"This matter concerns my life and safety. I fear I won't be able to handle it and it could directly lead to my demise. Crucially, without me, Mr. Lin's cooperation with our Xu family might encounter some flaws. After all, I'm an intelligent person who knows what to do and what not to do. There's no one more suitable than me to be your dog."
As the second young master of the Xu family said this, he bowed deeply, "Moreover, you are my master. It's not shameful at all to seek your help when I'm in danger."
"Please save me, Mr. Lin!"
Lin Xiaotian's eyebrows twitched slightly. "Your father is going to deal with you?"
The second young master of the Xu family quickly shook his head, a hint of fear appearing on his face. "It's not my father, but I feel those people are definitely more terrifying than my father. Their strength is simply too great."
"Last night, I was planning to go back. Not long after leaving your place, I was intercepted. They gave me only one day to consider joining them and then finding a way to sabotage the cooperation between our two families."
"They even want our Xu family to stand against you. I don't even know their identities, but their strength easily dealt with all my bodyguards."
"The bodyguards I brought were all my most trusted confidantes, and now only one is still alive, and he's in the hospital."
"If I can't give them a clear answer tonight, I might die."
A smile appeared on Lin Xiaotian's face. "They dare to bully my people? They're getting too bold. I'd like to see who's trying to find you. Please contact them directly. I have nothing much to do during the day, so let's go meet them."
The second young master of the Xu family was slightly stunned. His gaze held a hint of anxiety, but more so, doubt regarding Lin Xiaotian's strength.
He knew Lin Xiaotian was strong, but only against ordinary people. He felt Lin Xiaotian might not be a match for those mysterious masters. He also felt that behind Lin Xiaotian, there must be even stronger individuals.
"Mr. Lin, I feel that just the two of us might be in trouble. There were four or five of them, and each one was extremely powerful."
"Even standing near them, I could feel the oppressive force emanating from them."
There was one more thing he didn't say: in front of those people, he felt he could be killed at any moment. Their gazes were like knives, extremely sharp, and their auras were like unsheathed blades.
Lin Xiaotian, on the other hand, felt much more ordinary.
Therefore, he felt Lin Xiaotian might not be a match for those people, and perhaps after Lin Xiaotian went, he might also fall into their hands.
It was very likely a case of a dog going for a meat bun and never returning.
How could Lin Xiaotian not see what this fellow was thinking? The smile in his eyes became even more pronounced. When he had subdued the second young master of the Xu family, he hadn't displayed any strength, just a single pill.
"Don't worry, I have a backup plan. No matter how strong they are, as long as they show themselves, I guarantee they will never return."
"You and I are both intelligent people, and we understand that a wise man doesn't stand under a dangerous wall."
Saying this, he patted the second young master of the Xu family on the shoulder.
The second young master of the Xu family felt relieved. He knew Lin Xiaotian was smart, and he was afraid Lin Xiaotian would be impulsive. It seemed he was like himself, not an extremely arrogant person. As long as one was cautious, they could live a long life.
And most importantly, if Lin Xiaotian got into trouble, he would also be doomed without the antidote.
"Shall I call them now? They said if I made up my mind, I should contact them immediately, and they would give me a very important mission."
"Mainly, if I complete this mission, they might even let me become the head of the Xu family. I don't believe a single word they say, but their strength is indeed incredibly powerful."
Even now, the second young master of the Xu family had a deep impression of those people. He even suspected that if he hadn't been threatened by Lin Xiaotian's medicine, he would have unhesitatingly agreed to their demands if he had faced them alone.
Lin Xiaotian nodded. "Call them now. Directly arrange a place. Let's go to the Blue Sky Hotel. The soundproofing there is good, and the Blue Sky Hotel is controlled by a branch of your Xu family. It will be easier to handle if anything happens."
The second young master of the Xu family's mouth twitched slightly, but he still followed Lin Xiaotian's instructions and immediately made the call.
The call was answered quickly, and a deep voice came from the other end. "It seems the second young master has made up his mind. Then just tell me the location. I'll come to find you now. You will do something for us, and if this matter is handled well, you will have many benefits in the future."
"Okay, come directly to the Blue Sky Hotel. This is one of our family's properties. Once you arrive, we can talk slowly."
After speaking, the second young master of the Xu family hung up the phone and looked at Lin Xiaotian.
"Mr. Lin, shall we go now?"
"No rush. Let them wait there first. Also, call your hotel staff and tell them to pay attention. When the people arrive, immediately invite them to a private room upstairs. Tell them you are still out handling some other matters."
"See if the number of people who arrive matches the ones from that night. If one or two are missing, they might try to attack you later."
"What we need to do is to catch them all in one net."
The second young master of the Xu family strongly agreed with Lin Xiaotian's words. In fact, he thought the same thing. If one or two escaped, it might not be a threat to Lin Xiaotian, but it would be a fatal threat to him.
Especially when he thought about what happened to his bodyguards, they were completely defenseless against those people.
The strength of those people was terrifying to the extreme.
Lin Xiaotian, however, seemed to take it lightly, playing a small game on his phone. After about ten minutes, he saw the second young master of the Xu family's phone ring. He saw the caller ID was from the hotel manager.
As soon as he answered, the hotel manager's voice came through.
"Second young master, the people you invited have arrived. I've arranged them in the top-floor private room. There are four of them, and their appearances are similar to your description."
"Okay, I understand. Serve them a lavish meal and the best wine. Tell them I'll be there in about ten minutes."
Afterward, he called Lin Xiaotian and turned to him. "It's confirmed now. Those people are all in the hotel's private room. Mr. Lin, shall we go now?"
