Chapter 500: Chapter 497: Surrender

Xiao Manxuan looked at him and giggled, saying, "It’s not written as ’pervert,’ but as ’big pervert!’"

Big pervert? Lin Tian felt like a crow flew over his head. Just because I’m a bit handsome, do they have to hold me in such high regard?

He looked towards Ning Luoxi, hoping that the fair Instructor Ning could offer a correct assessment.

"Let’s go, where do you live? I’ll go with you, I have something to ask you later," Ning Luoxi simply glanced at him calmly and said before turning around toward the parking lot. However, as she turned, she murmured under her breath, "Big pervert."

It just so happened that Lin Tian, whose hearing was exceptionally good, caught those three words and was left speechless, only able to lament that it’s really not easy being an honest person these days.

Lin Tian cleaned the dust off himself and also headed to the parking lot. He didn’t have a car and could only temporarily use Ning Luoxi’s car for the ride.

Before setting off, Lin Tian made a call to confirm Qi Dapeng’s location, then had Ning Luoxi drive there.

Ever since the cure from the Gu, Mr. Qi had been unconscious, which was normal given how the Soul-devouring Gu had depleted much of his vital energy. It would take some time for him to fully recover.

However, the Qi family was wealthy and would naturally hire a professional nutritionist to help with the recuperation.

Arriving at the hotel where Qi Dapeng was staying, Lin Tian asked the two women to wait outside and carried Mr. Qi by himself back to his room.

After a whole night of turmoil, it was now past four in the morning, but the door was open, and light spilled from inside. Qi Dapeng clearly had trouble sleeping deep into the night.

With his son’s life hanging by a thread, he indeed couldn’t sleep.

In a suite’s living room, Qi Dapeng sat on the sofa with a furrowed brow, while a woman paced anxiously in front of him, looking a few years younger than Qi Dapeng, probably his wife.

She must have been quite attractive in her youth, but her face now was full of worry and her complexion poor, clearly anxious about something.

As for why this woman appeared here, Lin Tian didn’t care at all. Perhaps she had followed later, especially given her son was in danger.

"Who is it?" Qi Dapeng, who had been frowning in thought, suddenly looked up sharply upon hearing footsteps and shouted.

But when he saw who it was, he first paused, then his face lit up with joy.

"Mr. Lin, you’re back?" Qi Dapeng saw his own son but still greeted Lin Tian respectfully.

However, the woman was more anxious, shouting "Son" at the sight of Mr. Qi and moving forward, but Qi Dapeng stopped her.

"Alan, this is Lin Tian, the Mr. Lin I told you about who I asked to help treat our son," Qi Dapeng introduced respectfully, and then said to Lin Tian, "This is Mrs. Qi, Ruan Xiulan. Please forgive any disrespect."

Lin Tian placed Mr. Qi on the sofa, sized up the woman a few times—having not seen her before, she might have been arranged by Qi Dapeng to stay outside. At this moment, the two female spies were far away in their own country, so she had followed here.

"So, you are Mrs. Qi. Mr. Qi is fine now; you can go check on him," Lin Tian nodded and responded. He called her Mrs. Qi as he noticed that these wealthy people preferred such titles, so he went along with it.

Hearing that Mr. Qi was fine, Ruan Xiulan became overwhelmed with excitement, forgetting even to say thank you, and hurried over to check on her son. Qi Dapeng, however, was a bit more composed and didn’t lose his demeanor.

"Mr. Lin, I presume to ask, when you say he’s all right, do you mean..." Qi Dapeng asked sheepishly.

Lin Tian understood what he meant and confidently replied, "Mr. Qi’s Gu has been cured; you can rest assured about that. He is just weakened from the ordeal, and he will be fine after some time to recuperate."

"Really?" Qi Dapeng, receiving a definitive answer, could not contain his surprise and joy. He then seriously said to Lin Tian, "Mr. Lin, rest assured, I, Qi Dapeng, never go back on my word."

Lin Tian wasn’t worried about this issue at all; even if he were to go back on his word, there were plenty of ways to deal with him.

"Mr. Lin, why hasn’t my son woken up yet?" Ruan Xiulan, having watched her son for a while and seeing no signs of awakening, asked worriedly.

Qi Dapeng didn’t stop his wife from asking because he, too, wanted to know when his son would wake up.

"Don’t worry." Lin Tian said, and then he removed the golden thread from his wrist and applied acupuncture to several points on Mr. Qi’s head.

After the acupuncture, Mr. Qi slowly opened his eyes, finally waking up.

As he awoke, the first thing he saw was Lin Tian in front of him. His pupils gradually focused, and, trying hard to recall, he finally remembered what had happened before.

"Lin Tian, I have recovered all my memories. Is my illness really cured?" Mr. Qi asked in disbelief.

Every survivor of a catastrophe feels as if they were dreaming, and Lin Tian had to answer again.

Suddenly, Mr. Qi struggled to get up and then thudded to the ground, kowtowing three times to Lin Tian.

"Lin Tian, I was against you before, and I was a bastard. Having gone through this ordeal, I’ve completely realized that you are my lifesaver, my life is yours from now on. If you have any orders, just command me, even if it requires taking my life back, I will not hesitate," Mr. Qi earnestly said.

"I don’t need your life, just try to bully people less from now on," Lin Tian said indifferently. He wasn’t like Sun Decai who needed people to serve him every day.

"Having faced life and death, I now realize how childish and ridiculous I used to be. The old Mr. Qi is gone forever," Mr. Qi remarked.

"Alright, it’s almost dawn, and I still have things to do, I have to leave now. We can talk more later." Lin Tian checked the time and spoke, as Xiao Manxuan and Ning Luoxi were still waiting outside.

Leaving this way, if Miss finds out, a tantrum is inevitable; sneaking abroad with someone else’s sister for such a dangerous affair would anger anyone. But Miss is also in Capital City, and sooner or later, he will have to meet her.

"Alright, Mr. Lin, thank you for your hard work. Let me see you out," Qi Dapeng said. Although there was still much he wanted to ask, the timing wasn’t right, so he wished to escort Lin Tian out.

But just as he had finished speaking, Lin Tian had already vanished from the living room. Ruan Xiulan and Mr. Qi were both shocked, and Qi Dapeng could only shake his head and wryly smile. The young man came and went like the wind, appearing and disappearing elusively; his strength was far beyond them.

"Alan, son, tomorrow, no, it’s already early morning, so it should be today. I am going to announce a significant decision," Qi Dapeng said seriously, looking in the direction Lin Tian had left.

Lin Tian left the hotel, went to the parking lot, and returned to Ning Luoxi’s car. By this time, Xiao Manxuan had already fallen asleep in her seat. After enduring so much tonight, it was remarkable that she had kept it together.

"Lin Tian, now that the matter is settled, you should answer my question," Ning Luoxi said softly. "Where did you learn your ’Meteor Burst’ from?"
