Lin Yu rushed through Room 1205, tumbling and crawling.
The door of Room 1205 was open, and Gu Chenan and Xiao Yajie stood at the doorway, relishing the sight of Lin Yu's disheveled appearance.
As for Gu Chenan, he felt a sense of satisfaction as long as Lin Yu suffered.
Xiao Yajie, on the other hand, was delighted to see Lin Yu's plan exposed and him being beaten up. He had deceived her for so long, and now she felt a sense of satisfaction seeing him finally pay the price.
The group chased after Lin Yu and entered the emergency staircase.
"Don't run!"
Lin Yu turned around and saw that these people had caught up with him. With determination in his eyes, he bit his lip and hugged his knees, burying his head in his legs. He rolled down the stairs like a curled-up hedgehog.
Rolling down might result in a broken bone, but if these people caught him and pulled him back by his hair, it would be even worse.
Seeing Lin Yu's reckless behavior, everyone was shocked.
He was ruthless, too ruthless.
After rolling down the emergency staircase, Lin Yu felt like his back was about to break.
But he couldn't stay there now; those people could catch up with him at any moment.
So he struggled to stand up, staggering as he walked into the parking lot.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he opened the car door and sat in his BMW.
That was close!
If he hadn't risked his life, he would have been finished today.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, and his jaw muscles bulged.
Gu Chenan! It's you again!
How dare you set me up!
Just wait, one day I, Lin Yu, will personally kill you!
...
"Master Xiao, Lin Yu... he ran away."
Inside the room, several ancient martial arts experts returned disappointedly.
"What?"
Xiao Jian stood up angrily upon hearing this. "You chased him with so many people, and he still managed to escape?"
"That Lin Yu is really fearless. He rolled down the emergency staircase, and we couldn't catch up."
"Ah?" Xiao Jian was also surprised. This Lin Yu was truly audacious.
"Let's go and inform Young Master Gu," he said.
Room 1205.
Gu Chenan stood by the French window, watching Lin Yu's car quickly drive away.
"Young Master Gu."
At that moment, Xiao Jian walked in with the others.
Gu Chenan turned around and asked, "What happened?"
"Lin Yu... he ran away," Xiao Jian said, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
After all, in his view, Gu Chenan had lured Lin Yu and the Black Owl's assassins into danger, but he had failed to kill Lin Yu. It was indeed hard to justify.
"Hmm." Gu Chenan nodded, not surprised.
After all, Lin Yu was the protagonist; he couldn't die so easily.
Even if he jumped straight from the twelfth floor, he wouldn't die on the spot.
"Young Master Gu, aren't you angry?" Xiao Jian was surprised.
Only then did Gu Chenan realize that while he knew Lin Yu was the protagonist, these people did not.
Moreover, considering his bad boy persona, even if he wasn't angry, he had to show an angry expression.
He immediately put on a look of controlled anger and looked disdainfully at the martial arts experts present. "So many of you couldn't catch an injured Lin Yu? Ridiculous!"
The group exchanged glances and then spoke up.
"Young... Young Master, we're really sorry. That kid Lin Yu was so reckless that he rolled down the stairs."
"Gu Chenan was able to expose the Black Owl killer and Lin Yu, which amazed us. It was our fault that we couldn't catch Lin Yu."
Upon hearing everyone's comments, Gu Chenan nodded and said, "Alright, now that we know who the mastermind is, whether we kill them or not is not a big issue."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.
"Yes, Gu Chenan is right."
"That's right, as long as we stay alert to Lin Yu from now on."
The group breathed a sigh of relief and immediately agreed.
In their eyes, they had mocked and ridiculed Gu Chenan before, and now they had failed to handle the situation.
Surely, Gu Chenan would take this opportunity to humiliate them.
However, to their surprise, while Gu Chenan was angry, he had no intention of humiliating them. His magnanimity and generosity were truly admirable!
Instantly, everyone regretted their previous mockery and ridicule of Gu Chenan.
Compared to Gu Chenan, their behavior was petty!
At the same time, Gu Chenan's impression in everyone's minds was elevated.
A true gentleman doesn't hold grudges; he embraces all things like a mighty river!
Gu Chenan is indeed a true gentleman!
"Since Gu Chenan has said so, let's leave it at that," Xiao Jian also spoke up.
Similarly, Xiao Jian was amazed by Gu Chenan's magnanimity.
After all, in his view, Gu Chenan had helped the Xiao family without expecting anything in return, even willing to offend the Black Owl.
But their own martial arts experts hadn't managed to kill Lin Yu yet. If it were himself, he would definitely be furious.
But Gu Chenan?
He was so calm and composed. Admirable, truly admirable!
"Alright, let's leave it at that," Gu Chenan said.
"That won't do, I, Xiao Jian, must express my gratitude to Gu Chenan!" Xiao Jian spoke with great determination, "Gu Chenan, for your great kindness, feel free to ask for anything you want!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yajie, who had been quietly listening on the side, raised her eyebrows in anticipation, looking at Gu Chenan.
But Gu Chenan waved his hand and said, "No need, I've said before, I'm happy to help."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yajie's eyes dimmed.
"No, no, I, Xiao Jian, must show my gratitude. Gu Chenan has saved my life, how can I not show my gratitude?" Xiao Jian insisted.
Although Gu Chenan didn't really want anything, seeing Xiao Jian so persistent, he casually said, "Okay, I haven't decided what I want yet. I'll let you know when I do."
"No problem!" Xiao Jian nodded.
...
After chatting with Xiao Jian for a while, Gu Chenan left the hotel in his car.
Xiao Jian and his group also left the Xiao family in a grand manner.
At this moment, Liang Bufan arrived at the Xiao family's residence.
Although he was also one of the martial artists associated with Xiao Jian, he didn't usually come around, so Xiao Jian didn't invite him to the hotel this time.
"Master of the Xiao family," Liang Bufan stood up and greeted with a nod.
Then he entered the side hall with the martial artists.
His mind was filled with thoughts of how to deal with Gu Chenan, so after entering the side hall and chatting with everyone for a while, as soon as Gu Chenan was mentioned, he immediately spoke up:
"Gu Chenan from Donghai is simply too arrogant. Last time when I went to Donghai, he actually humiliated our Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle."
"He can humiliate me, but insulting the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle is going too far!"
"I, Liang Bufan, must seek revenge for this grudge!"
Liang Bufan exaggerated his words. Although Gu Chenan only humiliated him, he wanted to involve the entire Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle.
Upon hearing his words, the people blinked and exchanged glances.
Clearly, they didn't believe him.
After all, Gu Chenan is a gentleman. Even when we mocked him before, he never retaliated. How could he possibly insult the Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle?
"So, what do you intend to do?" someone asked tentatively.
Thinking that the person was swayed by his words, Liang Bufan looked around and whispered, "I have a plan that can make Gu Chenan kneel and beg for mercy from our Suzhou Ancient Martial Arts Circle!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd furrowed their brows.
