Chapter 483: Diverting the Disaster Elsewhere

[Ding dong—]

[Detected that the yellow-haired host Cao Han may be in mortal danger. Emergency rescue measures are now being activated…]

With the Shadow Guard’s perspective, Mu An’s gaze subconsciously locked onto Cao Han.

More precisely, with the help of the [Eye of Appraisal], he immediately saw a small glowing orb inside Cao Han’s mind.

Naturally, the warning message was fully ‘seen through’ by Mu An.

‘Emergency rescue measures, huh?’

‘Should I try pulling this thing out and playing with it? Crushing a protagonist’s system to death sounds pretty fun, doesn’t it?’

The man narrowed his eyes slightly.

As he was considering whether to use some force, Strongest Blondie Choice System backed down first.

Strongest Blondie Choice System: [Enemy detected to be overwhelmingly powerful. The system itself faces a 99.9999% risk of destruction. Emergency rescue measures are automatically suspended!]

[Honored sir, please do as you please without any concern for this little system’s feelings. Afterward, this little system will also assist you in completely erasing this related memory from host Cao Han, so that you will have no worries at all.]

Mu An: “……”

‘As the protagonist’s system, you switched sides at lightspeed just like that? At least resist a little!’

“Very sensible! I’ll arrange something for you next time if I get the chance!”

Mu An smiled faintly and casually made a big promise.

Of course, he wasn’t even sure if systems had such a thing as ‘arrangements.’

Anyway, it was better to bluff for now.

As for crushing the protagonist system, that was just a passing thought—he wasn’t entirely confident.

If the opponent was determined to fight to the death, he couldn’t guarantee he’d come out unscathed.

Strongest Blondie Choice System: [This little system thanks you in advance, sir!]

Whether it was Mu An’s imagination or not, he felt the reply lacked the usual cold formality and instead had a bit more human-like… flattery?

With the Strongest Blondie Choice System, the final barrier, now gone, Cao Han, lying unconscious on the ground, had completely become fish on the chopping block, awaiting his fate of being slaughtered.

…..

Elsewhere.

After being viciously beaten by his father, Li Lanfei was supporting his waist and limping toward the outside of the academy.

“Damn, I’m seriously unlucky today!”

“Not only did the girl I had my eye on get noticed by someone else first, I also got beaten up hard by my old man. And now transferring schools is basically set in stone.”

“Once I transfer, all the effort I put into finally getting into the kendo club and becoming a regular starter will all have been for nothing.”

“Sigh, but this is already the best solution. If I get targeted by that Young Master of the Mu family again later, it won’t be as simple as just transferring schools. I might even lose my life!”

Li Lanfei was not some intellectually deficient fool. After being fatly beaten up by his father, plus getting an explanation, he had also figured out the stakes involved.

Therefore…

He naturally blamed everything on that guy, the one pretending to be a mad dog chasing after his fiancée!

Mu An was the Mu family’s young master, and he could not afford to provoke him.

Wang Xing’er was suspected to be Young Master Mu’s woman, and he could not afford to provoke her either.

His fiancée came from a family of equal strength; he couldn’t afford to provoke her either.

So, who could he afford to provoke?

Obviously, it was Cao Han, a commoner with no background!

As the saying goes,

“You pick the soft persimmon to squeeze.”

And Cao Han was that soft persimmon.

“I’ve already checked in advance. A mere commoner dares to provoke my fiancée? Don’t let me catch him, or I’ll beat him to a pulp!”

Li Lanfeng snorted coldly.

Having bottled up so much anger, he naturally needed to find a place to vent.

And it was right then…

“Ha ha, hey there, big dummy, how come you’ve gotten this pathetic after just a few days?”

A battle-damaged version of a ‘beggar’ with a wild afro jumped out and casually patted Li Lanfei on the shoulder.

Li Lanfei was stunned.

If it weren’t for the fact that the guy seemed to have just washed his face, making it barely possible to see clearly, he might have seriously suspected that this guy was some black guy who had illegally crossed over from another continent.

And on top of that…

“Who the hell are you? Don’t we know each other?”

‘Cao Han’ cleared his throat and swaggered as he introduced himself.

“We didn’t know each other before, but we will soon!”

“Allow me to briefly introduce myself. I’m Cao Han, known in the underworld as the Crazy Mad Dog Young Master, and my lifelong favorite thing is married women!”

“That’s right, the man who acted like a mad dog and chased your fiancée not long ago… was me! I have to say, your fiancée’s body smells really good! Even her little feet taste fragrant when licked, heh-heh-heh—”

Li Lanfei was completely dumbfounded.

What followed was boundless rage.

He’d seen people mock and insult him before, but he’d never seen anyone so arrogantly and brazenly insult him like this!

“There’s a road to heaven and you won’t take it, but you barge into hell where there’s no gate! This young master was just worrying about not being able to find you, you bastard! Let’s see whether I beat you to death today or not!”

Li Lanfei laughed from extreme anger. Forgetting all about the pain, he immediately spread his arms and lunged at ‘Cao Han’ like a huge, burly bear.

Of course, ‘Cao Han’ wasn’t about to just sit there and take it. He dodged, dodged, and dodged again.

Compared to Li Lanfei, his lean body seemed to unleash endless strength.

He always managed to turn danger into safety at the last moment, slipping away from his opponent’s grasp time and again.

Not only that, ‘Cao Han’ took his verbal provocations to the extreme, spitting out curses and wildly dancing around Li Lanfei’s ‘minefield.’

“Hey hey, can’t catch me, just can’t catch me! What’s wrong, are you no good? Don’t tell me you’re already spent?”

“For the sake of your future happy married life, maybe I should reluctantly help water your fiancée!”

“I guarantee I’ll raise her nice and plump, while you can just take responsibility for raising our son. That way you’ll at least have some sense of participation. What do you think?”

Li Lanfei was about to lose his mind from anger, his eyes bloodshot, gasping for breath, his gaze terrifying enough to devour a person alive.

“If you’ve got guts, stop running! I’m going to kill you!!!”

The two chased and fled.

Just as the saying goes.

He chased, he ran, yet he could not escape even with wings.

In the end, ‘Cao Han’ seemed exhausted and, in a panic, ran into a secluded public area.

Without hesitation, Li Lanfei charged in after him.

Ready to trap him like a manly man catching another manly man in a barrel.

Meanwhile…

Inside a bathroom stall.

The real Cao Han, who had been brought there in advance, woke up at just the right moment.

Looking at the surroundings, plus the choking smell assaulting his nostrils, he was completely dumbfounded.

“Hiss—! What the hell did they do to me?”

“Wasn’t I ambushed and knocked out? So, who beat me up? And why am I back here?”

Just as Cao Han was trying to recall, the bathroom door was suddenly kicked open from the outside.

He instinctively looked up and saw an enraged muscular man.

The man’s eyes were wide with fury, like an angry lion, and he grabbed Cao Han’s collar, who was still dazed.

“Finally caught you, you stinking loser! Run? Go on, keep running for me! Weren’t you so good at running?”

“You still dare cuckold me? Today I’m going to flush you straight down the toilet!!”
