Chapter 223: The High School Era Comes to an End
"Who just shouted that if I scored 740, they’d die?" Lin Tian suddenly stood up, scanning the entire class.
Silence, not a single person responded.
"Oh~ Weren’t you all just so bold with your words? Now you don’t dare admit it?"
Lin Tian sneered, "In the future, if you don’t have the guts, don’t talk nonsense. Running your mouth has consequences!"
Silence, still silence.
No one spoke, and no one dared to refute.
"So, who do you think won our bet now?" Lin Tian said without naming names, but everyone knew who he was referring to.
Li Qiang stood up, knowing he had lost, but it was only when he had to shout those words that he realized how hard it was.
Especially in front of so many people.
If he had known it would turn out like this, he wouldn’t have bragged so arrogantly.
Lin Tian’s words came true; running your mouth has consequences.
"What? Dare to say it but not do it?" This time, Wu Yong couldn’t stand it and spoke up for Lin Tian.
Earlier, you, Li Qiang, were so aggressive, thinking you had won and boasting everywhere.
Now the tables have turned, and when it’s your turn, you go silent?
People are equal, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
However you treat others, others will treat you the same!
So now, there’s no one speaking up for Li Qiang.
Because everyone saw how Li Qiang questioned Lin Tian earlier.
"Who said it!" Li Qiang hesitated for a moment, looking at Lin Tian in the distance with a smile on his face.
"I’m a grandson... daddy!" Li Qiang said, his face turning pale.
"Who’s calling whom daddy?" Lin Tian wasn’t one to forgive easily.
Because with someone like Li Qiang, if he had won, he wouldn’t have let it go either.
So, since it’s done, let me make it memorable for you.
Li Qiang’s face turned increasingly unsightly; that sentence took all his courage and made him lose all face.
But now, Lin Tian was saying this.
"I shouted!" Li Qiang forced an explanation.
"Want me to repeat the bet?"
Lin Tian raised his voice, "When we bumped into each other in the exam hall, we made a bet: whoever scores lower is the grandson and must call the other ’daddy’!"
"You just said these words, let me repeat them!"
"Notice the key point is to call the other person ’daddy’!"
"Not just call ’daddy’!"
As Lin Tian spoke, Li Qiang’s face went from turning unsightly to being livid, then turned a liver color.
Anyway, his expression was poor, indicating his mood at this moment wasn’t any better.
But so what?
I’m just repeating what you said to me.
Anyway, Lin Tian had no sympathy for Li Qiang.
Frankly, Lin Tian was doing this for Li Qiang’s own good.
You have to throw that high and mighty ego and small pride to the ground, stomp on it hard, and stomp on it repeatedly, to make him realize who he is.
Rather than living in his own world, living in a dream.
With an expression like "I’m invincible in the world".
"If you’re a man, follow the bet. Usually, you think you’re good at studying and look at us underachievers with disdain. I say you deserve this!" Wu Yong interjected again.
All along, the bad students were unhappy with Li Qiang.
Today, most of the students in the class are good students, many of the bad students didn’t come.
Just to avoid watching these good students with their self-righteous attitude and the arrogance of scoring high.
At this moment, Wu Yong’s words made the few underachievers cheer loudly.
"I’m the grandson, and Lin Tian is my daddy!"
Li Qiang shouted hysterically, "Is that okay now?"
"Hmm, that’s fine!" Lin Tian replied directly to Li Qiang.
"Wu Yong, let’s go!" Since Li Qiang fulfilled his side of the bet, Lin Tian had no intention of staying any longer.
As Lin Tian walked out, shredded photos flew everywhere on the ground...
The era of dominance ended here.
Once they left the classroom, Wu Yong excitedly surrounded Lin Tian, "Damn, that really hit the spot just now!"
"Seeing Li Qiang’s miserable face, that was really satisfying!" Wu Yong became more and more excited as he spoke.
"Sob sob!"
Just then, as Lin Tian and Wu Yong had only taken a few steps away from the classroom, they heard heart-wrenching cries from behind.
They exchanged glances, and Wu Yong laughed heartily, "Haha, we even made him cry!"
"Crying is good; without it, with Li Qiang’s personality, he wouldn’t be able to survive in society in the future!" Lin Tian clicked his tongue.
"Where are you going now?" Wu Yong chased after him and asked.
"Heading to the school gate, someone is waiting for me outside!" Lin Tian pointed outside the school. After all that fiasco, at least half an hour had passed, who knows if Bai Shishi had gotten tired of waiting.
"Hello classmate, do you know which class Lin Tian is in?" As soon as the two stepped out of the teaching building, they were surrounded by a group of reporters.
"You’re looking for Lin Tian?" Wu Yong asked.
As soon as a reporter heard Wu Yong’s question, they quickly asked, "Yeah, do you know the former student from the Third Middle School, expelled and went to the First Middle School, this year’s top scorer in the unified exam, Lin Tian?"
"Of course..."
Wu Yong wanted to continue but was pinched hard on his waist by Lin Tian’s hand behind him.
Pain twisted Wu Yong’s eyebrows, and he quickly corrected himself, "Of course not!"
"Do you know which class Lin Tian was in before?"
"Senior Three Class One, you’ll see it as soon as you turn left upstairs!" Wu Yong pointed behind him.
"Thank you!"
In an instant, a swarm of reporters rushed into the teaching building like a swarm of bees.
"Why did you pinch me!" As soon as the reporters left, Wu Yong immediately rubbed his lower back, looking aggrieved.
"You’re stupid, if you say I’m here, can we still leave?" Lin Tian rolled his eyes at him, speaking in a bad mood.
With that group of reporters, even a rough glance showed over a dozen people. If they each asked a question, an hour would pass.
"True!"
"Strange, why did the reporters come to the Third Middle School to find you, shouldn’t they go to the First Middle School?" Wu Yong scratched his head, glancing at the reporters rushing to the stairs.
"Who knows what they’re up to!"
Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders; he had no interest in these interviews.
Do things high-key, live low-key, otherwise, Lin Tian wouldn’t have refused reporters’ interviews and prestigious university visits when Liou Qingcheng told him his uncle’s arrangements.
When they reached the school gate, Lin Tian saw a Mercedes parked on the roadside.
"Wait for me for a moment, I’ll go say hi!" Lin Tian told Wu Yong and walked towards the Mercedes.
He opened the car door and got in; Bai Shishi was playing a game out of boredom.
"You finally know to come back, huh?" Bai Shishi, almost falling asleep from waiting, had some complaints.
Originally, they planned to go in together, but he said he would be out soon.
Turns out, that "soon" took an hour.
"Something came up and delayed me!" Lin Tian explained.
