Chapter 33

The next second, Lan Xiao held the girl’s hand and rushed out of the school.

“You must know where they are, right?”

The girl nodded hesitantly with a confused look in her eyes.

“What’s your name?”

“I... I’m Han Yun...” the girl answered honestly.

Han Yun? A cold light flashed in Lan Xiao’s eyes and she sneered inwardly.

In her previous life, Han Yun had become Lou Yucheng’s most capable assistant.

If nothing fishy had been going on between Han Yun and Lou Yucheng, she would rather die than believe it!

Moreover, she was sure that in her previous life, Lan Xingbo’s death must also have had something to do with Han Yun.

Back then, Lan Xingbo had fallen out with the Lan family because of Han Yun. Lan Shanhua had been so furious that it had taken a toll on his body, and he started to suffer from serious diseases. An originally healthy man had gradually gotten ill and become weak day by day.

Both of Lan Shanhua’s two children were troublesome. In her previous life, they had both caused their father so much trouble.

But now that she could see a lot of things clearly, Lan Xiao realized that it was all a conspiracy against her and the Lan family.

Lou Yucheng had gathered all the resources he could use to push her and the Lan family into hell step by step.

What a horrible man!

He was so cunning and ill-intentioned.

At the Yue Shan Resort in Ling City,

a grand raw jadeite exhibition was being held. A group of businessmen who traded in raw jadeite had generously booked the whole Yue Shan Resort for the exhibition. Many rich people in Ling City, as well as stone-gambling consultants from reputed jewelry enterprises, were invited.

When Han Yun and Lan Xiao were about to enter the venue, Han Yun suddenly grabbed Lan Xiao’s arm and asked in a low voice, “Do you have any cash or card with you? Are you sure you can save Xingbo without telling your family about it? We can’t afford to offend them, and Xingbo owes them so much money. If you break in without adequate preparation, not only won’t you be able to save him, but you might also die with him...”

Lan Xiao blinked twice, staring at the sincere worry and concern on Han Yun’s face.

If she hadn’t seen Han Yun’s true colors in her previous life, she would have been deceived by her now.

She cursed all these people inwardly for being so good at acting.

“Are those guy fierce? Would they hit women?” she asked nervously, grabbing Han Yun’s sleeve and pretending to be scared.

If Han Yun liked acting, then Lan Xiao would act with her to the end... She would not back down.

A trace of ridicule and contempt flashed through Han Yun’s eyes, but it was gone as soon as it appeared. She then patted the back of Lan Xiao’s hand and comforted her in a low voice. “Don’t be afraid. As long as you can pay the money back, they won’t do anything to us.”

“Okay, I trust you...” Lan Xiao pursed her lips and looked around uneasily.

There were many luxury cars parked at the entrance of the venue. Stunning men and women dressed in famous global brands stepped out of those cars, followed by one or two bodyguards who were carrying silver boxes. They passed the invitation card to the bouncers and entered the venue without any issues.

All those people looked like they could be gang leaders—obscenely rich and powerful.

After thinking for a while, Lan Xiao asked, “There should be stacks of money in the boxes, right?”

Although she was born into a wealthy family, this was the first time that she had seen someone carrying so much money swaggering around so brazenly.

However, all the people here were carrying money just like this, so Lan Xiao was far from surprised.

Besides, the security of the venue was top-notch. There was no way there would be a robbery here.

Lan Xiao and Han Yun didn’t submit the invitation card, but entered the venue smoothly.

Inside, the venue was decorated with artificial hills and small waterfalls. The scenery was very beautiful, and the decor was exquisite. Every inch of the venue showed good taste.

After all, the attendants were all rich people. If the venue was not high-profile, how could it match their powerful status?
