Su Liang may never know that a stroll during his midnight dream made the direction of the world line completely different from the world he had experienced before. Lu Taipan, whose body should have been seriously damaged due to mental loss of control, successfully conducted a dagger-in-cheek negotiation with Lu Zhengen in this world.
He also would not know that the "something" that secretly disappeared in Xingchuan University triggered another undercurrent between the Canaan government and the Earth Alliance, but this time, the Earth Alliance had the upper hand.
At this time, the young beta was only thinking about finding a way to completely sever ties with the two troublesome people.
Then a few days later, an agreement from the top management of the Lu family appeared in front of him.
Of course, it would be better to say that it was an order that could not be refused at all: as a Beta with an extremely low pheromone overflow value, Su Liang was selected by the Lu family to go to the Lu family villa, which was the confidential area where the head of the Lu family, Lu Taipan, was conditioning his body, to provide internal family service for half a year.
"A service period within the family... I agree."
Su Liang looked at the document in front of him, thought for a very short time, and then nodded.
"We sincerely hope that you can seriously consider your choice this time. Considering that you were previously involved in Master Lu Zhizhao's mental breakdown, this can be regarded as an opportunity to atone for your sins - do you agree?!"
The middle-aged man in front of him, wearing an old-fashioned robe, was brewing all kinds of threatening and inducement remarks, but when he suddenly heard Su Liang's extremely straightforward response, he almost bit his tongue.
He looked at Su Liang in surprise, and it took him a long time to adjust his facial expression.
"You have such a strong desire to repay the Lu family. It's very good."
He said dryly.
But there was a hint of mockery and sympathy in the look he gave Su Liang.
Even if they knew nothing about Lu Taipan's current true situation, ordinary members of the Lu family should have felt hesitant and resistant when they received the order for internal family services. The villa where Lu Taipan lives is kept secret at a level comparable to that of some military facilities in the Earth Alliance. Going to the "Snake Cave" to serve means being isolated from his family and friends for half a year. Considering the strict rules and regulations and the dead atmosphere in the "Snake Cave", working in the "Snake Cave" is basically equivalent to going to jail.
Most importantly, as a student of Xingchuan University, Su Liang’s studies will be interrupted because of this.
Of course, according to the so-called "steward" of the Lu family, they will inform Xingchuan University and register the six-month service period as an internal internship within the group. But even this cannot change the reality that Su Liang will be away from the classroom for half a year.
In other words, only those side branch members who are completely ignorant of the actual situation and have been completely excluded from the core of the Lu family would so naively agree to serve in the "Snake Cave".
The steward obviously thought so.
Su Liang naturally did not miss the manager's strange look. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the agreement in front of him without showing any unnecessary emotion.
In fact, Su Liang certainly knew that going to the "Snake Cave" was definitely not a good thing, not just because of the superficial problems, he knew more than most people - for example, he knew very well that the owner of the "Snake Cave", Lu Taipan, was in a very bad condition, and there was a very high possibility that his mental sea would completely collapse and become a complete useless person. Once a double S-level Alpha like Lu Taipan completely collapses, it will cause an extremely terrifying mental riot. At that time, all people within the range of his mental power will probably be impacted and injured.
Moreover, Lu Taipan has a serious pheromone disorder. Even a very slight pheromone leakage may cause him to suddenly attack and injure others. In serious cases, he may even die directly.
but……
Su Liang knew one thing more clearly, which was that the Lu family would never let him go.
In his previous life, he was completely blinded by love and could not see the high-pressure situation undercurrents in the Lu family today.
The marriage between the Lu family and the Ning family is a necessary move for Lu Zhengen, Lu Zhizhao's father and the current acting head of the Lu family. After all, only by relying on the Ning family's help through marriage, Lu Zhengen will have the possibility of becoming the real head of the Lu family after Lu Taipan's death.
Under such circumstances, a young Beta who would make Lu Zhizhao obsessed and worried about him is simply the worst existence.
Su Liang even suspected that if he had not eloped with Lu Zhizhao in his previous life but stayed in the Lu family, he would most likely have died due to some "accident".
In comparison, the "snake cave" that seems to be full of dangers, depressing and closed is actually a good place to go.
Even though Su Liang had been told by Lu Zhizhao about many of Lu Taipan's horrific deeds before, it was still difficult for him to feel any real dislike for the man in the rumors.
When Su Liang saw the word "snake cave" in the agreement, the first thing that came to his mind was the cold but extremely handsome face of the "Viper" warrior who did not want to leave his name.
Everyone knows that the "venomous snakes" under Lu Taipan are fanatically loyal and love him.
A man who could earn the loyalty and support of the cold-hearted but kind-hearted elder brother in memory with his life could not be a bad person in any way.
At least, Lu Taipan would not deliberately cause trouble for an unknown, weak and ordinary beta.
Compared with Lu Taipan, Lu Zhizhao and Ning Jiayi caused Su Liang more trouble.
When Su Liang thought that after going to the "Snake Cave", he would have half a year without having to worry about the mess between Lu Zhizhao and Ning Jiayi, he even felt relieved when signing his name on the agreement.
The only difficult part is to convince Su Nuan to accept this matter.
Fortunately, Su Nuan and her brother-in-law are just marginal figures in the Lu family, so naturally they have no channels to learn about Lu Taipan’s current true situation.
Su Nuan was simply worried about Su Liang's studies, and was even more reluctant to let Su Liang leave her.
Regarding the first point, Su Liang had already told the professor that in the next six months he would focus on sorting out the various knowledge and details needed to serve as a basic subject teacher in District 48. After all, what he needs to study is completely different from those classmates who are destined to enter large corporate groups after graduation.
The latter point is even simpler...
"The six months I've been away should be enough time for Lu Zhizhao and Ning Jiayi to develop a true relationship. When they become lovers, they won't think of looking for me anymore."
Su Liang analyzed this to his sister sincerely.
Su Nuan: "You are right."
…
After spending some time trying to appease Su Nuan, Su Liang quickly agreed with the senior steward of the Lu family on the time to go to the Lu family villa, also known as the "Snake Cave".
The speed and the expectant attitude even caught the manager who had secretly received a lot of bribes off guard, and his attitude towards Su Liang became particularly strange.
A few days later——
"Actually, the service period is six months, so you don't have to be so careless."
The manager said to Su Liang who was carrying his luggage and preparing to get on the bus.
Su Liang smiled sweetly at him but didn't say anything.
Of course, in Su Liang's heart, he was just about to shout out loud -
How could it not be fast! 】
Su Liang has already inquired about it, and Lu Zhizhao’s confinement time is about to expire!
God knows, Su Liang didn't want to meet Lu Zhizhao again before he went to the Lu family villa.
He could imagine that with Lu Zhizhao's resistance to Lu Taipan, he would try every possible means to stop him from going to the villa in the name of protection.
In his previous life, Su Liang knew that although Lu Zhizhao was nominally the future heir designated by the Lu family, the relationship between him and his uncle could not be said to be close. After all, the relationship between Lu Zhizhao's father, Lu Zhengen, and Lu Taipan has always been delicate.
Of course, Su Liang was not interested in this kind of secret and bloody power struggle between wealthy heirs. He just didn't want to get foolishly involved in it like he did in his previous life and die so miserably.
When Su Liang thought of Lu Zhizhao and Ning Jiayi, he couldn't help but shiver.
He simply couldn't wait to go.
I have to say that Su Liang's plan was perfect and he had a very thorough understanding of Lu Zhizhao.
However, Su Liang had calculated everything, but he did not expect that in the end he would be stopped halfway.
“Crunch—”
The hovercraft that Su Liang was riding in made a sharp braking sound and then stopped suddenly.
After emergency braking, the driver looked ahead with a pale face.
"Where did this guy come from? Do you want to kill yourself? How dare you stop the car like this--"
The driver from the Lu family was about to open his mouth to scold the other party, but after seeing the face of the extremely reckless and reckless culprit, he quickly shut up.
"Master Lu?!"
The figure that jumped out of the other car was very familiar. It was the person that Su Liang had been avoiding.
"Xiaoliang! Come down!"
Lu Zhizhao's slightly blue face appeared outside the car.
He looked much more haggard than the last time we met. He seemed to have become so thin that he was unrecognizable. It even made people worry whether he had suffered some mental trauma.
He banged on the car window hard, and a hoarse growl came clearly into the car from outside the window.
Su Liang looked hesitantly through the car window at Lu Zhizhao, who had become a little unfamiliar. While he was still hesitating, the other party had already taken the lead and directly opened the car door. The doors of the floating car, which should have been extremely strong, were as fragile as paper in the face of the brute force of the S-class Alpha.
"Lu Zhizhao?"
Su Liang only had time to shout out Lu Zhizhao's name. The next second, Lu Zhizhao reached out, grabbed his wrist, and dragged the skinny beta off the hovercraft.
"Master Lu, what are you doing?"
Maybe the driver also realized that something was wrong with Lu Zhizhao, so he mustered up the courage to step forward to dissuade him, but Lu Zhizhao didn't even turn his head. The pressure from the Alpha spread instantly, and the driver's face turned pale. In an instant, he covered his head and curled up in pain, no longer having the strength to move forward.
"Lu Zhizhao, you are attacking ordinary people! What's wrong with you?!"
Seeing this scene, Su Liang's hair stood on end.
Maybe Lu Zhizhao was indeed a complete troublemaker to him, but over the years, Su Liang had to admit that the Lu Zhizhao he knew was always reliable, calm, and trustworthy in front of other people.
The man in front of him with bloodshot eyes and a sinister face was very different from the Lu Zhizhao he knew.
"Lu Zhizhao, shouldn't you be in confinement?"
Lu Zhizhao grabbed Su Liang's wrist. He seemed to have used all his strength. Su Liang felt a sharp pain in his wrist and he almost cried out in pain.
But he still held back.
Out of some inexplicable self-awareness, Su Liang instinctively did not dare to do anything extreme. He did not dare to irritate Lu Zhizhao, so he could only force himself to remain calm and asked in a pretended calm tone.
"Why are you here?"
"I escaped."
Lu Zhizhao stared at Su Liang and said.
"Someone told me that you were sent to my uncle's villa." He added, "So I came to find you."
After he finished speaking, Lu Zhizhao turned around, grabbed Su Liang's hand and was about to walk out.
"You are not suitable to go to that kind of place. It is too dangerous. Xiaoliang, don't be afraid. I will talk to my father and ask him to withdraw the order."
"It's not that bad. I volunteered... Lu Zhizhao, wait a minute, are you okay?"
Even though Su Liang no longer wanted to provoke Lu Zhizhao, he couldn't help but raise his voice when he was almost dragged away by Lu Zhizhao.
He had noticed that Lu Zhizhao had many wounds on his body, and his hands and neck were covered in blood: it was as if Lu Zhizhao had forcibly torn apart some restraining device and escaped.
"Lu Zhizhao, are you injured?"
Hearing Su Liang's question, Lu Zhizhao suddenly paused. He turned around abruptly, still looking at Su Liang with that blank, creepy gaze.
After a moment, he gave a slightly twisted smile.
"I'm fine." Lu Zhizhao said hoarsely, "But I've been having nightmares these past few days, so I haven't rested well."
"Xiaoliang, seeing that you are okay, I am naturally okay too."
He murmured.
He had no idea that he had scared Su Liang.
The author has something to say:
Lu Zhizhao: I remembered a little bit, but not completely.
Today is also the day to try to snatch a male aunt!
