The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 167: Family Rules


Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders, seemingly indifferent: "A loss is a loss!"

Bai Tianlong, seeing Lin Tian didn't argue, looked at Long who was still lying on the ground: "Someone, take Long to the hospital!"

Lin Tian explained: "No need, I controlled the force of my kick just now. It'll hurt, but it won't cripple him!"

The Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth Shirt, to put it simply, is a form of Hard Qi Gong, relying on the whole body's muscles to ward off harm.

The idea of Long letting Lin Tian make three moves was out of confidence, thinking he had nothing to fear, but Lin Tian is someone who doesn't play by the rules!

Why should I hit the hard spot?

Instead, I'll hit the soft spot.

"Someone, carry Long out!"

Bai Tianlong gave Lin Tian a meaningful look. If he thought Lin was using dirty tricks before, now it seems Lin was doing it on purpose.

Bai Shishi, standing by, asked, "What if he doesn't pass the test?"

Bai Tianlong said, "If possible, we'll have another match next."

"Forget it, I don't want to play anymore!"

Lin Tian waved his hand. This was the Bai Family's territory, even if he won, if Bai Tianlong didn't declare it, it'd still be a loss.

What's the point of this?

What's the excitement in fighting?

It's obviously just being unreasonable.

"Today is father's birthday, why not have the contest another day!"

Bai Shishi didn't want to fight anymore either; if Lin Tian did win, things would be difficult!

"Alright!"

Bai Tianlong nodded, his deep eyes looked at Bai Shishi and then at Bai Jiaming: "Shishi, actually there's one more thing I want to announce today!"

Bai Shishi didn't sense anything unusual: "What is it?"

But Lin Tian, standing by, suddenly felt the atmosphere in the room change, and everyone held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

"Hand over the Xianglong Tea House!"

Bai Tianlong spoke shockingly.

"Why?"

Bai Shishi's beautiful eyes frowned, her tone completely changed.

"According to the Bai Family's lineage rules, women cannot inherit family businesses, first to prevent the loss of family wealth, and second for the long-term prosperity of the family!"

Bai Tianlong knew Bai Shishi would be angry, but there was nothing he could do, this was the family rule, an age-old family rule.

"I won't!"

Bai Shishi almost said without thinking.

"You're not young anymore, and of marriage age, there's no need to manage Xianglong Tea House. The family will support you financially if you back down!"

Bai Tianlong persuaded Bai Shishi again, reluctant to make things difficult for himself as a father.

"I just won't!"

Bai Shishi stubbornly refused, "Everyone knew what kind of business Xianglong Tea House was back then?"

"A half-dead entertainment club on the verge of closing? None of you wanted it back then but I worked hard to develop Xianglong Tea House to what it is today, and you say take it back just like that?"

Bai Shishi's beautiful eyes brimmed with tears, wasn't this blatant bullying?

Bai Jiaming, standing by, kindly reminded: "Sister, it's the Bai Family's lineage rules!"

"I just want to ask who is supposed to inherit Xianglong Tea House?"

Bai Shishi shouted frantically in front of all the relatives of the Bai Family.

"Sister, it's me!"

Bai Jiaming said solemnly, "I'm a direct male descendant of the Bai Family, Xianglong Tea House will be inherited by me eventually; rest assured, sister, I will definitely make Xianglong Tea House bigger and stronger!"

Bai Jiaming spoke well, but his eyes revealed a gleam of greed, which Lin Tian noticed precisely.

But since it was the Bai Family's business, and Bai Shishi had previously told him to speak less, Lin Tian wisely watched the drama silently.

"So why did no one inherit Xianglong Tea House when it was a club about to close back then?"

Bai Shishi had put too much effort into Xianglong Tea House, it was like a child she had raised with her own hands, right when it was time to enjoy its success, she has to hand it over to others.

"Because you are a woman, you will eventually marry, and your children will bear an outside surname!"

Bai Tianlong's face was stern, Bai Shishi's intense reaction was beyond his expectations.

Bai Shishi cursed angrily: "Your patriarchal feudal thinking is disgusting!"

Bai Tianlong slapped the armrest of the chair, scolding: "Watch your mouth!"

Bai Jiaming also took the opportunity to persuade: "Sister, you and brother-in-law can live a sweet life without lacking money, isn't such a life great?"

"Is it because I brought a boyfriend home today that you're doing this?"

Bai Shishi suddenly felt that having Lin Tian pretend to be her boyfriend today was a mistake.

"Whether you bring a boyfriend home or not, this was bound to happen sooner or later!"

Bai Tianlong looked at the tearful Bai Shishi and sighed: "Jiaming, study with your sister for a period, and when the time is right you will take over Xianglong Tea House!"

"Thank you, Father!"

Bai Jiaming said respectfully, a fleeting trace of triumph flashing in his eyes.

"I haven't agreed yet!"

Bai Shishi was truly panicking, shouting frantically, she really didn't want to give Xianglong Tea House to anyone!

It was created by her, why give it to someone else?

When she was painstakingly starting the business, how many people wanted to fight for it? If anyone wanted back then, she would definitely have given it, but now she definitely won't!

Bai Shishi made up her mind: "If it's because of the Bai Family's lineage, I will leave the Bai Family!"

Bai Tianlong, furious, stood up: "Nonsense, you crazy girl, what are you talking about?"

Lin Tian, who had been silent, originally didn't want to get involved in the Bai Family's affairs, but this group was too much, so many men bullying a woman, what is this?

And your stupid lineage rules are really enough...

"Hey, I say, aren't you all a bit too much?" Lin Tian suddenly spoke up.

"Shut up, this is none of your business!"

Bai Tianlong glared at Lin Tian: "You will have the right to speak when you become a son-in-law of the Bai Family!"

"Alright, alright~!"

Lin Tian was amused by Bai Tianlong's words!

Son-in-law of the Bai Family?

You think I care?

"First, let me clarify that I am not Bai Shishi's boyfriend?"

Lin Tian's dark eyes swept around: "I'm actually an employee of the Xianglong Tea House company, currently Bai's personal assistant!"

"I didn't mean to deceive everyone, please let me explain first!"

Lin Tian glanced at the tearful Bai Shishi: "Today was originally the Patriarch's birthday, Miss Bai wanted to make you happy, so she had me pretend to be her boyfriend!"

"What?"

The surrounding people suddenly froze, all eyes turning to Lin Tian, wasn't this clearly making fun of people?

"Truthfully, I feel you people are bullying, everyone here knows the current situation of the Xianglong Tea House!"

"But such a company has cost Miss Bai countless efforts, she worked overtime and stayed up many nights, she's been busy entertaining in the wind and rain outside for countless days!"

"It's hard enough for a woman in the business world, but Bai Shishi made Xianglong Tea House what it is today and even managed a cosmetic company with some success!"
