Chapter 105 The whole story
Lin Yue had actually sensed something was off as soon as they entered the haunted house. Just as the staff were about to explain the rides, a manager suddenly appeared and warmly greeted them. For ordinary tourists like them, this treatment was highly unusual. Not only that, but there were four forks in the road inside the haunted house, each leading one of them in a different direction – this series of coincidences was far too strange.
To avoid alerting the enemy, Lin Yue decided to cooperate discreetly, pretending to be drugged and unconscious. So, she leaned limply against the person closest to her, closed her eyes tightly, and acted as if she were unconscious.
"I'd like to see just who would try to scheme against me for no reason!"
"Boss, she's passed out," Lin Yue heard a hoarse voice shout.
"Get her to the boss right away! Hurry up, don't dawdle! Let's go this way." Another deep and urgent voice rang out.
Several figures moved swiftly, carrying her towards another exit of the haunted house. Outside the exit was a dark and gloomy underground parking lot, the air thick with the smell of dampness and decay.
They roughly shoved her into a black sedan without any politeness and then closed the door.
Lin Yue's bottom slammed onto the hard cushion, causing her to frown and almost cry out.
The group started the engine, and the car sped away like an arrow.
However, the car didn't travel for long before slowly coming to a stop. Lin Yue felt her body being lifted up by a pair of strong arms again, and with the person's footsteps, her head swayed back and forth, and her stomach churned.
Just as she was about to hit him, the person stopped. Then, she was forced to sit down in a chair.
Lin Yue: "..." She endured the pain and the urge to hit them. The men didn't notice anything and tied her hands and feet.
At this moment, the surroundings were so quiet that only the sound of one's own breathing and heartbeat could be heard. Suddenly, the silence was broken by the soft sound of a door opening. Immediately afterwards, the crisp sound of high heels clicking on the floor came from afar.
"Boss, you've arrived!" Lin Yue heard someone say respectfully.
"Hmph, this shameless wretch! Pour water on her and wake her up!" Lin Yue heard the woman's voice filled with anger and resentment.
Immediately afterwards, she heard someone carrying a bucket. This wouldn't do; it would be so embarrassing to be woken up by someone pouring water on her, and she would also get soaked.
She opened her eyes and saw several people surrounding her. Her eyes were filled with terror. She struggled a few times, but found herself tied up. She immediately shouted, "Who are you?" while scanning her surroundings.
It was a small room. In front of her was a beautiful woman and several men. The woman looked terrible and was glaring at her.
"Huh? You woke up on your own so quickly? Your sleeping potion isn't working well?" one man said, looking at the other.
"It's better that you're awake; it saves me a lot of trouble!" Accompanied by a sharp and piercing shout, the woman in the lead was none other than Qin!
Her delicate face was now contorted with rage, her eyes fixed on Lin Yue as if spitting fire. She gritted her teeth and said, "Hmph, you really do have the look of a vixen. No wonder you were able to seduce my man!"
Lin Yue looked completely bewildered. What nonsense is this woman spouting? What man?
"Excuse me, ma'am, who exactly is this man you're talking about?" Despite her confusion, Lin Yue maintained basic politeness; it's always better to be courteous first than forceful.
However, her politeness did not elicit a similar response. Hearing this, Qin was even more enraged, her eyes widening like saucers. She roared, "You lowly slut, how dare you play dumb here? What right do you, a lowly illegitimate daughter, have to be Brother Ye Chen's fiancée?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue finally realized that the man she was talking about was actually that beast Ye Chen.
Strangely enough, Ye Chen hasn't been hanging around in front of her as often as he used to, which has made Lin Yue feel much better.
But what's with this sudden, out-of-touch fiancée status? The woman in front of her had just mentioned the term "illegitimate daughter," and she instantly had a guess in her mind. It seemed that the Zhou family was most likely behind this.
Seeing Lin Yue remain silent, Qin mistakenly assumed that she had tacitly agreed out of guilt, and immediately became even more arrogant and domineering, cursing filthyly, "Shameless bitch! Today, I'll teach you some manners!" Before she finished speaking, she raised her palm and slapped Lin Yue's delicate cheek with a sharp gust of wind.
Lin Yue's eyes turned cold. How dare you insult me! You're asking for death! She easily broke free of the ropes binding her by raising her arms to the sides and grabbed Qin's hand.
"We're both women, yet you keep using such insulting terms for women. Do you think I'm being disrespectful?" Lin Yue, having held back her strength, punched Qin Yi in the nose! A "crack" was heard, and blood gushed out!
"Ah! You wretched woman!" With a piercing scream, Qin covered her nose with both hands, her body uncontrollably staggering backward. Blood gushed from between her fingers; clearly, her fragile nasal bone was broken!
At this moment, Qin's face was contorted with pain, and his eyes were filled with anger and resentment.
"What are you all standing there for? Get him!" Qin roared furiously, seeing the men around her standing there dumbfounded. Her shout snapped them out of their daze, and they lunged at Lin Yue with their claws outstretched. However, they were no match for a delicate woman.
Lin Yue flashed forward and kicked one of the men. The man screamed and flew out like a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground and instantly losing consciousness.
Immediately afterward, Lin Yue repeated the same move, kicking out twice more. The other two followed suit, collapsing to the ground and falling into a deep coma, sleeping peacefully like newborn babies.
Seeing this, Qin was terrified. She desperately retreated while stammering, "You...you stay away! I'm a member of the Qin family. If you dare to lay a finger on me, our Qin family will never let you get away with it!"
However, Lin Yue remained unmoved. She reached out and grabbed Qin's slender neck, then gently lifted her up as if she were a chick.
If she didn't hold back, she could kill these people with a single kick, but if she killed them, it would cause a lot of trouble later.
At this moment, Qin's feet were off the ground, and her pretty face was flushed red from suffocation.
She waved her hands in vain, trying to break free from Lin Yue's grasp, but it was all futile. Extreme fear gripped her; she had never imagined that this seemingly delicate woman possessed such terrifying strength.
"I...I'm sorry, I'll never dare to compete with you for Ye Chen again...Please, have mercy on me!" Qin managed to squeeze out these words, his voice trembling violently.
"Hmph! I don't care about what's going on between you and that Ye Chen. Besides, I don't know where you heard those ridiculous rumors about me being his fiancée. Let me tell you the truth, does someone like him even deserve me? I only feel disgust for him. Believe it or not!" Lin Yue snorted coldly, her icy words like a biting wind, making Qin shiver involuntarily.
Upon hearing this, Qin's eyes lit up with joy, but she was already struggling to breathe: "I...I believe you! Please...let me go!"
Lin Yue released her grip, and Qin Xian fell to the ground, gasping for breath. Lin Yue squatted down and looked at her: "Since your family is so powerful, don't you know that attacking a Kamen Rider is a criminal offense?"
Qin was stunned. She looked at Lin Yue in shock. This girl was a Kamen Rider? Although her family was powerful, it was not easy to find out someone's Kamen Rider identity, after all, the Kamen Riders were backed by the government.
"I...I'm so sorry, Knight, I really didn't know!" Thinking of the fates of many people who attacked Kamen Riders, Qin immediately lowered his head and begged for mercy.
"I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself." Lin Yue looked at her with a smile, as if nothing had just happened: "Tell me where this rumor came from, and also, what's the Zhou family's attitude!"
The Zhou family is, after all, the most powerful family. It would be a piece of cake for them to suppress the rumors, unless—they are unwilling to do so.
"Yes." Qin nodded slightly, lowering his head even further, and slowly began to recount the whole story.
As Qin continued his narration, Lin Yue's expression grew increasingly grim. Wang Mengyun? This was a completely unfamiliar name; she had never heard of it before.
"Do you have a photo of this Wang Mengyun?" Lin Yue suppressed her anger and tried her best to keep her tone calm.
