Butler Xue rushed over when he heard Shi Ye's voice.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Shi Ye was so anxious that he felt dizzy and almost fell down.

He quickly held onto the wall and raised one hand to press on his throbbing temples. "Lanlan is gone. She ran away."

"What?!" Butler Xue's eyes widened in disbelief, "The young lady ran away...ran away?!"

Shi Ye pinched his brows hard, opened his eyes and looked at Butler Xue, his voice weak, "Yes, I can't find her."

Seeing the loneliness and uneasiness in his eyes, Butler Xue was stunned.

He hadn't seen such a helpless look in the young master's eyes for many years.

The last time I saw the young master looking so helpless and uneasy was when he was four years old. His favorite Transformers toy was secretly taken away and destroyed by his other brothers.

Butler Xue quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, Master. The Madam won't run away. Even if she doesn't want you anymore, she won't be willing to give up the Young Master!"

Hearing this, Shi Ye's eyes narrowed, his expression suddenly became sinister, and he gritted his teeth: "What are you talking about?"

"I...I'll go check on the young master's room."

Butler Xue turned around and walked quickly towards Shi Xingran's bedroom.

Shi Ye followed, but his steps were a little shaky.

Although he survived after his body was damaged by the chronic poison, his alcohol tolerance became worse and worse.

I didn’t feel drunk when I just came out of the wine cellar, or maybe it was because I was too anxious. After looking for Gu Jinlan like a headless fly, I suddenly felt dizzy.

He shook his head vigorously and continued to follow Butler Xue.

Butler Xue had finished checking Shi Xingran's room and turned back, looking at Shi Ye and shook his head.

Shi Yejun's face was tense, and he said in a deep voice: "Send someone to look for her immediately! Bring her back to me!"

Butler Xue said quickly, "Not really, really not really, Master, calm down. Maybe the Madam is just out playing with her friends. Let's call and ask first."

Shi Ye: "She just ran away! She doesn't want me anymore!"

"..."Butler Xue felt like he was in a bad mood, neither crying nor laughing.

He felt sorry for his young master, but also thought that his drunken look was a bit funny.

"Master, wait a minute. I'll call the young mistress right away."

"I can't wait! If I wait any longer she'll run away."

"I'd better make a phone call first..."

In the bar, after listening to Yun Luoxi explain the reason why Zhao Shiyun was sent abroad, Gu Jinlan bit the cigarette in his mouth hard.

"I'm not surprised that Zhao Shiyun doesn't want me to go back to the Zhao family, but I didn't expect Fang Yue to still treat me like this after all this!"

She thought Fang Yue didn't dare to provoke her again.

Seeing that Gu Jinlan was very angry, Yun Luoxi said guiltily: "Lanlan, I'm sorry... I thought you would be happier if I told you that the Zhao family didn't want Zhao Shiyun anymore. I just wanted to make you happy, but I didn't expect... I forgot what Fang Yue did, and it would still hurt your heart."

Gu Jinlan laughed quickly, "Stupid, what are you thinking about? I'm not sad, I'm quite happy. Zhao Shiyun not only didn't get what she wanted, but was also driven abroad. Fang Yue also didn't get the money she wanted, I'm really happy. Fang Yue can't hurt my heart at all, I'm just a little angry, they are so hateful."

In fact, she doesn't care at all about what Zhao Shiyun is like.

She had had an idea before. If Zhao Shiyun didn't let her go back to the Zhao family, then she would not do as she wished and would go back to the Zhao family to anger Zhao Shiyun to death.

But after calming down and thinking about it, she realized that there was no need for her to decide her life for an insignificant person.

Yun Luoxi said indignantly: "It's just too abominable! But evil will be punished. Father Zhao has already told my eldest brother that he wants to bankrupt the Zhao family."

Gu Jinlan lowered her eyes slightly, a little surprised, "There is such a thing?"

Yun Luoxi nodded, "Yes, Father Zhao feels sorry for you. He asked me if anyone else has bullied you, and asked me to make a list for him."

Gu Jinlan couldn't help but laugh, "He's quite cute."

Seeing a smile on Gu Jinlan's face, Yun Luoxi quickly struck while the iron was hot, "It's because they love you in their hearts, and they all care about you..."

"Stop!" Gu Jinlan quickly raised his hand to stop Yun Luoxi from continuing, "Let's just have a good drink tonight. Don't be a lobbyist for the Zhao family. I have my own considerations."

Yun Luoxi sighed helplessly, "Well, no matter whether you recognize them or not, the Zhao family will be your strongest backing from now on, and they will not let anyone bully or hurt you anymore."

Gu Jinlan smiled calmly, "Now I am my own strongest backer. I don't need anyone else to protect me. No one can bully or humiliate me."

Yun Luoxi looked at her sadly, her brows furrowed.

It seems that Jingchuan was right. Lanlan has gotten through the most difficult time alone and no longer needs to rely on anyone.

At this time, Gu Jinlan's cell phone on the table lit up.

She glanced at the caller ID on the screen, sneered, and reached out to hang up.

Yun Luoxi asked: "What's wrong?"

Gu Jinlan said: "It was Ye Hongyu who called. They kept calling me this afternoon. I originally thought they wanted to ask me for money, but now it seems that they knew that the Zhao family was going to deal with them, so they wanted to ask me for mercy."

Yun Luoxi frowned, "How can they have the nerve to ask you for help now?"

Gu Jinlan shrugged, "I'm just thick-skinned."

Yun Luoxi asked: "What do you think?"

Gu Jinlan said: "If it is true as you said, that Brother Zhao wants to take action against the Ye family, then I have to talk to Brother Zhao and ask him not to interfere in the affairs between me and the Ye family."

Yun Luoxi was surprised: "Lanlan! They treated you like that, you can't be soft on them anymore, they should be taught a lesson and punished!"

Gu Jinlan said: "I have my own plan. If Brother Zhao takes action, it will disrupt my plan."

"What are your plans?"

"Soon, the Ye family's company will belong to me. It's just the last step. If Brother Zhao makes a move at this time, it will affect my acquisition of Bokai shares. Besides, grandma is very good to me. Bokai is her hard work. It can't fall into the hands of others, but only in my hands."

Yun Luoxi widened her eyes slightly in surprise, and looked at Gu Jinlan with admiration, "Wow~ Lanlan you are amazing! It turns out that you have been doing great things quietly! And you can do this without hurting Grandma Ye. If Bo Kai falls into your hands, she will definitely be willing."

Gu Jinlan smiled slightly, picked up his glass and clinked it with Yun Luoxi.

At this time, her mobile phone screen lit up again.

Thinking it was another call from Ye Hongyu and Fang Yue, Gu Jinlan didn't look at the call. He just reached out and pressed the side button of the phone to hang up, then tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Yun Luoxi held the wine glass with both hands and took a sip, when he suddenly felt the phone in his pocket vibrating.

She took it out and took a look at it, then looked at Gu Jinlan in surprise.

"Brother Ye actually called me! He has never called me before. Did you have a fight?"
