I Became the Henchman of a Novel’s Villain

Chapter 12: Has Li Yonggang Changed?

Just yesterday, Bai Zhou had let Li Yonggang’s beloved woman, whom he had painstakingly kidnapped, go free. Li Yonggang had even pointed a gun at Bai Zhou’s head, threatening to kill him!

Who could have predicted that after just one night, Li Yonggang would now insist on waiting for Bai Zhou to arrive before going to apologize?

Faced with such a drastic change, the group of underlings behind Li Yonggang were utterly confused. But they didn’t dare ask any questions!

Even if they wanted to, who would they ask? Li Yonggang? Their young master? No way! Ask Bai Zhou? Bai Zhou held the “imperial sword” from Li Tai, a symbol of power! He was their boss’s father’s trusted man—asking him was out of the question!

This time, Li Yonggang wasn’t alone. He had brought over a dozen underlings with him.

Normally, when Li Yonggang went out, this was his usual entourage. The group swaggered out of the public parking lot. The parking lot security guard, seeing so many men in black suits, didn’t dare breathe too loudly.

He hid inside his security booth, not daring to poke his head out, silently muttering to himself: “You can’t see me! You can’t see me! You can’t see me!”

If it were just ordinary people in suits, that would be one thing.

But who were these people? Simply put, they were bad guys! Wearing black suits, they practically had “I’m a bad guy” written across their faces.

Looking at Li Yonggang’s bold demeanor, Bai Zhou couldn’t help but sigh and said: “Young Master, are you really going to apologize to Mu Qingqing like this?”

“Hm?” Li Yonggang turned to look at the group behind him, puzzled.

He even asked in response: “What’s wrong with it?”

Bai Zhou rolled his eyes and said: “Those who know you’re here to apologize understand that, but those who don’t will think you’re here to start a fight!”

“Ohhh.”

Hearing Bai Zhou’s words, Li Yonggang’s eyes lit up with sudden realization.

He nodded in agreement, then turned to his underlings and said: “When we enter Mu Hai Group, all of you stay outside. Got it?”

“Yes, Young Master!!”

The group answered in unison, their collective voice drawing the attention of passersby. Even the security guard at Mu Hai Group’s entrance noticed.

When the guard saw Li Yonggang, dressed in a sharp suit and holding flowers, he immediately panicked.

He grabbed his walkie-talkie and frantically called out: “Captain! Captain Chu! We’ve got trouble!!”

On the other end of the walkie-talkie came the magnetic voice of the original protagonist, Chu Yun: “What’s wrong? Don’t panic! Have you forgotten how I trained you?”

Indeed. The first thing Chu Yun did after becoming the head of security at Mu Hai Group was train all the security guards! His methods, honed in the deep mountains, had made the guards suffer greatly.

Many had resisted him at first. But after countless face-offs and displays of Chu Yun’s martial prowess, they were all thoroughly convinced. They had nearly become Chu Yun’s loyal followers.

This was a common trope in the original novel.

But faced with this current situation, the guard had no choice but to report it!

“Captain Chu! It’s not just anyone—it’s Li Yonggang! He’s brought over a dozen men to our Mu Hai Group!”

“What?!” In the surveillance room, Chu Yun had been admiring the office women in their professional attire.

He immediately jumped up from his chair: “They dare come to Mu Hai Group to cause trouble? Stay there, I’ll be right over!”

With that, he threw down the walkie-talkie and ran out of the surveillance room.

However, by that time, Li Yonggang and his group had already reached the entrance of Mu Hai Group. Their intimidating presence made the employees passing by instinctively avoid them. Some even rushed inside, likely to report the situation to someone.

At this moment, the security guard who had just called Chu Yun mustered his courage and stepped forward to block their way: “Young Master Li, you … you can’t go in!”

“Hm? What?! You fa—”

Given Li Yonggang’s temperament, how could a lowly security guard dare to stop him?

Was he tired of living? With just a wave of his hand, his underlings could beat this guard to the point where even his mother wouldn’t recognize him.

The underlings behind Li Yonggang all took a step forward, seemingly awaiting his command.

But at that moment, Bai Zhou cleared his throat and softly coughed:

“Cough, cough …”

That single cough immediately interrupted Li Yonggang’s angry outburst.

He turned to look at Bai Zhou, took a deep breath, and addressed the security guard: “Don’t worry, I’m not here to cause trouble. I just need to see your Mu Qingqing—President Mu.”

“Gasp—!!”

The security guard audibly sucked in a breath of air and instantly focused his gaze on Bai Zhou. He had fully expected to either get cursed out by Li Yonggang or be beaten up by his men.

After all, this was just how Li Yonggang operated!

How many times had he been punished for blocking Li Yonggang before? After that, every time he saw Li Yonggang, he avoided him like the plague.

It wasn’t until after Chu Yun’s training that he regained the confidence to stand up to Li Yonggang.

But now … Li Yonggang had been following the script perfectly, so why did one cough from the man behind him suddenly change everything?

“My god!” The security guard’s mind raced with shock: “Who on earth is this young man?! He can make the most notorious second-generation heir of the Magic City behave so obediently!”
