Early the next day.
Sunlight shone in through the window and shone on Yu Xiaolan's face. Yu Xiaolan frowned and immediately lost her sleepiness.
Stretching and yawning, Yu Xiaolan slowly opened her eyes to get used to the glaring sunlight.
When she took out her phone from under her pillow to check the time, she suddenly remembered that her phone had been broken yesterday.
Phew. She had no choice but to crawl out of her warm blanket. She looked at the clock outside the room. The needle pointed to 9:10.
" Ah!!!!" After screaming for a full minute, the needle pointed to 9:11.
" I'm late, I'm late!!" Yu Xiaolan quickly ran to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face. She would never sleep late usually. What was wrong with her today? Is your biological clock tired?
After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Yu Xiaolan hurriedly put on her bag and prepared to leave. In the end, she met an auntie. The auntie looked at her in confusion."Lan, did you find another job?”
Yu Xiaolan was stunned and stopped in her tracks.""Auntie, w-what do you mean?”
The auntie looked at her strangely." It's Saturday today. If you're not looking for a new job, where are you going in a hurry?"”
"Ah?" "It's Saturday today?" Yu Xiaolan exclaimed in surprise.”Yu Xiaolan heaved a sigh of relief. After bidding farewell to the auntie, she returned to the house. The auntie called out to her,""Lan, yesterday, did you help me with the thing I asked you to do yesterday?”
Hearing the auntie's words, Yu Xiaolan patted her head and recalled Leng Yan's reply last night. Was three million enough?
Did he mean that three million yuan was a piece of cake for him?
Yu Xiaolan burst into laughter. She knew it. There was no such thing as a 'what if'. So, she found the check from under the table, filled in 3000000, and handed it to the auntie.
"Auntie, this money is enough for you to pay off your debts.”
The auntie's eyes lit up as she gripped the check tightly."Oh my god, Xiao Lan, I owe you too much.”
Yu Xiaolan scratched the back of her head in embarrassment and smiled innocently.""Hehehe, Auntie, don't say that. I've always treated you like family. Moreover, this check was given to a stranger.”
"Boyfriend, right?" The auntie smiled mischievously. If there was a chance, he would bring her over to introduce her to him.”
Yu Xiaolan's face was filled with embarrassment when she heard what she said.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Aunty, aunty wants to go out for a while. I'll be back soon." The auntie seemed to have remembered the importance of the check and held it tightly.
"Oh, okay. Auntie, hurry up and pay the bill." The silly Yu Xiaolan even sent Auntie away.
"Young Master, your account lost three million yuan today.”The uncle stood in front of Leng Yan and reported.
"Take a few brothers with you to see if she's here and bring her back."”
" But…" The uncle hesitated." I don't think Miss Xiaolan wants to come. What if she doesn't come?”The middle-aged man did not seem to know the seriousness of the matter.
"Turn." Leng Yan finished speaking without any tone and turned around to look at the big window.
"Yes, Young Master."
A long time passed.
Yu Xiaolan kept hearing the sound of people moving things in the house.
She wondered,'Other than the auntie, she's the only resident nearby. Could it be that she's a new resident?'
Hence, the enthusiastic Yu Xiaolan was so happy that she wanted to welcome the new tenant.
In the end, she saw dozens of people working together to move things out of the auntie's house. Yu Xiaolan, who had no idea what was going on, watched the unexpected scenes unfold. The auntie was nowhere to be seen, and everything in the house was turned upside down.
A bad thought surfaced in her mind. Curious, Yu Xiaolan stopped a person who was moving things.
"Excuse me, where's the auntie who lives inside?”
The young man looked at Yu Xiaolan carefully. With a fierce expression, he shouted," You're her neighbor?"
"Ah?" Yu Xiaolan was obviously frightened by him. She was slightly taken aback."Yes, yes. What's wrong?"
After the young man received his affirmation, he threw down the things in his hands and picked Yu Xiaolan up as if he was carrying a rabbit.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Let go of me!”Yu Xiaolan shouted. The young man ignored her and threw her to the ground when he saw that there were many people around.
"What are you doing? I don't know you!”
The old man sitting in the innermost seat frowned and looked at the young man. The young man explained,"Brother, she's that b * tch's neighbor!”
Sir System raised his eyebrows and smiled brightly."You're finally out. Hurry up and pay up.”He extended his fingers and pointed them at Yu Xiaolan.
"What money?"
"That b * tch owes me three million. Now that she's packed up and left, how are we going to settle this debt?”
Yu Xiaolan finally understood why the auntie didn't pay back the three million yuan she had taken away.
"That, that's because she owes you money. Why should I pay her back? You should go find her!" Even though Yu Xiaolan was silly sometimes, she would still defend herself at critical moments.
First Master spat, seemingly dissatisfied with Yu Xiaolan's attitude. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to her."It's written in black and white here that the neighbor, Yu Xiaolan, has to pay it back.”
When Yu Xiaolan reached out to take the paper, Sir System quickly took it away.
"No money. I gave all my money to her.”Yu Xiaolan did not expect her auntie to be such a person. She was so angry that her face turned red and her voice was much louder than usual.
Looking at their lineup, it was a group of yellow-haired brats dressed in fancy clothes. Compared to the people in black leather suits sent by Leng Yan yesterday, this group of people could be considered friendly.
"Men, tie her up! He could sell her for a good price!”
Yu Xiaolan watched as the leader's voice faded away and a few people approached her. She retreated slowly in fear.
"Don't forget that Hong Kong is a city with laws!”Before she died, Yu Xiaolan shouted at them and quickly ran in the other direction. However, she was blocked by the people in front of her.
"Damn, you have such a sharp tongue." A person in front of her cursed and slapped her, causing her to fall to the ground.
Yu Xiaolan covered her face that had been slapped. It was so painful that tears were streaming down her face.
"Why the f * ck are you crying?”The leader roared fiercely and slapped Yu Xiaolan's ear again.
The force was so strong that Yu Xiaolan's mouth started to bleed.
Suddenly, a rough voice sounded,""What are you guys doing!"
Everyone looked at the source of the sound. Uncle? Uncle?
"Save my uncle!" Yu Xiaolan cried out for help, but the man next to her punched her back and she fell unconscious.
"Miss Xiao Lan!" The middle-aged man roared and pulled out a pistol from behind him. He fired a shot at the top of the man's head.
Seeing this, the man was so afraid that he quickly knelt down and begged for mercy."Sir, Sir, please show mercy. I won't dare to do so."
The kindness in the uncle's eyes had disappeared and was replaced by a terrifying killing intent."Why did you hit her?"
"Yes, it's because her neighbor owes us three million yuan. She ran away and asked her to pay it back." Sir System replied fearfully.”Sir System paused. Sir, please show mercy."
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes sharply and gently pulled down the handle of the gun…
"Uncle…let them go." A hoarse voice was heard. The uncle looked at the source of the voice. Yu Xiaolan gradually regained consciousness and sat up with difficulty. There was still a bruise on the corner of her mouth.
"Miss Xiao Lan!" The uncle quickly helped her up.
However, she still said,"Let them go. They're just trying to eat."”
The middle-aged man looked at Yu Xiaolan meaningfully, then pulled a long face and shouted at the man,""Still not getting lost?"
The man was extremely grateful." Thank you, Grandaunt. Thank you, Grandpa."”
Then, the uncle gave a look to a few people in black leather suits standing at the door, and they followed him out.
Yu Xiaolan smiled at the middle-aged man and said,""Thank you for saving me."
The uncle regained his friendly appearance and smiled at her."Young Master asked us to look for you.”
Leng Yan?
Phew ~ There was really a lot of him.
"Miss Lan, are you alright?" The uncle asked as he looked at the scars on her face.
She gently touched the corner of her mouth and could not help but let out a painful cry."It's alright. He had only been slapped twice and punched once. I won't die."
"Oh, right. Why did Leng Yan ask you to come and find me?"
"Young Master wants you to go to his place."”
Yu Xiaolan remembered that she had broken her phone the day before. She hadn't had the chance to apologize to Leng Yan. If he hadn't called Uncle over, she would have been dead by now. He was grateful and nodded at the uncle.
"Then wait for me for a while. I'll go get something.”
Yu Xiaolan stood up after she finished speaking. She felt a sharp pain at the corner of her mouth.
She returned to the house and locked the uncle outside the room. Yu Xiaolan stood in front of the mirror and looked at him for a long time.
It hurt. To be honest, there was an obvious handprint on his face and a bruise on the corner of his mouth. Yu Xiaolan looked at her messy hair in the mirror. The mirror in front of her eyes was starting to fog up, making it a little blurry. Yu Xiaolan reached out to wipe it away, but she could not stop her tears.
No matter what, Yu Xiaolan was not a strong girl. After being slapped twice and punched once, any girl would cry. She just did not want her vulnerability to be exposed in front of others, so she cried secretly.
"Miss Lan?" The uncle knocked on the door.
Xiao Lan suddenly remembered that she had locked Uncle outside for a long time. So she replied in a panic,"Ah, I'm here." I'm looking for something. Please wait a little longer."
Yu Xiaolan tidied up her messy hair and rubbed her eyes. She took out Leng Yan's broken phone from under her pillow and opened the door.
The uncle saw her red eyes and said in surprise,"Miss Lan, are you crying?"
Yu Xiaolan quickly covered her eyes with the back of her hand and said,""No, it's just sand in my eyes. Let's go.”
Yu Xiaolan regretted her words. Where did the sand come from? Fortunately, the uncle didn't ask much.
Yu Xiaolan walked in front of the uncle. As she walked, Yu Xiaolan suddenly turned around and said,""Uncle, do you have a mask?"
"Mask?" The middle-aged man was stunned at first. When he saw the scar on her face, he asked,"There's some in the car."
Yu Xiaolan was relieved after hearing that. "Uncle, you mustn't tell anyone about what happened today."”
"Oh?" "Why?" The uncle was puzzled.
Yu Xiaolan smiled brightly." There's no reason. Just promise me you won't say anything."”
"I'm sorry." The uncle's words stunned Yu Xiaolan.""I can't promise you that. If Young Master asks, I'll tell you everything.”
Yu Xiaolan fell silent.
In the car, Yu Xiaolan put on her mask and asked the uncle several times nervously,""Uncle, look. If my eyes weren't so red, you wouldn't be able to tell that I was beaten, right?”
"No, it won't." The uncle chuckled.”
"Leng Yan won't find out," Yu Xiaolan comforted herself.”
His voice was very soft, but the uncle still heard it."You can't hide it from Young Master.”
"Hmm?" "Why?" Yu Xiaolan was curious. Was it because Leng Yan was very observant?”
"No, it's just that Young Master's observation skills are very strong.”The car stopped in front of a villa.
" Insight…" Yu Xiaolan was stunned for three seconds before she noticed the villa in front of her.
The middle-aged man took a call and walked away to answer it, ignoring Yu Xiaolan.
A European-style villa entered Yu Xiaolan's sight. Upon closer inspection, it was made of overlapping wooden planks. The roof was pointed, and the crimson roof tiles were particularly eye-catching under the sunlight. It had a romantic and solemn temperament. The tall foyer and grand door, the round arched windows, and the stone walls at the corners made it look elegant and luxurious. Yu Xiaolan could not help but walk toward the small red wooden door of the courtyard that was made of vines. She saw the combination of a water platform, a swimming pool, and a corridor.
"So beautiful."
Yu Xiaolan sighed in admiration and whispered,""So Leng Yan's family is really that rich. I was worried that he would go bankrupt if I took away three million from him. " Sigh…" He sighed again. Everything here could not have been possible even if Yu Xiaolan had cultivated for three lifetimes.
Suddenly, she saw a person sitting leisurely on a wooden chair made of cream-colored rattan baskets. The sun was blazing, and he sat there without opening the parasol.
For some reason, Yu Xiaolan suddenly felt pity for him.
Pity, pity. What was there to pity?
He lowered his head. Yu Xiaolan first saw his smooth forehead and his beautiful maroon hair.
Was Yu Xiaolan pitying his smooth skin because it was under the scorching sun?
Yu Xiaolan looked around and walked towards the red leaf tree. She plucked a leaf gently. She did not know what courage she had to walk towards that person.
Zuo Sichen happened to pass by and saw a strange woman wearing a mask picking Hua Yehuan's favorite red leaves. He wanted to stop her, but he saw her walking forward.
The scorching sun above the man who was reading a book was suddenly blocked, and the light and shadow on the book showed a leaf.
He raised his head and saw Yu Xiaolan, who had taken pity on his skin. He then noticed that she was holding a red leaf that had shielded him from the sun. He frowned slightly.
"Hmm?" He smiled at the stranger wearing a mask.
Yu Xiaolan realized that her actions were a little silly. She quickly took Hong Ye away awkwardly and said,""Uh, uh, I'm sorry. Am I disturbing you? I'm sorry, I'm just curious. Why didn't you use a parasol under the sun?”
His eyes were filled with a gentle smile.”
Yu Xiaolan finally got a good look at his face. Wow, it was also a handsome guy. His looks couldn't be compared to Leng Yan and the handsome guy with the gun that day. So he was a handsome guy who liked to smile and enjoy the sun?
Yu Xiaolan felt even more awkward. She put away the red leaves and smiled awkwardly."Then, then I'm doing something unnecessary. Hehe, I won't disturb you anymore. I, I'm leaving."
Yu Xiaolan turned to leave after she finished speaking. However, she saw a handsome man with a gun standing not far away from her in casual clothes and a pair of sunglasses.
She stopped in her tracks and heard the sound of a handsome man standing up and knocking against a wooden chair.
Afraid. Yes, she was afraid. He was the one who almost killed him last time. Wasn't he afraid?
"Are you here for Yan?" "I'll take you there," said the gentle and handsome man behind her.”
So, he brushed past Yu Xiaolan's shoulder and walked in front of her.
Yu Xiaolan felt that his words were a little ambiguous, so she quickly caught up with him and explained,""It was Leng Yan who wanted to find me, not me.”
As soon as she finished speaking, he stopped and stood in front of the handsome man with the gun.
At this moment, the uncle walked over in a panic. When he saw Yu Xiaolan, he heaved a sigh of relief.""Miss Lan, you scared me to death. I almost couldn't find you." After saying that, she saw two handsome men standing in front of her. She immediately called out respectfully,"Young Master Chen, Young Master Hua."
Who was Young Master Chen and who was Young Master Hua? Yu Xiaolan guessed in her heart,'Can I think that way?' The handsome man with a gun stood in front, so he called him first. So if he was Young Master Chen, then the other one was Young Master Hua?
Forgive Yu Xiaolan's ignorance, even though she was right.
