"What happened?" Yue Manlan looked puzzled. "Who did it? They must have an audacious nerve!"
As the young master of the Lan family, Lan Qingyan's position was unshakable in normal times. Even if someone dared to make a move, they wouldn't dare to be so ruthless as to directly sever her arm.
"It's all that wretched Bai Li Hongzhuang! I will double the repayment for everything she has done!" Lan Qingyan's expression darkened, and her gaze turned fiercely cold and malicious.
She remembered the pain of her severed arm vividly, and the slap on her heart was even more unforgettable.
Lan Jingkuang looked at Lan Qingyan's appearance, his gloomy expression still not dissipating.
"If you still want revenge, then pull yourself together now! If you continue to evade after making a mistake, it's you who will suffer the loss!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Qingyan's face was not pleasant, but she knew that Lan Jingkuang was speaking the truth.
Perhaps after her return, the entire Lan Family had already been thrown into turmoil. If she continued to hide, it would likely invite criticism from everyone.
She couldn't be willful like this anymore...
"What should I do now?" Lan Qingyan helplessly looked at Lan Jingkuang. At this point, she was confused and didn't know what to do.
"Go to the council hall!" Lan Jingkuang's face remained cold, and his gaze towards Lan Qingyan was filled with anger. However, after seeing that Lan Qingyan had finally come to her senses, his demeanor eased slightly.
"I will notify the elders."
Lan Qingyan nodded, knowing that Lan Jingkuang could be terrifying when he got angry, and she didn't dare to retort.
"Adjust your attitude! As the young master, you must bear the responsibilities of a young master. Only then can you prevent the elders from being disappointed in you. Do you understand?"
Before leaving, Lan Jingkuang left behind these words with a stern expression and then turned to leave.
After Lan Jingkuang left, Yue Manlan expressed her concern to Lan Qingyan, "Qingyan, your father is like this, don't take it to heart. Your arm will definitely be restored, don't worry."
"I know," Lan Qingyan's displeasure was still evident on her face. "I'll go to the council hall first!"
Lan Jingkuang only cared about his position, even though she had suffered such a severe injury, she hadn't heard a single word of concern from him. She had already understood this long ago.
But she didn't care.
When she truly became the head of the family, she wouldn't pay any attention to Lan Jingkuang either!
Yue Manlan wanted to say something more, but Lan Qingyan didn't have the interest to continue the conversation and left directly.
Yue Manlan was left in the room, watching the two figures leave in quick succession, feeling helpless.
Lan Qingyan's personality was very similar to Lan Jingkuang's. Now, whether facing Lan Jingkuang or Lan Qingyan, she could only feel helpless.
When Lan Qingyan arrived at the council hall, Lan Jingkuang had already informed the elders to gather there.
"I apologize, elders. I left earlier because of my bad mood, I'm truly sorry." Lan Qingyan was the first to apologize and bowed to the elders, which slightly improved their expressions.
Lan Qingyan's previous disregard had chilled their hearts. If she continued to behave like this and evade any future issues, then the Lan Family would have no future.
In comparison, Lan Jingkuang was more suited to be the family head.
Unfortunately, the family head was unwilling to pass on the position to him.
