The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 8

[Chapter 8: A Hero Saves a Beauty]

“What’s the commotion downstairs?”

Lin Tian stood up and pretended to look out the window, but the window blocked his view. He could only see the crowds of people in the hall below. It seemed that something had happened.

Unable to see what was going on, Lin Tian simply walked out of the private room and prepared to go downstairs to take a look.

This was his shop after all. If someone was making trouble under his property, they might be looking for death.

However, as soon as Lin Tian went downstairs, he saw a familiar figure.

Wasn’t this Tang Chuchu who was in Tianxiang Pavilion yesterday?

Tang Chuchu was struggling to avoid the hands of several waiters at this time, and there were already many scratches on her face.

“What’s going on?” Lin Tian asked a passerby who was watching the excitement.

There were already three layers of people surrounding the place, and Lin Tian couldn’t get in for a while. He could only ask the people next to him to understand what happened.

“Something happened to this girl’s family. Her father died suddenly last night. She has no money for the funeral, so she can only come here to do some odd jobs. She wants the shopkeeper to advance her wages.”

“Yes, yes, she is such a miserable girl. But this shopkeeper Liu is really not a human being. He bullies the weak on weekdays, and today he wants to take this girl away for ten taels of silver.”

“Bah, you are nothing! You are just relying on someone in your family to work for the Lin family. Why are you so arrogant?”

Lin Tian just asked, and someone next to him talked about the matter in a hurry.

Hearing this, Lin Tian glanced at Tang Chuchu and found that her eyes were red, her face was pale, and her clothes were plain, but they had been torn to pieces.

“Stop, let the person go!”

After all, there was a feeling of drinking, and Tang Chuchu also spoke for him yesterday. Lin Tian immediately asked Lin Kang to block the crowd and shouted loudly.

The waiters found that the person who came out was actually Lin Tian. They looked at the shopkeeper Liu with some hesitation and let him go half-heartedly.

“What’s going on?”

Lin Tian glared at him. He had just heard what the onlookers had said, but he still wanted to hear what Liu Fugui had to say.

Liu Fugui had never thought that Lin Tian would come down from the private room for no reason, and he didn’t know how to get away with it.

But then he thought that this young master was just here to watch the fun, so he immediately put on a flattering smile.

“Young master, why did you come down? This is none of your business. I’ll have someone pour you a few glasses of good wine. Please go back first!”

Liu Fugui thought that Lin Tian was someone who was easy to fool, and he pushed Lin Tian to go back upstairs like he was coaxing a child, and not to get involved in these things.

But Lin Tian was not someone who was easy to fool. When Liu Fugui came up, Lin Tian dodged him and winked at Lin Kang.

Lin Kang immediately understood, and immediately stepped forward and slapped Liu Fugui. Five finger marks were immediately printed on his huge fat face.

“You bastard, my young master asked you what happened, and you want to fool me like this? How dare you rob a woman in broad daylight?” Lin Kang said angrily, which made Liu Fugui stunned.

Lin Tian nodded with satisfaction. Lin Kang was the one who was more convenient to use.

Liu Fugui never thought that Lin Tian was not easy to fool. He was a little dizzy after being beaten. He rubbed his hands impatiently and tried to find words.

“Don’t think about quibbling. You clearly want to take advantage of others. How can I tolerate you doing something that disgraces the reputation of the Lin family!?”

Lin Tian went up and kicked Liu Fugui to the ground, and asked the people behind him to protect Tang Chuchu.

Tang Chuchu changed her arrogant look just now. Maybe she was frightened by this sudden change and she was a little stupid.

Liu Fugui saw that his intentions had been known by Lin Tian, so he didn’t care at the moment. He was too lazy to do those superficial efforts. He just wanted to drive Lin Tian away quickly.

“Master, please stop making trouble. Didn’t I want to give this girl to you because she’s pretty? Why are you blaming me?”

Liu Fugui was talking nonsense, and the people around him recognized Lin Tian as the useless prodigal son. For a while, everyone was talking about it.

Lin Tian’s face turned black in an instant. He originally wanted to give Liu Fugui a better end, but he didn’t expect that this man would be so ungrateful. Don’t blame him for being ruthless.

“Bah, you dog, you want to frame my master again. The master came to you to check the accounts today, and you only brought a book of flowing ghost paintings. What’s the meaning? You dare to quibble here!? I think you have lost your master in your eyes!”

Lin Kang couldn’t help it, and stepped forward to kick Liu Fugui again. Liu Fugui was kicked so hard that he couldn’t say anything for a while.

“I am the master and you are the servant. Let’s not talk about the rebellion. Manager Liu, you have enriched yourself and robbed the woman. Fulin Restaurant can no longer tolerate you. Pack up your things and get out!” Lin Tian said.

He already had Liu Fugui’s indenture in his hand, and Liu Fugui’s life and death were in his hands.

Everyone began to whisper to each other after hearing this.

Although Lin Tian was a well-known loser, he was also a serious master after all. Lin Tian asked Liu Fugui for the account book, and he just fooled him, which was a taboo. If it happened to an ordinary person, he would have been sent away long ago.

“You have no right to drive me away. I am the shopkeeper of this Fulin Restaurant!” When Liu Fugui heard that Lin Tian was going to fire him, he immediately became anxious and stood up regardless of anything.

He didn’t know at this time that the master of Fulin Restaurant had already become Lin Tian.

Seeing that Liu Fugui was going to cheat and not leave, Lin Tian directly winked at the person behind him.

Immediately, someone came forward to pick up Liu Fugui and threw him out of the door without mercy.

“You are not now, and… I am your master, do you think I am qualified?” Lin Tian walked in front of Liu Fugui and said condescendingly.

It can be seen that Liu Fugui’s usual style of doing things is really unpopular. To this day, no one is willing to plead for him.

Instead, there are many people who take advantage of his misfortune .

“I didn’t expect that Manager Liu would still be like this. He usually deducts our wages and doesn’t allow us to say anything. I don’t know what the next manager will do.”

“Master Lin looks confused at ordinary times, but he is still humane at the critical moment!”

“Tsk, who knows if he took the opportunity to save the beauty and take advantage of this girl!”

People around him talked about Lin Tian’s behavior, but they had to say that removing Liu Fugui was very popular.

“Then I really acted as a hero to save the beauty?”

Lin Tian smiled, walked to Tang Chuchu, and stretched out his hand to pull her up.

Tang Chuchu bit her lip. She didn’t expect that she would be so embarrassed when she saw Lin Tian again, so she lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at him.

“Thank you.” Tang Chuchu thanked him in a low voice and couldn’t help shrinking back.
