Five years have passed quietly.
Fu Bai's brand has been exported overseas, and he has become one of the world's top fashion designers.
Xie Chen, after returning to the swimming world, forged ahead relentlessly, winning every battle. He was either breaking world records or on his way to breaking world records, becoming a legend in the swimming world.
Fu Bai could be seen at every one of Xie Chen's matches.
Every time Xie Chen won a gold medal and a bouquet of flowers, he would always deliver them to Fu Bai immediately.
At first, some people were not optimistic about their relationship.
But as time went by, the two remained as sweet and loving as ever, and gradually Fu Bai and Xie Chen became an internationally recognized couple.
Five years later, today is also the day Chen Lan is released from prison.
After he came out, he learned that the company he had worked so hard for had long since gone bankrupt, and he was so angry that he almost fainted.
Chen Lan stood on the bustling street, watching the large screen in the center of the square playing a Paris Fashion Week runway show.
As a top international designer, Fu Bai has his own exclusive runway show, and the fashion show currently being shown on the central screen is Fu Bai's fashion show.
After the curtain call, the audience erupted in applause.
When Chen Lan saw Xie Chen bring a bouquet of flowers to the stage and give it to Fu Bai, the two kissed without restraint in front of the world's media cameras.
When the camera panned across the audience, Chen Lan saw Zheng Siyu looking dejected.
He stared blankly at Fu Bai on the catwalk. The distance between them was only five meters, but it felt like an insurmountable chasm.
Like Chen Lan, some passersby were looking at the central screen, and their discussions naturally reached Chen Lan's ears.
"Ahhh, my favorite couple is the sweetest in the world!!"
"My ultimate dream in life is to own a piece of clothing designed by Fu Bai himself. His aesthetic sense is so sophisticated that every piece of clothing is etched into my heart."
...
As Chen Lan listened to the discussions of the crowd around him, he felt the fire deep inside him growing stronger and stronger, as if it were about to set him on fire.
His eyes were bloodshot, his hands were clenched into fists, and his veins were bulging.
Everything Fu Bai owns now belongs to him!! Fu Bai stole his things!!
Hatred blinded Chen Lan's eyes and reason, and he was already plotting how to get rid of Fu Bai.
But don't rush. Go home and act good to win his forgiveness first. Only then will he have a chance to get close to Fu Bai.
Chen Lan narrowed her eyes, forcing herself to calm down.
He hailed a taxi and gave them the Chen family's address.
An hour later, the taxi was stopped by security guards outside the residential area. The guards did not recognize Chen Lan and barred him from entering the villa complex on the grounds that he was not a resident of the complex.
Chen Lan didn't make a scene. Instead, she squatted not far from the entrance of the residential area, waiting for Xie Ru or Chen Shengqi to return in a pitiful manner.
Seeing his current state, they might soften their hearts and let him in.
However, Chen Lan waited until evening but Xie Ru and Chen Shengqi did not show up.
Night fell.
Chen Lan's legs were already numb from squatting.
He frowned, thinking that he wouldn't be able to wait for Xie Ru and her husband tonight.
Just as I was about to get up, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my ankle.
He looked down and his pupils suddenly contracted.
A banded krait was biting his ankle.
"Get out!"
Chen Lan was terrified. In desperation, she reached out to grab the silver-ringed snake, but only managed to grab it in the middle. The snake turned its head and bit Chen Lan hard in the tiger's mouth.
Chen Lan felt her vision blurring.
He vaguely saw a person appear in front of him.
"Chen Lan, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
It's Jiang Qi.
Chen Lan then realized that Jiang Qi had released the silver-ringed snake, and asked in confusion, "Why?"
"Why?" Jiang Qi sneered, her expression somewhat manic. "You still dare to ask me why? Why did I release the snake to bite Shen Fubai in the first place? Wasn't it because you hypnotized me into doing it? You wanted to kill Fubai, but you didn't want to dirty your own hands, so you pushed me out to be the knife."
"Now I'm just giving back to you everything you did back then."
The commotion attracted the attention of the security guards. When Jiang Qi saw that Chen Lan was about to scream for help, she covered Chen Lan's mouth and led her to a dark corner.
"Chen Lan, you ruined me, don't blame me for taking action against you."
Jiang Qi only learned after being released from prison that Shu Changchang was not the daughter of an ordinary family, but the daughter of the chairman of Shengshi Group, a genuine third-generation rich heiress, even richer than Zheng Siyu.
Moreover, Shu Changchang's family does not object to her marrying a woman. I heard that Shu Changchang has found a new girlfriend and they are in a very good relationship.
These all belonged to her!
If she hadn't been hypnotized by Chen Lan, she definitely would have had a chance to win Shu Changchang back.
But once she entered prison, her reputation was tarnished, and Shu Changchang was completely disappointed and heartbroken by her, refusing to see her even once.
It's fair to say that Chen Lan ruined her life.
Since she's having a hard time, then Chen Lan shouldn't expect to have one either.
So she specifically chose a relatively plump banded krait and starved it for a few days so that it could release venom when it bites.
Jiang Qi could now clearly feel the poisoning symptoms emanating from Chen Lan.
"Chen Lan, do you regret it?" Jiang Qi asked sarcastically, close to Chen Lan's ear. "You took advantage of people's goodwill towards you, shamelessly hypnotizing them into doing things for you, and now you're getting the consequences. Do you regret it?"
Do you regret it?
Chen Lan's consciousness gradually blurred until he completely lost consciousness, and he still couldn't figure out the answer to this question.
