Chapter 127: Fight Breaks Out! freeweɓnovel.cѳm

[Ding~! Due to the host’s undermining strategy, the protagonist’s business development is forced to stagnate. Lin Tian’s protagonist’s luck is reduced by 20%, and the host gets two chances to draw from the Emperor’s Treasure Chest.].

After leaving the office, Zhao Yanyan hesitated for a long while but ultimately decided not to call Zhao Tiande.

She felt that as the manager of this store, it was her responsibility to handle the situation. Calling her father might be helpful, but it wouldn’t aid in her own growth.

Su Lin, looking serious, exited Zhao Yanyan’s office, ready to help the workers demand their wages.

He had a plan in mind, which was to make Lin Tian ‘accidentally die.’ Lin Tian’s luck wasn’t high, and Su Lin believed there might be a chance to eliminate him.

“Su Lin, are you going to help those workers demand their wages?”

Hearing Xia Shiyu’s voice, Su Lin stopped, “Yes, I promised them I would help.”

“But we don’t know who we’re dealing with. What if they are dangerous people?”

Su Lin, placing his hands on Xia Shiyu’s shoulders, reassured her with a smile, “Dangerous people? Maybe, but you stay here at the supermarket. I’ll be back soon, okay?”

Xia Shiyu expressed her concern, “I want to go with you.”

“That’s not possible. As you said, if there are indeed bad people, I might be able to escape alone, but what if you’re there? Should I leave you behind? Stay here; I’ll be fine with all these workers with me.”

Xia Shiyu, understanding she couldn’t really assist Su Lin, reluctantly agreed, “Okay, but come back soon.”

“Heh! Don’t worry, I’ll be back quickly.”

Downstairs, Liu Da and a group of workers were already waiting, looking doubtful, “Can this young guy really help us get our wages?”

“He looks too tender to do anything; I doubt it.”

“I doubt it too, Brother Da, how could you believe he could help us?”

Liu Da replied with a wry smile, “I thought Su Boss would send someone to help us. I didn’t expect him to go personally.”

“We better watch out, if something happens to the boss, we won’t be able to stay in Donghai.”

All the workers nodded in agreement. Demanding wages was common, but if Su Lin got hurt, they would struggle to find work in Donghai.

Meanwhile, in the arcade, several gang leaders stood before Lin Tian. Lin Tian pulled out a stack of money, “Continue this afternoon, but make it more intense, understand?”

“I have the money. How you do it is up to you. Even if it leads to a fatality, it doesn’t matter. You should know the instructions from Uncle Lou, and you won’t be shortchanged.”

The thugs, experienced in such matters, were pleased with the money. They had earned twenty thousand just for acting in the morning. Causing a fatality would definitely bring in more.

“Don’t worry, Brother Tian. We’ll make sure Quan Le Gou can’t open for a week.”

“Make it a month. They shouldn’t open for at least a month.”

“If we get taken to the police station, you know we have more experience dealing with the police than you, right? You don’t need to worry.”

The thugs shivered a bit, not afraid of Lin Tian but wary of Luo Sihai, known for his ruthlessness. In this novel world, the power of such tycoons could influence the police.

“Don’t worry, Brother Tian. We have plenty of experience dealing with the police. They won’t get anything out of us.”

“Good, people introduced by Uncle Luo are definitely reliable.”

As they were talking, Lin Tian saw Su Lin and a group of workers approaching from the glass wall. Su Lin was leading, followed by Liu Da, with familiar faces from their hometown looking honest and straightforward.

Frowning, Lin Tian opened the door and stepped out to confront them.

Su Lin’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Lin Tian, contemplating how to kill him without getting caught.

Lin Tian, sensing a hint of murderous intent, felt alarmed. It was an intangible sensation, purely instinctual, but he knew his intuition wasn’t wrong.

Internally cursing, Lin Tian thought, it’s just tripping each other up in business, why suddenly escalate to killing? He started to suspect that perhaps it wasn’t Su Zhenguo who had killed his father, but Su Lin himself. Once this thought took hold, it lingered in his mind.

As Lin Tian considered his options, he glanced at the gangsters beside him. These experienced brawlers from Donghai City had been in numerous fights and even prison.

Most importantly, they were greedy for money. If Su Lin wanted to kill him, Lin Tian thought of killing Su Lin first. A crazy idea began to form – he could use this opportunity to eliminate Su Lin.

His intuition told him that his father’s death was connected to Su Lin. Whether it was true or not didn’t matter now; he would blame Su Lin regardless.

“We’ve come today to settle the wages from the past few days,” Su Lin declared.

Lin Tian’s face darkened as he coldly responded, “I’ve already said, if you leave, you get nothing. You made your choice, so there’s no money for you today.”

After speaking, Lin Tian signaled the gangsters. They understood his gesture and turned their attention to Su Lin.

Su Lin, sensing the tension, realized that Lin Tian was planning a counter-attack. “Let’s see how this plays out,” he thought.

Liu Da, still hoping for a peaceful resolution, said, “Mr. Lin, our wages for four days amount to over nine thousand yuan. We won’t leave without it.”

Lin Tian scoffed, “I already said no. Scarface, I have things to handle. Show them out.”

A scarred man stepped forward, sneering at Su Lin, “I hate pretty boys. Scram while I’m in a good mood, or I’ll scar your face.”

Su Lin responded with a slight smile, “Try scarring my face and see if Luo Sihai dares to do the same.”

Scarface, puzzled, eyed Su Lin. These old thugs from Donghai City had a knack for sizing people up. Scarface became anxious, looking towards Lin Tian for guidance.

Lin Tian signaled with two fingers. Understanding the signal, Scarface’s expression turned fierce.

Thinking, “What do I have to fear with money on my side? He’s just another rich kid.”

“I don’t care who you are. You asked for this,” Scarface growled, picking up a chair to smash at Su Lin.

Before Su Lin could react, the chair was caught by a black hand. Then, to his surprise, a group of workers charged forward. He hadn’t expected these laborers to be so fierce, diving straight into the fray.

“Damn, you dare to rebel?”

“Ah! Damn it…” freewebnøvel.coɱ

The workers, strong from their laborious jobs, overwhelmed Scarface and the others with their sheer physical strength. A slap on the face left them dazed and buzzing.

Liu Da pushed through to Lin Tian, “Mr. Lin, I’m asking you one last time: are you going to pay or not?”
