The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

50: Chapter 49 Toasting 50: Chapter 49 Toasting Following Du Leisi into the private room, the noise inside immediately washed over him.

The modest-sized room was already filled with over a dozen young men and women.

Lin Tian scanned the crowd and then his gaze settled on the girl sitting beside Tang Qianqian.

The girl appeared to be about twenty, with an oval face and large eyes, shoulder-length hair, and though slightly less striking than Tang Qianqian, she could definitely be categorized as a high school beauty.

There was a large cake in front of the girl, with twenty candles on it, and everyone around her was talking and laughing.

It seemed the girl was celebrating her twentieth birthday; she must be Tang Qianqian’s cousin, Lin Yiyi.

Lin Tian looked around and noticed that the private room was near the edge of the opera house’s second floor, one side featuring a floor-to-ceiling window that offered an unobstructed view of the stage on the first floor.

There was a wall-mounted screen on the side, live-streaming the performance on stage.

The room was also equipped with various entertainment facilities for singing and playing, everything was luxurious to say the least.

After a brief observation, Lin Tian walked straight over and sat down next to Tang Qianqian.

Lin Tian’s actions shocked everyone in the room.

Especially the boys whose eyes were passionately fixed on Tang Qianqian, they looked on with ugly expressions full of hostility.

At the same time, many people took note of Lin Tian’s attire and showed disdain and contempt.

“Qianqian, aren’t you going to introduce your friend?”

Tang Qianqian’s cousin just glanced at Lin Tian in surprise before smiling and speaking.

“Cousin, let me introduce him, this is my boyfriend Lin Tian!”

Tang Qianqian, holding onto her cousin’s arm, gave a sly smile and said, “Lin Tian, this is my cousin Lin Yiyi, you share the same surname, huh!”

Holy shit!!

What’s going on?

When did he become her boyfriend!

Lin Tian stared at Tang Qianqian, completely dumbfounded.

The rest of the people present, especially the boys who had seen Tang Qianqian through Lin Yiyi and had developed affection for her, all had their mouths agape, some in disbelief.

Tang Qianqian was known as a high school beauty at Meiling High School, adored by countless male students, pursued by many wealthy young masters.

But no matter how prominent their status or how excellent they were, Tang Qianqian always declined their advances, and many suitors retreated in defeat.

And now, the prestigious school beauty was suddenly the girlfriend of some guy dressed in street market clothes—it completely blew away the crowd.

Damn it, that’s just outrageous!

Holy shit, holy shit, is this the legendary rise to success of an underdog?

Could it be that the high school beauty has an unusual taste, specifically picking a poor guy as a boyfriend?

The boys in the room who had seen Tang Qianqian a few times moaned inwardly.

Now that the school beauty had publicly announced her boyfriend, they could only sullenly swallow their bitterness.

However, one tall boy’s expression was extremely grim, his cold gaze fixated on Lin Tian, flickering with menacing light.

Lin Yiyi, the girl sitting beside Tang Qianqian, was also stunned for a moment before smiling warmly and extending her hand to Lin Tian, “Hello, my name is Lin Yiyi, thank you for accompanying Qianqian to my birthday!”

“Uh…

Sister Yiyi, happy birthday!”

Lin Tian, resigned to accepting the role of boyfriend, shook her hand and smiled as he offered his wishes.

“Thank you!

I trust Qianqian’s judgment!”

Lin Yiyi nodded, showing no hint of disdain for Lin Tian’s street market attire.

Hearing this, Lin Tian twitched at the corner of his mouth and could only silently acknowledge it.

“This friend, are you a classmate of Qianqian’s?

What do your parents do?”

At this moment, the tall boy across from him rose from the sofa, strode over to Lin Tian, and looked down at him with a face full of scorn.

“We have a small business in Phoenix Town, Bin City!”

Lin Tian had already sensed the hostility from this person, but he didn’t mind and simply stated.

“So you’re a country bumpkin!”

The boy sneered, “But that’s okay, I don’t mind.

Here, drink a bottle with me!”

Saying this, the boy took two beer bottles from the table, handing one to Lin Tian.

“Sorry, I don’t drink, and I’m not interested!”

Lin Tian remained unfazed, replying indifferently and taking a sip of water he had poured for himself.

“It looks like you don’t want to give me, Bai Xiaoshuai, any face?”

Bai Xiaoshuai’s handsome face instantly darkened, his cold eyes fixed on Lin Tian, “You do know who runs this Art College, right?

It’s me!

Even across the whole University City, I have a say.

Even dragons bow down here!

Let alone you!”

Bai Xiaoshuai, what are you doing?

Today is my cousin’s birthday, so don’t cause trouble!”

Tang Qianqian stood up and rebuked angrily.

“Qianqian, did you bring him here as a human shield?”

Bai Xiaoshuai looked straight at her and questioned.

“What kind of tone is that?

When you were pursuing my cousin and couldn’t get her, you turned to pursue me.

What’s your mentality?

Fall for everyone you see?”

With a cold smile, Tang Qianqian sat back down and directly took Lin Tian’s arm, saying, “Now I have a boyfriend, so please stop bothering me from now on!

Also, tonight is my cousin’s birthday, and we’re celebrating during Jiang Tiantian’s sister’s concert, so don’t spoil the mood!”

So, he was being used as a human shield!

Lin Tian frowned.

“Kid, you’d better be careful!”

Bai Xiaoshuai warned before returning to his seat with a sullen face.

This kid is going to be in trouble!

The youths looking at Lin Tian with hostility and disdain snickered among themselves.

Bai Xiaoshuai’s father is the dean of Bin City Art College, a person with some status in his own right.

And Bai Xiaoshuai himself has quite a say in both the college and the University City area.

Almost all of those who had offended him before had been taken care of by the guys he called from the Sports College, and ever since, everyone was cautious around him.

One could imagine that this country bumpkin here would be in big trouble one of these days!

“Don’t worry about him, he’s just arrogant because his father is the dean!

With me here, he wouldn’t dare to do anything!”

Tang Qianqian looked at Lin Tian with concern before finally comforting him.

Although she knew Lin Tian could fight, facing the rich and powerful, even the best fighter is just an egg striking a rock.

Lin Tian just smiled lightly, unconcerned, and continued to sit there as usual.

Everyone had arrived, and now it was time for Lin Yiyi to blow out the candles and cut the cake.

Amidst a round of well-wishing and cheering, the private room grew lively.

Platters of fruit, draft beer, and beverages were served one after another.

Bai Xiaoshuai was the financial backer today, lavishly taking care of Lin Yiyi’s birthday expenses.

It wasn’t clear whether he was still pursuing Lin Yiyi or just trying to impress Tang Qianqian.

And as if to provoke, Bai Xiaoshuai sneered at Lin Tian, then called over the manager of the second-floor private rooms in the opera house, starting to order various expensive foreign liquor, red wine, white wine – Lafite, Rémy Martin, Hennessy – with a wave of his hand, everything ordered without concern for the cost, this place was his, Mr.

Bai’s, domain.

Various fine wines were brought up, and everyone took turns toasting Lin Yiyi in celebration.

“Country bumpkin, have you ever seen these wines?

It’s rare for you to taste them, so remember to drink up!

They’re all free, courtesy of this young master!”

Bai Xiaoshuai looked at Lin Tian with a sneer, disdainfully saying.

The other boys and girls looking to curry favor with Bai Xiaoshuai all laughed out loud.

“Mr.

Bai, why bother with such an unsophisticated country bumpkin?

Let’s enjoy our drinks!”

At this moment, Xiao Mei stood up with her cousin sitting next to her, eagerly toasting Bai Xiaoshuai.

Lin Yiyi and Tang Qianqian said nothing, their eyebrows slightly furrowed, but not wanting to dampen the spirits, they joined in the toasting.

But Lin Tian didn’t care and didn’t join in, glancing indifferently at Du Leisi, who sat nearby with an uncomfortable expression, just like Lin Tian who felt out of place, he secretly shook his head.

“The time is getting ready, Jiang Tiantian is preparing to go on stage!”

After everyone had celebrated with Lin Yiyi, someone suddenly shouted, and everyone looked up at the opera house’s ground floor, which was already full of people, and a woman in a long dress walked onto the stage and sat down at the piano that had been set up earlier.

It really was the same Jiang Tiantian from last night!

Lin Tian couldn’t help but look down, watching the familiar figure on the stage with a trace of surprise on his face.

As the concert began, Jiang Tiantian sang her signature song “Forget River,” a song soaked with a strong sense of antiquity and the sorrowful beauty of love without hope, earning the audience’s applause and praise in the opera house.

Forget River, huh?

A thousand years ago, on my journey to explore the worlds beyond, I even went to the Netherworld and reached the Forget River, discussing the path of cultivation with Meng Xiaoshuang and inquiring about news of the outer realms, to no avail.

The people of this world think of Meng Po as an old crone with a face full of wrinkles, not knowing that Meng Xiaoshuang, guarding the bridge over the Forget River, changed her appearance and refused to show her true face.

Her real appearance, however, was just that of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

Thinking of the past, Lin Tian’s face revealed a trace of wistfulness, but when he recalled Meng Xiaoshuang’s zany antics, he couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Just as everyone was quietly listening to Jiang Tiantian’s performance downstairs, the door to the private room was suddenly opened.

Everyone looked up to see a woman around thirty years old with a gold necklace wearing a bright evening dress, her smile stunning and her manners elegant, walking in with a man.

Seeing the woman who entered, many people showed looks of surprise and exchanged glances, not recognizing her.

But Bai Xiaoshuai, sitting in the center of the sofa, recognized the woman who walked in and said with a smile, “Sister Ling, what brings you here?

Is something wrong?

It’s my classmate’s birthday right now!”

“Mr.

Bai, it’s like this.

A distinguished guest has arrived in the Black Card private room next door, and he would like to invite a few of the ladies here to come over and have a drink with him.

What do you think?”

The woman with the gold necklace approached Bai Xiaoshuai with some difficulty and said.

Upon hearing this, the faces of Bai Xiaoshuai and others turned dark.
