Chapter 255: Fighting Violence with Violence
Mei Ruyan searched through all the pockets on Qingchuan, and indeed, as he said, she couldn’t find a phone.
"Do you believe me now?" Qingchuan smiled.
"Have you finished asking your questions?"
"Yes!" Qingchuan nodded: "So, are you going to kill me next?"
"Those who are not of our race must have different intentions!"
A sinister and cruel expression appeared on Lin Tian’s face: "Moreover, you’re a Sakula Country person who has done all kinds of bad things on our Celestial Dragon Continent, so it’s impossible to let you leave Celestial Dragon Continent alive!"
"I expected this result!" To this, Qingchuan responded with just a nonchalant smile: "How could I, a proud warrior, be someone who craves life and fears death?"
When Lin Tian heard this, he couldn’t contain himself: "Oh~ still so arrogant! Then I’ll make it quick for you!"
With that, Lin Tian took out a dagger intending to finish off Qingchuan.
"Wait a minute!" Bai Shishi and Mei Ruyan almost simultaneously spoke up to stop Lin Tian.
"Why?" Lin Tian looked at the two women with a confused expression.
"If you kill him here, you’ll only invite trouble!" Bai Shishi explained.
"So, according to Miss Bai, we should let him go?"
"Of course not, if we must kill him, we should find some remote place to do it!" Mei Ruyan interjected at the right moment.
"I understand!"
Lin Tian nodded thoughtfully: "I’ll leave this matter to Miss Bai to find someone to handle it; I’m not mobile!"
Currently, Lin Tian’s legs are almost useless, making walking difficult, let alone running somewhere remote to deal with Qingchuan.
"I’ll find someone to handle this!" Mei Ruyan volunteered.
Next, Mei Ruyan found someone to take Qingchuan away, planning to find a place to deal with him.
As for Lin Tian, he went with Bai Shishi to her office to rest temporarily.
Just as they entered the office, they heard the ringing of a phone.
Hearing the phone ring, Lin Tian instinctively checked his pants pocket, thinking it was his phone.
But upon closer listening, it turned out to be Bai Shishi’s phone ringing.
Bai Shishi took her phone out of her bag, and, looking at the caller’s name, she was momentarily stunned and hesitated to answer the call.
"Why aren’t you answering?" Out of curiosity, Lin Tian glanced at the phone screen.
When he saw the large characters "Bai Jiaming" on the screen, Lin Tian immediately understood what was going on.
What could Bai Jiaming be calling about?
It’s definitely not to care about Bai Shishi’s affairs!!!
Bai Shishi was kidnapped, and this guy is thinking about taking over the Xianglong Tea House, someone so devoid of family love and focused only on money, how is he different from a viper?
Bai Shishi tried to calm down, speaking softly: "Hello, Jiaming!"
"Sis!"
Bai Jiaming asked with apparent concern: "I heard you were kidnapped before, I only found out today, are you okay?!"
"I’m okay, blessed people have their own fortunes!" Bai Shishi said with her mouth, though her heart thought otherwise: "I bet you were hoping something would happen to me, weren’t you?"
"I’m glad you’re okay!" Bai Jiaming shifted the topic: "Sis, I came from home, I’m in Kanyue City, why don’t you teach me the Xianglong Tea House business?"
"And then you’re preparing to take over Xianglong Tea House?" Bai Shishi snorted coldly.
"Haha~ Sis, you really don’t know how to phrase things!"
Bai Jiaming chuckled: "What do you mean by take over? We both have the surname Bai, we belong to the Bai Family, I’m just managing the business for the Bai Family, just like how you’re managing the business for the Bai Family now!"
Managing and handling, highlighting the feudal and rotten family rules of the Bai Family so vividly.
Bai Shishi was almost infuriated to death by this statement, her chest heaving, even her breathing became heavier.
"Sis, don’t be angry... it’s not good for your health!"
Bai Jiaming paused, then continued: "This is the rule passed down by the ancestors of the Bai Family, you’ll have to accept it sooner or later, why not accept it sooner?"
"Anything else?" Bai Shishi’s tone turned icy.
"Nope!" Bai Jiaming smiled slightly.
"Maybe one day if I see things differently, I’ll give you Xianglong Tea House! I’m driving, chat later!" Bai Shishi found an excuse to hang up.
This feeling is like someone coming to snatch your own child or cherished woman, extremely unpleasant!
"Is he trying to take Xianglong Tea House again?" Seeing Bai Shishi flushed with anger, Lin Tian immediately knew what was going on.
"Yes!" Bai Shishi’s eyes reddened, almost about to cry.
Why is it that other people’s brothers are so wonderful, but she ended up with such a brother?
"Miss Bai, don’t cry!"
Lin Tian approached Bai Shishi: "Since the Bai Family’s rules are such a hassle, why stay with the Bai Family?"
"What do you mean?" Bai Shishi frowned, glancing at Lin Tian.
"You know what the Bai Family’s rules are like!"
Lin Tian smiled slightly: "Since you can’t change the family rules, why not just leave the Bai Family? Then, Xianglong Tea House wouldn’t have to go to Bai Jiaming?"
"It’s easy to say, leaving the Bai Family means completely breaking away from them!" Bai Shishi felt Lin Tian was speaking nonsense; it’s not that she hadn’t considered this solution before, and if feasible, she would’ve done it already.
But once she leaves the Bai Family, she won’t be part of them anymore, won’t be able to enter their premises, a place where she was born and raised, and she’ll never be able to return.
Truth be told, Bai Shishi doesn’t want to leave the Bai Family!
If she wanted to leave the Bai Family, she would’ve done it already!
So when Lin Tian proposed this idea, she didn’t take it to heart.
"Actually, there’s a way you can both remain with the Bai Family and have them not be able to say anything!" Lin Tian spoke mysteriously.
"Really?" Bai Shishi was half-skeptical, "Are you sure you’re not playing with me?"
Lin Tian looked serious: "You’re a woman, there’s a unique advantage to that!"
"What advantage does being a woman have?"
Bai Shishi gave Lin Tian a sideways glance, irritably saying: "Being born in a family like this, sometimes I really wish I were a man!"
"Don’t say that!" Lin Tian said calmly: "In ancient times, women would take the surname of the man they married. Even in modern society, it’s like this. If you marry me, you can be called Madam Lin!"
"To put it bluntly, when a woman marries a man, she becomes part of the man’s family, isn’t that correct?"
Lin Tian’s words were like a bright beacon, helping Bai Shishi, the small boat that lost its course, to find her direction again.
"You make it sound reasonable!" Though Lin Tian’s explanation was simple, Bai Shishi immediately grasped the deeper meaning behind it.
"Though my suggestion may sound feudal, the Bai Family’s rules are equally feudal; fighting fire with fire is the best way to solve the problem!"
Lin Tian sneered: "This way, surely the Bai Family can’t say anything. If you’re not a Bai, then Xianglong Tea House doesn’t have to be inherited by the Bai males, meaning the Bai Family rules become void!"
