Chapter 694: WELCOME TO HELL

[A/N: It's a request. Please don't kill me after reading the next few chapters. I know it might be hard for you because you people love Mu Lan more than I do, but if I don't point out her past clearly, you won't understand her feelings and why she will take revenge on those who hurt her in the past. After all, the Li Brothers are not..... oops! I nearly gave you a spoiler! Enjoy! ;p ]

Slap!

The hard slap fell on Hua Lan's right cheek. She never experienced something like that before. Her body was thrown in the corner by the forceful hit. Her pale cheek became puffy instantly. Five fingers were sharply visible as red marks.

She was startled and puzzled at the same time. She lightly cupped her right cheek which was stinging and burning. Her eyes were filled with tears. She couldn't utter a single sound in fear. Her lips trembled and cheeks became wet by tears. Her eyes were looking at the pair of furious eyes.

Zhuang Lei was breathing soundly. Her chest was going up and down as she breathed.

"Wretched girl! It's all because of you. It's all your fault!" She hissed.

A week ago, little Lan convinced her mother that she would go with her aunt and nothing bad will happen to her. She went back to her house where her parents were. Nero sent her there secretly. She hid her father's diary in her room as it was instructed and locked the house from outside. Then, she hid the key as well. She could neither sell the house nor could she rent it.

Nick let his secretary Nala take care of the rest. Nala let her stern husband take care of the house. Her husband was a prominent lawyer who had his own lawyer firm. They made a legal document to buy the house.

Of course, a three years old child couldn't do anything, so she had to wait for her legal guardian, her aunt, Zhuang Lei.

As a greedy woman she was, she would never agree to it. There were too much of valuable items in that house. She began to make trouble. Even, she tried to break the door of the house. When she didn't agree, her husband Hua Rong started having problems in his business. Soon she got a warning letter.

As if that would stop her. Her greed was more than her love for her husband. Since she didn't listen, Nala's husband ordered someone hit to hurt Hua Rong.

After Hua Rong had a car accident and the business was going bankrupt, then Zhuang Lei agreed to sell her sister's house. She realized that if she kept lingering on that house, she would lose everything. Moreover, it was written that the house would be sold in two billion dollars. There was no way she would miss an opportunity to get that money.

All these happened in one week, after little Lanie went to her aunt's house. She was pampered past seven days with no boundary. Moreover, she was being adopted and was given the title Hua. Today, Zhuang Lei and little Lanie sighed the legal papers.ChapterMid();

Nala and her husband got up from their seats.

Zhuang Lei was anticipating to get two billion dollars. But the couple had no interest in giving the money.

"Hold it right there." Zhuang Lei screamed. "Where are you going without giving me the money?"

Nala turned around and looked at her. She coldly said, "Why would we give you the money? The house belonged to the kid, we transferred the money to her bank account. We have made sure that only she can have the access to her account. She can use her money for her education, food, health checkup, clothes and entertainment. Her money can only be used by her and no one else. Oh, I forgot to mention that there are two agents those will help her to use her money. Suppose, she is injured and taken to the hospital, the agents will take care of her expenses. You have nothing to fear. They won't mistreat her."

After that, Nala gave Zhuang Lei a pleasant smile and left.

'Everything is gone. The money and the house. All because of this wretched girl.' Zhuang Lei burst in anger and slapped Hua Lan. "Wretched girl! It's all because of you. It's all your fault!"

Seven days of living in paradise had come to an end. Welcome to the hell.

Hua Lan kept looking at her aunt. 'What is happening? Why did she hit me? Papa didn't say anything about hitting? What should I do? Is this what everyone calls bullying?'

Zhuang Lei instructed her housemaid, "Don't let her eat anything. Because of her my husband is in the hospital. Let her starve."

Hua Lan's cousin Hua Mei looked at Hua Lan's swollen cheek with satisfaction. Even though they both three years old, their thinking level and attitudes were totally different.

Hua Mei followed her mother and went out of the house. She had to go to the hospital to see her father. Her couldn't play with her friends today. Since her mother said that it was her cousin's fault than it was her (Hua Lan) fault.

Hua Lan sat there for a couple of minutes and then she stood up and walked into her room. She didn't know that it was just the start.

From the next day, no one called her to eat, no one took her to shopping, even Hua Mei never played with her. One servant once tried to save some food for her, but Hua Mei told her mother when she saw that servant took the food to Hua Lan's room.

The servant lost her job that very day and Hua Lan was taken to the small room back in the house. It was more like a store room. She was put there. Her clothes and everything she had had been taken from her. She was locked in that room.

While lying down on the dusty floor, the little princess who never faced hardship, started mumbling, "Papa..... I'm hungry.... Papa.... It's cold...."
