On the Day of the Grand Wedding, My Wife Was Acting Strange - Chapter 11:

Chapter 11: You Despicable Scoundrel!

“What!?”

Gu Beichen’s eyes nearly popped out of his head.

It was as if he had heard the most outrageous news in the world.

The Gu family had stood tall in the capital for many years, wielding great power and influence. No one had ever dared to cause trouble in their establishments.

Beside him, Liu Shuyao put down her teacup, a glint of coldness flashing in her beautiful eyes as she spoke to Gu Beichen in the tone of a matriarch, “Someone actually dared to smash our place, Gu Lang, this matter cannot be taken lightly!”

The words “our family” pierced straight into Gu Beichen’s heart.

The woman he loved had finally accepted him!

She finally admitted they were one family!

Lin Zhen, even though you used force to take her body, what I, Gu Beichen, have is her heart!

You will always be beneath me!

Gu Beichen clenched his fists in excitement, eager to embrace Liu Shuyao and do something beyond propriety and shame.

The two stood together, showing a united front as if they would share both fortune and misfortune.

“Shuyao, let’s go and take a look.”

“Let’s see who has the guts to challenge the Gu family!”

“Yes, Gu Lang, as long as I’m with you, I fear nothing!”

…

For soldiers who had killed before, dealing with the local thugs guarding the casino was like adults bullying children.

Especially since the soldiers showed no restraint, every punch was lethal, every strike drew blood. In less than fifteen minutes, all the thugs in Yuanda Casino were beaten to the ground.

Lin Zhen held Zhang Li captive, sitting on a luohan bed.

Her hands and feet were bound tightly with ox tendons, making it impossible to break free. She lay horizontally across Lin Zhen’s lap, squirming like a caterpillar.

Such an undignified posture did not ignite Lin Zhen’s lust, nor did he take advantage of her.

Zhang Li was the first woman he planned to tame, and he would not treat her with crude methods.

Watching the beauty squirm in his arms, Lin Zhen said indulgently, “Stop wriggling, you’re like a little pig.”

“You are the pig! Lin Zhen, you recklessly disrupt the balance of the noble families and vandalize businesses. Do you still have any respect for the law?” Zhang Li obviously didn’t share Lin Zhen’s tenderness, her attitude was harsh.

Lin Zhen sneered, “Law? Hmph, as long as my old man is alive, I am the law!”

With a beauty in his arms, her fragrance surrounding him, Lin Zhen tried to control his restless desires, but it was clearly ineffective.

Zhang Li felt his changes and became both shy and anxious.

“Lin Zhen, you bastard, scoundrel!!”

“Hahaha.” The fat man beside them burst into laughter upon hearing this. “That’s my big brother for you. If it were Lu Dehao, he wouldn’t even get to touch her!”

Lu Dehao, who had been hit in the head with a brick by the thugs earlier, was now grimacing in pain. Hearing the fat man’s mockery, he cursed angrily, “Screw you!”

Zhang Li struggled, “Lin Zhen, let me go! Or when Young Master Gu arrives, you won’t even have the chance to kneel and beg for mercy!”

“A useless man who only dares to sneak around—what can he do to me?”

“Let me see who dares to talk so big?”

Gu Beichen had arrived.

At the entrance, sunlight spilled over his body, making him appear as if bathed in golden light.

“Young Master!”

“Young Master, you finally arrived!”

“Lin Zhen brought people to smash our casino and beat our men!”

“Even the manager was taken hostage by him!”

Everyone was moved to tears at the sight of him, rushing over and kneeling at his feet.

This was the protagonist’s halo.

His charm was off the charts, making everyone around him loyal to death, treating him as a god.

Zhang Li was no exception. Seeing Gu Beichen personally come to rescue her, her eyes were filled with affection.

If Gu Beichen wanted her now, she would gladly comply.

Unfortunately, she was currently in Lin Zhen’s arms.

“Young Master Gu, save me!”

Gu Beichen never expected the one causing trouble to be Lin Zhen. He glanced back guiltily at Liu Shuyao but did not respond to Zhang Li.

At this moment, he deeply regretted it.

He had been too careless this time and could only pray that Lin Zhen was blind and didn’t recognize him.

Liu Shuyao, hidden under her bamboo hat, also had a complicated expression, her apricot eyes wide open.

She had no idea the one causing trouble was Lin Zhen. Otherwise, she would never have come.

Because that would be too embarrassing!

Fortunately, Lin Zhen didn’t seem to recognize her.

Lin Zhen noticed Liu Shuyao’s chest heaving and knew she was secretly sighing in relief.

In fact, he had seen Liu Shuyao the moment he entered.

He just chose not to expose her.

“Lin Zhen, you truly don’t understand the rules!” Gu Beichen looked at the chaos and injured men on the ground, his neck red with anger. “As the young master of the Regent’s Mansion, you dare to commit such despicable acts. Do you still have any regard for the law, or His Majesty!”

Lin Zhen smiled playfully, “Gu Beichen, spare me the act. Trying to use His Majesty to pressure me?”

“Do you dare to disrespect His Majesty?”

“I wouldn’t dare. But I’m just here to play. Is playing a crime? Or is it that His Majesty forbids me from playing?”

“Playing?” Gu Beichen pointed at the people and wreckage on the ground, “Is this what you call playing?”

“Exactly. I just wanted to play with your manager, but she refused and even ordered people to hit me.”

Lin Zhen patted Zhang Li’s slender waist. “I’m at least the young master of the Regent’s Mansion. How can I be casually beaten?”

Zhang Li shouted, “Nonsense! Young Master Gu, don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s here to cause trouble on purpose!”

Lin Zhen’s large hand smacked her butt hard.

“Pa!”

The slap made Zhang Li feel like her bones were turning soft. She screamed in fear, “Ah!”

“Lin Zhen!” Seeing Lin Zhen bully his subordinate like this, Gu Beichen was thoroughly enraged.

Even if Zhang Li was just a dog raised by the Gu family, he couldn’t stand by and do nothing, or it would chill the hearts of those beneath him.

“As the young master, you bully a woman. Do you have no shame?”

“Shame? Gu Beichen, do you have the right to say that? Wasn’t it you who was caught having an affair with my wife in my house yesterday?”

As he spoke, Lin Zhen glanced mockingly at Liu Shuyao, who was wearing the bamboo hat, his tone dripping with sarcasm, “Yo, yesterday you were all lovey-dovey with my wife, and today you’re with someone else? I wonder if Shuyao would be heartbroken if she knew?”

Liu Shuyao involuntarily took a step back.

Gu Beichen was also left speechless.

He didn’t expect Lin Zhen to be so sharp-tongued, leaving no room for rebuttal.

If he admitted that the person beside him was Liu Shuyao, it would be the same as confessing; if he denied it, he would be seen as an irresponsible, unfaithful scumbag.

Either way, it would ruin his reputation.

But as the protagonist, Gu Beichen was no fool.

He simply ignored Lin Zhen’s words, ordered his subordinates to bring over a chair, sat down, and deliberately changed the subject.

“Lin Zhen, I don’t want to argue with you. You smashed my casino—how will you compensate?”

Lin Zhen adjusted Zhang Li’s position, holding her more comfortably.

“You might as well give me this casino.”

“I said you compensate me!”

“Exactly, you compensate me. Your father promised to give the Regent’s Mansion an answer within three days. I won’t make it hard for you—just give me this casino.”
