Chapter 44 - 44 Splitting Up
“Yes, Young Master. I’ll arrange for someone to do it now.”
On the other end of the phone, Er Hu replied in a low voice.
Although Lin Tian was strong, he was not invincible. Coupled with the acupuncture he had given himself previously, his strength was no longer as vibrant as before.
That night, Lin Tian fell asleep at home after drinking.
When he finally sensed the danger that he normally would have sensed long ago, he suddenly opened his eyes and realized that there was a group of masked burly men standing in his house.
“Who are you!”
Before Lin Tian could say anything else, he was beaten up by those people.
“Kid, I’ll spare your life this time! Keep a low profile in the future!”
A few minutes later, the burly leader left the room with the others.
Only Lin Tian was left lying on the bed like a dead dog.
…
Three days later.
As usual, Luo Chen brought Ye Bei to the company.
As soon as he walked into the company hall, Luo Chen clapped his hands.
“Everyone, come over. I have something to announce!”
With Luo Chen’s words, both the company’s higher-ups and grassroots employees gathered in the hall.
Zheng Zeqiang, who was standing at the front, asked, “Young Master Luo, what instructions do you have?”
“I can’t say that it’s an order. I have good news for you.
Everyone will get an additional 10,000 yuan bonus this month! Also, you can have two more days off!”
Luo Chen smiled.
When everyone heard this news, they instantly erupted with joy. 10,000 yuan was enough for them to do many things.
“Young Master Luo is so generous! Thank you, Young Master Luo!”
“That’s great. I was just worried that I wouldn’t have enough to spend this month. I can finally catch my breath.”
The employees thanked Luo Chen.
Luo Chen waved his hand. “You don’t have to thank me. Thank Ye Bei!”
After saying that, Luo Chen pushed the dumbfounded Ye Bei in front of everyone.
Then, Luo Chen told them about his stone gambling.
In the end, Luo Chen didn’t forget to add, “If not for Ye Bei, I wouldn’t have been able to earn so much money.”
Pfft!
Hearing this, Ye Bei felt a sharp pain in his heart.
If not for him, Luo Chen would not have earned so much.
What a sin! He shouldn’t have followed him at that time!
Just as Ye Bei was feeling regretful, the group of employees surrounded him.
“Bro Bei is awesome!”
“Ever since Bro Bei came to the company, our bonus has increased every few days!”
“Bro Bei, continue working hard! I hope you can do better in the future!”
Hearing these people’s words, Ye Bei felt as if his heart had been stabbed with a knife.
But even so, Ye Bei had to appear very happy on the surface.
“Hahaha, everyone is too polite. I was just lucky.”
If not for the fact that he was afraid that Luo Chen would notice something amiss, Ye Bei really wanted to turn around and leave.
After celebrating for a while, everyone returned to their posts.
Ye Bei followed the antagonist back to the office.
At noon.
Ye Bei, who was standing guard outside the door, suddenly received Lin Tian’s message and arranged to meet him at a restaurant.
Putting away his phone, Ye Bei walked into the office.
He came to Luo Chen and said, “Boss, a friend of mine asked me to send him something. Can I take a short leave? I’ll be back soon.”
Luo Chen nodded. “Go on, just come back before lunch.”
“Yes, Boss.”
After Ye Bei finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Looking at Ye Bei’s back, Luo Chen frowned slightly.
It seemed that he should strengthen his defenses again in the near future.
How could Ye Bei have any friends in Jiang City? He was definitely meeting Lin Tian.
These two fellows really don’t give up. They’re always planning to deal with him.
...
Luo Chen shook his head and decided to be more vigilant.
…
Little Fatty’s Stir-fry Restaurant.
As soon as Ye Bei entered, he saw Lin Tian, who was sitting in the corner, waving at him.
“Lin Tian? What happened to your face?”
When Ye Bei saw Lin Tian’s face, he almost couldn’t help but laugh.
After being beaten up yesterday, Lin Tian’s face was as swollen as a pig’s head, and there were dark rings around his eyes.
“What are you laughing at! Ye Bei, tell me the truth. Are you already on Luo Chen’s side?”
Lin Tian asked angrily.
After Ye Bei repeatedly helped Luo Chen to earn money, Lin Tian finally couldn’t help but question him.
“Bullsh*t! Am I that kind of person? It’s purely a coincidence that Luo Chen earned money. Do you think I wanted this?”
...
Hearing this question, Ye Bei was furious.
What happened this morning was already infuriating enough, but Lin Tian still said such things.
Lin Tian sneered. “Hehe, I really don’t know what kind of person you are now.”
“What kind of bullsh*t is this!” Ye Bei slammed the table and stood up. “I already said that it was a coincidence. If you don’t trust me, then we’ll go our separate ways in the future. Don’t look for me anymore!”
With that, Ye Bei planned to leave.
Seeing that Ye Bei didn’t look like he was faking it, Lin Tian hurriedly stood up to stop him.
“Brother, don’t be angry. Anyone would have some doubts about this. Let’s sit down and talk. I promise not to doubt you anymore.”
On account of their time together as the Five Tigers, Ye Bei sat down again.
Lin Tian immediately said, “Brother, we can’t continue like this. Luo Chen is earning more and more. When he completely grows up, it will be as difficult as ascending to the heavens to deal with him.”
“What can we do? This guy’s luck is too good. He can make money every time.”
Thinking of this, Ye Bei felt that the heavens were too unfair.
“But we can’t just stop doing anything just because he’s lucky, right?”
“I have a plan. The two of us can split up. Luo Chen has earned so much money in a short period of time. He must be in an arrogant state. Pay more attention to him. As long as there’s a losing business, think of a way to trap him.”
“After he loses money, he will definitely be in a bad mood. At that time, think of a way to bring him to the bar. I’ll let Nightingale approach him. At that time, she’ll directly accuse him of molesting and we can make that bastard Luo Chen lose money and lose his reputation!”
After being beaten up yesterday, Lin Tian did not sleep and thought about his plan for the entire night.
Nightingale was a woman he had saved at the border previously. Not only did she have a cold appearance, but she was also very professional in collecting information.
After coming to Jiang City for so long, almost all the information Lin Tian had was provided to him by Nightingale.
Ye Bei nodded. “Sure, we’ll do as you say.”
“One more thing. Help me keep an eye out and see if there are any burly men around Luo Chen. Tell me if there are.”
Lin Tian was certain that it was Luo Chen who had sent the thugs last night.
Although he had also offended some hooligans before, he could send them flying with one hand.
However, the group of burly men last night was very strong. They were not inferior to the Imperial Dragon Army at all.
As the dignified Dragon King, he would definitely not pretend that nothing had happened. He would definitely have his revenge, including against the most damned Luo Chen!
“Alright, I’ll keep an eye out. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first. If I go back too late, I’m worried that Luo Chen will suspect me.”
Ye Bei nodded and turned to leave the restaurant…
