Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1115 - 1114: Facing Death

Lin Feng put down his work, leaned back, frowned, and looked at Housekeeper Jia, "You tell me, why is Liang Lan here?"

Housekeeper Jia was also bewildered, "Young Master, I have no idea! Liang Lan’s appearance is so strange! Could she be seeking refuge with us?!"

After saying this, even Housekeeper Jia didn’t believe it!

Lin Feng rolled his eyes and said sarcastically, "Liang Lan is Lu Xiaobu’s woman and his most trusted lieutenant, her loyalty is beyond question!"

"To say she’s defecting to us is nothing more than wishful thinking!"

"But if she really were to come over to us, I would spare no expense!"

Housekeeper Jia gave an awkward laugh, "I was just speaking casually, I don’t believe it either."

Lin Feng then furrowed his brows, "Could it be that there’s a problem on Lu Xiaobu’s side, and they’re seeking my help?"

As someone who understood Lu Xiaobu the best, Lin Feng almost instantly guessed Liang Lan’s intention.

"Has anyone targeted Lu Xiaobu lately? Domestically, overseas? Even officially?" Lin Feng asked.

"No, the only ones we’ve had dealings with recently are kk and qq!" Housekeeper Jia shook his head and replied emphatically.

"Could it be a physical problem with Lu Xiaobu? No, if it were a physical issue, they wouldn’t need me... could it be a mental problem?!" Lin Feng speculated.

At that moment, Liang Lan had already walked in.

"Yes, Young Master Lin, my Young Master is very depressed, please lend us your help!" Liang Lan came before Lin Feng, bowing deeply without any hesitation.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Liang Lan, Liang Lan, you’re a smart woman, why do you think I should help Lu Xiaobu?"

Lin Feng looked at the bowing Liang Lan, sneered, took the red wine from Housekeeper Jia’s hand and said. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Lu Xiaobu and I have been enemies from the start, so what if he’s depressed? I wish he were more depressed!"

"And now you ask me to rekindle his fighting spirit, are you crazy? Or am I crazy?"

Lin Feng took a sip of red wine and said indifferently, "Thank you for the information. You may leave now. Housekeeper Jia, show her out!"

Housekeeper Jia looked at Liang Lan with pity, but still sighed, "Miss Liang, please. Someone, show Miss Liang out!"

He had already helped Lu Xiaobu last time, and this time he won’t, and can’t, help again!

"Young Master Lin! Young Master Lin!" Liang Lan was instantly anxious.

Seeing the black-clad men approaching the doorway, she suddenly bit her lip, knelt down hard, her beautiful forehead hitting the floor!

The sound was so forceful that it broke her delicate skin, blood streaming down!

The two black-clad men saw this, immediately stopped, unsure of what to do.

"What are you doing? Playing this trick with me? You’ve been around Lu Xiaobu for so long, do you think I have a soft spot for women?"

Lin Feng’s brows furrowed slightly, a sneer on his lips, he stood up with his wine in hand and walked to the window, "Show her out!"

"Young Master Lin! Young Master Lin! Young Master Lin!"

Liang Lan followed with three loud head-knocks, the blood soaking the carpet, looking exceedingly pitiful!

Some might not understand why she’s doing this.

Lu Xiaobu is merely depressed, why go to such lengths?!

No! You don’t understand! Young Master isn’t merely depressed!

Who is Young Master?! A fearless man who dares to jump from the top of buildings without a second thought!

For a man like that, no external enemies can harm him!

Unless he self-destructs!

And right now, Young Master is on the brink of self-destruction!

It’s essentially self-destruction akin to suicide!

Smart people are indeed intelligent, typically succeeding in whatever they do!

But when they walk into a dead end of their own making, it’s unsolvable!

Is Young Master a smart person?!

Certainly! And not just any smart person!

Young Master is so smart that he can see through everything!

And it’s this insight that has led to his current self-doubt and self-destruction!

He’s even beginning to question the value of his own existence, even if in the end he grits his teeth and doesn’t take extreme steps because of various responsibilities, living would be no different than being a corpse!

She doesn’t want, doesn’t want the man she loves, who dominates the world and treats it as nothing, to become like that!

So, she would do anything!

"Hah! Women!" Lin Feng sneered at this sight, "Fine! I’ll be merciful and help him rekindle his fighting spirit!"

"Really?!" Liang Lan immediately raised her head, though her face was covered in blood, the joy in her eyes was unmistakable!

"I said I can, so I can." Lin Feng approached Liang Lan, looking down at her, "The method is actually quite simple."

"First, if I were to have my way with you here today, given your Young Master’s character, he’d come for my life!"

Lin Feng’s words, cold as a devil’s, made Liang Lan, who had just found hope, suddenly tremble, retreating several steps, clutching her clothes, looking at Lin Feng in terror.

"No need to be afraid, I’m not that desperate." Lin Feng sneered, opened a nearby drawer, pulled out a dagger, and threw it to the ground.

"Thud!"

The dagger hit the floor with a dull thud.

"The second option, right here, right now, you end it yourself, and your Young Master would equally go to war with me! Thus, your wish is fulfilled! Choose for yourself!"

The chilling tone in Lin Feng’s words made the temperature in the room drop several degrees, making everyone shudder involuntarily.

Yet Lin Feng was indifferent, swirling his wine as he walked to the window, silently watching the scenery outside!

Some might call him cold-blooded.

But so what?!

He had no obligation to help Lu Xiaobu!

If Lu Xiaobu came in person, that would be different!

But you’re just a woman, here to wail and sob in front of me, what does that count for?!

Presumptuous and self-important!

Liang Lan looked at the dagger on the ground, stunned for a while before tremblingly reaching out to pick it up.

Is she afraid of death?

Yes! Terribly afraid!

Afraid that once she dies, she’d never see Young Master Bu again!

But she has no choice!

Having promised to spare no expense, she truly means it!

I am Young Master Bu’s woman, I cannot disgrace him!

Luo Xue, Little Pepper, Qianmin, Xue Lin, take care of Young Master!

I’m going ahead!

Young Master, I hope you can pull yourself together, perhaps think of me once in a while!

With this thought, Liang Lan’s hand became steadier, a curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.

A beautiful yet tragic smile mixed with blood!

Heartbreaking, yet intoxicating!
