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

1388 Very Shameless.

“We performed an examination on the physical constitutions of the maids in the palace, and we found out that most of them have physical constitutions that are as strong as the both of us. Some even have better physiques than us.” Han Xuya’s eyes lit up as she recounted their findings, as this finding made them exceptionally exhilarated.

“So...” Ling Lan seemed to understand what they wanted to do.

“So, we decided to train these maids to let them understand that women can take charge of their own lives too, and that they are not inferior to anyone, not even to their male counterparts,” Han Xuya clenched his fist as she spoke excitedly.

“In the past, we were able to form an all-female combat team in Lingtian. Today, we will form an army of capable women that will strike fear into whoever hears of their name.” Luo Chao took a step forward as she puffed up her chest confidently. Her face was already red in excitement and her eyes were sparkling brightly as she envisioned the future of her successful army.

“Have you formulated a plan for your goal?” Ling Lan thought for a moment and asked.

“We’ve already done it. Boss, please take a look at it.” Han Xuya quickly took out the proposal they prepared and passed it to Ling Lan.

Looking at the nervous and anticipating faces of Han Xuya and LUo Chao, Ling Lan let out a wide smile like a proud mom would and said, “You really made ample preparations. You even have the proposal ready.”

Han Xuya scratched her head and smiled foolishly in reply.

Ling Lan carefully read through the carefully written and well thought out words and snickered a little

“It looks like you didn’t just use my military doctor. You even brought in my strategist.” Ling Lan smiled ambiguously at Luo Chao and Han Xuya again.

“No, w-we did not. We really didn’t. Lanfeng just felt that our idea is very good but is lacking in some aspects, so he kindly offered us some pointers to improve on the plan.” Han Xuya wiped away the cold sweat off her forehead. In reality, they really did use Boss’s name to ask many of her loyal subordinates to help come up with this meticulous plan.

“It’s fine. Anyways, the proposal is very detailed. The timeline is thoroughly planned out and segmented well too. If you can persist with this plan, you might really see some great results.” Every aspect of the proposal was written clearly, and issues that might come up were already geared up with contingency plans to resolve them. If they followed the proposal, there would be no problem.

But, even still, it was quite unexpected for Li Lanfeng to help them with their proposal. What was even more surprising was that she could tell he had spent a significant amount of effort to write this proposal. Ling Lan knew Li Lanfeng well enough to tell that he wasn’t a person who would do tasks that were of no benefit to him unless she was the one who ordered him to. Without her direct order, Li Lanfeng would reject anyone who required his expertise. Even if he couldn’t coldly reject the person entirely because of their relationship, he would just come up with some half-assed plans and be done with it.

At that time, Ling Lan didn’t actually understand why Li Lanfeng would help Han Xuya and Luo Chao so much. Now, after satiating her hunger, it was as if a hemorrhage in her brain had been unblocked, ideas of why Li Lanfeng would help them surfaced in her mind until only one idea persisted.

“Were you the one who gave Luo Chao and Xuya the idea to train the maids?” Ling Lan immediately sat up straight from the sofa. Her eyes narrowed as she thought, ‘So this is the fellow who caused me to be hungry for so many days. Why did I even feel grateful towards him in the first place?’

“Not really,” Li Lanfeng said with an innocent face.

However, his innocent baby face didn’t work on Ling Lan as she smiled coldly. “If it wasn’t you, who suggested the idea then? Anyways, why would you be so kind as to help them write up an entire proposal in the first place?”

‘Hmph, are you trying to fool me? Don’t you know I understand you the best? What a sneaky guy! Hnng!’

“It is a long story.” Li Lanfeng gently and meticulously wiped the coffee table as he replied calmly, “When I came back, I kept noticing them sighing every day. I can’t bear to see them like this so I asked them what happened.”

“So, you gave them this stupid idea?” Ling Lan asked in frustration.

“No...” Li Lanfeng gave a wronged puppy-eyed look. “After hearing their concerns, I suggested Luo Chao and Xuya to return to the Jialan Ship. After all, they are the captain and vice-captain of the ship. They can go back and train their little soldiers to pass time. Luo Lang will also be able to come back. Plus, I think Luo Lang is more suited to stay here.”

“But, they can’t go back now.” The Jialan Ship was now kept under tight surveillance from all the factions in the Lawless Lands. Luckily, everyone thought that Luo Lang was the captain of the Jialan Ship. With him being a titled domain formidable warrior and having an ace mecha clan at his beck and call, were enough to deter anymore from doing any shady business. If they revealed Luo Chao and Han Xuya as the true captains of the ship, trouble would come right on their doorsteps the very next day.

Ling Lan wasn’t afraid of those direct confrontations, but she was very afraid of the secret schemes they could cook up to mess with the two ladies. So, even though it pained her seeing her sisters so sad, she had to keep Luo Chao and Han Xuya in her room.

“I know, so I asked them to cultivate whenever they have the time to improve their personal strength. Only when they have the capability to protect themselves and the people around them, can they be released.” Li Lanfeng smiled. He appeared as if he was really thinking for his younger sisters.

“Hadn’t they been doing that for the past three months?” Ling Lan glared at Li Lanfeng angrily. What he said achieved nothing but confused her in a giant loop. In the end, wasn’t he saying the same thing?

“Yes. I just said it would be more tolerable if there are people training with them.” Li Lanfeng shrugged. His expression was extremely innocent. “I just said this sentence at the end.”

“Haha, so you’re saying Luo Chao and Han Xuya were enlightened by your words and decided to train the maids?” Ling Lan scoffed. “Do you think I’m so easy to fool?”

“No. I might be able to fool anyone else, but I can’t fool you, Ling Lan.” Li Lanfeng sighed. “Aren’t you the one who understands me the most?”

Ling Lan just looked at him coldly.

“Fine, I concede. I did say something else.” Li Lanfeng raised his hands to surrender. He felt bitter in his heart. How frustrating. Why can’t I hide anything from him? Rabbit really understood him very well. He might be unable to escape from his grasp in his entire life.

“I told them I miss the Lingtian Independent Army. If we were there, they would be able to lead their army of females to challenge the other battle teams for some fun. They won’t be so bored there.” Li Lanfeng finally told her the truth.

“I knew the root of the problem lies in you.” Ling Lan felt strange that Han Xuya and Luo Chao would suddenly have the idea of training the maids in the palace when they never thought about this for the past three months. Now, she found the culprit who foiled her breakfast and lunch in the past few days.action

“But, why did you suggest such a bad idea?” Ling Lan felt speechless. The maids all went to train, leaving no one behind to cook until it was late afternoon. If Li Lanfeng didn’t help with her breakfast and lunch, she would have to resort to using her non-existent cooking skills. Ling Lan felt her heart clogging just thinking about it.

“I didn’t expect you to agree.” Li Lanfeng pulled a long face. He looked as if he really did mention it casually.

“You’ve already written such a good proposal. How can I not agree to it?” Ling Lan felt even more frustrated. If you didn’t want it to happen, why would you write such a thorough proposal? She couldn’t even find a reason to reject them.

“That’s because you will be looking at it.” Li Lanfeng appeared even more innocent. “If I didn’t write it properly, you might think that my skills have decreased. I will feel very wronged if you really think that.”

“Huh? Your skills are decreasing? I’ll thank you if you stop being so good at shamelessly scheming against people.” Ling Lan rolled her eyes at Li Lanfeng with an annoyed expression. His words were too fake. He obviously created this mess but he shamelessly denied it.

“Thank you for your compliment.” Ling Lan was completely defeated by Li Lanfeng’s proud look when he ‘complimented’ his shamelessness.
