In the storage room on the third floor, the atmosphere was stiff. Lan Yanxi looked at her repulsive Third Uncle and found it hard to believe that one day, he would point a knife at her and even treat her as a prisoner with his hands and feet tied up.
He kept looking at his watch as if he was waiting for help. But he was clearly a criminal, who could save him?
Lan Yanxi slowly calmed down as she looked at his anxious expression. She closed her eyes, waiting for something.
The last one to arrive was not Lan Bai, but a police car.
The sound of a siren came from afar. Lan Yanxi, who had her eyes closed, suddenly opened them.
Lan Chen was scared to the point that his face turned pale and his body trembled. He shouted angrily: "Why would there be a police car coming over? Who called the police? Your people? "
Lan Chen immediately pointed the knife at Lan Yanxi as if she deserved to die a thousand deaths.
Lan Yanxi mocked, "Even if my men called the police, they shouldn"t have left so soon. It hasn"t even been ten minutes."
Lan Chen"s panicked expression looked like he had lost his mind. He stared out of the window and asked, "Then who called the police?"
Lan Yanxi immediately said to him, "Third uncle, we are family, we shouldn"t have reached this state. If the police came upstairs and saw me tied up by you, he would definitely take you away as a prisoner. Hurry up and untie the rope."
"Who called the police?" Lan Chen roared at her, as if he was about to lose his mind.
Lan Yanxi sneered and a.n.a.lyzed calmly, "What do you think? I think it"s the Second Uncle, he probably wants to put us all to death. "
"It can"t be his. Why would he do that?" Lan Chen"s expression suddenly froze.
"He hates me, and he probably hates you." The reason Lan Yanxizhi was so calm was probably because she understood her Third Uncle. His heart was not as ruthless as Second Uncle"s, he had never been someone who knew how to make decisions.
"He hates me?" Lan Chen"s face looked as if he was slapped in the face.
Just then, the police came ru
ing up the stairs. Lan Yanxi immediately became anxious, "Third uncle, don"t you think for yourself, and for your son? Neither of us has reached the point where we have no other choice but to let each other die. "
Lan Chen"s face turned paler and paler. In the last few seconds, he turned around and walked towards Lan Yanxi, quickly cutting off the rope that bound her hands and feet. Then, he threw the knife in his hand into the cabinet beside him.
"Yanxi, I"m sorry. Third Uncle is too stupid." Lan Chen finally came to his senses.
At this moment, the police stood at the door, and Lan Bai appeared together with the police.
Lan Bai was downstairs earlier. When he saw Lan Yanxi"s bodyguard standing downstairs with an anxious expression, he guessed that something amazing must have happened upstairs.
If he was caught red-handed, the idiot Third Brother wouldn"t be able to argue.
"Second brother?" Seeing that it was Lan Bai who led the police here, Lan Chen"s face changed drastically.
Lan Bai thought he would see Lan Chen holding a knife against Lan Yanxi"s neck, but he didn"t expect him to do nothing. It was as if he was discussing the arrangement of the items inside with Lan Yanxi and didn"t create a threatening scene.
Lan Bai"s expression changed again and again.
"Mr. Lan, what"s going on? Didn"t you say that your Third Brother had gone insane and might cause harm?" One of the police officers standing nearby expressed his displeasure. After all, it was a matter of attrition of the police force.
Lan Bai was speechless.
Lan Chen suddenly flew into a rage and rushed forward. He grabbed onto Lan Bai"s lapel: "Who are you talking about that has abnormal mental state? Who are you talking about? I think you"re the one who"s sick. "
"Third Brother, what are you doing? I was doing it for your own good. I was afraid that you would hurt someone. " Lan Bai tried his best to explain, but unfortunately, his plan failed.
He glared hatefully at Lan Yanxi, who was being protected by her bodyguard.
The man leading the police also realized Lan Yanxi"s ident.i.ty. He hurried forward and said apologetically, "I didn"t expect you to be here too. Are you hurt?"
Lan Yanxi was just making a false alarm. Amidst her anger and grief, she ultimately chose to believe in her family"s feelings and humanity. She believed that Third Uncle would definitely not truly hurt her.
"I"m fine, but someone is plotting to harm me. I hope the police can help investigate." Lan Yanxi stared fearlessly at Lan Bai. This time, she really wouldn"t show mercy.
"Madam means that someone wants to hurt you. Who is it?" The police chief asked with a surprised look on his face.
Lan Yanxi stretched out her hand and pointed at Lan Bai: "That"s him. My Third Uncle can testify."
Lan Chen was forcefully pulled away from Lan Bai by the two male police, but he still wanted to eat Lan Bai. He didn"t expect his trusting second brother would betray him in such a way.
"Yes, I can testify. He... "He wanted to hurt Lan Yanxi. No, he"s the criminal. He killed my big brother. I have proof. I can prove it." Lan Chen was not in his right mind at the moment, pointing at Liu Haoran"s accusation.
Lan Yanxi originally only wanted the police to frame Lan Bai, but when she heard her Third Uncle"s words, her body shook and she almost lost her balance. Fortunately, the big brother bodyguard next to her reached out his hand to support her, then he saw that her face was pale, without a trace of blood, as if she had received a huge blow.
"What did you say?" Lan Yanxi walked in front of Lan Chen and bit her lips. She stared at him and asked, "What did you say just now?"
When Lan Chen saw her questioning him, a trace of fear flashed past his eyes. Lan Bai had already shouted angrily: "Third Brother, don"t speak nonsense. I admit that I did frame you, but I have definitely never killed anyone."
Lan Yanxi turned around and roared at Lan Bai, "Shut up!"
Just now, he was too angry, which was why he blurted out what happened all those years ago. But now, Lan Yanxi"s eyes were staring at him with a hint of authority, as if if if he didn"t want to explain himself, no one could think of getting away with it today.
"My big brother pla
ed this. This is absolutely true." Lan Chen didn"t want to hide it anymore.
"He"s lying. Lan Yanxi, you can"t believe his lies. He"s wrongly accusing me. My big brother"s death was an accident." Lan Bai didn"t expect Lan Chen to bite back at him at this moment. His calculations were indeed wrong.
It"s not an accident, it"s you! There"s a recording of your conversation on your big brother"s phone, and the recording has been recorded. You"ve threatened your big brother, saying that if he leveled the accounts, you would kill him. Before his death, he had a notebook in his pocket, and it said that you had made a large sum of money to divert the company"s funds. Lan Chen explained the whole thing in detail, and Lan Bai"s face was ashen.
At that moment, Lan Yanxi suddenly fainted.
The bodyguards were so scared that their scalps went numb. They quickly and cautiously brought Lan Yanxi to the hospital.
The moment he went downstairs, he saw Ling Mofeng, who had a dark expression, anxiously walk over.
"Mister!" The bodyguards were scared stiff.
Ling Mofeng had specially come here. However, when he saw Lan Yanxi lying unconscious in the arms of a bodyguard, his expression changed and instantly, he wanted to kill someone.
"Miss Lan has been stimulated and fainted. We need to quickly send him to the hospital for a look." The big brother bodyguard said with a trembling voice.
Ling Mofeng carefully and gently carried the unconscious little woman into his embrace. He turned around and saw that Chu Lie had already opened the car door. The black carriage team quickly left the Lan Family realm.
Chu Lie let one of the darts sit in the car and told the whole story.
That bodyguard was clear-headed, so he narrated every single detail from begi
ing to end, and even said Lan Chen"s words at the end.
Ling Mofeng"s expression instantly darkened. He finally understood why Lan Yanxi was so agitated. It was someone who had revealed her father"s death.
"Fool!" The man lowered his head to look at the unconscious woman in his embrace. His anxiety and anger had all turned into worry and heartache.
In the First General Hospital, Lan Yanxi woke up after sleeping for three hours.
When he woke up, he saw a familiar figure sitting beside her, holding her hand tightly.
When Lan Yanxi saw Ling Mofeng, she was first anxious, then she wanted to say something, but the man opened his mouth first.
"I already know what happened. Don"t be excited anymore. Do you know that you will harm your child by doing this?"
Lan Yanxi"s eyes grew hot and her nose ached. How could she not know that she had done something stupid? But if it wasn"t for that stupid thing, she would never have known that her father was framed.
