The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Pushed Too Far

Lin Tian took a deep breath and continued, ”If one day you raise your fist to resist, even if you can’t win, they’ll think twice before troubling you again!”

”You can’t stand firm without being ruthless, I guess that’s the meaning!” Lin Tian tossed the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out.

”I was the one who cut off Durant’s finger, if you’re really afraid of trouble, push it onto me!” Lin Tian stood up and glanced at the stunned Bai Shishi, ”It’s getting late and all the work is done, I’ll leave now!”

Bai Shishi watched Lin Tian’s departing figure, his words echoing in her ears; perhaps she didn’t take a student’s words seriously at first.

But some of his words just now gradually dispelled her fear, worry, and terror.

”But I’m a woman, I can’t fight Du Dahai!” Bai Shishi finally confessed her feelings.

Xianglong Tea House had just opened, how many people saw her as a woman causing trouble, precisely because her identity as a woman kept her from acting freely, daring to appear recklessly, so many felt the owner of Xianglong Tea House was mysterious.

Actually, it’s not mysterious; it’s Bai Shishi not wanting to show her face.

”Wu Zetian is a woman too, but why could she do it and you can’t? Because you aren’t ruthless enough!” Lin Tian slightly tilted his head, ”Besides, I’m a man!”

”I’m a man!” For some reason, Lin Tian’s words brought a slight warmth to Bai Shishi’s cold heart, making her eyes unexpectedly moist.

Since coming to Kanyue City to struggle, despite facing many difficulties, Bai Shishi had never cried, not even a single tear.

Now, just one sentence from Lin Tian almost made her emotional!

A woman needs a man’s shoulder to shield her from the wind and rain, Bai Shishi, who was drenched by the rain, was moved by Lin Tian’s inadvertent remark.

”Don’t cry!” Lin Tian was at a loss when he saw Bai Shishi’s beautiful tear-filled eyes.

The prospect of crying, fighting, and threatening is the most feared by men when women react like this.

”All of you, out!” Bai Shishi, dignified and composed, pulled out a tissue to wipe her eyes and instructed her subordinates.

The room suddenly became quieter, leaving Lin Tian and Bai Shishi to stare into each other’s eyes.

”If I were a few years younger, I’d really want you to be my man!” Bai Shishi’s gentle whisper echoed in the room...

Faced with Bai Shishi’s words, Lin Tian scratched his head, feeling awkward.

What’s this all about? Are you offering yourself to me?

”Actually, age isn’t a problem!” Lin Tian explained simply, ”If there’s mutual affection, who cares about age?”

”Then be my man!” Bai Shishi said casually.

This was just awkward!

Lin Tian’s face turned dark, and beads of sweat rolled down his temples.

”Boss, I’m still a student!” Lin Tian kindly reminded, as Celestial Dragon Continent values matching identities.

Given his current status and position, there’s no way he would be a match for Bai Shishi.

”I know!” Bai Shishi nodded, ”It’s okay, I have money, I can support you!”

”But...” Lin Tian scratched his head; he didn’t like this feeling.

How could a man, standing tall, rely on a woman for support?

But directly rejecting Bai Shishi wouldn’t be right; would it hurt her?

Logically, for a student to be picked by Bai Shishi, a woman with both beauty and wealth, is like getting a windfall that should leave him grinning.

But Lin Tian couldn’t really feel happy about it, because love can’t be forced, and he preferred the feeling of a relationship blossoming into love through mutual understanding.

This felt too abrupt and hard to accept.

”You don’t like me?” Bai Shishi was a bit surprised; she thought Lin Tian surely wouldn’t refuse, but his reaction was hesitant...

”I like you!” Lin Tian said with an awkward smile, ”Who doesn’t like a beauty!”

”Is it just because of my looks?”

”I think feelings shouldn’t be forced, maybe we should start by becoming friends!” Lin Tian thought for a long time before coming up with a gentle way to decline.

”Friends can become lovers?” Bai Shishi asked softly.

”If it’s possible, then we become lovers; if not, we can always be good friends, right?” Lin Tian responded to Bai Shishi.

”Okay, I was just joking with you!” Bai Shishi withdrew her pounding heart, no longer continuing this awkward topic.

”Oh!” Lin Tian smiled awkwardly.

”In that case, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first!” Lin Tian scratched his head awkwardly and said.

After all, he had just been expelled from school today, and he didn’t have a place to stay yet.

He needed to find a place to sleep tonight.

”It’s already late, let me drive you!” Bai Shishi said seriously.

”No need!”

”Is there any problem with the boss driving an employee home?”

”No problem!”

”Then let’s go!” Bai Shishi stood up and walked toward the door.

Lin Tian, unable to respond, could only obediently follow behind her.

Leaving Xianglong Tea House, sitting in the passenger seat of the Mercedes S400L, it was already ten o’clock at night.

Just as Bai Shishi asked Lin Tian where he wanted to go, her phone suddenly rang.

Bai Shishi took out her phone and frowned when she saw it was an unfamiliar number.

At this time, close to midnight, calls were already few, and an unfamiliar number surely didn’t bode well.

Lin Tian noticed Bai Shishi staring at her phone screen without answering, ”Why aren’t you picking up?”.

”Hello!” Bai Shishi had a bad feeling but finally hit the answer button.

”Hi, good evening Miss Bai!” Durant’s malicious laughter came over the phone.

”It’s you?” Bai Shishi frowned in disgust.

”Our boss wants to talk to you, good luck!” Durant said gloatingly, followed by a silence.

”Miss Bai?” A hoarse voice came from the phone.

”Who are you?” Bai Shishi already guessed who it was but couldn’t help confirming.

”Smiling! Face! Tiger!”

Bai Shishi took a deep breath to calm the panic inside: ”Good evening, Mr. Du!”

”Miss Bai, let’s not beat around the bush. I’m calling you tonight; you know what it’s about, right?”

”I know!” Bai Shishi nodded.

”My man had his finger cut by your man, aren’t you going to give me an explanation?”

”What does Mr. Du have in mind?” Bai Shishi subtly asked what Du Dahai meant.

”Fifty thousand in medical expenses!”

”Also, the IOU is void!”

Two crisp sentences, but they felt like swallowing bitter sorrow for Bai Shishi.

Your men came to create trouble; a punishment needs fifty thousand in medical fees.

What’s more disgusting is that the sixty-four million IOU is void; this is simply forcing what’s impossible.

Paying back debts is a natural law, this money lost by Durant and those guys playing cards should be paid.

If you can’t afford to lose, don’t play!!!

Because she was sitting in the car and the mic was loud, Lin Tian sitting beside could vaguely hear the two conversations.

”This is simply bullying!” Lin Tian’s fists clenched tightly, veins on his arms bulging like dragons.
