It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

Chapter 1092 Despicable!

After being injured consecutively, Li Lanfeng’s face turned pale as he helplessly leaned against the wall and looked towards Ling Lan with a pained yet complicated expression on his face.

After returning to his rational self, Li Lanfeng used his intelligent mind to its fullest. Soon, he made the connection and predicted the truth behind the Phoenix Thrall Fate.

He had always thought that he was walking on the path that defied the heavens. However in the end, he was played by fate. He wanted to stay far away from his king, but the reality of it was that he was using his all to get close to his king. action

Li Lanfeng knew well that if there was someone in this world who could sit upon the throne, other than Ling Lan, there was no one else. Furthermore, the Ling family’s totem was a phoenix. The Phoenix Thrall Fate which predicted the arrival of a king was clearly pointing towards Ling Lan.

It was funny that he had not thought about the truth behind the Phoenix Thrall Fate when such obvious hints were right in front of him. In actuality, it wasn’t that he didn’t think about it, but rather he had denied it. It was because he trusted Ling Lan would not force him to what was foretold by the Phoenix Thrall Fate.

Now there was a problem... since Ling Lan wouldn’t force him to do such a thing against his will then why was there a Phoenix Thrall Fate?

Li Lanfeng was sure that Ling Lan didn’t have any weird thoughts about his beauty. He was very sure because Ling Lan didn’t fancy men. Ling Lan was the straightest of all men. Li Lanfeng also didn’t forget that Ling Lan still had two beautiful fiancées beside her, Luo Chao and Han Xuya.

Furthermore, Ling Lan clearly showed that she cared for them. She would rather let herself be injured than let his fiancees to be unsuccessful in advancing. Just her sincerity was enough to make even a bystander like him jealous and want to take that love and care for himself alone...

Take for himself?

Li Lanfeng’s body suddenly trembled. His hands held his head as he curled up on the ground in a fetal position.

“Hahahaha...” Li Lanfeng laughed crazily. He retracted his domain and allowed Ling Lan’s force of presence to ruthlessly beat on his body.

“Ugh!” The terrifying pressure from the presence pressed Li Lanfeng onto the ground instantly. A mouthful of blood shot out from Li Lanfeng’s mouth again. Despite being in severe pain, Li Lanfeng still had an insane smile on his face. It was as though the pain in his body made him feel extremely happy.

“Li Mulan, Li Mulan. It turns out the Phoenix Thrall Fate was what you forced upon yourself. It was your own choice all along... It’s hilarious that I tirelessly carried the burden of this fate and ruthlessly tormented myself for more than 20 years. In the end, the person who’s crazy is me. Everything was all my own doing.”

Li Lanfeng laughed as he kept spitting out blood out of his mouth. Ling Lan’s imperial realm presence began to cut into his flesh after Li Lanfeng completely gave up on defending against it. Soon after, Li Lanfeng was completely covered in his own blood... However, the supposedly terrifying look actually had a hint of beauty from his extremely good looks and his insane smile.

Li Lanfeng now understood his own heart. He didn’t when it started, but he had actually begun to feel attached to Ling Lan. This was why he wasn’t satisfied and wanted to push everyone else away, to become an one-of-a-kind existence in Ling Lan’s mind.

This one-of-a-kind existence was not being a so-called confidant, comrade or brother. Instead, it was to become the only piece in Ling Lan’s mind that will never be erased.

“Li Mulan, you’re disgusting.” Li Lanfeng had two streaks of tears run down the sides of his face. How could he face Ling Lan when he had such disgusting thoughts? It that was the case, then he would rather die than to live in torment.

Li Lanfeng slowly closed his eyes and silently waited for his death to arrive. Perhaps, if he were to die like this, he would leave a permanent mark in Ling Lan’s mind. After all, he would be dying by Ling Lan’s hand.

In the end, he was still so despicable. He still didn’t want Ling Lan to forget him and want Ling Lan to remember him even after he was dead.

Li Lanfeng remembered how he behaved in front of Ling Lan for all these years and smiled slightly. He was already this despicable and shameless from the very beginning.

Was he weak-hearted? No, if he was, he wouldn’t be Li Lanfeng. His younger cousin brother Li Shiyu also wouldn’t have walked down the path of becoming a military doctor like Li Lanfeng had hoped for... He only used his weakness on the outside to coerce the people from the Li family to unknowingly do what he wanted them to do.

The inner conflict, heartlessness, selfishness and the thirst for power were traits not inherited by Li Shiyu and Li Yingjie. However, these traits appeared in him. Even if he treated Li Shiyu with sincerity, he didn’t make it any easier for Li Shiyu when he plotted against him. He would only regret such actions when he had nothing better to do.

Did he like to cry? No, he hated it. However, he knew that Ling Lan wouldn’t do anything to him if he cried. Thus, he cried nonstop. Using this method, he achieved his goals one after another and increased his weight on Ling Lan’s heart.

Was he a fake? It was very possible that he was. After disguising himself for so long, even he had forgotten whether his current personality was his real personality. He would only expose a weak part of himself to Ling Lan from time to time. It was because he understood that children who cried would get more attention.

Ling Lan had too many underlings under her. If he didn’t do something to stand out in Ling

s eyes, as time passed by, he would just become an insignificant bystander or just become one of her many underlings. He definitely wouldn’t allow that to happen.

Now that he thought about it, everything he did while he was with Ling Lan had a goal. This included the time when he and Ling Lan were alone and he took off his mask to show his real face. This was also a means to increase his weight in Ling Lan’s heart. It was to tell Ling Lan that he was a one-of-a-kind existence.

One-of-a-kind. It seemed he had unconsciously done these things so early on during their budding friendship. He was indeed despicable and shameless.

Luckily, he understood now and didn’t let Ling Lan see through his actual thoughts and completely give up on him.

Li Lanfeng felt the tears he had cried out today were enough to flood a shoreline. It poured out continuously. It wasn’t like the times when he purposefully cried. This time, he had no control over it.

Li Lanfeng could no longer feel the immense pain wrecking his entire body. He began to feel his soul starting to float upwards... Was this the feeling of death?

Forget it, if he was going to die then just let him cry his heart out one last time.

“Dumbass, what are you doing?” An angry shout echoed through his ears.

Immediately after, something was shoved into his mouth and a cool liquid quickly flowed down his throat.

‘I’m not dead yet?’

This was Li Lanfeng’s last thought.

Ling Lan saw the terrifying scene when she opened her eyes. Li Lanfeng was covered in blood and leaned weakly against the door. She immediately ran up to him and sat Li Lanfeng upright. She was instantly furious when she saw the continuously flow of tears and the lack of willpower to live in Li Lanfeng’s actions. After angrily shouting, she quickly shove one vial of medicinal agent into Li Lanfeng’s mouth and dragged the dying Li Lanfeng out of the clutches of hell.

Seeing Li Lanfeng gradually recovering, Ling Lan let out a sigh of relief. “He’s such a troublesome guy.”

Although Li Lanfeng was full of strategies and plans, he still would easily walk on a path of extremes because of his great intelligence. She didn’t know what had happened during her advancement into the imperial realm that made this guy give up on running away and wait for his death instead.

Could it be that he misunderstood what she said when she said protect her? Was that why he put his life on the line and stood there? Ling Lan felt her head starting to ache. She seemed to have discovered that Li Lanfeng had problem of being stubborn.

‘Why does this guy have so many problems? He has even more problems than my little brothers and sisters combined.’
