The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 4 Li Yan

At this time, the battle in the house had ended. This was a hall with more than ten corpses lying on the ground in the hall.

The blood flowed all over the ground, which was very dazzling, and the cold air was filled with a bloody smell.

At the staircase leading to the second floor, the imperial spearman who rushed into the house first stopped and looked at Li Meng, as if asking for the next order.

Behind Li Meng, the other three imperial spearmen dragged the corpse at the door in and closed the door.

"Guard downstairs..."

After saying this, Li Meng walked towards the staircase.

The imperial spearman at the staircase returned to the hall and began to clean up the battlefield.

Following the stairs, Li Meng walked to the second floor...

The upstairs was very quiet, silent, and relatively dark.

There was a flickering fire in the hall on the second floor, but the third floor was dark.

In the sound of "dong dong" footsteps, Li Meng walked up step by step, also stimulating someone's nerves.

As the last step was taken, Li Meng came to the second floor hall with flickering fire.

"You... who are you?"

As soon as he entered the hall, Li Meng heard a panicked and timid voice.

Looking for the voice, Li Meng saw two familiar figures on the sofa.

It was You Lan and her daughter Li Yan. At this time, the two were curled up on the sofa. You Lan hugged her daughter tightly, and there was only timidity and panic in her eyes when she looked at him.

Looking at the two, Li Meng breathed a sigh of relief and took off his helmet.

"Sister You, it's me..."

Although You Lan is the adopted sister of her mother and should be called aunt, the original owner of this body has called her sister since she was a child.

Naturally, she inherited this body and the memory of the original owner, so she still has to call her "sister"

"Xiao... Xiao Meng?"

Looking at the strange man in armor at the stairs and the familiar face, You Lan was stunned and a little bit unbelievable.

Is he Xiao Meng?

You Lan was not sure. The Xiao Meng she had just met was not like this. His temperament was completely different.

The Xiao Meng before was a little cowardly, but the Xiao Meng in front of him gave people a sense of confidence and strength.

With a slight smile, Li Meng came to the sofa and looked at the two people curled up in a corner of the sofa and hugged each other, saying: "Sister You, didn't I see you just now? How come you don't recognize Xiao Meng so soon?"

Putting the helmet on the sofa, Li Meng sat next to You Lan, grabbed You Lan's hand, and whispered: "I am still me, Sister You, there is no need to doubt. From now on, I am still your Xiao Meng..."

Yes, he is Xiao Meng. At this moment, You Lan believes that the young man in front of her is Xiao Meng.

Staring at Xiao Meng beside her, You Lan's eyes are full of doubts.

What happened to Xiao Meng? He has changed too much. Cheng Shengwei has so many men. How did he get here?

Is everyone downstairs dead?

The sound of fighting just now...

You Lan's face changed, and she hurriedly said: "Xiao Meng, go quickly and hide. You killed Cheng Shengwei's men, he will not let you go..."

Shaking his head, looking at the anxious Sister You, Li Meng comforted: "Sister You, don't worry, I am not alone. This time I came to take back everything that belongs to me. You two are my only relatives. From now on, I will protect you well and will never let you be bullied again. Sister You, I promise you that I will not let Cheng Shengwei live."

Looking at Li Meng in a daze, You Lan didn't know what to say. Xiao Meng had changed, becoming strange, and also becoming more secure.

You Lan didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, but there was one thing that was beyond doubt, the person in front of him was Xiao Meng.

Rubbing Li Yan's little head who looked at him timidly, Li Meng whispered: "What, Yan'er forgot her brother?"

He called You Lan sister, but You Lan's daughter called him brother. This relationship was a bit messy, each calling each other.

Brother?

Looking at Li Meng timidly, Li Yan's eyes lit up, as if she thought of something.

"Brother..."

With a joyful cry, the little girl broke free from her mother's arms and threw herself into Li Meng's arms.

With a slight smile, Li Meng rubbed the little girl's head in his arms and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years, Yan'er has grown up."

The little girl raised her head, her face slightly red, and said unwillingly, "Brother, Yan'er has grown up, you can't touch my head anymore."

"Okay, okay, okay, no, no..."

As he said, Li Meng rubbed the little girl's head again.

Li Yan, this is the little girl's name, and she is also the daughter of Sister You and her husband. When her father and Sister You's husband were still alive, the two played together. Although they never met again in the following years, Li Meng has not forgotten this little girl.

After a while, Li Yan sat obediently beside Li Meng.

Although she was not very old, the little girl looked very well-behaved. She was wearing a blue dress and a pair of white cotton socks on her legs. She sat quietly beside Li Meng, her face flushed, and her eyes occasionally stole glances at her brother. When Li Meng looked at her, she quickly lowered her head, which was indescribably cute.

She was very cute and beautiful. She perfectly inherited You Lan's genes and would be a beauty when she grew up.

But it was not a good thing for a woman to be too beautiful in this world. Take You Lan for example. Her life was not smooth sailing. She lost her husband when she was young and had to depend on her sister. A few years later, her brother-in-law died again. In order to survive, she had to follow Cheng Shengwei again. This lasted for seven years.

Why did You Lan's husband die? Why did Li Meng's father die? Sister You didn't know, but Li Meng knew.

All these sufferings came from Sister You's beauty. If Sister You wasn't beautiful, she wouldn't be targeted by Cheng Shengwei. If she wasn't targeted by Cheng Shengwei, her father might not have died, Sister You's husband wouldn't have died, and even her mother would have lived well.

But there are no ifs in this world. Things have already happened, and time can't go back.

Some truths will become Li Meng's eternal secrets. For Sister You, this truth is too heavy for her.

Cheng Shengwei must die. This is Li Meng's revenge. It's something he must do, and now, the road to revenge has just begun.

Looking at Li Yan's well-behaved appearance, Li Meng smiled slightly and rubbed her little head.

"Brother..."

Li Yan held Li Meng's hand in her arms with both hands and shouted unwillingly.

With a slight smile, Li Meng said softly: "Yan'er, you are my sister. In my eyes, you will always be a little girl. Even if you grow up and become a big girl, you still need to touch your head."

As he said, Li Meng stretched out his other hand and rubbed her little head in Li Yan's eyes.

With a red face, Li Yan let go of Li Meng's hand and sat quietly, very well-behaved, letting the hand on her head ravage her head.

Watching the two people playing, You Lan's face was only gentle, and she did not make a sound to disturb them.
