Chapter 647: The Perfect Wife
"Black Impermanence, I’ve long heard of your name." Lin Tian sneered, "So you’re kidnapping my woman because Du Dahai is in my hands?"
"You could say that. We’ve been investigating you for a long time. We found out you’re very close with this woman, and there are no bodyguards around you. Who else would we kidnap?" Black Impermanence chuckled.
"The purpose is to make me release Du Dahai?"
"Exactly. Tonight at eight, bring Du Dahai to Qiushui Park by yourself. Then, use him to exchange for your woman. It’s a fair deal, right?" Black Impermanence said. "Before that, I’ll ensure her safety. But you also have to behave. Just you and Du Dahai. If I see a second person, you can go to the underworld and reunite with your woman."
"Okay." Lin Tian agreed.
"Also, don’t try to contact or locate me. You won’t be able to. I’ll contact you, so keep your phone’s sound on."
With that, the call ended.
Lin Tian held his phone in silence, his mind racing with thoughts.
First, this matter shouldn’t be related to the Wang Family. Because Du Dahai was released by them, they wouldn’t need to go to such lengths.
Also, the transaction location is definitely not Qiushui Park. At night, it’s a bustling place with people walking and doing square dancing.
The reason Black Impermanence mentioned this place is to prevent me from deploying in advance. Surely, they’ll have me transfer to another place.
This guy is as cunning as a fox.
Then, another question emerged in Lin Tian’s mind.
Why is Du Dahai, who has fallen so low, still valuable enough for Black and White Impermanence to make such a large detour?
Could there be a secret about Du Dahai?
Soon, Lin Tian remembered what Xu Ning’an had told him before. She investigated and found that Du Dahai was related to her mother’s death. Tian Ming had been tasked to interrogate him about it, but Lin Tian hadn’t concerned himself with the results.
The situation became increasingly complicated. Lin Tian couldn’t believe that the other side was only about Du Dahai.
Lin Tian even remembered once attending Du Dahai’s banquet with Bai Shishi, where Black Impermanence was present. A young man in white clothes, at the time, Lin Tian didn’t know he was Black Impermanence. Bai Shishi told him later.
Lin Tian felt it was necessary to ask Bai Shishi about this matter. He dropped Qiao Gaoshan’s phone and was about to leave vigorously.
"Hey! What about the prescription for strengthening the body you promised me?" Qiao Gaoshan shouted from behind Lin Tian.
Lin Tian turned back, showing a fox-like smile, "I have the prescription, and many. But I’ve now changed my mind."
With that, Lin Tian walked out.
As he walked out the door, he saw two uniformed security guards running over. Seeing Lin Tian, they asked, "What happened in the room just now? Why did someone scream so miserably?"
Lin Tian smiled, "Nothing much, just a father and son inside having a fight. Why don’t you go in and take a look?"
The guards, hearing this, said "Thanks" and then ran into the ward.
Lin Tian headed down to the lobby of Yongxing Hospital and then called Bai Shishi, asking, "Shishi, where are you now?"
"Nonsense, of course in the office. Do you think I’m like you, idling around all day? I’m so busy every day that I barely have time to sleep," Bai Shishi complained as soon as she picked up the phone.
Lin Tian chuckled, "Well, I’m coming up to see you now, see you soon."
Then he flagged down a car and headed to Xianglong Tea House.
Bai Shishi was an old rival of Du Dahai. It was definitely wise to ask Bai Shishi about Du Dahai first.
Familiar with the way, Lin Tian arrived at Bai Shishi’s office. He knocked twice on the frosted glass door before entering when he heard Bai Shishi say ’Come in’.
Bai Shishi was indeed quite busy, as evidenced by the number of folders on her desk, piled up like a small mountain.
At that moment, Bai Shishi was using a Montblanc pen to review documents. Without looking up, she said, "You’re here."
Lin Tian’s anxious mood suddenly eased a lot upon seeing Bai Shishi.
"How did you know it was me? You didn’t even look at me," Lin Tian asked.
Bai Shishi kept writing and said, "Your footsteps are particularly annoying, easy to recognize. Why would I need to look at your face?"
Lin Tian smiled faintly, enjoying the mutual understanding.
He made himself comfortable, sprawling on the office couch, watching Bai Shishi’s focused expression.
Suddenly, Bai Shishi’s pen stopped. She looked up at Lin Tian.
"Why did you stop writing?" Lin Tian asked.
"With you staring at me like that, how can I concentrate on those things?" Bai Shishi cast him a sweet, reproachful glance before standing up and walking over.
She sat on the sofa opposite Lin Tian, crossed her legs, and leaned back, sighing with fatigue. "You, since getting your education and girlfriend, don’t even visit me. Why did you come today?"
Even a fool could hear the jealousy in her voice. Lin Tian laughed, "You make me sound like a heartless man. Been busy lately?"
Bai Shishi nodded from the couch, "Yes, I’m quite exhausted. It’s busier now with Qiansimei doing so well. The products made from your prescriptions sell out instantly, and we can’t keep up with the orders."
"And with those three companies we got from the Wang Family, if not for reliable people helping me, I’d be overwhelmed. Meanwhile, you go to school, date, and recently became the focus at a medical summit."
Lin Tian chuckled, "It’s busy indeed, but aren’t you making more money than before?"
Bai Shishi glanced sideways at him, "No matter how much money, isn’t a part of it yours? I used to be your boss, now it’s like I’m your employee."
Truth be told, Lin Tian never sought that money. It was Bai Shishi who insisted on giving him shares. Lin Tian hadn’t even checked how much was in his account, though it must be astronomical.
Lin Tian laughed softly, then stood up and walked behind Bai Shishi.
"What are you doing?" Bai Shishi watched Lin Tian warily.
"You’re not my employee; you’re my supportive partner. Seeing you exhausted, let me give you a shoulder rub. Our engagement isn’t far off, right?"
Placing his hands on her shoulders, feeling her smooth skin, Lin Tian’s fingers started gently massaging.
