Chapter 40 The Clown
The factory in the northern suburbs has been abandoned for a long time. It is overgrown with weeds and drafty. When you come to this ghostly place at night, there is a chill in the air.
Rumor has it that the factory was abandoned because of a mass death incident that occurred there, but Lin Yuan doesn't know the specific reason.
It is said that several hundred people died at that time.
As soon as Gu Qingyi got out of the car, she felt a chill and unconsciously moved closer to Lin Yuan.
Are you cold?
Seeing this, Lin Yuan didn't hesitate and took off his coat, draping it over Gu Qingyi's shoulders.
Feeling a touch of warmth, Gu Qingyi glanced at Lin Yuan again and said.
"Thank you."
"You are welcome."
Led by the thugs, they arrived at a factory that was completely empty. The factory was abandoned, and all the equipment inside had naturally been moved away.
In the center of the factory, a black sedan was parked.
Upon seeing this, the thug shouted.
"Young Master Lin, I've brought the person you requested."
The car door opened, and a young man in a suit and sunglasses stepped out.
Wearing sunglasses late at night seems to serve no purpose other than showing off; surely he can't be blind?
Lin Yuan curled his lip. If he were such a pretentious person, he might as well be dead. What kind of trash is this? How dare someone like this impersonate him? It's an insult to his name.
"You're not Lin Yuan. Who are you? Why did you send people to kidnap me?"
Gu Qingyi took a step forward and asked directly.
"How do you know I'm not Lin Yuan? Oh, right, that simp Lin Yuan has been licking President Gu's boots for three years and still hasn't managed to win him over. Of course, President Gu is extremely familiar with Lin Yuan."
The young man clicked his tongue twice and took off his sunglasses.
Through the moonlight, she could vaguely make out the other person's face. Gu Qingyi squinted her eyes; she had already recognized the young man in front of her.
Chen Xingyu is the grandson of Chen Zhibao.
"Chen Xingyu, what do you want to do?"
Chen Xingyu also works at Tengyuan Group, but his position is not high. He only has his current status because his grandfather is a director of the company.
To Gu Qingyi, this guy was a parasite in the company. He had no ability, no achievements, frequently harassed female colleagues, and was a master at taking kickbacks.
He was on the list of company moles that the system had previously rewarded. Gu Qingyi had been trying to find ways to get rid of the company's parasites, but Chen Zhibao, as a company director, had been deliberately putting pressure on her, preventing her from doing so.
"What do I want to do? Gu Qingyi, you know I've liked you for a long time, and I've even confessed to you, but you rejected me every time. I didn't care about that."
"Because in my eyes, you are unattainable, the same to everyone. But, but, what I can't accept is that you actually accepted Lin Yuan's confession."
"Lin Yuan, haha, what's so good about him? Everyone in Beicheng knows his bad reputation. Gu Qingyi, you're really despicable for accepting Lin Yuan's confession. You disgust me now."
Chen Xingyu continued talking to himself, completely unaware that there was a person standing in the crowd, the one he was talking about, Lin Yuan.
"This is the payment we promised you, not a penny less. Take your men and get out of here right now."
"Yes Yes Yes."
The leader of the thugs immediately took the money, then turned around and quickly left with his men. He now knew perfectly well that he had been tricked.
The person in front of me is not Lin Yuan, the notorious scoundrel from Beicheng, but as long as I can get the money, it doesn't matter.
As they were taking the money, the leader of the thugs glanced at Lin Yuan. Seeing Lin Yuan nod, they accepted the money and quickly left with their men.
"Kid, your boss has already left, what are you still doing here? Are you deaf? I told you to get out, didn't you hear me?"
Lin Yuan picked at his ear, took a few steps forward to get closer to Chen Xingyu, and then said calmly.
"Chen Xingyu, open your dog eyes and take a good look at who I am."
Chen Xingyu frowned. "Isn't he just a small-time hoodlum? Who else could he be?"
But when he got closer, he realized that the person in front of him was Lin Yuan. He was startled and quickly took a few steps back before he calmed down again.
"Lin Yuan, Gu Qingyi, I never expected you two to be together! You two are such a pair of adulterers! Could it be that you two have already..."
Before he could finish speaking, a loud slap echoed throughout the abandoned factory.
"Chen Xingyu, I advise you to watch your mouth and speak properly to avoid suffering physical pain."
"Tell me, what did you want to do by having Gu Qingyi kidnapped?"
Lin Yuan asked calmly.
"You think I'd tell you?"
"You don't want to talk about it? Fine, then I'll say it for you. Your thoughts are crystal clear. Do you really think others can't see through them?"
Lin Yuan looked at Chen Xingyu and sighed inwardly at the man's foolishness.
"You are pursuing Gu Qingyi not because you like her, but because of your grandfather's orders. As long as you win over Gu Qingyi and successfully marry her, Tengyuan Group will become your Chen family's."
"Of course, you also have designs on Gu Qingyi's beauty."
"And now you've hired someone to kidnap Gu Qingyi. I think it's because you heard that Gu Qingyi accepted my confession, so you couldn't hold back and wanted to force it. Once the deed is done, the outcome will be decided."
"right?"
Lin Yuan preached.
As mentioned earlier in the original novel, Chen Zhibao's plan was to have his grandson, Chen Xingyu, marry Gu Qingyi, and then take control of the entire Tengyuan Group.
So Chen Zhibao arranged for his grandson to work at Tengyuan Group to create opportunities for Chen Xingyu and Gu Qingyi to spend time alone. Unfortunately, his grandson was not up to the task and failed to win over Gu Qingyi.
The following content is Lin Yuan's speculation based on the current situation.
"you……"
Chen Xingyu was shocked. How could Lin Yuan know his thoughts and plans?
Seeing Chen Xingyu's reaction, Lin Yuan knew that his guess was correct.
He turned around and came to Gu Qingyi's side, then reached out and put his arm around Gu Qingyi's waist.
Lin Yuan's intimate gesture made Gu Qingyi's delicate body tremble, but she did not resist and let Lin Yuan pull her into his arms.
"Chen Xingyu, do you see this? This is the biggest difference between you and me. I can hold Gu Qingyi in my arms and do whatever I want to her, while you can only watch from the sidelines."
Gu Qingyi's cheeks flushed red, and she glared fiercely at Lin Yuan. What nonsense was this guy spouting?
"You two, you despicable couple."
Enraged, Chen Xingyu charged at Lin Yuan, but he couldn't get close at all. Yang Gang intervened and pinned Chen Xingyu to the ground, rendering him unable to move.
"Aren't you envious of me? Don't you want to be me? Because I can hold the woman you like, because I can do whatever I want in Beicheng."
"Chen Xingyu, did you feel good using my name? In that moment, did you fantasize about becoming me?"
Lin Yuan looked at Chen Xingyu, who was lying on the ground like a maggot, and felt disgusted by the guy.
"Shut up, shut up..."
Chen Xingyu was furious. Now it was as if he were deaf and couldn't hear what Lin Yuan was saying. How wonderful that would be!
"What a pathetic clown."
Looking at Chen Xingyu, Lin Yuan had absolutely no interest in him, shook his head, and said.
"let's go."
"Wait a moment."
Gu Qingyi looked at Chen Xingyu and said calmly.
"Chen Xingyu, if you know what's good for you, resign and leave on your own initiative. Don't force me to resort to underhanded tactics."
Leaving behind these words, Gu Qingyi left the abandoned factory with Lin Yuan.
"Lin Yuan, Gu Qingyi!"
Watching the two figures leave, Chen Xingyu clenched his fists and got up from the ground.
"I want you to pay the price."
"You really think so?"
The sudden sound startled Chen Xingyu. He turned around and saw a person standing there quietly, who had appeared at some point.
"I can help you."
Long Haochen smiled slightly and spoke.
