Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 184 Taken advantage of

The girl leaned close to Chu Tian's ear, her breath was as sweet as orchid, and a faint scent of perfume penetrated his nostrils, making his heart slightly flutter.

"His name is Mr. Zhao. As for the rest..." The girl deliberately dragged out her voice, her eyes moving with a hint of cunning, "It depends on what benefits you can give me."

Chu Tian sneered in his heart. This woman, did she think he was a fool? However, since this woman knew the man surnamed Zhao, maybe she really knew something. Thinking of this, he raised a playful smile, put his arm around the girl's waist, and pulled her into his arms. The girl screamed and fell into his arms, and a faint fragrance came to her nose.

"As for the benefits, it depends on whether the beauty wants it or not." Chu Tian whispered in her ear with an ambiguous tone, and his hand dishonestly rubbed her waist gently.

The girl's body stiffened slightly, then she relaxed, and said in his ear with a sweet smile: "Okay, then I'll wait for Mr. Chu's 'benefits'."

Chu Tian laughed. This woman is quite good at taking advantage of others. He let go of the girl, picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Then he said, "Mr. Zhao, right? I will remember him. Beauty, we will stop here today. I will treat you to a drink some other day."

The girl covered her mouth and chuckled: "Then I'll wait for Mr. Chu's call." After saying that, she picked up her bag, stood up and left the bar.

Chu Tian looked at her back, with a sneer on his face. This woman was probably attracted by his money and wanted to get some benefits from him. However, Chu Tian was not so easy to fool. If she wanted to play, he would play with her.

He paid the bill, walked out of the bar, hailed a taxi, and gave the address of Lin Qingmeng's home.

His mind is now filled with Lin Qingmeng's eyes when she left. In that look, there was apology, helplessness, and... a hint of fear?

Fear? Chu Tian's heart tightened. Could it be that the man surnamed Zhao dared to do something to Lin Qingmeng?

Thinking of this, a nameless anger rose in his heart, and he wished he could rush to Lin Qingmeng right now and take her away from the man named Zhao.

The taxi stopped downstairs of Lin Qingmeng's house. Chu Tian paid the fare, got out of the car and looked up.

The lights were still on in the windows on the fifth floor.

Chu Tian took a deep breath, walked quickly into the corridor, climbed up to the fifth floor, and came to Lin Qingmeng's door. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard a quarrel coming from the house.

"Qingmeng, why don't you give me a chance? How am I inferior to that poor boy?" It was the voice of the man surnamed Zhao, with a hint of exasperation.

"Mr. Zhao, I've made it very clear, we are not suitable." Lin Qingmeng's voice was calm, but with a hint of unquestionable firmness.

"Not suitable? What's wrong with it? Am I not rich enough, or not handsome enough?" Mr. Zhao's voice became louder and louder. "Qingmeng, don't forget that your father's company is still waiting for my investment!"

"You..." Lin Qingmeng's voice finally carried a hint of anger, "Mr. Zhao, please respect yourself!"

"Self-respect? Haha, Lin Qingmeng, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit!" Mr. Zhao's voice suddenly became cold, "I'm telling you, if you don't agree to me today, I will make your father's company go bankrupt tomorrow!"

"You dare!" Lin Qingmeng said angrily.

"Do you think I dare?" Young Master Zhao sneered, "I'll give you one last chance. Do you agree or not?"

The room was silent for a few seconds. Just when Chu Tian thought Lin Qingmeng would compromise, he heard Lin Qingmeng's voice, firm and resolute:

"No!"

There was a loud "bang", as if something was smashed.

Chu Tian's heart tightened and he no longer cared about anything else. He kicked the door open and rushed in.

Chu Tian was stunned by the scene inside the room after he kicked the door open. Lin Qingmeng was sitting on the sofa in good condition, but her face was a little pale, while Mr. Zhao was wailing on the ground, holding his nose. There were several pieces of broken porcelain scattered on the ground, which looked like the fragments of a vase.

"Chu Tian?" Seeing Chu Tian suddenly appear, Lin Qingmeng stood up in surprise.

"Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?" Chu Tian walked quickly to Lin Qingmeng, looked her up and down, and asked nervously.

Lin Qingmeng shook her head. Before she could say anything, Master Zhao on the ground had already raised his head and glared at Chu Tian fiercely, "Who are you? How dare you ruin my good deeds!"

"I am the poor boy you mentioned!" Chu Tian sneered. "I am the poor boy you mentioned!" He pulled Lin Qingmeng behind him to block Mr. Zhao's fierce gaze. "Why, you want to fight?"

Young Master Zhao got up from the ground, pointed at Chu Tian and yelled: "Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that? Are you tired of living?"

"I don't care who you are!" Chu Tian grabbed the finger of Master Zhao that was pointing at him and twisted it with force. With a "crack", Master Zhao screamed like a pig being slaughtered and fell to his knees holding the twisted finger.

"You..." Young Master Zhao turned pale with pain, but he still insisted, "You dare to hit me? You're dead! My father is Zhao Tiancheng, if you dare to touch me, I will make sure you can't survive in Haicheng!"

Chu Tian stepped on Mr. Zhao's face and looked down at him with cold eyes. "Zhao Tiancheng?" He smiled coldly. "I'm going to say this today. Even if the king of heaven comes, he can't save you!"

He crushed Mr. Zhao under his feet hard, like crushing a disgusting cockroach, "Get out!"

Young Master Zhao got up in a panic, covering his fingers, looked at Chu Tian and Lin Qingmeng with resentment, and ran out stumblingly.

Chu Tian and Lin Qingmeng were the only ones left in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Chu Tian looked at Lin Qingmeng, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He really wanted to ask her what had happened and why she rejected Mr. Zhao's "kindness", but he was afraid of touching on her sad story.

Lin Qingmeng lowered her head, her hands twisted together nervously, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she was enduring something.

"you……"

"I……"

The two of them spoke at the same time, and stopped at the same time, looking at each other, and saw a hint of panic and... love in each other's eyes?

"You speak first." Chu Tian broke the silence first, his voice a little hoarse.

Lin Qingmeng took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, raised her head, and looked straight into Chu Tian's eyes, "Chu Tian, ​​I..."

However, at this moment, a rapid knock on the door suddenly sounded, interrupting Lin Qingmeng's unspoken words.

Chu Tian's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

The knocks on the door became more and more urgent, like the drumbeats before a storm, beating Chu Tian's heart again and again. He clenched his fists, and an inexplicable irritation surged into his heart.

"I'll go take a look." Chu Tian said in a deep voice and turned to walk towards the door.

Lin Qingmeng suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes, her eyes full of worry, "Could it be..."

Chu Tian held her hand with his backhand, and a hint of warmth came from his cold fingertips. He gave her a comforting look, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
