Chapter 36: The Woman in Tight Leather Pants
"I’m not afraid, on the contrary, I feel a bit excited!" Lin Tian’s crimson tongue licked his chapped lips, his ferocity evident!
Bai Shishi swallowed her saliva, but she was startled by Lin Tian’s words instead.
What kind of person is this exactly?
Is he a madman?
Forget about high school students, even college students would be scared to death hearing the name of the Ginseng and Astragalus Merchants Association.
Yet, look at Lin Tian, he actually... actually has the intention to go against the Ginseng and Astragalus Merchants Association?
My God, is he really not afraid? Not afraid to die?
"Boss, what’s wrong?" Seeing Bai Shishi’s expressionless face, Lin Tian asked.
"Nothing, I just zoned out for a moment!" Bai Shishi quickly recovered.
The two fell into silence, facing the awkward atmosphere, Bai Shishi was about to say goodbye to Lin Tian when suddenly her phone rang.
"Hello? What’s up?" Bai Shishi answered the call and asked.
As the call went on, Bai Shishi’s face grew increasingly grim.
"Uh-huh! I got it!" Bai Shishi hung up, her chest heaving with anger, almost popping the buttons on her shirt.
"What happened?" Lin Tian asked with concern.
"Someone is causing trouble at the tea house. I was planning to have you start work tomorrow morning, but now it seems you’ll start right away!" Bai Shishi said helplessly.
"I’ve already accepted the money, doesn’t matter when I start working, but I’m worried I won’t do a good job!" Lin Tian said humbly.
"Let’s go, come with me to the tea house!" Bai Shishi signaled Lin Tian to follow her.
In the Mercedes S400L, Xiaogang was driving, while Lin Tian and Bai Shishi sat in the back seat.
"Miss Bai, is it those foreign cheats coming again?" Xiaogang noticed Bai Shishi’s changing expression and asked as he drove.
Bai Shishi crossed her left leg over her right, absent-mindedly gazing out the window: "Yes, those foreigners have already won over a million!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaogang slapped his empty left hand hard on his thigh: "I’m afraid by the time we get back, they’ll be gone, losing us yet another couple of million!"
"I’m baffled too; every time we’re not there, they come. As soon as we leave, they leave!" Bai Shishi panted heavily, clearly very angry.
Lin Tian didn’t know the specifics, but from Bai Shishi’s words, he could gather some clues, so he casually asked: "Could someone be tipping them off?"
Bai Shishi explained: "Even if someone is tipping them off, it doesn’t matter. When we return, they wouldn’t dare leave immediately; they’ll have to play a few rounds with us!"
Lin Tian had witnessed Bai Shishi and Xiaogang’s card skills firsthand: "With your skills, are you really afraid of them?"
"Not afraid, of course, but they have three people, and we only have two. One of us can hold off one of them, but the third guy can still win money. We’ve lost a lot this way several times!" Xiaogang was the first to explain.
"Oh~ So that’s what it is!" Lin Tian understood completely.
He finally realized why Bai Shishi was willing to pay a lot to find a card sharp.
Because in a 2V3, being one person short always puts you at a disadvantage.
"Lin Tian, when we get to the tea house, Xiaogang and I will each hold one of them, and you deal with the other one. Try to see through his cheating techniques, then expose him. That way, not only can we reclaim all the money we’ve lost before, but we can also teach them a lesson!" Bai Shishi revealed her plan, which she’d been contemplating in her mind.
"Can you do it?" Bai Shishi was now worried about Lin Tian’s possible slip-up.
"No problem, I’ll ensure the task is completed smoothly!" Lin Tian blurted out without hesitation.
"Don’t be so quick to conclude. These foreigners have very clever techniques!" Xiaogang wasn’t optimistic about Lin Tian.
"Cheating techniques are each master’s secret skill, and the methods vary widely! Just because you can see through our cheating techniques doesn’t mean you can see through theirs."
Faced with Xiaogang’s reminder, Lin Tian was indifferent—what techniques, what skills? They were all nothing before his perspective!
No matter the sophisticated techniques or formidable skills, he could see through them with a glance.
Confidence is just that high!
"Anyway, the success of this plan depends on you, don’t let me down!" Facing the current situation, Bai Shishi had to place her trust in Lin Tian.
Because there was no other better way!
Initially planning to train Lin Tian for a few days, to let him familiarize himself with various cheating techniques, but who could have expected the opponents to show up so opportunely.
It was like pushing ducks onto the shelves!
Xianglong Tea House, situated in the core area of Kanyue City, was a standard ten-story building.
From the first to the sixth floor housed a company specializing in female cosmetics, named So Beautiful, which also belonged to Bai Shishi.
Floors six to ten were the Xianglong Tea House, a high-end card game room. More than a tea-drinking spot, it was a premium venue for playing cards.
Catered to the wealthy, it had complete recreational facilities, supplying everything one might need.
Naturally, the top floor’s gambling space was the most popular and lively area.
Lin Tian followed Bai Shishi to the top floor, heading straight for the surveillance room. Inside the surveillance room was a woman, wearing tight black leather pants and a tight black leather jacket, perfectly showcasing her curves.
"Ruyan, how’s the situation?" Upon entering the surveillance room, Bai Shishi immediately asked the woman seated before the surveillance screens.
The woman, referred to as Ruyan, stood up and said, "Miss Bai, three people at three tables, they’ve already won over two million!"
Lin Tian had the chance to see this beauty’s face, with no expression on her cold face, and her big, pretty eyes always carried a hint of icy menace.
Of course, most importantly, under that tight leather jacket, her two full roundness were even bigger than Bai Shishi’s.
With each of her words, she bounced along, causing one’s mind to be captivated.
"And this is?" Noticing Lin Tian’s dreamy look, a hint of disgust flashed across the woman’s face.
"Oh~ I forgot to introduce you, this is Lin Tian, a new employee I just hired today!" Bai Shishi pointed at Lin Tian and introduced.
"This is Mei Ruyan, my capable assistant. Don’t be fooled by her pretty face and sexy figure; she’s actually quite fierce when fighting!" Bai Shishi introduced the woman to Lin Tian.
"Mei Ruyan?" Lin Tian silently memorized the name.
"Lin Tian?" Mei Ruyan suddenly called out.
"What’s up?" Lin Tian asked happily, delighted at meeting another beautiful woman.
"If you ever dare to stare at my body again, I’ll gouge out your eyes!" Mei Ruyan’s voice was cold, her marked face frosty.
"Oh! Got it!" Lin Tian shrank his neck, extremely embarrassed.
Being publicly reproached by Mei Ruyan, he felt his face was hard to maintain.
"Pff!" Seeing Lin Tian’s awkward look, Bai Shishi couldn’t help but laugh.
"Boss, don’t make fun of me!" Bai Shishi’s laughter turned Lin Tian’s face red from his neck upwards.
