Xing Lan explained her situation with her parents to Lin Qian. Since Li Can had begun to cause trouble, her parents were definitely not far behind.
“After the top 100 is officially announced, the nature of the competition will change. You will need to attend a meeting about it later…” Lin Qian explained as she looked at the email sent by the organizers. But, Xing Lan’s mind seemed to be elsewhere. “What’s wrong?”
“Emma asked me to endure the attacks from the public. That’s easy, I can do that. But…I’m afraid of my parents. They are ruthless people.”
They were blood related, so it was very different to strangers.
Even if she didn’t care, how would the public view her?
Her parents had obviously never upheld their responsibilty as parents.
“There’s no point being afraid. Whatever will be, will be. Emma will help you handle it. Don’t worry, she’s an expert and she’s already given me thorough instructions.” Lin Qian then handed her phone to Xing Lan. “Look through the email yourself. I’m not going to read it to you.”
Xing Lan wanted to believe in Emma, but she had already dealt with the cruel couple for so many years that she didn’t think anyone could subdue them.
Lin Qian could tell that Xing Lan was still worried. But, when it came to matters like this, one had to witness it first hand to know that Emma could handle whatever r*bbish was thrown her way.
…
Emma had never been one to sit idly by. So, when it came to Xing Lan’s parents, she preferred to take the initiative.
While the two elders were deciding how to cause trouble for Xing Lan, Emma sent someone to invite the couple to a dinner at a five-star hotel.
Of course, Lisa was the most suitable person for this task.
“Miss Long, where are you taking us?” Mother Li asked curiously.
Lisa did not say a thing as she delivered the two elders to the hotel, where they could eat and drink to their hearts’ content. This was treatment that the couple had never experienced.
That night, Mother Li also received a $1 million cheque from Lisa.
“Your daughter asked me to give you a gift.”
“Can Er is so good to us,” the two elders were extremely satisfied as they repeatedly praised Li Can. However, Lisa had to discourage them at this time.
“I’m sorry, but all that you’re enjoying today, including this cheque, is from your elder daughter, Xing Lan; also known as Li Xin.”
“This…” the two elders were shocked.
“Xing Lan is a filial person. After she signed with a good agency, she decided to give her first paycheck to you and did not pocket a single cent for herself,” Lisa added. “Also, she mentioned that she’d buy a house overseas if she wins first place because it’s her parents’ biggest wish.”
“Uncle, Auntie, I know you have another daughter, Li Can, who is currently known as the Queen of Ballads. But, to be honest, what has she done for you over the years?”
“Xing Lan has mentioned the disagreement bet**en her and her sister, and we have done some investigation into it. We discovered that Li Can has been scheming against her sister because she doesn’t want her to win first place. By saying this, you might think that I am driving a wedge bet**en you, but I hope you can look at the situation objectively.”
“Xing Lan spoke to me already. If you guys need anything, you can always contact me. She told me that she believes her parents are temporarily blinded by her sister’s lies and that your intentions aren’t truly bad.”
“If Xing Lan wins the competition this time, her future will not be limited to being a singer in a small agency, she may end up signing with a top class agency.”
“Is this something that Li Can can do?”
“I know that the two of you dug into your savings to buy Li Can a house because you want to live with her. But uncle, if you don’t believe me, you should give it a try. I bet Li Can will find a reason to shrug you off.”
“I’m sure the two of you know what to do. If you need anything, let me know. I’ll leave it at this for now.”
After speaking, Lisa boarded her car and left.
The two elders looked at the cheque in their hands with mixed emotions.
Mother Li immediately pulled out her phone and gave Li Can a phone call, “Can Can…”
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Li Can thought her mother had already spoken to Xing Lan and was waiting for the good news.
“I wanted to ask if you’ve finished with the renovations on the house that we helped you buy. Your father and I are planning to move over and live there for a few days…”
“Mom…the house is still being renovated…”
“It’s already been half a year. Hasn’t it finished yet?” Mother Li asked.
“It takes a while to renovate,” Li Can lied. “Either way, aren’t you and dad living well at home? If you want to spend some time together, I can check my schedule to see if I have any free time.”
“No need,” Mother Li immediately hung up the phone angrily.
Xing Lan had just signed a contract and she already gave them $1 million. In contrast, Li Can wouldn’t even let them stay at her place for a few days. They must have been blind in the past.
“Old man, I think Xin Er is genuinely a good daughter. This money is enough for us to place a deposit on another house. Plus, her management agency seems to be quite rich. On the other hand, didn’t Can Er say that her agency is still owing her money?”
“Hmmph!” Father Whitaker snorted. “We supported that conniving fox for nothing. I bet she’s deliberately keeping her income a secret from us.”
“What should we do now? It looks like Can Er wants to prevent her sister from advancing in the competition and wants to use us as cannon fodder.”
“In that case, we will just let Miss Long clarify what happened three years ago and let Xin Er win first place. After all, she is more filial and more promising.”
“OK, it’s decided then.”
Like this, the two elders ended up changing sides.
Lisa had given them enough benefits and these two were easy to deal with because they were blinded by their own interests.
Afterwards, Lin Qian received a message from Lisa, “They’ve been dealt with. Don’t worry, these two may even help Xing Lan in the long term. It’s perfect.”
Lin Qian showed Lisa’s message to Xing Lan, “Feel better? Your parents are now on your side.”
“How did Emma do it?” Xing Lan was surprised; her parents were greedy and shameless.
“A mastermind will naturally have a plan.”
Li Can waited and waited, but she didn’t hear anything from her parents about Xing Lan. As a result, she curiously dissected the situation with her manager, “According to the damaging power of my parents, destroying Xing Lan should be a piece of cake. Why haven’t they made a move yet?”
“Call them and check.”
“My mother called about staying with me for a few days and I brushed her off.”
“You currently need their help. Can’t you just appease them for a while?” her manager was a little surprised. “Is there something wrong with your brain?”
“I know what I should do, but it’s embarrassing if someone captures photos of us living together,” Li Can replied. “I don’t care, I’m giving them a call to see what’s going on.”
After speaking, Li Can pulled out her phone. But this time, she ended up calling her father instead of her mother, “Dad…how’s the matter with sis going?”
“Your mother and I are trying to think of a plan,” Father Whitaker lied. “We’re just average people. It’s not easy to get close to Li Xin.”
“Dad, don’t blame me for being ruthless towards Li Xin. If her past gets revealed, our entire family will be implicated,” Li Can deliberately manipulated her father by triggering his pride.
“We understand,” Father Whitaker said before he hung up. But, he was so angry that he almost smashed the phone on the floor. “This animal only knows how to check if we’ve ruined her sister yet. What a heartless wench.”
“Old man, what should we do now?” Mother Li asked.
“Give Miss Long a phone call.”
Li Can was now an eyesore for Father Whitaker.
The child that they previously considered as promising, was suddenly a cruel, scheming wench that plotted against her own family.
So, Father Whitaker called Lisa and asked her what to do next.
Lisa could tell that the elders had taken her bait. So, she decided to increase their misunderstanding, “Uncle, just wait. Li Can is actually the daughter that will end up embarrassing you. In order to oppose her sister and prevent her from winning the competition, she is going to personally expose the past. Just wait and see.”
“She wouldn’t dare!”
“If she does decide to do it, then uncle should pretend to help her and we will take the opportunity to clear Xing Lan’s name. If she is to win the competition, she can’t have any black marks against her.”
After Father Whitaker received Lisa’s instructions, he nodded his head.
If Li Can dared to make a move, he was going to throw everything out there. He was going to disown this daughter and help Li Xin instead.
In the end, as expected, Li Can could not be restrained.
