Our family's taken care of.

Lin Yu was baffled by the current situation.

Why was someone challenging him to a fight out of the blue?

The injuries Gu Chenan and that unknown taxi driver had inflicted on him were severe enough to almost kill him. He had only just fully recovered and had no intention of fighting anyone.

But seeing the excited looks on everyone's faces, he didn't feel right to decline.

Finally, he swallowed his saliva and nodded: "Okay."

"Mr. Lin, shall we move to the outer hall?" Liang Bufan asked with an eager look on his face. He made an inviting gesture and walked out of the main hall first.

Lin Yu clenched his fists and followed Liang Bufan out.

The other people in the main hall, always keen to watch the show, clamored and followed them out.

The previously noisy main hall suddenly became quiet.

Only Gu Chenan, Old Master Liu, and the two women remained.

Gu Chenan had no intention of going out since he knew what would happen in the story. In his opinion, Lin Yu, the son of destiny, would definitely defeat the cannon fodder Liang Bufan.

"Chenan, I didn't know you had practiced ancient martial arts and even won the championship in a competition. You've kept it quite secret," Old Master Liu said to Gu Chenan.

Gu Chenan was taken aback and quickly smiled: "Oh, it was just luck, no big deal about any championship."

He really didn't want to talk about this since he had no real skills to show if asked. It would be awkward.

"Oh ho."

Old Master Liu laughed aloud: "You're too modest about such an impressive feat!"

"It's hardly that impressive. The top masters of the Donghai Ancient Martial Arts World didn't participate. If they had been there, I definitely wouldn't have won the championship," Gu Chenan said matter-of-factly.

According to Gu Chenan's knowledge, although the Donghai Ancient Martial Arts World was little-known in the larger China Ancient Martial Arts World, it was still home to many masters hiding dragons and crouching tigers.

There were countless ancient martial arts families like the Tang Family that kept a low profile.

The Ye Family story was early-stage and those major characters naturally wouldn't appear so soon.

What he said was nothing more than the plain truth.

Although Old Master Liu knew this, he still couldn't help but admire Gu Chenan a bit more.

When that wealthy businessman had said the champion was present, Old Master Liu had become curious about who that "champion" was.

He wouldn't have imagined that it turned out to be Gu Chenan!

It was clear Gu Chenan was no braggart!

Additionally, Gu Chenan's current words showed a modest, courteous, and indifferent to fame and fortune character.

Not arrogance in victory, not despair in defeat, having thunder in his chest but a calm face like a lake!

This young man will definitely accomplish great things in the future!

If Old Master Liu had previously felt Gu Chenan was a good man, now he believed Gu Chenan would become a big figure in the future even if he wasn't the Gus’ heir.

However, Old Master Liu was an elder who had experienced ups and downs in life, so he didn't show any of these thoughts on his face. His expression remained smiling.

"Good!"

"Mr. Liang's skills are no weaker than Mr. Lin's at all!"

"Not just no weaker, he's completely suppressed Mr. Lin!"

The spectators outside the main hall kept cheering. Apparently, the fight had reached a white-hot stage.

"Chenan, won't you go out and see?" Old Master Liu stood up and asked.

"I won't go. Please go ahead, Old Master," Gu Chenan said.

Old Master Liu nodded, intending to ask his granddaughter Liu Mingrui to go with him. But when he turned his head, he saw Liu Mingrui and Su Qianmo glaring daggers at each other.

One pouting, the other sulking, two beautiful eyes shooting out red and blue electricity sparking and tangling.

Seeing this, Old Master Liu grimaced.

"Alright, I'll go alone."

Liu Zhenshan casually strolled out with his hands behind his back.

"Humph!"

"Humph!"

At this point, both women folded their arms, turned their heads, and looked away.

Gu Chenan was speechless seeing them like this.

He was at a loss for words.

The two had been at odds in Tianhai last time. How could they still be like birds fighting over food today? This was ridiculous!

Gu Chenan's face hardened as he looked at them solemnly.

"What are you two doing? Can you try to get along?"

"Today is Old Master Liu’s birthday. It's not for you two to have a staring contest!"

"What is it, are you two Ultraman's earthling forms or something?"

Su Qianmo glanced at the "fierce" Gu Chenan and said aggrievedly: "She glared at me first, so I had to glare back."

"Humph, I was glaring at you on purpose," Liu Mingrui said viciously. "Today was originally my chance to be alone with Chenan. Why did you have to come?"

Su Qianmo turned her head and also looked fiercely at her: "I knew you still had designs on Chenan, which is why I insisted on coming along!"

Saying this, Su Qianmo grabbed Gu Chenan's arm triumphantly: "What’s more, I’m Young Master Gu’s fiancée. Of course I have to accompany him!"

"So what if you're the fiancée?"

Liu Mingrui wasn't willing to back down. She also grabbed Gu Chenan's other arm: "I’m Chenan’s childhood sweetheart. I’ve seen every part of him!"

"You? Have you ever seen him?" Liu Mingrui asked smugly.

"You..."

Su Qianmo faltered. She really hadn't seen Gu Chenan naked before.

However, the next moment, she said mockingly: "Do you know what a fiancée means? It means a wife that hasn’t crossed the threshold yet!"

"Young Master Gu is already taken. Stop fantasizing about him!"

A......flower?

Gu Chenan twitched his mouth.

You could at least call me a blade of grass. This is making my gender seem questionable.

"Humph."

Liu Mingrui sneered contemptuously.

"So what if he's taken? He may be a famous flower that’s taken, but I’ll loosen the soil around him!"

"Cough cough......"

Gu Chenan coughed out at these rogue-like words.

This is practically a female rogue.

"Liu Mingrui!"

"Su Qianmo!"

Whoosh~

The two women glared at each other fiercely, red and blue electricity sparking between their eyes again.

"Enough!"

Finally, Gu Chenan couldn't stand it and reached out to separate them.

"Come on, I admit defeat, alright? Can you two just get along?"

[It’s unbelievable. The two female leads are fighting and bickering over me, the villain.]

[The original story had them fighting over Lin Yu, the protagonist!]

[I have a big headache now. This is not a joke.]

Gu Chenan's inner voice appeared. Su Qianmo wasn't surprised at all since she already knew this was a novel world from his inner voice.

As for Liu Mingrui, she felt puzzled.

Earlier, she had also heard terms like plot, female lead, etc. in Gu Chenan's inner voice.

At the time, she hadn't thought much of it.

But now, she felt more and more strange about it.

She knitted her delicate eyebrows, deep in thought.

An idea emerged that she couldn't help but ponder. Could it be that I’m a character in a novel? There's no other reason why Chenan keeps saying I was originally Lin Yu’s concubine in the plot and one of the female protagonists.

Thinking of this, Liu Mingrui looked at Gu Chenan in an interested manner.

She didn't feel much shock or worldview collapse about this idea.

To her, whether this was a novel world or not made no difference.

There was only one thing she cared about now – being with Gu Chenan!

......

"What!"

"Mr. Lin lost?"

At this moment, loud exclamations suddenly came from outside the main hall.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chenan was stunned.

He couldn't believe it.

He looked towards the outside main hall in disbelief.

Lin Yu......lost?

How is that possible? Wasn't he supposed to defeat Liang Bufan in the original plot?

What happened?
