As everyone watched in bewilderment, the bodyguards brutally beat Lin Yu and the group of ruffians.
Lin Yu was confused, the ruffians were confused, and the gorgeous woman was confused.
Even the onlookers were more confused.
The sounds of fists and kicks were constantly echoing, interspersed with the ruffians' screams of pain and Lin Yu's loud questioning.
Finally, the commotion attracted the bouncers of the nightclub.
"What's going on here?!"
A dozen bouncers in white shirts emerged from the crowd, wielding batons.
Subsequently, the music stopped, and the lights came on.
The crowd quickly stepped forward and separated the bodyguards from Lin Yu and the others.
The lead bouncer looked at Lin Yu and the ruffians' injuries, then turned to the men in black suits: "Causing trouble in our place, do you think we're pushovers?"
As he spoke, the lead bouncer pointed his baton at the suited men: "Explain yourselves, why are you causing trouble?!"
The bodyguards sneered disdainfully.
"Causing trouble? Sorry, we're not causing trouble."
"What do you mean you're not causing trouble? Do you think I'm stupid?" The lead bouncer stepped forward: "Look at how badly you've beaten them up!"
The men glanced at Lin Yu and the ruffians, who were covered in blood, and said indifferently: "They disturbed our young master, so we taught them a lesson."
They disturbed your young master?
With the loud music in this nightclub, how could a little noise disturb someone?
But at the moment, they didn't care about that. What they cared about were the two words "young master" from the men's mouths.
Anyone who could be called a "young master" must not be an ordinary nouveau riche. Even if they were from a minor family, they were still a young scion of that family.
The bouncers exchanged glances, feeling some trepidation.
The lead bouncer's attitude immediately softened, and he lowered his baton.
"Your... young master is...?"
"Looking for me?"
At this moment, a languid, cold voice came from within the crowd.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Gu Chenan wearing a black high-end suit and sunglasses.
Gu Chenan took off his sunglasses: "It's me, what's the problem?"
Everyone was momentarily stunned when they saw Gu Chenan's handsome face.
Then there was a long silence.
At this moment, all eyes in the nightclub were focused on Gu Chenan's face.
The people's eyes slowly widened, revealing looks of shock.
Finally—buzz!
Sudden chaos erupted!
"Holy shit, it's the young master Gu!"
"It really is young master Gu, damn!"
"Who would have thought young master Gu would come to a place like this!"
"If it's young master Gu, then everything makes sense!"
The bouncers also had expressions of shock. After being stunned for nearly five seconds, the lead bouncer's face broke into a smile.
"Young... Young Master Gu."
Gu Chenan nodded and walked forward, using his little finger to clean his ear: "These people disturbed me, so teaching them a lesson is fine, right?"
The lead bouncer handed his baton to one of his subordinates and rubbed his palms together: "Young Master Gu, we're truly sorry for ruining your evening. Let us handle this matter."
"No problem." Gu Chenan waved his hand dismissively.
"Young Master Gu, welcome Young Master Gu!"
At this moment, a bespectacled man in a suit emerged from the crowd.
He was the general manager of the nightclub, and upon hearing that Gu Chenan had arrived, he immediately rushed out from his office.
Although the Gu Family's influence in Suhang was far less than in Donghai, the number one family in Donghai was not one that this small nightclub could defy.
Additionally, given the public relationship between Gu Chenan and Xiao Yajie, even if they didn't consider the Gu Family's face, they would still have to respect the influence of the Xiao Family, the number one family in Suhang.
In fact, ever since the news of Gu Chenan and Xiao Yajie kissing under the moonlight of the lotus pond spread, everyone basically knew about their romance.
This meant that Gu Chenan now represented not only the Gu Family of Donghai but also the Xiao Family of Suhang!
"Are you the manager?" Gu Chenan looked him over and asked.
"Yes, it's me." The manager wore a sycophantic smile.
"Sorry for the trouble. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving." Gu Chenan turned to leave.
He had already had his men beat Lin Yu and the ruffians unconscious, ruining Lin Yu's plan to show off.
There was no need for him to stay any longer.
Truthfully, the music here was too loud, and the alcohol was fake, making it uninteresting.
"Certainly, Young Master Gu, let me see you out." The manager made a gesture of invitation.
"No need." Gu Chenan took a step forward, and as he brushed past the manager, he patted his shoulder and said: "The alcohol is fake, it doesn't taste good."
With that, he left with five or six bodyguards.
The manager was taken aback but quickly followed after him.
The gorgeous woman also hurried after them.
The two caught up to Gu Chenan as he was about to leave the nightclub.
"Young Master Gu, we sincerely apologize!" the manager said.
Gu Chenan shook his head: "It's alright, I don't mind."
Seeing that Gu Chenan didn't intend to make an issue out of it, the manager breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn, who would have thought that Young Master Gu would come here?!
If Young Master Gu got angry about the fake alcohol, he might shut down our nightclub!
"Young Master Gu, the next time you come, you'll get real alcohol, and from now on, all of Young Master Gu's expenses will be on the house," the manager said.
Gu Chenan nodded slightly: "We'll see."
With that, he took a step forward.
"Young Master Gu!"
At this moment, a cloying, feminine voice called out from behind.
Gu Chenan frowned and turned to see the gorgeous woman from earlier.
"What is it?" Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow.
The woman pretended to be shy, brushing her hair aside and slightly puffing out her chest: "Young Master Gu, those ruffians harassed me earlier, thanks to you..."
"Huh?"
Gu Chenan was momentarily stunned.
[Thanks to me?]
[Not you, sister, are you still half-asleep or drunk?]
[You should be thanking Lin Yu. He's the real hero who came to your rescue and did the right thing, even if his intention was to sleep with you. But he genuinely saved you, didn't he? Why are you thanking me?]
[Besides, I don't like your type. Look at the dress you're wearing, aren't you freezing your ass off? And the makeup you have on, it looks like a layer of white plaster was smeared all over your face, dead white.]
[I bet if I kissed you, my mouth would get plastered shut.]
"I'm sorry, I have something else to attend to." Gu Chenan turned and walked away.
But the gorgeous woman didn't want to let Gu Chenan go so easily. Who was Gu Chenan?
The young master of the number one family in Donghai!
If she could get close to such a big shot, she would definitely be able to soar to new heights!
Although Young Master Gu was in a relationship with Xiao Yajie, being his mistress wouldn't be a loss at all!
The woman quickly stepped in front of Gu Chenan: "Young Master Gu, I'm really grateful to you, but I don't know how to repay you."
As she spoke, she pulled down her neckline, revealing a deep cleavage: "Young Master Gu, whatever you want me to do, I'll agree to it~"
"Oh, is that so?" Gu Chenan smiled mockingly.
"Yes, anything!" The woman leaned towards Gu Chenan seductively.
"Alright." Gu Chenan pointed at the street.
"Go, take a shit under the traffic light."
The woman: "?"

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections."
