540 I am here to see you

" Can you shut up?" Lu Peng was getting a headache with all the screaming Song Lan did every day, he wasn't leaving in an apartment with walls that will block noise. The wall of his house was paper thin and everyone could hear the noise that was coming in and out of each room, it was a good thing that he and his brother was living in a place with abandoned houses. If they had neighbours residing next to them then he was sure that they would have been visited by police officers every day.

"You…How dare you ask me to shut up?" Song Lan's eyes popped as she looked at Lu Peng who was scolding her. Even though she was reacting as if this was the first time Lu Peng has scolded her but the truth was that she was not only scolded by Lu Peng and Lu Cheng, she was even beaten by them every now and then. But she was like a brunt rope even if she lost everything important to her, the arrogance that was drilled in her bones was hard to let go of.

This was why she continued to make a fuss every now and then, she knew that Lu Peng and Lu Cheng could not kill her which was why she would only stay silent for a few days before beginning to start fussing again. The last time she was beaten up was three days ago, her injuries were no longer hurting but at the same time, she was not fully healed either. If they were to hit her again then she will surely get killed and Song Lan was sure that this was something that neither Lu Peng nor Lu Cheng wanted.

This was the reason she started her antics today because she knew she will be able to get away from it. With a slightly arrogant look on her face, she looked at Lu Peng and said in a haughty manner, " Do you even know who I am? I am the rising star, Song Lan! The only legitimate daughter accepted by Song Dong Ming. If I go missing what do you think will happen? You both will have a fate worse than death, that is what is going to happen! So why don't you do both of us a favour? And let me go! LET ME GO!"

" What's wrong with her today?" Song Lan's scream was so loud that Lu Cheng woke up from his afternoon nap. He walked over to the storeroom and then looked at Song Lan who was seething with rage but he did not even mind her rage as he looked at his brother and asked, " Why haven't you gagged her yet? Look at that, she is making so much noise, already. What if someone hears her, what are you going to do?"

" Do you think I don't want to?" Lu Peng was furious when he saw that his brother was blaming him, he pointed to Song Lan who was tied to the floor with a dog bowl lying on the corner for her to eat when she was hungry and added angrily, " I have been trying to get her gagged and sh!t but this b! tch screams so much and bites worse than a piranha, I have been trying to gag her but she has bitten me so many times already."

As he spoke, he showed his hands and wrist that were bitten by Song Lan. " You tell me what am I supposed to do with her?"

" Just knock her out," Lu Peng suggested with an eye roll as he pointed to Song Lan who was on the floor and made a violent gesture of punching her in the face. " I don't see why you have to act like a gentleman with her, true we cannot kill her but Boss did not say that she wants her completely unscarred, after all, you know she does not like this woman very much."

" What are you talking about?" Song Lan asked as she looked at the two men with disbelief lined on her face, she knew that they were talking about Song Yan but how come that woman suddenly became the boss of these two men? And just how long was she planning everything to work this perfect for her?

She stared at the two men and then scoffed in a mocking voice, " Do you really wish for me to do something to you, once I get out …is this why you are doing this to me? If you both have death wishes then just say so, it's not like I will not be able to do anything to you two. My mother is Chu Lian, the matriarch of the Song family, she will not let you off and as for that Song Yan, for whom you are doing all this …she will pay as well."

" You b!tch!" When Lu Peng heard that Song Lan was threatening them, he made a violent gesture but then he was stopped by a familiar voice.

" You three seemed to be having fun," said Song Yan as she walked inside the room and then glanced at Song Lan who was tied to the floor with her hands handcuffed, it hasn't been that long but Song Lan has been reduced to the condition of a pitiful vagabond. Her clothes were dirtied, she had wet patches of urine and her waste, and her face was beaten black and blue —— if she did not know that this woman was Song Lan then she would have thought she was someone else.

But that wasn't the reason why she couldn't recognise Song Lan, the reason was she looked so average that she looked like one of those many women who when thrown into the crowd no one would be able to tell them apart one from another.

It did not come as a surprise to Song Yan because she knew that all the luck that this woman has stolen has been used up by her, this was the reason why Song Lan's appearance went back to the time when she did not have anyone's luck to back on.
