Chereads / Conquered by Love / Chapter 17 - Dreamland

Chapter 17 - Dreamland

Li Wei took a step ahead. Someone had to be responsible and looking at his sister's condition, it was very unlikely that she would be able to handle it. They were extremely egotistic to think that they could fool Yan Julong.

"We requested to have two positions for the internship here, and we were accepted." Li Wei was positive that no matter how high the Yan family's position was, they still had to give some face to the Li family's elders.

This caused Yan Julong irritation. The young lad believed that behaving boldly can solve every problem, but the poor kid forgot that in front of a beast, one should think about their survival first.

The corner of his lip tilted upwards. It was a smile and not a smile, at the same time, perfected over the years. Yan Julong moved forward, hitting his coffee table. The sound echoed throughout the room.

"Lui Cheng, they assume we are fools"

The tone carried an air of pride in it. The air encircling Yan Julong grew suffocating, so cold that a shiver ran down over Li Wei.

Were they really viewing Yan Empire as fools? Li Wei remembered, his father's words, where he repeatedly urged them to drop the idea, but they were sure that it would work. Yan Julong was not a person to mess with. He was a ruthless businessman who, when entered the business world at the age of 21, rocked the businesses altogether. He took the Yan Empire to new heights, so high that none of the other families dared to be arrogant.

"Let me guess, this must be your plan," eyeing Li Wei through his thick eyelashes, Yan Julong was irritated. He had a lot of paperwork to take care of in a limited time frame. "Your father cannot be this foolish"

Mr. Li was a practical businessman, and for this reason, the Li family was able to withstand the ups and downs in business. One should know when to attack and when to retreat.

"You thought the Yan family, will at least give face, to the Li elders."

Li Wei's face turned white. The reason why they decided to go with the plan was because they knew Yan Julong never care about the interns. He is a strike ruler to be feared, but never the one who would be associated with people having temporary positions of ants.

"Since your family thinks that they are so powerful that my employee should obey your request," Yan Julong motioned his fingers and Lui Cheng ran out to retrieve something "You guys can also provide for their medical expenses and for their family's survival, right?"

Two bodyguards accompanied Lu Cheng inside the room. They brought in two bodies covered in blood, their faces were unrecognizable, with a few dislocated, and a few broken bones. They were unable to stand on their own and when the hands supporting them from their arms were removed, they both dripped down at the ground.

The color bleeds from the sibling's face. Li Na, who was crying moments ago, was now shaking all over. She felt like vomiting and sure to the feeling, she really did. Her legs lost their support, and she thrust down like a lifeless person. This screen will make her have nightmares, until the day she dies. To make matters worst, she knew the two bodies. They were the ones, that approved their application.

"Weak" Yan Julong scowled.

Wasn't this a normal human reaction? One is ought to be scared, in this condition. The love and affection that Li Na held in her heart towards Yan Julong were replaced by fear and panic.

Rumors surrounding him were always bad, but one look at his face, and all the words were overlooked. How can a person this handsome and charming would be worse? Li Na fell in love, moreover, her family background along with her beauty, gave her the confidence that she could achieve this unreachable fantasy. Only if she knew that there is no smoke without fire.

Her dreams were scattered, in the most horrifying way. She felt choked, arriving at her senses, she made a rush and left the room. She wanted to breathe fresh air and return back to her dreamland, where everything and everyone was the way they were supposed to be.

Li Wei saw the changes in his sister, but he could not move. It was as if he was stuck in a place, he always knew most of the rumors concerning Yan Julong were true but he still…

"Our policy will not change, either one of you will report tomorrow," Yan Julong got up from the seat and made his way towards his working desk. Collecting his things and coat, Yan Julong stepped towards his door, to leave his office as if nothing happened.

"Close the door when you leave,"

"And Mr. Li, tell your father, his company will pay for his daughter's foolishness."

Lui Cheng urged Li Wei to leave along with two barely breathing body in his car, before following his boss.

Yan Julong avoided going at the old mansion and lived in a spacious penthouse at the higher side of the city. It was his own personal paradise.

Studying the report he was astonished, Xiao Lienji did a great job translating it, he was uncertain about her, but now he thinks the girl will be useful in the future. He kept the pages on the table and glanced farther. Taking in the view, Yan Julong turned around and entered his room. His house was on the 25th floor covered in two way glass throughout, giving him the necessary privacy.

He sat on his bed, and soon an annoyed face came into his mind. This is the first day he meets her, but bothering Xiao Lienji gave him an unknown type of pleasure that he had never experienced before.

She was not typically beautiful, he had seen many beauties before, but she had a peculiar charm in her. She made friends very easily, and everyone on the floor was talking about her.

Ye Mei specifically mentioned the good work done by Xiao Lienji, on translation, something that Ye Mei has never done before.

'The following days will be exciting, for sure.'
