"By the way, Madam, you don't need to worry about anything after you go back. Young Master will handle that man's matter."
No one will know.
Young Master must have arrived at his destination by now.
"Splash!" A basin of cold water was poured directly over the middle-aged man's head, soaking the cotton cloth that had just been wrapped around his head.
The man has been tormented all night since he was brought to this dark room last night.
The group didn't physically assault him; they even called a doctor to treat his head injury. However, the mental anguish was unbearable.
Just when he starts to feel sleepy, a bucket of cold water is poured over his head, so you can't rest for even a minute. The man is now somewhat out of it.
Just then, the door to the small dark room opened, and the man, sensing someone enter, sat down opposite him.
"How was your stay last night?" Lu Shen asked lazily.
"Who are you, and why did you bring me here?"
"Do you want money? I can give you as much as you want, as long as you let me go."
Lu Shen felt like he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Someone actually dared to talk about money in front of him; they really have guts.
"I, Lu Shen, have never lacked money."
Upon hearing Lu Shen's name, the middle-aged man finally felt fear.
"You, you are Lu Shen." He never expected that he would be captured by Lu Shen.
Logically speaking, someone of his level shouldn't have come into contact with Lu Shen. Thinking about the business he's handled, there haven't been any conflicts with the Lu family.
The man's attitude instantly became respectful and humble. "Young Master Lu, I don't know what I did to offend you. If I have, I will apologize immediately. Please forgive me, I am a magnanimous person."
As soon as Lu Shen glanced at the bodyguard behind him, another bucket of water was poured over the man's head.
"Since you're so forgetful, I don't mind giving you a heads-up."
"Think carefully about what you did at the banquet last night."
"I'll give you ten seconds."
As he spoke, Lu Shen took out the pistol he carried for self-defense from his pocket and pointed it directly at the man's forehead.
The man was so frightened that his legs were trembling uncontrollably. If it were someone else, he could have used money to buy his way out.
But this young master Lu is someone who won't listen to reason; no amount of money can buy his peace of mind.
He immediately heard the sound of the trigger being pulled.
"Ten." Lu Shen began to count down.
"Young Master Lu, I didn't do anything yesterday."
"eight."
The middle-aged man's explanation wasted two seconds.
"Han Mingyi asked me to go. I thought she was going to agree to my request."
"five."
Lu Shen had run out of patience. Dealing with individuals was not a difficult task for him; it all depended on whether he was willing to or not.
With less than five seconds left, the man quickly racked his brains to think of anything he might have forgotten.
Yesterday, Han Mingyi was supposed to come into the lounge, but instead, a woman he didn't recognize came.
But at the time, I was burning with lust, so I thought I'd take care of her first and then settle accounts with Han Mingyi.
That woman?
"three!"
A sudden inspiration struck the man, and he immediately realized the crucial point, quickly apologizing to Lu Shen.
"Young Master Lu, I was out of my mind. I shouldn't have forced myself on that woman. But don't worry, I didn't even touch a single hair on her head."
Sure enough, Lu Shen's countdown stopped.
It seems I made the right bet.
"It seems the reaction was quite timely," Lu Shen said, his tone still tinged with regret.
It's as if he's hoping the man won't say it, so he can find an excuse to deal with him directly.
"You should be glad you didn't run into my woman, otherwise, the suffering you're going through now would be much more than just being doused with cold water."
The middle-aged man was shocked. That was actually Young Master Lu's woman. He was filled with regret.
If he had known earlier that she was Young Master Lu's woman, he would have kept a distance of three meters and wouldn't have dared to look at her for long.
He actually dared to have lustful thoughts yesterday; he's really courting death.
As soon as Lu Shen finished speaking, the bodyguard, as if responding to his words, poured another bucket of water over the middle-aged man's head.
Now the man didn't feel the cold water being poured on him at all. As long as he could save his life and appease Young Master Lu, he would be willing to be doused with cold water even if it was seven or eight more times.
"Young Master Lu, I really didn't know. Please forgive me this time. I promise that I will stay far away from the young mistress in the future and never let her see my face."
Lu Shen put away his pistol and lazily fiddled with it.
"Hmm, anything else?" Lu Shen had never really intended to kill him.
Although killing him would indeed reduce his anger, he was worried that it would affect Ruoxi, so he came up with the idea of threatening and intimidating her.
"Anything else?" The man was somewhat stunned. Even this wasn't enough? What exactly did Young Master Lu want him to do?
Seeing that the man was slow-witted, Lu Shen didn't mind giving him a reminder.
"To be honest, I did consider killing you outright. I think only a dead man's mouth is the most reliable. What do you think?"
The man instantly understood the meaning behind Lu Shen's words.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I'm more reliable than a dead man. I'll keep what happened last night to myself and won't say a word about it."
The man was slightly startled. It was clear how much that woman was valued by Young Master Lu, that he had thought of so much for her.
Satisfied with the answer he wanted, Lu Shen gestured to the bodyguards behind him to put the man down.
"Oh right, I seem to remember you proposed to Han Mingyi in the live stream before?"
The man was now like a frightened bird, easily startled by whatever Lu Shen said.
"Yes, could it be that Han Mingyi is also Young Master Lu's lover?"
If that's really the case, then he wouldn't dare to accept Han Mingyi.
Lu Shen curled his lip in disdain, "Don't compare me to you. Only you would be interested in a woman like that."
"Let me remind you, my woman was deliberately lured there by Han Mingyi. You should know what to do next." Lu Shen left the small dark room with a group of bodyguards.
Combining Lu Shen's words with the events of the previous night, the man finally understood Han Mingyi's true purpose.
"Wow, Han Mingyi, you actually came up with such a dirty trick to get rid of me!"
He wholeheartedly wanted to give Han Mingyi a good life, but in the end, he was schemed against by her.
If things go well, Lu Shao's woman will lose her innocence, and he himself will be thrust into the spotlight, so naturally he won't have the energy to continue entangled with her.
If I fail and am discovered by Young Master Lu's men, Young Master Lu will definitely not let me off the hook.
Then she won't have to face her harassment anymore.
"If you don't want to marry me, then I'll make sure you never get rid of me again."
