Chapter 1227: Little Fangirl
Wu Yong didn’t say anything for quite a while.
Throwing money at it?
Sounds easy! But that’s money! Not just white paper!
And it’s not just money, you also need connections and goodwill.
Having mixed in society for some time, Wu Yong also knew that problems that money can solve aren’t really problems. What’s more troublesome is owing favors!
"Is it worth it?" Wu Yong asked.
"Worth it!" This word seemed to come out through Lin Tian’s clenched teeth, firm and undeniable.
Gulp gulp.
Wu Yong picked up his glass and drank it down in one gulp, then slammed the glass on the table and wiped his mouth, saying, "Alright! However you want to handle it, let’s do it. It’s just the Wang Family, let’s go!"
Lin Tian was amused by his silly look and laughed, saying, "You handle this matter, do what you can, and if someone tries to fleece us, we can’t take a big hit."
"I’m not stupid, I get it!"
Talking about this, Lin Tian suddenly remembered someone and said, "I have a friend who might be able to help a lot, saving us quite some trouble, though there’s no guarantee we can reach them."
Wu Yong’s expression suddenly turned strange, with an ambiguous smile, he teased, "Your friend, must be a stunning beauty, right?"
Lin Tian asked, "How do you know who it is?"
"Hehehe..." Wu Yong laughed lecherously, "Your luck with women is so good, eighty percent are female, and especially stunning beauties, am I right?"
"Blind cat meets a dead mouse, you’ve got it right this time."
"Tsk tsk tsk, looks like I have another sister-in-law, have I met this sister-in-law before?"
Lin Tian glared, "Nothing good ever comes out of your mouth! What sister-in-law, calling them randomly, she and I are just friends."
"Tsk~"
Despite his disdain, Wu Yong couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked, "Who’s the one with such great Divine Power?"
"Aren’t you good at guessing? Keep guessing!"
"..."
They chatted endlessly, sitting at a roadside table, from card tricks to women, then from women to kids, and from kids to Meng Nan and Sisi (since their child was going to be born soon), finally touching on family.
Since graduating from high school, these buddies hadn’t had such a heart-to-heart talk, and this went on for over two hours. The table was littered with bamboo skewers and several empty bottles lay scattered. Luckily, Wu Yong could hold his drink, otherwise, he might have passed out on the table.
Wu Yong raised his hand high and slurred, "Boss! Check please!"
Neither the boss nor the boss’s wife appeared. Instead, the little girl from before ran out quickly, saying, "No need to pay, the extra money those people gave is enough."
With his face flushed red from drinking, Wu Yong looked at the girl’s pretty face, then at Lin Tian, and finally burst out laughing, "Tian, are you playing the face card here?"
"Get lost," Lin Tian rolled his eyes at Wu Yong, ignoring his lecherous grin, and said to the girl, "What they gave has nothing to do with me, keep our accounts separate. Otherwise, we wouldn’t dare to come here again."
"Well... okay," the girl said helplessly, then looked at the bill in her hand, "It’s one hundred and fifty, but since it’s your first time here, let’s make it a hundred."
This time Lin Tian didn’t refuse, he kicked Wu Yong under the table and said, "What are you staring at? Pay up!"
Wu Yong felt really wronged, all he had to do was pay, why kick him?
"Little girl, let’s pay via a scan," Wu Yong said.
"Okay."
After completing the transaction, Wu Yong chuckled again, "Why not, let’s exchange contacts?"
"Sorry, I don’t have a phone," the girl said bluntly.
"..." Wu Yong was speechless, you don’t have a phone? What did I just use to scan? If you’re going to reject me, couldn’t you come up with a more heartfelt reason? This really stings!
Then, the girl moved closer to Lin Tian, blushing and smiling, "I thought you looked familiar earlier, are you that traditional medicine expert from the news, Lin Tian, right?"
"Hehe, that’s me." Lin Tian nodded, it wasn’t the first time being recognized by a fan, so he didn’t feel much.
"Wow, it really is you! You know, a lot of my classmates and I adore you! Because of you, many people want to apply to Kanyue City Medical University!" she said excitedly.
Lin Tian gave a slight smile, "Thank you."
"No need, by the way, could you...give me your phone number?" the girl mustered the courage to ask, looking at his handsome face with anticipation.
Lin Tian thought for a moment, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Sorry, I don’t have a phone."
"Pfft~ hahahaha..."
Wu Yong, hearing this familiar response, couldn’t help but burst into laughter. He even felt a sense of joy in his heart! What goes around comes around!
What a lame excuse, even lamer than ’I don’t have a phone’! Dude, did you just transmigrate here? Hahahaha!
But as he laughed, he couldn’t laugh anymore.
What does this girl mean? She rejected me and then went to Lin Tian for his number, that’s also quite hurtful!
The girl’s face turned even redder, shy and annoyed, she stomped her foot and said teasingly, "You’re lying! How could anyone not use a phone these days!"
"I’m not lying to you," Lin Tian said calmly, "You can search if you don’t believe me."
"..."
The girl’s face turned even redder, as if it was covered with a light blush of dusk, brilliantly cute.
She really wanted to try, after all, a guy this fair-skinned and handsome, but also strong, touching him a bit wouldn’t be bad, but that’s just wishful thinking! This... broad daylight, in public, how could she possibly do that?
Lin Tian saw this and said what he did for this very reason. He wasn’t dumb, he naturally understood what the girl was thinking. So he promptly refused, because if he gave her his number, that would give her a glimmer of hope, which in the end would be cruel, so better to be a bit more decisive.
"Okay." The girl let out a sigh, then raised her smile again, "As your fan, can I have a photo together and an autograph at least?"
Lin Tian thought about it; this request was hard to refuse, so he nodded.
With the food stall in the background, Lin Tian stood with his hands in his pockets, and the girl, a head shorter than him, posed cutely beside him, while photographer Wu Yong crouched on the ground, awkwardly taking shots under the girl’s instructions, just to make her legs look longer.
After taking the photo and signing his name, the girl finally let Lin Tian go.
However, they came in a luxury car, but could only leave in a taxi, since drunk driving is illegal, and they would need to find a driver to take the Lamborghini back.
