"Chenan, you must not be disrespectful to Lin Yu. He is currently the benefactor of our Liu Family," Old Master Liu spoke up, expressing his gratitude towards Lin Yu for saving Liu Mingrui's life.
However, Liu Mingrui remained silent, her eyebrows furrowed as she pondered over Gu Chenan's earlier words.
Just because Lin Yu saved my life, does that mean I have fallen in love with him completely?
How is that possible?
[What the hell, Liu Mingrui? What are you doing?]
In the original plot, after Liu Zhenshan spoke, Liu Mingrui immediately stood up and spoke for Lin Yu. But now, Liu Mingrui didn't show any reaction at all.
This left Gu Chenan utterly bewildered.
[Damn it, is the plot going to collapse again?]
[No, everything was fine just now. Why isn't this Liu Mingrui scolding me angrily for her Dragon King Lin Yu?]
[Quick, speak up for your Dragon King. The doors of his harem are wide open for you!]
Gu Chenan's inner thoughts resurfaced once again.
A trace of disdain flickered across Liu Mingrui's spirited face.
It wasn't that she despised Gu Chenan, but rather, she detested the word "harem" in Gu Chenan's inner thoughts.
She was the daughter of the formidable Warrior God of China and the youngest female general in China. How could she become someone's harem just because they saved her?
At the same time, Liu Mingrui was also wondering why Gu Chenan would say that she is Lin Yu's harem.
Indeed, Lin Yu had saved her, but she had no reason to become his harem because of that, right?
She wasn't that obsessed with love.
After a moment, Liu Mingrui spoke up.
She said to Gu Chenan, "Chenan, you better keep quiet. Lin Yu is my benefactor."
If she hadn't heard Gu Chenan's inner thoughts, according to Liu Mingrui's temper, she would have definitely scolded Gu Chenan harshly. But Gu Chenan kept muttering about her being Lin Yu's harem and that made Liu Mingrui set up a psychological defense for Lin Yu. She also wanted to avoid any misunderstanding from Gu Chenan, which was why she treated him so gently.
Upon hearing these words, a warm feeling flowed through Lin Yu's heart.
She spoke up for me. She must have me in her heart!
My agile skills and handsome appearance must have captivated her!
"Thank you, Mingrui," Lin Yu looked at Gu Chenan with a proud smile.
But Gu Chenan didn't pay any attention to Lin Yu's smile. He was utterly confused.
[Are you really this gentle?]
[I insulted your Dragon King, shouldn't you have angrily confronted me and scolded me?]
[No, I need to provoke a fire!]
"I'm not wrong, am I? He was just a poor loser!" Gu Chenan said according to the character setting.
"Chenan, what's gotten into you? Lin Yu saved me, and you must not speak ill of him," Liu Mingrui furrowed her brows, clearly displeased.
But even so, she refrained from getting angry in order to prevent any misunderstanding from Gu Chenan.
[Damn it, why don't you scold me?]
[I've said such outrageous things, you should stand up for your Dragon King!]
[You're being so kind to me, who knows what this crazy guy is thinking in his heart!]
Lin Yu on the side was about to burst into laughter.
Gu Chenan, oh Gu Chenan, are you jealous because Mingrui defended me?
No way, right?
Is it possible for someone to actually be jealous?
Lin Yu looked at Gu Chenan with a hint of pride in his eyes. Ever since the moment he saved Liu Mingrui, he regarded her as his woman.
In Lin Yu's eyes, everything Liu Mingrui did was to protect her husband!
Feeling Lin Yu's triumphant gaze, Gu Chenan sighed helplessly.
Big brother, don't be too proud.
The plot has already gone off track.
In the original plot, Liu Mingrui would have already stood up and scolded me because of you.
But now, she just spoke so gently.
You have no idea about her temper; she's a complete tigress.
"Lin Yu, don't take Chenan too seriously. I'm really grateful that you saved me tonight. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do," Liu Mingrui sincerely expressed her gratitude to Lin Yu.
But she knew very well that her gratitude towards Lin Yu was just that and nothing more.
Upon hearing these words, Lin Yu's smile grew even broader.
Indeed, she must have fallen in love with me.
Well, what can I say? My charm is just irresistible.
Sigh, a man like me is like a firefly in the night. Even in the pitch-black darkness, my brilliant radiance can be seen.
Ding dong~
Just then, Liu Zhenshan's phone rang.
He got up and went out to answer the call, reminding Gu Chenan and Lin Yu before leaving, "Communicate properly. You're both young people, you should be able to understand each other."
Once Liu Zhenshan left, the atmosphere in the room became eerie.
Gu Chenan was thinking about how to provoke Liu Mingrui into scolding him, to steer the plot back on track and make Lin Yu believe that Liu Mingrui was his woman.
Meanwhile, Liu Mingrui was thinking about how to express to Gu Chenan that she had no other relationship with Lin Yu and could never become his harem, without offending Lin Yu.
"Mingrui, it was just a small favor. You don't need to take it to heart," Lin Yu smirked, his gaze lingering on Liu Mingrui's chest.
Instantly, a glimmer of lust appeared in his eyes.
Mingrui was beautiful, with a figure like a devil.
After I conquer her, I must show off in front of Gu Chenan!
Just as Lin Yu was thinking this, Liu Mingrui suddenly pulled out a bank card from her purse and handed it to him, saying, "This card has three million yuan. Consider it my token of gratitude."
"This..." Lin Yu's face showed a shocked expression, and he was completely taken aback.
[What the hell?!]
Gu Chenan was also dumbfounded.
In the original plot, Liu Mingrui didn't give this bank card to Lin Yu. She only told him, "If you ever need anything in the future, just ask."
Although the former was real money, the latter was just an empty promise.
But, the latter promise was made by Liu Mingrui herself!
Compared to three million yuan, it was nothing compared to the favor from the Liu family!
Moreover, in the original plot, it was only after Liu Mingrui uttered these words that she gave Lin Yu numerous opportunities. One could say that the bank card in Liu Mingrui's hand is not just three million, but also the evidence that severs any possibility of further connection with Lin Yu!
["No, what exactly is going on here?"]
["Do you have any idea how much this card has hurt me emotionally?"]
["You used to tell Lin Yu that he could ask for anything he needed, and then one night he contacted you, saying he needed you to dress up as a black stocking Playboy Bunny and come to his house."]
["Because you wanted to repay him, without hesitation, you bought a black stocking Playboy Bunny outfit and gave it to Lin Yu!"]
["Now that you've given him this card, how can he ever come to you and say these words?"]
