Chapter 221 - You Still Have Us
Chapter 221: You Still Have Us
“Ha, you actually dare to talk back to me now?”
This girl named Shangguan Muran raised her hand and was about to hit her. Li Na shrank her neck and her body trembled slightly, but she didn’t resist. Seeing that Shangguan Muran was about to hit her. At this time, a hand grabbed Shangguan Muran’s wrist.
Lin Tian walked out and looked coldly at Shangguan Muran. He didn’t know what had happened between Li Na and Shangguan Muran, but it was too much for her to hit Li Na in front of everyone.
No matter what, Li Na was his former teammate. They had been through many things together, so he couldn’t watch an outsider bully his friend.
“Don’t go too far! This is Hex City University, not your Imperial City University!” Lin Tian said coldly
Then, he shook off Shangguan Muran’s hand. Shangguan Muran’s face instantly darkened, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes.
“Don’t think you’re great just because you got the top scorer!”
Shangguan Muran said coldly. She looked at Lin Tian coldly. Both of them came from the two of the five great universities. To be honest, they were pretty much at the position in the university. After the college entrance examination, the outstanding results during high school didn’t mean anything now.
This was also the reason why Shangguan Muran was so arrogant.
Following that, a few students from Imperial City University stood out from behind Shangguan Muran. Although Lin Tian said that he was here to help Li Na, he had stepped into the circle of students from Imperial City University after all. Even if the students from Imperial City University didn’t like Shangguan Muran’s behavior, they couldn’t let an outsider bully their own people.
“Li Na, don’t forget the current situation in your family.”
Shangguan Muran crossed her arms. Obviously, with the support of the students of Imperial City University, she had more confidence. Moreover, she wasn’t afraid of Lin Tian in the first place. At this moment, she wasn’t only targeting Lin Tian, but also Li Na.
“Lin Tian, why don’t you go back first? I can handle this!”
After hearing Shangguan Muran’s words, Li Na tugged at the corner of Lin Tian’s shirt and said in a low voice. Her body was still trembling. It was obvious that she was afraid. After hearing Shangguan Muran’s words, Lin Tian frowned.
He did not expect that their family were involved. No wonder the bright Li Na was bullied by Shangguan Muran. She had no choice
Shangguan Muran probably had a strong family background.
At this time, Lin Tian realized that even if he could really use his strength to fight against them, it would be useless. Just like Zhou Hao and Zhou Zhengyang back then, he could win against them countless times, he could win against them in terms of strength.
But would it be useful?
It would be useless.
These students had strong family grounds. Even if he defeated them, their families would not let him go. He could only stand like there and do nothing.
“In the end, I’m still not strong enough!”
Lin Tian felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart. He looked at his former teammate’s servile attitude, and it hurt him. At this moment, he seemed to understand a lot, but also seemed to be confused.
He was like a speck of duckweed in the water, floating with the wind, letting the wind hit his body and drift along the current.
“It seems that the Shangguan family has been living quite well recently?”
Just as Lin Tian and Shangguan Muran were in a stalemate, a cold voice broke the silence. The students of the five universities turned to look at the cold voice, a girl with a frosty face walked out.
When she appeared, it was as if the surrounding temperature had dropped by a degree.
Wang Xue stood beside Lin Tian and looked coldly at Shangguan Muran. When Shangguan Muran saw the newcomer, she was initially disdainful, but gradually, she became shocked.
“You, why are you here?”
Shangguan Muran was scared as if she had seen a monster. Her pupils constricted and she took half a step back, looking at Wang Xue in disbelief. When Bi Linyu saw Shangguan Muran’s expression, she looked at Wang Xue with interest.
“Could she be from that place?”
Bi Linyu smiled and thought to herself, as if she had thought of something interesting.
The Shangguan family was quite large in the Imperial City and could be considered a first-class family. Shangguan Muran was not a member of the main Shangguan family, but a member of a branch family that had been assigned to another base by the main family, but she still had a very high social status.
This was also why even if Shangguan Muran did this, she would still be able to get hundreds of people to support her. There were so many supporters, not only because of the fact that the Imperial City University was united against outsiders, but also because of her status, and she did not lack followers.
“Stop playing the family game. You and I are just students!”
Wang Xue looked at Shangguan Muran coldly and said. Shangguan Muran’s expression changed slightly. She glanced at Li Na, and hatred flashed in her eyes. However, she quickly recovered. Finally, she held back the anger in her heart and nodded.
“Since you have said so, why don’t I have a match with Lin Tian and the others? After all, Li Na is also his teammate!”
Shangguan Muran saw that she couldn’t teach Li Na a lesson, so she suggested to use her strength to decide the winner. By then, she would be able to teach Li Na a proper lesson. As for Lin Tian, there was no need to mention him.
Moreover, she was certain that Lin Tian wouldn’t refuse. After all, she didn’t give face to Lin Tian and Li Na just now, and Lin Tian couldn’t avenge Li Na, so now she was giving the two of them a chance.
At this moment, Wang Xue looked at Lin Tian, as if she wanted to hand over the decision to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian frowned slightly. He really wanted to accept this battle, but when he thought of Li Na’s situation, he forcefully suppressed this thought. After thinking for a moment, he finally looked at Li Na.
At this moment, Li Na’s body trembled slightly. She seemed to have thought of something terrifying. Lin Tian patted her shoulder, and her emotions calmed down.
“It’s okay, you still have us!”
Lin Tian said with a smile. He knew what Li Na was afraid of. After all, she was not like him who was alone. Since high school, he had been working and studying, going to places like the slaughterhouse to earn his living expenses. Li Na still had her family behind her, she still had to care about her family’s feelings.
But he still wanted to tell Li Na that she was never alone.
