Li Tao was scared.
This time, he was truly beaten to the point of fear.
His head had been smashed open, and the hot blood flowed out from the wound.
"Remember, don't let me see any of you in Magic City again, or else--------"
Lin Fan's eyes radiated a cold and deadly intent.
Li Tao covered his head with one hand and pulled up his companion, who was lying on the ground in extreme pain.
"Got it, got it---------"
The situation was beyond their control.
There was no time to wipe the fresh blood streaming down his forehead.
The two of them fled the scene in a disgraceful manner.
Lin Fan smirked with disdain.
Were these trash even worthy of competing with him for a meal?
He didn't pay much attention to those fools.
Instead, he turned his gaze back to Shen Manni's alluring figure.
That ascetic face...
was utterly captivating.
Anyone with even a little weak willpower would have their soul stolen.
Lin Fan swallowed hard and felt a surge of excitement.
This flawless woman.
Soon would be the woman of the Dragon King!
"Shen Manni, what's wrong? You don't look well. Don't worry, those thugs have been driven away by me."
Lin Fan put on what he considered a very gentlemanly smile.
The DJ at the bar was blasting music at an incredibly loud volume.
He didn't think Shen Manni, who had been drugged, could hear his conversation with Li Tao normally.
Even if she hadn't been drugged, in such an environment, unless they were very close and spoke loudly, even a person with sharp hearing wouldn't catch much.
Shen Manni's consciousness returned slightly, but she still hadn't regained her strength. Her whole body felt weak and limp, as if she might collapse at any moment.
She managed to stay standing thanks to her extraordinary willpower.
"G---get lost"
Shen Manni said weakly.
Lin Fan didn't care at all.
Or rather, no matter what Shen Manni said right now, it didn't matter.
This first blood.
He, Lin Fan, was taking it.
"Hahaha-----stand steady, be careful not to fall over."
Lin Fan chuckled as he stepped forward to support Shen Manni.
He allowed the drug to take effect for a while.
It was time.
To reel in the catch.
Lin Fan knew very well.
When Shen Manni recalled what happened tonight later, it would be vague and hazy.
So Lin Fan felt there was no need to continue acting.
"Huh-----------------"
Lin Fan's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing quickened.
His hand was about to touch Shen Manni's soft, delicate body.
At that moment, a thunderous shout.
Came.
"Damn it! It's you again, you filthy security guard! Get away from my sister-in-law, now!!!"
Lin Fan's hand froze.
His face instantly turned cold.
He looked in the direction of the voice.
It would be a miracle if he, a martial artist, had been hearing things.
Xu Mo and Tao Xiaoyi were walking towards them.
Especially Tao Xiaoyi.
That expression.
As if Lin Fan had just assaulted his mother.
He seemed ready to tear Lin Fan apart, limb from limb.
Even clay figurines have some temper.
He, Lin Fan, wasn't made of clay.
Today, Xu Mo had come alone, just as expected.
It was the perfect opportunity to settle old scores and new.
He would beat Xu Mo so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him.
What about Tao Xiaoyi?
Lin Fan just glanced at him.
And completely ignored him.
Xu Mo was slightly stronger than Tao Xiaoyi.
That being said.
In Lin Fan's eyes.
Xu Mo was still trash.
And Tao Xiaoyi was trash among trash.
He could slap him away with just one hand.
"So it's you two playboys."
Xu Mo was momentarily stunned.
He looked at Lin Fan.
Then at Shen Manni beside him.
After recalling.
He quickly understood the situation.
This was the classic hero-saving-the-beauty trope, wasn't it?
Oh my!
It's such an old cliche.
The author was giving the protagonist a chance to boost his charm.
But the problem was.
This was for the protagonist.
Not for him, a villain.
What the hell was the system thinking, dragging him here?!
"Lin Fan, I'm warning you, watch your filthy mouth, or don't blame me for being rude!!!"
Tao Xiaoyi shot Lin Fan a fierce glare.
"Hahaha----------you? Laughable!"
Lin Fan chuckled as if he had heard the funniest joke.
"So you think you're brave?"
Tao Xiaoyi was startled.
But with Xu Mo beside him, what was there to be afraid of?
"What dirty things did you do to my sister-in-law? Confess now!"
Tao Xiaoyi observed Shen Manni slightly.
He knew this was serious.
After all, no one in this world knew better than him about those shady tricks.
Lin Fan was shocked, but he quickly regained his composure.
"You two are accusing me out of nowhere without any grounds. Let me state first that I'm a good person. If not for me, Shen Manni would have been taken advantage of by another man. As you can see, she's been drugged, her condition is very bad, and I need to take her to the hospital as soon as possible."
He paused and continued.
"Every second delayed is bad for her!"
His plan was exposed.
They had encountered someone who knew what he was doing.
As long as the two weren't blind.
If they dug deeper.
They would definitely see that Shen Manni's condition was abnormal.
So Lin Fan decided to come clean.
As long as he could take her away.
He had a thousand lies to cover up tonight's events.
Tao Xiaoyi nodded in agreement and took out a hundred-yuan bill from his pocket, "You did a good job with this matter, now leave it to us to handle, it's a family affair."
"You're an outsider, don't meddle, this hundred is your tip for the trouble."
Though he made logical points.
Tao Xiaoyi's way of speaking was incredibly insulting.
He waved the hundred-yuan bill in Lin Fan's face.
Lin Fan felt he had been greatly humiliated!!!
Just imagine.
If the hundred-yuan bill was replaced with a bone.
Then the Dragon King of the Dragon King Hall would be reduced to a pet dog.
"I think you're asking for death!!!"
Lin Fan roared in fury and was about to take action.
Xu Mo stepped in front of Tao Xiaoyi, "Wait!!"
Lin Fan paused for some reason.
In his mind, he found an excuse for himself.
He valued martial ethics.
Not resorting to sneak attacks.
Anyway, beating Xu Mo was as easy as beating a dog.
He was just an ordinary person.
"You spoiled brat, what do you want to say?"
Xu Mo pointed at Shen Manni and showed a happy smile, "The solution to this is simple!! Let Shen Manni choose for herself, you or me, fair, right?"
Lin Fan frowned, thinking Xu Mo had a point.
After being drugged.
Shen Manni would lose some judgment.
As long as he guided her with a few words.
Ultimately, Shen Manni would still be his woman, right?
"No way!!" Tao Xiaoyi panicked.
This filthy security guard clearly used underhanded methods.
How despicable of him!!!
Xu Mo said coldly, "Shut up!!"
[Oh my!!!]
[Xiaoyi, you almost messed up the main couple's plot]
[Luckily, young master is smart and fixed the story again]
[Using my butt to think, I know that foolish woman would choose the Dragon King with the crooked smile, why? Because she has no other choice----------wait, what's happening?]
[Hey!! Hey!!! Don't lean on me!!!]
[You're covered in alcohol, it stinks]
Xu Mo was shocked.
Tao Xiaoyi was dumbfounded, unexpected but somewhat expected.
Lin Fan was in tears.
