Chapter 1731 Crisis on the horizon

Lan Chen's intention was for Lan Yanxi to personally go and get it. Unfortunately, Lan Yanxi hadn't been wanting to walk around and return to the Lan Family s, so she didn't want to go either. Without her grandfather's Lan Family, it had no meaning to her anymore."I haven't been feeling too well recently. I don't want to go back, so I'll send someone to get it." Lan Yanxi said lightly.

Hearing this, Lan Chen was unwilling to let it go and immediately mocked: "I had thought that you had done a lot of favors for the old man, but it turns out that after he passed away, you didn't want to return to Lan Family anymore, and you still have the face to say that you are his granddaughter with a kinship that's even weaker than water?"

"Third Uncle, you haven't been so nosy before. What's going on?" "Did you get stimulated by something?" Lan Yanxi replied with a sneer.

"Lan Yanxi, I won't clean up these things for you. If you want to take them away, do it yourself. Otherwise, I'll burn them all." Lan Chen said angrily and hung up.

Lan Yanxi's hand that was holding the spoon went stiff. She looked at the phone that was hung up and picked it up grumpily before walking upstairs.

Actually, going back to Lan Family was fine, but she would only go to her grandfather's house. That place was where she grew up after all, and she was still very nostalgic.

Lan Yanxi went upstairs and changed into a loose skirt. As she was going downstairs, she suddenly thought of something and quickly called Ling Mofeng.

The call was answered by Chu Lie. He said that Ling Mofeng was having a very important meeting and might not be able to come out anytime soon.

Only then did Lan Yanxi realize that there was a very important foreign guest coming to visit today. Ling Mofeng might not even have a day.

"Alright then. Tell him that I'll go back to my grandpa's house to get something and he'll be back soon." After Lan Yanxi finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Outside, four bodyguards were waiting for her orders.

Lan Yanxi only said that she wanted to go out and ask them to follow her.

The scenery outside the window was becoming more and more familiar. Lan Yanxi lamented in her heart, how many times would she have to come here from now on?

Upon arriving at Lan Family, Lan Yanxi noticed that her grandfather's courtyard had become old, and the garden in front of the gate was no longer as lively as it was in the evening.

The desolate scene made Lan Yanxi's heart ache. She had the urge to take care of everything here, just like her grandfather was still alive.

However, this villa no longer belonged to her. It had already become the property of her two uncles. Even if she wanted to take care of this garden, she had no power to do so.

The four bodyguards followed behind her one after the other, looking around vigilantly.

Lan Yanxi walked through the garden familiarly and then into the living room. The furnishings in the living room remained the same, and there was a layer of dust on the tables and chairs on the sofa. Lan Yanxi thought Lan Chen would be in the living room, but it seemed that there were not many people left in his grandfather's house.

She knew that some of her grandfather's belongings were stored in the storage room on the third floor. Before this, she had come over to collect some things, but her two uncles and aunts coldly looked at her from the side, afraid that she would take something valuable. Lan Yanxi then took some things that could make her remember her grandfather and left.

Now that he came back, things had changed and his state of mind had changed. It was truly a sorrowful matter.

"You guys can guard the entrance to the second floor. I'll go up and take a look." Lan Yanxi said to her bodyguard brother.

"Okay, Miss Lan, you have to be careful." The big brother bodyguard was still very worried about her.

However, this was Lan Yanxi's former home, so there shouldn't be any more dangers.

Lan Yanxi went up to the third floor by herself and pushed open the door to the storage room. Lan Yanxi had just entered when she felt a cold flash of light and her mind went blank. The next second, a cold voice warned her, "Don't shout, otherwise, you'll lose your life right now."

This voice belonged to her third uncle.

Lan Yanxi hadn't expected her third uncle to be hiding in the storage room on the third floor, waiting for her in this ma

er.

"What do you want?" Lan Yanxi instantly calmed down. She turned her head and looked at Third Uncle with grief in her eyes. "You want to kill me?"

"If you don't talk to me, I might kill you." At this time, Lan Chen no longer had any choice. He could only choose to be ruthless to Lan Yanxi.

"Third Uncle, you aren't that kind of person. Did the Second Uncle say something to you?" Lan Yanxi was no longer the little girl who had never experienced any hardships. During the time she had been in love with Ling Mofeng, she had become calmer after experiencing several life and death situations.

"Stop trying to sow discord here. Lan Yanxi, don't blame me for not remembering family relationships. I already have no way to show mercy to a scheming girl like you." Lan Chen lowered his voice and said. He knew that Lan Yanxi brought her bodyguard here, so he was also a bit scared.

"If you really want my life, then why didn't Second Uncle come? "Third Uncle, you've been tricked." Lan Yanxi smiled. Her confident and relaxed appearance made Lan Chen think of Ling Mofeng all of a sudden. Why did he think of that terrifying man when Lan Yanxi's smile was so indifferent?

Did Lan Yanxi catch some of his habits when they were married?

"Stop with your nonsense, your Second Uncle will be coming over very soon, we need to have a good talk. Now, sit on that chair and go." Lan Chen followed the plan.

Third Uncle, in truth, I have never really hated you, I hate the Second Uncle. So, if you want to discuss the matter of the stocks with me, I can help you, but since you have always been pressured by the Second Uncle, in the company, you have no right to speak, but in truth, the Second Uncle is different, as to how much money he has already taken from the company, he definitely won't tell us. "

Seeing that Lan Yanxi was not afraid at all and was even able to talk to him about such things, Lan Chen was a little dazed.

"Before Grandpa died, he told me alone that he was very guilty and didn't treat the two of you fairly. As for you, grandfather had always been full of guilt towards you, so he specifically told me to compensate you if I had the chance." Lan Yanxi closed the book and turned around to look at the absent-minded Lan Chen. She then continued to walk towards the bookshelf with her hands behind her back. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ɴøᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Lan Chen was stu

ed. He immediately pointed the knife at her back and strongly begged, "Hurry and sit down. Don't let me say it a second time."

Lan Yanxi turned around, shook her head and sighed. "Third Uncle, are you sure you want to do this?"

Lan Chen was already indecisive to begin with. When he saw Lan Yanxi's shocked eyes, his voice sounded hesitatingly, "I have no choice. Even if I had a way, I wouldn't choose this path. Lan Yanxi, you forced us to do this."

At this moment, the big boss bodyguard downstairs noticed that something was wrong. They heard a man's voice on the third floor, so they immediately ran upstairs.

There was a sudden knock on the door that scared Lan Chen out of his wits. Instinctively, he went behind Lan Yanxi and pressed a knife to her back, coldly requesting, "Tell them to scram, don't come in."

Actually, Lan Yanxi was also afraid. She was really scared, she was just pretending to be calm and collected just now.

Just then, the door was kicked open by the bodyguard. They didn't know what was going on inside and were extremely worried.

As soon as the door opened, they saw that Lan Yanxi was being held back by Lan Chen. They were shocked and immediately reacted.

Lan Chen was so scared that his scalp went numb when he saw the few black holes facing him and the sound of the head pulling on the board.

"Lan Yanxi, I didn't mean anything by that. I just wanted to talk to you. Tell them to leave as soon as possible. I promise I won't hurt you." Lan Chen was so scared that his voice was trembling. It's clear that he doesn't have the courage to hurt others.

Lan Yanxi immediately said to the bodyguards, "You guys wait outside. I believe that my Third Uncle is rational. He just wants to talk with me."

The bodyguards retreated step by step because they saw Lan Yanxi's determined expression. They knew she might have a way to deal with it. If they continued to fight like this, Lan Chen would probably do more damage to his heart due to his weak endurance.

Lan Yanxi sat on the seat. Lan Chen immediately threatened her with a knife and tied her arms and hands with a rope.

"Third Uncle, we can indeed have a chat when the Second Uncle comes." Lan Yanxi said calmly.

"He'll be here soon." Lan Chen immediately said.
