Chapter 202? (ˉ﹃ˉ?)
A few minutes earlier, while she was still in her office, Wen Zhen outside suddenly received a phone call. A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the line, carrying a hint of obsequiousness.
"Boss, I've seen Bai Xiaohua's videos, and they're really well-made!" The middle-aged man's voice was full of excitement. "It's just that the school's budget is a bit tight right now. Do you think it's possible to edit those videos a bit, add some mosaics, and then sell them on the market? This way, we can not only alleviate the financial pressure but also earn some extra money. As for the profit, how about I do 30% and you do 70%?"
Wen Zhen's smile widened. He chuckled and replied, "Well, you can decide how to handle it yourself. But I won't accept the money. You can keep it; consider it my contribution to education."
Wen Zhen's gaze fell on Bai Xiaohua: "From now on, Boss Wang will also be one of your masters! His company is quite lucrative, so you must serve him well."
Bai Xiaohua's face instantly turned ashen, her body trembling slightly. However, faced with Wen Zhen's authority, she dared not resist in the slightest and could only silently lower her head: "Yes, Master."
As Wang Yan watched Bai Xiaohua return to his side, his gaze fell upon the name "Li Yuetian" on the file, and a surge of anger rose within him. A sinister glint flashed in Wang Yan's eyes, and a vicious plan quickly took shape in his mind.
.........
After leaving Li Yuejiao's bar, Li Yuetian felt unusually heavy-hearted. He walked along, constantly lost in thought.
In the end, he decided to go to Lin Yue's place, after all, he still had special feelings for her.
When he arrived at the entrance of Lin Yue's residential compound, he suddenly saw a familiar figure—Wang Hao. Li Yuetian's heart tightened.
Without a second thought, he immediately prepared to follow and find out what was going on. However, in the instant he turned around, he completely failed to notice what was happening behind him.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, and before Li Yuetian could react, he felt a sharp pain in his back. Immediately afterward, he was struck hard with a stick, and his body involuntarily leaned forward.
Before he could recover from the excruciating pain, several figures rushed forward and pinned him down. Li Yuetian struggled fiercely, but his strength was far inferior to theirs, and he was quickly subdued.
These men moved quickly and skillfully. They gagged Li Yuetian with a strip of cloth and then lifted him like a piece of cargo into a car that was already waiting nearby.
Wang Hao heard a noise behind him and turned around in confusion, but saw nothing. He muttered to himself, "Could I have misheard?" After thinking for a moment, he figured it was probably just his imagination and continued walking towards Lin Yue's house.
The car started and sped away. Li Yuetian, bound tightly in the back seat, could only make muffled noises. He was filled with terror and confusion, not knowing who these people were or why they had kidnapped him.
He overheard the person in the car on the phone: "Yes, Mr. Wang, we've succeeded! But we just saw your son... Don't worry, we didn't alert him!"
Wang Yan said menacingly on the other end of the phone, "Very good, take him to the place I specify. As for my son Wang Hao, don't worry about him." After hanging up, a cruel smile crept onto Wang Yan's lips. He was going to torture Li Yuetian to avenge his severed little finger.
He didn't know why Wang Hao would go to find Lin Yue. He had originally planned to kidnap Lin Yue, but after seeing Li Yuetian on the live monitor in the car, he changed his mind.
Wang Hao walked to Lin Yue's door and then raised his hand to knock.
"Dong dong dong..."
Hearing the knocking, Lin Yue felt a surge of annoyance. She slowly walked to the door and opened it.
When she saw that the person standing outside the door was Wang Hao, her brows furrowed instantly.
"What are you doing here?" Lin Yue's voice was icy cold, as if it could freeze a person.
Wang Hao, however, was completely oblivious to Lin Yue's displeasure. He continued to look at Lin Yue with a grin, and then lifted his foot to walk into the house.
However, before he could even step into the house, he suddenly felt a tremendous force coming at him.
"boom!"
Wang Hao was caught off guard and kicked to the ground by Lin Yue, falling flat on his back.
"Are you looking for death?" Lin Yue scoffed. If she hadn't wanted to know something, Wang Hao would already be dead.
Wang Hao got up from the ground, rubbed his buttocks, and looked embarrassed.
"Hey, Lin Yue, don't be so angry. I just came to see you," Wang Hao tried to explain.
"Looking at me? I think you're here to cause trouble!" Lin Yue didn't believe Wang Hao's words at all. She really didn't expect that this guy would dare to show up in front of her after doing such a thing!
Lin Yue lives on the top floor, and she is the only household on that floor, so she is not worried about being disturbed.
Wang Hao looked at Lin Yue and suddenly revealed a sinister smile: "Still pretending to be high and mighty? Let me tell you, I know you've offended someone!" Wang Hao said viciously.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue raised an eyebrow. She had a feeling that Wang Hao was just there to give her away for free. And he might even give her some information along the way. Thinking this way, she wasn't so angry anymore: "Stop talking nonsense! I'm a Kamen Rider, aren't you afraid of going to jail?"
"Hahaha, Kamen Rider, huh! Let me tell you, you've offended the Kamen Rider Association! No matter what I do to you now, you'll have to obey! Nobody can help you!" Wang Hao said smugly.
Upon hearing Wang Hao's words, Lin Yue was shocked. She realized that Wang Hao was acting under someone's orders! However, what she found unbelievable was that the Knights Association was the one instructing Wang Hao!
Lin Yue racked her brains, trying to recall when and where she had offended anyone from the Knights' Association. Besides, her brother worked for the Knights' Association; logically, she shouldn't have any deep-seated grudge against them.
Just as Lin Yue was deep in thought, Wang Hao suddenly reached out without warning, pouncing on her like a hungry tiger. Startled, Lin Yue's hand twitched slightly, and a powerful surge of true energy erupted from her fingertips.
This surge of true energy was like an invisible rope, instantly wrapping around Wang Hao's neck. Wang Hao felt as if his neck was being tightly clamped by an iron clamp, making it difficult to breathe.
"What...what is this?" Wang Hao stared wide-eyed in horror, completely bewildered. He only felt his body slowly float into the air, as if it had lost its weight.
"Hmph!" Lin Yue snorted coldly, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes. "I was just about to go find you, but I didn't expect you to deliver yourself to my door. It saves me a lot of trouble!"
Having said that, Lin Yue manipulated her true energy, binding Wang Hao's entire body tightly as if he were a puppet. Wang Hao felt as if his body was being tightly enveloped by a tremendous force, and no matter how much he struggled, he could not break free from this restraint.
Wang Hao was filled with fear and confusion. He clearly saw that he had nothing on his body, so why was he being controlled by an invisible force? What kind of strange method was this?
Lin Yue grabbed Wang Hao by the neck and dragged him into the house. With a "bang," the door was slammed shut, as if cutting off the outside world.
Lin Yue carelessly tossed Wang Hao onto the cold floor like a rag doll, his body hitting the ground with a dull thud. Wang Hao stared in terror at the cold woman before him, his body trembling uncontrollably. He had never experienced anything like this before, and his heart was filled with fear.
Lin Yue said expressionlessly, "Tell me, who ordered you to do this? Who in the Knights Guild is targeting me?"
Wang Hao was so frightened that his face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he stammered, "Heroine... I... I don't know!"
Seeing this, Lin Yue gently moved her hand, and a subtle stream of true energy gathered at her fingertips, instantly condensing into a sharp energy needle.
"Ah!!!" Wang Hao suddenly let out a shrill scream as the air needle pierced straight into his head like lightning! The intense pain almost made him faint, and he rolled on the ground in agony.
