Chapter 574: No Longer Useful
Bai Lan did not respond directly to Su Man's question, but turned away and said to Park Junfeng: "Junfeng, you heard it, Xiaoman didn't want the maid to die."
Pu Junfeng understood and nodded: "I will go now to make them stop and send the person to where he should be sent."
"The punishment that is due must not be less."
"Understood, ma'am."
Park Junfeng walked out the door.
Su Man looked at Bai Lan angrily.
Bai Lan slowly walked towards Su Man and gently placed his hand on Su Man's shoulder. "Okay, I know you feel wronged. I'm not protecting Luo Yan. I will definitely give you justice."
"Okay, then bring Luo Yan here and ask her what's going on. If possible, make her pay for what she did."
"How do you know I won't let her pay the price?" Bai Lan gritted his teeth, then said vaguely:
"Xiao Man, you'd better not go with us tomorrow. Tonight, you'll play a trick with me. Luo Yan wants to harm you, so you'll do what she wants and pretend you've eaten something poisonous. But we found you in time and brought people to wash your stomach and save you. You're still in a coma. Tomorrow, Luo Yan and I will go out, and I promise you that Luo Yan will never come back."
Su Man couldn't believe it. "Are you still planning to use me? Do you still want to get what you want from her?"
"You know, Mom has her reasons."
Bai Lan hardened his heart, stopped looking at Su Man, and walked out of the house quickly, "Eleven, lock the door. Don't let her go out, and don't let anyone in."
Eleven looked at Su Man sympathetically, and finally followed Bai Lan out the door.
The door was closed and Su Man heard the cold sound of the lock being locked.
Su Man looked at the door in despair for a long time, then smiled bitterly.
These days have given her too many illusions, making her mistakenly believe that she is more important to Bai Lan than the deep hatred in Bai Lan's heart.
The next day.
Bai Lan and Luo Yan got in the car together and set off for the mysterious village located on the mountain.
There were three cars in total.
Three thugs and Park Junfeng led the way in a car.
Bai Lan and Luo Yan were in the second car, with the driver and Eleven in the front.
The third car still had five thugs at the rear.
These fighters are not only martial artists, but also drivers, so even if the journey is long, they can take turns driving.
As soon as they got in the car, Luo Yan asked Bai Lan about what happened to Su Man last night:
"Madam, I heard something serious happened last night. Many doctors came to Suman's place. What happened? Is she okay?"
"His life was saved, but he is still lying down. I don't know when he will wake up."
Luo Yan pretended to be surprised and said regretfully: "How could this happen?"
Bai Lan sneered twice, "I also want to ask, why is there always so much chaos? You know, I like peace and quiet, and I hate it most when people stir up trouble on my territory. It would be unlucky if blood was seen."
"I know, that's why I've always been on good terms with Suman."
"Really? Then do you know whose name the maid who poisoned Su Man last night gave out after being tortured?" Bai Lan's beautiful eyes revealed a sharp light, and she stared straight at Luo Yan.
Luo Yan felt a chill down his spine.
Bai Lan probably already figured out that she was the one behind all this...
But what is Bai Lan’s attitude?
If I wanted to do justice for Su Man, I shouldn't have gone to the mountains with her today. I should have confronted her last night.
But if we don’t help Suman get justice, what’s the point of this warning now?
Just as she was feeling doubtful, she heard Bai Lan say, "Luo Yan, it's not that I, as your elder, am using my seniority to pressure you. It's just that you are too impulsive and ruthless in doing things. I can cover for you once or twice, but if something really goes wrong in the future and Su Changhai makes a fuss, I can't protect you."
Bai Lan's tone softened a little, and Luo Yan felt relieved.
She looked guilty, remorseful, and aggrieved.
"I'm sorry, Madam... Su Man wanted to harm me before, and I've been holding a grudge. And then yesterday, she tried to interfere in our business. I got so anxious that I lost my mind... Madam, if you want to hit me or punish me, I'll accept it. I really know I was wrong."
"The incident has already happened. What's the point in pursuing you? You know that I treat Su Man differently from you. You are my capable assistant. My development in the mainland still depends on you."
Bai Lan placed his hand on the back of Luo Yan's hand and pressed it slightly.
Luo Yan understood, her black pupils swirling. "Didn't you ask me last time about the officials who had worked with my father? I've compiled a list. Now that my father has retired, he doesn't need these conveniences anymore. I might as well give it to you, my wife, so that it can continue to shine."
Luo Yan took out a stack of thick envelopes from her bag.
Bai Lan took the envelope, opened the papers inside, glanced at it briefly, and then put the list back calmly.
She was very satisfied.
But he asked, "Does this count as betraying your father?"
"My father looked down on me because I was an illegitimate daughter. He loved his first wife's child more. My wife is different. She truly loves me."
Bai Lan curled her delicate red lips, and the smile in her eyes was slightly cold.
Luo Yan added, "I later received some new information from the Yu family. The eldest sister of the Yu family is actually the operator of many illegal and illicit businesses."
"The eldest sister of the Yu family...Yu Qionghua?"
Luo Yan nodded. "I used to think that this eldest sister had no real abilities, and that Master Yu only handed over the reins of the family to her because she was the eldest legitimate daughter. But I didn't expect that she not only had extensive connections in the business community both at home and abroad, but also had connections with the military and government, acting as a hub in between. My father said that she had a very close relationship with the Minister of Intelligence and Security, and that the Minister would even listen to her advice on major decisions."
"Intelligence and Security Department..."
There was hatred in Bai Lan's eyes, forming a bottomless black vortex. "Okay, I'll remember what you said about Yu Qionghua. Thank you, Luo Yan."
Luo Yan was overjoyed and nodded shyly.
She didn't know that this was the limit of her usefulness.
It was already late at night when we arrived in the mountains.
The group planned to rest for a day and then go to check the "goods" in the back mountain at night.
Luo Yan had no doubts about it,
The next night, I followed Bai Lan and his group and went up the mountain with light luggage.
She was wearing a hiking outfit, a racerback vest, khaki overalls, and cowboy boots, and she looked very stylish.
When we arrived at our destination, we saw a mountain behind the house covered with a bouquet of fiery flowers.
"Our goods are produced here, right? With such a big mountain, it's no wonder that the supply is endless." Luo Yan looked at the mountain behind. The fiery red sea of flowers was like red waves, glowing with strange brilliance under the dark blue moonlight.
Park Junfeng opened the trunk, which contained several backpacks.
Several thugs came forward and took out a backpack from the trunk and put it on their backs.
Park Junfeng and Eleven also took a backpack.
Luo Yan took out the last women's backpack from the trunk and handed it to Luo Yan: "Here are some dry food to prevent you from getting hungry later. You can also carry it."
Luo Yan happily took the backpack and put it on her back, "Thank you, Madam. You are so kind to me."
Bai Lan just smiled and said nothing.
Park Junfeng and Eleven, who were following beside them, looked at Luo Yan at the same time.
There was a trace of emotionless pity in Park Junfeng's eyes.
Eleven, on the other hand, had a hint of sneer in his eyes, mocking Luo Yan, saying that everything she was about to face was her own fault.
