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

Chapter 1091 I Trust You!

“Sometimes, I would think to myself what if you could just transfer a little bit of your power to me. Wouldn’t that be great...,” Li Lanfeng said mockingly as he smiled with a hint of despair in his eyes. He knew what he said was impossible because even if there was actually a way to transfer on’s powers to someone else, Ling Lan would never be willing to do that. If Ling Lan was willing to do so, then Ling Lan wouldn’t be the Ling Lan who he trusted dearly and someone who he would willingly die for.

“You can’t be thinking like that, Li Lanfeng!” Ling Lan said seriously as she could feel Li Lanfeng’s thoughts were turning towards a dangerous direction.

“Oh my god! Boss, is he becoming gay?!” Little Four shouted out loud in Ling Lan’s mindscape.

“Shut up!” Ling Lan instantly smacked Little Four, who wanted to add fuel the fire, to the ground.

Sh*t, she was still trying to resolve Li Lanfeng’s odd behavior. She didn’t need Little Four to make the situation worse.

“I know... I know what I’m thinking is not right, but my heart aches when I see you hurt yourself for others, even for me!” Li Lanfeng clawed his chest as if he was trying to tear away that feeling in his heart. He thought of the time when Ling Lan force herself to restrain her pressure even if it would injure her own body again to help Han Xuya advance. His heart ached for her pain.

“Every single time you get injured, I would always think about why you must care for that many people. If you only cared for me, you would never be injured. Then, I wouldn’t be sad and worried anymore...” Li Lanfeng’s sobbing yet smiling expression made Ling Lan shudder.

“I desperately tried to become strong. I really did... Although it was to stand above the others, my main reason in doing so is to fight alongside you and protect the person I most want to protect...” Li Lanfeng finally revealed a pained smile on his face. “Ling Lan, you definitely will laugh at my overconfidence because the person I most want to protect is you. You! Ling Lan!”

Two streaks of tears slowly ran down his fleshy cheeks, making the current Li Lanfeng undoubted this generation’s most beautiful person. Even when he was crying, his beauty was otherworldly, and it made those around him feel deeply sorry for him.

Ling Lan looked at Li Lanfeng silently. Right as Li Lanfeng thought Ling Lan was looking at him with disdain, Ling Lan suddenly spoke up, “I know that!”

Li Lanfeng raised his head stunned as Ling Lan reached out her right hand and softly caressed his face. She used her index finger to collect a single crystal-like teardrop from his beautiful face.

Ling Lan looked towards the crystal-like teardrop on her index finger and said slowly, “In the time that we’ve known each other, how can I not know about your personality? Although you seem to be warm and easy to get along with, you are actually very guarded against outsiders and someone who doesn’t easily open up to people.”

After Ling Lan said all this, she suddenly raised her head and looked directly Li Lanfeng’s red eyes. “You are even guarded towards your little brother, Li Shiyu.”

Li Lanfeng’s expression instantly froze. He didn’t think that secret he was hiding for his whole life was clearly seen through by Ling Lan.

“I don’t need to mention about that idiot Li Yingjie who knows absolutely nothing, right? You treat him as if he doesn’t exist,” continued Ling Lan, “I knew about your personality long ago. Although I don’t know why the first successor of the Li family is so stubborn, I am very aware about your feelings towards me.” action

After saying all that, Ling Lan turned her gaze towards her index finger again. She flicked her index finger softly and the teardrop vanished into the air.

Ling Lan smirked slightly and looked down towards Li Lanfeng with a hint of playfulness in her eyes. “That’s because I know our friendship is real, and that is all I need.”

Li Lanfeng’s eyelashes quivered slightly, his eyes brimming with light. Countless emotions stacked were flowing in him, yet he couldn’t force a word out of his mouth.

“Plus, I have to tell you that you’re not the same as them to to me!” Ling Lan pointed towards her heart. She didn’t want Li Lanfeng to keep thinking about these things which would cause him to inexplicably go down the wrong path.

Li Lanfeng raised one of his eyebrows in confusion.

“Qi Long, Luo Lang, Luo Chao, Han Xuya and the others all grew up with me. To me, they’re brothers and sisters that need my loving care. But you, you are my friend, my confidant, I trust you!”

Those final words made Li Lanfeng’s whole body tremble. When he finally stopped trembling, the biggest and brightest smile blossomed on his face.

“You also have to remember to take into account that you and I are both soldiers, becoming injured is inevitable in this line of work so don’t make a fuss about such a small matter. The Li Lanfeng I know is a godly strategist who can turn losses into victories from thousands of miles away...” After saying this, Ling Lan slowly closed her eyes, “Now I need to ask you to do something for me. I’m about to break through. Protect me.”

“Okay...” Right as Li Lanfeng answered, he felt a soft force pushing him towards the door of the secret room. Immediately after, a large pressure erupted within the room. Li Lanfeng immediately activated his domain to block off the immense pressure.

Li Lanfeng knew that Ling Lan was afraid that she might lose control and injure him. That was why she sent him to the position near the door so that he could immediately escape the room if things went awry.

It was this hidden care within Ling Lan’s dominant personality that he wanted more of and wished to keep it all for himself.

Li Lanfeng stared blankly towards Ling Lan, who was breaking through to the imperial realm far away from him. Although Ling Lan’s words made his heart no longer ache, it still felt empty. It was as though the words Ling Lan had said to him could not satisfy him...

He originally thought that before he could alter his fate from the course of the Phoenix Thrall Fate, his heart wouldn’t be held up by anything else. He didn’t think that...

The Phoenix Thrall Fate!

A lightning bolt suddenly struck in Li Lanfeng’s mind and his body began to shake intensely. His expression was filled with fear as he mumbled, “Phoenix Thrall Fate, Phoenix Thrall Fate, it’s actually the Phoenix Thrall Fate... The change of fate that I wished for my entire life. Could it be my own self-binding cocoon?”

Li Lanfeng was a genius. The reason he didn’t think of it before was because he was blinded by what was in front of him. However, once he cleared himself from his willful dream, he knew who was the person that was the closest existence to being his king.

“Ugh!” A mouthful of blood suddenly shot out from Li Lanfeng’s mouth. With different emotions constantly clashing against each other in his mind, Li Lanfeng lost control over his domain and was instantly injured by Ling Lan’s force of presence.

Li Lanfeng looked towards Ling Lan and a savage look appeared on his face for a second. He reached out his right hand. If he were to attack Ling Lan at this important moment, Ling Lan would definitely be severely injured from the recoil of the uncompleted advancement of her domain concept. Now was without a doubt the best opportunity for him to get rid of Ling Lan and change his fate.

Phoenix Thrall Fate, Phoenix Thrall Fate, Phoenix Thrall Fate... As long as he got rid of his destined king, he would be able to change his fate!

The savageness within Li Lanfeng’s eyes became thicker and thicker, and killing intent slowly appeared within them.

Wait, what if it wasn’t him?

Li Lanfeng’s savage gaze slowly began to turn into a more compassionate gaze but it suddenly turned back into the savage gaze again. This change in his gaze was constantly occurring for quite a while. He was struggling internally about his decision.

He remembered his and Ling Lan’s past. How she taught him the meditation technique, helped him with mecha piloting, stood in front of him during a dangerous situation...

“I trust you!” Ling Lan’s voice suddenly exploded beside Li Lanfeng’s ears.

“Ugh!” Li Lanfeng spat out another mouthful of blood. This time however, it wasn’t because of Ling Lan’s force of presence, but rather Li Lanfeng injuring himself.

His eyes became clear once again. The devil in his heart almost made him do something he would regret for the rest of his life. Luckily, he found himself again.
