Chapter 265 Sang Yuwan was taken away by Shen Yilin

Upon seeing this, Ming Zhan's eyes darkened, and he said sternly, "Mingmei, this is my elder brother's mourning hall. You can't do whatever you want here."

Mingmei curled her lip slightly, her brows perhaps furrowing slightly, adding a touch of sarcasm. "What did I do?"

Ming Zhan's aura was heavy. "You know what you've done."

"I don't understand." Mingmei said casually, "On the contrary, you're so protective of her, it seems you really like her."

"Get out of here." Ming Zhan was already seething with anger when he saw her.

Her bright eyes widened slightly, and her eyebrows rose gently, as if in defiance of everything around her. "I'm not leaving."

"Mingmei, don't test my patience." Mingzhan's voice was like a sudden gust of cold wind in winter, carrying an undeniable chill and penetrating power.

Seeing this, Bo Xinglan pursed her lips and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Mingmei stepped forward and stopped her with her hand, saying, "You stop right there."

This unreasonable behavior completely enraged Ming Zhan, who grabbed Bo Xinglan and pulled her behind him.

To outsiders, it appears to be a protective stance.

"Oh..." Mingmei raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with a hint of amusement. "Second Brother, if Sister Wan saw you like this, wouldn't she be heartbroken?"

Bo Xinglan's breath hitched, and her toes curled up.

Ming Zhan's patience had completely run out, and his eyes turned cold and sharp. "Guards, take her away."

As soon as he finished speaking, four bodyguards appeared in an instant.

Mingmei raised an eyebrow, her tone disdainful, "Second Brother, I advise you to retract your order. Otherwise..."

Ming Zhan didn't want to hear another word from her and interrupted sharply, "Take her away."

Just as the bodyguard was about to make a move, Mingmei smiled faintly, "Second Brother, did you know that Sister Wan was taken away by Shen Yilin?"

Ming Zhan froze instantly, the muscles on his face gradually contracting. "What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Bo Xinglan's pupils contracted sharply, and her heart pounded wildly.

Mingmei crossed her arms and said arrogantly, "If Second Brother doesn't believe me, he can call Sister Wan."

Ming Zhan's face stiffened, and he was frozen in place, unable to move. After a few seconds, his heart suddenly raced, almost leaping out of his chest, and his blood surged through his veins, as if trying to fight against the irresistible force from the outside world.

Say it again.

Bo Xinglan held her breath, staring intently at Mingmei.

Logically, Sang Yuwan should be at the Ming family's house at this time.

She's not here now; she's probably been taken away by Shen Yilin.

Bo Xinglan knew very well what kind of person Shen Yilin was.

Despite Sang Yuwan finding her a psychologist, she was still filled with fear and dread towards Shen Yilin.

Mingmei raised an eyebrow triumphantly and repeated herself word by word, "I said. Sister Wan was taken away by Shen Yilin."

She paused, then added, "Young Master Shen said that we can exchange Bo Xinglan for him."

Bo Xinglan involuntarily shivered, her face turning deathly pale. Then, her head buzzed, and her thoughts completely froze for a moment.

A look of surprise flashed across Mingzhan's eyes, and his expression immediately turned extremely ugly. "Mingmei, are you telling the truth?"

Mingmei's smile faded, replaced by a serious expression. "Of course it's true. Second brother, I worry about you with both new and old flames."

Ming Zhan's face twisted slightly with anger, his eyes almost spitting fire. "Ming Mei, you actually colluded with Shen Yilin."

A disdainful smile appeared on her bright lips. "Second Brother, you're only just realizing this?"

Ming Zhan was so angry that his face turned ashen, his eyes like knives, as if he wanted to gouge her out. "Take me there now."

With a forced smile, she asked, "Are you planning to use Bo Xinglan as a bargaining chip?"

Bo Xinglan felt ice-cold all over, her heart almost stopped, and her eyes filled with despair and fear. She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

Ming Zhan's anger surged, his eyes seemed to be ignited by flames, his pupils leaping with furious fire as he glared at his opponent with an undeniable pressure. "Mingmei, if you continue like this, I'll have to use family discipline."

Mingmei's eyes trembled violently, and a bleak smile appeared on her lips. "Second Brother, I just want to confirm whether you really intend to exchange Bo Xinglan for Sister Wan."

Bo Xinglan felt a sharp pain in her heart, and her fingertips trembled, as if someone had scattered a handful of steel balls in her heart, a cold and hard pain rolling over her heart.

Ming Zhan's lips were pressed into a tight line, his teeth clenching unconsciously, producing a soft yet unsettling sound. His breathing became rapid and heavy, each exhale seeming as if he were gathering more strength to prepare for the coming storm.

"Who said I wanted to switch?"

Mingmei was stunned for a moment, then narrowed her eyes. "If it's not an exchange, are we going to our deaths? Second brother, Shen Yilin was able to kidnap Sister Wan from Rong Zhi's hands. Just imagine how powerful he is."

Ming Zhan angrily said, "Are you leaving or not? If you're not leaving, then kneel before my elder brother's spirit tablet."

Bright

Mingzhan is taking steps forward.

Bo Xinglan subconsciously lifted her foot, but her feet felt as if they were glued together, as if her entire lower limbs were tightly bound by an invisible force.

Mingzhan suddenly stopped, turned around, and said something to her.

"Don't follow."

Bo Xinglan was taken aback.

Mingzhan added, "Go back and stay put, don't wander off."

Without waiting for Bo Xinglan's response, he hurriedly left.

Mingmei glanced at Bo Xinglan, her eyes filled with provocation and mockery, "Bo Xinglan, you really are something."

Bo Xinglan's face turned deathly pale, and her legs became abnormally stiff, almost unable to bend or straighten. The stiffness extended from her knees all the way to her ankles, making it feel as if her entire lower limbs had lost their flexibility.

Mingmei curled her lips and followed Mingzhan out.

Bo Xinglan stood frozen in place for a long time. Her legs began to go numb, as if she had lost all feeling. The numbness spread from the soles of her feet all the way up her thighs, making her almost unable to feel her own existence.

A servant came over and respectfully greeted her, "Miss Bo..."

Bo Xinglan suddenly came to her senses, took a deep breath, and wanted to leave.

The next second, his body swayed violently and he fell to the ground.

-

Mingzhan and Mingmei got into the same car.

"Mingmei, you'd better not be lying."

Ming Zhan's stern voice was like a biting winter wind, piercing to the bone and sending chills down one's spine. Every syllable was filled with reproach and dissatisfaction, as if it could instantly freeze the surrounding air, making the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.

Mingmei curled her lips into a slight smile, "You're my second brother. I wouldn't lie to you, even if I lied to anyone else."

Upon seeing this, Ming Zhan's eyes grew even darker. "When did you get involved with Shen Yilin?"

"Second Brother, don't put it so harshly." Mingmei's smile vanished instantly. "That's not called flirting, it's called cooperation."

Ming Zhan's heart tightened, and a terrible thought suddenly flashed into his mind: "Six years ago, was it he who instructed you to harm Wan'er?"
