I Became the Henchman of a Novel’s Villain

Chapter 1 - Absolutely Not a Scapegoat!



A woman’s scream woke a young man who was dozing off. When the young man came to his senses, he thought to himself in disbelief: Did I just transmigrate?!

This was a suite in a hidden corner of a hotel.

On the large bed in the suite, an absolutely stunning woman was tied up tightly and thrown on it. Her mouth was gagged. Even in her disheveled state, her beauty couldn’t be concealed. Her long legs were tightly bound together, but their length told Bai Zhou that this woman was definitely no less than 175 cm tall!

“Li Yonggang?” Bai Zhou quietly mulled over the information he had just received, a hint of astonishment flashing in his eyes.

“Li Yonggang?! Isn’t that the villain from the urban novel I was just reading a couple of days ago?! And this stunning beauty who has been kidnapped—she must be the female protagonist, Mu Qingqing, from that novel!”

The scene in front of him was exactly the one from the original novel where the villain, Li Yonggang, in his unrequited love for Mu Qingqing, tried to kidnap and assault her!

“Then who am I?”

At this moment, a man, who had finally quieted the room down, spoke to Bai Zhou, panting: “Brother Zhou, this chick is all yours. The young master will be here soon. I need a break—this girl is really a handful!”

As he spoke, the man grumbled and left the room.

“So, I am Bai Zhou?”

No kidding, Bai Zhou is none other than Bai Zhou!

[lol. Author ripping MC.]

Of course, the Bai Zhou he was referring to was the one in the novel. A subordinate of Li Yonggang. But this character disappeared after only three chapters.

Because, damn it, not only was Young Master Li Yonggang coming soon, but the authorities would arrive right after him!  Li Yonggang bolted the moment he saw things going south. Leaving Bai Zhou to take the fall!

Although Mu Qingqing was adamant that Li Yonggang was behind it, with Li Yonggang’s wealthy family pulling the strings, making Bai Zhou the scapegoat was a small matter!

Thinking of this, Bai Zhou stared at the tightly bound Mu Qingqing on the bed, lost in thought.

He knew the plot of the original novel inside out. He knew that if things kept going like this, he was dead for sure! Because the Li family, to prevent the situation from getting exposed, would have him poisoned in his cell.

Like hell that could happen!

But Bai Zhou suddenly had an idea!

“Wait a minute! I’m here on orders from Li Yonggang’s father, Li Tai!”

That’s right, Bai Zhou wasn’t just a low-level lackey of Li Yonggang; he had another identity—he was a man personally sent by Li Yonggang’s father, Li Tai, to support his son!

And Bai Zhou knew that because the trouble caused by kidnapping Mu Qingqing, the heiress of the Mu Group, was too great, Li Tai locked Li Yonggang up for a whole month!

In other words, Li Tai completely disapproved of Li Yonggang’s actions!

“Snap!” Bai Zhou snapped his fingers.

“Abusing power! Using Li Yonggang’s father’s authority to suppress Li Yonggang! After all, isn’t this exactly what lackeys in novels are supposed to do?”

Bai Zhou decided to maintain this “professional attitude”—to ensure that he wouldn’t end up as a scapegoat!

Tears welled in Mu Qingqing’s eyes as she struggled on the bed. She suddenly noticed that the accomplice left behind by the kidnapper was standing up from his previous position. He was slowly walking toward her. Her heart instantly filled with dread!

She struggled even more fiercely, her wary gaze scanning the man up and down.

A cold flash appeared, and she saw the man draw a gleaming knife from his waist! In Mu Qingqing’s eyes, the man now resembled a grim reaper about to take her life.

She shook her head repeatedly, her eyes shifting from threatening to pleading.

However, the man before her showed no sign of mercy. He swiftly raised the knife. With a “shing!” sound, Mu Qingqing on the bed immediately stopped struggling.

“Young Master! Mu Qingqing has been captured and is inside the room!”

Outside the door, urgent footsteps approached.

A gloomy voice, tinged with anticipation, rang out: “Did you handle things cleanly?”

“Clean! For some reason, Mu Qingqing didn’t have her bodyguards with her. She was alone shopping in the mall, and we nabbed her in the restroom.”

“Good! Hahaha!” A sinister, crazed laugh echoed.

“It’s heaven’s blessing!!” The voice came closer, tinged with cruelty. “Tonight, I will make this woman, who has always looked down on me, my slave under my feet!”

As soon as the words were spoken—

Bang!!

With a loud crash, the door to the room was violently kicked open!

A man, around 28 or 29 years old, with a pale, sickly face tinged with a feverish flush, walked in grandly with three to five lackeys trailing behind him.

This man was Li Yonggang!

But the moment he stepped inside, the smile on Li Yonggang’s face froze!

He roared in fury: “Where is she?!”
