Chapter 156 Lan Zijie flips the table
Beifu College——
Lan Zijie had just finished class and was stopped by a man and a woman as he walked out of the building.
He frowned, stared at the two men coldly, and asked with a hint of impatience: "What's the matter?"
Lan Zifeng smiled and said politely, "Lan Zijie, right? I'm Lan Zifeng from the Sulan family. I came to you this time to confirm something. I hope to talk to you."
The woman standing next to her also introduced herself: "Lan Yingyue."
When Lan Zijie heard that they were from Sulan's family, he couldn't help but feel confused.
I thought I could finally breathe a sigh of relief after getting rid of the entanglement of Lan Zichen and Lan Zixi, but now two uninvited guests have shown up.
Then the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a contemptuous smile, and responded coldly: "It seems that there is nothing to talk about between us, right?"
"Or are you two here to cause trouble to me on purpose?"
Lan Zifeng waved his hand gently and explained: "I'm not here to cause trouble."
"I understand that something unpleasant happened between you and Lan Zixi and Lan Zichen from the second house."
"Therefore, I have come here specially to invite you to lunch and take this opportunity to clear up the misunderstanding."
However, Lan Zijie was not willing to easily believe everything Lan Zifeng said.
Knowing fully the complexity and hypocrisy of Sulan's family, he was full of doubts about their words.
"No time"
Lan Zijie refused without even thinking about it.
Hearing this, Lan Zifeng's face instantly turned extremely ugly. He had never expected that Lan Zijie would be so disrespectful and unwilling to even consider it.
Lan Yingyue, who was standing by, was so angry that her face turned blue. She snorted coldly, her tone was a little angry: "Lan Zijie, don't be so shameless!"
"We are inviting you politely now, but you don't even agree."
"It won't be up to you later!"
Facing Lan Yingyue's threat, Lan Zijie was disdainful and still maintained that contemptuous look, sneering: "Oh? Really?"
"I'm really looking forward to what tricks your Sulan family can come up with!"
Lan Yingyue was so angry that she couldn't speak, but at this moment, Shen Shuhao suddenly walked over.
Lan Zijie's heart suddenly moved. He felt that Shen Shuhao's appearance was too coincidental, which made him wonder whether Shen Shuhao was also a participant in this matter.
Shen Shuhao glanced at Lan Zifeng and Lan Yingyue, then looked at Lan Zijie and asked, "What's wrong?"
Before Lan Zijie could speak, Lan Yingyue couldn't wait to say, "Shen Shuhao, why don't you come and persuade Lan Zijie too!"
Her tone was full of complaints, and she seemed very dissatisfied with Lan Zijie's attitude.
Then she continued to complain: "We invited him sincerely, but he didn't show any sign of appreciation!"
Hearing this, Lan Zijie showed a look of disdain on his face, and refuted bluntly: "Sincere invitation? I'm so sorry, I don't feel the sincerity you mentioned at all!"
Seeing this, Shen Shuhao quickly acted as a peacemaker and said with a smile: "Oh, don't be like this! Lan Zijie, why don't you go there?"
He patted Lan Zijie on the shoulder to show his understanding and try to ease the tense atmosphere.
However, Lan Zijie did not respond immediately, but fell into deep thought.
At this time, Shen Shuhao continued to add: "Don't worry, my grandfather also knows about this matter."
His eyes were firm and sincere, as if he was making a promise to Lan Zijie.
"Nothing will happen, just sit down and have a good chat."
Shen Shuhao's words moved Lan Zijie's heart, and he began to think about whether he should accept this invitation.
After all, Shen Shenghe already knew about this matter. If something really went wrong, the consequences could be disastrous.
At least the Shen family will be implicated, and then my father will definitely turn against the Shen family, and they will not gain any benefits.
Lan Zijie looked at Shen Shuhao hesitantly, hoping to get more assurances from him.
At this time, Shen Shuhao emphasized again: "Don't worry, I will go with you later and won't let you suffer any loss."
His voice carried a reassuring power, which gradually made Lan Zijie put his worries aside.
Finally, Shen Shuhao smiled and said, "My grandfather said that you are all studying abroad, so if you have any problems, just talk about it."
"If we can't talk it out, my grandfather said he would beat whoever starts it first."
This sentence completely dispelled Lan Zijie's doubts, and he decided to trust Shen Shuhao once.
So he nodded and indicated his willingness to go.
A conflict that seemed tense was resolved through Shen Shuhao's mediation.
Lan Zijie followed them to their destination and wanted to see how they wanted to solve the problem.
Soon, everyone arrived at a rather shabby hotel.
There are four words "Harmony is the most precious" hanging above the entrance of the hotel.
Shen Shuhao said: "This is the rule of the older generation. If there is any conflict that the family cannot resolve, they will come to this restaurant to sit down and discuss it in detail."
“It’s been a long time since anyone from the aristocratic family has set foot in this restaurant.”
Only the older generation knows about this place. Some of the new generation in the aristocratic families may have never even heard of this place.
In fact, there is one thing Shen Shuhao didn't know, that Lan Yaoxia had overturned the table here in the past.
The peacemakers back then were the Qiao family.
After entering, it was empty.
There was a table and a few stools in the middle of the restaurant. After everyone sat down, someone immediately served tea.
Lan Yingyue looked a little disdainful, but Lan Zifeng's expression was relatively calm.
Lan Zijie had heard of these rules because his eldest brother had been here once.
Drinking this cup of tea means letting go of all past conflicts.
Lan Zifeng said: "I know you and Lan Zichen don't have a good relationship"
"But they only have a grudge against you in the capital, and now the two of them have been kidnapped by bandits."
"If I'm not mistaken, this is the work of your family."
Lan Zijie snorted, "You mean, my family did it?"
Lan Yingyue said sarcastically: "Tsk tsk tsk, I can't think of anyone else except you, what do you think is going on?"
"cut"
"If you think so, there's nothing I can do."
Seeing Lan Zijie's bad look, Lan Yingyue couldn't help but scold him, "You stinky boy, don't be so shameless!"
At this time, Shen Shuhao saw that the situation was getting a little out of control, so the alliance spoke up and took charge of the situation, saying, "Everyone, stop arguing. Let's talk it over."
Then he said to Lan Zijie: "Lan Zijie, what is said in this restaurant must not be spread outside, otherwise the party who breaks the rules will be suppressed by the major families together."
"So don't worry, if the person was really kidnapped by your family, then hand him over. The judicial authorities will not intervene in this matter."
Hearing this, Lan Zijie also became angry.
He overturned the table with one hand, which scared them all. They all stood up and took a few steps back.
"Don't think that just because you brought me out, you can talk nonsense in front of me."
"I don't like what you say, but I won't give you face anyway."
"Also, don't think you can scare me by using the name of the Sulan family."
"I am from the Linhai Lan family, you have no right to control me"
