The Invincible Strongest Student

Wang Daoran's face turned from red to white, then from white to red, and finally to the color of a pig's liver.

He felt his head swelling and burning, as if a mischievous monkey was causing a ruckus inside.

What infuriated him even more was that brat Wu Yong!

What do you mean by showing you a cerebral hemorrhage?

Why don't you have one for me to see?

Why don't you ascend to the heavens?

Thinking of this, Wang Daoran was even more infuriated, and his whole body collapsed onto the chair, panting heavily.

Just at this moment, the middle-aged man sitting next to Wang Daoran placed his hand on his back.

No one knew what had happened, but Wang Daoran suddenly felt a refreshing sensation rush to his forehead, making him shudder with comfort.

Then, that swollen and hot feeling disappeared, and he returned to normal again.

"Have some water," the middle-aged man said softly, his voice penetrating the room despite its softness, making it clear to everyone inside.

Without questioning him, Wang Daoran drank two glasses of water in a row and finally calmed down.

Suddenly, Wu Yong, chewing on some meat, said indistinctly, "Huh, why aren't you dead yet?"

Wang Daoran felt his recently suppressed rage surge again, so he quickly took two deep breaths to quell the fiery anger.

At this time, a young man sitting on Wang Daoran's other side handed over a yellowish pill to him. "Take this."

Wang Daoran was stunned, somewhat flattered as he looked at the young man, then without hesitation, popped it into his mouth and drank it down with water.

This scene was clearly observed by Lin Tian, and the pill was definitely a refined elixir made from top-quality herbs.

Lin Tian's heart burned with passion as he looked at the young man and asked, "What did you give him?"

The young man acted as if he hadn't heard Lin Tian's question, maintaining a calm demeanor in his seat.

Lin Tian didn't pursue the question further since he knew the young man wouldn't tell him anyway.

After Wang Daoran swallowed the pill, no one knew what miraculous effect it had, but his complexion quickly returned to normal, which was both pleasing and displeasing to Lin Tian.

Pleased because the pill's effect was remarkable.

Displeased because Wang Daoran seemed unfazed.

Wang Daoran shot a fierce glance at Lin Tian and Wu Yong, saying, "Can we discuss business now?"

Lin Tian remained silent, while Wu Yong continued eating. Bai Shishi hurriedly said, "Mr. Wang, it's me who's here to talk with you, they're just accompanying me."

Wang Daoran was taken aback for a moment, then felt a bit annoyed. If you were the one talking to me, you should've said so earlier! I wasted so many words, nearly dropping dead in the process.

Wang Daoran held back from losing his temper, as much time had been wasted already. Instead, he directly asked, "I know you have a lot of evidence against us. Just name your price."

Bai Shishi offered a polite smile, still stunningly beautiful. "So, what price does Mr. Wang propose?"

Wang Daoran did not rush to offer a price, instead pointing to the two people kneeling on the ground, saying, "These two people, one is Du Dahai, the other is the assassin who attempted to murder Lin Tian a few days ago. They're both here. Can that be considered one of my bargaining chips?"

Upon hearing the name Du Dahai, Bai Shishi, Lin Tian, and Wu Yong were all momentarily stunned, stopped eating, and looked over at the two kneeling figures.

The two were kneeling facing Lin Tian and the others, as if atoning for their sins, and were quite injured, covered in scars and bruises, and smudged with dried blood. Their heads hung low, arms limp as if dislocated, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Who could've imagined that one of them was once the Laughing Face Tiger Du Dahai, the underworld boss of Kanyue City? Seeing them in such a state, Lin Tian couldn't help sighing—mixed up in this line, they should've long seen it coming to such an end, right?

When Bai Shishi heard 'assassin attempting to murder Lin Tian', her bright eyes contracted slightly. Then she turned her head, looking at Lin Tian with questioning eyes, "What's this about an assassination?"

"Uh…" Lin Tian was momentarily speechless, then awkwardly chuckled, "Just an event from a few days ago, a false alarm, didn't tell you to avoid worrying you."

A couple days ago, when Bai Shishi visited Lin Tian's villa, the door was closed, so only Lin Tian, Wu Yong, and Liou Qingcheng knew about the mess inside.

Bai Shishi gave Lin Tian a discreet glare and huffed softly, "I'll ask you about it when we get back."

Wang Daoran's voice rang out again, "So, what do you think? You must both hate these two a lot, right? Honestly, I wasn't aware of the assassination attempt two days ago. Once I found out, I captured them and specially brought them to you today."

Without Wang Daoran needing to say, Bai Shishi considered these two extremely important. One was a former archenemy, and the other was the assassin attempting to murder Lin Tian.

They must die!

Before Bai Shishi could speak, Lin Tian suddenly spoke up, "These two don't count as bargaining chips. They're just useless wastrels, we don't need them."

Bai Shishi felt a bit anxious—how could they not need these two? They both had to die!

But upon meeting Lin Tian's gaze, Bai Shishi relented. Though she didn't understand why Lin Tian was doing this, she trusted him.

"Why?" Wang Daoran widened his eyes,

"No particular reason, because they're just wastrels." Lin Tian repeated once more.

Seeing Wang Daoran's face darken, Lin Tian chuckled inwardly. If they reached my hands, they'd be dead; in your hands, would you really take them to the police? The outcome would still be death.

Confronted with such an opponent playing by his own rules, Wang Daoran felt a bit frustrated, yet helpless.

"Alright then, I'll arrange for the media to issue a clarification notice regarding your Bai Family Group, stating the recent malicious reports were untrue, and sincerely apologize to your group and the public. How does that sound?" Wang Daoran finished, earnestly watching Bai Shishi's expression.

Then, he added, "Of course, your Bai Family also has to make the media apologize to us."

"Alright." Bai Shishi agreed without hesitation, having decided on this long ago. If the outside rumors weren't dispelled soon, no matter how large a corporation, it couldn't endure for long.

However, a clarification notice alone wouldn't convince all netizens; people aren't fools—such a notice would only make them think Bai Family bribed the news agencies.

To gain trust, real evidence had to be presented, prompting the authorities to conduct an investigation and publicly disclose the results.

To achieve this, both families' official power was needed, as these large families usually had connections with high-ranking officials.

As long as evidence was presented—and officially at that—countless netizens' mouths could be shut. If anyone doubted, well, then go ahead and produce your own evidence.
