    Chapter 48

    Jasmine came out with a basin to fetch water and prepared to wash the young lady’s face. She happened to bump into Aunt Li. When Aunt Li told her about the situation in the front yard, she was so frightened that the basin fell to the ground and splashed her trousers.

    “Miss, something serious has happened. Master wants to deal with Teacher Shen.” Jasmine quickly ran to the room to inform Lan Yuan of the news.

    Lan Yuan had been sitting there with eyes wandering for half an hour. When she heard that something was wrong with Shen Xian, she immediately came back to her senses.

    “What did you say?” Lan Yuan firmly grasped the corner of Jasmine’s clothes.

    Aunt Li also came in at this time and knelt directly on the ground——

    “Miss, something really bad is going on. Please save Girl Shen.”

    Lan Yuan immediately put on some clothes and ran out, so anxious that she didn’t even put on her shoes.

    Su Wan came over and stopped her——

    “You can’t save her. If you go there, you will only hurt yourself.”

    With such a commotion in the house, Su Wan also learned some information from her mother-in-law. As expected, Lan Yuan and Shen Xian didn’t know what was going on.

    “Get away.” Lan Yuan roared, no longer as calm as usual, and continued to rush forward regardless of the obstruction.

    This was the first time in her life that she had lost her temper in front of everyone in the Lan Mansion. From this “get out”, her eighteen years of well-behaved life came to an end.

    “Are you crazy?” Su Wan pulled Lan Yuan hard, leaned closer and whispered to her, “You two are already ridiculous, and it’s time to stop.”

    Lan Yuan pushed Su Wan away and said, “You don’t have to worry about it.”

    Suddenly thinking of something else, Lan Yuan returned to the dressing table and took out a sharp silver hairpin and pinned it to her hair.

    This pedantic Lan family was about to devour her Chen Xian. Lan Yuan was afraid that a second later would lead to tragedy, so she ran with all her strength!

    Master Lan’s side——

    Shen Xiangen couldn’t help himself and was tied directly to the bench.

    “Butler, beat me to death!” Master Lan ordered through gritted teeth.

    “If you dare to lynch today, you will be facing lawsuits tomorrow.” Shen Xian said bluntly.

    “I have lived for almost fifty years. Who dares to hold me responsible for killing a bad teacher?” Mr. Lan really felt that Shen Xian didn’t know the heights of the world.

    “Is human life so worthless in your eyes?” Shen Xian shouted.

    “People have high and low status, and human life naturally has high and low status, and you have a low life.” Master Lan pointed at Shen Xian and scolded him.

    Chen Xian sneered, “If you beat me to death, you will definitely know the price.”

    If the life of a powerful person is precious, then today Shen Xian also wants to put himself in danger and drag Master Lan into trouble.

    And if his death can send Mr. Lan to hell, isn’t this a way for Lan Yuan to free himself from his shackles?

    It’s just a pity that she should have said goodbye to Lan Yuan yesterday. Shen Xian felt that this was the biggest regret!

    When the stick fell on his body, Shen Xian screamed in pain at first, and gradually, gradually, he lost consciousness…

    When Lan Yuan arrived, although Shen Xian was still alive, he was only half alive. His back was bloody and he fainted.

    “Stop, you are killing someone.” Lan Yuan stopped the butler’s stick from falling on Shen Xian.

    Chen Xian heard Lan Yuan’s voice vaguely and thought it was an illusion. Lan Yuan was in Jinling, how could he be in Yangzhou?

    “Blue…Lan…Blue Kite.” But he still called with a weak voice.

    On the road to Huangquan, Shen Xian didn’t want to forget Lan Yuan’s name, so he called it over and over again!

    Lan Yuan immediately stuck to her face, holding Shen Xian’s hand, unable to stop her tears, “I’ll take you to the hospital, you must hold on.”

    “Don’t cry, hurry up and get out of here.” Shen Xian opened her eyes, and the touch on her palms convinced her that this was not an illusion.

    She didn’t want Lan Yuan to see her bloody appearance, for fear of leaving a shadow on her!

    Lan Yuan took Shen Xian’s hand and put it on her face, shaking her head, “I won’t leave, I won’t leave you. Just hold on, I’ll take you to the hospital now.”

    Mr. Lan couldn’t see that they still wanted to be miserable mandarin ducks, so he took the stick from the butler’s hand and gave it to Chen Xian.

    The stick fell on Shen Xian, and Shen Xian fainted completely. No matter how much Lan Yuan called, it was of no avail.

    “If you hit Shen Xian today, beat me to death first.” Lan Yuan stood in front of Shen Xian and spoke to his father with cold eyes.

    “Come here, pull the lady aside.” Mr. Lan scolded sternly.

    Lan Yuan went completely crazy, her eyes were red. She ran directly to Su Wan who was quietly watching the excitement a few meters away, locked her throat, and held the silver hairpin against Su Wan’s neck.

    “Whoever dares to touch Shen Xian, I will kill your young mistress!” Lan Yuan threatened.

    “Are you crazy? Use me as a bargaining chip!” Su Wan said nervously, because the silver hairpin had pierced the skin.

    “Your only role is to be a bargaining chip for me.” Lan Yuan said coldly to Su Wan.

    “Let go of your sister-in-law!” Mr. Lan pointed at Lan Yuan. Is this daughter trying to break the law today?

    “Send Chen Xian to the hospital and I will let Su Wan go.” Lan Yuan requested.

    Master Lan winked at the butler, who quietly walked around behind Lan Yuan with several other servants.

    “I promise you.” Master Lan pretended to throw the stick on the ground and asked the servant to lift the string.

    Lan Yuan paid full attention to Chen Xian’s every move. The housekeeper and several servants attacked from behind, grabbed Lan Yuan’s hand, and pressed him to the ground, allowing Su Wan to break free.

    “You lied to me!” Lan Yuan fell to the ground and glared at her father.

    “Miss, it’s better not to go against the master.” The housekeeper advised coldly. After seeing that Su Wan was safe, he let go of Lan Yuan.

    With hatred in her heart, Lan Yuan grabbed the silver hairpin on the ground and inserted it directly into the butler’s abdomen to vent her anger.

    The butler fell to the ground instantly.

    “Even if I die, I won’t let you guys go.” Lan Yuan’s hands were covered with blood, she pulled out the silver hairpin and pointed at everyone.

    “If father wants to beat Shen Xian, beat me to death first.” Throwing down the silver hairpin, Lan Yuan walked to Shen Xian and knelt on the ground.

    Mr. Lan never thought that his daughter would be so ruthless and dare to kill people. Today she dared to kill a servant, and the next day she would dare to kill her father. He was afraid!

    “Do you think I dare not beat you to death? I would rather have a dead daughter whose reputation is still there than have you live and ruin my Lan family.” Mr. Lan hit Lan Yuan hard with a stick.

    Lan Yuan finally realized Shen Xian’s suffering and laughed inexplicably, saying to herself, “Is reputation more important than the happiness of their children?”

    Today’s father completely disappointed Lan Yuan.

    “It would be better for you to marry a beggar than to hang out with this woman now.” Mr. Lan stamped his feet angrily.

    “Whether I marry or who I marry is all my own business. You don’t need to interfere. I’m not afraid of pointing fingers. Why do you make the decision for me?”

    Lan Yuan looked around at the people in the yard, including her own mother, father, sister-in-law, and a group of servants. These were all the murderers who were about to kill her and Shen Xian. She would remember their faces and would not let them go even if they were evil!

    Mr. Lan hit Lan Yuan three more times, “Since you want to die, I will help you, and I will let Shen Xian watch me beat you to death.”

    Mr. Lan picked up the hammer and wanted to break Chen Xian’s hand to wake him up.

    After receiving three sticks, Lan Yuan fell to the ground in pain, but she still used all her strength to hold her father’s feet and prevent him from going to Shen Xian!

    Lan Yuan vowed to keep Chen Xian’s hand——

    Shen Xian’s hands cannot be used up. The music played by her hands is so beautiful. The piano is her lifelong dream. If Shen Xian loses her hands, life in the future will be worse than death.

    Lan Yuan couldn’t help but laugh at herself. At this point, she was still thinking about surviving. No one would come to save her!

    Master Lan kicked his daughter away with force, and the hammer was about to fall, when suddenly——

    With a bang, the door of Lan’s house was pushed open by several soldiers.

    One of the men in military uniform rushed over and subdued Mr. Lan to the ground, pointing a gun at his head.

    Xu Ziyu walked in struttingly, wearing a dark green cheongsam with a charming face. The sky was still dark, like a wicked person coming from hell. Everyone shuddered when they saw her.

    Lan Yuan seemed to have seen a savior, and immediately climbed to Xu Ziyu’s side with all her strength. She wanted to find a way for Shen Xian to survive——

    “Save Chen Xian quickly!” He pointed in the direction of Chen Xian.

    Only after this reminder did Xu Ziyu notice that the tied and bloody person was Shen Xian. Looking at the large pools of blood on the ground, his body couldn’t help but tremble, and his hands and feet were cold.

    “Send that person to the hospital quickly.” Xu Ziyu immediately ordered a guard behind him to send him to the hospital.

    Hunter lifted up Lan Yuan on the ground and took them to the hospital.

    “I heard the excitement of the Lan family very clearly in Jinling, so I came here specifically to take a look.” He said sarcastically.

    Then he smoked a cigarette to refresh himself, blowing smoke rings with a charming expression.

    Today, she has to personally deal with some ants who don’t know the heights of the world!

    “Who are you, running wild in my house?” Mr. Lan felt that he was completely humiliated, and he lay on the ground and roared.

    Xu Ziyu only felt that Mr. Lan was barking like a dog, very noisy, so he directly dusted the cigarette ashes on the back of Mr. Lan’s hand, and then announced his home——

    “The Foreign Minister of the National Government is my eldest brother, my father is the director of the Gun Manufacturing Bureau, and I am her youngest daughter. I should be familiar with the Xu family in Jinling!”

    Master Lan’s legs went weak after hearing these words. He naturally knew about the Xu family in Jinling, and also knew that the Xu family’s youngest daughter was married to the prominent son of the Du family. No one here could offend this Buddha!

    “I have always been willing to draw my sword to help when there is injustice, so I came to your house today to deliver justice.” Xu Ziyu walked straight to the Lan family’s hall and took a seat.

    Xu Ziyu couldn’t bear to look at the pool of blood on the ground in the yard, so she walked in.

    The officer also escorted Mr. Lan to the living room and continued to hold him on the ground.

    Mrs. Lan served tea in time and wanted to plead for Master Lan, but she couldn’t find a chance to speak!

    After a long journey, Xu Ziyu didn’t bother to drink the water from the Lan family, but he really needed tea to refresh himself, so he took a sip of it while holding back his disgust.

    Moreover, she had quit smoking for a long time. If she hadn’t been frightened by the bloody Shen Xian just now, she would never have smoked to refresh herself for fear of fainting on the spot.

    “Do you know who you beat today?” Xu Ziyu asked Mr. Lan on the ground after drinking tea.

    “This… villain is stupid and short-sighted. I really don’t know. Please enlighten me.” Mr. Lan looked at the superior Xu Ziyu humbly, regretting that he hit Chen Xian today.

    Xu Ziyu did not answer immediately, but directly picked up the teapot and poured all the hot tea into Master Lan’s hand.

    “My hands are shaking, I’m sorry to spill all over you.” Xu Ziyu smiled and threw the teapot on the ground.

    “It’s okay, I’m fine, just don’t burn it.” Mr. Lan didn’t dare to get angry or speak.

    Xu Ziyu sneered and continued: “Chen Xian is my sister. Her father is the former British Ambassador to China and now works in the British Foreign Office. By the way, Shen Xian’s nationality is British. Now… do you know who you are beating?”

    Having said that, Xu Ziyu glanced at Mr. Lan with interest, looking at his disgusting look of bullying the weak and fearing the strong!
