Su Ling'er hugged her knees tightly, huddled in a corner, trembling, desperate, helpless, disintegrating her bit by bit.

Leng Hanxuan, who came back from work, did not see Su Ling'er in the south courtyard, and this girl didn't know where she went, and she never had a peaceful day.

"Xiao Bing, where's Young Mistress?" Leng Hanxuan asked in a cold voice, when he finds this girl, he has to make a good deal with her.

Xiaobing lowered her head and said falteringly: "Young mistress...she...she...was punished by...the old lady and locked up in the basement."

"What?" Leng Hanxuan's eyes tightened: "When did it happen?"

"Young Mistress was called away this morning, and she never came back. It was a letter from Third Young Mistress." Xiaobing replied truthfully. The Leng family is not favored, and no one pays attention to her at all.

Leng Hanxuan turned around and strode out, with his heart in his throat. The basement was dark and damp. Since she stayed in that kind of place for a day, he could easily imagine how she spent the day.

Thinking that Su Linger's life would be worse than death now, his deep eyes became dark and cold, violent, and his pace quickened a little.

Snapped!
Leng Hanmo slapped Xiao Yuan on the face, glared at Xiao Yuan, and asked, "Tell me, did you do it?"

Xiao Yuan covered her face and looked at Leng Hanmo in astonishment. She never thought that Leng Hanmo would suspect that she did it.

"What? Do you suspect it's me?" Xiao Yuan sneered, covering her face. She didn't expect Leng Hanmo to beat her again and again for that woman.

"It's not who you are, it's just that you touched my clothes." Leng Hanmo didn't doubt, but affirmed: "I didn't expect that you would even dare to plot against me in order to deal with Ran'er. You are getting more and more courageous now." .”

"Haha..." Xiao Yuan laughed, with a cold look in her eyes: "Since you believe that I did it, why don't you expose me in front of grandma, so that your sweetheart will not be punished and locked in the basement. What is the basement?" Place, I think you know better than me, if you stay in it for a day, you will go crazy even if you are not disabled, what? Why don't you save your sweetheart?"

"You..." Leng Hanmo raised his hand high, but he didn't let it go down.

"You just think I'm useful." Xiao Yuan said coldly, raised her head, and greeted Leng Hanmo's slap: "From the beginning, we have been using each other, why? Don't you need me now? "

This is Xiao Yuan's provocation. She doesn't believe that Leng Hanmo doesn't need her. Without her, how could he build a bridge with An Ran? Being emotional made Leng Hanxuan pay more attention to An Ran'er. Before he achieved his goal, Leng Hanmo would not abandon her as a pawn.

Leng Hanmo clenched his hands tightly, but the slap did not fall: "Xiao Yuan, you'd better pray that nothing will happen, otherwise I will make your life worse than death."

"Master, the young master has gone to the east courtyard." The bodyguard A Ming came in to report.

"Hmph!" Leng Hanmo glanced at Xiao Yuan, then walked out with big strides.

Xiao Yuan showed a wry smile, tears streaming down her cheeks: "Hehe, life is better than death." What is the difference between life and death when she is like this now, An Raner, it was all her fault, it was all her.

Xiao Yuan clenched her fists tightly, her eyes showed ruthlessness, she wiped away her tears, got up, recovered her emotions, smiled slightly, and strode out, she really wanted to see what would happen to An Ran'er if she was locked in the basement for a day.

East Court
Leng Hanxuan looked at Li Cuilian coldly and asked, "Grandma, what about it?"

Li Cuilian didn't hide anything, and said with a cold snort, "This kind of unruly person, I locked her in the basement."

When Leng Hanxuan heard the words "basement", Leng Hanxuan's icy eyes became even colder, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Grandma, no matter who she is, she is my woman, what should be done is up to me." It's up to you, isn't it?"

Li Cuilian was taken aback, she didn't expect Leng Hanxuan to talk to her like this, no matter how she punished An Ran before, he would just turn a blind eye and never ask questions, let alone question her.

"You can't finish your daily company affairs. Let me take care of the backyard house for you."

Li Cuilian is not to be outdone, the relationship between her grandfather and grandson has been delicate these years. Although Li Cuilian is in charge of the entire Leng family, the big world has already been decided by Leng Hanxuan, and the two have always respected each other as guests. This is the first time that they There is a contradiction.

"Then thank you grandma for your kindness, but from now on, I don't need to bother grandma to worry about the matter in the south courtyard." Leng Hanxuan left the words and strode towards the basement.

Li Cuilian tightly held the Buddhist beads in her hand, looked at Leng Hanxuan who was leaving, she didn't stop her, and she also knew that she couldn't stop it at all.

Leng Hanxuan kicked the iron door open: "Ran Er, Ran Er."

Leng Hanxuan strode in, the noise startled the mice and cockroaches, and they made a 'squeak' sound, and the mice and cockroaches ran around.

"Ah... go away" Su Ling'er jumped up, the mice and cockroaches were finally quiet for a while, and now they started commotion again, she was about to collapse.

"But..." Leng Hanxuan strode over, looked at Su Ling'er who was squatting in the corner, flustered and helpless, disheveled, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and felt a pain in her heart.

"However, it's okay, I'm here." Leng Hanxuan hugged Su Ling'er into his arms.

Su Ling'er looked up at Leng Hanxuan, hugged him tightly, and burst into tears like a frightened child.

"Leng Hanxuan, why did you come here?" Su Ling'er cried and cried, feeling a little more at ease in her heart.

"Okay, it's okay, with me here, no one can hurt you." Leng Hanxuan comforted softly, not only for Su Linger, but also for himself.

Su Ling'er hugged Leng Hanxuan tightly and did not let go, fearing that this was just a dream, and after waking up from the dream, she would face this terrible thing alone again.

Leng Hanxuan picked up Su Ling'er and strode out of the basement. It was already dark, and even the moon was hidden in the dark clouds tonight. The cold air around Leng Hanxuan made people dare not approach.

"Xuan" Li Cuilian called Leng Hanxuan to stop.

Leng Hanxuan stopped in his tracks, without even turning his head, and asked coldly, "Grandma, is there anything else?"

"I hope you don't blame grandma. Grandma is also afraid that you will be hurt." Li Cuilian put away her violence and wanted peace. She didn't want to become stiff because of a woman and Leng Hanxuan's ordinary relationship these years.

"In the future, grandma should not bother me about my affairs. Grandma should not bother about the matter of the south courtyard in the future. My woman, I can discipline myself, so I don't need grandma to worry about it. Grandma should take good care of the north and west courtyards."

Leng Hanxuan didn't show any affection, looking at the person in his arms, his anger couldn't be calmed down.

Lan Yin said with a slightly reproachful tone: "Xuan, why did you talk to grandma?"

Leng Hanxuan looked over coldly, and said sharply, "What's none of your business? I need you to teach me a lesson?"

Lan Yin silently lowered her head, not daring to speak out.

"Mo Xuan, what are you talking about?" Li Cuilian did not hide from Leng Hanxuan.

Leng Hanxuan didn't want to talk nonsense with them anymore, and said coldly: "If there is nothing else, we will leave first."

When Leng Hanmo arrived, Leng Hanxuan had already turned around and left. Looking at their backs, Leng Hanmo's eyes dimmed and drooped. He thought, perhaps in the entire Leng family, Leng Hanxuan was the only one who disobeyed grandma's wishes.

A sneer flickered at the corner of his mouth, he couldn't even protect his beloved woman, so what could he use to argue with Leng Hanxuan.

Xiao Yuan stood not far away, clenched her fists, and stared at Leng Hanxuan's back, wishing to drag the person from his arms, wondering: "Why, why are they protecting An Ran so much, she If there's anything good about it, isn't it just beautiful, then I'll ruin her face."Xiao Yuan showed cruelty.

Leng Hanxuan carried Su Ling'er back to the south courtyard.

Looking at Su Ling'er lying on the bed, Leng Hanxuan's heart ached, and he stretched out his hand to caress Su Ling'er's frowning eyebrows.

He definitely wouldn't just let this matter go. Although he couldn't do anything to Li Cuilian, others were not so easy to talk to.

Leng Hanxuan got up, and Su Linger grabbed his hand.

"Don't go." Su Ling'er looked at Leng Hanxuan with tears in her eyes, she still hasn't recovered from the shock, so it can be seen that she was quite frightened.

Leng Hanxuan held her hand tightly, and said softly: "I'm not leaving, I'm going out to help you prepare food, you haven't eaten all day."

Su Linger didn't let go of his hand, she felt that if she let go, she would lose her sense of security, which made her flustered.

Such a helpless and fragile Su Ling'er made Leng Hanxuan's eyes sting, but he still likes the strong Su Ling'er who is fearless.

"Leng Hanxuan, I don't want to see that basement for the rest of my life." Su Ling'er said in a cold voice in horror, remembering the scene just now, she still couldn't help trembling.

Leng Hanxuan sat down and hugged her into his arms: "Okay, I'll find someone to seal her up tomorrow."

"I don't want to go to the east courtyard to ask for any kindness."Su Ling'er almost gritted her teeth and said that hatred for Li Cuilian has already been planted in her heart.

"Okay, don't go."

"I want revenge." Su Ling'er's eyes showed hatred, she must take revenge, today's incident is a lifetime of shame for her, she will not let it go so easily.

"Okay, I'll take revenge for you."

Even if Su Ling'er didn't say anything, Leng Hanxuan wouldn't let the matter just go away.

"No, I want to report it myself, Leng Hanxuan, today's humiliation, I will never forget it for the rest of my life, Leng's family, too cold-blooded and ruthless." Su Linger said angrily, not only for herself, but also for An Ran'er, who had never I understand, to live a good life, even without Leng Hanxuan's love, An Ran doesn't need to commit suicide. Now she understands a little bit, for a weak woman like An Ran, it is already very good to live through these years, she admires it An Ran, how much perseverance is needed to survive in this Leng family.

"The Leng family is a ruthless and cold-blooded family, how warm can you think of him?" Leng Hanxuan said lightly, the coldness and hatred in his eyes made Su Ling'er stunned.

She was very strange, why she felt that when Leng Hanxuan mentioned the Leng family, he had no emotion, but endless hatred. What kind of way did he and the Leng family exist?
And Lan Yin, Leng Hanxuan's mommy, why did she never hear him call mommy, or even give him a straight look.

The fear just now has been taken over by curiosity, she really wants to know the man in front of her.

"You and the Leng family?" Su Ling'er still couldn't help asking.

Leng Han pushed her away, stood up and said coldly: "Don't inquire about things you shouldn't know."

Su Ling'er curled her lips, as if someone knew about it, she didn't ask unless she asked.
