Golden Luxury KTV was located in a bustling area of the magical city. Even though it wasn't nighttime, there were still many people in the vicinity.
So, when Ma Bing led more than a dozen black-suited bodyguards carrying the unconscious Liu Dong and Liu Wan out of Golden Luxury, it immediately caused a commotion and uproar.
"What's going on? Who are these people?"
"What happened to Liu Dong? Why is his face bruised?"
"Damn, these people are openly kidnapping Liu Dong from Golden Luxury!"
"Who did Liu Dong offend?"
Many people gathered at the roadside, discussing the current scene.
At present, both Liu Dong and Liu Wan had bruised faces, obviously having been beaten, and both were unconscious!
Everyone could see that Ma Bing and his men had forcibly entered Golden Luxury and taken Liu Dong and Liu Wan.
This made everyone wonder what powerful figure Liu Dong had offended.
However, at this moment, someone had a flash of insight, and a name appeared in their mind.
—Gu Chenan!
"Could this be Gu Chenan's doing?!"
The city's underworld was a mixed bag, and although Liu Dong wasn't exactly an underground kingpin, he was still a feared local boss, and he hadn't made enemies with others in the underworld!
If there was anyone he had crossed, it would only be Gu Chenan, who had suddenly risen to fame in the city recently!
Moreover, just earlier today, many people had seen Liu Dong's subordinate Wang Hu leading a group of men to Caiying in a grand display!
Obviously, Liu Dong was seeking revenge for Gu Chenan's humiliation!
After someone mentioned Gu Chenan's name, another person pondered for a moment and said, "That's impossible. Isn't Gu Chenan just the boy toy of that female CEO at Caiying? How would he have the power to treat Liu Dong like this?"
"Heh," someone else laughed. "This Gu Chenan first beat Liu Dong's daughter, then beat Liu Dong's subordinate Li Lin, and even took an extremely humiliating video of Li Lin. Why wouldn't he dare to treat Liu Dong like this?"
"Exactly, Liu Dong was the one who sent people marching to Caiying to find Gu Chenan first. Gu Chenan is just giving him a taste of his own medicine."
"But still, Gu Chenan doing this means he's declaring all-out war against Liu Dong!"
"Gu Chenan must have some powerful backing to dare do this."
As people discussed the matter between Gu Chenan and Liu Dong, many took out their phones to record the scene.
With an attitude of enjoying the drama, they casually posted these photos and videos online.
Immediately, it caused a huge stir on the internet.
However, many people believed that the ones who kidnapped Liu Dong couldn't possibly be Gu Chenan but someone else.
Perhaps Liu Dong had offended some other powerful figure!
......
At Caiying.
Gu Chenan sat cross-legged on the office sofa, calmly waiting for Ma Bing to bring Liu Dong and his daughter.
As for the men Wang Hu had brought, they were now all obediently squatting at Gu Chenan's feet, each bearing injuries, especially Wang Hu.
Of course, these men weren't just squatting there because of Gu Chenan's words alone.
Earlier, some of those who had been knocked unconscious by Ma Bing had woken up and tried to leave, but after seeing Gu Chenan kick one person flying, they all abandoned that idea.
Knock knock knock~
Soon, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in."
The office door opened, and Ma Bing entered with the black-suited bodyguards carrying the still unconscious Liu Dong and his daughter.
"Young Master Gu!"
The black-suited bodyguards behind Ma Bing lined up and respectfully greeted Gu Chenan.
Their respectful attitude left Wang Hu's men dumbfounded, especially when they saw Liu Dong and Liu Wan.
They were all completely confused.
Who exactly was this Gu Chenan?
Wasn't he supposed to be just a pretty boy according to rumors?
Are you telling me someone with more than a dozen professional bodyguards is just a pretty boy?
Who spread those rumors? I'll give them a piece of my mind!
"Young Master Gu, they're here," Ma Bing said, then turned back and ordered, "Put them here."
The black-suited bodyguards followed the order and dumped Liu Dong and Liu Wan, who were like limp rags, in front of Gu Chenan.
Gu Chenan picked up a teacup from the coffee table and splashed the tea on their faces. Both immediately jolted awake.
"Awake now? Did you sleep well?" Gu Chenan asked mockingly.
"Gu Chenan, what do you want? I'm telling you, I won't let you get away with what happened today!" Before Liu Dong could speak, Liu Wan pointed at Gu Chenan and shouted.
After yelling at Gu Chenan, she then pointed at Ma Bing and said, "You dare to hit me? Just you wait, you'll regret this!"
"Wan, be quiet," Liu Dong quickly pulled at Liu Wan's clothes.
Liu Wan frowned and turned back: "Dad, why are you afraid of them? I don't believe he dares to do anything to us. You know so many important people in the city after all these years, why should we fear some nouveau riche?"
Liu Dong was different from Liu Wan. He had become a local boss through years of social experience and hardship, so he was excellent at reading situations and understanding the current circumstances.
However, Liu Wan had been spoiled since childhood and had developed a mindset that she was above everyone else.
So even in this situation, she didn't feel any fear at all, believing that Gu Chenan wouldn't dare do anything to her.
Combined with the fact that Liu Dong knew several powerful figures, Liu Wan didn't take Gu Chenan seriously at all.
"You're just some nouveau riche, making people call you Young Master Gu, how disgusting is that?"
Liu Wan gave Gu Chenan a contemptuous look and continued: "Let me tell you, you'd better let us go quickly, or you'll face the consequences!"
"Uh."
Gu Chenan was speechless. Liu Wan was really confident.
"Make her quiet down," Gu Chenan waved his hand at a bodyguard near Liu Wan, ignoring her barking.
"Yes!"
The bodyguard nodded and swung his arm, delivering a resounding slap to Liu Wan's face.
"Slap!"
The crisp sound echoed throughout the office, startling Wang Hu and his men.
Liu Dong's eyes filled with pain as he immediately said, "Gu Chenan, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't hit Wan."
"I like peace and quiet," Gu Chenan smiled and looked at Liu Dong, ready to get down to business.
But at this moment, Liu Wan started howling like a madwoman: "Gu Chenan, who do you think you are!"
"Your family just runs a small convenience store, what are you pretending to be?"
"You dare to have people hit me? Go ahead, let them continue hitting me if you've got the guts!"
Gu Chenan was stunned, blinking in confusion.
Well, that's a request he'd never heard before in his life.
Gu Chenan pretended to be angry and said, "Didn't you hear? Miss Liu wants you to hit her. Quick, hit her, don't hold back, one slap each, put your strength into it!"
"Yes!"
The black-suited bodyguards immediately nodded and surrounded Liu Wan.
Fear filled Liu Wan's eyes as she tried to back away, but before she could retreat more than a few steps, another loud slap rang out.
