Chapter 252: Chapter 251 Conditions (Part 2) "The first condition is the most important, we have settled on that, and you must prepare the money immediately once you return, don’t think of delaying. Now I will discuss the second condition with you, which is very simple for you," Lin Tian said, then turned around to find a chair to sit down. However, Bai Yuanhao and the others didn’t know what trick Lin Tian was playing and had no mood to sit down. In their eyes, Lin Tian was more demonic than a demon itself, always uncertain if the next moment would turn into a nightmare when dealing with an enemy. Lin Tian looked at their anxious expressions, suddenly laughed, and said, "Don’t be nervous, sit down. The second condition is really simple. I’m a straightforward person; I just say whatever comes to my mind." "Pfft..." Xiao Manxue couldn’t help but laugh, then quickly covered her mouth. Anyone could claim to be straightforward, but hearing it from Lin Tian made it funny. Normally lawless to the core, and yet he could proclaim himself straightforward—the thickness of his face was truly something. Bai Yuanhao and Sun Hai also exchanged glances. If he counts as straightforward, then what would he be like otherwise? Both had interacted with Lin Tian and knew exactly what kind of person he was, anything but straightforward. Not to mention Bai Yufeng and Sun Decai, who had dealt with Lin Tian the most, felt extremely frustrated inside. If he’s straightforward, then we must be innocent little rabbits. "The second condition, I don’t care how many gangsters you know, Bai Yufeng, no matter how many hoodlums, from now on, you must ensure they never bully any student of Xikou City High School ever again, remember, not a single one," Lin Tian stated. "Okay, no problem with that," Bai Yufeng immediately agreed, followed by Sun Decai, Mr. Qi, and Cui Haolong. Having money and mixing in society, of course, they knew a host of dubious characters. They needed these hoodlums to do their bidding, and the hoodlums were only too happy to be paid for their services—both sides were in collusion. To even say they were in collusion is to credit them too much; wolves at least are fierce, and foxes are cunning. These were nothing but a bunch of cowards who preyed on the weak and feared the strong. If they had even a slight bit of spine, they wouldn’t bully weaker students. If they were capable, they would challenge stronger opponents. Bullying within their own circle was pointless. Lin Tian wasn’t looking down on them; their actions were simply disgraceful. Such people had no right to worship statues of Guan Gong. Guan Gong was known for his profound sense of righteousness and his lofty reputation stood through generations; for these hoodlums to worship him was a sheer insult. "Sun Decai, the students did nothing to provoke or bother you, yet you bullied your own classmates, you’re nothing but a coward. Back then, how did you describe me? Oh, right, you said I’d always be under your feet, haha, all this time, it’s through such actions that you continue to prove your pitiful sense of superiority," Lin Tian said disdainfully as he looked at him. Sun Hai looked uncomfortable but could say nothing because he knew his son’s character best. Previously in Xikou City, one could act high and mighty without facing setbacks, but now had struck a powerful barrier in Lin Tian. "The third condition, the distinguished individuals here today—Sun Hai, Qi Dapeng, Cui Haolong, and Mrs. Xiao—will together contribute a sum of money to invest in the Bai Family’s jewelry store to expand its operations. Thirty percent of the annual profits will go to Xiao’s Love Foundation, and the remaining seventy percent will be distributed according to the shareholding proportions," Lin Tian proposed the third condition, which seemed rather odd. Everyone was puzzled about Lin Tian’s intentions, including Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Manxue, but they knew Lin Tian wouldn’t harm the Xiao Family by doing this; there must be a reason, so they did not speak out. Bai Yuanhao frowned and said, "Thirty percent of the profits is too much. What do you need this money for? Why invest in my Bai Family’s jewelry store?" "We just made a donation, and now this; what do you mean by this?" Sun Hai also spoke with barely concealed anger, as continuous demands like this were unbearable. "Exactly, I, Qi Dapeng, am not unwilling to make amends, but this cannot go on without end!" Qi Dapeng also shouted, his voice rough. Cui Haolong also wanted to object, but seeing Lin Tian’s cold expression, he chose to remain silent. Xikou City wasn’t his territory, so he lacked the confidence of the other local big shots. After allowing them to speak, Lin Tian calmly looked at Bai Yuanhao and coldly said, "Earlier, I was being reasonable; do you think you can turn the tables now? Haha, I’ve said it before, my conditions are non-negotiable, immutable. Of course, you’re free to leave; I absolutely won’t stop you." Hearing Lin Tian’s indifferent tone, they all felt an ominous premonition. Although he said he wouldn’t stop them, no one dared take a step, unsure if he would suddenly pull another trick. "Boss Bai, do you know what the consequences of this blowing up would be?" Lin Tian looked at Bai Yuanhao and didn’t wait for his response before saying, "Parents of the students will come together to sue you. You’ll be swamped with lawsuits, the police will investigate you. Do you think they might accidentally uncover something illegal of the Bai Family? The media will plaster your scandals on the front pages daily. The Bai Family’s publicly traded stocks will burst like a balloon and keep falling. Would the loss amount to one hundred million? Five hundred million? Or maybe a billion?" Investors are very sensitive; the slightest hint of trouble and they immediately sell off and withdraw, creating a devastating crash. Given the extent China of losses, Lin Tian couldn’t even estimate, but it would certainly be a massive blow to the Bai Family. "Are you threatening us? In business, I’m the one who threatens others, and you dare threaten us?" Qi Dapeng’s temper was not to be underestimated. His years in underground boxing had bred a substantial menacing aura, and his eyes narrowed. In his view, no one was invincible. To kill someone stronger than himself, he had many methods; many tough fighters had died by his hand in the boxing ring over the years. "A threat? You can think of it that way; the video is right here in this fine gentleman’s hands. I’ll give you a chance; if you can take it from him, you call the shots," Lin Tian pointed to Rossi, speaking calmly. All eyes then turned to Rossi, trying to figure out who this foreign young man really was. Especially Xiao Manxue thought he looked familiar yet was sure she didn’t know such a foreigner, and she wondered how Lin Tian had come to know him. Qi Dapeng revealed a bloodthirsty gaze, snorted coldly, and said, "It’s been many years since I left the ring, and I haven’t smelled blood for a long time, haha." He moved his hands behind his back and paced forward; when he was about five meters away from Rossi, he suddenly accelerated and lunged forward, his right fist aimed at Rossi’s throat with no fancy moves. However, Xiao Manxue suddenly shouted, "Be careful, he has poisoned needles!" The source of this content is fre(e)novelhall
