I Became the Henchman of a Novel’s Villain

Chapter 16

"Boss won't be happy if Young Master suffers a loss out here."

This "boss" clearly referred to Li Tai!

Li Yonggang, fully agreeing, patted Bai Zhou on the shoulder and said, "I really don't know where my dad found you from. I'm almost tempted to ask him to transfer you over to my side."

Although Bai Zhou was technically under Li Yonggang's "jurisdiction" at the moment, his true superior was still Li Tai! At any moment, a call from Li Tai would mean Bai Zhou had to drop everything to attend to his business.

Bai Zhou, keeping up appearances, responded with a polite remark: "Young Master, you flatter me."

Flatter me, my foot! Why would I abandon the leg of the "Emperor" Li Tai to cling to your little branch? Who knows when you might throw me under the bus to take the blame! What a joke! There's no way I'm switching camps!

As for Chen Su ahead of them, she had no idea what they were discussing.

Soon, the elevator arrived on the 25th floor. Stepping out, Chen Su led them toward Mu Qingqing's office.

As they passed, many employees stared in surprise. They all recognized Li Yonggang-he had caused enough trouble at Mu Hai Group in the past.

But something was different today. That plaid suit of his was ... just too comical! And holding a bouquet of flowers?

Was this a joke? And who's that handsome auv behind him?

Of course, it was Bai Zhou's first time at Mu Hai Group. But he already knew it inside and out, having memorized every plot point from the original novel.

Mu Qingqing's father, Mu Hai, had been in poor health for a long time, and his days were numbered. Many of the company's board members were eyeing the chairman position. If Mu Qingqing weren't a woman, they wouldn't have such ambitions!

Especially the second-largest shareholder, Mu Qingqing's uncle, Mu Feng! On the surface, he doted on his niece, showing great care when Mu Hai was around.

Mu Qingqing once believed that Mu Feng was one of her strongest supporters. But after Mu Hai passed away, Mu Feng showed his true colors.

He consolidated his power and started to suppress Mu Qingqing, aiming to take over the chairman position-he even collaborated with Li Yonggang for resources. However, thanks to the original protagonist Chu Yun, his plot was eventually foiled.

It was during this time that Mu Qingqing started opening her heart to Chu Yun.

But... Bai Zhou didn't care how the original plot unfolded! He was only interested in enjoying the feeling of bullying others through borrowed power!

They arrived at an elegant office door with the words "General Manager" displayed on it.

Chen Su knocked on the door.

Mu Qingqing's pleasant voice came from within: "Come in!"

Chen Su opened the door, allowing Li Yonggang and Bai Zhou to enter. Sitting behind the desk, Mu Qingqing looked up. Her eyes immediately showed a trace of disgust upon seeing Li Yonggang. But then she noticed Bai Zhou. Her gaze flickered for a moment, then she lowered her head, her expression unreadable.

Li Yonggang, always impatient, spoke as soon as he entered: “Qingqing, I admit the fault was mine before. I've realized my mistake, and I'm here today specifically to apologize. I hope you'll accept this bouquet of flowers."

Gasp-

Chen Su, standing beside them, couldn't help but gasp audibly. She stared in disbelief at the scene before her.

"Is this ... is this really Li Yonggang?"

It wasn't just Chen Su-Mu Qingqing was also stunned by what was happening. Didn't she know Li Yonggang well enough? The horrendous things he had done made her shudder! She was so scared that she didn't even dare to find someone to pretend to be her boyfriend, afraid that Li Yonggang would harm him, which would ultimately come back to her.

The kind-hearted Mu Qingqing could never bring herself to do such a thing.

But today? Li Yonggang? Buying me flowers? Apologizing to me?! "Did I time-travel?"

Mu Qingqing even briefly entertained the thought.

But soon, she noticed that someone behind Li Yonggang was trying hard to suppress a laugh.

Mu Qingqing's eyes flickered: "So, it's because of him after all!"
