I Became the Henchman of a Novel’s Villain

Chapter 56 – Brother Zhou, What Are You Doing Here?

“What do you want?!” Zhou Siyun’s voice was noticeably hoarse! Her eyes were slightly red, clearly brimming with tears again. She stared intently at Bai Zhou: “Do you want money? Power? I can give it all to you!!”

At this point, Zhou Siyun seemed to have lost her last lifeline. She didn’t even care that her bathrobe was wide open, as she looked at Bai Zhou, voicing her final question!

Bai Zhou glanced up and down at Zhou Siyun, his gaze lingering on the open part of her robe for a bit longer. Bai Zhou was no gentleman—what’s wrong with looking?

He kept a faint smile on his face and said, “Miss Zhou, am I really that shallow in your eyes?”

Zhou Siyun naturally noticed Bai Zhou’s gaze, and the hatred in her eyes became even more pronounced: “You want me?!! Over my dead body!!”

Her eyes turned even more bloodshot, and her voice grew hoarser! Though Bai Zhou was indeed handsome! But Bai Zhou was only a subordinate of Li Tai—a mere underling! And on top of that, he was a jerk! A scoundrel! A pervert!!

Zhou Siyun decided that even if she had to die, she would never give herself to him!!

However, Bai Zhou suddenly burst into laughter, looking at her with a strange expression as he said, “Seriously, where do you get your confidence from?”

“Wha … what?!” Zhou Siyun was stunned by Bai Zhou’s words.

What did he mean by that?

“Where do I get my confidence from?!”

Your eyes have been glued to my body, and you barged in to watch me bathe. Isn’t it because you’re lusting after my body?! What do you mean by ‘where do I get my confidence from?!’ Wait, does my body not even interest you?!

In that instant, she recalled the scene of Bai Zhou barging in to use the bathroom while she was showering. Bai Zhou had clearly seen her.

But, it was as if it was the most normal thing in the world to him. He used the bathroom without any reaction and then walked out just as casually.

Could it be that, in his eyes, I really am that worthless?!

Two lines of tears slowly flowed from Zhou Siyun’s eyes. Indeed, she was, after all, the daughter of the wealthiest man in Jinling, and universally recognized as the number one beauty in Jinling!

The line of people pursuing her could stretch far beyond sight! She had long grown accustomed to the life of being praised and admired. But now, Bai Zhou had shattered her last emotional defense with just one sentence: “You’re too confident.”

She had no idea how Bai Zhou managed to know everything she had done so clearly. Even her body had been completely seen by Bai Zhou. Yet, in front of Bai Zhou, she felt utterly powerless. It was as if her every thought and action were laid bare before him.

She sat there, hopeless, weeping. Even her bathrobe had slowly slipped off her shoulders, but she didn’t react at all.

Bai Zhou stood up and sighed softly. He took a step forward and reached out his hand toward Zhou Siyun. Zhou Siyun didn’t move at all, showing no sign of avoiding him. However, Bai Zhou wasn’t going to do anything strange.

Though he was a bad guy, it wasn’t like he would jump at every woman he saw, right?

He stretched out his hand and pulled the bathrobe back onto Zhou Siyun. Then, he even placed her handgun back beside her.

Slowly, he said, “Didn’t you ask me what I want? What I want is simple. I just want to quietly follow behind Li Tai, enjoy the power that comes with his protection, and bully a few people here and there. That’s enough for me.”

Bai Zhou said this calmly and gently.

Zhou Siyun’s eyes slowly lit up with a glimmer of hope. She raised her head and looked at Bai Zhou, who was now gently closing her bathrobe for her.

But at that moment, Bai Zhou’s expression changed, and his tone shifted as well, becoming cold: “But! Don’t mess with me! No one can disrupt the life I’m living now!”

The threat in his words was unmistakable!

The meaning was clear: “Since you know about Ye Qiantong’s situation, you’d better keep it to yourself!”

After saying this, Bai Zhou, as if guided by an unseen force, lifted his hand and gently brushed Zhou Siyun’s tear-streaked, beautiful face. Then, without hesitation, he turned and walked away.

“Wait!” Zhou Siyun’s voice called out again.

“Sigh …” Bai Zhou sighed helplessly: “What now?”

Zhou Siyun slowly stood up, tightened her bathrobe, and didn’t even touch the handgun Bai Zhou had returned to her. She looked at his back and asked, “Who exactly are you?”

She finally asked the question!

Who exactly was Bai Zhou?

She had speculated about it before, especially after the whole Ye Qiantong incident! But just now, he had laid out her entire life, every detail, as if he knew it all! No ordinary person—not even Li Tai himself—could have found out so much about her so easily!

Yet this man claimed he only wanted to be Li Tai’s underling and live a peaceful life?! How was that possible?!! His identity had to be much more than that!!

Indeed. Bai Zhou was a transmigrator, and that fact alone was the biggest issue. But would Bai Zhou tell Zhou Siyun that?

“You don’t need to know.” Bai Zhou didn’t hesitate as he opened the door of the hotel room.

Zhou Siyun, almost instinctively, took two steps forward. But the next moment, both of them heard a very familiar voice: “Brother Zhou?! What are you doing here?!”
