Villain Is Bodyguard of Heroine's Poisonous Stepmother

After Chen Luo killed Jin Sanye, severing one of the arms of the Wang family, the Wang family did not sit idle. Enduring silently for a few days, they began their revenge.

First, they sent people to attack the bar and club owned by Bai Meixiang. However, Bai Meixiang was prepared and did not suffer a loss, instead she gained an advantage.

Then, they suppressed Zhao Yingxuan’s cosmetics company. The highly profitable cosmetics company faced significant impact under the Wang family’s oppression. Fortunately, Zhao Yingxuan had her own tactics, preventing the Wang family from completely overthrowing her cosmetics conglomerate.

“The Wang family is really courting death.”

Zhao Yingxuan’s eyes were filled with murderous intent, as she was not someone willing to suffer losses. Even though Zhao Yingxuan endured the Wang family’s oppression, the losses were not insignificant. She believed these losses should be compensated by the Wang family.

“Dear, do you have a way to deal with the Wang family?”

Although Zhao Yingxuan was angry at the Wang family, she didn’t really have a way to harm them. After all, they were one of the four major families in the city.

While Zhao Yingxuan had some means, relying solely on her abilities to take revenge on the Wang family was difficult.

“Did you forget about that black notebook in your hand?” Chen Luo reminded Zhao Yingxuan.

“Oh, right.”

Zhao Yingxuan suddenly remembered the black notebook, which she obtained from Liang Xinghu. Well, she bought it from Chen Luo, and at that time, she and Chen Luo were not as close as they were now, so she had to pay for it.

It recorded some criminal evidence of certain individuals, including some influential figures who could cause a lot of trouble for the Wang family.

“This item, don’t use it yourself, hand it over to Bai Meixiang.”

“Okay, I understand.”

Zhao Yingxuan nodded. This was something that could attract hatred. Using it would indeed gain the support of those influential figures, but it would also make her a target in their eyes. If it was given to Bai Meixiang, she could arrange for others to draw the hatred, keeping it away from themselves.

Zhao Yingxuan took out the notebook and handed it to Xia Lan, instructing her to deliver it to Bai Meixiang.

Meanwhile, Chen Luo’s phone rang. It was a call from Li Ting.

“Chen Luo, are you playing me? Didn’t you promise to help me get Ye Chen? Why is there still no movement? I heard you injured Ye Chen. Don’t you know that Ye Chen is the man I’m interested in?”

Li Ting’s tone was full of anger.

“Miss Li, don’t be so agitated. The little injury I caused him is nothing for his tough skin and flesh.”

This wasn’t entirely a lie. Ye Chen was indeed tough, like an indestructible cockroach. As long as his protagonist’s aura didn’t fade, no matter how many times he got injured, he could always stand up again.

“I need to find the right opportunity to help you. Last time, I injured him to help Miss Li get him, but unfortunately, it failed. This time I assure you of absolute success. I will definitely help you get Ye Chen, but I need Miss Li to do me a favor,” Chen Luo said with a smile.

“What favor?”

The anger in Li Ting’s voice did not diminish at all.

“It’s simple. You just need to arrange a meeting with Ye Chen. That way, I’ll have an opportunity to take action. Otherwise, do you want me to kidnap him from the Wang family and deliver him to your bed?”

Ye Chen had been staying at the Wang family’s house to recover from his injuries, and Chen Luo hadn’t found an opportunity to plot against Ye Chen. Now that Li Ting had called, it was a perfect chance to use her to lure Ye Chen out.

Chen Luo was eager to plot against Ye Chen, just waiting for him to come out and fall into his trap. Ye Chen’s continuous stay at the Wang family’s house was making Chen Luo anxious.

“How can I get him to come out?”

Li Ting had no confidence in getting Ye Chen to agree to meet. Ye Chen had no interest in her and didn’t even answer her calls. This made Li Ting increasingly angry. The man she fancied was completely ignoring her, which infuriated her.

“It’s easy. I have a plan that will guarantee to lure him out.”

“What’s the plan?” Li Ting asked excitedly, eager to know Chen Luo’s idea.

Perhaps the more unattainable something is, the more one wants it. The less Ye Chen liked her and ignored her, the more interested she became in him. Along with this interest, Li Ting’s mind harbored some violent thoughts.

‘You’re ignoring me now, but once I have you, I’ll make sure you regret it.’

The rich woman’s joy toy might just be the trick.

A twisted smile appeared on Li Ting’s face, as if she could already see Ye Chen trembling in fear. Her smile grew more unrestrained.

It was undeniable that Li Ting’s personality was quite similar to some rich and spoiled young masters.

“Luring Ye Chen out is simple. You just need to say you have information about Xiao Qingxue, and that will draw him out.”

Chen Luo’s face was filled with absolute confidence.

Information about Xiao Qingxue would definitely unsettle Ye Chen. After all, Xiao Qingxue was the leading female character, and even if Ye Chen suspected something between Chen Luo and Xiao Qingxue, he surely couldn’t stop thinking about her.

“Just that simple?”

“Yes, just that simple.”

“I hope you’re not deceiving me.”

Li Ting hastily ended the call and then proceeded to try her plan. She couldn’t get through to Ye Chen’s phone, but Li Ting had her ways. She could contact Wang Hong.

“Uncle Wang, can you pass a message to Ye Chen for me? I have some secret information about Xiao Qingxue,” Li Ting spoke to Wang Hong.

“Why don’t you find him yourself? Why ask me to convey the message?” Wang Hong frowned and asked.

“I would if he was willing to see me,” Li Ting said with a dark, grim expression.

“I will pass the message to him.”

Wang Hong frowned deeply, wondering what Li Ting was up to. However, he knew that Ye Chen was fond of Xiao Qingxue.

Xiao Qingxue was indeed impressive, known as the most beautiful woman in the city by the younger generation. The key point was not just her beauty; she was not merely a pretty face. Her capabilities were also formidable, and Wang Hong’s son, Wang Fei, also had feelings for Xiao Qingxue.

After pondering for a while, Wang Hong decided to relay the message to Ye Chen. As expected, upon hearing this news, Ye Chen became unsettled.

“Is Li Ting deceiving me, or does she really have secret information about Xiao Qingxue?”

After some thought, Ye Chen decided to call Li Ting. He had previously blocked her number but now retrieved it again through Wang Hong.

“Tell me what you know.” Ye Chen spoke in a commanding tone.

Hearing Ye Chen’s voice, Li Ting felt a mix of excitement and anger.

“Oh, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t contact you, and meeting you seemed as difficult as reaching the heavens. But just by mentioning Xiao Qingxue, you contacted me.”

Li Ting couldn’t help but feel jealous and angry.

‘Wait and see, Ye Chen, I’ll make you regret this.’

Li Ting’s feelings were complex at this moment. She both liked and hated Ye Chen. She wanted to have him but also wanted him to receive the punishment he deserved.

“If you want to know, then come and meet me. Let’s meet at the Starbucks in Wanxing Mall. The information I have is very secretive.”

After saying this, Li Ting hung up decisively. She didn’t answer any of Ye Chen’s subsequent calls, following the strategy Chen Luo had taught her. Otherwise, Li Ting wouldn’t have been so cunning.

“Then I’ll go meet Li Ting.”

Ye Chen’s expression was dark and uncertain. After much deliberation, he still wanted to know the truth, even if Li Ting was deceiving him. He wasn’t worried about Li Ting plotting against him. First, he knew Li Ting liked him, so how could she possibly scheme against him? Ye Chen was perhaps too confident.
