Chapter 539: Chapter 536: Delivering Medicine

"Ah..." A woman’s scream rang out in the hall, followed by a burst of uproarious laughter from the men.

After his pants fell down twice in a row, they couldn’t help but suspect that Sun Decai was about to go mad. Such an embarrassing incident at an event like this was bound to make him the butt of jokes in their circle for a long time.

Facing the ridicule from the people around him, Sun Decai felt the world spin, almost falling over, but he managed to keep his wits about him and quickly pulled up his pants before running out.

It wasn’t until Sun Decai disappeared from everyone’s sight that the laughter gradually subsided.

Lin Tian watched, utterly dumbfounded. He truly hadn’t anticipated Xiao Manxuan pulling such a stunt—the little girl was too fierce. He didn’t know that Gu worms could be used in this way.

But if Li Qingyun found out about this, would she think it was a waste of good resources? Such a high-quality Gu worm being used by Xiao Manxuan just to ruin clothes.

He then remembered he was still holding onto Sun Decai’s girlfriend and quickly looked down. Qi Jing furrowed her brows but showed no intention of chasing after him.

"Your boyfriend left, don’t you need to go out and comfort him?" Lin Tian let go of Qi Jing and smiled.

"No need. He has so many women to comfort him, does it matter if I’m not there?" Qi Jing replied, her emotions inscrutable.

She hesitated and then looked up at Lin Tian, softly saying, "Lin Tian, he and I..."

"Stop!" Lin Tian raised his hand to stop her from continuing, smiling faintly, "I’m not interested in hearing your story with Sun Decai."

He did not need her to say it; he could guess what she wanted to say. It was probably that she suddenly realized one day that she was not the only woman in Sun Decai’s life, or that Sun Decai had grown tired of her and found other pretty women.

The affairs of the wealthy youth were nothing new; to them, it was not really a big deal.

An average guy with little money also desires a beautiful woman, and even dreams of having more than one. Let alone a rich young heir—with money and the means, why wouldn’t he seek more and better women?

There’s nothing much to say about that, as it all comes down to mutual consent. If the girl feels it’s worth it, she’ll stay; if not, she naturally won’t be willing.

Moreover, in this day and age, even wealthy women keep multiple boy toys, or girls date several guys at the same time, keeping a plethora of backups.

Lin Tian looked at the silent Qi Jing and said calmly, "There is fine wine and great food here. If you like it, stay and enjoy; if not, feel free to leave, I’ll take my leave then."

After saying that, he left the dance floor, heading toward a corner. Qi Jing bit her lip as she watched Lin Tian’s retreating figure, her heart a mix of emotions.

Elsewhere, Miss and Xiao Manxuan acted as if nothing had happened, making their way to Mrs. Xiao’s side.

Also there were Zi Yan, Ou Qinglan, the entire Zhou Family, and the couple, Song Yanan, all chatting and laughing together in a harmonious atmosphere. However, Elder Zhou was not there, perhaps due to his age and disinterest in this type of social event, so he had left.

"Miss Manxue, where is Brother Lin? Old Wan was just asking about him a moment ago," Song Yanan inquired upon seeing Miss arrive.

"Yeah, where did he go? He didn’t even come to see his old buddy. Plus, Miss Ou has something she wants to ask him about, regarding whether the royal jadeite is for sale or not," Wan Gaoyuan added with a smile.

Miss glanced at her mother and saw her nod, confirming that Ou Qinglan was serious. Although Tianxue Jewelry was nominally under the Xiao Group, it actually operated independently, and Lin Tian was the major shareholder and the owner of the royal jadeite, so indeed, his consent was necessary for such matters.

Xiao Manxue replied, "Just now, Lin Tian was chatting with the son of the Yun Family, and then he danced with a girl in the dance floor. He should still be in the dance floor."

"Oh, which lady is my junior brother charming this time?" Zi Yan said with a smile, then looked towards the dance floor.

The others also looked towards the dance floor, searching for Lin Tian’s figure, but aside from Qi Jing, who was still standing in the same spot, Lin Tian’s trace was already gone from the dance floor.

"Is this the girl who danced with Lin Tian?" Zi Yan asked.

Miss nodded her head and affirmed, "Yes, her name is Qi Jing, she is Lin Tian’s ex-girlfriend."

"Ex-girlfriend? Are you sure you’re not mistaken?" Zi Yan was taken aback again, doubtful.

"No mistake, Qi Jing betrayed Lin Tian," Xiao Manxuan gritted her teeth, the little girl had no good feelings for Qi Jing.

This revelation surprised several people who were unaware of the situation. For example, Ou Qinglan didn’t know about these things; they thought it was just a breakup due to incompatible personalities, which is normal for young people. But they would have never thought Qi Jing had betrayed Lin Tian.

Ou Qinglan expressed her bafflement: "Although I haven’t known Lin Tian for long, my impression is that he is a hidden dragon. Mrs. Xiao, don’t blame me for being blunt, but the Xiao Family is like a small pond that absolutely cannot contain Lin Tian. Sooner or later, he will soar to the heavens and roam the world like a dragon. I can’t think of a reason why that lady would betray such a man."

Upon hearing that Lin Tian would eventually fly away, Xiao Manxuan’s expression immediately became anxious, and she muttered softly, "That jerk wouldn’t just leave us and fly away."

"I don’t know either, maybe Lin Tian was too low-key before," Miss shook her head and said, and then she laughed softly again; low-key seemed to have nothing to do with that jerk.

"So where has Lin Tian gone to?" Xiao Manxuan looked around the dance floor and asked in wonder.

The crowd glanced over at Yun Xiaotian, who was sitting alone without Lin Tian in sight.

While they were looking for Lin Tian, he had already stepped out through a side door in the corner, crossed a corridor, and arrived outside. All the guests had entered the hall, with only the occasional waiter passing by outside.

Lin Tian looked up at the rooftop of the building outside, suddenly picked up the pace, and in a few flashes, he was out of the banquet hall’s courtyard and in front of the building.

There was an elevator that went directly to the rooftop of the building, but Lin Tian took the stairs. It took him less than two minutes to reach the rooftop exit. Pushing the door open, two women just happened to be looking towards the exit.

Lin Tian did not intentionally hide, knowing that he couldn’t fool Ning Luoxi, so it was not surprising for them to discover him coming up.

"Lin Tian, I just knew you’d find us," Ning Luoxi said.

"Of course. You two showed up so conspicuously on the rooftop, and so close to the banquet hall. If I couldn’t find you, I wouldn’t be called Lin Tian," Lin Tian said with a laugh.

Actually, he also knew that even though he spoke lightly, discovering them was not something an ordinary person could do, but he was just joking.

"Lin Tian, we’ve been waiting for you a long time. Are there many beauties at the party? Can’t bear to leave?" Li Yue, however, was unabashed.

Lin Tian looked Li Yue up and down. The young girl wore a white top and hot pants today, her fair long legs eye-catching, feet in white sneakers, completely decked out as a youth. From her appearance, no one would guess that she was the Miao Border’s fearsome Gu Cultivator.

"Heh, who would have thought, Miss Li Yue, as a Gu Cultivator, could dress so beautifully," said Lin Tian as his gaze swept over her, hehing a laugh, then extended his hand, adding, "I assume Miss Li Yue is here to deliver the Gu medicine, I’ll thank the miss on behalf of Miss beforehand."
