Inside a private room of a luxurious KTV in Beijing, Zhou Lin and Guo Chenyang, along with several spoiled young men, indulged themselves, squandering money that didn’t belong to them. Several seductive and beautiful women danced around the men, flaunting their bodies in hopes of latching onto one of the rich young masters.
“Guo Young Master, weren’t you saying you’d soon win over that beauty Lin? Why haven’t you made a move yet? If you can’t do it, us brothers might have to step in…”
Beside Guo Chenyang, a well-dressed young man continuously groped the women around him. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he turned to Guo Chenyang and spoke.
“Keep your hands off my woman. Within two days, I’m sure she’ll willingly become mine. Once I’m done having fun, I can let the brothers have their turn…”
If anyone else had said such words, Guo Chenyang would have made sure they regretted ever being born. However, he had no anger to spare for this particular young man, for he was the young master of this enterprise itself…
To thrive in the KTV business in Beijing, one needed immense backing, and no matter how arrogant Guo Chenyang might be, he dared not act too high-handedly in front of this young man. Offending him might result in ending up as a corpse on the street one day.
“I heard that last time, Guo Young Master was publicly humiliated by some pretty boy at a concert. Is that really true? It’s been quite a while, and I haven’t seen you lose before. When are you going to get your revenge?”
The young man’s lips curled into a more teasing smile, his gaze filled with an indescribable expression. To Guo Chenyang, however, it was a blatant display of disdain, which only fueled his long-standing anger toward Xiao Yufan…
“Just a pitiful worm. I wonder how long he can keep jumping around. When his woman is in my hands, I’ll make sure he becomes utterly worthless…”
Guo Chenyang’s fury surged instantly. Right now, he wished nothing more than to tear Xiao Yufan into pieces. He hadn’t forgotten the past at all, and if given the chance, he wouldn’t mind sending Xiao Yufan into an abyss from which there was no return.
“I’ve heard some inside information—this pretty boy isn’t as simple as he seems. Otherwise, how could he have captured Miss Lin’s heart so completely? If this time you’re facing a tough opponent…”
“Tough opponent? How tough could he be? I don’t believe I can’t destroy him. This time it’s his woman, next time it’ll be him. I’ll make him pay dearly for his arrogance!”
Guo Chenyang sneered coldly. He wasn’t entirely sure of Xiao Yufan’s identity, but deep down, he believed that dealing with someone like him required only a little effort to completely crush him.
“So that means Miss Lin’s situation was orchestrated by you, Guo Young Master? Never thought you’d be ruthless enough to go after your own chosen woman. Truly a tyrant’s style…”
“If I don’t act a bit harshly, she won’t know who the real big shot is. Thinking she can rest easy just by hooking up with some pretty boy? Whether that pretty boy can even support her is still a question!”
Unmoved, Guo Chenyang’s arrogant expression inspired no goodwill in others. But no one spoke up, after all, it wasn’t their business, so why bother worrying?
“Guo Young Master sure is meddling in others’ affairs. Whether I can support my woman or not probably doesn’t concern you, right?”
Just as Guo Chenyang finished speaking, suddenly, a chill ran down the spines of everyone present, and they couldn’t help shivering. Then, a voice as smooth as a ghost’s whisper floated in.
The door to the KTV room slammed open, and two figures flew in from outside—the two bodyguards who had strutted around arrogantly at the concert the other day. Now, they lay on the floor like dying dogs, groaning in pain.
“Which bastard dares to come here and cause trouble? I’ll cripple you…”
Without waiting for Guo Chenyang’s command, several other bodyguards in the room rushed toward the intruder, exuding an aura of overwhelming dominance. However, soon they truly understood what the term “gap” meant.
The one who had entered was none other than Xiao Yufan. With Tian Xuan’s help, finding Guo Chenyang’s whereabouts was effortless. Originally, someone like him wasn’t even worth Xiao Yufan’s hands, but daring to covet his woman—Xiao Yufan really wanted to play with this guy a bit.
Within a few breaths, the people in the room watched in horror as those bodyguards fell to the ground in disarray. Others hadn’t even reacted yet, and these guards, all military veterans, were already no match for Xiao Yufan.
“Now I ask, you answer. If I’m not satisfied, I’ll make sure you’ll never be a man again…”
After easily dealing with those guards, Xiao Yufan clapped his hands and sat casually on a nearby sofa. As he sat down, the other young men instinctively moved to another corner, none wanting to provoke this killer.
Zhou Lin and Guo Chenyang recognized Xiao Yufan immediately, their hearts instantly filled with fear. They had seen Xiao Yufan’s strength before, but watching those men fall still sent chills down their spines. Imagining themselves lying there instead, both felt their scalps tingling.
“If you dare touch me, I swear you won’t leave here alive. You’d better believe my power. Don’t do this over a woman…”
“Annoying…” Before Guo Chenyang could finish speaking, Xiao Yufan’s voice carried growing impatience. At the same time, a crisp sound echoed throughout the room. When everyone refocused, they saw a graceful figure appear before Guo Chenyang.
Everyone gulped hard. Tian Xuan, dressed in tight black attire today, highlighted her perfect figure to the fullest, like a born enchantress. Yet no one dared to have any improper thoughts.
For Tian Xuan’s delicate face was filled with icy coldness. Under such bone-chilling frost, no one could summon the slightest desire. Compared to lust, survival was far more important, especially with Tian Xuan’s dagger clenched tightly in her hand. Everyone in the room dared not even breathe loudly…
“Now you only answer my questions. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee you’ll leave unscathed. Remember, you must tell the truth…”
Seeing Guo Chenyang’s face turn pale, Xiao Yufan knew Tian Xuan’s intimidation had worked. His gaze paused briefly on one person before locking back onto Guo Chenyang.
“Was it you who sent those photos to the Entertainment Daily?”
“So what if it was? Not much you can do about it, right? Why don’t you go find the editor-in-chief of Entertainment Daily yourself instead of wasting your breath here? In another half day, Miss Lin will become the focus of everyone’s attention. Then…”
His eyes flickering with shifting light, Guo Chenyang, though inwardly fearful, refused to yield verbally. With so many friends around, if he showed weakness now, how could he hold his head up among them again?
“It seems Guo Young Master isn’t willing to talk. Tian Xuan, use your method to make him talk. No matter life or death…”
Xiao Yufan had expected Guo Chenyang wouldn’t admit it, but he believed Tian Xuan had ways of dealing with stubborn mouths. As soon as he finished speaking, a howl like a wolf’s echoed from the room, chilling everyone’s bones.
Tian Xuan merely shifted the dagger slightly, and a streak of red slowly appeared on Guo Chenyang’s face. Feeling the warmth of blood trickling down, Guo Chenyang could no longer remain calm. He hadn’t expected this angelic woman to actually dare strike him.
“Those photos were indeed sent by me to the Entertainment Daily, but it wasn’t my idea. It was all Zhou Lin’s doing. I had no idea…”
Finally tasting true fear, Guo Chenyang’s eyes locked onto the dagger resting near his cheek, terrified that this cold-blooded beauty might accidentally slice deeper. If that happened, his face would be ruined for good.
“Him? Just a dog. After I finish with you, I’ll let him know what true suffering is…”
Xiao Yufan’s sinister voice carried no emotion, but to Zhou Lin, it sounded like thunderclaps. He was utterly terrified, unsure exactly what kind of killer he had angered. He silently began praying for his own safety.
“What else do you want to know? I’ll tell you everything. I swear I’ll never again have improper thoughts about Miss Lin. I hope we can just let this matter drop. What do you think?”
Forgetting all about his pride, Guo Chenyang switched to a fawning smile, desperate to escape this place as soon as possible. As for later, he would definitely make Xiao Yufan regret his actions today. With the Guo family’s influence in Beijing, he believed he could easily destroy Xiao Yufan.
“Just let it drop? Guo Young Master thinks too highly of yourself. Since you’re so interested in women, I’d like to see how capable you are in that department…”
Xiao Yufan laughed arrogantly. He had already more or less figured out Guo Chenyang’s background. As for someone like him, Xiao Yufan held no fear whatsoever. What was the Guo family in Beijing? Provoking him, he wouldn’t mind eliminating them altogether from the city.
Clapping his hands lightly, several stout women entered the room, all heading straight toward Guo Chenyang. Everyone finally understood the meaning behind Xiao Yufan’s words…
“Devil…” That was the only word everyone could use to describe Xiao Yufan. They felt a bit sorry for Guo Chenyang for having provoked such a killer. Thinking about what would happen next, chills ran down their spines.
“Young man, aren’t you being a bit too arrogant? Do you really think this place is your home, where you can do as you please?”
As everyone prepared to watch the show, the young man who had been chatting with Guo Chenyang earlier finally spoke up, and his words directly targeted Xiao Yufan…
