Chapter 127: Fight Breaks Out!

[Ding~! Due to the host’s undermining strategy, the protagonist’s business development is forced to stagnate. Lin Tian’s protagonist’s luck is reduced by 20%, and the host gets two chances to draw from the Emperor’s Treasure Chest.].

After leaving the office, Zhao Yanyan hesitated for a long while but ultimately decided not to call Zhao Tiande.

She felt that as the manager of this store, it was her responsibility to handle the situation. Calling her father might be helpful, but it wouldn’t aid in her own growth.

Su Lin, looking serious, exited Zhao Yanyan’s office, ready to help the workers demand their wages.

He had a plan in mind, which was to make Lin Tian ‘accidentally die.’ Lin Tian’s luck wasn’t high, and Su Lin believed there might be a chance to eliminate him.

“Su Lin, are you going to help those workers demand their wages?”

Hearing Xia Shiyu’s voice, Su Lin stopped, “Yes, I promised them I would help.”

“But we don’t know who we’re dealing with. What if they are dangerous people?”

Su Lin, placing his hands on Xia Shiyu’s shoulders, reassured her with a smile, “Dangerous people? Maybe, but you stay here at the supermarket. I’ll be back soon, okay?”

Xia Shiyu expressed her concern, “I want to go with you.”

“That’s not possible. As you said, if there are indeed bad people, I might be able to escape alone, but what if you’re there? Should I leave you behind? Stay here; I’ll be fine with all these workers with me.”

Xia Shiyu, understanding she couldn’t really assist Su Lin, reluctantly agreed, “Okay, but come back soon.”

“Heh! Don’t worry, I’ll be back quickly.”

Downstairs, Liu Da and a group of workers were already waiting, looking doubtful, “Can this young guy really help us get our wages?”

“He looks too tender to do anything; I doubt it.”

“I doubt it too, Brother Da, how could you believe he could help us?”

Liu Da replied with a wry smile, “I thought Su Boss would send someone to help us. I didn’t expect him to go personally.”

His intuition told him that his father’s death was connected to Su Lin. Whether it was true or not didn’t matter now; he would blame Su Lin regardless.

“We’ve come today to settle the wages from the past few days,” Su Lin declared.

Lin Tian’s face darkened as he coldly responded, “I’ve already said, if you leave, you get nothing. You made your choice, so there’s no money for you today.”

After speaking, Lin Tian signaled the gangsters. They understood his gesture and turned their attention to Su Lin.

Su Lin, sensing the tension, realized that Lin Tian was planning a counter-attack. “Let’s see how this plays out,” he thought.

Liu Da, still hoping for a peaceful resolution, said, “Mr. Lin, our wages for four days amount to over nine thousand yuan. We won’t leave without it.”

Lin Tian scoffed, “I already said no. Scarface, I have things to handle. Show them out.”

A scarred man stepped forward, sneering at Su Lin, “I hate pretty boys. Scram while I’m in a good mood, or I’ll scar your face.”

Su Lin responded with a slight smile, “Try scarring my face and see if Luo Sihai dares to do the same.”

Scarface, puzzled, eyed Su Lin. These old thugs from Donghai City had a knack for sizing people up. Scarface became anxious, looking towards Lin Tian for guidance.

Lin Tian signaled with two fingers. Understanding the signal, Scarface’s expression turned fierce.

Thinking, “What do I have to fear with money on my side? He’s just another rich kid.”

“I don’t care who you are. You asked for this,” Scarface growled, picking up a chair to smash at Su Lin.

Before Su Lin could react, the chair was caught by a black hand. Then, to his surprise, a group of workers charged forward. He hadn’t expected these laborers to be so fierce, diving straight into the fray.

“Damn, you dare to rebel?”

“Ah! Damn it...”

The workers, strong from their laborious jobs, overwhelmed Scarface and the others with their sheer physical strength. A slap on the face left them dazed and buzzing.

Liu Da pushed through to Lin Tian, “Mr. Lin, I’m asking you one last time: are you going to pay or not?”
