Crossing to the Future, it's Not Easy to Be a Man Chapter 1148

Chapter 1148 Repay Using My Body?

“Dismissed!” After making arrangements for Lingtian and the base, she prepared to leave the base and report to the military headquarters.

“Regiment commander, you should take some people with you.” Seeing Ling Lan was going to leave alone, Li Lanfeng walked up and stopped her.

“Hmm?” Ling Lan raised her eyebrows in confusion. She didn't understand why Li Lanfeng would suggest this. She was just going to report what they had done. What did he mean by ‘taking some people with her'?

“There are probably many people at the military headquarters who don't believe in Lingtian's strength so they might use this opportunity to challenge us instead,” smiled Li Lanfeng. “I think you shouldn't personally teach those trash a lesson, especially those people who are clearly spoiled…” Compared to Ling Lan, Li Lanfeng was more knowledgeable about what kind of place the military headquarters was and what type of people was in it.

Hearing this, Ling Lan frowned. Although Ling Lan behaved like the type of person who liked to act more than talk in reality, she was still quite lazy. For her, if she could not do anything, she would try her best to not do anything. After Li Lanfeng's reminder, she discovered that her trip to the military headquarters was indeed not as easy as she had originally thought.

Lingtian had received many military merits which had caused people to become jealous and resentful, especially so when she wouldn't be exposing her real ident.i.ty on this trip. Despite the higher-ups of the military headquarters reaching a consensus that she was Ling Xiao's son, they still just kept that information in their minds and didn't announce it to the public. Perhaps some of the high-ranking officials might even be happy to see others challenging her. They would be able to use that chance to suppress the ‘arrogance and fierceness' of her and her father.

“Thus, taking a few of us with you would also be good for handling those challenges and some miscellaneous stuff.” Li Lanfeng smiled. He didn't want his Ling Lan to handle such small matters herself.

“You're right,” Ling Lan nodded “I'll take Luo Lang and Xie Yi.”

Luo Lang and Xie Yi were quite capable and they were enough to handle all kinds of people challenging them.

“The relations.h.i.+ps within the military headquarters are weird and complex. Leader Gu was once the vice regiment commander of the police force of the military headquarters. He can help you deal with these relations.” Although the summon given to Ling Lan for her to return to the military headquarters was sudden, Li Lanfeng had already made arrangements in such a short amount of time on who should be following Ling Lan.

“That would be good. With Leader Gu there, it will be more convenient for us at the military headquarters.” Ling Lan acknowledged the people Li Lanfeng had suggested.

“Plus, Li Yingjie also has nothing to do in the base. You might as well take him to the military headquarters to open his eyes and broaden his horizon,” Li Lanfeng continued.

Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and half-smiled. “I always feel that you're plotting against your younger brother.”

Li Lanfeng didn't hide anything and smiled, “The Li family has received many benefits because of you so we should stand in the line of fire for you. Otherwise, I don't think I would be able to stay here anymore after all that we've owed to you.”

Ling Lan felt bad for Li Yingjie. What did Li Yingjie do in his past life for him to have such a heartless and calculating older brother? “It's your debt, but you send your younger brother out to repay it… You really are shameless.”

“Didn't he also receive benefits from you? The debt should be repaid so plotting against him isn't considered to be shameless in my opinion,” Li Lanfeng smiled. He didn't feel any remorse for plotting against others. Ling Lan admired his honesty. Having a dark heart and yet pretending it was like nothing was also a type of strength.

Li Lanfeng's plotting against someone meant how honest he was with them. This made Ling Lan involuntarily think of something evil. She smirked and said, “The benefits that Li Yingjie have reaped will be repaid this time, but what about you? How are you planning on repaying the many benefits that you have received from me?”

Li Lanfeng saw the teasing and playful look Ling Lan had on her face. He felt his blood rus.h.i.+ng up to his head. His ears that were not covered by the mask instantly reddened and were quickly turning even redder.

“Hmm? Have you never thought about repaying me?” Seeing Li Lanfeng who was usually talkative become speechless, Ling Lan felt that something was off so she asked a second question out of curiosity.

Li Lanfeng's hands silently clenched together. He couldn't hold back the impulse he had. He spoke out what was in his mind about how he would repay his debt, “How about I repay with my body?”

“Repay with your body? Interesting…” Ling Lan raised her eyebrows. “How do you plan on doing that?”

Ling Lan, of course, didn't think that Li Lanfeng was actually serious about what he said and thought he was joking. However, she was quite surprised at Li Lanfeng's kind of humour.

“You can do whatever you want. Anything you wish for, my regiment commander.” Li Lanfeng smirked. He looked like he was joking but was also serious about it. This half real half fake behavior annoyed Ling Lan as she flicked her finger at his forehead.

“Whoo-” Li Lanfeng shuddered from the sharp pain on his forehead.

“Hurts doesn't it? Don't ever say anything that could be easily misunderstood,” Ling Lan said nonchalantly.

“…” Li Lanfeng could only put his head down and rub his forehead.

“Currently, other than Li s.h.i.+yu, no one else knows what you actually look like. However, if one day you actually let go and face the world with your actual face, these words that you have said just now may create problems for you in the future.” Ling Lan stopped for a moment and then continued, “Although I allow every member do as they please, I still don't want something like the incident with Luo Lang to ever happen again, especially on you. You are much more likely to encounter such problems.”

“Don't do this in the future. It's for your own good,” Ling Lan spoke from the bottom of her heart.

Although Li Lanfeng knew Ling Lan was worrying about him, he was still sad in his heart. ‘Ling Lan, I don't want you to worry for me. What I want is you, but you will never want me..'

“Don't worry, I only do this in front of you…” Li Lanfeng smiled. However, no one knew that there was a teardrop in his eye that didn't dare to drop.

“I'm just afraid you'll get used to it and not pay attention to it.” After thinking of that face that could destroy the world, Ling Lan felt nauseous. If Li Lanfeng were to show his real face and wink flirtatiously while saying he would pay with his body… her mecha clan will definitely become a b.l.o.o.d.y battlefield.

“All in all, just be careful in the future.” said Ling Lan with worry in her voice. In order to make sure her mecha clan doesn't fall apart, she must watch over Li Lanfeng.

“Ling Lan, Mr. Regiment Commander, I need to let loose sometimes.” Li Lanfeng smiled bitterly.

As expected, he didn't have any chance. Despite knowing the outcome, he still couldn't let go. He would always try to probe Ling Lan. After smas.h.i.+ng into a wall and breaking everything in his body, he still couldn't control his desires. He couldn't be saved. From the moment he knew about what he wanted, he knew that he couldn't be saved anymore.

After hearing all this, Ling Lan felt her head ache.
