A few people entered the main hall.
Liu Zhenshan's eyebrows were tightly furrowed. He probably had already guessed what had happened.
"Tell me, what happened?" Liu Zhenshan asked coldly.
Liu Mingrui heaved a long sigh, somewhat ashamed, "I was kidnapped."
Although she was only in her twenties, in Donghai she was just the young miss of a wealthy family. But the problem was that she was from the Liu family, and even more so, she was the daughter of Liu Zhenshan, this legendary warrior of China!
Adding to that, Liu Zhenshan had taken her to battlefields to train for many years. So she felt a bit ashamed about being kidnapped. The female general being kidnapped in broad daylight, if this got out it would be truly embarrassing.
"I guessed that too." Liu Zhenshan was not surprised. He asked further, "Do you know who did it?"
Liu Mingrui shook her head, "I couldn't tell. Those people had their faces covered."
She then added, "But judging from their skills, they probably did not come from our China."
Liu Zhenshan lightly nodded his head.
He already had a guess—Black Owl!
The only people daring enough to kidnap Liu Mingrui in Donghai were this international assassin organization!
But he did not want to say this in front of Gu Chenan, moreover with Lin Yu this stranger also present.
Liu Zhenshan cast his gaze upon Lin Yu, looking him up and down before asking, "This is...?"
Liu Mingrui introduced him, "Dad, his name is Lin Yu. If not for him stepping in to rescue me, perhaps by now I would have been taken away by those people."
Hearing this, Liu Zhenshan's eyes lit up. He quickly got to his feet and cupped his fists towards Lin Yu, "I cannot thank you enough for this great kindness. I, Liu Zhenshan, will definitely keep this engraved in my heart!"
Lin Yu was instantly overjoyed. With the Liu family's assistance, from now on he would have nothing to fear in Donghai!
"Sir is too kind with your praise. This was but a slight effort, hardly worth mentioning," Lin Yu also stood up to return the greeting.
【Nice! Just like that, follow the original storyline. Whatever you do, don't screw this up!】
Gu Chenan's expression was calm, but he was ecstatic inside.
From the looks of it, there were no signs of deviation from this storyline. This was incredibly good news for Gu Chenan!
Thinking to this point, his gaze shifted towards Liu Mingrui by the side.
【And this big-breasted, hot-tempered fool of a woman, hurry up and become part of Lin Yu's harem! Just don't get entangled with me, whatever you do. 】
【Tsk tsk, gotta say, this chick's breasts really are big. Fortunately she's wearing a tight top, if it was a blouse the buttons might burst.】
【I'm not looking anymore, later this stallion protagonist will think I have ideas about Liu Mingrui again.】
Gu Chenan withdrew his gaze.
But hearing his inner voice, Liu Mingrui by the side was given a shock.
When they first met, she had already heard Gu Chenan's inner voice, but at that time she thought it was just an auditory hallucination.
But she was certain she had clearly heard the inner voice just now.
Big-breasted fool? Hot temper?
Was this her image in Gu Chenan's heart?
And to think you're my childhood friend. You actually mentally slandered me like this?
What's wrong with big breasts? How do they bother you? Used up your fabric? Drank your milk? Ate your papaya?
Psycho!
Liu Mingrui glared angrily at Gu Chenan, then slightly hunched her previously straight posture, shrinking herself a little.
Then she recalled Gu Chenan's inner voice again.
Both times, Gu Chenan had been muttering about her becoming part of Lin Yu's harem. What exactly was going on here?
Just because Lin Yu rescued her, she had to offer herself to him?
Absolutely impossible!
Also, what did Gu Chenan mean by storyline and protagonist in his mind?
Although Liu Mingrui was puzzled, she did not think too deeply about it.
At this moment, Gu Chenan beside them was using the system to check the upcoming storyline developments.
In the original storyline, after protagonist Lin Yu rescued Liu Mingrui and arrived at the Liu residence, he met antagonist Gu Chenan.
Gu Chenan was disdainful towards Lin Yu's arrival, and kept taunting and humiliating him through words and actions.
Finally, Liu Mingrui flared up and scolded Gu Chenan, even chasing him out of the Liu residence.
And as he left, Gu Chenan declared that Lin Yu would definitely pay the price.
The storyline was simple and silly like this.
But this part had built up immense hatred towards the reader early on. Later when the Liu family turned traitor and assisted Lin Yu in retaliating against Gu Chenan, it was one of the biggest climaxes in the early parts of the novel.
At this point, protagonist Lin Yu finally unleashed all the hatred that was pent up from before. It was an extremely cathartic moment.
Of course, this part of the storyline was also very clichéd. A typical web novel trope of suppressing and humiliating the protagonist at first, then letting him show off and retaliate later.
【It's my turn to act. Annoying, I really don't want to humiliate this calamity Lin Yu!】
Gu Chenan took a deep breath and got into character.
"Well well, I didn't expect your skills to be quite so good that you could even rescue Mingrui. You've really opened my eyes!" Gu Chenan said obsequiously.
Liu Zhenshan looked at Lin Yu, then looked at Gu Chenan again. "Chenan, do you know Lin Yu?"
Gu Chenan nodded. "Not only do I know him, we even have some history..." As he spoke, Gu Chenan raised his eyebrows at Lin Yu. "Isn't that right, Mr Lin the chauffeur."
"You!" Lin Yu clenched his fists tightly. "Gu Chenan, just what exactly are you trying to say!"
Gu Chenan spoke the lines from the original storyline: "What am I trying to say? Heh, I only want to tell you, don't think that just because you rescued Mingrui you can climb up Master Liu's coattails. You're just a poor loser, don't dream impractical dreams!"
【Big bro, I really don't wanna say things this way. You're Dragon King Lin Yu, with a harem of 3000 beauties!】
【By tonight, even Sakura ninja Huanin Hoshi, one of the Twelve Black Owls, becomes part of your harem too.】
"Hm?"
Hearing Gu Chenan's inner voice, Liu Mingrui by the side was given a shock.
What? The one who kidnapped me tonight was Lin Yu's...harem?
"Gu Chenan, don't push people too far!"
Just then, Lin Yu's angry roar interrupted Liu Mingrui's thoughts.
Lin Yu's eyes were wide with fury, jabbing a finger at Gu Chenan. "Let me tell you, one day my name will resound throughout all of China!"
【I know, I know, do you have to declare this every time someone humiliates you? Please, this is so aesthetically fatiguing.】
【Forget just China, by the later parts of the novel your fame as Dragon King spreads terror across the whole world. Every international organization that hears of Dragon King Hall wets their pants in fear.】
Maintaining the antagonist role, Gu Chenan let out a contemptuous snort. "Shooting off at the mouth without shame. With your capabilities, you still want your name to resound throughout China? What name? A poor loser's name?"
As he spoke, Gu Chenan threw back his head and laughed loudly.
【After I humiliate Lin Yu like that, Liu Mingrui will definitely stand up for him. 】
【After all, Lin Yu is her life-saving benefactor. Moreover, she's destined to be part of Lin Yu's harem!】
【My big-breasted childhood friend falls completely in love with Lin Yu after he saves her life. Tsk tsk, how typical.】
