I'm terminally ill, and all they give me is a matchmaking system?
Chapter 157 A hard slap in the face
"Only twice?"
Lin Tian wore an incredulous expression, his tone somewhat flippant, as if he wanted to negotiate terms with him.
The underlings around him were surprised by Lin Tian's statement.
They stared at each other, utterly astonished.
who is this?
How dare they speak to their Tiger Brother like that?
Their astonishment was almost palpable as they stared at each other, nearly uttering a curse.
The tiger, however, remained unperturbed, smiling faintly: "How much do you want? Twice isn't enough?"
"The money I have is enough for my basic daily expenses to last two lifetimes, so unless there are very attractive conditions, I am not willing to step out of my current comfort zone."
Lin Tian's meaning was also quite clear.
The gist of it is: if you're not willing to give me a good position, then I won't agree to it.
The tiger, of course, understood.
His henchmen, who were standing nearby, heard everything clearly. They straightened up excitedly and pointed at Lin Tian angrily, saying, "Are you threatening us? I'm warning you, if you're sent by our rivals, don't blame us for being ruthless when we find out your identity. But if you're not looking for trouble, we're willing to be polite to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Tian chuckled.
"Brother Tiger, all of your underlings are exactly the same. How much do they distrust the people around you and wonder about their intentions? I'm just explaining my original situation to you. Whether or not we cooperate is, of course, a decision that can only be made if both sides are willing, right?"
Lin Tian's eyes held a smile.
This one sentence immediately stirred up the tiger's disgust and resentment towards his underlings.
Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack!
Several slaps landed, and the tiger's cold gaze swept over them as he hissed, "Are you looking for death? Or do you want to quit and leave? I've been good to you, you don't need to keep causing me trouble like this."
Sensing the tiger's anger, the henchmen all lowered their heads, not daring to utter a single boastful word.
Seeing this, Tiger invited Lin Tian, saying, "Then give me a multiple of the money you want to make, and I, Tiger, will really admire your abilities! So as long as it's not excessive, I can agree."
"Then let me see Tiger's strength first!"
Lin Tian gave a perfunctory reply.
Just as Tiger was about to speak again, he abruptly interrupted, "Oh dear! Brother Tiger, now that you mention it, I forgot. Let's hurry back to the mountaintop; I have something more important to do!"
"what?"
Tiger frowned and, urged by Lin Tian, signaled to his henchman beside him to speed up the injured movements.
In the blink of an eye, they were back on the mountaintop.
Overjoyed, Zhou Xun ran to Lin Tian's side and whispered, "I'm so glad you're alright."
"I told you I'm fine. It was those guys who didn't bully you, right?"
Lin Tian acted like a husband, comforting his frightened wife, and then gestured to the people who were dodging nearby.
“Before the competition, you all placed bets, and now that I've won, all your money, plus my initial investment, is yours to me.”
As Lin Tian spoke, he saw a hint of a smile in their eyes, but then pretended to remember and added something else.
"And the multiplier is calculated per person. Don't think I don't know your rules. Give me what's mine as soon as possible. Otherwise, let Tiger figure something out! After all, this bet was arranged by you guys in private."
Lin Tian looked down at them with arrogance.
A look of panic immediately flashed across their faces.
They nervously swallowed, and the situation quickly brought the tiger over.
The tiger frowned and asked in a low voice.
They all raised their hands, saying that it was Zhou Jianguo who wanted to do it.
Zhou Jianguo kept his head down and remained silent.
The tiger, enraged, stepped forward and began punching him repeatedly.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Xun, who was standing nearby, would definitely be unmoved.
but……
So what if I'm moved?
The one who abandoned her and her family was her father, Zhou Jianguo.
He was a gambler from the beginning.
Now, they're still the same, and they're completely incorrigible.
Judging from this situation, he must have done this many times before. If Lin Tian hadn't come up to race this time, his true colors probably wouldn't have been exposed.
The tiger gritted its teeth: "You're really something! When you first came to work for me, I knew about your past. I thought you would change, but instead of changing, you've gone too far. Now, you're starting to make money off my brothers, huh?"
Zhou Jianguo immediately put on a fawning smile, begging the tiger for forgiveness.
"Brother Tiger... I really won't do it again! To be honest, you've won almost every time I've done this before, I never thought it would happen this time..."
Zhou Jianguo should have just kept quiet.
His explanation only fueled the tiger's anger.
The tiger frowned, his anger barely contained, and roared, "You were clearly in the wrong, and now you dare to turn the tables! If you still don't understand by now, you'll have to pay this compensation all by yourself. I'm not helping you anymore, you..."
The tiger had barely finished speaking when...
Zhou Jianguo knelt down with a thud.
Tears streaming down his face, he cried, "Brother Tiger, I really won't do it again! I promise, if I do it again, you can kick me out of here. I promise, I swear!"
Tiger scoffed coldly, then turned to look at Lin Tian.
"Lin Tian, we'll be working together soon, so I'll take responsibility for what that old fox owes you! Now, what do you want?"
Lin Tian chuckled, "Anything is fine?"
"Yes."
“I want that race car in your garage that rivals the best! And I want their principal, plus two-tenths of the multiple payout they were supposed to give me.”
Lin Tian's request sounds exaggerated.
In reality, this is already the bare minimum requirement.
None of the energetic young men around him wanted to get up, but Tiger knew that if he had already spoken and then tried to bargain, it would only be a slap in the face for him, and he would lose all face.
Clenching his teeth, Tiger smiled and nodded: "No problem, I'll have them give you what you want right now."
After calling Lao Ye over, Tiger explained his arrangements.
Take a multiple of everyone's salary for the next three months, combine them, and give them to Lin Tian.
Even though they complained and blamed everything, they couldn't change the tiger's mind, and everyone waited for Lin Tian with resentment.
Lin Tian sneered unhappily, "There's no point in looking at me like that! I'm only asking for two-tenths of the compensation to let you know that some things can't be judged by appearances. Asking for two-tenths is also giving Tiger Brother face. If you're not willing, then I'll take back my original intention..."
