167: Don't want Lin Tian

"It's that guy!"

"He gave us five thousand yuan each and told us to harass this beauty so he could play the hero and save her."

"This knife is fake. I bought it on Pinduoduo for three yuan and five cents... it's a plastic fruit knife..."

"Big... Big Brother... please, let me go..."

"I have an eighty-year-old mother above and a three-year-old son below to take care of. I just went astray for a moment..."

The yellow-haired thug cried with a mournful face, trembling like chaff. Shaking, he handed the plastic fruit knife to Jiang Che.

Startled by Jiang Che, the yellow-haired thug sold out Lin Tian completely without hesitation.

After all, he and Lin Tian were just casual acquaintances; there was no need to offend such a big shot for him.

"That's right, everything Yellow-Hair said is the truth. Big Brother, please, just let us go like a fart!"

Seeing the yellow-haired thug concede, the remaining thugs quickly chimed in, adding many details.

"Beautiful Chen, you heard it all, right?"

"You were completely set up by someone!"

Jiang Che took the plastic fruit knife from the yellow-haired thug, fiddled with it, and handed it to Chen Xuewei with a playful expression and a teasing tone.

Chen Xuewei took the fruit knife and touched it gently. She could clearly feel the plastic material. Her pretty face turned cold as frost, and she was furious.

Faced with such a thing, no one would have a good temper, and Chen Xuewei was no exception.

The slight favor she felt for Lin Tian after he "saved" her instantly vanished.

At this moment, Chen Xuewei felt nothing but endless anger and disgust toward Lin Tian, along with deep fear and lingering dread.

If Jiang Che hadn't appeared in time to expose the other party's trick, wouldn't she have been kept in the dark forever?

The purpose of Lin Tian's actions was self-evident.

Going through all the trouble to find a few thugs to act—wasn't it just to pick her up?

At Lin University, Chen Xuewei had no shortage of suitors.

She had always kept her distance from all kinds of suitors.

Lin Tian was the first guy who made her feel disgusted and chilled to the bone.

This method of pursuing a girl was too low-class; he was truly shameless!

While feeling angry at Lin Tian's sleazy tactics, Chen Xuewei also felt a lot of gratitude toward Jiang Che.

If it weren't for Jiang Che, Chen Xuewei wouldn't dare to imagine what her fate would have been—being sold and still stupidly counting the money for someone else...

【Chen Xuewei feels grateful to you, emotion points + 6666...】

【Chen Xuewei is extremely disgusted with Lin Tian, emotion points + 7788...】

"What else do you have to say!"

Chen Xuewei's pretty face was flushed red. She was furious. She threw the plastic fruit knife in front of Lin Tian and questioned him angrily.

Even though she was very angry, her voice remained soft. Her accent was the unique Wu dialect of the Jiangnan region—soft, glutinous, and extremely pleasant to hear.

"These are just them talking nonsense!"

"I didn't conspire with them to frame you..."

"Don't you trust me, your savior, and instead choose to believe the lies of these thugs?"

Lin Tian put on a righteous facade, his tone carrying a hint of grievance. He acted very well, even resorting to moral kidnapping.

Although the temporary betrayal of these thugs made him extremely annoyed and he wanted to kill them to vent his anger, this situation was already within Lin Tian's expectations. He didn't feel too surprised.

From the very beginning, Lin Tian couldn't trust these thugs, which was why he chose a blind spot for surveillance to conduct the transaction and used cash.

Without substantial evidence, as long as he refused to admit it, what could they do?

"Woo-woo, woo-woo!"

Just as Lin Tian was trying his best to defend himself, a loud and harsh siren suddenly sounded at the entrance of the alley, coming from far to near.

Hearing the sirens, the yellow-haired thug and the others, out of instinctive muscle reaction, turned to run, but were kicked to the ground by the bodyguards Jiang Che brought, wailing repeatedly.

"Ouch, it hurts, wuu wuu wuu..."

The police car stopped. Pei Yunxi, dressed in a police uniform, heroic and tall, led her team out of the car and came before them.

Pei Yunxi's gaze first swept over the thugs lying on the ground wailing, then looked at Lin Tian standing opposite, and finally looked at Jiang Che and the young girl in a pure white dress standing beside him, who had an extraordinary appearance.

"Jiang Che, what's the situation?"

Pei Yunxi frowned slightly and asked hesitantly.

After meeting at the General Bureau last time, under the introduction of Bureau Chief Li Limin, she and Jiang Che got to know each other and exchanged contact information.

Just now, it was Jiang Che who dialed her private number to report the police, saying that someone was involved in organized crime activities on Tiannan Road at Lin University.

Therefore, Pei Yunxi rushed over with her people.

This is a society ruled by law, and any matter related to organized crime would receive high attention from the upper levels, so Pei Yunxi naturally did not dare to be careless.

Last time, Jiang Che went to the General Bureau to bail out Bai Huamei, which opened Pei Yunxi's mind. Following the clues, she really found out Bai Huamei's other hidden identity: a senior agent of the National Security Bureau.

One of their own!

No wonder Bai Huamei's name wasn't on the list for the "Sharp Sword" operation targeting the Linjiang criminal organizations.

Because of this, Pei Yunxi even wanted to invite Bai Huamei to dinner to apologize.

Considering that both of their identities were too sensitive, and they were in a special period when the Sharp Sword operation was about to launch, she gave up.

Seeing Pei Yunxi arrive, Lin Tian's face instantly stiffened, and dead memories suddenly began to attack him.

In his mind, the scenes of him running to the bathroom from the basketball court to the surveillance residence, his Incarnation as a jet fighter, gradually emerged, causing his face to change wildly. He felt nauseous and filled with grief and indignation.

"It was this group of thugs who were arranged by that guy to threaten and intimidate this classmate beside me."

Jiang Che pointed to Chen Xuewei beside him to signal, and roughly explained the ins and outs of the matter.

"Do you have any evidence?"

Pei Yunxi asked hesitantly, her expression suspicious as she scanned the faces of Lin Tian and the thugs.

Although this group of thugs had been trying hard to accuse him, out of a policeman's intuition, she was very suspicious of the unremarkable man opposite. She always felt that a dangerous aura emanated from him, and he felt somewhat familiar.

But these were just her intuitions and could not be used as evidence to arrest someone.

"Of course..."

Jiang Che smiled confidently and clapped his hands.

The bodyguard in black behind him immediately brought over a tablet computer and presented it with both hands.

Jiang Che took it, clicked on the video previously recorded by the hummingbird detection robot, and signaled Pei Yunxi and Chen Xuewei to watch it themselves.

In the video, Lin Tian was discussing various plan details with these thugs in a dark alley. The video gave close-ups of both Lin Tian and the yellow-haired thug, and the scene of the payment was also filmed clearly.
