The Apocalypse of the Book: So What If I'm Just a Cannon Fodder? I Can Still Have Fun

114: Lion’s DemandSu Ran didn’t understand why she couldn’t ask Yao Yin for help. She looked at Li Mei with a puzzled expression and asked, ”Why can’t we ask him for people? He has many strong people around him. Wouldn’t it be more convenient for us to ask him?”

Li Mei looked at Su Ran with a ’hate iron for not becoming steel’ expression, thinking she must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

”If you ask Yao Yin for people to assassinate Wu Yao, aren’t you telling Su Lie what you’re doing?”

”You’re really too stupid.”

”How did I give birth to such an idiot?”

Li Mei pointed at Su Ran, looking displeased.

Su Ran was greatly hurt by Li Mei’s criticism.

She had never spoken to her like that before. Now... Su Ran lowered her head, feeling her heart was wounded.

After Li Mei finished speaking, she seemed to realize that what she had just said was a bit inappropriate.

She looked up at Su Ran, who was full of grievances, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

However, for the sake of her plan, she felt it was better to appease Su Ran first.

She forced a smile, a fake one.

”Ranran, Mom was just anxious for a moment and spoke too quickly.”

”You’re not stupid; you just haven’t experienced these things before.”

”Now that the apocalypse has arrived, it’s no longer the peaceful era we lived in.”

”Mom just hopes you can use your brain more and not be as naive as you used to be.”

Li Mei reached out and patted Su Ran’s shoulder, speaking gently.

Hearing Li Mei say this, Su Ran felt much better.

Perhaps, as Li Mei said, she was just too impatient for a moment, which made her speak carelessly.

Li Mei’s apology hit Su Ran’s fragile heart, and her expression improved significantly.

”Mom, I understand. I’ll think things through first from now on.”

”But if we don’t ask Yao Yin, who should we ask?”

Su Ran looked at Li Mei with a bewildered expression; she truly didn’t know who to ask.

Everyone else was too weak; if she sent one, they wouldn’t come back.

Now, many people refused when they heard she was looking for someone to take on the task of killing Wu Yao.

Even if she offered them more food, they still refused.

Su Ran was extremely annoyed by this.

”I heard there’s a powerful person on the twenty-third floor, but I don’t know if he’s willing to help.”

”Ranran, why don’t you go ask him?”

Li Mei thought of the information she had gathered recently and looked at Su Ran with a smile, asking.

Su Ran was just worrying about not finding anyone, so when she heard Li Mei say that, she immediately agreed.

She forgot why Li Mei, knowing this information, didn’t go herself but asked her to go.

After Su Ran left, Li Mei smiled and also departed.

The person living on the twenty-third floor was a pervert; anyone who wanted him to do something had to satisfy some of his special fetishes.

This was why Li Mei knew such a person existed but didn’t dare to go herself, instead sending Su Ran.

She had Su Lie; if Su Lie knew she was doing such a thing, he would definitely abandon her.

Su Ran wasn’t afraid. She had heard about Su Ran’s behavior here recently and thought that since her reputation was already gone, going to the twenty-third floor to please a man shouldn’t be a big deal.

Thinking of this, Li Mei felt no guilt at all.

When Su Mianmian saw their plan through the surveillance, her mouth twitched involuntarily.

”Li Mei, this mother, is truly ruthless.”

”Doesn’t she care about Su Ran’s reputation at all?”

”Although Su Ran herself has no reputation left, the man on the twenty-third floor is rumored to have some special fetishes.”

Su Mianmian watched Su Ran walk upstairs, completely unguarded, and shook her head helplessly.

Did Su Ran know that she was about to enter a deep abyss this time?

And to be sent there by her own biological mother.

”Mianmian, why bother with Su Ran?”

”She’s just too foolish, which makes her easy to deceive.”

”If she were a little smarter, how could she not understand Li Mei’s hidden malicious intentions?”

Su Jinxuan looked at the helpless Su Mianmian and said sarcastically.

He genuinely looked down on Li Mei and Su Ran, so their scheming was just a show to him.

Su Jinxuan would only watch with cold eyes and wouldn’t feel sorry for either of them.

”I won’t bother with Su Ran; I just think she’s too stupid.”

”Do you think we should go and enlighten her, then watch her fight with her mother?”

”I feel like that would be quite fun too.”

Su Mianmian looked at Su Jinxuan excitedly.

Su Jinxuan looked at Su Mianmian’s excited expression and felt a chill around him.

He wondered if her thoughts were even more mischievous than his own.

He was the type to observe coldly, while she was the type to stir up trouble.

Thinking of this, Su Jinxuan couldn’t help but smile.

”Brother, do you think it’s feasible?”

”If not, then forget it.”

Su Mianmian saw Su Jinxuan smile, thinking he found her idea bad. She lowered her head, looking unhappy.

She thought her idea was quite good, but if Su Jinxuan didn’t think so, she wouldn’t force it.

”Yes, why wouldn’t it be feasible?”

”It’s better to let Wu Yao handle this matter.”

”This way, we might be able to infiltrate the inside.”

Su Jinxuan looked at Su Mianmian with a smile, triumphantly.

At first, Su Mianmian didn’t understand why Su Jinxuan said that, but then she realized he wanted Wu Yao to gain Su Ran’s favor and turn against Li Mei.

Su Jinxuan’s idea was brilliant!

Su Mianmian looked at Su Jinxuan with admiration, thinking his ability to draw inferences was excellent.

”Okay, then go and do it quickly.”

”However, I think it would be better to let Su Ran experience the terrifying methods of the person on the twenty-third floor first, and then have Wu Yao explain the truth to her.”

”Otherwise, how can she hate Li Mei even more?”

Su Mianmian smiled and said casually.

Su Jinxuan nodded, indicating he understood.

He didn’t stay long and quickly got up to find Wu Yao.

Wu Yao was somewhat interested when he heard his plan.

”A drama of turning against each other, I’m quite satisfied.”

”Don’t worry, I guarantee it will be executed perfectly.”

Wu Yao agreed with a smile.

Su Jinxuan nodded, telling him not to act rashly yet, and to wait until he informed him before going to find Su Ran.

Wu Yao naturally nodded in agreement.

During this time, he had either been trying to make his presence known to Li Mei and Su Ran or dealing with the people Su Ran sent, so he hadn’t had a good rest in a long time.

It was a good opportunity for him to rest while the person on the twenty-third floor tormented Su Ran.

When Su Ran arrived on the twenty-third floor, she felt a bad premonition in her heart.

However, to get rid of Wu Yao’s entanglement as soon as possible, she braced herself and knocked on the door of the person Li Mei had told her about.

As the door opened from inside, a rotten smell immediately assailed her.

Su Ran frowned; she didn’t understand how the person living inside could endure this smell.

She didn’t even want to go in.

”A little beauty who delivers herself to my door, how rare.”

The tall, rugged-looking man’s eyes lit up when he saw Su Ran at the door.

He hadn’t expected there to be a beauty who delivered herself these days, almost doubting if he was dreaming.

Usually, women were sent to him; this was the first time he saw one who came on her own, which was very interesting.

As Su Ran stood in front of him, a foul breath came from him when he spoke.

When she smelled it, she almost vomited.

It was simply too foul; how could this be a normal speaking smell?

Perhaps Su Ran’s expression of disgust was too obvious, and the man gradually grew impatient.

”I’m not one to force others. If you don’t have something to ask of me, leave now.”

”Don’t waste my time.”

The man finished speaking and tried to close the door.

Su Ran immediately panicked when she heard him getting impatient.

”I... I certainly have something to ask of you.”

”I want you to help me kill someone.”

Su Ran pushed the door, speaking with a sinister expression.

The man stopped when he heard her.

”Killing someone, I guess this person won’t be easy to kill.”

”I can help you, but you have to stay with me for three days and give me fifty catties of grain.”

The man made an exorbitant demand.

At first, he didn’t recognize who the person in front of him was, but now that they were closer, he recognized that this woman was the ’celebrity’ in this building.
