Rebirth: I Am Not the Movie Queen This Time-Chapter 135: Insidious
Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Insidious
On Tuesday, Jiang Kechu’s desk was adorned with a document bag, containing all matters between Li Gang and Wan Chu’er, as well as an investigation of Li Gang’s family situation.
When he took out the materials to read, his face grew darker the more he looked.
Slamming the table at last, he thought, this scum even dares to covet Chuchu!
Fortunately, the girl Wan Chu’er had the resolve and was not seduced by Li Gang’s trivial offerings. Recalling the way the girl haughtily sized people up, he couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile.
He truly felt proud of the girl, steady and striving for self-improvement.
The more he thought about it, the more he appreciated Wan Chu’er, telling himself he needed to secure her soon to spare her from scum like Li Gang, Wang Gang, and Ma Gang that would show up from time to time.
He couldn’t quell the anger in his heart without teaching this Li Gang a lesson for what he had done.
After some consideration, he made a few calls and arranged a dinner meeting. At the same time, he continued to have Xiao Chen look into the Li Family’s business dealings.

The rumors spread for several days, yet Li Gang did not see Wan Chu’er coming to seek him out.
He intended to use this to teach Wan Chu’er a small lesson and force her to come to him so that when she did, he would take the upper hand and intimidate and lure her as he pleased.
However, despite waiting left and right, Wan Chu’er was nowhere to be seen. Hearing from Ma Tianjiao that Wan Chu’er still carried herself with superiority as if she didn’t take it to heart at all.
By Thursday, Li Gang couldn’t hold back and went to find Wan Chu’er again.
But Wan Chu’er didn’t even glance at him and was about to leave when Li Gang became infuriated and shouted, "Wan Chu’er, come here!"
Wan Chu’er’s face turned cold, she stopped, looked at him expressionlessly, and said, "I’ve said it before, stop bothering me!"
Li Gang laughed sinisterly, "I want to bother you, I’ll bother you for the rest of your life."
Faced with such a lunatic, Wan Chu’er raised her little finger, slowly turned around, and poked downwards with disdain as if she couldn’t despise him any more than she already did.
Li Gang’s expression changed immediately; he was about to react but remembered that Wan Chu’er’s skills were superior to his, so in the end, he spat viciously to the side.
Wan Chu’er made a disgusted face, he really has no class!
Just then, Mai Qiqi, who had heard the news, rushed over. Before she even arrived, she shouted, "Li Gang, what are you trying to do?"
He glanced at Mai Qiqi, looked ominously at Wan Chu’er again, and turned to walk away.
Mai Qiqi’s family held some clout, and he had some reservations about her. Plus, with An Zihao currently with Mai Qiqi, An Zihao was also someone he didn’t wish to offend lightly.
From this, it was evident that Li Gang was a man who bullied the weak and feared the strong, daring to bully Wan Chu’er, an orphan girl from out of town, at his whim.
After Li Gang left, Mai Qiqi hurriedly asked Chuchu, "Chuchu, are you alright?"
Wan Chu’er shook her head, showing nothing on her face but thinking internally that she should find a secluded place to put a sack over Li Gang’s head and beat the hell out of him, preferably leaving him half-paralyzed so he couldn’t disgust anyone for life. Nowadays, surveillance wasn’t everywhere; it was still possible if handled properly.
After Li Gang departed, feeling a brooding and irritable resentment, he headed towards the school gates, planning to go to the Royal Club for a drink.
At the school gate, I ran into Ma Tianjiao who instantly clung to me as soon as she saw me.
Seeing Ma Tianjiao, I immediately thought of Wan Chu’er and, with a nudge of intent, dragged Ma Tianjiao off to the club.
When Ma Tianjiao saw the glistening ’Royal Club’ sign, she was completely stunned. She knew Li Gang’s family was wealthy, but she hadn’t imagined they owned such a high-class place. She became even more determined to firmly catch hold of Li Gang.
Arriving at the club, Li Gang took Ma Tianjiao into a private room, and directly on the sofa there, he roughed her up.
After venting his frustrations, Li Gang ordered some drinks.
A while later, there was a knock on the door of the private room. Thinking it was the drinks being delivered, he just called out for them to come in.
Turned out Zhang Chao came in with a smile, carrying the drinks. Although Ma Tianjiao had put her clothes back on, her complexion was still flushed. Zhang Chao, an experienced player in the field of love, knew exactly what had happened at a glance.
He teasingly gave Li Gang a signal with his eyes, "Wow, Brother Gang, you’re so impressive. You’ve already got your Goddess all sorted?"
Li Gang replied, frustrated: "It’s not her."
Zhang Chao blinked and unabashedly stared at Ma Tianjiao a few times, making her quite uncomfortable. She leaned against Li Gang and called out unhappily, "Li Gang."
Li Gang ignored her and directly asked Zhang Chao, "What are you here for?"
Zhang Chao laughed: "I’m just concerned about you, came to ask if you have handled the thing you talked about last time. It looks like you haven’t. Was the thing I gave you useless?"
When Li Gang heard this, he remembered the matter and turned to look at Ma Tianjiao, saying, "Go out and have some fun first."
Upon hearing this, Ma Tianjiao’s expression changed. What did Li Gang take her for? To sleep with her whenever he wanted and to send her away when he’s done.
She protested, mixed with anger and a sense of being wronged, "Li Gang, how can you treat me this way."
Li Gang was somewhat impatient and said with a frown, "Just go out, we have things to discuss."
Seeing Li Gang’s expression, Ma Tianjiao feared she really angered him, and with gritted teeth and stomping feet, she left.
The door was not yet closed when she heard a voice inside, "Bro, is she also from your school? Does she know your beloved one?"
At this point, the door closed, and the soundproofing was excellent. Once the door was shut, even if she pressed her ear against it, she couldn’t hear a word.
She wasn’t foolish; she guessed they were probably talking about Wan Chu’er. She also knew about Li Gang going to block Wan Chu’er today.
It seemed that Li Gang still couldn’t get Wan Chu’er out of his mind. Ma Tianjiao couldn’t help but curse Wan Chu’er: "Vixen!" And recalling the incident of Wan Chu’er kicking her chair before made her even more enraged. She found a secluded place and called home.
"Mom, didn’t you say before that you were going to find someone to teach Wan Chu’er a lesson? When exactly will that be? I can’t stand Wan Chu’er anymore, please hurry up and do something!"
Over the phone, Ma Tianjiao exaggeratedly spoke about how Wan Chu’er bullied her and told her mother, "I have a boyfriend now, his family is very rich, they own a big club in Beijing and two shipyards, and that vixen Wan Chu’er keeps seducing him."
Hearing this, Mrs. Ma became anxious and consoled her daughter, "Don’t worry, I’ll have someone teach her a lesson in the next couple of days. We absolutely can’t let her ruin your plans."
Ma Tianjiao hung up the phone, satisfied, with some of her displeasure having dissipated.
Back in the private room, Li Gang asked Zhang Chao, "What was that thing you gave me the other day? I drank too much that day, I can’t remember."
