Top-Tier Superpower Student

"Shoot and kill him," Zhou Yun shouted, having lost all reason.

Lin Tian had knocked down over a dozen police officers, and the remaining officers were enraged, each drawing their weapons.

Zhou Yun's deputy, named Jiang Yun, was more composed in such situations. He knew that shooting Lin Tian now would be bad for everyone involved.

"Hold on, hold on," Jiang Yun hurriedly shouted, blocking the other officers then he tried to persuade Zhou Yun, "Chief Zhou, Lin Tian is guilty, but not deserving of death. Shooting him would be disadvantageous to you."

Zhou Yun had now completely lost his sanity, like a rabid dog, biting anyone who stood in his way!

"Damn it, Jiang Yun, are you the third in command or am I? I know you've been coveting my position for a long time, but as long as I'm here, I'm your superior and you have to listen to me. Didn't you see Lin Tian assaulting the police? Didn't you see him killing? He deserves to die. Relay my order, shoot him!"

Jiang Yun wanted to continue arguing with Zhou Yun, but the officers had already raised their guns and he couldn't stop them.

Watching these officers lift their guns, Lin Tian grew angry too. He wasn't a murderous Demon King. These officers were just following orders, and Lin Tian wouldn't unduly trouble them. But if they really opened fire, Lin Tian would definitely obliterate Zhou Yun, the chief instigator.

"Stop!"

Just at this critical moment, a furious roar suddenly erupted.

Zhou Yun was seething with anger. Who the hell dared to stop him at this time?

He turned around in fury, planning to lash out, but his anger deflated immediately when he saw who it was.

The person was also dressed in a police uniform; it was Fan Chenglong, the newly transferred chief of the Wu'an City police department.

Zhou Yun's direct superior!

Fan Chenglong glared with his fierce eyes, showing an expression that screamed you've made a big mistake.

Giving the order to shoot to kill was no small matter. Zhou Yun quickly explained, "Chief, Lin Tian killed in front of us and even assaulted the police. Look, over a dozen of my brothers are injured."

Fan Chenglong had no time to bother with him, breezing past him and managing a faint smile. He reached out his hand, making a friendly gesture toward Lin Tian.

"Mr. Lin, I'm terribly sorry. My subordinates are ignorant and almost caused a misunderstanding that could have injured you!"

Lin Tian also reached out his hand, disdainfully saying, "You're giving them too much credit. They couldn't hurt me even if they tried."

Zhou Yun, looking on perplexedly, couldn't understand. Lin Tian was a criminal, guilty of assaulting police and murder. He couldn't fathom why Fan Chenglong was speaking amicably with Lin Tian!

He must have misunderstood, he thought to himself.

He hurried over to Fan Chenglong's side, reemphasizing, "Chief, it seems you've misunderstood. Lin Tian has murdered and assaulted the police. We should arrest him."

After Zhou Yun finished speaking, Fan Chenglong's face turned green with irritation. Zhou Yun was unaware of Lin Tian's identity, but Fan Chenglong knew. How could he, a minor chief, afford to offend someone of Lin Tian's status?

Fan Chenglong slapped Zhou Yun across the face with the back of his hand, forcefully enough to send him falling to the ground.

Taken aback, Zhou Yun took the slap full on and found himself seated on the ground.

He clutched his face, staring at Fan Chenglong with an innocent expression, as if to say: Chief, why did you hit me!

Fan Chenglong pointed at Lin Tian and shouted at Zhou Yun, "Do you have any idea who he is? Lin Tian, the founder of Tianyi Pharma, Lin Tian, Mr. Lin!"

Lin Tian!

Mr. Lin!

In Wu'an City, who didn't know Lin Tian's name? However, although everyone knew of him, no one had actually seen him.

Who would have thought that the person behind Tianyi Pharma with a net worth of hundreds of billions, was actually a young man not even twenty years old!

Zhou Yun looked up at Lin Tian, his pupils dilating rapidly, as if he'd seen a ghost, and he was filled with a chilling dread.

"Mr. Lin, I was wrong. I should not have wronged you. You saved hostages and deserve recognition; we should hold you as a model and strive to match you...!" Zhou Yun cried out, quickly changing his tune and flattering Lin Tian.

The other officers also lowered their guns, looking at Lin Tian with amazement as if they had discovered a new world, almost as though they wanted to strip him bare with their gazes.

Fan Chenglong said cheerily, "Mr. Lin, this was all a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding. Please don't take it to heart."

Lin Tian didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore, especially because he couldn't stand the stares from the officers nearby.

Somehow, Lin Tian had the sensation of being an internet celebrity.

He gave a slight smile, said nothing to Fan Chenglong, but instead approached Jiang Yun, giving his shoulder a pat, saying, "You did well. Calm and composed in the face of trouble, much better than Zhou Yun over there."

After saying this, Lin Tian walked away without looking back, hand in hand with Bu Mengting.

Fan Chenglong, a seasoned politician, knew exactly what Lin Tian meant.

He purposefully called out loudly, as if to make sure Lin Tian would hear.

"Zhou Yun, you handle things too rashly. Go down to the grassroots level. Jiang Yun, you performed commendably in this rescue operation. You will take Zhou Yun's place."

Some cried, some laughed, Zhou Yun was bewildered. Just as he had finally clawed his way up to the third highest position, how could he be dismissed so abruptly!

Jiang Yun was surprised with joy. Fan Chenglong said he performed excellently in this operation, but he didn't feel it himself. Wasn't he just helping Lin Tian speak a few words?

At that thought, he was suddenly startled, his pupils dilated as he stared at Lin Tian's retreating figure, his expression full of gratitude.

...

Bu Mengting and Lin Tian arrived at the jewelry store. The staff member who was beaten to death was called Xiaofang, a country girl Bu Mengting had newly recruited. She was down-to-earth and hardworking, a good girl.

Bu Mengting stared at Xiaofang, tears of sorrow rolling down her cheeks while others did the same, shedding tears one after another.

Lin Tian called the police, who took away Xiaofang's body. The jewelry store had seventeen security guards in total, five were injured, two were killed, and of the remaining eleven, seven crouched on the ground and became hostages, leaving four who ran away. At the time when Bu Mengting needed them most, they turned into deserters.

For the deceased, Lin Tian issued double the compensation, and for the injured, Lin Tian sent them to the best hospital for treatment. As for the four security guards who ran away, they must be fired, and moreover, Lin Tian would not let them have another chance to find work in Wu'an City.

Looking at the shattered jewelry store, the deceased colleague, Bu Mengting's crying grew more and more heartbroken until she simply collapsed.

She leaned against Lin Tian's chest, weeping, "Husband, Mengyi gave me this jewelry store. I wanted to prove myself. I really tried my best to manage it well. I truly worked hard, I even made some small achievements, but now, it's all over. Husband, I'm scared. It's all my fault... I'm useless...!"

The jewelry store was robbed—how could this be blamed on Bu Mengting? She too was a victim!

However, Lin Tian couldn't explain too much to her right now. She was in the midst of collapsing, and even if Lin Tian did explain, she wouldn't be able to listen.

Lin Tian held her in his arms, comforting her, "It's okay now, little treasure. Everything will get better. They didn't rob the jewels, we can redecorate the rooms, we can recruit more people. Leave everything to me, your husband, I will take care of it all."

Right at this moment, Wang Ying heard the news and hurried to the scene. Seeing the devastated jewelry store, he apologized with deep remorse, "Big brother, I'm sorry, I failed to protect the jewelry store."

Lin Tian said, "It's okay, it's not your fault. Mengting's mood is a bit low now. I will leave the rest of the things here to you."

"Okay!"

Afterwards, Lin Tian took Bu Mengting and went home.

Bu Mengting initially cried in Lin Tian's arms until her eyes were red. Lin Tian consoled her, teased her, tried everything, but Bu Mengting just kept crying, her mood not improving at all.

Lin Tian was at a loss and could only hold her, acting as her wall, sheltering her from the wind and the rain.

In the evening, Lin Tian's stomach growled with hunger, and Bu Mengting too was hungry, but she seemed to have no appetite whatsoever.

Lin Tian placed Bu Mengting on the couch, looking at her reddened eyes, and almost heartbroken.

In her state, she certainly couldn't eat anything greasy, so Lin Tian simply decided to make some plain rice porridge for Bu Mengting.

At first, Bu Mengting refused to eat no matter how much Lin Tian persuaded her. Later, Lin Tian had no choice but to mix deception with threats, and managed to feed her nearly half a bowl of porridge.

After eating, Lin Tian took Bu Mengting to bed. Bu Mengting clutched Lin Tian's hand tightly, still caught in fear.

With his hand stroking Bu Mengting's face, Lin Tian gently said, "Little wife, go to sleep with peace of mind. I will always accompany you, I won't leave you."

Bu Mengting nodded reassuredly and fell asleep.

Only after she fell asleep did Lin Tian go to bed. He originally wanted to make love to his little wife, but who would have thought he would encounter such an incident. How unpredictable life is, and how difficult to foresee!

Early the next day, Lin Tian got up early and went downstairs to buy groceries. Lin Tian intended to personally cook and prepare a few dishes for Bu Mengting.

He couldn't cook and had never done it before. But thankfully, there was Baidu. Lin Tian made two dishes and one soup: stir-fried chives and eggs, cumin-sliced meat, and seaweed egg drop soup!

A balanced combination of meat and vegetables, nutritious and wholesome.

After cooking, Bu Mengting still hadn't woken up. Lin Tian sat by her bed, holding her hand, quietly waiting for her to wake.

A little while later, Bu Mengting woke up, initially a bit panicky, but seeing Lin Tian, everything was fine.

Lin Tian leaned in to kiss Bu Mengting and said, "Little wife, the sun is high in the sky. Get up and eat. After we eat, let's go out and have fun!"

His aim was to lift Bu Mengting's spirits, to not dwell on the jewelry store incident, hoping that the outing would help Bu Mengting forget her worries.

"I don't want to eat, I'm not hungry, I have no appetite," Bu Mengting dashed Lin Tian's hopes flatly.

However, Lin Tian was not surprised; this was within his expectations.

He switched to coaxing mode—indeed, men can also act coy.

"Little wife, please eat a little, okay? I made it myself for you. This is my first time cooking, I followed all of Baidu's instructions. I don't know if it tastes good, why don't you try it? This is my first time cooking, the very first time!"

Bu Mengting smiled, looking at Lin Tian as if he were a porcelain doll—it was her first time seeing Lin Tian act so coy and cute!

It was love, full of love!

Bu Mengting couldn't resist, and even if she had no appetite, she would try Lin Tian's affectionate breakfast for the sake of his love.

"Let's go, little wife, let's go have breakfast!"
