Entering the main hall.
Gu Chenan sat down on the sofa.
Today's events have completely eliminated any possibility of Lin Yu cozying up to the Xiao Family, the number one family in Suhang.
But Gu Chenan still can't let his guard down.
After all, Lin Yu is the protagonist. Without the Xiao Family, there are still several other major families in Suhang.
Even more so, the one who wanted Black Hawk to get rid of the Xiao Family was the Gong Family, another of the major families in Suhang.
So even if Lin Yu no longer has a chance to cozy up to the Xiao Family, he can still cozy up to other major families.
In short, in order to completely eliminate any possibility for Lin Yu to gain a foothold in Suhang, it can't be like in Donghai, where all the major families in Suhang need to stand on my side.
Only in this way can Lin Yu be left with no chance of gaining a foothold in Suhang.
"Young Master Gu, you're back?"
Just as Gu Chenan's thoughts drifted, Bai Yutian walked over carrying a plate of freshly cut fruit.
Gu Chenan looked Bai Yutian up and down.
Today she was wearing a white tight shirt and a black miniskirt, with a pair of white thigh-high socks on her legs and, surprisingly, a pair of black high heels with red soles on her feet.
In all the time he had spent with Bai Yutian, he had never seen her wear this kind of sexy high heels before. Seeing her wear them so suddenly made Gu Chenan's eyes light up.
[So this girl can wear shoes like this too?]
[I'll just make you put your red bottoms in the air and rest your legs on my shoulders.]
Previously, Gu Chenan didn't touch Bai Yutian because of Lin Yu, but now he had torn all ties with Lin Yu, so there was no need to worry about Lin Yu anymore.
So, Bai Yutian... was destined to be obtained.
Hearing Gu Chenan's thoughts, Bai Yutian was confused for a moment.
She repeated in her heart: red bottoms in the air, legs on shoulders.
Suddenly it dawned on her!
So... so that's what it meant?!
Instantly, a blush spread across her face.
"Are you thinking of changing jobs?" Gu Chenan asked.
Hearing this, Bai Yutian was startled, thinking Gu Chenan was going to fire her, and hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, I don't want to change."
Gu Chenan smiled slightly and beckoned Bai Yutian to come over.
Bai Yutian obediently sat down next to Gu Chenan, who casually placed his hand on her leg.
As he stroked, he said, "Why don't you stop being a cleaner and be my maid from now on?"
"Ah?"
Bai Yutian was slightly startled and pursed her lips. "But I've never been a maid before, I'm afraid I won't do a good job."
"That's fine," Gu Chenan picked up Bai Yutian's small feet and slowly slipped off her high heels, fondling them in his hands. "I'll have Ma Bing buy you a maid outfit first, then come to my room tonight and I'll teach you."
"Gulp~"
Bai Yutian swallowed and her heart pounded rapidly.
Is she really going to be devoured by Young Master Gu?
How exciting~
She nodded: "O-Okay."
Gu Chenan nodded in satisfaction: "Mm, good girl, you can go first."
"Okay."
Bai Yutian got up and put her shoes back on, but as soon as she took a step, she felt Gu Chenan's hand on her lower back.
Then it slowly moved downwards.
"Very perky," Gu Chenan gave it a light slap.
"Young Master Gu, I'll be going now." Bai Yutian's face instantly turned red and she hurried away.
Watching Bai Yutian's charming, delicate figure, Gu Chenan chuckled softly.
[This girl has seen everything she needed to see during the acupuncture practice, what's she being shy for now?]
Soon after, Ma Bing suddenly came to Gu Chenan.
"Young Master Gu, some people from the ancient martial arts circles in Suhang are here to visit, saying they have something to discuss with you."
The ancient martial arts circles?
Gu Chenan was a little puzzled.
He didn't have much contact with these people, so this sudden visit must be for some important matter.
"Let them in," he said.
Soon, some ancient martial artists whom Gu Chenan had seen at the Xiao residence came into the main hall.
"Young Master Gu."
"Greetings to you all," Gu Chenan got up to welcome them. "What brings you here today?"
The men glanced at each other, then one of them spoke up: "Do you happen to know Liang Bufan?"
Hearing this name, Gu Chenan raised his eyebrows.
He remembered the incident at Old Master Liu's place. He nodded and said, "Please sit down and tell me about it."
Soon, after hearing their account, Gu Chenan had a rough idea of the situation.
Liang Bufan said he had once insulted the entire Suhang martial arts community, so he wanted to teach Gu Chenan a lesson.
But Liang Bufan also knew Gu Chenan's status and skills, and had no intention of confronting him directly.
The method he used was to get the martial artists of Suhang to invite Gu Chenan to dinner tomorrow under the pretext of hosting him, and trick him into taking a poison called Smiling in The Netherworld.
This poison had appeared once in the novel before, when Liang Bufan was defeated by Lin Yu at the Ye Family. He resented Lin Yu, so when Lin Yu came to Suhang, he designed a trap to get Lin Yu to take this poison.
At that time, he also told the martial artists of Suhang that Lin Yu had insulted the entire Suhang martial arts community.
Thinking of this, Gu Chenan almost laughed.
So the plot changed, but Liang Bufan's methods remained unchanged, huh?
Speaking of which, Smiling in The Netherworld was the author's reference to Stephen Chow's movie Kung Fu Hustle and the poison Smiling Half Step to Death.
Just ingesting Smiling in The Netherworld meant one couldn't laugh or walk, otherwise they would die vomiting blood from all seven orifices.
Of course Liang Bufan didn't want to kill him, he just wanted to make Gu Chenan kneel and apologize.
Gu Chenan nodded. "I see."
He looked suspiciously at everyone present. "But why are you telling me all this? Isn't Liang Bufan someone from your Suhang martial arts circles?"
The men nodded. "That's right, but Young Master Gu is righteous and didn't investigate us chasing after Lin Yu, so how could we repay kindness with enmity?"
Oh?
Hearing this, Gu Chenan raised his eyebrows.
I didn't investigate because I knew you couldn't have killed Lin Yu, not because I was righteous.
But then again, how they saw it was their business.
"What was your reaction when Liang Bufan told you guys about this?" Gu Chenan continued.
"We reacted as usual," they replied.
"Very good!" Gu Chenan nodded satisfactorily. "Just agree to him then. I'll go tomorrow."
The men were slightly shocked to hear this.
"Young Master Gu, this is too risky. Even if you know about it in advance, it's impossible to completely avoid ingesting the poison. Don't you fear the one in ten thousand chance?"
"That's right, as long as you don't go, he can't do anything to you!"
Hearing their dissuasion, Gu Chenan smiled faintly.
"If I don't go, he certainly can't do anything to me, but I also want to see what it looks like when this poison takes effect." Gu Chenan added, "Of course, I mean taking effect on Liang Bufan's body."
The men immediately understood.
So Young Master Gu wanted to repay Liang Bufan in kind!
"We understand, Young Master Gu. How can we assist you?"
Gu Chenan went on to ask, "Where is it taking place tomorrow? Is it Lotus Pond Moonlight?"
He wasn't just randomly asking this. In the original plot, Liang Bufan had invited Lin Yu to Lotus Pond Moonlight.
The men nodded. "Yes, that's right, it's Lotus Pond Moonlight, room 03..."
Before they could say the room number, Gu Chenan interjected, "Lotus Pond Moonlight 0301, right?"
The men were shocked.
"Young Master Gu, did you actually know about this already?"
"Emmm, more or less," Gu Chenan shrugged.
That was the room number in the original plot.
It seemed that while Liang Bufan had swapped Lin Yu for himself, the plot itself hadn't changed.
Thinking of this, Gu Chenan smiled shrewdly, fully prepared.
