The male protagonist of a sweet romance novel went on a killing spree in the world of angst novels.

Chapter 104 The One Who Is Unloved Is the One Who Comes Later

After visiting the marine zoo, the second stop was the amusement park.

After lunch, the two set off for the amusement park.

The journey took only half an hour to reach the destination.

The amusement park was just completed last year and opened for business a few months ago.

However, because the land was in a good location, the daily visitor flow was quite good.

It is one of the must-visit amusement parks for couples coming to Yancheng.

Yan Ting stared blankly at the amusement park in front of her.

Suddenly, the image of Yan Nan bringing her to the amusement park flashed into her mind.

Because so much time has passed, I can't quite remember the specific details of that day.

All I know is that it was her first time going to an amusement park.

Yanting once truly regarded Yannan as her guardian angel.

It's a pity that things are unpredictable.

Chen Xiao bought the ticket and noticed the girl staring intently at a certain spot. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you looking at a handsome guy? You seem quite absorbed."

Yanting came to her senses and said, "No."

"You've been spacing out all this time." Chen Xiao gently tapped the little girl's head. "The tickets are bought, let's go in!"

Looking at the tall, straight figure walking ahead, Yan Ting instantly cleared her mind of the jumbled thoughts and followed.

Upon entering the amusement park, a variety of colorful facilities come into view, and cheerful music and the laughter of visitors intertwine.

Chen Xiao led Yan Ting to the carousel. The colorful horses rose and fell, creating a fairytale-like atmosphere. Yan Ting sat on the carousel, a gentle breeze ruffling her hair, and a long-lost innocent smile appeared on her face. Chen Xiao looked at her, a strange feeling stirring in his heart.

Then they headed towards the roller coaster. While waiting in line, Yanting noticed a brother and sister next to her being very close, and couldn't help but think of Yannan. But this time she quickly composed herself and turned to look at Chen Xiao.

As the roller coaster roared past, Yan Ting screamed loudly, all her worries seemingly forgotten with each scream. After getting off, her legs were still a little weak, and Chen Xiao naturally supported her.

Afterwards, they arrived at the Ferris wheel. As the Ferris wheel slowly rose, Yanting looked down upon the beautiful scenery of the entire amusement park, her heart filled with warmth. At that moment, she felt new beauty slowly filling the void of past pain, and the man beside her was gradually becoming a bright spot in her life.

"Ah Xiao," Yan Ting looked at the person in front of her, "close your eyes."

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows, didn't ask why, and slowly closed his eyes.

after awhile.

Chen Xiao felt a slight coolness on his neck. He subconsciously opened his eyes and saw a snake bone necklace around his neck.

It’s time to say it or not.

This snake bone necklace matches his outfit perfectly for today's date.

Just as Yan Ting put the necklace on Chen Xiao, she was pulled into his arms.

Chen Xiao wrapped his arms around her slender waist and kissed her: "When did you buy it?"

Yanting blushed from the kiss, and pushed against his chest. "I bought this a few days ago. Do you like it?"

Chen Xiao didn't answer whether he liked her or not, but instead answered her directly with a passionate and lingering kiss.

In the end, Yan Ting was carried off the Ferris wheel by Chen Xiao.

The sky gradually darkened.

The time came to half past eight.

Yan Ting followed Chen Xiao into the movie theater.

The two were watching a horror movie.

As the movie begins, an eerie and terrifying atmosphere gradually spreads.

Yan Ting: "..."

This movie was recommended to her by Tan Yi.

I thought it was a romance movie, but it turned out to be a horror movie.

The occasional appearance of a funny face in the storyline elicited quiet screams from several girls.

Some of them snuggled in their boyfriends' arms.

For example, the couple sitting in front of them.

Girl: "Waaah, I'm so scared."

Boy: "Don't be afraid, darling, I'm here to protect you."

Yan Ting: "..."

Girl: "You're so nice."

Boy: "For you, I'm willing to become Ultraman."

The girl was so moved that she threw herself into the boy's arms.

Yanting was successfully amused.

Watching movies wasn't as interesting as watching those two.

The movie is one and a half hours long.

The plot is told in a confusing and somewhat incomprehensible way.

The atmosphere of horror was created quite well.

It was past ten o'clock when we came out of the movie.

Chen Xiao drove his Bugatti and took Yan Ting to a fish hot pot restaurant for a meal.

-

In a private room on the second floor.

Lu Huai got completely drunk.

He stared at the fish in the hot pot, looking somewhat lost.

Sheng Yuanze, as if watching a joke, asked, "Didn't you go on a blind date with Miss Yu a couple of days ago? How did it go?"

Lu Huai didn't reply, and continued to pour himself more wine.

It has to be said that this is the first time I've ever seen Lu Huaisheng Yuanze in such a sorry state.

As a brother, he naturally wanted to comfort him, but unfortunately, Sheng Yuanze has never been a compassionate person.

He smoked a cigarette and asked with a half-smile, "What do you think if I went after her?"

Lu Huai paused, then lifted his eyelids, his eyes deep and unfathomable: "You can give it a try."

Sheng Yuanze raised an eyebrow and asked, "Didn't you say that before?"

"Weren't you planning to give her to me after you got tired of her?"

bang——

The wine bottle was slammed heavily onto the table.

Lu Huai curled his lips and said coldly, "I've changed my mind."

"If you dare to lay a finger on her, I won't show you any brotherhood."

Moreover, the two of them didn't have much of a brotherly bond to begin with.

There are only interests.

Although Sheng Yuanze was a womanizer, he was no less capable than Lu Huai in business, and sometimes he was even better than Lu Huai.

Anyone who knows Lu Huai knows how arrogant he is.

The only person he could truly place on the same level as his brothers was Sheng Yuanze.

As for Yan Xun, he never really took him seriously.

Sheng Yuanze was not surprised by Lu Huai's stress response. He smiled casually and said, "Just kidding, you actually took it seriously."

"You know better than I whether it's a joke or not." Just as Sheng Yuanze knew his personality, he also understood the hidden nature of Sheng Yuanze.

Sheng Yuanze has a strong obsession with beautiful things.

Putting aside everything else, the women he secretly kept were all outstanding beauties in terms of appearance, figure, and temperament.

Sheng Yuanze is a picky eater; pretty girls generally don't catch his eye.

Moreover, he had actually been eyeing Yanting for a long time.

Yan Ting's facial features were perfectly proportioned; any more would make him appear dull, and any less would make him appear plain.

A touch of glamour amidst a cool and aloof demeanor.

It perfectly matches Sheng Yuanze's aesthetic.

Unfortunately, with Lu Huai intervening at the time, Sheng Yuanze didn't do anything.

Otherwise, given his personality, Yanting would have become his prey long ago.

“Lu Huai, this doesn’t seem like you.” Sheng Yuanze’s peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly. “Don’t tell me you’ve really fallen for Yan Ting.”

Lu Huai had a high alcohol tolerance, and even now his mind was still somewhat clear.

"Like it?" he murmured in a low, husky voice, "I do like it a little."

But not much.

Now that things have come to this, Lu Huai finally understands his own thoughts.

Yanting was ingrained in his bones and could not be removed.

Four years is not a long time, but after Yanting left, all those little moments were so unforgettable.

Sheng Yuanze said matter-of-factly, "Then we can just snatch them back."

Lu Huai shook his head. "That Chen Xiao's identity is not simple."

Sheng Yuanze said thoughtfully, "Is it that CEO/Executive President of Xingyao?"

“It’s him.” Lu Huai squinted. “This man has too many secrets.”

Sheng Yuanze: "Have someone investigate."

"We can't find anything." Lu Huai stared at the bubbling fish soup in the hot pot and said calmly, "We can only find out that he has connections with Jingzhou."

"Jingzhou?" Sheng Yuanze was somewhat surprised: "That's interesting."

As he spoke, he raised his glass to toast Lu Huai. Just as he was about to say something, he glanced down out of the corner of his eye and suddenly saw two familiar people coming in from the first floor.

It was Yan Ting and Chen Xiao.

-

Yan Ting and Chen Xiao chose a private room and sat down.

Yan Ting likes to eat fish, a fact that none of the Yan family members know.

But Chen Xiao knew.

So he drove her to this fish hot pot restaurant to try it out.

Soon after, the hot pot was served to the table by the waiter.

The pot was piping hot, and the broth was bubbling and sizzling.

Chen Xiao placed a piece of fish on Yan Ting's plate, saying, "This fish has no bones, try it."

After taking a bite, Yan Ting's eyes lit up, and he said, "The taste is indeed very fresh."

Just then, a familiar voice rang out.

“Tingting”.

Yan Ting looked up and saw Lu Huai standing not far away, staring at her.

Yan Ting frowned unconsciously.

What bad luck.

You can run into him even when you're eating here.

“Miss Yan.” Yan Ting looked away and then saw Sheng Yuanze coming down the stairs.

He said in a flippant manner, "Meeting is fate, why don't we eat together?"

well.

Another stroke of bad luck.

Chen Xiao picked up another piece of fish with his chopsticks and placed it on the plate in front of Yan Ting. Then he said in a casual tone, "If you can't afford to eat, go beg for food instead of begging here."

"And another thing," he glanced at Lu Huai, somewhat displeased, "You dare call me Tingting?"

Lu Huai said coldly, "My mouth is my own, it's none of your business."

Yan Ting suddenly spoke up: "Then can I take charge?"

Lu Huai was taken aback.

Yan Ting stared at him: "I hope Mr. Lu has some sense of boundaries and just calls me Miss Yan. We're not close enough to use such a nickname."

Sheng Yuanze sighed, "What a heartless woman."

Yan Ting glanced at Sheng Yuanze, remaining noncommittal.

Chen Xiao, however, said lazily, "Is it okay to think about my girlfriend in front of me?"

The word "girlfriend" sounded extremely harsh to Lu Huai.

He stared coldly at Chen Xiao: "You're the one who came later; she's my fiancée."

As long as he doesn't agree to call off the engagement, Yanting will always be his fiancée.

Sheng Yuanze watched the show from the sidelines.

Chen Xiao scoffed: "Those who are not loved are the ones who come later."

Yan Ting spoke up at the right moment: "President Lu is too confident in himself. My boyfriend is Chen Xiao, and the person I like is also Chen Xiao."

Lu Huai's eyes flickered. He was probably drunk. Suddenly, his brain went blank and he said, "I can give you a portion of the shares in the Lu Group."

"So could you give me another chance?"

As soon as these words came out.

There was silence.

Sheng Yuanze looked surprised.

Unexpectedly, Lu Huai, who has always prioritized profit, was willing to give up a portion of the group's shares to Yan Ting.

It seems we've really lost.

After pausing for two seconds, Yan Ting said calmly, "No need. My boyfriend has plenty of money."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao smiled, every strand of his hair radiating pleasure: "I may not have much else, but I have plenty of money."

"..."

As the last vestige of clarity faded from Lu Huai's mind, he clenched his fist and swung it at Chen Xiao.

There was a bang.

The things on the table were scattered and in a mess.

Chen Xiao tilted his head and easily grabbed the other person's fist, and the two of them instantly started fighting.

"Ah Xiao—" Yan Ting immediately wanted to rush up to help Chen Xiao, but Sheng Yuanze blocked her way.

"Go away."

Sheng Yuanze chuckled, "Miss Yan, it's best to let men handle men's affairs. Don't let them hurt you in the end." He looked so considerate and loving, which might have made any other woman fall for him.

But Yanting just found him annoying.

Clenching his fists, he rushed forward and pushed Sheng Yuanze aside.

Sheng Yuanze initially thought she was just a young girl and not worth taking seriously.

But to their surprise, Yan Ting's strength was ridiculously great.

It was big enough to knock a grown man to the ground.

After pushing Sheng Yuanze away, Yan Ting hurriedly looked at Chen Xiao and the others.

Chen Xiao seemed to handle Lu Huai's attacks with ease. Taking advantage of an opening, he grabbed the other's wrist bone, crushed the bone, and kicked him in the abdomen.

Lu Huai let out a muffled groan, his face turning deathly pale, and cold sweat poured uncontrollably from his forehead.

"Ah Xiao." Yan Ting rushed to Chen Xiao's side, checking him over carefully, afraid that he might be injured somewhere.

Chen Xiao shook his wrist and said to Yan Ting, "It's nothing."

Lu Huai squinted as he watched Yan Ting look at Chen Xiao with a worried expression. The tightness in his chest grew even more unbearable. He said in a hoarse voice, "Tingting."

"Don't call me Tingting." Yan Ting was no longer calm as she looked at him with disgust. "Are you being a masochist? Or do you not understand human language? I told you, I don't like you, so why are you still coming at me? I don't want to hold a grudge against you for what happened before, but if Chen Xiao had gotten into trouble just now, I wouldn't have let you off the hook, Lu Huai." She emphasized the name Lu Huai, which showed how much Yan Ting protected Chen Xiao.

"..." Lu Huai ignored the pain of his bones being shattered. He stared at Yan Ting as if he had lost his voice, unable to speak for a long time.

After this commotion, Yan Ting lost her appetite and grabbed Chen Xiao's wrist, heading straight for the door. As they reached the door, she suddenly stopped and said, "Do you know why I don't care about your shares?"

Lu Huai stared at Yan Ting's retreating figure, still without replying.

Yan Ting didn't care. She said as if she was deliberately stabbing the other person in the heart, "Because I find it dirty."

After saying that, she pulled Chen Xiao away from the private room.

Lu Huai lay on the cold floor, staring silently at the chandelier on the ceiling. Recalling Yan Ting's gentle and caring manner towards Chen Xiao, his eyes stung slightly, and his heart was filled with nothing but grief and jealousy.

Yes, I envy Chen Xiao, and I also envy my past self.

Why didn't he cherish the tender care Yanting showed him?

Sheng Yuanze, who had just gotten up, hissed, "What did that woman eat to grow up like that? She's so strong." He could tell his abdomen was bruised without even looking.

He then looked at Lu Huai on the ground. Seeing the man's disheveled appearance, he felt a little disgusted. He originally didn't want to bother with this guy, but the Sheng family and the Lu family still had a business relationship.

Thinking of this, Sheng Yuanze sneered, "We really owe the Lu family something."

After making a phone call to Lu Huai's assistant, he pushed open the door to the private room and left.
