The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 925: Chapter 925: The Miserable Li Li (Part 2)

”Stop crying, this is the classroom office building, and the Xiaocheng Research Institute people are here too. If someone sees you crying, how embarrassing would that be? You don’t want to lose face abroad, do you?” Zhao Qingtang said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Li’s crying stopped suddenly. She squatted in the snow, raised her head and looked at the tall office building of teachers, and laughed bitterly, ”I myself am a joke already, I have long lost any face, am I still afraid of losing face abroad?”

How many times has she cried in this period?

Li Li couldn’t remember, it seemed like she had been crying very frequently recently, her eyes were somewhat swollen.

Why cry every day? For money, for lousy men, and for her own misfortunes.

Her tears seemed never to run dry.

Lin Tian replied coldly, ”She wasn’t talking about your face, your face is worth nothing. She was talking about the face of our school.”

Zhao Qingtang slightly opened her mouth, thinking Lin Tian was being a bit harsh, after all, this was a girl.

But considering Lin Tian’s circumstances, she still said nothing.

At this moment, whatever Lin Tian says or does ought to be reasonable.

Li Li looked at Lin Tian, her eyes brimming with tears seemed to redden even more.

”Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think my words were harsh? Think about those heavy words you said to me back then.” Lin Tian laughed, ”Now that I’m not kicking you while you’re down, you should count yourself lucky, right?”

”Do I need to thank you then?”

Li Li spoke bitterly, ”I admit, I was wrong to see you as a plain duck, not expecting you’d become a swan. Laugh all you want, I’m used to it. If you’ve had enough of the show, go back to where you came from.”

Li Li’s calmness was quite surprising, which piqued Lin Tian’s curiosity.

Given her personality, she ought to be throwing a tantrum now.

What Lin Tian didn’t know was that Li Li had gone through so much during this time, her temperament had somewhat changed, at least she wasn’t as arrogant as before since she no longer had Liu Mang and his son backing her, the price of arrogance was too high for her.

”People change, I should even thank you for my achievements today. So I don’t see you as a joke either.” Lin Tian said blandly.

If it weren’t for Li Li’s infidelity, Liu Chan wouldn’t have had someone beat him, nor would he have had the chance to be taught the Golden Core and Tyrant Emperor’s Record by a senior cultivator, leading to his transformation.

This might be the cycle of karma. The evil consequences sown by Liu Chan and Li Li were eventually given their due.

”Then why aren’t you leaving?” Li Li looked calmly at Lin Tian, her eyes full of hatred.

Even though she had wronged him, Li Li didn’t know why she still hated him.

”Haven’t you finished watching the joke? Why aren’t you leaving?” Li Li asked irritably.

Lin Tian chuckled, ”Then what about you? Why aren’t you leaving?”

”It’s none of your business. Crocodile tears and false charity.”

Before Lin Tian could speak, Zhao Qingtang couldn’t bear it any longer. She shifted her stance, stood directly in front of Li Li, and said, ”I see you love drama now, even after living like this, you still speak so aggressively. You think you owe us money, you’re the boss or something?”

Old habits die hard, and Li Li was exactly that kind of person. She had suffered recently, her temperament changed somewhat, but seeing Lin Tian inevitably brought out her old behavior.

If Liou Qingcheng were standing beside Lin Tian today, maybe she wouldn’t argue with Li Li, it wouldn’t be worth it.

And if beside Lin Tian were Bai Shishi, Mei Ruyan, or Zhou Mi, Li Li might end up in a miserable situation, possibly receiving a few slaps.

But today, beside Lin Tian was Zhao Qingtang, the beautiful genius studying ancient medicine. What does ancient medicine emphasize? Reason and evidence.

So, Zhao Qingtang’s approach... was to vent a bit first.

Li Li snorted heavily, ignoring Zhao Qingtang but looking at Lin Tian, suddenly laughing, ”I find that you and I are both of the same ilk, not good things either.”

Lin Tian originally wanted to see the two women quarrel, not expecting to be dragged into it.

”What do you mean? It’s true that you’re not a good thing, but what does it have to do with me?” Lin Tian thought himself innocent.

Li Li sneered, ”I was fickle, I dumped you. Look at you now, with Liou Qingcheng, Bai Shishi, and Mei Ruyan, plus another woman beside you, you’ve cheated more than I did, you’re worse than me!”

Zhao Qingtang became anxious, took a step forward, standing directly in front of Li Li, and said, ”I’m just an ordinary friend with him.”

”So be it, what does it have to do with me?” Li Li snorted disdainfully, ”The lady doth protest too much.”

”You...”

Zhao Qingtang wanted to say more but was interrupted by Lin Tian patting her shoulder.

”She can think how she pleases, we can’t control or need to explain.”

After speaking, Lin Tian looked at Li Li and laughed, ”If I’m not mistaken, since Liu Chan and his father went to Xiaocheng for these months, you’ve had a hard time, so you’re waiting for Liu Mang here today, right?”

Li Li was a woman who didn’t know how to hide her thoughts. Her startled open mouth confirmed Lin Tian’s words were correct.

”You chose today to wait for him here because you know he can’t afford to embarrass himself, and would eventually be pressured by the situation to agree to some condition. Am I right?” Lin Tian asked with a smile.

Li Li’s mouth opened wider, after a moment’s daze, she asked, ”How did you know?”

”Because I’m smart.”

”...”

Lin Tian continued, ”But I advise you to go back; seeing your spirit so poor, take a bath and get some sleep.”

”Why?”

Li Li’s emotions became agitated, she began to shout, ”His son dumped me, all those promises turned into bubbles. Do you know how I’ve lived this time? Constantly hiding, dodging people Liu Chan had offended. Look at what I’ve become, neither human nor ghost, all thanks to you and them. Shouldn’t I fight for something for myself?”

Lin Tian raised his hands and waved them, with a face full of grievance, ”Stay rational, don’t shout so loudly, several days without brushing teeth, it stinks!”

”...”

”My advice to go back is for your own good. If you make a public scene with Liu Mang today, what can you gain? Maybe a promise from him, but what kind of person is Liu Mang? A sly old fox, can your intelligence compete with his? His promises might just be empty checks, or perhaps another trap, you’ll gain nothing but leave Liu Mang resenting you too. Do you think it’s worth going through with this?”
