Li Lanfeng's face turned pale after getting injured twice in a row. He leaned against the wall weakly and looked at Ling Lan with a bitter and complicated expression.
Li Lanfeng, who had regained his rationality and calmed down, fully displayed his monstrous intelligence. Soon, he connected all the clues together and roughly guessed the truth behind his Phoenix Thrall Fate.
He always thought that he was on the path of defying the heavens and changing his fate. However, he didn't expect to be played by fate. He wanted to stay away from his king but in reality, he was using all sorts of methods to get closer to his king.
Li Lanfeng knew that if there was anyone in this world who could sit on the throne of the king, it would be Ling Lan. The totem of the Ling family was the phoenix. The king that the Phoenix Thrall Fate corresponded to was obviously Ling Lan.
It was funny that he didn't want to think about such an obvious hint in the past. It wasn't that he didn't feel it but he decisively rejected it because he believed that Ling Lan would never force him.
Then, the question was … if Ling Lan wouldn't force him, why did he have the Phoenix Thrall Fate?
Li Lanfeng was very sure that Ling Lan didn't covet his face at all. It was because Ling Lan didn't like men. He was a straight man. Li Lanfeng didn't forget that Ling Lan had two beautiful fiancées — Luo Chao and Han Xuya.
In reality, Ling Lan really doted on them. He didn't care about getting injured so that his fiancées could successfully advance to the next level. Even he, a bystander, couldn't help but be jealous of this sincerity. He wanted to monopolize this good thing …
Monopolize?
Li Lanfeng's body suddenly trembled violently. He hugged his head with both hands and curled up.
"Hahahaha …" Li Lanfeng laughed uncontrollably. He suddenly closed his domain and allowed Ling Lan's suppression to torture his body.
Pfft ~! The terrifying pressure directly pressed Li Lanfeng to the ground. Li Lanfeng spat out a mouthful of blood. Although he was seriously injured, Li Lanfeng's face revealed a crazy and sickly smile. It was as if the pain in his body made him feel incomparable pleasure.
"Li Mulan, oh Li Mulan, it turns out that you weren't forced into the Phoenix Thrall Fate. It was your own choice … It's funny that I carried this Phoenix Thrall Fate and tortured myself for more than twenty years. In the end, you're the one who's sick.
Li Lanfeng laughed as he spat out blood. After Li Lanfeng had completely given up on resisting, Ling Lan's Emperor level pressure began to cut into his body. Very quickly, Li Lanfeng was covered in blood … However, his originally terrifying appearance, under his extremely devilish appearance and that crazy and sickly smile, actually had a kind of suffocating beauty.
At this moment, Li Lanfeng already understood his own heart. He didn't know when he had actually become attached to Ling Lan. That was why he wasn't satisfied. That was why he wanted to suppress everyone and become the one and only existence in Ling Lan's heart.
This existence wasn't the so-called confidant, the so-called partner, or the so-called brother. It was the one and only cinnabar in the other's heart that could never be erased.
"Li Mulan, you're too ugly." Two lines of tears fell from Li Lanfeng's eyes and soaked his temples. With such dirty thoughts, how could he face Ling Lan anymore? Since that was the case, he might as well die.
Li Lanfeng slowly closed his eyes and silently waited for the arrival of his final death. Perhaps, if he died like this, he could still leave an indelible mark in Ling Lan's heart. After all, he had died in his hands.
In the end, he was still so despicable. He still didn't want Ling Lan to forget about him. He wanted to make sure that Ling Lan would remember him even in death.
Li Lanfeng thought back to how he had behaved in front of Ling Lan all these years. A hint of a smile appeared on his face. From the start, he had always been this despicable and shameless.
Was he weak? No, if he was weak, he wouldn't have become Li Lanfeng. His younger cousin Li Shiyu wouldn't have walked the path of a military doctor like he had hoped … He just used his external weakness to make the Li family do what he wanted unknowingly.
The Li family's scheming, ruthlessness, selfishness, and fighting for power were all deep-rooted bad habits that Li Shiyu and Li Yingjie didn't inherit. However, he embodied all of them. Even when Li Shiyu was sincere to him, he didn't show any mercy when he schemed against him. Until now, he only thought about things like guilt when he was bored.
Did he like to cry? No, he hated it the most. However, he knew that Ling Lan couldn't do anything about his tears. That was why he cried more than once. He used this method to achieve his goals time and time again, increasing his importance in Ling Lan's heart.
Was he pretentious? Maybe. He had been in disguise for too long. Even he had forgotten whether this pretentiousness was his true nature. He would reveal this in front of Ling Lan from time to time because he knew that the crying child would get the most attention.
Ling Lan had too many underlings. If he didn't do something to make Ling Lan remember him, he would disappear from the public and become one of the underlings. This was something he would never allow.
Now that he thought about it, every action he took in front of Ling Lan had a motive. Even when he was alone with Ling Lan, he took off his mask and revealed his true face. It was also a method to increase his importance and to tell Ling Lan that he was unique.
Unique. So he had been doing these things subconsciously since a long time ago. How despicable. How shameless.
Luckily, he understood now. He didn't let Ling Lan see through his intentions and completely despise him.
Li Lanfeng felt that his tears today were like a broken dam. They flowed down endlessly. He didn't cry on purpose like in the past. This time, he couldn't control his tears.
Li Lanfeng couldn't feel the pain in his body anymore. He only felt that his soul was floating … Was this the feeling of death?
Forget it. Since he was going to die, he might as well let him cry to his heart's content.
"Bastard, what are you doing?" An exasperated shout rang in his ears.
Then, something seemed to be stuffed into his mouth. A cool liquid flowed down his throat.
So, he wasn't dead yet!
This was Li Lanfeng's last thought.
Ling Lan opened her eyes and saw a shocking scene. Li Lanfeng was lying at the door covered in blood. She hurriedly pulled Li Lanfeng over. She saw the tears flowing from the corners of Li Lanfeng's eyes. He had given up all resistance. She was furious. With an angry shout, she quickly poured a bottle of medicine into his mouth. She dragged Li Lanfeng, who was about to die, back from the gates of hell.
Seeing that Li Lanfeng was alive, Ling Lan heaved a sigh of relief. "What a worrisome guy."
Although Li Lanfeng was cunning, it was easy for him to go to extremes because of his intelligence. She didn't know what happened when she advanced to the imperial rank that made this guy give up escaping and wait for death silently.
Could it be that he misunderstood when she said that she would protect him? So he risked his life to stay here? Ling Lan felt her head hurt. She seemed to have discovered the problem of Li Lanfeng's stubbornness.
Why did this guy have so many problems? He had more problems than all of her little brothers and sisters combined.
