Chapter 45: The Lucky King 12: The Lucky King
The lights in the venue dimmed.
The host on the stage pressed a button and the lottery machine started working again.
"Now, let's draw the fourth lucky winner. The fourth prize is..."
The lottery on the stage is still going on.
When Lian Shuo saw Wu Lan's figure, his body had already walked in that direction before his brain could react.
But there were a lot of people gathered around him, blocking his way forward. After the beam of light went out, there was no trace of Wu Lan left.
Never before had he been so annoyed by the people around him. Lian Shuo's eyes darkened and his thin lips stretched into a straight line.
His expression was gloomy, and the low pressure he exuded made people afraid to approach him easily, for fear of being affected by his displeasure.
But some people didn't notice it. They were still distracted by the angelic boy they had just seen and couldn't come back to their senses.
"Whose young master is that? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"He shouldn't be some young master." The speaker paused and then said, "Didn't you see the person standing next to him?"
"He seems to have come with the Yan family member. They even wore the same suit. They must be related."
"The one from the Yan family? You mean the current head of the Yan family? But I heard that he has never brought anyone to any events. There has been no one around him for so many years."
"I think that boy has a close relationship with Master Fei," someone else chimed in. "I saw it all just now. He put his arm around the boy's shoulders and even leaned down to kiss him..."
He stopped talking midway. Lian Shuo, who had been staring at him since some point, gave him the creeps. His cold gaze was like a needle dipped in poison.
That handsome face was half hidden by the shadows, and it was hard to tell what he was feeling. His voice, tinged with ice, crawled slowly towards him like a cold-blooded venomous snake:
"Go on, what else did you see?"
*
After the lucky draw, Wu Lan was taken aside by the staff to receive her prize.
She stood quietly by and waited. After the two people in front of her had received their prizes, Wu Lan walked over and took the luxurious two-day seaside vacation voucher handed to her by the staff.
The staff member was a young girl. She was a little distracted when she looked at Wu Lan's fair and tender face.
The person next to her touched her, and she quickly said, "This is the prize you won. The voucher entitles you to a two-day, one-night luxury seaside vacation. Details on how to participate are printed on the back of the voucher, or you can check it out on our official website."
"Um... there's something I need to tell you in advance. Because we're collaborating on this event with another brand, we need your cooperation. You need to wear the designated outfits and take photos during your vacation so we can promote it."
Wu Lan was curious: "What do you mean by special clothing?"
"Actually, they're swimsuits. They're some new models that haven't been released yet."
Just put on your swimsuit and take two photos, and you can enjoy a super luxurious beach vacation. Only a fool would refuse it.
Fearing that she would miss this rare and precious opportunity, Wu Lan nodded and agreed without even thinking: "I can do it, no problem at all!"
After receiving the prize, Wu Lan put the ticket into her shirt pocket with a pious look on her face, and reached in to touch it from time to time, patting her pocket as if it was her treasure, with a satisfied look on her face.
His happy and excited mood was still high, his face was a little red, and he felt a little stuffy in here and wanted to go out for some fresh air.
He did not leave the venue, but simply pushed open the glass door connecting to the terrace.
Because the floor was high, a cool breeze blew across my cheeks, blowing my hair, and the heat on my face slowly dissipated.
The terrace is not very big, it is semicircular and can only accommodate two or three people.
Wu Lan thought that no one would come here except him, but before he had been here for two minutes, the glass door behind him was pushed open again.
"I was right. It really is you."
The familiar voice made Wu Lan turn around and look at Si Qinyu, whom he hadn't seen for several days. He was stunned for a moment, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Brother Qin Yu, why are you here too?"
"I was invited by a friend."
Si Qinyu also had a smile on his face. He walked over and stood beside Wu Lan. "You are very lucky today."
Knowing that Si Qinyu was referring to winning the lottery, Wu Lan nodded in agreement, feeling a little proud. With her eyes squinted, she whispered a secret to him:
"I'm the lottery king."
The boy's clear and pleasant voice was filled with joy. He leaned forward while speaking, and with a smiling head tilted back, he looked like a kitten waiting to be patted on the head.
Si Qinyu couldn't help but raised his hand to touch Wu Lan's head, carefully tidying up the boy's soft hair that was messed up by the wind.
They haven't seen each other for several days since they last met at an art exhibition.
I have been busy with the art exhibition recently, and now it is finally coming to an end and I can take a good rest.
"Xiao Lan, do you remember I drew a picture for you before?"
Seeing Wu Lan nod, Si Qinyu continued, "On the day the painting was exhibited, someone said they wanted to buy it."
"I didn't agree at the time, but over the next few days, different people came to me and said they wanted to buy paintings."
"Did you sell it then?"
Si Qinyu shook her head, and the hand that was helping to tidy up her hair came to Wu Lan's bow tie, and her slender fingers gently straightened the crooked bow tie.
"That painting is a gift for you. I won't sell it no matter how much money you offer."
To be honest, he felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have exhibited the painting. He wanted to hide it and not let anyone take a second look at it.
But the boy in the painting was so perfect and so beautiful that he wanted to show it off proudly and let people know that beauty existed.
Such conflicted emotions led him to cover the painting with a cloth again and only appreciate it when no one was around.
"I'll send the paintings to your home after the exhibition is over."
Wu Lan thought about the area of the apartment and the size of the painting, and felt that there was no extra space in the house to display the painting.
Even if I hang it up, it won't work because it will get in the way.
But it’s not easy to say this directly. After all, this is the other person’s intention, and it’s not right to say this.
Wu Lan's eyes rolled around as he thought of something.
"Brother Qin Yu, do you like that painting?"
"Of course I like it." Si Qinyu said without hesitation: "I like it very much."
"Then I'll give you the painting."
Since Si Qinyu likes it, let him keep the painting and there will be no need to go through the trouble of moving it around.
"Can you really give me this?"
With his face held in someone's hand, Wu Lan saw that Si Qinyu seemed quite happy with his reaction, and he nodded quickly, "Sure~"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Si Qinyu bend down and place a light kiss on each of his cheeks with her thin lips.
Through previous conversations, he knew that Si Qinyu had been living abroad and understood that this was just a way of expressing happiness.
He was a worldly-wise man and was not surprised at all.
On the contrary, the two people who suddenly pushed open the glass door were shocked by this scene, and their faces suddenly turned dark, as if they were owed money.
The small terrace was full of people.
Wu Lan was about to be crushed by them.
On the left was Si Qinyu, on the right was Fei Sheng, and Yan Chiheng was standing right in front of him. The expressions of the three of them could not be described as very good.
The three men were all very tall, and their tall and straight figures almost buried Wu Lan in the middle, squeezing him so hard that his feet could hardly touch the ground.
It's like a kitten surrounded by people, having to tilt its head back to see them clearly.
Looking at the person in front, and then at the people on his left and right, Wu Lan keenly noticed that the mood of these three people was not right, and it felt like a fight was about to break out in the next second.
He swallowed fearfully and tried to hide to the side, but was blocked from behind.
"What were you doing?"
Fei Sheng stared at Si Qinyu with gritted teeth, nudged his itchy back teeth, and suppressed his anger: "Who allowed you to kiss him?"
Yan Chiheng on the side didn't say anything, but just looked at Si Qinyu with cold eyes.
Seeing that the two people had bad intentions, Si Qinyu narrowed his eyes and asked instead of answering, "Who are you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the air pressure around him dropped to freezing point.
Although it was still broad daylight in the afternoon, Wu Lan felt a little cold and shivered suddenly.
He felt that he should introduce them to each other, but when he said "we are all friends", Fei Sheng suddenly pinched his chin and kissed him on the cheek without saying a word.
With a "pop" sound, Wu Lan was stunned.
"Since we're all friends, it's okay for me to kiss you."
According to Fei Sheng's words and logic, it seems that there is indeed no big problem...
Wu Lan nodded slowly, and the next second another big hand pinched his chin. When he raised his head, Yan Chiheng's kiss fell on his forehead.
Unlike Fei Sheng who made a sound when kissing for fear that others might not hear him, Yan Chiheng's kiss was very light and gentle.
The slightly cool kiss made Wu Lan stunned. He stared blankly at Yan Chiheng, then at Fei Sheng, not knowing how to react for a moment.
Only Si Qinyu's face turned ugly. He didn't know these two people, but he could see that their actions revealed obvious hostility.
Seeing Wu Lan being kissed twice in succession, his eyes darkened and he reached out to pull Wu Lan behind him.
But he was a step too slow, and the glass door to the terrace was opened again.
The person who opened the door was very strong, and with a "click", the fragile glass door shook visibly a few times.
A tall young man with a stern face stood inside. He had a gloomy expression and his eyes swept across the faces of the three men before falling on the little boy sandwiched between them.
The pretty little snow-white face was obviously in a daze, her watery eyes were motionless, her cheeks were abnormally pink, and her bright red mouth was slightly open.
The dark blue suit had become a little messy now, the small bow tie was crooked, the hair was sticking up, and no one knew what he was doing when he was surrounded by people, but it was messed up.
Lian Shuo's handsome face turned completely dark. He clenched his teeth and looked gloomy, as if he wanted to torture the three people to death on the spot.
He did not miss the scene of Wu Lan being kissed repeatedly.
"Xiao Lan, come here." Trying hard to suppress his anger, Lian Shuo reached out to Wu Lan, intending to pull her to his side first and then settle the score.
The expressions and faces of the four people in front of him were very ugly, especially Lian Shuo who was standing by the door, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
The report of Lian Shuo's increasing patience value kept ringing in his head. From 2720's report without any fluctuation in tone, Wu Lan vaguely heard 2720's bad taste of watching the fire from the other side of the river.
The four people present were staring at him. Such terrifying looks made him afraid to move, as if nails were driven into his feet.
Suddenly, Fei Sheng sneered.
"What should I do? Xiaolan doesn't want to be with you."
His tone was provocative, his eyebrows raised, and his broad palms gently stroked Wu Lan's shoulders, holding her in his arms without leaving any trace.
Lian Shuo stared at the arm that was holding Wu Lan, his voice cold as he spoke word by word:
"Let go of my hand!"
"Who are you to command me?" Fei Sheng's eyes changed, and he remembered something. The corner of his mouth curled up with a hint of sarcasm: "Living together? No, is it the status of a tenant?"
As Fei Sheng finished speaking, Wu Lan felt a chill on her back.
He clearly heard Lian Shuo's patience value rise from 70 to 87, and it seemed that it would continue to rise.
Wu Lan's task is to max out Lian Shuo's patience value, but when the patience value approaches 90, the system suddenly issues a sharp warning.
[Beep! The target's mood has been detected to be unstable. The patience value monitoring cannot accurately determine the specific value. The patience value cannot be increased too quickly at one time! ! !]
[Please note: Once the tolerance value is completely out of control, it will be reset and recalculated!!!]
Wu Lan was dumbfounded.
He had never heard of such restrictions before. If his patience value got out of control this time, all his previous efforts would be in vain and he would have to start all over again.
Seeing the warning sounds becoming more and more urgent, Wu Lan became visibly panicked and tried hard to think of a countermeasure with his not-so-bright brain.
Suddenly, an idea came to me!
While the three people around him were not paying attention, he forcefully pulled away the hand that was around his shoulder, his face pale, and hurriedly threw himself into Lian Shuo's arms.
Like a kitten fleeing from a pack of wolves, it suddenly threw itself into the arms where it thought it was safe and buried its furry head in them.
The little guy who pounced on him had a fragrance on his body, and his soft body made people subconsciously tighten their arms.
Lian Shuo lowered his eyes and looked at the little boy who was only as tall as his chest. He didn't say anything, but just hugged the boy tightly, not giving him any chance to escape.
The hard chest hurt Wu Lan's face, but he didn't dare to let go. He wrapped his arms around the other's thin waist, and his fingertips that were holding the clothes trembled slightly.
He didn't dare to look up at people, for fear that Lian Shuo would slap him away.
Wu Lan's action stunned everyone, especially the three people on the terrace, whose eyes suddenly became gloomy.
Fei Sheng's arms felt empty, and his heart felt hollow.
He raised his long legs and was about to take the person back, but unexpectedly, Yan Chiheng next to him was faster than him, and even Si Qinyu walked over.
But before they could get close, two tall bodyguards in black suits stood in front of them, looking serious and alert.
Two bodyguards also appeared behind Lian Shuo.
Their movements attracted a lot of attention. All of them were curious about the relationship between these people, but more of their attention was focused on the young man held by the young master of the Lian family.
The scene of the young man winning the prize just now was remembered by many people.
Wu Lan didn't know that there were so many people staring at them in the venue. When those eyes fell on her, she felt ashamed as if she was stripped naked.
After the warning sound in his head stopped, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and didn't want to continue hugging Lian Shuo in front of so many people.
But as soon as he let go, Lian Shuo lifted his butt with one hand, and the whole person was lifted into the air and completely picked up.
The warmth of the palm passed through the pants and reached her skin. Before Wu Lan could react, she heard Lian Shuo's deep voice ringing in her ears:
"It seems Xiaolan still likes to stay by my side."
Lian Shuo raised his eyes with disdain and glanced at the three people who were stopped by the bodyguards. He said in a cold and slow voice: "It doesn't matter what my identity is."
Too lazy to talk any more nonsense with them, Lian Shuo hugged Wu Lan and turned to leave.
Wu Lan wanted to look up and behind him, but Lian Shuo held him back, preventing him from making eye contact with the three men behind him.
It was not until she was carried into the car that Wu Lan was able to lift her head.
Lian Shuo had messed up her hair, the ahoge on top of her head was sticking up, and her snow-white face was also covered in a pink hue.
His eyes moved around, looking around at the unfamiliar rear compartment, and then curiously watched Lian Shuo press a button, and a baffle rose, separating the space inside the compartment.
In the closed environment, there were only two breathing sounds.
Wu Lan's head, which was looking around everywhere, was straightened up and her sight met Lian Shuo's bottomless eyes. Even her body was controlled and she was not allowed to move anymore.
He sat astride Lian Shuo with his legs spread apart. The other's large palm was supporting his face, and the other hand was on his back.
The hand on her back was quite strong, and although it didn't seem like she was using much strength, Wu Lan couldn't push the person away.
Because they were so close, their breathing seemed to be entangled, like two hot balls of fire, and their body temperature gradually rose.
The air conditioner was on in the car, but our skin pressed against each other was too hot. My back seemed to be sweating, and my clothes were sticking to my body, which was uncomfortable.
Wu Lan hates this feeling.
His eyebrows furrowed, he placed his hands on Lian Shuo's chest, trying to push him away, but he remained motionless.
Just when he was feeling discouraged, Lian Shuo took out a wet tissue from somewhere, lifted his chin and started wiping it upwards.
The cheeks and forehead are the key points of wiping, and I wiped back and forth many times.
Wu Lan's skin is very tender. When it is touched or pinched, it will immediately turn red and it takes a long time to fade away.
Now, after being rubbed back and forth like this, her skin had already turned red. Combined with her watery eyes, she gave the impression of someone who had been severely bullied.
Wu Lan was rubbed like a cat with wet fur. He opened his big round almond eyes with a look of confusion and puzzlement.
Lian Shuo almost covered half of Wu Lan's face with one hand. He threw away the wet tissue, pinched her soft and tender cheeks with his fingertips, and made her small, plump lips pout.
"Clean."
The three words that suddenly came out made Wu Lan even more confused. He wanted to speak, but his forced pouting mouth made it difficult for him to speak.
As soon as his mouth opened, the rough tip of his thumb pressed down on his lower lip, and then the slender index and middle fingers slowly reached into his mouth.
His tongue was pressed by two fingers, making it even more difficult to speak.
"Let me see if there's been any kissing inside."
Lian Shuo spoke very slowly, but his voice sent a chill down one's back. Wu Lan was so frightened that she immediately closed her mouth tightly, appearing as if she was sucking Lian Shuo's fingers.
The tongue flesh under the fingertip was wet and soft, a small piece, and she licked his finger with the tip of her tongue as if to please him.
The protruding Adam's apple rolled up and down, and Lian Shuo's eyes became darker.
He coaxed her gently, "Be good and open your mouth."
Wu Lan is not stupid. This kind of deceptive rhetoric that is obviously a trap can only fool stupid children and is useless to a smart person like him.
He didn't open his mouth, but simply used the tip of his tongue to push the two fingers out.
But he has no experience at all.
He pushed several times without any effect, and his tongue was tired. In the end, two rough fingers pinched his tongue and scraped it across the surface of his tongue in an ambiguous way.
The sensitive upper palate became itchy after being touched twice, and the lips soaked with saliva were forced to part, revealing the wet red inside completely in front of Lian Shuo.
The mouth was very red and wet inside, but the tongue was not swollen and the delicate inner wall showed no signs of being bullied.
I was pretty well behaved and wasn't messed around with by those men.
"If you play with my mouth again, I'll ignore you."
Seeing Lian Shuo's ugly expression gradually fade away, Wu Lan felt that he could be tough again and said what he thought was the most powerful threat:
"I won't let you kiss me anymore!"
"If you don't give me a kiss, who will you give it to?"
Lian Shuo moved closer, his tall nose brushed against Wu Lan's nose, and his thin lips landed directly on the lip bead that was raised like a red fruit.
As if as a punishment, he bit his lower lip lightly with his sharp teeth, and immediately the pain-fearing little guy started to whimper.
The little mouth opened, and the man's thick tongue naturally stretched in, hooking up the soft scarlet flesh that had been played with until it was wet, and skillfully licked all the sweet water in Wu Lan's mouth.
Lian Shuo licked and sucked the soft lips, and this time she was really bullied, and the inside of her mouth was red.
The ambiguous sound of water splashing echoed throughout the carriage. If Wu Lan hadn't known that no one else could hear it, her face would have turned as red as a tomato.
The scenery outside the car window kept moving, and the car's excellent stability made people unaware that they were driving.
The feeling of being suffocated by the kiss soon appeared. When Wu Lan was finally able to breathe normally, he lay weakly in Lian Shuo's arms, exhaling little by little.
The hand that touched the back of the head was broad, and the palm slid down to the neck, gently pinching the flesh there, causing the ticklish little creature to shiver.
The car stopped at some point.
When Wu Lan raised her head from Lian Shuo's arms, she found that his apartment was outside the car window, and Lian Shuo did not let go.
"I can't go back now, so go home first."
Lian Shuo lifted Wu Lan's chin and looked at her little mouth, which was red from his kiss, for a long time, then touched the blush on Wu Lan's cheek that had not yet faded.
Although she clearly told him to go home, Wu Lan found that the hand around his waist had not loosened, and even hugged him tighter.
"I'm getting off the bus."
The meaning was to let Lian Shuo let go, but Lian Shuo seemed not to understand and kissed him on both cheeks and forehead before opening the car door.
Wu Lan was about to leave, but was caught again.
"Will you kiss me again in the future?"
Hearing this, Wu Lan tilted his head, looking thoughtful, which made Lian Shuo raise his eyebrows and his eyes darken.
Just when he was thinking about taking the man back to Lian's house, the pretty boy with a red face suddenly came over and said to him, "If you behave well, I'll let you kiss me."
While Lian Shuo was distracted, Wu Lan slipped away without looking back.
He originally planned to go home directly, but then he remembered that he hadn't picked up a package, so he changed direction and walked towards the package storage cabinet.
Halfway through, Wu Lan heard 2720 suddenly ask, "...What do you mean by good performance?"
【It refers to the patience value. 】
He paused, then pulled out his phone and continued, "If the Patience Value can continue to rise safely, it's a good performance. If a warning is issued like today, it's a poor performance."
After saying that, he gave an expression that said, "I'm very smart, right?", his eyes shining and his chin raised.
【......】
2720 held it in for a long time before finally coming up with three words: "How clever."
After being praised, Wu Lan's steps became lighter.
He walked to the express cabinet, skillfully scanned the QR code on the display screen, waited for the cabinet to open, took the package, turned around and walked home.
Halfway through the walk, he saw a familiar figure in front of him.
At this time, the other party also turned around.
Qi Yanshan smiled and greeted: "What a coincidence."
Before Wu Lan could reply, 2720 tutted his words and imitated Qi Yanshan's tone of voice in a sarcastic tone, saying:
【What a coincidence.】
