Chapter 574: The Plot Exposed
The three of them got back in the car, Zhou Mi and Liou Qingcheng sat in the back seat. Lin Tian naturally was the driver for the two women.
The car was running with low-temperature air conditioning, but Zhou Mi was extremely anxious at this moment, and she kept dialing the phone.
The calls she made were all to members of the Feihong Association. After all, Li Tianmu and his crew’s actions were too sudden this time, leaving them with no opportunity to react.
If Zhou Mi hadn’t run a bit faster this time, she would probably have been in danger.
Inside the car, neither Lin Tian nor Liou Qingcheng spoke, silently listening to Zhou Mi making calls to inquire about the situation.
The situation was not good; eight or nine out of ten members of the group had encountered trouble. Some had already been hospitalized, attracting the school’s attention, and the police had arrived.
After all, this ’fight’ incident was quite serious, and the police couldn’t ignore it even if they wanted to.
Some members of the Feihong Association had already gone to the hospital for treatment, so the police were already there recording statements. Conversely, there were fewer people in the dance club.
When Zhou Mi put down her phone, she leaned back in her chair, exhaled a long breath, looking quite exhausted.
"Why on earth did Li Tianmu block you guys? Now the police are involved, isn’t he asking for trouble?" Lin Tian asked, a bit puzzled.
"It’s all for the upcoming newcomer showcase," Zhou Mi replied casually.
"He could just participate directly. Why block people?" Lin Tian was at a loss, wondering if Li Tianmu’s brain had been kicked by a donkey.
"This year’s newcomer showcase is different; Jiang Pan Die will also attend. If she selects someone, they can get a great channel to debut, and their fame will rise quickly. Many talent scouts have sought out Li Tianmu before, but that guy dismisses them. Now that Jiang Pan Die is coming, he naturally wants to seize the chance to perform. By striking at this moment, he probably aims to eliminate a strong competitor and keep us off the stage."
"Such things were bound to happen sooner or later; there’s been a long-standing feud between him and me. I think he must have meticulously planned this for a long time but didn’t expect his plan to be exposed. Now with police involvement, he might face serious consequences and could even get expelled from school. There’ll be a good show to watch then."
Saying this, a devilish smile appeared on Zhou Mi’s face.
It seems like Li Tianmu is really out of luck this time; why resort to force? Besides his handsome face, it seems like he lacks brains.
Even if the matter hadn’t been exposed, and he was chosen by Jiang Pan Die to become a star, his dirty laundry would soon be aired.
Then he’d become just like the Bai Family and the Wang Family not long ago, being publicly denounced in the online world.
"How did Wang Sicong get involved with them, do you know?" Lin Tian asked.
"I actually know about this," Zhou Mi said. "This guy came to see me, saying he plans to start an entertainment company. He wants to recruit all kinds of esports experts and talented individuals with potential, packaging and grooming them into stars. Of course, I rejected him, so he probably went to Li Tianmu."
Lin Tian suddenly understood; turns out it’s because Wang Sicong ran out of money and started a different business.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that three companies of the Wang Family’s business have been taken over; those are not the core strength of the family. It’s their connections and influence built through two generations of effort that form their strongest asset. Given enough time,
they’ll quickly expand into new businesses and do it very successfully.
"Then the video I just recorded can be given to the police, right?" Liou Qingcheng asked.
"Of course, the police are lacking evidence now; we’ll just hand them a bit," Lin Tian said. "Originally, I had you record that video just to let everyone see this guy’s ugly face; didn’t expect it to be useful in this way."
"These matters can be discussed later; the most urgent thing now is to return to the dance club to assess the injuries among our members. I have a feeling this newcomer showcase isn’t that simple," Zhou Mi said.
Both of them had no objection to her words, and Lin Tian even sped up the car until they finally parked at the lot beside the arts building.
As the three of them walked into the arts building, many people were secretly observing Zhou Mi, their faces full of curiosity.
Zhou Mi has always been a prominent figure in the school, ranking third on the goddess list. If not for her tough demeanor at times, suitors would probably form a long line.
Those watching then noticed Lin Tian and Liou Qingcheng, secretly pulling out their phones to snap a few photos.
Rumors about Lin Tian’s medical skills being superior to Zhao Xuefeng’s had spread throughout the school since that class ended, though some still didn’t believe it, sparking considerable debate.
As the person involved, Lin Tian was unaware of this matter, rarely appearing at school, yet his reputation was growing.
There were even many patients who came looking for Zhao Xuefeng for treatment but were refused, so they turned to Lin Tian, although no one knew where he was.
As for why Zhao Xuefeng, known as the ’number one ancient medicine practitioner,’ wouldn’t make house calls, the reason remained unknown.
Under everyone’s gaze, the trio returned to the dance club’s hall.
The dance studio was in shambles, with seven members—three males and four females—cleaning up, but the situation was almost sorted out.
"Ms. Zhou, you’re back," a girl smiled sweetly and said.
"Xiaomiao... how did this place end up like this..." Zhou Mi’s voice was full of anger as she looked at the messy room.
"It was the Wind Snow Gang who did it, but we’re almost finished cleaning; just that the paint on the walls needs someone to redo it." She smiled sweetly.
"Our turf is in such a state and you’re laughing," Zhou Mi retorted in exasperation.
"As long as people aren’t seriously hurt, it’s fine. You see it’s messy, but a clean-up will do the trick," the girl continued.
"Not seriously hurt? So many people went to the hospital," Zhou Mi didn’t know how to respond; this girl was far too optimistic.
"It’s really nothing; they went to the hospital just to fake it, insisting on getting scanned, making Li Tianmu’s people pay up and bleed a bit."
"..." Lin Tian was speechless; clearly Zhou Mi’s crew wasn’t to be underestimated either.
"Alright, tidy up a bit and gather everyone in the dance studio. The teacher I hired should be arriving soon," Zhou Mi said.
The girl giggled again, "Mi, what kind of teacher did you hire?"
"A street dance coach; I’ve heard he’s quite famous. He won awards in the national street dance competition before. I spent a lot to hire him," Zhou Mi said proudly. "With him helping us with choreography, we’ll surely get selected by Jiang Pan Die."
