Gu Chenan got out of the car.
Liu Mingrui grabbed Gu Chenan's collar angrily:
"Good for you, Gu Chenan! Not only did you ignore my call, you were even trying to escape when you saw me!"
Gu Chenan smiled awkwardly and quickly explained: "I was driving, I can't pick up calls when driving, it's dangerous."
"You..."
Liu Mingrui gnashed her teeth and huffed angrily: "Do you think I'm blind or stupid? Who sits in the back when driving?"
"Uhh...let's not talk about this first, did you ask me to come for something?" Gu Chenan changed the topic.
"Humph!"
Liu Mingrui let out an arrogant cold humph, crossed her arms over her chest: "I asked you to come to my house!"
【Damn!】
【What is going on with Liu Mingrui? Why is she asking me to go to her house?】
【Big sister, hasn't Dragon King Lin Yu captivated you yet? Go look for him! Why look for me?】
"Huh? Why do you want me to go to your house?" Gu Chenan did not want to go at all.
"I told you to go so just go, why so much nonsense!" Liu Mingrui turned her face away with a pout.
"Gulp~"
Gu Chenan swallowed his saliva: "Umm...I can't go, can I?"
"Don't you dare!" Liu Mingrui glared, the charming heavy makeup on her face was clouded by anger.
Gu Chenan was at a complete loss for words.
He knew Liu Mingrui had a bad temper before, but there hadn't been too much interaction between them during the previous acting experience, so he hadn't personally experienced it.
Now he truly experienced it first-hand.
"Young Master Gu, do you need my help?"
At this time, seeing the situation was not right, Ma Bing also walked over to Gu Chenan's side.
He knew the Lin family was on good terms with the Gu family, so he didn't make a move to stop her immediately.
"Sigh."
Gu Chenan looked at Ma Bing and shook his head helplessly: "Just stay home."
【Seeing Liu Mingrui's attitude, I'll have to go today whether I want to go or not.】
【She was able to bring men in four cars, she must have already anticipated that I don't want to go.】
【Ma Bing, although your early combat power is maxed out, Liu Mingrui's men are all battle-hardened veterans, we can't compete with force.】
Thinking of this, Gu Chenan looked at Liu Mingrui as if he was staring death in the face:
【Damn it, so what if I go to your house! My relationship with Su Qianmo has already developed to that extent, still afraid of such trivial matters?】
"Tsk!" Gu Chenan gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
Hearing Gu Chenan's voice, Liu Mingrui's eyebrows wrinkled.
The relationship with Su Qianmo has developed to what extent?
What does that mean?
Not good!
Su Qianmo must have taken the opportunity to get intimate with Gu Chenan!
Tssk, this Su Qianmo really has skills!
The corners of Liu Mingrui's mouth slightly curled up into an arc, thinking to herself: "But I'll never let Gu Chenan marry you! I'm his childhood sweetheart and he's my childhood friend. If someone's getting married, it should be us!"
"What are you thinking about? Let's go." Gu Chenan urged.
Liu Mingrui gestured towards the four Hummers to her men: "Mission complete, stand down."
"Yes ma'am!"
The sturdy men in military uniforms in the four Hummers answered in unison.
Seeing this scene, Gu Chenan pursed his lips.
【Wait, does this mean you treated looking for me as a mission?】
【What's the mission codename? Capture Gu Chenan?】
【That's just insane!】
Bang!
Liu Mingrui got into the driver's seat and closed the door.
"Mingrui, there's no need to make such a big fuss, people who don't know would think something happened to the Gu family." Gu Chenan complained.
"Tsk!"
Liu Mingrui rolled her eyes at Gu Chenan, furious: "It's all because of you! If you hadn't ignored my call, would I have needed to make such a big move?"
"Ha~" Gu Chenan let out an awkward laugh: "Yeah, fair point."
It was at this moment that Gu Chenan noticed the long black coat Liu Mingrui was wearing.
The weather wasn't that cold now, Gu Chenan was only wearing a suit.
But Liu Mingrui was dressed as if it was winter in that black coat, which made Gu Chenan quite puzzled.
"Mingrui, are you getting ready for winter?" Gu Chenan asked.
【Hiss! Could Liu Mingrui be on her period? 】
【It's normal for women to have those few days, but I've never seen a woman dress so thickly when she's on her period!】
Hearing Gu Chenan's voice, Liu Mingrui's face instantly turned red.
"Damn you Gu Chenan!"
...
Soon, Liu Mingrui drove Gu Chenan to the Lin house.
After parking the car steadily, Gu Chenan opened the door and got out, saying to Liu Mingrui: "I'll go say hi to the old master first."
Liu Mingrui also got out of the car right after, "No need to, master is not home."
Hmm?!
Gu Chenan frowned, realizing something was not right.
If the old master is not home, why did you bring me here?
He was about to ask, but then he heard Liu Mingrui continue: "I also sent all the house servants away."
Damn!
Gu Chenan's Adam's apple moved as he blinked.
【Then that means...there's only the two of us today?!】
【Liu Mingrui, what are you trying to do?】
【A man and woman alone in a room! You have malicious intents! 】
【I'm an honourable gentleman who won't let lust cloud my judgement!】
Hearing Gu Chenan's voice, Liu Mingrui's face was covered in black lines.
Damn you Gu Chenan, do you think I'm going to eat you?!
Why can't you think of something nice, just dirty thoughts filling that brain of yours?
"Let's go, come inside with me." Liu Mingrui very naturally held Gu Chenan's arm.
Gu Chenan froze for a second, then swiftly pulled back his arm and jumped away, the motions seamless like flowing water.
He swallowed his saliva: "Mingrui you... don't be like this, I'm scared."
"Scared of what?" Liu Mingrui frowned, grabbing Gu Chenan's wrist: "Come on, let's go inside!"
Gu Chenan panicked directly.
【Dragon King Lin Yu, you saw right? I have nothing to do with this!】
【I never intended to steal anyone's woman, yet they have all become like this!】
"Mingrui, can't we talk outside instead and go to the courtyard?"
Gu Chenan was terrified.
Just Su Qianmo's matter was already giving him a big enough headache. If his relationship with Liu Mingrui also progressed further, he really wouldn't know what to do.
"Are you going in or not?" Liu Mingrui pouted angrily.
"Not going in!" Gu Chenan shook his head resolutely, staring death in the face.
Hearing this, Liu Mingrui let go of Gu Chenan's hand. She then gently bent down and lifted the hem of her coat, revealing a pair of black stockinged beautiful legs.
"Then...what if I said I'm wearing black stockings?"
"Gulp~"
Gu Chenan swallowed his saliva and pursed his lips.
"Come on, let's go inside!"
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
