Chapter 428: Chapter 427: Entire Fortune

"Brother Zhou, what do you think of those two women?" Lin Tian asked with an inexplicable smile.

Zhou Botong nodded subconsciously and said, "I have to say, they’re quite impressive."

"Good, in a moment, you go and tease those two women," Lin Tian said abruptly.

Zhou Botong couldn’t believe his ears and repeated, "Tease... them? Brother, don’t set me up. I am loyal to Ou Mengmeng and would never do such a thing."

Lin Tian looked at him with contempt. This guy, clearly afraid of Ou Mengmeng, still tried to paint himself as a good man.

"Brother Zhou, Qi Dapeng even announces when he’s going to the restroom. Haven’t you noticed that he’s saying it for someone else to hear? And here, he only knows me; he’s looking for me," Lin Tian analyzed. It seems Qi Dapeng couldn’t come directly, so he took a chance at the bar but ended up running into us.

"Damn, he doesn’t need to go to the restroom to look for you..." Zhou Botong was about to scorn Lin Tian but suddenly realized something and said in surprise, "You mean your two women are problematic, and Qi Dapeng doesn’t want them to know about your conversation."

Not bad, Zhou Botong managed to figure that out despite not knowing much about the Japanese.

"We are here on serious business, not to mess around. Ou Mengmeng won’t blame you," Lin Tian said righteously, but then he sighed regretfully, "Forget it, if you won’t go, I’ll go myself. It’s just a pity, you know. I heard that Japanese women have even milder temperaments than sheep."

Hearing that the beauties were submissive, Zhou Botong’s eyes brightened, and he hurriedly said, "Hey, Brother Lin, don’t rush. Who said I won’t go? Since you’ve asked, I must stand by my brother unflinchingly, through thick and thin, come what may..."

"Stop the nonsense and move. Try to stall for as much time as you can. Be careful yourself. If Qi Dapeng is distracted by two women, you must handle your approach well, or don’t complain if you get hit," Lin Tian said, tired of his bombast. With that, he headed towards the restroom at the back of the hall.

Arriving outside the men’s restroom, two Japanese women were standing at the door, appearing very meek. Even as Lin Tian walked past, the two women didn’t glance at him.

Damn, they really could act, Lin Tian sneered inwardly, but he also pretended not to see them and casually walked into the men’s restroom.

After he had passed, the two women looked at each other, thinking of following him, but then a voice stopped them.

"Hey, two beauties, I think I’ve seen you somewhere before..."

Inside, Lin Tian heard Zhou Botong’s opening line and couldn’t help but laugh at how clumsy it was. He definitely lacked practice flirting with women due to Ou Mengmeng keeping him on a tight leash.

Lin Tian didn’t bother with him further, walked through the washing area, and entered the restroom. Meanwhile, Qi Dapeng wasn’t really using the restroom but was pacing back and forth, his face filled with anxiety. He only stopped and breathed a little easier when he saw Lin Tian come in.

"I thought you weren’t coming in..." Qi Dapeng said.

Lin Tian gestured with his hand to stop him from continuing, then turned around and turned on all the water switches inside the restroom, filling the space with the sound of rushing water.

"Boss Qi, long time no see. How’s your recovery from the last time? You seem to be doing well, hanging out in a bar with two beauties in the middle of the day," Lin Tian said nonchalantly, smiling.

If it were the old Qi Dapeng, he would’ve lost his temper if someone he had issues with dared speak to him that way, but this time he clearly wasn’t in the mood to get angry.

"Two beautiful ladies? Whoever wants them, I’ll give them away for free!" Qi Dapeng said, very annoyed. He wanted to speak loudly but feared that people outside might hear, so he lowered his voice and said, "I heard that these two Japanese women were originally meant for you, but Boss Lin saw through it and didn’t accept them. They are better skilled than I am, not ordinary women at all."

"Isn’t that great, having two more competent assistants?" Lin Tian still smiled.

"Assistants my ass!" Qi Dapeng cursed explosively, muttering lowly, "They’re here to monitor me, sticking to me every second, whether I eat, drink, or use the bathroom."

"Then why did you accept them in the first place?" Lin Tian asked curiously.

"I didn’t want to. We martial artists should not indulge in pleasures of the flesh, why would I bring them here just to be an eyesore." Qi Dapeng shook his head and sighed, "It was Futian Yizhi who said to send them to assist me with my work, and the two women have been following me since, unshakeable."

"To assist in your work as President Qi?" Lin Tian asked deliberately.

"Since you put it that way, it means you also know about Rizhao Group buying out my company," Qi Dapeng said.

"This is what I don’t understand. Rumor has it you despise the Japanese, so why would you sell the company?" Lin Tian raised his biggest question.

"The rumor isn’t wrong, I do indeed despise the Japanese. But a while ago, my son got mixed up with that Futian Shenyi and the Bai Family young man, taking a trip to Japan. After he returned, he suddenly contracted a bizarre illness. Neither Jinghua City nor Zhonghai City’s medical facilities could handle it, they couldn’t even figure out what it was. Only the Japanese could alleviate his condition. Their terms for prolonging my son’s life were for me to sell the company to them, yet I haven’t seen a dime," Qi Dapeng gritted his teeth as he spoke.

From his tone, Qi Dapeng was clearly reluctant and disgruntled, but between the company and his son, he chose to save his son. Apparently, the Qi Family had only one son, Mr. Qi. If Mr. Qi were to die, the Qi Family lineage would end, a situation considered graver than any other by the people of Huaxia.

However, Lin Tian was rather sarcastic to himself, certain that Qi Dapeng, being devoted to martial arts and less interested in women, had neglected his wife as well, hence having only one son.

"Isn’t it too coincidental? Haven’t you suspected that when you were abroad, the Japanese played tricks?" Lin Tian frowned and said.

"How could I not suspect, but suspicion is useless without evidence; it doesn’t help to say anything, so I want to seek your help," Qi Dapeng looked at Lin Tian expectantly.

However, Lin Tian shook his head and said, "You could choose to report to the police or seek help from old friends, like the Bai Family. You’ve always had a good relationship with them."

"If my son’s illness was inflicted deliberately, going to the police could harm him. As for the Bai Family, huh, they have close dealings with Rizhao Group, it would be good enough if the Bai Family doesn’t betray me," Qi Dapeng huffed, holding a lot of dismay towards the Bai Family.

"But I’ve had issues with you before. Isn’t it odd that you aren’t turning to old friends but instead coming to me?" Lin Tian said indifferently.

"That was just a blunder caused by an ignorant young dog, at the end of the day we don’t really have any issues. Among the people I know, only you have the capability. And by a martial artist’s intuition, I trust you more than any of my old friends," Qi Dapeng said affirmatively, then suddenly knelt on one knee and cupped his fists towards Lin Tian, "I beseech Brother Lin to help, I, Qi Dapeng, am willing to give my entire fortune in return!"

A man’s knees are as precious as gold; Qi Dapeng kneeling like this meant he was all in. And kneeling on one knee with a fist salutation is the highest respect a martial artist can express.

Had it been someone else, they might have agreed impulsively, but Lin Tian’s mind was clear, and he calmly said, "You’ve already given your entire fortune to the Japanese, what fortune is left to give?"
