On the main road of Donghai, numerous black SUVs sped past, drawing the attention of passersby.
"What's going on with these cars? Why are they driving so fast?"
"The license plates all start with Hai A1. They belong to the Gu family!"
"Look behind, there are the Liu family's cars too!"
"Wow, why are the Gu and Liu families mobilizing so many vehicles? Did something big happen?!"
"I have no idea!"
The pedestrians speculated wildly, full of confusion.
Inside one of the cars.
Gu Chenan clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth. Beside him, Liu Mingrui gently placed her hand on Gu Chenan's fist.
"Chenan, don't worry. Everything will be fine."
"Mm."
Gu Chenan nodded, but his heart was in complete disarray.
No one knew what Cao Mang and Lin Yu could do if they joined forces.
Moreover, in the previous life, the female protagonists were also kidnapped by Lin Yu before Gu Chenan was killed!
The system had said that once Gu Chenan died in the previous life, that world would dissipate along with him, but he never wanted to see that scene again or the tear-reddened eyes of the female leads.
[Why was I so careless? I knew that bastard Cao Mang would come for revenge, why didn't I assign more bodyguards to protect Yutian and Xiao Tang!]
Gu Chenan's current mood was not so much furious and panicked as it was regretful and anxious.
"Hurry, drive faster!"
...
Meanwhile, at Su City International.
"Has President Su not arrived yet?"
A female director, clutching a folder, came to Su Qianmo's office for the second time.
"Not... not yet..."
The secretary Chen Yan was also puzzled. Their workaholic President Su usually arrived earlier than anyone else every morning, and even if something came up, she would make work arrangements in advance.
But today Chen Yan hadn't received any notification!
And now it was almost ten o'clock, yet Su Qianmo still hadn't come to the company. This was highly unusual.
The female director also sensed something was amiss, adjusting her glasses: "Could... could something have happened to President Su?"
...
Half an hour later, at an abandoned building site on the outskirts of Donghai City.
More than a dozen black SUVs came speeding from the distant road.
Bang bang bang!
All the car doors opened. Gu Chenan and Liu Mingrui got out, followed closely by bodyguards in black.
"Here?" Liu Mingrui surveyed the environment.
Gu Chenan took a deep breath: "I hope so..."
This was where Gu Chenan and the female protagonists had been kidnapped by Lin Yu last time. Upon learning that Bai Yutian and Tang Yunjin were missing, this address was the first place Gu Chenan thought of.
Gu Chenan quickly entered the abandoned building, pointing left and right: "You go to the left, you go to the right. Search thoroughly, don't miss any corner."
With that, he and Liu Mingrui entered the building in front of them.
From bottom to top, there were nine floors in total. Gu Chenan searched each floor with extreme care, however...
"They're not here."
On the top floor of the abandoned building, Gu Chenan's eyes trembled, his gaze blank.
"Report to Young Master Gu, we found nothing!"
"Miss Liu, we also found nothing on our side!"
Hearing the reports from both teams, Gu Chenan stumbled, nearly losing his balance. Liu Mingrui grabbed his arm: "Careful."
"How... how is this possible..." Gu Chenan muttered.
He had clearly been brought here last time, so why weren't they in this location this time!
If not here, where could they be?
Just as Gu Chenan was racking his brains, his phone rang, but he paid no attention to it.
"Your phone."
Liu Mingrui reminded him, and seeing no reaction from Gu Chenan, she took it out of his pocket for him.
She glanced at the caller ID and raised an eyebrow slightly: "It's... from the Su family head."
Hearing this, Gu Chenan's eyes widened immediately, and he quickly took the phone.
He thought of a possibility that made his blood run cold, and his whole being felt as if plunged into an icy pit. He kept repeating to himself: "It can't be, Qianmo can't be in trouble."
Gu Chenan took a deep breath and answered the call: "Hello, Uncle Su."
Su Tianming on the other end of the line spoke urgently: "Chenan, Qianmo is missing!"
Thud!
At these words, Gu Chenan felt as if his heart had been struck with a blunt object, his very soul seemed to have been shaken out of his body.
After a long moment, Gu Chenan composed himself and tried to comfort Su Tianming: "I... I understand. Don't worry, Uncle. Leave it to me, leave everything to me..."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Chenan ran down the abandoned building like a madman, shouting loudly to everyone: "Split up and search! Even if we have to dig up every inch of Donghai, we must find them!"
"Yes, sir!"
...
North of the suburbs of Donghai, in a long-abandoned factory.
Su Qianmo, Bai Yutian, and Tang Yunjin, with their wrists and ankles bound by rope and their mouths gagged with cloth, were carried into the factory from a van by Lin Yu and Cao Mang.
"Phew~"
Lin Yu stretched, then turned to look at the three female protagonists who "should have belonged to him" with a grin.
"Qianmo, Yutian, and Master, it's been a long time..."
"Mmph—mmph mmph!"
Among the three, Su Qianmo was the first to be drugged unconscious, so she was also the first to wake up.
Lin Yu crouched down and removed the gag from Su Qianmo's mouth: "What do you want to say?"
"Lin Yu, you despicable scoundrel! The Su family will never let you get away with this!" Su Qianmo said fiercely.
"Heh, never let me get away with it?"
Lin Yu tilted his head, eyeing Su Qianmo up and down with a lecherous gaze: "Qianmo, if you had been with me, how could you suffer like this?"
"So, this isn't my fault. If you want to blame someone, blame Gu Chenan. If he hadn't stolen you away, how could I have done this?"
As he spoke, Lin Yu's eyes narrowed, and he said viciously: "But in the end, it's still your fault, you bitch. If you hadn't gone to Gu Chenan, how could I have ended up like this?!"
"This is all because you forced me to, not just you..." Lin Yu angrily pointed at Bai Yutian and Tang Yunjin, continuing: "...but them too, this is all because you forced me into this!"
"You knew Gu Chenan was targeting me at every turn, yet not only did you not help me, you got involved with him. Damn it, you really deserve to die!"
Speaking of his heartache, Lin Yu raised his hand to strike!
Slap!
But at that moment, Cao Mang behind him grabbed Lin Yu's wrist.
"Go get the things from the car first. We can deal with this when Gu Chenan arrives, it's not too late to do it in front of him."
Lin Yu wanted to argue, but there was an undeniable authority in Cao Mang's gaze. Lin Yu could only reluctantly comply.
"Fine." Lin Yu shook off Cao Mang's hand and went outside.
After watching Lin Yu leave completely, Cao Mang turned to look at Su Qianmo.
"Miss Su, right?"
Su Qianmo shrank back, her gaze wary: "What... what do you want?"
"Don't worry." Cao Mang waved his hand: "To be honest, the only reason I'm cooperating with Lin Yu is to kill Gu Chenan."
"This has nothing to do with you..." Cao Mang glanced at the unconscious Bai Yutian and Tang Yunjin before continuing: "...or them."
"So, I'm wondering if we could cooperate."
"Cooperate on what?" Su Qianmo asked.
"It's simple." Cao Mang spread his hands: "You lure Gu Chenan here alone. After I kill him, not only will I prevent Lin Yu from touching any of you, but I'll also send you all back safely and unharmed."
"How about it?" Cao Mang smiled.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
