Who Made Him an Antagonist

23: Chapter 23 Three Slaps to Wake Up Chen YuanmengAt the engagement banquet, the visiting guests had all eaten and drunk their fill.

As the protagonist of the event, Mu Xinyi was naturally no exception.

Gulp!

Mu Xinyi swallowed hard.

Her cheeks were so flushed with shame they looked ready to drip blood.

She glared at Qin Ge and said irritably, ”Qin Ge, you better not lie to me, or I’ll make you regret it!”

Qin Ge gave Mu Xinyi’s shoulder a reassuring pat and sighed, ”In the end, your defenses finally crumbled.”

”Given your normal personality, after suffering a loss, you certainly wouldn’t go out of your way to draw more hatred.”

Mu Xinyi felt her brain wasn’t quite working right in front of Qin Ge, so she simply threw caution to the wind. ”None of your business! *Cough, cough*...”

Qin Ge gave her some reassurance, saying, ”Don’t worry, I have no reason to lie to you.”

In reality, if it weren’t for the fact that this black-bellied loli Mu Xinyi was too smart...

...and far too good at weighing pros and cons...

...he wouldn’t have used this kind of threatening method.

He needed to ensure he was bound together with Mu Xinyi.

Compared to coercion, Qin Ge preferred total conquest of both body and mind.

That sense of achievement without future worries was far more lasting and intense...

...than the momentary pleasure of the present!

However, special circumstances required special treatment.

Qin Ge wasn’t stubborn.

He didn’t know if forced fruit was sweet, but it certainly quenched one’s thirst!

After returning to his old trade and solidifying his persona as a diligent pilot, Qin Ge didn’t forget the main business.

The engagement banquet was nearing its end.

At this time, the naturally timid Lin Xiaojin must be looking forward to his arrival with great anticipation.

After all, in an unfamiliar place...

...she would only feel safest by the side of someone she knew, like him.

But Qin Ge didn’t show up again; instead, he directly had a female driver send Lin Xiaojin home.

To put it properly, that sense of longing and expectation for him in Lin Xiaojin’s heart still needed further strengthening.

To put it bluntly,

Lin Xiaojin?

She needed to settle and brew for a bit longer!

The banquet dispersed,

Qin Ge and Mu Xinyi headed toward the banquet hall together.

When Patriarch Mu and Chen Kai saw the two of them, they both frowned simultaneously:

”Xin Yi?”

”Qin Ge?!”

Just then, Chen Yuan, who had previously gone to chase the assassin, rushed back in a flurry.

In his hand, he was dragging a burly man like a dead dog.

Catching sight of Qin Ge in the banquet hall, Chen Yuan sneered in his heart.

A rich Young Master.

How could he compare to himself?

No matter how much money he had, a rich Young Master only had one life.

If he wanted to take it, he could crush Qin Ge into a dead dog on the spot.

Chen Yuan looked at Patriarch Mu, tossed the assassin aside, and claimed credit, ”Mr. Mu, the assassin has been found, but he took poison beforehand and committed suicide to escape punishment.”

Hearing this, Mu Xinyi, wearing her traditional wedding dress with a coat draped over her, stepped forward quickly to examine the assassin who had already stopped breathing.

”Miss Xin Yi, rest assured, with me around from now on, something like today will never happen again.”

Chen Yuan looked at Mu Xinyi’s delicate loli face, his mind wandering.

He had been eyeing this eldest daughter of the Mu Family for more than a day or two.

One couldn’t say she was devastatingly beautiful,

but Mu Xinyi’s temptation to any man was absolutely, inhumanly massive!

All her ’buffs’ were maxed out.

A top-tier, legal loli of the human world!

Mu Xinyi looked up and swung her hand in a slap.

Slap!

The crisp sound of the slap was exceptionally jarring in the banquet hall.

Mu Xinyi’s face was full of rage, her chest heaving as she shouted, ”Useless! I asked you to catch an assassin, and you bring back a corpse.”

”The man is dead, what can we possibly learn now?”

”Who knows if this is just some scapegoat you found?”

Chen Yuan clutched his cheek, dazed. ”Miss Xin Yi?”

He remembered that previously, Mu Xinyi often smiled at him.

Why had her attitude changed so drastically today?

Slap—!

Mu Xinyi gave Chen Yuan another backhanded slap and scolded him in a fury: ”This slap is for your blindness. My name is Mu Xinyi. You can call me Eldest Young Miss or Miss Mu. Is ’Xin Yi’ a name a servant like you can call me?”

Previously, having seen Chen Yuan’s skills, she had wanted to take him under her wing as a death soldier.

But now, with Qin Ge’s presence,

it was destined that Chen Yuan could not be used by her.

As such, there was no longer any need to consider Chen Yuan’s feelings at all.

Even Patriarch Mu, seeing this, couldn’t help but speak up to persuade her, ”Xin Yi, what are you doing? Chen Yuan has merit and no fault. Do you want to make everyone who works for our Mu Family lose heart?”

Hearing this, Mu Xinyi withdrew her already aching right hand and used her left hand to give Chen Yuan a third massive slap, scolding him angrily, ”A mere servant, yet you dare sow discord between my father and me. Curse your dog eyes!”

Clap, clap, clap!

Seeing this, Qin Ge couldn’t help but clap and cheer.

Wonderful!

Simply wonderful!

It’s so wonderful it’s practically a miracle—absolutely brilliant.

Chen Yuan’s face was full of rage, and bloodshot lines instantly filled his eyes.

He stared at Qin Ge with eyes nearly splitting, gritting his teeth as he said, ”Qin Ge!?”

Qin Ge rolled his eyes with a ’Super Invincible Plus’ look of boredom, ”You’re damn well sick in the head. Does my clapping bother you too?”

”What’s the matter, turning your shame into anger?”

”You aren’t planning to bully a weak, defenseless woman, are you?”

Chen Yuan’s pupils shook violently.

Enduring again and again, the Evil Qi around him erupted uncontrollably.

It scared Mu Xinyi so much she stumbled back several steps.

She was terrified Chen Yuan might slap her to death.

Chen Yuan exhaled a heavy breath of turbid air, looked at Patriarch Mu, and snarled, ”Old dog, the humiliation of today shall be repaid a hundredfold in the future!”

Hmph!

Chen Yuan gave a cold snort, then turned around and strode away.

Immediately after, System notification sounds rang out continuously in Qin Ge’s mind.

”Ding! Child of Destiny Chen Yuan has developed intense killing intent toward the Host. Reward: +5,000 villain points!”

”Ding! The Child of Destiny’s shame has turned to rage, his defenses shattered by the slaps. Reward: +10,000 villain points!”

Tsk tsk tsk!

Truly worthy of being a Child of Destiny.

Qin Ge couldn’t help but marvel in his heart.

This ability to endure was truly a sight to behold.

If it were him, never mind three slaps in a row...

...the moment Mu Xinyi made a move, he would have kicked her so hard she’d be embedded in the wall.

Clearly furious to the point of exploding, yet he could just shout an insult and walk away?

Doing what?

Drawing agro and padding the word count?

If it were him, if the Mu Family could still find an unbroken egg or a crawling earthworm by the next day, he’d consider himself not a man!

”Scared me to death!”

”Brother Qin Ge, I’m so scared.”

After Mu Xinyi frantically slapped Chen Yuan’s face on Qin Ge’s behalf, she decisively demanded Qin Ge fulfill his promise.

In a panic, she lunged headlong into Qin Ge’s arms.

She looked as clingy as could be!

Patriarch Mu’s pupils shook violently.

Chen Kai was still right there.

What was his daughter doing?

Being a ’NTR’ protagonist right in front of everyone...

...and cuckolding Chen Kai?!

Chen Kai was the son of the Chen family from Magic City.

Even if they couldn’t compare to the Wang or Huang families of Magic City,

the Chen family’s background was not much inferior.

In Chen Kai’s eyes, Mu Xinyi was already his prize.

Seeing Mu Xinyi snuggling so intimately in Qin Ge’s arms now,

how could he not be enraged?

Creak!

Chen Kai nearly crushed his molars, gritting his teeth in fury as he barked, ”Mu Xinyi, what are you doing!?”
