CHAPTER 855: CHAPTER 859: BORN A REBEL (9)

Su Li didn’t say anything, and over the next few days, both Su Li and Lan Chengying really just stayed in the hotel without stepping out.

Lan Chengying asked in boredom, "What are we doing staying in the hotel every day?"

Although the hotel wasn’t boring, with swimming, fitness, gourmet midnight snacks, and massages, everything was available.

The service was so considerate, and besides being expensive, there were no problems.

But this five-star hotel, apart from excellent service, also offered good security.

In the western restaurant on the top floor, you could see celebrities and high-profile individuals dining daily.

But even so, staying for several days would become tedious.

Su Li said, "I’ve already told you that you’ve got a blood disaster foretold, if you don’t lay low, are you looking to die?"

If you want to seek death, it’s not impossible, after all, Su Li did not insist on having a sidekick.

Lan Chengying was momentarily speechless, feeling frustrated and said nothing.

The constant notification sounds from his phone messages made him annoyed.

Frustrated, he opened them, and the messages in the Lan Family’s group chat were overwhelming.

Casually glancing at them, his previously lazy posture slowly straightened up, and his facial expression turned serious and grave.

—Chengying, Chengying are you there? Are you okay now?

—Chengying, are you alright?

—If you’re okay, just say something. Those people refuse to tell us your whereabouts, and the family can’t reach you; your aunt has been sent to the hospital.

Lan Chengying:.....

What’s going on?

He immediately dialed his family’s number, and the result....

The phone, which seemed normal, couldn’t make any calls.

Borrowing Su Li’s phone, the call displayed: Out of service area.

Unbeknownst to him, his phone, which was always with him, was tampered with, and he was none the wiser.

The only possible ones capable of such a thing were those close to him.

After using Su Li’s phone to call his family and assure them of his safety, he learned that the team leader of the four-person bodyguard group had been bribed by the enemy.

They wanted to kidnap him to threaten the Lan Family.

Although he was a spoiled rich kid, he was cherished by his entire family.

Strangely enough, this group of people hadn’t even started to take action, but one of the outer small lackeys ended up in the police station due to gambling, pulling out a whole bunch of criminals in the process.

It directly uncovered this premeditated and well-planned kidnapping scheme.

According to their confession, the action was supposed to take place a few days ago, but the young master of the Lan Family stayed firmly holed up in the hotel.

To avoid alerting the enemy, they didn’t dare to abduct him directly from inside the hotel, so they had to alter their plan.

But before the new plan could be executed, they all ended up in prison.

Learning that Lan Chengying was alright, the Lan Family immediately expressed that they would come to fetch him overnight.

After hanging up, Lan Chengying’s eyes shined with a mysterious light, staring straight at Su Li.

Suddenly, he kneeled down, raising his hands high, and shouted, "Thank you, Fairy Sister, for saving my life....."

Su Li said, "Idiot."

Then left the foolish Lan Chengying, gracefully walking away.

-----------

In the original owner’s memory, there were one or two impressions of the Lan Family.

In the capital, the Lan Family was considered a prominent family, but a big incident occurred a few years back.

The young master of the Lan Family was kidnapped when he left the house in a fit of pique.

The original owner didn’t know the details.

However, she heard from Cheng Xinxin that the Lan Family was frantically holding onto another family and wouldn’t let go.

It’s said that the young master of the Lan Family’s predicament was orchestrated by a rival family....

In the end, the Lan Family declined, allowing the Cheng Family, a small family, to gain a lot of advantages.

Su Li didn’t recognize Lan Chengying as the unlucky kid who was kidnapped and ransomed.

It wasn’t until a large group from the Lan Family came to fetch him that Su Li vaguely remembered.

The Lan Family was the only family who could dispatch helicopters to fly over overnight, and with the surname Lan, there was no other.

Lan Chengying’s lackey traits had made remarkable progress, leaving the surrounding Lan Family members dumbfounded.

Was this their stubborn brother/nephew who would buck at the slightest disagreement?

The little overlord, known across the capital, didn’t earn his title in vain.

At the very least, his temperament had to be sufficiently bizarre, his actions capricious and unreasonable..... so that people were helpless, wanting to get rid of him but couldn’t, left only with frustration.

But today.... it must be their eyesight acting up, making them see illusions.

They actually saw the little overlord, gingerly acting like a little eunuch, pouring tea, massaging shoulders, and carrying luggage.

The skill of reading people’s expressions and acting accordingly was polished to perfection.

At the slightest blink from the other side, he would know the tea was too hot and swiftly replace it with one at just the right temperature.

But if you said he was enamored with that girl’s face and trying to cozy up, it didn’t quite fit.

The setup was obviously one of a boss and a small lackey, an Empress Dowager with her eunuch, a Lady with her attendant....

"Hey, what’s with those looks? Don’t scare my boss."

Su Li gave him a distracted glance, then ignored him.

Lan Chengying, tagging himself as Su Li’s little brother, was delighted when he saw that Su Li didn’t object.

No longer speaking softly to his boss, he turned to the Lan Family with a gruff and exasperated tone, "Why did so many of you come? Spread out, clear off."

"All gathered here, my boss can’t even breathe fresh air."

Lan Family members: Scary, Little Lan has relapsed.

Whether the Lan Family believed Lan Chengying’s alleged life-saving benefactor story or were simply swayed by Lan Chengying’s attitude, their behavior toward Su Li was quite respectful.

Courteous and polite, everything was perfectly arranged. Even if they had some thoughts, they didn’t show it.

Very well, Su Li reluctantly opened her drowsy eyes and gave Lan Chengying an encouraging look.

It excited the young lad, stirring up waves of ambition in his heart.

In Lan Chengying’s mind, Su Li had long been seen as one of those great figures from novels, capable of deducing and calculating marvelously.

Even though this young man’s age was about the same as Su Li’s, his adolescent mind was still in a teenage state.

However, he had coincidentally guessed right; Su Li was indeed more powerful than those capable of wondrous predictions.

Originally destined for an early demise, at this time in his last life, he was already gone.

Now having a chance to change things was something he had fought for himself.

This young man possessed a trace of spiritual insight, which led him to be naturally attracted and thus drawn to Su Li.

This was something decided by fate, his spiritual intuition finding a path for him, and fortunately, he succeeded.

Having passed this life-and-death ordeal, the remaining journey of life shall be free from difficulties.
