After being read, I was really numb

Lanling couldn't go out, so he could only invite the three of them into the house.

Lu Mei got straight to the point and said, "Lanling, your nephew and niece were asked to go to a special department for investigation for some unknown reason. From yesterday till now, they haven't come back and there is no news at all."

"I only have this pair of grandchildren. I have never asked you for anything over the years. This time I really have no other choice. Please find a way to bring them back for me."

Lan Ling looked at the people in front of him who were trying to please him, and thought of what Lan Xingyue had said about the dirty things this family had done in their previous life. He couldn't help but feel a surge of murderous intent in his heart, wanting to pick someone to devour.

Liu Yuan noticed Lanling's mood change at the first moment. She gently took Lanling's hand, and Lanling turned his head to look at her.

Liu Yuan smiled gently at Lan Ling, a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, which dissipated a lot of the hostility in Lan Ling's heart.

He suppressed the urge to strangle the whole family and spoke slowly: "Aunt Mei, I can help you get the person out, but I owe you all the favors, you can't let me help you for nothing, right?"

Lan Qi: "Brother, how can you say such a thing? Those who are locked up are all your nephews and nieces, right?"

Xue Li: "Brother and sister-in-law, I beg you to help me. The people in the special department are so cruel. Haiyang and Baixiang have been spoiled since they were young. How can they bear it?"

Of course they knew the Lan family's ancestral teachings, but Lu Mei did everything she could to marry Old Man Lan just to live a good life, so she would never be willing to take her son to suffer.

The Lanling family moved to an old neighborhood under an assumed name, and she moved her family into the old house, becoming the apparent head of the Lan family.

Having been flattered so much over the years, Lu Mei developed an illusion that she could really be the master of Lanling.

She had already reached her limit by speaking in a humble manner just now. Lan Ling actually wanted benefits for such a small matter. How could she bear such humiliation?

"Lan Ling, I am your stepmother. Those two children also have the surname Lan and are the blood of the Lan family. You don't take the initiative to rescue them, but still want benefits. Aren't you too cold-blooded?"

Lan Ling didn't care about Lu Mei's accusations: "Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that stepmother is not my biological mother, so what are nephews and nieces?"

"Anyway, I just want to say one thing. If you want me to rescue him, no problem. All I ask is that you sell me the shares you have."

"I won't take advantage of you. I'll just trade at the market price. That's all I have to say. I have to go to a meeting at the company, so I'm sorry I can't keep you company."

Lanling left the house in a good mood after saying that, holding his beloved wife's hand, leaving Lu Mei and the other two stamping their feet in anger.

That afternoon, Rumei compromised under the pleading of Lanqi and his wife.

For the sake of her only precious grandchildren, Lu Mei gritted her teeth and sold her few shares to Lanling.

After Lanling took back the shares, the first thing he did was to drive Lu Mei's family out of the Lan family's old house.

My father has been dead for more than 20 years, and the old house is under my name.

Over the years, for the sake of my father's reputation and the development of Lanfeng Group, I have been supporting Lu Mei and her family with all my might.

I have done my best by letting their family live in my house without charging rent, taking care of their food and drink, and letting them use servants that I hired.

Otherwise, they should have been kicked out long ago because they had nothing to do with me.

After Lanling drove Lu Mei's family out of the old house, he immediately dismissed Lan Qi's family from their positions in the company.

Anyway, they are all idle positions that only pay a salary and are dispensable. He always likes to abuse his power and bully others, causing complaints from employees. He has wanted to do this for a long time.

In the end, except for the three-bedroom, two-living-room apartment that the old man gave to Rumei, all other properties were taken back.

Rumei's family was kicked out of the house and lost all face.

I thought the house was mine, but it was gone and I lost my job too.

The whole family could only squeeze into a house that they considered old, small and dilapidated, and the entire house was not even as big as a cloakroom in the old house!

The family of three became angrier the more they thought about it.

Lu Mei covered her chest, her well-maintained face showing a fierce and ferocious expression: "I'm so mad, Lanling, that wolf cub, why didn't I kill him?"

Ever since Lu Mei entered the Lan family, she had been trying to find an opportunity to kill Lan Ling. Unfortunately, old man Lan protected his son very well and did not live with her, making it difficult for her to find an opportunity to kill him.

Lan Ling managed to save the day with the only two chances. It wasn't that she didn't want to kill Lan Ling, it was just that she didn't have the ability to do so.

Lan Qi was also angry. He was the second master of Lanfeng Group. Although he had nothing in his hands, he could still brag to people who didn't know the truth.

Although he was only paid in name only by the business department of Lanfeng Group in recent years, he also set up a small company. With the support of Lanfeng Group, he still earned tens of millions every year.

Lan Ling did something really awesome this time.

Not only did he kick his entire family out of the house, his son and daughter refused to help him with the money, but he also severed his cooperation with the Lanfeng Group.

With the support of Lanfeng Group over the years, his family has indeed made a lot of money, but the whole family likes to show off. They earn a lot but spend even more, and have always relied on dividends from Lu Mei's shares to make up for the loss.

Now, the family has lost everything except a pile of dead things and the money from the share transfer in Rumei's hands.

Lan Qi, who originally looked amiable, now had the same ferocious look on his face as Rumei.

"Mom, we can't just let this go."

"I don't want to let it go like this. But after all, you are not a real member of the Lan family. I guess that old man has mentioned this to Lan Ling."

"The most abominable thing is that the old, short-lived bastard signed a prenuptial agreement with me and notarized the prenuptial property. But the old man said that apart from the name, nothing belongs to me."

"Mom, you've been the old lady of the Lan family for more than 20 years, and in the end you got nothing. We can't just let it go like this."

"I don't want to give up, but that old man has always been wary of me, so he only gave us a small amount of shares, and even our names are not on the will."

"Mom, even if my last name is really not Lan, outsiders don't know. That old man had to admit it because he had no evidence, and he has been dead for many years..."

"You mean there is no evidence..."

Upon hearing this shocking secret, Xue Li's eyes widened as big as a cow's.

After being married for more than 20 years, she found out for the first time today that Lan Qi was not of the Lan family.

Xue Li's family used to be a wealthy family. She was favored by the second son of the Lanfeng Group and thought it was a match made in heaven. She was very proud of it for a while.
