Chapter 138 Tang Zi Cheng Pleads



“I... is this true?”

A long while had passed. Li Cong Tian breathed in deeply, filling his lungs. His eyes on Tang Zi Cheng and Tang Yien were alarmed. His face still showed traces of shock from before.

Not only him, but his wife’s face was the same. She was breathing hard as though she could not believe what she had just heard from Tang Zi Cheng’s recount.

Tang Yien sighed. The Lis’ reactions upon hearing her husband’s account did not surprise her.

This was because anyone who heard the story would all react the same way!

Tang Zi Cheng nodded, his face pleading.

“Cong Tian, this older brother can only ask you to help. Can you ask Li Lin to talk to Bai Chen to forgive us? I beg of you. If we got the vaccine, I... no, the whole Tang family will owe you one big favour.”

After hearing these words from Tang Zi Cheng, Li Cong Tiang and Li Yu could not stop their thumping hearts. It was clear that all of this was true!

‘N... no wonder Little Lin did not want to marry Xi Dong when we had no idea he was just scum.’

Li Cong Tian breathed in deeply before thinking back to a few days ago.

At that time, he had not considered these reasons at all. Why would his only daughter not want to get engaged to and marry Xi Dong, who was the Xi family’s heir? Both his status and looks were superb beyond comparison.

But now, he understood. His daughter did not care for Xi Dong because Bai Chen who had accompanied her was much greater than that!

Even though he might not be as good-looking, his background was much greater. Even one of the five big families did not dare to have a dispute with him!

Her daughter’s eyes in choosing a man were as sharp as fine blades!

Li Cong Tian could not help but think this way. He knew very well that the big families in Beijing were not the most powerful in the country.

They could not just wield their power any way they saw fit.

General Huang Qian was the one who had told him this. But what power was bigger than that of the five families, he did not know.

Power great enough to rival that of the five big families was limited. Surely, one force was the military. Other than that, there were the police and the government!

Li Cong Tian looked down whilst pondering things before looking up at the Tang couple again. His eyes showed that he had decided to help them.

“We are not strangers, Zi Cheng. Let me talk to my daughter. I cannot promise anything, though.”

Li Yu, who was standing beside him had also decided to help, even though she had not said anything. Because her relationship with Tang Yien could be considered a friendship.

Regarding Bai Chen, she had the same thoughts as her husband.

‘Our daughter has such good taste in men.’ Li Yu could not help but be happy.

She was happy being a mother with a daughter who knew how to select a good man for herself.

“Thank you so much, Cong Tian!”

Tang Zi Cheng was happy and relieved yet still slightly worried. After all, nothing could guarantee that Bai Chen would forgive them.

Anyway, this was already much better than before.

Tang Yien shared that sentiment. She was dying, so of course, she was afraid. When a tiny ray of hope shone through, she could not help but feel relieved.

“Thank you in advance, Cong Tian, Yu.” Tang Yien expressed her gratitude.

“This is nothing. Let’s all go inside,” Li Cong Tian replied with a smile.

He thought that this matter was more important than welcoming guests, so he decided to go inside to speak to Li Lin.

The four of them entered the hall where the anniversary party was taking place.

Meanwhile, Bai Chen was sitting at one of the forty-odd tables in the hall with food and wine. It was clearly one of Li Lin’s parents’ anniversary party’s tables.

The hall was enormous. There were quite a few guests as well, more than at Liu Ze’s party which Bai Chen had attended with Long Xu In that other time.

Beside him was Li Lin. She looked at him very sternly.

“You should not be drinking wine!”

Bai Chen looked at her and gave her a half-smile. A glass of wine was in his hand.

“Why not?” he asked, then took another sip.

He had drinking skills, so no matter how much he drank, he would not get drunk.

“I don’t want you to!” Li Lin looked at him again. She still seemed cute to him even though she was in a bad mood.

Bai Chen set his glass down. There was only one-third of the glass left.

“It’s just a few drinks. There is no harm in that.”

He was weirdly happy when he got to spend time with Li Lin. It appeared Bai Chen liked her more every time he met her.

“Hmph.” Li Lin let out a sound from her nose. She looked at him angrily again before giving up. “Up to you!”

She turned to look at the food on the table before picking up a piece of fried beef with her chopsticks.

“Is it good?” Bai Chen asked.

“Of course it is. All these dishes were prepared by a top chef my family hired.” Li Lin was chewing the piece of beef. She looked quite lovely doing it.

She showed a pride-filled expression to Bai Chen. “You must have never had anything like this before!”

Bai Chen could not help but laugh. Of course, he had never tried these foods before.

But after he met Long Xu In, he had gotten a chance to eat at a top restaurant where the dishes were prepared by top chefs.

Li Lin did not care about his laughter. She continued eating. She shared the happiness that Bai Chen felt in her heart.

She felt the same way about him. Each time she met him, she liked him more and more.

Both of them were feeling the same way.

“Bai Chen, you scum!”

While the two of them were enjoying the moment, a voice rang out from a few tables away. A pair of eyes filled with rage were fixed upon Bai Chen.
