Chapter 222: Chapter 222 Never Thought He Would Travel Thousands of Miles to Find Her Chapter 222: Chapter 222 Never Thought He Would Travel Thousands of Miles to Find Her How is Lan Yi doing now?

Actually, Xu Guannan doesn’t know much either, because ever since that second young lady returned, Lan Cuo has kept her out of the public eye.

The only piece of news, it seems, is about her marriage to that police chief’s stupid son.

It’s still going on.

“What did you say? She’s still going to marry that idiot?”

With those words, the handsome face of the man sitting in the car suddenly grew grim, and even the temperature seemed to drop significantly.

Xu Guannan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked toward the vice president who was driving.

The vice president swallowed hard.

“Yes… It’s like this, five years ago the real Lan Yi ran away from her wedding, which enraged the local police chief. So, for these years, he’s been causing trouble for the Tulan Society. Now that Lan Cuo has finally found his daughter, of course, he wants to marry her off again to appease this man’s anger,” the vice president explained bravely.

Xu Guannan, upon hearing this, immediately flashed a sharp look in his eyes and turned to the man sitting behind him.

“President, does this mean that the madam hasn’t yet revealed her true identity here? Is she still wearing Lan Yi’s face-changing mask?”

“…”

Saying this only made things worse.

At the mention of it, the man in the back looked even more sullen and fierce.

Because Yin Hehe not taking off that mask meant that in her heart, she feared Sheng Siyuan far more than Lan Cuo!

She would rather be trapped here.

Than be discovered by him, Sheng Siyuan.

The atmosphere in the car was terrifyingly silent.

Soon, the car arrived in the downtown area, and Xu Guannan planned to head to the hotel first.

But the man in the back, upon seeing this, suddenly commanded in a cold voice, “Go to the Tulan Society!”

“What?”

The two in front both broke out in a cold sweat.

The Tulan Society?

Going there so directly? That’s the home turf of Southeast Asia’s number one gang, and they were just going to show up unannounced?

Xu Guannan’s face turned pale.

“President, this isn’t our territory after all. Shouldn’t we make arrangements first?”

“Yes, yes,” the vice president also quickly nodded in agreement.

“Boss Sheng, everyone in the Tulan Society is a desperado. If we barge in rashly, it might be dangerous.”

“Afraid of what?”

Unexpectedly, the man replied with an air of composure.

“When we get there, just tell the security at the door that the president of Shengshi Group has arrived. They will naturally let us in.”

“!!!!!”

No one dared to make a sound after that.

Because the president’s audacity had surpassed their imaginations, and they had no idea how to respond.

The car headed in the direction of the Tulan Society.

In just about twenty minutes, an expansive manor with a commanding view appeared in front of everyone, a massive group of buildings covering the entire mountaintop, now clearly in sight.

This was the first base of Southeast Asia’s dread-inspiring underworld.

Sheng Siyuan looked out at it indifferently from inside the car.

“Seems like the black market business is still more profitable.”

“What?”

The two nervously focusing on the road ahead were startled by the casual remark from the formidable boss, and immediately turned their heads.

Seeing their reaction, Sheng Siyuan then clarified nonchalantly, “Just talking.”

“…”

Just talking?

He was the prominent leader of the Asian business community; such thoughts, if serious, would be quite fearsome.

Several people finally arrived at the main entrance.

“Who goes there?”

As expected, different from a proper company, the moment a strange vehicle approached, someone immediately came out with a gun.

That style, Xu Guannan recognized at a glance as the highest-end weaponry of the time!

“Gentlemen, please don’t misunderstand, inside the car is the president of the Shengshi Group, who has come to discuss some business with Mr. Lan.”

Xu Guannan exited the car, hands raised, and declared his identity.

Shengshi Group?

As soon as these words were spoken, the two men were stunned.

Wasn’t that the largest and most prominent business group in the Asian business community? Why would they suddenly come to meet their boss? The two groups were entirely on different paths.

They looked towards the inside of the car.

Just at that moment, Sheng Siyuan inside the car also looked over and raised his hand to greet them from inside.

“…Quick, go and inform the butler to come over.”

The two men finally didn’t dare to underestimate the situation.

Before long, as Xu Guannan stood next to the car, he saw an elderly Southeast Asian man jogging over and greeting them from afar.

“What a rare visitor, I never expected Mr. Sheng to come to our little place, we’re truly honored.”

The butler’s attitude was unexpectedly warm.

Xu Guannan, seeing this, finally felt relief, understanding now that there really was a difference between people, like just now when the boss, with great composure, had them come here.

Such treatment would never occur to Xu Guannan.

“Mr. Lan jests,” said Sheng Siyuan.

Sheng Siyuan also got out of the car at this point.

Under a swath of pale golden twilight, his tall figure stepped out from the car, his handsome features, and the dignified elegance that naturally emanated from him, forced one to avert their gaze.

The butler also felt this overwhelming presence.

“No, no, no, it’s absolutely an honor for Mr. Sheng to visit Tulan Society. However, Mr. Sheng, our society head is currently not at home, would you be able to wait here a bit?”

The butler said while bowing and nodding.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Siyuan’s sharp and distinct brows immediately raised.

“Arriving at such an inopportune time, where has your society head gone? When will he be back?”

“He left yesterday with our second young miss to run some errands in the capital and said he’ll be back tonight. If Mr. Sheng is willing to wait, then I will arrange accommodations for you right away,” the butler candidly shared.

Of course, what he didn’t realize was that the man before him had come for the second young miss he mentioned.

Sheng Siyuan’s breathing became a bit unstable.

“What errands are they running? Why would he take the second young miss with him?”

“This…”

“…It’s like this, old sir, our president is in a hurry to discuss business with your society head, and his schedule is rather tight, so that’s why he’s asking these questions,” Xu Guannan interjected at the critical moment, smoothly mediating.

Only then did the butler dispel his doubts.

A few minutes later, the group declined the butler’s arrangement and drove towards the hotel, Xu Guannan looked back at the man whose entire expression seemed shrouded in the air of an impending storm.

He bowed his head to start investigating this matter.

“President, this matter, it does remind me of some rumors that circulated in the Tulan Society yesterday morning,” suddenly, the assistant driving the car remembered something.

Upon hearing this, Xu Guannan immediately looked towards him.

“What rumors?”

“It was said that yesterday morning, suddenly, news spread that Lan Cuo had the newly returned second daughter join him at the breakfast table. You may not know, but here, breakfast is a very solemn affair, akin to our dinners. For someone of Lan Cuo’s status, ordinary people simply don’t have that privilege!” the assistant recounted carefully.

Xu Guannan was stunned for a moment, then promptly asked, “And then?”

“After that, news came out suggesting Lan Cuo might be appointing this second daughter as the heir of Tulan Society. Right after breakfast, he took her to the capital—an area that not even Lan Cuo would go to recklessly.”

“…”
