Chapter 170 Comes Out

Lin Tian checked the time on his cell phone and calculated; it should be about time for Zhong Guo to come looking for him.

"Alright, stop bluffing. You better think about what to do!" Chen Yixuan shook her head in disbelief. She took Lin Tian's words as a joke.

"Here they come!" Suddenly, Lin Tian looked towards the door. He heard footsteps.

"Pff! Cut it out!" Chen Yixuan rolled her eyes at Lin Tian. She didn't believe Lin Tian's words at all and thought he was just messing with her.

"Click~" As the door opened, Zhong Guo walked in with a rather serious expression.

As soon as he entered, Zhong Guo glanced at Lin Tian and then turned to Chen Yixuan, saying, "You go out. Without my order, no one is allowed in."

"Eh..." At this point, Chen Yixuan was stunned. She gazed dumbly at Zhong Guo. She couldn't believe that the chief actually came. How did Lin Tian know?

Turning her head, Chen Yixuan looked at Lin Tian with a dazed expression.

Already somewhat irritable, Zhong Guo frowned and barked, "What are you staring at? Get out!"

"Yes!" Regaining her composure, Chen Yixuan nodded hastily.

After Chen Yixuan left and closed the door behind her, Zhong Guo then turned his gaze back to Lin Tian.

With slightly furrowed brows, Zhong Guo quietly looked at Lin Tian, saying nothing.

With his legs crossed, Lin Tian smiled at Zhong Guo and cheerily said, "You saw the note, right?"

Zhong Guo was silent for a while, not speaking. After a long moment, he looked at Lin Tian and asked, "Is all this true?"

"What do you think?" Lin Tian smiled faintly.

Taking a deep breath, Zhong Guo looked at Lin Tian seriously, "Will my son really die within a day?" At this, Lin Tian could clearly feel Zhong Guo's breathing quicken.

Nodding slightly, Lin Tian spoke softly, "If I don't intervene, then definitely."

Taking a deep breath and slowly closing his eyes, Zhong Guo, after a while, opened his eyes and looked at Lin Tian, "Speak, what are your demands!"

Zhong Guo naturally guessed that Lin Tian had an ulterior motive, otherwise, he wouldn't have made such an effort to make him believe.

Hearing Zhong Guo say this, a flash of amusement passed through Lin Tian's eyes. Finally, it had come.

Lin Tian sat up straight, leaning forward intently, "Release me immediately."

"Can do! No problem!" Zhong Guo had anticipated such a demand from Lin Tian.

This request was entirely within his power to grant. After all, bringing Lin Tian in was not entirely legal, and his behavior yesterday warranted at most a few days of detention. Releasing him was not a problem at all.

As for Mayor Lin's blame, could it be compared to his son's life?

Surprised that Zhong Guo agreed so readily, Lin Tian got up and walked towards the door, saying as he went, "Alright then, I'll be going first."

"Wait, what about my son?" Zhong Guo panicked as he saw Lin Tian leaving.

Lin Tian paused, turned around with a smile, and said, "Just keep your son indoors tomorrow, and he'll be fine."

"That's it?" Zhong Guo was taken aback. Was it really that simple?

"What else did you expect?" Lin Tian smiled faintly. With that, he turned and left.

Seeing Lin Tian walk away, Zhong Guo truly wanted to keep him there.

What was this?

Just staying inside? That was too simple, wasn't it? Could it be a scam? Was he being played?

At this moment, within his heart, Zhong Guo started to suspect Lin Tian, but the previous note incident made him dare not act rashly.

If he did something that cost his own son his life, that would truly be a loss.

However, letting Lin Tian just walk away like this was something Zhong Guo could not come to terms with; he constantly felt like he had been played. Thus, the instant Lin Tian was about to step out of the door, Zhong Guo called out to him again.

"What now?" Turning his head, Lin Tian looked at him with some impatience.

"Even though you're leaving now, you know who you've angered, and you're definitely going to have trouble. Even if I don't do anything to you, it will be the same!" Zhong Guo looked at Lin Tian earnestly and, while speaking, he watched Lin Tian's expression closely.

Upon hearing this, a hint of scornful smile appeared on Lin Tian's face, "Trouble? You don't need to worry about that, very soon he'll be too busy dealing with his own issues! Just you wait!" With that, Lin Tian turned around, opened the door, and left.

"His own trouble?" Upon hearing this, Zhong Guo was startled and muttered to himself, "Is he talking about Mayor Lin? Will Mayor Lin be in trouble, or is it…" In an instant, Zhong Guo thought of Lin Tian's abilities.

Could it be that he truly has the power to topple Mayor Lin?

If it really was so...

At this thought, a flicker of contemplation crossed Zhong Guo's eyes.

"Click!" With the sound of a door opening, Chen Yixuan, who was waiting outside, was startled and quickly turned her head to look.

"Hey, beautiful!" Seeing Chen Yixuan, Lin Tian gave a slight smile.

"How... How did you get out? Where's Director Zhong?" Chen Yixuan looked at Lin Tian with a shocked expression, at the same time, she peered inside.

She was somewhat worried that Lin Tian had done something to Zhong Guo—that would be troublesome.

"No need to look anymore, it was Director Zhong who let me out; he said I could go back," Lin Tian said with a small smile.

"What? Really?" Chen Yixuan was stunned, disbelief written all over her face. She could not believe Lin Tian's words; on what basis would Zhong Guo let Lin Tian go?

Would Zhong Guo really take the risk of offending Mayor Lin to release Lin Tian?

That made no sense at all.

Chen Yixuan looked at Lin Tian doubtfully, and on a sudden thought, she quickly opened the door and peeked inside.

She feared that Lin Tian had injured Zhong Guo and snuck out!

"I let him go; there's nothing wrong with him, he can leave," Zhong Guo said in a deep voice after casting a glance at Chen Yixuan who had stuck her head in.

"Uh..." Seeing that Zhong Guo was fine, Chen Yixuan felt relieved. Although she was unclear about what ability Lin Tian had that convinced Zhong Guo to release him, the fact remained.

"I'm leaving now, goodbye." Lin Tian waved and left jovially, but as soon as he turned around, he froze.

He looked at the newcomer with some surprise.

Lin Long!

At that moment, Lin Long appeared to be in a bad state, with both his cheeks somewhat swollen, his whole appearance resembling a pig's head. Simultaneously, his right hand had been put in a splint, looking much worse than the last time.

Just as Lin Tian saw him, Lin Long saw Lin Tian.

Startled to see Lin Tian actually out, Lin Long quickly walked over.

Pointing at Lin Tian, Lin Long turned to Chen Yixuan and angrily demanded, "Who let him out? Who dared to let him out?"

He thought it was Chen Yixuan who had released him!

"I let him out!" Suddenly, a calm and steady voice came through. Accompanying this voice, Zhong Guo walked out of the interrogation room at a measured pace.

Seeing Zhong Guo, Lin Long was stunned.

He had not expected this outcome at all.
