136: Chapter 136 The Underworld Boss's Benefactor 2
When Lu Zhan arrived in this world, Leng Yan had only recently been taken to the police station.
His mother and younger sister were both women of unyielding character; unless it concerned Leng Yan's life and safety, they would rather die than submit.
Since Li Mingda wanted to lure Leng Yan out and also intended to use his family members to manipulate him, he had not yet taken action against the mother and daughter.
Thus, the point in time when Lu Zhan arrived was not yet too late.
Even though Li Mingda had already subjected Leng Yan to coercion and threats, Leng Yan had not yet been convicted, and the tragedy of his mother and sister had not yet occurred; everything could still be remedied.
Moreover, quite fortunately, Lu Zhan's identity in this world was extremely prestigious; he was the eldest Young Master of the Lu family, one of the top elite families in B City.
The eldest Young Master of the Lu family was famous throughout B City's upper circles for being arrogant, domineering, and difficult to provoke. He gave no one any face, and even his own father could barely control him; only Elder Lu could manage to say a few words to him.
However, everyone also understood that expecting Elder Lu to discipline his grandson was simply impossible.
Elder Lu had only one daughter, so the Lu family had originally taken in a son-in-law to live with them. His beloved daughter had been in poor health since childhood and passed away not long after giving birth to Lu Zhan.
Therefore, Lu Zhan became the apple of Elder Lu's eye. From childhood to adulthood, he truly got whatever he wanted and had whatever he needed.
Whether it was good or bad, Elder Lu indulged him, and he was extremely protective of his own, so Lu Zhan became someone who feared neither heaven nor earth.
When Li Mingda was brought before Lu Zhan, he was truly trembling with fear, cold sweat breaking out all over his body.
He knew deeply that for a small fry like him, Young Master Lu only needed to say a few words to make it impossible for him to stand his ground in all of B City; if he lifted a finger, he could easily crush him to death.
His mind kept replaying the things he had done recently, wondering if he had inadvertently offended this Young Master.
Lu Zhan didn't even spare him a single glance, just carelessly spat out a sentence.
"Is Young Master Li feeling very Divine Qi? You dare to recklessly touch my people."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingda's legs went weak in an instant, and he knelt directly at Lu Zhan's feet, hurriedly saying with a face full of panic.
"Young Master Lu, even if I had the guts of a bear and a leopard, I would never dare to touch your people. There must be some misunderstanding here, right?"
Lu Zhan heard this, glanced lightly at the man, then raised his hand to pat the other's cheek. The force was not great, but the insulting nature was extremely strong.
"Leng Yan is my person, understand?"
Li Mingda's expression instantly became extremely ugly, his eyes full of unwillingness, but he could only sullenly suppress the seething resentment in his heart, and said with a face full of respect.
"Young Master Lu, I truly did not know that Young Master Leng was your person. I will go handle it immediately, release his mother and sister, and then personally go to the police station to pick up Young Master Leng.
I will definitely apologize properly to Young Master Leng's family. Young Master Lu, please look at the fact that I was ignorant and spare me this once."
Lu Zhan acted as if he hadn't listened to the other's words at all, turning his gaze to a companion on the side and gesturing with his hand.
Wang Xiao in the private room immediately understood, hurriedly grabbing a bottle of strong liquor and placing it in front of Li Mingda.
"Then do as you said, and then drink this liquor, and this matter will be considered over."
Lu Zhan leaned leisurely on the sofa, a faint smile on his handsome face, but cold light flickered in his eyes.
Although the few Young Masters in the private room didn't quite understand the reason, they didn't say much. Someone of Li Mingda's level wasn't worthy of hanging out with them, so they were all in the posture of watching a good show.
"Young Master Lu, I understand."
Looking at that bottle of liquor, Li Mingda knew in his heart that if he didn't drink it, the trouble would likely be even greater. So he gritted his teeth, steeled his heart, opened the bottle cap, and gulped it down directly from the bottle.
He was about to vomit, but he didn't dare to stop. Not until the entire bottle of liquor was finished did he still try hard to maintain his sobriety.
"Young Master Lu, I've finished drinking. Do you think this is acceptable?"
Lu Zhan waved his hand dismissively and sent the person away directly. He didn't care about a small fry like Li Mingda at all, assuming the other wouldn't dare to act one way to his face and another behind his back.
As for revenge, it was better to leave that for the Male Protagonist to handle himself.
As soon as Li Mingda stepped out of the private room, he slapped himself hard, the pain instantly making him much more sober.
He hurriedly took out his phone and dialed, not daring to delay for even a second, and after giving instructions and arranging everything properly, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The incident that triggered Leng Yan's corruption was solved by Lu Zhan so easily, but the mission had not yet indicated success.
Lu Zhan thought to himself that perhaps it was because Leng Yan's career had been completely destroyed, and it required the other to rise again.
However, he did not go to find Leng Yan. With that sentence he just said, Leng Yan would have smooth sailing in everything he did throughout B City.
With such favorable timing, geography, and human relations, plus the halo and ability that the Male Protagonist himself possessed, success in his career was only a matter of time; he only needed to wait quietly for a period of time.
However, what Lu Zhan had not expected was that Leng Yan came before him the very next day, and then without a word, knelt down and kowtowed.
His words were full of gratitude for this great life-saving favor, hoping to do something for Lu Zhan to repay it.
Lu Zhan spent a long time telling Leng Yan it wasn't necessary, but Leng Yan was too stubborn and too rigid in his ways of handling things, making it impossible to reason with him; he just knelt there and refused to leave.
Lu Zhan felt helpless, so he had no choice but to keep him by his side as a bodyguard, and even handed over all his own bodyguards to Leng Yan to manage.
Seeing that Leng Yan was very interested in fighting and firearms, he even specially invited a Great Master to instruct him.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had already passed. During this period, the two were inseparable; wherever Lu Zhan appeared, Leng Yan was sure to follow by his side.
After experiencing such a drastic change, Leng Yan's temperament had already changed quite a bit, but he was always obedient and compliant towards Lu Zhan, and no matter how outrageous the requests Lu Zhan made, he would complete them perfectly.
And those who spoke ill of Lu Zhan behind his back, or wanted to harm Lu Zhan, or provoked Lu Zhan, were all secretly dealt with miserably by Leng Yan!
Yet Leng Yan had Lu Zhan's backing, so on the surface no one dared to touch him, and in secret, they couldn't fight him either. Those people could only swallow their anger, swallowing their full resentment.
As time passed, it spread throughout the entire upper circle of B City that Young Master Lu had raised a mad dog that bit people indiscriminately.
Lu Zhan just smiled when he heard this, and even appreciatively patted Leng Yan on the shoulder, telling him he did a good job.
He had lived extremely comfortably for this half year; his food, clothing, housing, and transportation were all arranged in an orderly manner by Leng Yan. However, the mission progress bar that hadn't moved for a long time was truly quite annoying.
Lu Zhan knew in his heart that for the Male Protagonist, this half year was just wasting time.
In order to make the mission succeed quickly, he could not let the Male Protagonist continue to waste away, so Lu Zhan told Leng Yan to go develop his own career.
He would provide the capital, and he would also be the backer. If there were people he fancied, he could take them directly; he told Leng Yan to just go ahead and do it boldly.
Leng Yan's eyes were extremely complicated at that moment, his brows full of reluctance, but he still nodded in agreement, then turned and left.
