangements she has made for the ' meeting' with the investor and according to these arrangements, Song Yan still had more than five hours to get ready and head to the company.2

Plenty of time for her to get ready, so Song Yan picked up her cellphone and headed to the herbal shops of the town, where she bought several medicinal herbs. Even though she wanted to buy the high grades herbs, the balance in her account was so terrifyingly low that forget about buying them she couldn't even head to the section where they sold the high-grade herbs! Why was she so prideful in the past? So, what if the Fu family called her a gold digger? Getting smacked in the face with money was better than standing in a high-grade medicinal herbs shop with a broken bank balance.

In the end, Song Yan had no choice but to make the most difficult decision, she chose the herbs that were the cheapest yet beneficial and watched in silence as the cashier swiped her card and instantly a hole of ten thousand yuan was made in her pockets. 

Song Yan felt like her heart was dripping blood, her total bank balance was a hundred thousand and now it was down to ninety thousand!

Whatever, this was for increasing her strength. Without a healthy body, how will she make millions? Thus, even though Song Yan felt like she just lost an inch of her skin, she still picked up the herbs that she purchased and returned home.

Then she brewed a concoction to recover the life force that she lost while breaking the grudge field and nestled in the small bathtub.  As she sensed her damaged life force being recovered, Song Yan sighed in contentment, at least wasting those ten thousand was worth it. 

Though her body still possessed the cultivated skills from her previous life as a ghost, her life force was indeed a point of worry for her. After staying as a ghost for so long, her body possessed more Yin energy than the Yang energy. If this continued then her existence as a human will be threatened, last night she was indeed too rash and lost so much Yang energy while breaking the grudge field. 

Restraining evil spirits with a low cultivation level was an easy task but if she ended up facing another situation like last night, then maybe she will end up losing her life. Some crises arrived without any prior notice, it was better to be prepared than being sorry.

Once the clock struck four, Song Yan put on a classy dress that was neither too long nor short, packed the necessary things she needed in her spirit ring and then took a taxi to the company.  After she took the elevator to the floor where the non-popular actress usually got ready,  she recognised a woman who was standing outside the dressing room and when she saw her coming she ecstatically jumped and went inside the dressing room. 

The woman who rushed inside the dressing room as soon as she saw Song Yan, immediately notified the others who were waiting for Song Yan's arrival, " She is here, get ready! We will teach her a good lesson. Humph, to think that ugly duckling had the audacity to bully sister Lan!"

Song Yan tilted her head and immediately summoned Fang Yanli. " Go and see what are they planning."

Fang Yanli nodded and floated past the concrete wall, it didn't even take her more than two minutes before she returned and clicked her tongue in annoyance. " Song Yan, why don't you be honest with me and give me a list of people you have offended, that's not too much, right?"

Song Yan raised a brow and stared at Fang Yanli until the latter, succumbed under the pressure of her glare, "It's nothing, they have prepared a bucket of makeup remover and are waiting to dump it on you. Apparently, they are under the impression that you have bullied Song Lan."

Oh, so the situation was like this. She wasn't surprised that Song Lan continued with her pretences even when she was absent. That girl just never got tired of acting like a victim.

Fang Yanli stared at Song Yan and raised a brow with a gossipy expression, " what are you going to do now?" 

Song Yan didn't answer her, the corridor had many surveillance cameras, and she didn't want anyone to catch her talking to air. She quickly stood in front of the dressing room and used her years of skills that she has learned and pulled on a hesitating expression as if she was conflicted about something. 

When Li Rou found out that Song Yan has arrived, she immediately rushed to the fifth floor.  She didn't want anyone to mess up her well-thought plan, when she saw Song Yan who was standing outside the dressing room, she strode forward and with a frown approached Song Yan, " What are you doing here? Why aren't you going inside?"

Song Yan was bored to death while waiting for Li Rou, now that her target was here, she  immediately smiled ruefully and looked at Li Rou, "It's nothing Sister Li, I am just a bit nervous, it has been so long and I-"

" What are you nervous about? Aren't you good friends with the girls already?" said Li Rou while rolling her eyes. Since Song Yan has always behaved like this Li Rou was not at all suspicious instead she pushed open the door of the dressing room, she was just about to call Song Yan and didn't expect to be smacked with a huge bucket of makeup remover. The liquid splashed her full in the face, and Li Rou who was dressed in a fine business suit with elegant makeup instantly turned into Sadako.
