Chu Luo was so incensed by Li Yan’s words that she wanted to pounce on him.
Li Yan stood there and didn’t dodge. “They should be here soon. Are you sure you want to fight me now?”
Li Yan had just finished speaking when he heard a commotion in the backyard.
Li Yan walked to the wheelchair and sat down, gesturing to Chu Luo. “Push me out.”
Those people had already walked into the garden, but their side was blocked by the flower racks and they couldn’t see them.
Chu Luo thought for a while and decided to settle scores with him later. Only then did she reluctantly walk over and push him out of the flower racks.
A large group of people rushed over from the villa.
“Li, are you okay?”
Li Yan’s shirt was now in slight disarray from Chu Luo’s struggle and slapping. Coupled with his hair that had been messed up by the wind when he dodged, he who was already extraordinarily handsome looked even more wild, dangerous, and sexy at this moment.
The group of women screamed crazily in their hearts at his appearance.
Li Yan’s gaze turned sharp and his body instantly exuded a strong murderous aura.
Everyone stopped in their tracks and felt a chill down their spines.
Atlantis felt a headache coming on as he thought about Adeline’s indecent actions in the living room. Seeing Li Yan’s expression, he knew that things weren’t going to be easy today.
Atlantis suddenly wanted to act clueless and asked the obvious, “Li, what’s wrong with you?”
Li Yan looked at him coldly. “Can’t you tell what’s wrong with me?”
Atlantis couldn’t pretend anymore. He asked, “Erm… what did Miss Adeline do? You want to…”
Li Yan interrupted him coldly. “Don’t you know what she did, Mr. Atlantis?”
“I have no idea!” Atlantis didn’t dare to take the blame. He only found out that Adeline was attending his family’s banquet tonight after seeing her without a mask just now.
“Li, I really didn’t know that Miss Adeline would do such a thing. You… she has already been punished. On account that she is Prince Arlan’s cousin, please let her go.”
“Let her go, ha!” Li Yan’s sneer made Atlantis’ heart tighten.
Li Yan said, “Since she dared to drug me like this, she has to be prepared for my revenge.”
“But…”
At this moment, the butler ran over from the villa in a panic and shouted, “Master, Prince Arlan’s men are coming.”
“What?” Atlantis’ expression changed drastically. He turned around and walked into the villa with the butler.
The others looked at each other for a while before quickly following suit.
Chu Luo watched the group leave and smiled at Li Yan. “Looks like you caused quite a commotion tonight.”
“It’s okay.” Li Yan was still as cold as ever.
At this moment, Qin Ming took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to Li Yan. “Master, Prince Arlan is calling you.”
Li Yan took the phone.
Chu Luo looked at him in surprise.
The other party must be very angry. Chu Luo could hear the angry roar from the phone even from where she stood.
However, Li Yan maintained his cold expression and allowed the other party to continue shouting. He couldn’t be bothered to respond at all. It wasn’t until the other party had spoken for a long time that he finally said, “Sure. Then let’s see if you’re faster or I’m faster.”
After saying that, he suddenly smiled coldly. The other party hung up.
Chu Luo looked at Li Yan, who had put away his phone as if nothing had happened, and couldn’t help but ask, “Prince Arlan won’t threaten you anymore, right?”
Li Yan finally responded with an “Mm.”
“Then… Will the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ World Championship be affected?”
Li Yan suddenly turned to look at her and asked in a low voice, “Are you very concerned about this matter?”
Chu Luo stared back at him with her big, innocent eyes.
Li Yan felt a ball of anger in his heart. For some reason, he suddenly told her, “Arlan gave me two choices: marry Adeline or give him 60% of Blazing Glory’s shares in America as compensation.
“Otherwise, he will suppress all of Blazing Glory’s companies in America. When the time comes, the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ World Championship will definitely be affected. What choice do you think I should make?”
When Chu Luo heard this, she frowned in displeasure. “This person is really greedy.”
Li Yan stared at her intently.
Chu Luo looked at him and said, “Neither, of course. Surely you’re not afraid of his threat?”
When Li Yan heard this, the cold aura around him suddenly retracted.
He gestured to Qin Ming. “Let’s go back.”
Qin Ming came over and pushed his wheelchair towards the villa.
Chu Luo glanced at his suit and quickly asked, “You don’t want your coat anymore?”
“I’m obsessed with cleanliness… Help me get rid of it.”
“…”
Chu Luo was silent for a few seconds before she muttered, “Your obsession with cleanliness is really strange. Why didn’t you say that you were obsessed with cleanliness before you put it on me?”
With that, she threw a talisman over, and the clothes quickly burned to ashes.
When the three of them walked to the hall of the villa, Prince Arlan’s men had already taken Adeline away.
The living room was no longer lively. Everyone stood there with complicated expressions.
They were obviously waiting for Li Yan.
When they saw Li Yan coming over, they seemed to heave a sigh of relief.
Atlantis quickly walked over and called out to him, “Li.”
Qin Ming didn’t stop pushing Li Yan’s wheelchair and continued walking towards the door.
Atlantis asked in surprise, “Li is leaving?”
Chu Luo couldn’t stand Atlantis’ stupid look anymore and retorted, “Surely you’re not expecting him to stay overnight at your house?”
Atlantis: “…”
The three of them left the hall before everyone’s eyes.
As soon as they left, the originally quiet hall exploded.
“Li taught Prince Arlan’s cousin a lesson. Isn’t he afraid that Prince Arlan’s guards will take him away if he goes out like this?”
“He shouldn’t be afraid. Blazing Glory Corporation is the world’s number one company. Even Prince Arlan can’t do anything to him on a whim.”
“Even if he can’t do anything to him openly, as long as he makes trouble for him covertly, it will be enough to keep him busy!”
At this point, all the bosses suddenly looked at each other, and they all wanted to watch the show from the sidelines.
Chu Luo and the other two went straight to the car parked outside the villa.
Li Yan must have brought a lot of bodyguards with him to attend the banquet.
At this moment, a bodyguard came over and whispered into Qin Ming’s ear.
Qin Ming said to Li Yan in a low voice, “Master, the Blue family has set up an ambush ahead.”
Chu Luo thought of the couple in Li Yan’s villa this morning and turned to look at him.
Li Yan said coldly, “Perfect timing.”
Chu Luo asked, “Will Prince Arlan ally with the Blue family to deal with you?”
Li Yan looked at her and gestured for her to get in the car first.
After the two of them got into the car, Li Yan first took out his phone and dialed a number. When the other party picked up, he said, “We’ll proceed according to plan.”
He hung up the phone and looked at the confused Chu Luo. He curled his lips and asked, “Do you want to come with me to play?”
Chu Luo blinked. “What do you want to do?”
“You’ll know later.”
The car drove out. Li Yan lifted the front and back fender and took out a shirt from behind to change into before putting on a mask.
The moment Chu Luo saw him putting on the mask, she understood. “You’re going to deal with someone?”
“Sort of.” Li Yan handed her a bag from behind. “There are clothes inside. Change into them.”
Chu Luo took the bag and opened it to take a look. Inside were a pair of jeans and a loose-fitting long hooded jacket. There was also a cap.
This set of gear was obviously good for running, jumping, and beating people up.
She looked at Li Yan. “Where should I change?”
“Here.”
Chu Luo looked up at him.
“What?”
“You go in front.”
Li Yan glanced at her and put on an eye mask before turning his head to the other side.
“We’ll get off in at most three minutes. If you delay any longer, you won’t have to get off.”
Chu Luo thought for a while. She put on the pants first before taking off her dress.
However, it was difficult to take off her dress while sitting. She stood up a little and lowered her head to avoid hitting her head. She reached behind her to pull the zipper.
Just as she unzipped her dress halfway, the car suddenly jolted.
“Ah!” Chu Luo’s body tilted and she fell onto Li Yan’s back.
Li Yan subconsciously took off his eye mask and turned to catch her.
At the same time, he asked Qin Ming in the front passenger seat through the walkie-talkie, “What’s going on?”
“Master, an animal ran across the road just now.”
Li Yan turned off the walkie-talkie and turned to look at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo quickly covered his eyes when he turned around. “Don’t look.”
The dress had slid just below her shoulder and she had exposed herself. She definitely wouldn’t let him see it.
However, she forgot that to cover his eyes, she had to lean forward and lean into his arms.
Soft and fragrant.
Li Yan tightened his grip on her before immediately letting go, saying in a low voice, “Continue changing. I’m not looking.”
Only then did Chu Luo let go. Seeing that he had turned his head away, she continued to change her clothes.
After she was done, the car slowed down at a corner.
The two of them got off the car quickly.
After watching the car leave, Chu Luo tilted her head and asked Li Yan, “Where are we going now?”
“Silicon Valley.”
Hearing the name of this place, Chu Luo’s eyes lit up. “How are we getting there?”
“Follow me.”
The two of them turned the corner and walked along a small path. After walking for about three to four minutes, they came to a place with trees. A very eye-catching motorcycle was already parked there.
“We’ll take this there.” Li Yan took out a key from his pocket and walked over.
Chu Luo followed. When they reached the motorcycle, she sized it up curiously and asked excitedly and expectantly, “Can I ride?”
