The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: Problematic Shrimp

Wu Yong’s appearance is nothing remarkable; neither ugly nor handsome, utterly ordinary, and blending into the crowd without notice. Once he passes by, it’s hard to find him again.

However, at this moment, the crew-cut man and his group of brothers have committed to memory this face, so ordinary that it can’t be more ordinary!

The person with raised fists put them down, and the one wielding a wine bottle with a desperate stance also lowered the bottle, watching Wu Yong with bated breath, their breathing cautious.

Who doesn’t know that Black Gold Security Company is virtually no different from the old Xianglong Tea House? Moreover, it’s rumored that when Du Dahai’s gang was dismantled by the police, they were the ones exerting force behind the scenes.

Though the Black Gold Security Company hasn’t done anything overtly oppressive, who would truly bring these shady dealings into the light?

If you really provoke the head of Black Gold, life in Kanyue City becomes impossible, and escaping as far as possible becomes necessary.

Of course, some have suspected Wu Yong is pretending, considering how such a significant figure could be here indulging in street food alone without any company.

But upon seeing his designer attire, such thoughts quickly dissipated. Pretending to be the boss of Black Gold is courting death, and who would dare do so?

The crew-cut man’s expression shifted dramatically; dealing with Lin Tian alone was enough of a headache, and now the head of Black Gold has appeared, leaving him utterly despondent.

”Bro-Brother Yong, I...”

Before he could finish, Wu Yong cut him off dismissively: ”I what? You think you’re worthy of calling me Brother Yong? Don’t mess around trying to cozy up to me! Cowardly and despicable, what the hell are you?!”

Recalling the troubles once caused by Lin Tian at Tonggao, Wu Yong felt pent up frustrations, and seeing the enemy now, he naturally aimed to retaliate fiercely!

Lin Tian scrutinized the crew-cut man and asked, ”What’s your name?”

”You can call me Xiaoque,” the crew-cut man replied with a forced smile.

”Xiaoque? That’s quite the name.” Lin Tian glanced at his crotch sarcastically, ”Seems to fit, doesn’t it?”

The crew-cut Xiaoque chuckled awkwardly, not daring to retort.

”Used to hang around with Du Dahai?” Lin Tian asked.

”Just grabbing a bite following him, haha, it was all a misunderstanding. You know, being such distinguished figures, please don’t take issue with us small fries, it brings you down, doesn’t it?”

Lin Tian mocked, ”You’re saying I’m petty then?”

”No, no, I wouldn’t dare,” Xiaoque replied, waving his hands frantically.

At this moment, the lady boss came out holding a bottle of Red Star Erguotou, addressing Lin Tian, ”Sir, maybe let this matter drop?”

Lin Tian took the Erguotou from her and shook his head with a grin, ”I am petty like that, can’t drop it!”

Crack.

The cap was twisted off and tossed onto the ground, Lin Tian handed the Erguotou to Xiaoque, saying, ”Chug it down in one go, and the past will be behind us.”

Xiaoque’s gaze fixated on the Erguotou bottle, the intense scent wafting over even from afar.

”Que, let me!” one of Xiaoque’s brothers exclaimed, reaching out to snatch the bottle from Lin Tian.

A shadow rushed over as Wu Yong took two running steps and delivered a kick to the man’s shoulder, sending him flying back while cursing, ”Do you get to speak here?!”

He sneered afterward, enjoying the sight of these men both angry and fearful, knowing their fists were useless. Would they dare to strike?

Xiaoque’s expression was extremely bitter, he took a deep breath and said ”Alright” solemnly, then grabbed the bottle, tilted it to his mouth, and gulped vigorously.

The lady boss frowned tightly watching from the side; this was brutal.

What’s the difference between chugging beer and chugging Erguotou?

One is refreshing, the other is intensely fiery, burning down one’s throat layer by layer, heating the nasal passages almost to breathlessness. Erguotou is known for its fragrant aroma and smooth entrance, but Xiaoque felt none of this and didn’t dare spill a drop, his nose bubbling from the near-inhaled alcohol.

He knew once he finished the bottle, he’d be past today’s ordeal. Failing to please the two before him, who knows what else might happen next?

Finally, the bottle was drained of every last drop. Xiaoque flipped the bottle mouth down, his face rapidly reddening.

”Burp~”

A boozy belch escaped him, his chest filled with the strong alcohol scent, Erguotou’s potency starting to engulf him, barely coherent he asked, ”Ti-Tian, can we leave now?”

Lin Tian shook his head with a smile.

”You!” Perhaps stirred by a little drunkenness, Xiaoque’s anger broke loose, shouting loudly, ”What the hell do you want?!”

Smack!

Lin Tian delivered a sharp slap, scolding, ”You already ordered a whole table’s worth of stuff and thought you could walk out without paying?!”

Xiaoque cupping his face remained silent, feeling the grievance! When did he say he wouldn’t pay?!

”How much!” Xiaoque asked, still holding his face, turning to the lady boss.

The lady boss checked the bill and replied, ”Three hundred seventy, let’s call it three hundred fifty.”

”Pay!”

Soon after, someone took out their wallet, at which point Lin Tian said, ”Three hundred fifty is too little, make it eight hundred, that’s a auspicious number.”

Xiaoque glanced at Lin Tian, extremely unwilling, asked ”Why?!”

”Why? With all that disturbance interrupting their business, is charging you eight hundred too much?!” Lin Tian’s eyes flashed a fierce light.

Xiaoque held back cursing, yet felt compelled to accept the loss! He signaled a nearby person, and someone drew out eight red bills slipping them into the lady boss’s hand.

Lin Tian, satisfied, waved them away, a group trailing Xiaoque, drunk almost to his limits, briskly made away, but Lin Tian called again, ”Wait!”

They paused once more, their grievance high but kept it contained.

Lin Tian said, ”Remember, if you want revenge, come for me; leave this place out of it. Trouble here, and face the consequences yourselves! Now scram!”

Many voiced their agreement, hurriedly leaving, afraid Lin Tian would hold them further.

”Tch, what a bunch of useless idiots.” Wu Yong loudly laughed, his mood as bright as the weather.

Lin Tian patted his shoulder and joked, ”Stop boasting, just a bunch of minnows. Nothing but a scare does them.”

”Heh, Tian, you really believe they’re just minnows? You’re definitely a hands-off boss.” Wu Yong chuckled wryly.

”Hmm?” Lin Tian paused, asking, ”What? Is there more to them?”

”Of course there is, big issues at that!” Wu Yong answered.
