1176 Chapter 1177-a substitute
When Jiao Mengran heard this, her entire face turned pale.
chief Jiang Zhenzhen! she shouted in a trembling voice.
At this moment, her heart seemed to be completely desolate.
Chief Jiang was such an outstanding person, but he actually fell in love with someone he could not get?
Lan Xiao was the person he loved but couldn’t get!
Brother Jiang slowly closed his eyes. After a few seconds, he opened them again.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Brother Jiang glanced at Jiao Mengran and said,”go to bed and lie down.”
Jiao Mengran suddenly recovered from her daze. She took off her shoes in a panic and got on the bed.
She lifted the blanket and wrapped herself tightly in it.
However, she did not know that the tears in her eyes were uncontrollably falling.
She knew clearly that chief Jiang would definitely look for Lan Xiao.
If Lan Xiao was in danger, he would definitely be the one standing in front of him!
Chief Jiang had already given his heart to Lan Xiao.
The funny thing was that even after she found out that they weren’t a real couple, she still harbored such wishful thinking.
She hoped that chief Jiang would fall in love with her one day in the future.
Oh, Yingluo wouldn’t. Chief Jiang’s heart had already been given to Lan Xiao. She would never be able to have it in her life.
Now, she suddenly understood.
Why did chief Jiang suddenly return?
He must have stepped into this dangerous vortex again because of Lan Xiao.
They all said that she was infatuated.
Little did she know that once a man became infatuated …
That was the most fatal!
Jiao Mengran’s heart was secretly in pain.
She had known chief Jiang for so many years, but she couldn’t make brother Jiang fall in love with her.
Perhaps, this was her fate?
She and chief Jiang were destined not to be together!
Fate really loved to tease people.
Brother Jiang adjusted his emotions and slowly opened the door.
The person who knocked on the door was none other than Lou Yucheng.
Brother Jiang had already guessed that Lou Yucheng would come.
Therefore, he was not surprised at all.
Lou Yucheng pursed his lips and smiled. His eyes glanced at the figure lying on the bed.
“Brother Jiang, it’s so lonely at night. Why don’t we have a drink? I don’t think miss LAN would mind, right?”
Brother Jiang naturally did not refuse. He nodded and said, ” “Okay, give me a moment. I’ll change my clothes.”
Brother Jiang didn’t avoid Lou Yucheng. He invited Lou Yucheng into the house.
After that, he took his clothes and went into the bathroom to change.
Lou Yucheng sat on the sofa and glanced at the person on the bed.
“What’s wrong? did you have a fight with brother Jiang? Or is it because of what I said about you being a substitute?”
Jiao Mengran hid under the blanket, not daring to speak.
However, she pretended to be aggrieved and sobbed a few times.
Her entire body couldn’t help but tremble.
Lou Yucheng raised his brows. It seemed like this woman was really feeling wronged?
A hint of disgust flashed past his eyes.
Just because she looked similar to Lan Xiao, she was so pampered and spoiled?
This temper, spoiled by brother Jiang, was not small.
“You should understand that it’s your fortune that you’re somewhat like Lan Xiao,” he continued coldly. Otherwise, with your qualifications, do you think you can get close to brother Jiang, become his woman, and enjoy the glory and wealth that no one else can enjoy? One should learn to be content with what they have.”
Jiao Mengran bit her lip, her sobs growing louder.
Brother Jiang came out of the bathroom at this time.
He changed into a set of light black home clothes.
“Ignore her, she’s just throwing a tantrum. “Let’s get drunk tonight. Let’s go!” Brother Jiang stepped forward and patted Lou Yucheng’s shoulder.
Lou Yucheng nodded and slowly stood up.
When the two of them arrived at the door, they did not expect the woman who had been crying on the bed to throw a pillow at their backs.
Lou Yucheng was instantly enraged. He turned around and scolded Jiao Mengran.
“Who Do You Think You Are? You’re just Lan Xiao’s substitute, how dare you act so arrogantly in front of me?”
Jiao Mengran’s body trembled slightly, and her entire body curled up into a ball.
Brother Jiang’s eyes flickered. He put his arm around Lou Yucheng’s shoulder and said, ” it’s fine. She was angry at me. I’m used to her temper.
“Brother Jiang, you have to understand that once we join forces, Lan Xiao will be your woman sooner or later. As for this substitute, you can send him back to where you found him. “Don’t let Lan Xiao be sad when the time comes,” Lou Yucheng suggested in a cold voice.
No one could replace Lan Xiao.
He would not allow anyone to use a substitute to insult Lan Xiao!
Even though he hated her to the core!
However, he just couldn’t bear the way others treated Lan Xiao.
Brother Jiang pushed Lou Yucheng out of the room and slammed the door shut.
“Yes, I won’t let Lan Xiao suffer.”
The anger in Lou Yucheng’s heart dissipated a little.
He brought brother Jiang to the third floor, where he lived.
When they arrived, Leng fan was already waiting for them.
Brother Jiang’s eyes flickered. He knew that he might not be able to get away tonight.
However, if he could stall these two people and buy more time for Lan Xiao, it would be a good opportunity for them to let down their guard.
—
Lan Xiao’s body was agile like a ghost. He left the room and jumped up to the third floor.
She was dressed in black, completely blending into the night.
Her body was extremely soft. She was like a bat as she stuck close to the wall and climbed up to the fourth floor.
She moved quickly and climbed to the fourth-floor stairway in no time.
There was no light in the entire corridor, and no one was patrolling to check the situation.
She heaved a long sigh of relief and slowly stood up.
She patted the dust off her body and stood up with the support of the wall.
She scanned her surroundings.
The entire corridor was in complete darkness!
Lan Xiao straightened up and didn’t stop on the fourth floor. He immediately climbed up to the fifth floor.
The fifth floor was the same as the fourth floor. It was pitch black, and there was no light at all.
However, Lan Xiao didn’t act rashly. She knew clearly that all this was just an illusion to numb the enemy!
Lan Xiao placed his finger on his forehead.
She activated her x-ray vision.
In the next moment, her eyes were as bright as day in the dark night.
There were no patrols or guards on the fifth floor.
But just as Jiao Mengran said, the entire floor was set up with mechanisms.
Once this kind of mechanism was triggered, there was a 90% chance of death.
Lan Xiao carefully stepped into the corridor, slowly avoiding the switches that touched the forbidden areas.
Every time she arrived at the door of a room, she would stop and check if there was anyone in the room.
He went to four rooms in a row, but all of them were empty.
Until the scene in the fifth room made her blood flow backward.
What she saw was a sea of blood.
A person covered in blood was lying on the ground, motionless!
Lan Xiao didn’t see the person’s face clearly. She was so shocked that her eyes trembled. She didn’t have time to think and hurriedly raised her hand to push the door open.
