Villain Is Bodyguard of Heroine’s Poisonous Stepmother Chapter 107: Asked to Play the Cuckold?

This debacle had tarnished the reputations of all three parties, the Luo family, the Li family, and especially Ye Chen, who bore the brunt of the humiliation. The moniker ‘Green Hat Hero’ had gone viral, and now when the upper class of Magic City ntioned Ye Chen, the first thing that probably ca to mind was the ‘Green Hat Hero’. Such a hit to his reputation undoubtedly dealt a significant blow to his protagonist’s fate, dimming the shine of his protagonist’s aura.

“They won’t call off Ye Chen and Li Ting’s wedding after this incident, will they?” asked Zhao Yingxuan.

Chen Luo responded with a shake of his head, “Unlikely. Ye Chen will probably just grin and bear it, and Li Zhong certainly won’t allow the wedding to be canceled.”

Already the butt of jokes, if the Li family were to cancel the wedding, it would only further erode their standing.

Chen Luo couldn’t be entirely sure of his prediction. Perhaps Ye Chen, in a burst of defiance, might turn against the Li family entirely—a scenario Chen Luo would relish witnessing. However, he doubted Ye Chen had the grit for such a stance. If Ye Chen did find the backbone to stand up for himself, Chen Luo would genuinely wish to see it.

Soon enough, Chen Luo was inford the wedding was proceeding as scheduled, even moved forward to take place in just three days instead of a week.

“I’ll definitely send him a big wreath,” Xiao Qingxue remarked with a sneer.

Deep down, she yearned for the death of the man who killed her father.

“I must also give Ye Chen a grand gift.”

Chen Luo was scheming. The idea of not stirring up trouble at the wedding made him restless. His goal was to bring sha upon both Ye Chen and the Li family. Initially, he had no desire to target the Li family directly, but their unwavering support for Ye Chen left him no choice.

It didn’t matter to Chen Luo whether Li Zhong actually detested Ye Chen or what reasons the Li family had for their support. By helping Ye Chen, they had painted a target on their backs for Chen Luo.

After deliberation, Chen Luo decided to et Luo Zixuan, planning to talk with him. Under normal circumstances, securing a eting with Luo Zixuan, especially after their relations soured following Xiao Qingxue’s kidnapping, would be challenging. However, Luo Zixuan’s affections had since been redirected towards Li Ting through Chen Luo’s manipulations, easing the tension between them.

They t at the Rose Bar, a venue owned by White Rose, where Chen Luo and Luo Zixuan sat down together.

“It seems you’re quite disheartened,” said Chen Luo, noting Luo Zixuan’s somber mood, likely aware that Ye Chen and Li Ting’s wedding was going ahead.

“Chen Luo, could you lend a hand? I’ve genuinely fallen for Li Ting. Can you help win her over?” Luo Zixuan, after a heavy swig of his drink, slumped over the table and made his plea.

“If you truly love her, fight for her. If you’re afraid even to attempt that, how can you say to love her? Make a bold move on their wedding day, snatch the bride to prove your love for Li Ting is real.”

The reason for inviting Luo Zixuan out was precisely to incite him into action.

The more tumultuous the better, ideally escalating to a vendetta.

“You’re absolutely right.”

Buzzed from the alcohol, Luo Zixuan felt that Chen Luo’s words made sense. That despicable Ye Chen, how could he ever be worthy of Li Ting?

“Look at it this way, even if their wedding goes ahead, you haven’t lost yet. There’s always divorce after marriage. As long as the hoe is swung well, no corner is impossible to dig.”

“That makes sense. I’ll definitely win Li Ting over.”

“I believe in you, Brother Luo.”

Chen Luo clapped Luo Zixuan on the shoulder, his face betraying a cold smirk. To him, Luo Zixuan was rely a pawn in his ga.

Though allied with the Luo family, Chen Luo didn’t genuinely regard them as friends. He wouldn’t hesitate to exploit Luo Mingde if the opportunity arose.

Luo Zixuan had already intended to disrupt the wedding. Chen Luo’s words only cented his determination, promising an intriguing spectacle ahead.

After a while, Chen Luo had Luo Zixuan’s bodyguards escort him ho.

Chen Luo then made his way upstairs to Bai ixiang’s office, where she was present that day.

Upon his arrival, Bai ixiang stood up, and once Chen Luo seated himself, she seductively sat herself on his lap.

In the ti they had spent together, Chen Luo had taken Bai ixiang’s body, being her first and, it was implied, her only man.

The now seasoned Bai ixiang, while initially lacking experience, had proven to be far more satisfying than Chen Luo’s first encounter with Xiao Qingxue.

Naturally, Chen Luo’s visit was to offer Bai ixiang so comfort.

Qiu Zhu and Dong Ju stood guard outside. It wasn’t until over two hours later that Chen Luo and Bai ixiang finally got around to discussing serious matters.

“The Li family is essentially under Li Zhong’s control. He wields significant influence over the family affairs. His previous wife passed away, leaving behind a daughter, Li Ting. Li Zhong’s current wife is Gu Wanyu. Li Zhong’s heart belonged to his late wife, so his relationship with Gu Wanyu isn’t particularly strong. Together, they have a son, Li Qiwen, who is sixteen years old this year.”

In a sowhat languid tone, Bai ixiang relayed so insights about the Li family to Chen Luo.

“Moreover, Gu Wanyu frequents this bar for drinks. This woman is quite a looker and still young, just thirty-seven, truly in the pri of her beauty. Do you want to help you win over this woman?”

Bai ixiang’s tone was teasing, much like Zhao Yingxuan, both embodying the allure of enchantresses.

In the past, Bai ixiang harbored a certain fear towards Chen Luo. However, now that she’s beco Chen Luo’s woman, she’s notably more audacious.

“Are you suggesting I play the seducer?”

“Here, take a look at her picture. Even if it ans playing the seducer, it’ll be worth it. Plus, she seems quite easy to get. From what I’ve observed, she’s definitely the type to harbor grievances.”

With that, Bai ixiang fetched a photo from the drawer and handed it to Chen Luo.

At thirty-seven, she’s seven years Zhao Yingxuan’s senior. However, looking at her, you wouldn’t guess she was a day over thirty. She was remarkably youthful due to her ticulous self-care. In the photo, she donned a black chiffon dress, showcasing her radiant figure and fair complexion. Her smile, enchanting and irresistible, seed to fill the fra with allure and unmatched beauty.

Comparatively speaking, her charm might slightly lag behind Bai ixiang’s, but only by a slim margin. Where Bai ixiang would garner 97 points, this woman would not fall short of 95. And for the discerning eye of a womanizer, she’d effortlessly score a 99.

“Look closely, there’s a subtle hint of grievance between her brows. This woman will be easy to win over, and having her under control is a significant advantage in our moves against the Li family in the long run. So, could my master be willing to ‘sacrifice’ a bit?” Bai ixiang suggested, her eyelids batting seductively.

“Cough, cough. For the greater good of confronting the Li family, I must make this sacrifice,” Chen Luo declared, his face a mask of feigned nobility. This wasn’t about indulging personal desires, no, it was about strategically positioning a pawn within the Li family. No other ulterior motives were at play.

‘Ah, the things I do for strategy, even sacrificing my own body,’ Chen Luo mused internally.

“To undermine the Li family, what’s a bit more sacrifice?” he said once more.

“I just love your shaless audacity,” Bai ixiang gazed at Chen Luo with mock reverence.

Chen Luo slapped Bai ixiang’s thigh with a light tap. She cast him a look of feigned indignation before nestling closer into his embrace.

“To accuse of being shaless deserves a slap. When have I ever been anything but an upright person?” Chen Luo’s self-mockery knew no bounds.
