" But..." Yu Xiaolan was about to speak. In the blink of an eye, the people standing in the corridor disappeared…
Her parents 'and her brother's spirit tablets needed 30000 yuan to be redeemed. Yu Xiaolan held the empty check tightly and did not say anything else.
In the car.
"How is she?" Leng Yan sat inside. Although there were still some bruises on the corner of his mouth and his forehead was bandaged, his natural aura of a king could not be concealed. He had already come when he received a call saying that Yu Xiaolan was not going to see him.
"Reporting to Young Master, after Miss Xiaolan received the unlimited check and the phone, she did not refuse.”
Hearing the butler's words, a trace of disappointment flashed across Leng Yan's amber eyes.
After the butler left, the car fell into silence again.
There were also two other handsome men in the car.
"You're still as greedy as other women.”The handsome man with the silver pistol yesterday said.
Leng Yan didn't say anything.
"Yan, is she the person you've been looking for?”Another man said, a hint of melancholy flashing across his eyes.
When Leng Yan heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched as he handed a stack of documents to the two of them.
Soon, the man with the gun, Zuo Sichen, asked,""You think this Yu Xiaolan is the King of Hell's wife, Xia Xilan, who has just disappeared?”
Leng Yan said expressionlessly," Pay attention to the time when Xia Xilan went missing, and then look at the time when Yu Xiaolan came to Hong Kong."”
Another equally handsome man, Yi Yehuan, said,""The day Xia Xilan disappeared was the same day Yu Xiaolan came to Hong Kong?”
"That doesn't prove anything." "And before that day, Yu Xiaolan's identity was unknown," said Leng Yan coldly.”
Yi Yehuan's lips curled into a beautiful smile.""The point is, she looks very similar to Xia Xilan.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes met Zuo Sichen's.
"However, it's not like that anymore." Leng Yan said coldly and stepped on the accelerator. His eyes were infinitely cold.
Yu Xiaolan knelt on the ground and used a pencil to fill in the amount on the check.
"Forget it. He could earn the money for the spirit tablet himself. There was no reason to use so much money for Leng Yan, right?”
At the thought of this, Yu Xiaolan heaved a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to tear the check up, there was a series of rapid knocks on the door.
Yu Xiaolan furrowed her brows. She placed the check under the table and quickly ran to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door, the auntie next door pounced on her."Xiao Lan, you have to save me."
Yu Xiaolan was slightly shocked and quickly asked,""Auntie? What's wrong? What happened?"
"My damn husband gambles every day. Now that I owe someone a few million, what should I do? If those people come knocking on my door, I won't be able to stop them.”
As the auntie spoke, she kept hiding in Yu Xiaolan's direction.
"Uncle, where's uncle?" Yu Xiaolan was also a little scared, and she couldn't help but stutter.
"Your heartless uncle is nowhere to be seen. I think he's probably running away.”
"But…Auntie, do you mean you want me to protect you?”Yu Xiaolan was stunned for a moment. She pondered over the auntie's words and came to her senses.
The auntie was stunned for a minute before patting Yu Xiaolan's head.""Aiyo. What I mean is, do you have a few hundred or a thousand dollars for me to go back to my hometown to hide?”
The auntie looked around as if she was looking for something.
"Ah, I'm not sure. "I don't have that much money," Yu Xiaolan said helplessly.
The auntie looked at her suspiciously and said,"But, I'm not sure. I, I saw a group of men in black surrounding you today. Then, she heard one of them say that he had given her a check.”
When Yu Xiaolan heard this, she suddenly remembered,""Ah, right. I almost forgot. That's right, that's right. Then, how much money does Auntie and Uncle owe others?”
The auntie awkwardly extended three fingers. Yu Xiaolan was speechless. Uncle, aren't you too good at gambling? Three million, you're planning to bet yourself on it, right? If he really wrote three million on that check, would Leng Yan go bankrupt? She, Yu Xiaolan, would still think about others when it came to important matters.
So, she looked at the auntie. Usually, when there was no one at home, the auntie would help clean up. When she wasn't cooking, she would often go to her auntie's house to freeload. The auntie treated her like family. Now that she was in trouble, could he just stand by and watch? Was that the warm-hearted Yu Xiaolan?
"Auntie. Don't worry, I'll help you. Go back to your room and lock the door. If those people really came to ask for revenge, he had to call the police.”Yu Xiaolan patted her chest and promised.
The auntie nodded and left.
Yu Xiaolan struggled for a long time. What should she do? The only way now was to get that check. But, but…
But what if Leng Yan's assets were only three million?
After pondering for a long time, Yu Xiaolan remembered her phone. Her hands trembled as she found Leng Yan's number.
Shouldn't he at least tell her first? This way, if she took the check to the bank to get the money, the staff would not tell her: "Sorry, you don't have that much money as a user.”
Was he really going to fight? Holding the phone in her hand, Yu Xiaolan hesitated for a moment.""What if he refuses to lend it to me?"
Aiyo, where did all these 'what ifs' come from? Life was more important.
He pressed the green button on his phone.
After more than 30 seconds, the ear-piercing toot sound suddenly stopped.
Three seconds later, the other party seemed to be waiting for Yu Xiaolan to speak. Yu Xiaolan suddenly realized,'Ah, Leng Yan didn't say anything when he answered the phone?
So she tried her best to keep her voice from trembling."Hello, hello? Is it Leng Yan?"
The other party did not speak.
"Leng Yan! Cough, cough, cough!" Yu Xiaolan choked on her own saliva due to her excitement.
"Who are you?" The emotionless voice on the other end made Yu Xiaolan shudder involuntarily. Was this the legendary aura of a tortoise?
"Leng Yan, I'm Yu Xiaolan. I want to ask you a question now. Send me a message after you hear it.”Because his voice was too cold. Even though Yu Xiaolan was not looking at him, she did not have the courage to say in that cold voice,""Do you have three million yuan in assets?"
Yu Xiaolan didn't even have time to hesitate after she finished speaking. She quickly closed her phone. Her heart was pounding.
How could he ask so bluntly? Yu Xiaolan patted her head in regret!
Yu Xiaolan was the stupidest person in history! She mocked herself and stared at her phone until night fell. However, there was no message or call on his phone.
ten o'clock
She had just taken a shower and was drying her hair when she noticed the light from her phone on the table.
First, it was a surprise, then it was a worry-Leng Yan had sent a message so late, could there be something he couldn't tell her?
Hence, she inched over step by step. He took the phone, swallowed his saliva, and pressed the unlock button.
"You have a new message."
The finger that was about to press the button to check kept moving closer and away. After her mind was fixed on the crying face of the auntie next door, Yu Xiaolan finally mustered up the courage to press the button to open it.
The message was very short, but Yu Xiaolan was completely stunned.
"Three million is enough?"
Suddenly, her phone vibrated and started ringing. Yu Xiaolan was lost in her thoughts when she dropped her phone on the floor in shock. She hugged the ground intimately, and the battery fell out as well.
"Ah!" Yu Xiaolan called out softly and quickly picked up her phone to put in the battery.
She pressed the power button to confirm what had just happened, but her phone could not be turned on…
"Why can't you fall?" She muttered with heartache, but she did not think about who had called just now.
" Beep, beep, beep…" No one picked up the phone. Leng Yan was slightly stunned and frowned. He took down the phone and threw it on the table. He picked up the wine glass on the table.
"What does she want three million for?" Zuo Sichen shook the glass of red wine in his hand and asked.
Leng Yan didn't answer and took a deep sip of red wine.
"Yan." Yi Yehuan smiled, his eyes narrowed like the moon.""She didn't answer your call?"
He had guessed correctly. Leng Yan only glanced at him coldly and downed the red wine in his glass. He picked up his phone and dialed Yu Xiaolan's number again.
A cold female robotic voice came from the other end of the phone."I'm sorry, the number you dialed is switched off.”
Frowning, Leng Yan closed his phone and stood up. Just as he was about to ignore the two of them and walk out. "Let's go find her tomorrow." Zuo Sichen said. It was already very late. Perhaps she was resting.”
On the other side, Leng Yan was expressionless and said coldly,"I'm going back to my room."
After saying that, Leng Yan returned to his room with his back facing the two of them.
Zuo Sichen was used to being cold, so he shrugged.
Yi Yehuan couldn't help but snicker.
"F * ck, are you laughing at me?" Zuo Sichen rolled his eyes at him.”
Yi Yehuan only smiled gently and looked at him.""Thank you for the compliment."
Zuo Sichen suddenly had goosebumps all over his body.""Be a f * cking man. Look at me so lovingly. Be careful that I don't sleep with you tonight!”
Yi Yehuan smiled faintly and sat beside Zuo Sichen. He nudged him gently,""You won't dislike me, right? I'm still a virgin."
The former gave him a look and gently pinched his chin before shaking it off."Little brat, I won't sleep with you even if you beg me. I'm a male."
Yi Yehuan smiled wickedly and turned serious.""Do you think that Yu Xiaolan is Xia Xilan?”
Zuo Sichen stopped smiling when he heard that. " I feel that the first impression Yu Xiaolan gave me that day was not that of Xia Xilan. Xia Xilan does look very similar to her, but Xia Xilan gave off a wild feeling while Yu Xiaolan gave off a weak look. The first day I saw my gun, I was scared out of my wits. Or…did the King of Hell send her to test us?”
"Then tell me, did you charm her the first time you saw her?”His tone was a little flirtatious, but Yi Yehuan still asked seriously.
"Charm?" Zuo Sichen thought seriously,"I'm not enchanted." However…" He looked at the empty door."Someone seems to be interested in her.”
She understood what he meant. Yi Yehuan was very sure,"I just want to kill the King of Hell as soon as possible."”
Zuo Sichen drank the rest of the red wine in his glass, stood up, and answered as he walked,"I hope so."
