When Bai Wuji heard this, disbelief flashed across his face.
"You mean Chu XiongHui was deliberately deceiving me from the very beginning?"
Lin XiaoTian just chuckled. He hadn't lied; he had sensed something was off about Chu XiongHui long ago.
Chu XiongHui insisting on becoming the security captain was definitely suspicious. Why would he agree so easily?
The reason was that he intended to use Chu XiongHui as a blade and expose the people behind him.
Now, his plan was a success.
Bai Wuji had appeared before him, along with the Liu family behind him.
"You've all been fooled. I'm usually too lazy to play mind games with you, did you really think your brains were better than mine?"
"I just casually came up with a small idea to tease you, look how angry you all got."
After speaking, he ignored Bai Wuji and walked directly to Young Master Liu, raising his hand and slapping him across the face.
"Slap!"
A crisp sound of a slap echoed.
Young Master Liu fell to the ground, losing over a dozen teeth. Blood flowed from his mouth, and his head felt as if it had been smashed by a thousand-pound hammer, leaving him dizzy and speechless.
Lin XiaoTian grabbed his hair and slapped him several more times across the face.
A brilliant smile spread across his face: "You make promises but don't keep them."
"That's very impolite behavior."
"I always return impoliteness with a slap."
"I'll let you go when you learn to be polite."
Hearing this, Young Master Liu could no longer stand the needle-like pain in his face.
He raised his eyes and saw Lin XiaoTian's cold, mocking gaze.
For a moment, he felt as if countless needles were piercing his back, and a sense of impending death instantly enveloped him.
A thought involuntarily arose in his mind: if this continued, Lin XiaoTian might actually beat him to death.
He didn't want to continue, nor did he want to be beaten to death. His voice trembled as he shouted.
"I'll kneel!"
Lin XiaoTian's face broke into a brilliant smile: "Wouldn't it have been easier if you had done this earlier? You wouldn't have had to take these slaps."
Young Master Liu was so angry his lungs felt like they would explode, but he didn't dare to retort. He could only kneel on the ground, feeling utterly wronged.
However, his eyes were filled with fear.
His voice trembled, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
"What? I didn't hear you?" Lin XiaoTian pretended not to hear, even lightly picking at his ear.
Young Master Liu gritted his teeth, feeling like his lungs were about to burst.
His voice became hysterical.
"I said I'm sorry to you all. I was wrong. I shouldn't have brought this sample to you. Please, I'll kowtow and apologize now."
Lin XiaoTian said with a smile: "That's more like it. If you know you're wrong, you should correct it."
"Not correcting your mistakes isn't good behavior."
"Kowtow obediently, and then you can scram."
Young Master Liu, suppressing his overwhelming anger, kowtowed three times with loud thuds in front of the numerous people present.
Then, he struggled to get up and stumbled towards the door.
He had originally thought he could ruin the reputation of Chu Corporation today and make them plummet.
But he never expected that it was all a trap set by Lin XiaoTian.
And they had fallen right into it. From now on, dealing with Chu Corporation would likely not be so easy.
Moreover, his reputation would be ruined starting today.
Bai Wuji forced a stern expression, glared fiercely at Lin XiaoTian, and turned to leave.
Lin XiaoTian smiled and turned his gaze to everyone present: "It's an honor for everyone to grace our company with your presence today, which is a recognition of our company. I have prepared some small gifts for you all."
As he spoke, he picked up a brush.
There was still a good amount of ink in the inkstone. He used the remaining Xuan paper and quickly began to paint.
These paintings were like mere doodles to him, but the scenes he depicted made countless people present gasp in admiration.
Although they were ink wash paintings, the expressions of each person seemed incredibly lifelike.
And the paintings depicted Young Master Liu kneeling on the ground.
There was also his previous arrogant and overbearing demeanor.
The spirit of the paintings made their eyes shine.
And a thought arose in their minds: in the future, they would provoke anyone but Lin XiaoTian. He was too ruthless.
The paintings would surely be collected by countless people, and then they would be like a comic strip, brought out and talked about by everyone. Young Master Liu would be utterly disgraced.
Furthermore, Lin XiaoTian's words clearly possessed the potential for eternal fame. If this spread to the future, anyone who mentioned Young Master Liu would likely burst into laughter.
This was how he used Young Master Liu's downfall to build his own reputation.
Many people offered their congratulations at this moment.
After finishing the paintings, Lin XiaoTian said with a smile: "These paintings are limited, as the ink has been used up."
"I will be gifting these paintings to our top ten customers today."
"I will have someone hang them up now."
Countless people present had sparkling eyes.
Chu NianXue, however, curved her lips into a smile. All of this was for her.
If it weren't for Lin XiaoTian, she truly didn't know how today would have ended.
The person who had stolen the painting was her own father, which chilled her to the bone.
But fortunately, there was Lin XiaoTian.
This might be heaven's compensation for her.
Lin XiaoTian walked over with a smile, kissed his girlfriend's cheek, and said with a bright smile: "Wife, I've fought for such great benefits for you, a kiss isn't too much to ask, is it?"
Chu NianXue's face turned slightly red, and a look of gratitude appeared on her pretty face: "It's not too much. And I won't say thank you anymore, because we are family."
"Family doesn't need to say thank you."
Hearing this, Lin XiaoTian's smile became even more pronounced: "Wife, call me 'husband' first?"
"Don't push your luck!" Chu NianXue's face flushed.
She couldn't bring herself to say those two words.
Lin XiaoTian's smile didn't diminish at all; it became even more evident: "It's okay, you'll say it eventually. I'll have to trouble you with things here, I still need to go to a pawn shop."
"Wife, I'm leaving now. Call me if anything comes up."
The tender affection in Chu NianXue's eyes seemed to sweeten her heart.
