The Villain Who Slapped the Heroines Until They Begged to Marry Him - Chapter 32:
Chapter 32: You’d Better Stay Away From Her!:
“Yang Lu, you know my friend doesn’t like you much, right? But she’s not in good health,” Lin Xiaohan said as they entered the Zhu family home, looking at Yang Lu with pleading eyes. “If she says anything rude, I hope you won’t take it to heart. Alright?”
Yang Lu smiled and replied, “If you give me a kiss, maybe I won’t mind.”
“Alright, you promised!”
Yang Lu had only been joking—there were so many people around, he didn’t think Lin Xiaohan would actually do it. But to his surprise, she leaned over and gave him a quick peck.
“Has she changed?” He wondered, a bit stunned.
At this moment, Yang Lu felt a pair of hostile eyes watching him. He didn’t need to turn around to know it was the Soldier King, Zhao Ritian. Ignoring him, Yang Lu followed Lin Xiaohan inside, leaving Zhao Ritian to stew in his own frustration.
“Damn it! That bastard!” Zhao Ritian clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with anger. He’d seen it all—Lin Xiaohan had willingly kissed Yang Lu. That jerk must have used some kind of spell! Otherwise, she’d never act like that. ‘He stole my woman; we cannot exist under the same sky!’
“Xiaohan, you’re here… Yang Lu? What are you doing here? I don’t recall inviting you!”
As they stepped into the hall, a girl approached. She was just as beautiful as Lin Xiaohan but looked a bit younger. It was Zhu Zhimin, the birthday girl. She greeted Lin Xiaohan with joy, but her face sank when she saw Yang Lu.
“Xiaohan invited me.” Yang Lu replied.
“Xiaohan, why did you bring him? You know what he’s like! I thought you couldn’t stand him?”
Lin Xiaohan responded, “Xiaomin, don’t be like that. Yang Lu’s not so bad.”
“What? You—come here!”
Zhu Zhimin looked at Lin Xiaohan, shocked and speechless. How could she say something like that? Not long ago, she had been the one who disliked Yang Lu the most. But now she was defending him? It was baffling.
“Xiaohan, tell me what’s going on. Why are you with him? This isn’t like you! Weren’t you the one who couldn’t stand him?”
“Well… We’re dating now, and I think he’s actually a good person.”
“What?!”
Zhu Zhimin stared at Lin Xiaohan, disbelief written all over her face. Her friend’s cheeks were pink with embarrassment, so this wasn’t a joke. She couldn’t believe it—was Xiaohan really dating such a notorious playboy? She had to be kidding!
Then Zhu Zhimin’s expression turned serious. “I get it! He must be blackmailing you. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of this!”
“Xiaomin, wait!”
Zhu Zhimin ignored Lin Xiaohan’s protests and marched over to Yang Lu. She was sure he must’ve used some underhanded method to force Xiaohan into this relationship. This guy was despicable! Lin Xiaohan was her best friend, and there was no way she’d let this slide.
“Yang Lu, I don’t care what you’ve done to manipulate Xiaohan,” Zhu Zhimin said, stopping in front of him. “I’m telling you, stay away from her. If you don’t, I, Zhu Zhimin, will make you regret it for the rest of your life! Do you hear me?”
Yang Lu just rolled his eyes at her, unfazed. If he hadn’t promised Lin Xiaohan he’d be on his best behavior, he would’ve put her in her place. What part of this situation made her think he was forcing Lin Xiaohan? He made a mental note to pay her back for her rudeness later.
Just then, Lin Xiaohan ran over, visibly upset. “Xiaomin, that’s enough! I’m not some fool! If you keep this up, don’t blame me if I get mad.”
“You… fine, I won’t meddle anymore.”
Zhu Zhimin stared at her friend in disbelief.
Was this really happening?
She sighed, realizing she might be coming off as ungrateful.
“Fine, I’ll drop it for now..” She thought, as her father signaled for her to join him.
“Sorry about that, Yang Lu. She just…”
“No worries. Who knows? Maybe she’ll be the one asking me for help soon.”
Lin Xiaohan was puzzled by his remark, unsure what he meant. But before she could ask, Zhu Zhimin’s father took the microphone on stage.
“Welcome, everyone, to the Zhu family home! Today, we celebrate my daughter’s 23rd birthday, and I couldn’t be happier.”
Standing by his side, Zhu Zhimin beamed with joy, her face lighting up as she basked in the love and celebration surrounding her.
