The Bootlicking Antagonist Only Wants to Survive, but the Female Lead Refuses to Follow the Usual Plot

Chapter 375 - 375 I came out angry, Mr. Lu was excited

Chapter 375 I came out angry, Mr. Lu was excited

Chu Bai stood up with a swish.

The five upper doors (Shang Si Men) also stood up with a swish.

Jiang Xiao Hou's fierce gaze instantly vanished, replaced by an innocent and carefree expression. "Big brother, why did they all stand up?"

Lu Cheng Wen gritted his teeth. "You all... sit the f*** down!"

The six people slowly sat down.

Lu Cheng Wen coaxed them as if soothing a child. "They're... playing a game."

"Oh?" Jiang Xiao Hou asked, "Are they good friends?"

"Yes!" Lu Cheng Wen replied. "They are good friends! They... are peaceful and friendly, united as one, love sharing, and often play games together."

"Oh!" Jiang Xiao Hou said. "Fighting is bad, fighting is scary!"

"That's right, so Xiao Hou must be a good child in the future, get along with classmates, and not fight, okay?"

"Mm, Xiao Hou Hou will listen to Big Brother."

Lu Cheng Wen helped Jiang Xiao Hou with the napkin, then turned back and glared at the others. "Eat."

Everyone started eating.

Chu Bai, with a bruised and swollen face, his nose still slowly bleeding, looked at Jiang Xiao Hou.

The moment Jiang Xiao Hou lowered her head, she gave him that look again.

Confirmed!

She's the boss!

What the hell!?

Wait! Wait a second!

The boss... sent people to capture me, over and over again... then helped me advance to Shang Si Men...

She sent me here to kill Lu Cheng Wen, but on Lu Cheng Wen's side, five Shang Si Men were already waiting for me...

And now the boss herself is actually the little sister that Lu Cheng Wen somehow found...

Wait... this is a mess!

The boss sent me to kill her brother, but she also helped these five losers advance to Shang Si Men, so they could gang up on me...

Then what does that make me!?

I'm the only outsider here!?

This boss isn't a proper boss at all!

Chu Bai sat there, feeling utterly lonely and miserable, on the verge of tears.

Lu Cheng Wen sighed, stood up, picked up a bottle of red wine, and poured for them one by one.

Wherever he passed, each Tuo Wang looked flattered, quickly stood up, and held their cups with both hands.

Lu Cheng Wen signaled for them to sit down, then finally walked up to Chu Bai and poured him some wine.

Chu Bai sat there dumbfounded, staring at Lu Cheng Wen.

Lu Cheng Wen leaned in and whispered,

"Enemies should be resolved rather than formed. Eat something, have some wine, and then leave. Don't show up again. My little sister has suffered mental trauma. She's still just a child—pure, kind-hearted, and innocent. Don't scare her. If you scare her, I'll kill you."

Chu Bai looked at Lu Cheng Wen, thinking, You really don't recognize her!?

She's a child!? She's a child!?

And pure and kind-hearted!? Innocent!?

She's a demon king, for f's sake!*

Jiang Xiao Hou finished eating, got up from the table, and politely stood to the side. "Xiao Hou has finished eating. Brothers, please enjoy your meal."

Then, she bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle.

The strategist shook his head in admiration. "What a well-mannered child."

Jin Tuo Wang (Gold Lump King) also said, "She looks so pure."

Tong Tuo Wang (Bronze Lump King) added, "Innocent and adorable!"

Tie Tuo Wang (Iron Lump King) sighed, "Her eyes are so clear. I can see the childhood innocence we've long lost in them."

Yin Tuo Wang (Silver Lump King) nodded. "She's definitely going to have a bright future."

Everyone praised her in turn, then all looked at Chu Bai.

Chu Bai was stunned for a while before squeezing out a sentence: "Just... if she wore white clothes, she'd look even better..."

Lu Cheng Wen said, "Alright, I'll stay here and drink with them. Go play, but don't wander too far!"

"Yes! Goodbye, Big Brother! Goodbye, brothers!"

Jiang Xiao Hou left.

Lu Cheng Wen poked his head out, and the five immediately gathered around.

Lu Cheng Wen said, "Xiao Hou is still young and inexperienced. She doesn't understand much. From now on, keep fights and killings away from her. Don't corrupt the child."

"Yes, yes, yes. Rest assured, Boss Lu."

Lu Cheng Wen continued, "Escort Chu Bai out and tell him never to come back."

"Understood."

Tong Tuo Wang (Bronze Lump King) and Tie Tuo Wang (Iron Lump King) pressed down on Chu Bai and escorted him to the door. Tie Tuo Wang kicked him in the butt with a loud clang. "Get lost!"

Chu Bai clutched his butt, looking furious. "Just you wait!"

The two Tuo Wangs were about to head back when Tie Tuo Wang turned around. "What did you say?"

Chu Bai immediately turned away. "Goodbye."

He had only taken a few steps when a car drove up. The door opened, and someone yanked Chu Bai inside. Before he could say a word, a palm struck him, knocking him out cold.

...

In the villa.

Lu Cheng Wen and the others were drinking when Jiang Shihan returned.

"Boss Lu, Miss Yi Duo and her agent are here to visit."

Lu Cheng Wen's eyes widened. "What's going on?"

Jiang Shihan was stunned. "I thought you had given permission!"

"I never did!"

Jiang Shihan was dumbfounded. She realized that she had been tricked by that Zhang-surnamed agent.

In the past, if she had made such a big mistake—bringing someone uninvited into the villa to meet the boss—it would have been a career disaster.

Not only would the boss doubt her competence, but he would also suspect that she had taken a bribe.

Jiang Shihan had indeed accepted a bribe—a luxury brand handbag that the agent insisted on giving her, along with a set of jewelry endorsed by Cang Yang Yi Duo.

Together, they were probably worth a few hundred thousand.

That Zhang-surnamed agent was incredibly persuasive, hinting that Boss Lu was very fond of Yi Duo and that the appointment had been arranged yesterday.

But clearly, Lu Cheng Wen had never planned this meeting at all.

Jiang Shihan had messed up badly. She could only act coquettishly, "So what do we do now? They're already at the door! Wouldn't it be bad to send them away?"

"Take them to the reception hall."

...

In the reception hall.

The agent Zhang excitedly rushed forward to shake hands with Lu Cheng Wen. Lu Cheng Wen lazily lifted his hand, let him grasp it briefly, then withdrew it and walked back to his desk, his tone indifferent. "Take a seat, everyone."

"Alright, alright, alright!" Zhang jingji did not feel disrespected at all. He was here to ask for money, and with assets worth billions, even if the other party treated him coldly—or even slapped him twice—he would still smile and accept it.

Zhang zingji had not only brought his own signed celebrity, Cangyang Yiduo, but also the pre-booked lead actor Wan Bin, the director, producer, screenwriter, and the original author of the work—I Am Fury.

Zhang Jingji introduced them one by one, and when he finally introduced I Am Fury, Lu Chengwen's expression changed: "You are Fury?"

The man smiled, "I am Fury."

Lu Chengwen narrowed his eyes: "Are you really him?"

i am Fury was taken aback: "Would this even be fake?"

Lu Chengwen quickly calculated in his mind.

This bastard, huh? He wrote a book and put himself into it!

Wait! Wait, wait, wait!

He wrote himself into this world—so is the Fury in this world the same person as the one in reality?

In the script in my mind, even Cangyang Yiduo doesn't exist, which means they all appear only in later parts of the story.

Right now, Long Aotian's storyline is stuck in Snow City and can't progress, yet these people are all showing up one after another...

This guy... He might hold all the secrets about this world.

In other words, if I just grab this bastard and squeeze him like a tube of toothpaste, I can find out all the future characters, plots, details—even the grand finale!?

Looking at this guy closely—he's all dressed up, looking like he's made quite a bit of money.

Sharp-chinned, monkey-faced, repulsive, yet wearing a high-end suit.

Damn, even if you put on a dragon robe, you wouldn't look like a crown prince!

Lu Chengwen smiled, "Hahaha! Teacher Fury, what brilliant writing! I love every one of your novels!"

i am Fury nodded, displaying a humble smile that perfectly embodied the essence of a 'cultured scumbag,' but in reality, he was basking in self-satisfaction.

"You've heard of my stories?"

Lu Chengwen laughed, "Your face is full of stories! I've been reading your novels since I was a kid. They're truly well-written."

i am Fury was delighted, pretending to be modest, "Literature has been my passion since childhood. But only after truly stepping onto the path of a professional writer did I realize the hardships and challenges of this journey."

The director, producer, Wan Bin, and Cangyang Yiduo all nodded in deep agreement.

Lu Chengwen was also smiling.

But in his mind, he was thinking:

[What the hell do you know about literature? You're just a web novelist making money off borderline content! What does that have to do with literature?]

[I was just being polite, and now you're actually acting all humble? With your garbage-tier work, the fact that you haven't been flamed to death by readers is already a miracle!]

Cangyang Yiduo was shocked.

She could hear Lu Chengwen's inner thoughts, and she absolutely couldn't believe it. On the surface, he was being polite to the original author, but in his heart, he was cursing and insulting a successful writer like this?

This was the definition of a two-faced snake! A despicable and sinister man!

Lu Chengwen smiled and said, "Geniuses will always be envied! You have exceptional talent, so of course, people will be jealous."

"That's exactly right!" I Am Fury got excited, "So many people don't understand literature at all, yet they keep criticizing my works as lowbrow! I write lowbrow stuff, and they call me lowbrow—aren't they the ones with the real problem? Calling a scumbag a scumbag—this is a fundamental logic error!"

"Exactly!" Lu Chengwen laughed heartily, "Popular literature is just like that! If you like it, you read it. If you don't like it, just ignore it—what's the point of ranting on forums?"

I Am Fury suddenly felt like he had found a kindred spirit: "Ah, Mr. Lu! You really get it!"

Lu Chengwen burst out laughing again:

[Get what, my ass! You're just a fraud and a con artist living off false fame!]

Lu Chengwen smiled and asked, "So how's the script this time?"

I Am Fury replied, "Absolutely fantastic! This 'Sun Wukong vs. Huluwa: Battle on the Forbidden Peak' and 'The Brutal Case of Zhang Ergou: Patricide in a State of Emergency, A Tale of Revenge and Blood' were both inspired by my time wandering in Chengwen District..."

Lu Chengwen burst into laughter: "Say no more! I'm investing!"

Everyone was stunned.

"Uh..." The producer stepped forward. "Mr. Lu, I think we should at least discuss—"

"No need to discuss. I'm investing."

"But the details—"

"Details are unnecessary," Lu Chengwen said. "A few billion, that's nothing to me."

Everyone was thrilled.

The producer said, "However, we do have a proposal. We'd like you to invest in both films at the same time."

"Hmm?"

The producer explained, "Don't misunderstand. We believe that 'The Brutal Case of Zhang Ergou: Patricide in a State of Emergency, A Tale of Revenge and Blood' is a purely literary work, so it might not perform well at the box office. But 'Sun Wukong vs. Huluwa: Battle on the Forbidden Peak' is an action-packed film with explosive scenes and incredible special effects! It will definitely be a box-office hit! Our plan is to use the success of 'Sun Wukong vs. Huluwa' to offset the costs of 'The Brutal Case of Zhang Ergou...'"

Lu Chengwen was about to lose his mind.

"Fine, fine, do whatever you want. I don't understand art, and judging from this, you guys don't either. I'll just provide the money—you make the films."

"But this 'Zhang Ergou...'"

Lu Chengwen pointed at his nose, "If you say those two names again, I'll slap you to death!"
