Lin Tian spoke with great authority, and his expression was equally domineering.
Faced with a traitor like Xiaogang who will do anything to betray you, you think of compromising with him?
The more you compromise, the more he'll bully you.
On this point, Lin Tian could guarantee that if Bai Shishi spent a night with Xiaogang, there'd definitely be a second and third night...
People like this will take an inch and demand a mile, they're shameless; otherwise, how could they betray their leader?
"It's easy to say, but how do you actually do it?"
Bai Shishi rolled her eyes at Lin Tian, speaking in a tone of irritation.
It's easy to say, but hard to do. Fights require people and money, right?
Even though Bai Shishi isn't short of money now, she lacks people.
Xiaogang just took away almost a third of Xianglong's people.
Even though Bai Shishi still has two-thirds of the people, she's now too cautious to make a reckless move.
No one knows if Xiaogang has allied with "Laughing Tiger" Du Dahai.
If the two of them joined forces, attacking first would be equivalent to committing suicide.
Even if Laughing Tiger Du Dahai and Xiaogang haven't teamed up, taking down Xiaogang would cost Bai Shishi half her people.
By then, if Laughing Tiger Du Dahai plays the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, it would mean Xianglong would perish due to internal strife.
While Du Dahai could profit effortlessly without lifting a finger.
"I don't want to fight in a way where I harm a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred myself!" Bai Shishi reminded.
Lin Tian smiled slightly, confidently saying, "Miss Bai, have you heard this saying?"
"What saying?"
"Taking the head of a general from amidst a hundred thousand troops!" Lin Tian snorted coldly, "If Xiaogang is dead, things would be much simpler!"
"The people who left with Xiaogang, except for a few die-hards, mostly left because Xiaogang promised them things Miss Bai couldn't give. So they followed him away from Xianglong!"
"But once Xiaogang is dead, his promises won't mean a thing, and if Miss Bai shows clemency, those people will surely come back!"
"Besides, even if those people don't return, it doesn't matter. We have money, and with money comes people. I refuse to believe that if Miss Bai offers high wages, no one would come to work for her!"
Lin Tian's speech immediately broadened Bai Shishi's thinking in many ways.
This is perhaps the difference between male and female thinking.
Women always think a lot, which often turns out to be useless.
Men, on the other hand, think less, and when it comes to solving problems, they're straightforward and direct.
Sometimes, you just need to simplify complicated matters, making it much easier to resolve.
If you handle a complicated issue in a complicated way,
Ha ha, it'll surely exhaust you.
"So should we deal with Xiaogang first?" Bai Shishi asked tentatively.
"No rush!" Lin Tian shook his head, "Let me handle what Wang Quan requested first. After all, that's national business, and ours is personal business!"
After all, without the nation, we wouldn't have our homes!
To this, Bai Shishi nodded in agreement and continued to ask, "Are you confident in dealing with Xiaogang? If not, I can have Ruyan assist you!"
"Don't forget, Xiaogang was once defeated by me!" Lin Tian shrugged indifferently.
"That was back then, when Xiaogang had few people under him. Since he dares to betray me now, he surely has a few loyal experts with him!"
After careful consideration, Lin Tian agreed with Bai Shishi's suggestion, "Then let Mei Ruyan help, better safe than sorry!"
"Okay!"
Bai Shishi nodded, "Then handle Wang Quan's driver issue quickly!"
"I'll do it today during the day!"
Lin Tian's dark eyes looked at Bai Shishi's tired, pretty face, "Alright, since things are settled, Miss Bai, you should get some rest. Otherwise, you'll really get ugly!"
"Ugly is as ugly does!" Bai Shishi said indifferently, but there was a warm smile at the corner of her mouth.
"If you become ugly, no one will want you!"
"If no one wants me, I'll just cling to you every day. If I can't get married, neither will I let you marry!" Bai Shishi snorted coldly, but solving the matter made her smile broadly.
"Alright, Miss Bai, get some rest!" Lin Tian waved his hand and was about to leave.
"By the way, go and find Mei Ruyan and discuss the specifics with her!" Before Lin Tian left the door, Bai Shishi reminded.
In Mei Ruyan's office, Lin Tian pushed the door open and got scolded right away, "Don't you have hands? Don't know how to knock before entering?"
"Sorry, I have something urgent to discuss with you!" Compared to Bai Shishi's friendliness, Mei Ruyan was cold and unapproachable.
No wonder she's so beautiful yet hasn't got a boyfriend.
"What's the matter?" Mei Ruyan continued staring at the surveillance screen without even looking up.
"Miss Bai has decided to make a move against Xiaogang. I came to discuss the plan with you!"
Lin Tian said cheerfully, his tone as friendly as possible, afraid of upsetting Mei Ruyan.
"Are you really going to take action?" Hearing Lin Tian's words, Mei Ruyan felt as if yesterday had slipped by in a blur.
Xiaogang and Mei Ruyan were once hailed as Bai Shishi's right and left arms.
Now, they're about to kill each other. Reality really played a huge joke.
"Yes, I'll be responsible for taking down Xiaogang, if any unexpected situations occur, you just need to back me up!" Lin Tian explained the plan to Mei Ruyan in detail.
The only thing Mei Ruyan felt relieved about was not having to personally kill Xiaogang.
Because when it came to that, Mei Ruyan feared she wouldn't be able to do it.
"I got it!" Strangely, Mei Ruyan's heart calmed down instead.
The reason she lashed out when Lin Tian entered was entirely because he had stirred up the matter of Xiaogang's betrayal.
Between the fish and the bear paw, Mei Ruyan didn't know how to choose.
Now, with Bai Shishi's command, everything seemed clear.
"If there's nothing else, I'll get going!" In Mei Ruyan's office, Lin Tian didn't want to stay a second longer.
"Wait!"
Mei Ruyan called Lin Tian to stop.
"Is there anything else?"
"Do you have time tonight?" Mei Ruyan asked.
"Why? Are you asking me to sleep together?" Lin Tian smirked and raised an eyebrow at Mei Ruyan.
Mei Ruyan sneered coldly, "Yes, I'm asking you to sleep with me. Not sure if you have the guts to do it with me!"
"I'm really strong, aren't you afraid I might just..."
She didn't finish her sentence but made a gesture instead.
The pen in Mei Ruyan's hand snapped with a crack into two pieces...
Out of nowhere, Lin Tian's legs went weak, and a chill ran down his trousers, "My god!"
"Hehehe... I'm just kidding!"
"Don't take it seriously... seriously, don't!"
"Hmph!" Mei Ruyan snorted coldly, "I'm in a bad mood, if you're free tonight, join me for some drinks!"
Sensing that both Mei Ruyan and Bai Shishi were upset over Xiaogang's betrayal, Lin Tian took a deep breath, "I have time. Where tonight?"
"The bar district!" Mei Ruyan instructed, "Don't miss it at 8 o'clock tonight!"
Lin Tian made an OK sign and left Mei Ruyan's office...
