The Villain: Claiming The Protagonist's Master

[🎉 Shoutout to ItsShaBoi for joining patreon. Thank you very much.🤗]

The loyal guards assembled in the hall were an imposing sight. Each one of them had been recruited by Su Yong's father at an enormous cost. Every single one was a master capable of exceeding their limits in critical moments.

With such elite warriors at his command, coupled with the support of the Xiao family and their faction within Xiao Tiancheng, Su Yong was confident that they could seize the Xiao family's leadership. Afterward, they would mobilize all the Xiao family's forces to attack the Su family.

He intended to exploit the absence of Su Hao and the other key members of the Su family in Donghua Province. This was his opportunity to crush the Su family, annihilate Qin Xinran and Su Chen, and avenge his parents.

"Please, everyone, be seated."

Su Yong's tone was calm, but the fervor in his chest was barely contained. He coughed lightly and addressed the assembly.

"Thank you, Young Master Su!" The guards bowed in unison before returning to their seats.

"My friends," Su Yong began, his voice steady but firm, "I won't waste words. I've gathered you here to announce that the time has come for us to act. We will reclaim what is rightfully ours. This is my decision, and I hope for your unwavering support. When we succeed, I will reward each of you handsomely."

His declaration ignited a wave of enthusiasm among the gathered warriors.

"Young Master Su, we swear to follow you to the death!"

"Just give the word, and we will charge through fire and water!"

"We are your loyal servants and will lay down our lives for you!"

The hall erupted with declarations of loyalty.

"Good! Excellent!" Su Yong's lips curled into a satisfied smile. Beneath that smile, however, was a cold, murderous glint in his eyes. He muttered to himself, "Su Chen, let's see how you fare against me now. Once the Xiao family falls under my control, your end will be near."

A sinister laugh escaped his lips as he envisioned his ultimate victory—Su Chen kneeling before him in despair, begging for mercy. He fantasized about savoring his revenge, even toying with Su Chen's loved ones before his very eyes.

Night had fallen. The moon hung high in the sky, stars scattered sparsely across the heavens. The tranquil evening belied the turmoil brewing in the shadows.

In the Su family estate, within Su Chen's bedroom, a woman lay gracefully on the bed. Her eyes glimmered with a soft allure.

Her beauty was breathtaking—flawless skin that seemed to glow under the dim light, delicate features that could only be described as a masterpiece, and an enchanting aura that left one mesmerized. Her figure was equally divine, her curves perfect and captivating. Yet, faint bruises on her porcelain skin hinted at the intensity of the night.

"Ahh…"

The woman opened her eyes slowly, her voice carrying a trace of exhaustion. She looked up at the man before her and whispered, "Husband… you're so strong."

A mischievous grin spread across Su Chen's face. "Weren't you always pestering me to give you a son? What's the matter? Can't handle it now?"

Her cheeks flushed a deep crimson, and she bit her lip in embarrassment.

Being the only one left to serve Su Chen after Xia Qingxue's injury, Chu Yanran had borne the full brunt of his attention. Never had she anticipated such a "calamity."

"Husband, I…" she stammered, her voice trembling with both shyness and exhaustion.

"Come on," Su Chen teased, his grin widening. "Call me 'husband' properly."

Blushing furiously, Chu Yanran had no choice but to comply. "H-husband…"

Hearing her soft voice, Su Chen's grin deepened. "That's more like it."

In the adjacent room, Xiao Ruoyu lay on her bed, her delicate brows furrowed in confusion. She could clearly hear Chu Yanran's cries through the thin walls.

"Is Su Chen… abusing her?" Xiao Ruoyu muttered to herself, her tone laced with suspicion.

She was recovering from injuries inflicted by Chu Yang, but her senses were sharp. The muffled cries sounded distressing, and her mind jumped to unpleasant conclusions.

"Men are all the same—untrustworthy scum!" she whispered angrily, her gaze icy. "What kind of man would treat a woman like this? He doesn't deserve to be my husband."

Though she fumed inwardly, Xiao Ruoyu eventually forced herself to turn away from the noise. Closing her eyes, she tried to block out the chaotic thoughts swirling in her mind.

In another room, however, Xia Qingxue wasn't as composed. She, too, heard the sounds drifting through the walls. Her face flushed red as a wave of embarrassment and heat washed over her.

Her heart raced uncontrollably. As someone who had already experienced the intricacies of such moments with Su Chen, she knew exactly what was happening.

The muffled sounds stirred something deep within her—a dormant longing that she struggled to suppress. Her body grew warm, and her mind became clouded.

"No… I can't think about this," she murmured, shaking her head in an attempt to dispel the thoughts. But no matter how hard she tried, the sounds persisted, tempting and taunting her.

Unable to bear the tension any longer, Xia Qingxue clenched her fists tightly. She felt her resolve weakening as the sensations overwhelmed her. Finally, she could endure it no more.

"Who… who can help me?" she whispered, her voice trembling with desperation.

Summoning her last shred of courage, she got up and walked toward the door. Her footsteps were hesitant but determined.

———

Meanwhile, in Su Chen's room, silence had finally returned after a prolonged storm. Chu Yanran lay limp, her body glistening with sweat, her face flushed and radiant. Her breathing was shallow, her energy spent.

Behind her, Su Chen appeared as calm as ever, not the least bit tired. His mischievous smirk lingered as he gazed at her with a satisfied expression.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, followed by a soft, trembling voice.

"Husband… please help me…"
