Suppressing the Protagonist at the Start to Seize the Heroine-Chapter 107
Chapter 107: Lin Tian’s Realization, Su Lin’s Tactics
“Yanyan, I really did come here to shop, you say I’m following you, but how could I? I don’t even know where you are in Donghai. How could I follow you? I can buy something right now to show you, okay?” Lin Tian explained helplessly to Zhao Yanyan.
Zhao Yanyan looked at Lin Tian doubtfully, wondering if he really was there to shop: “Alright, what do you want to buy? I’ll accompany you after notifying my friend.”
She remembered Su Lin and Lin Xiawan, but when she looked up, they were gone. She saw a text from Lin Xiawan (actually written by Su Lin) saying they were waiting outside, and if she couldn’t make it, they would head to the apartment.
Zhao Yanyan decided to let Su Lin and Lin Xiawan go ahead while she dealt with Lin Tian.
Lin Tian, seeing Zhao Yanyan texting, shook his head and approached a stall to buy the Yuan blue and white porcelain he had seen earlier, only to find it missing.
“Boss… where is that Yuan blue and white porcelain?” Lin Tian asked urgently.
The shrewd stall owner recalled Lin Tian and responded, “Young man, all of these are Yuan blue and white porcelains. Just pick any you like.”
“I’m talking about that one,” Lin Tian pointed to where the porcelain had been.
“Ah, that one? It’s been sold,” the owner replied.
He was secretly pleased, as he had sold the somewhat old-looking porcelain with a yellowing mouth to Su Lin for 3,000 yuan without haggling. He thought Su Lin was just a spendthrift young master.
“Sold… How much did you sell it for?”
“Can’t disclose that, it’s against the rules,” the owner said cautiously.
“My Yuan blue and white porcelain, you actually sold it…”
“Are you buying or not? If you want Yuan blue and white porcelain, this whole stall is full of them. Stop bothering me, it’s bad for business,” the owner said dismissively.
Lin Tian, realizing he missed his opportunity, felt his heart bleed. He knew many ways to get rich, but the first pot of gold from the Yuan blue and white porcelain was a tempting shortcut.
“Lin Tian, didn’t you say you were going to buy something? Where is your purchase?” Zhao Yanyan looked at Lin Tian with an unfriendly expression, feeling she had been wronged.
She thought Lin Tian really came to shop, but he returned empty-handed after a few words at a stall.
Frustrated, Zhao Yanyan felt like Lin Tian had played her for a fool. Lin Tian, realizing if it weren’t for her, he would have been able to buy the Yuan blue and white porcelain.
“No more words? Not going to explain?” she demanded.
“I…” Lin Tian gestured, “Yanyan, I’m going back.”
“Hah, follow if you want, and just leave when you’re done? You think there’s no cost to making mistakes?” Zhao Yanyan questioned him.
“I’m really going back, Yanyan, don’t worry, I won’t bother you anymore,” Lin Tian replied.
“Really?”
“Really!!”
“You better not be lying, or don’t expect me to speak to you ever again,” Zhao Yanyan said coldly.
Lin Tian, realizing Zhao Yanyan didn’t like him, thought as a reborn person, he shouldn’t be chasing after someone uninterested.
He could attract plenty of beautiful women and build a big company anytime. Understanding these key points, Lin Tian felt relieved and left.
Zhao Yanyan watched Lin Tian leave, relieved and excited about her newfound freedom. “Tomorrow, I can finally live normally. Donghai, here I start my career!”
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully intercepting the protagonist’s first pot of gold. Lin Tian’s luck has been reduced by one-tenth. The host has received one chance to draw from the Emperor’s Treasure Box.].
Meanwhile, Su Lin, having received Zhao Yanyan’s reply, left with Lin Xiaowan in his car to Zhao Yanyan’s apartment. Upon receiving the keys, they went upstairs.
“Su Lin, is this really a Yuan blue and white porcelain worth tens of millions?” Lin Xiawan excitedly asked, holding the vase.
“I’m not sure of its exact value, but it’s definitely worth more than just a few million. Tens of millions should be no problem,” Su Lin responded.
“Wow! How did you know how to identify it?”
Su Lin raised an eyebrow: “You want to know how?”
Lin Xiawan nodded eagerly like a pecking chicken: “Yes.”
Su Lin leaned close to Lin Xiawan’s ear and said, “Then stay tonight~!!”
“But I can’t, I need to go to my aunt’s house. If I don’t, she will definitely call my parents. What should I do if they call and ask?” Lin Xiawan asked, somewhat flustered.
“Hehe, that’s easy. Just say you didn’t go to Donghai and stayed at home.”
“But I’ve already told them I’m in Donghai.”
“Then say that work in Donghai requires your attention. Your dad already knows you’re working at Yulin Company and managing the supermarket with me. Use that as an excuse, they won’t have much to say.” Su Lin chuckled.
Lin Xiawan rolled her eyes at him: “Every time there’s something like this, your mind always works the fastest.”
“Hehe, Xiawan, I just don’t want to be separated from you.” As he spoke, Su Lin sat on the bed, hugging Lin Xiawan’s thighs.
“Umm~!! What if they don’t let me go out later?”
“Don’t worry, father-in-law will let you out.”
“Do you have a way?”
Su Lin nodded: “I do.”
“Then let’s agree, just for tonight, and tomorrow… tomorrow I really need to go to my aunt’s,” Lin Xiawan tried to convince Su Lin.
Su Lin chuckled: “If you’re already staying over, why go to your aunt’s? Isn’t my bed warm enough?”
“Warm? It’s so hot, it’s practically boiling.”
“Hehe…” With a swift pull, Lin Xiawan found herself sitting on his lap: “Xiaowan… I’m a bit tired, help me with a massage?”
“Okay… you go lie down on the bed.”
“OK.”
In the time it took Lin Xiaowan to wash her hands, Su Lin was already lying shirtless on the bed.
“Su Lin, could you be any faster at changing clothes?”
“Hehe, you know my real talent isn’t changing clothes,” Su Lin said with a laugh.
“Hmph… that’s not a talent, it’s a bad habit!!!”
