Lin Tian said with a laugh: "Why are you hitting ? I just ca out of the police station and went through quite a bit of trouble."
Bai Shishi was unimpressed, pouted and said, "You're always giving others trouble; who could possibly trouble you? You think I'll believe that?"
"I'm not lying to you. I was locked in the interrogation room all night yesterday, without food or even a bathroom break."
Bai Shishi couldn't help but tilt her head, "Really?"
"Would I lie to you about sothing like this?"
"No bathroom break..." Bai Shishi's gaze gradually drifted downward, and then her cheeks imdiately turned red, "Holding it in all night... You didn't hurt yourself, did you? How about we get you checked at the hospital?"
Lin Tian looked at her face, which was just too adorable. He couldn't help but laugh, "Hahaha, don't worry about it. Your happiness for the rest of your life is intact. I don't need to go to the hospital. Did you forget? I'm a disciple of the ancient dicine master."
Seeing him with this cheeky grin, Bai Shishi knew she had been tricked. She was both ashad and annoyed, gave a soft snort, and turned away again.
"When you were playing the ga just now, were you imagining the monsters were ?"
"That's right! I'll beat you to a pulp!"
"I think... you might as well hit directly to let off so steam?"
As he spoke, Lin Tian directly lifted Bai Shishi from the chair.
"Ah~ what are you doing!" Bai Shishi instinctively held onto Lin Tian's neck, afraid of falling.
Bai Shishi said, "We're at the company!"
Lin Tian sat down on the chair with Bai Shishi in his arms and said, "What's there to be afraid of at the company? You're the chairwoman; who wouldn't knock?"
"..." Bai Shishi just felt her cheeks getting hot, in fact, her face was now completely red to the roots of her neck.
Other than the ti they slept together, this was their first ti being so intimate. It was all too sudden! She wasn't prepared at all!
Bai Shishi lowered her head and whispered, "You'd better put down..."
Lin Tian chuckled and said, "Weren't you going to vent? Hit a couple of tis, and I'll let you down."
Suddenly, Bai Shishi bit down on Lin Tian's shoulder.
"Hiss~"
Hearing Lin Tian inhale sharply, Bai Shishi released her bite and asked, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt."
"Then why does your face look so pained?"
"If I don't act like it hurts a bit, how would you vent?"
Bai Shishi nodded after hearing that, then bit Lin Tian's shoulder again, this ti with more force.
"Hiss~ Ah!"
About five seconds later, Bai Shishi let go and asked, "Does it hurt this ti?"
"It really hurts!"
Bai Shishi pressed her red lips together and laughed.
"But I still don't understand, how did I make you angry?"
"You still have the nerve to ask? You were taken to jail yesterday, and I was trying to find out how you were doing, but I couldn't find anything out! I knew sothing was wrong, so I brought in the best lawyer in Kanyue City and discussed it for half a day. I didn't expect that heartless guy like you to co out today, and besides sending a text, you didn't even make a call. Your phone was busy the whole ti! You didn't even think to call to say you're safe? And I know you were flirting with a girl downstairs earlier!"
Lin Tian couldn't help but smile. This was the first ti he had seen such an adorable side of Bai Shishi.
"I was planning to call you first, but just as I was about to, Qingcheng called in. I figured I'd just co to the company to see you instead."
"Really?"
"I'm sitting right here, so of course it's true!"
"Alright then, I won't be mad at you this ti." Bai Shishi nodded, then said, "But next ti, no flirting with those female employees when you pass through the first floor! Next month, I'll replace all those employees with n!"
"I wasn't flirting with them..."
"I saw it on the surveillance!"
Lin Tian could only smile wryly.
At that mont, the door to Bai Shishi's office was suddenly pushed open. i Ruyan walked in, seeing Bai Shishi sitting on Lin Tian's lap, and froze for a mont. Then she quickly slamd the door shut with a 'bang'!
Having such a thing witnessed by her closest friend, Bai Shishi's face, which had just returned to normal, turned red again. She quickly disentangled herself from Lin Tian, tidying her clothes as she asked, "Didn't you say anyone would knock before coming in?!"
Faced with Bai Shishi's questioning, Lin Tian chuckled awkwardly and said, "I forgot about Ruyan... A door can't stop her, luckily we weren't doing anything else."
"Anything else? You wish!" Bai Shishi pinched Lin Tian's arm hard with her delicate hand.
Lin Tian grimaced and asked, "Why do you won all know this trick?"
"Hmph, letting it slip? How many won have used this trick on you?"
"Uh... Haha, well..."
...
After joking around for a while, Bai Shishi's anger subsided, and she returned to her usual intelligent and charming self.
"Let's talk business, how did you get out on your own? It seems like soone was out to get you." Bai Shishi asked.
"Indeed, soone was. It was those ancient families from Luoyan Dock. They wanted to beat up and extract sothing from , but they're too weak, and I ended up beating them instead..."
Bai Shishi interrupted, "Get to the point!"
"I am getting to the point. I beat them into submission, then negotiated a deal with them, and we turned enemies into friends."
Bai Shishi looked at him in disbelief, "Just like that?"
Lin Tian shrugged, "Just like that."
"What did you trade with them that they let you off so easily? Or rather, let Qiansii off the hook?"
Lin Tian smiled and explained the matter of the formula to Bai Shishi. Bai Shishi didn't understand cultivation but could tell that the formulas were valuable, and knew Lin Tian's action was mutually beneficial, so she didn't ask further.
What Bai Shishi didn't expect was that such a difficult group of people could be so easily settled by Lin Tian with just a few formulas.
"What are you going to do about the Wang Family? Pin everything on them? That might not be easy." Bai Shishi asked.
"It's all about trying. After all, they've been up to no good, so there's a chance." After a pause, Lin Tian said, "Even if we can't pin it on them, the Wang Family can't possibly be our match, can they?"
Bai Shishi understood the ins and outs more than Lin Tian. She thought for a mont and said, "Don't be fooled by the fact that we swallowed half of the Wang Family last ti. Actually, a starved cal is still bigger than a horse. In two months, they've expanded into many projects, and their strength shouldn't be underestimated."
