âNothing. A fly flew in,â Lan Lie said nonchalantly.
âSeventh Brother, how can you let others stay in my residence!â Lan Ningâerâs voice sounded as soon as Lan Lie finished speaking. Then a red-dressed girl ran into the yard angrily and stood in front of Lan Lie to question him.
âMiss Lan Ningâer, are you questioning me?â Lan Lie said with a smile that was not a smile. He might seem easygoing in front of Leng Ruoxue and the others, but in front of others, he was the fully deserving and unquestionable young master of the Lan family.
âI⦠I am Grandpaâs most beloved granddaughter. How can you give my residence to others?â Lan Ningâer said very unpleasantly, but her tone subconsciously became much lower. After all, Lan Lie was the young master of the Lan family and the future patriarch. Even if their grandpa doted on her, she would probably suffer if she angered the heir of the Lan family. So she really didnât dare to be too presumptuous in front of Lan Lie.
âYour residence? How is it yours?â Lan Lie said coldly without even looking up.
âEveryone knows that I live in Ning Xi Garden as long as I come here,â Lan Ningâer said loudly. She looked at the people in the courtyard from the corner of her eyes.?Hmph! Apart from Big Brother Leng, all of them are ugly.?It was too infuriating. Lan Lie actually let these ugly people stay in her Ning Xi Garden. She was so angry!
âSo what? They are my friends. They can stay wherever I allow them to stay. You have no right to ask,â Lan Lie said without giving her face.
âYou⦠Lan Lie, how dare you! Iâm Grandpaâs most beloved granddaughter! Iâm going to tell Grandpa!â Lan Ningâer roared furiously.
âGo ahead! I want to see how Grandpa will react when he finds out that his most beloved granddaughter actually yelled at the heir he chose. Donât think that just because Grandpa dotes on you that you can look down on everyone. Let me tell you. I am the young master of the Lan family. What crime will you be charged with if news of you disrespecting the young master reaches the elders?â Lan Lie said very curiously.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou⦠just you wait!â Lan Ningâer glared fiercely at Lan Lie, turned around, and walked away angrily.
âIt really was a troublesome fly,â Leng Wudi said lightly after Lan Ningâer left.
âYou two bad fellows actually call the number one beauty of the Boundless Heaven Continent a fly. If her admirers know, just their saliva will drown you two,â Lan Ming couldnât help teasing.
âWho dares!â the two of them said in unison. Then they looked at each other and smiled tacitly. Everything was unspoken.
âAlas! Men are trouble!â Leng Ruoxue looked at Freak and suddenly sighed with emotion.
âXueâer!â Freak looked at Leng Ruoxue aggrievedly. How could Xueâer say that about him? He was cruel and merciless to all women except Xueâer. Well, he must have been implicated by these fellows. He looked at Lan Ming and the others. These three fellows now had the potential to be the source of trouble.
âLittle Snowy!â Lan Ming also looked at Leng Ruoxue aggrievedly, thinking,?The real trouble is you two! Why are you maligning me!
âHeâs the one attracting the flies and mosquitoes. Iâm a pure and innocent child.â Lan Lie pointed at Leng Wudi and plucked himself clean without any sense of loyalty.
âSo Young Master Leng stinks? No wonder you attract flies and mosquitoes,â Leng Ruoxue teased with a smile.
ââ¦â Leng Wudiâs face darkened, and he was at a loss for words. He really couldnât understand how a handsome and talented man like him became stinky in Leng Ruoxueâs eyes. Moreover, it wasnât his fault that he attracted flies and mosquitoes! Boohoo⦠He was so wronged!
âYes, he stank a long time ago.â Lan Lie added oil to the fire fearlessly.
âAre you courting death!â Leng Wudiâs anger rose. He stood up and attacked Lan Lieâ¦
âAh, Leng Wudi is so angry that he flew into a rage. Heâs going to kill someone! Help!â Lan Lie dodged Leng Wudiâs attack while shouting loudly and began playing hide-and-seek with him!
Just like that, the two of them engaged in a chase and battle in the gardenâ¦
Leng Ruoxue and the others looked helplessly at Lan Lie and Leng Wudi chasing and fighting like children. They felt that they should return to their rooms and gave the entire garden to them.
After chasing for a long time, the two of them were tired and lay on the grass. But when they looked up, they found that everyone was gone, and only the two of them were left in the huge garden.
âUh! When did they leave? Boohoo⦠My Little Icy!â Lan Lie cried exaggeratedly.
âDonât cry like a woman. Thatâs not your Little Icy,â Leng Wudi said honestly. He was really helpless about his good friendâs daydreaming.
âBoohooâ¦â Lan Lie cried even more sadly.?Damn Little Di Di is rubbing salt on my wounds!
âCry slowly! Iâm going to my room.â Leng Wudi stood up, dusted himself off, and left Ning Xi Garden.
After a while, Lan Lie saw that no one was really paying attention to him. So he stood up, dusted off his clothes, and left.
***
Two days passed quickly.
For the past two days, Leng Ruoxue and the others told Lan Ming that they wanted to cultivate and almost didnât leave their rooms. In fact, they did this to avoid conflict with certain Lan family members. Moreover, they had been staying in Leng Ruoxueâs bracelet for the past two days.
In Leng Ruoxueâs roomâ¦
âHaha! Xueâer, weâre leaving the Lan family estate today,â Leng Qingtian said happily. For the past two days, Lan Ningâer had always been looking for trouble with them. Fortunately, they were in seclusion and didnât see anyone, so Lan Ningâer was stopped by Lan Ming.
âGrandpa, letâs pack up and set off!â Leng Ruoxue said. She had already told Lan Ming that she planned to leave early today, so they decided to set off before dawn.
âLass, weâve already packed up. Actually, thereâs nothing much to pack,â Old Zao said. Their things were all in Lassâs space, and there was almost nothing outside.
