Lin Tian looked at the swaying hips hidden under the sweatpants and smirked, "Interesting! Quite aloof, huh?"
As he walked in, Lin Tian saw Ruyan wearing black-rimd glasses, constantly listening to a young man say sothing.
But from Ruyan's furrowed brow, it was clear she was quite annoyed.
"Lin Tian, you've arrived?" Ruyan unintentionally saw Lin Tian and imdiately lit up with a smile, as if seeing a savior.
"Yeah, i!" In front of the outsider, Lin Tian called out politely, his dark eyes glancing at the young man sitting across from her.
The young man was none other than Bai Jiaming, whom he had t once at the Bai Family's Wangfu Village.
"What's going on?" Lin Tian sat down next to Ruyan, across from Bai Jiaming.
Bai Jiaming's delicate face always had a faint smile, but the mont Lin Tian sat down, that smile stopped abruptly.
"Lin Tian, this person claims to be Bai Shishi's brother and wants to temporarily take over as the CEO of Xianglong Tea House, and he's asking to hand over the company's financial seal!"
Ruyan said helplessly, "I don't know if it's true or not!"
After listening to Ruyan's words, Lin Tian suddenly realized why Ruyan was so anxious on the phone, this was indeed a big deal.
Not to ntion Bai Shishi's disappearance, rely handing over the company's financial seal casually isn't sothing easily done.
Let alone the statent that Bai Jiaming wanted to temporarily take over as CEO of Xianglong Tea House!
This obviously seed like an attempt to take over Xianglong Tea House.
"Here's the situation; my sister Bai Shishi was summoned ho by my dad to prepare for marriage according to our family's rules, so I've temporarily inherited Xianglong Tea House, and this is also my sister's intention!" Bai Jiaming wasn't forgetting to explain to Lin Tian.
If Lin Tian hadn't been to the Bai Family, he might have believed what Bai Jiaming was saying was true.
But Lin Tian had indeed been to the Bai Family, and did he not know Bai Shishi's opinion on those godforsaken family rules?
Bai Shishi staying ho to prepare for marriage?
Handing Xianglong Tea House over to her cousin Bai Jiaming?
Suddenly, Lin Tian wanted to laugh, laugh at Bai Jiaming's audacity to say such words.
To Bai Shishi, Xianglong Tea House was like her own child, raised for so long, reached the age to enjoy life, and then handed over to soone else?
Is there such a fool in the world?
"You're my sister's boyfriend from last ti, aren't you?" Bai Jiaming asked tentatively upon seeing Lin Tian's sullen face.
"Oh~ you've misunderstood, I'm just an employee at your sister's company!" Lin Tian gave a wry smile, "Bai Jiaming? I shouldn't have rembered that na wrong, right?"
"That's correct!" Bai Jiaming nodded, knowing Lin Tian was about to speak.
"What you're saying must be true, we all believe it!" Lin Tian's first sentence left Ruyan dumbstruck and made Bai Jiaming inwardly pleased, truly these people had worrying intelligence levels.
"So you're agreeing to hand over the financial seal?" Bai Jiaming's voice was tinged with excitent.
"Hold on, let finish!"
Lin Tian paused and continued, "Mr. Bai is currently missing, regardless of whether she's at the Bai Family ho or sowhere else, I believe she will show up again. At that ti, as long as Miss Bai nods in agreent to give Xianglong Tea House to you, we'll hand over the company's seals without hesitation!"
"You don't believe what I said?" Bai Jiaming's face darkened, clearly displeased.
"I said in my first sentence, what you're saying should be true, we all believe it!"
Ruyan's lips curled upward, suppressing laughter, Lin Tian truly spoke with a sneer, clearly not believing it, yet saying it so regally.
"This is a matter of the Bai Family, you're just an employee, you don't have a say!" Bai Jiaming tried to intimidate the two with another blow.
"No matter if it's a Bai Family matter or a national matter, as employees, we must be earnest and responsible towards our work!"
Lin Tian looked at Ruyan, "As a mber of the company, casually handing over the company's seal to others? Is this being responsible for work?"
"Even if Mr. Bai truly lets you beco the company president, then you can fire the both of us, but without Mr. Bai's command, we won't just hand over the seals!" Lin Tian stated firmly.
"So you're forcing to get rough?" Bai Jiaming frowned, slamming his right hand on the coffee table with such force that pens on the table rolled around.
"The more you act like this, the less I believe what you're saying!" Since they were about to tear off the facade, Lin Tian no longer needed to pretend he believed him but wouldn't give.
"You never trusted !" Bai Jiaming coldly laughed, "This is a matter of the Bai Family, I advise soone like you to not interfere!"
"Or it would be tragic if you got hit by a car on the street!"
The threat was blatant and unvarnished, sparking a fla within Lin Tian.
"Watch your words, or you'll slip a disc, if your sister knew what you just said, I wonder how she'd feel?" Lin Tian stared intently at Bai Jiaming's eyes.
People can lie, but their eyes won't lie.
In Bai Jiaming's eyes, a peculiar glint flashed, mixed with fear and worry.
"You won't ever see her again, she went ho!"
Bai Jiaming maintained his composure, "If you don't hand over the seal, I'll have to call soone to find it!"
"Clap! Clap!" Bai Jiaming clapped his hands twice, the golden watch on his wrist dazzling, and a crowd packed in the hallway began to move toward the room at the sound.
"What? Planning to snatch it openly?" Lin Tian looked at the pressing crowd, feeling the situation was tricky.
"Don't worry, they won't get it, the seal isn't even here!" Ruyan suddenly spoke, stomping hard on Lin Tian's foot under the coffee table to remind him.
Lin Tian stayed calm, understanding the reminder from Ruyan, nervously saying, "Why did you say everything outright? Now great, they're going to look elsewhere!"
"Are you stupid? Why did you say everything?" Ruyan was so angry she stomped her foot, and her acting was such that even Lin Tian doubted where the company's seal actually was.
"Thanks for your kind reminder, but I won't accompany you!" Bai Jiaming snorted coldly, stood up, and left with his group.
"Phew!" Once they all left, Lin Tian slumped down onto the sofa, drenched in cold sweat, taking a deep breath.
"Who exactly is this Lin Tian?" Ruyan imdiately asked upon seeing Lin Tian seed to know him well.
"Let's not talk about that for now; where's the company seal?"
"I have it here; I said those things just to trick him!"
Near vermilion makes one red, near ink makes one black; following Lin Tian for a while, Ruyan could be called an actress, even Lin Tian was confused.
"As long as you have it, keep it safe; I suspect Bai Shishi's disappearance is related to him!" Lin Tian spoke each word carefully.
