Everyone in the Group is a Main Character, Except Me Who's the Villain

227: Chapter 227 The Abandoned Son of a Wealthy FamilyBefore taking action, Lu Chenzhou had conducted a comprehensive investigation of Fang Ming through the Feng Family and the Qin Family.

Not only did he know that Vermillion Bird had left Chengdu, but he also knew that the Grandmaster by Fang Ming’s side had left as well.

Therefore, the Bodyguards he brought were not particularly strong.

Liu Qingyan was the only Cultivator among the subordinates Lu Chenzhou brought this time.

Since True Qi can increase a Cultivator’s strength, speed, and defense, it circulates automatically to reduce damage when they are attacked.

Fang Ming’s kick was only at the level used to deal with ordinary Bodyguards, so even after taking the hit, she was still able to move freely.

However, she never imagined that Fang Ming not only possessed the strength of a Grandmaster but also had high-tech gadgets obtained from Chu Feng. Trying to escape from right under his nose? It was undoubtedly a pipe dream.

When Fang Ming stood before her, she was completely dazed; before she could even react, she blacked out.

Fang Ming ignored her. While reclaiming the Scroll, he took out his phone and made a call.

”Hello, someone kidnapped me and my girlfriend. Come and handle this. The address is...”

”Okay, I’ll be there in twenty minutes.”

Twenty minutes later, several police cars came whistling to a halt. Ji Ling frost led a team of criminal investigators out of the cars and took Lu Chenzhou and his Bodyguards back to the police station.

Another half hour passed. As Ji Ling frost watched the first-person perspective video provided by Fang Ming, she immediately confirmed the criminal facts of Lu Chenzhou and his group.

Although the video only showed the first half and didn’t include the scenes of Ye Nuannuan using the Scroll or Fang Ming taking action, it was already more than enough.

Lu Chenzhou already had a criminal record. Furthermore, he had used a driver to take Fang Ming and Ye Nuannuan to the outskirts and was carrying a gun; his intent to kidnap was very obvious.

Even if Fang Ming and Ye Nuannuan had fought back, it would be considered self-defense.

...

The next morning, Yanjing, the Lu family’s old residence.

The early morning sunlight filtered through the carved windows into the study, casting mottled shadows on the floor.

Lu Zhengnan sat behind a large mahogany desk, holding a cup of freshly brewed Mingqian Longjing tea, the aroma curling upward.

His phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID—it was a number from Chengdu—and answered it.

”Hello?”

”Master, something has happened. The young master... the young master was arrested last night.”

Lu Zhengnan’s hand holding the teacup paused. ”Arrested? On what charges?”

”Kidnapping, illegal detention, hiring someone to cause injury...” The Bodyguard’s voice grew lower and lower. ”The Chengdu police released a report early this morning. The young master is suspected of kidnapping Ye Nuannuan and her boyfriend. With conclusive evidence, he has been placed under criminal detention.”

”Useless.”

Lu Zhengnan threw the teacup directly onto the floor and cursed out loud.

”I repeatedly warned him not to go to Chengdu and not to touch that woman again. But he just had to sneak off and get himself locked up.”

”Is that Ye Nuannuan really that good? Is she worth him taking risks time and time again? Is she worth him throwing himself away?”

On the other end of the line, the Bodyguard didn’t dare to respond.

”What’s the situation now? Can we bail him out?”

”We’ve already contacted the people in Chengdu, but...” The Bodyguard paused. ”The other party has a video. The video clearly shows the young master leading people to surround their car...”

Lu Zhengnan closed his eyes in despair and took a deep breath.

”Then have the lawyers follow the procedure. If bail isn’t possible, wait for the trial. Drag it out for a while, and once the heat dies down...”

”Master...” The Bodyguard interrupted him, his tone sounding a bit fearful. ”There’s one more thing. Besides his dislocated limbs... the young master’s brain might have some issues...”

Lu Zhengnan was startled. ”What did you say?”

”The young master woke up this morning, but... but the situation isn’t quite right. He sits on the bed with a vacant stare. We call him, but he doesn’t respond. We ask him questions, but he doesn’t answer. He just... just sits there, drooling from the corner of his mouth.”

”He was sent to the hospital for an examination. The doctors said the dislocated limbs have been reset and will be fine after a few days of rest, but as for his brain... they can’t find any issues.”

Lu Zhengnan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, his vision went black, and he fainted directly.

...

Obviously, Fang Ming didn’t kill them.

Even though there were no surveillance cameras or witnesses, a death in Xia Country is a major event after all, not to mention the other party was the son of a wealthy family.

Once Fang Ming committed murder, the police would investigate with full force.

If Fang Ming, without using the thousand illusions mask, killed the heir of the Lu Group, he would basically have to say goodbye to his life as an ordinary person.

However, he was now a Grandmaster, and he could fully utilize the Nine Yang Divine Needles. It was easy to knock the others out and turn Lu Chenzhou into an idiot.

Unless the Divine Doctor Lin Chen personally stepped in, no one could make Lu Chenzhou regain his senses!

As for whether he was too heavy-handed? The other party had used guns; how could this level of injury be called heavy? Fang Ming was already very merciful by not killing anyone.

Having dealt with Lu Chenzhou, Fang Ming’s days followed were very comfortable. Every day was spent either studying or going on dates with girls.

His stocks rose every day. When Friday neared 3:00 PM, he sold all his stocks, and his liquid capital reached 150 million.

It was a bit more than he had anticipated.

【Qianqian Little Princess】: ”Hahaha, Fang Ming, you’re really too amazing. You made me two million in five days.”

【Ming】: ”How are you going to thank me?”

【Qianqian Little Princess】: ”How do you want me to thank you?? Let you put it on my face?? (Questioning jpg)”

【Ming】: ”...”

【Qiao Xingyue】: ”I’m with my friend, and we made 600,000 in five days. Thank you, darling. I’ll treat you to dinner tonight. What do you want to eat? (Blushing jpg)”

Well, the life of a rich person is just that simple and unadorned.

At the end of September, Fang Ming prepared to take advantage of the National Day holiday to go to Yanjing again.

The last time he went to Yanjing was to save Ye Nuannuan; this time, it was to solve the lingering threat of the Lu family. Although the goals were different, both required an excuse.

Chu Yao’s National Day break and taking her out for a trip was the excuse he had prepared.

On the night they landed, Fang Ming changed into the image of a foreign CEO and arrived outside the Lu family’s villa estate.

Originally, he wanted to use negotiating cooperation as an excuse to see how Lu Zhengnan planned to retaliate against him. However, he learned from Wu Mingyuan that Lu Zhengnan had suffered a sudden myocardial infarction and was hospitalized a while ago, and he still hasn’t woken up.

In other words, in the current Lu Group, the elder is in the hospital and the younger has become an idiot; the entire Lu Group is leaderless.

It’s just that the Lu family has suppressed the news, so the outside world doesn’t know.

”Evil deeds bring their own punishment,” Fang Ming murmured to himself.

With the Lu family in this state, there was no longer any need for him to deal with them. The internal shareholders and those competitors alone would be enough to tear the Lu family to pieces.

In the early hours of October 1st, Fang Ming finished a vigorous battle with Chu Yao. Feeling completely relaxed, he lay on the hotel bed and opened the Chat Group.

The monthly search arrived as scheduled.

”Start search!”

[Searching for high-potential members across the myriad realms...]

[Searching...]

[Search successful!]
