The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 1330: Chapter 1330: Borrowing a Cigarette to Ease Sorrow

In Zhang Ya’Er’s eyes, Li was just a caregiver.

And Lin Tian didn’t want to reveal Li’s identity, so they didn’t continue discussing him.

Just as Lin Tian was about to ask about the Luban Lock, Zhang Ya’Er spoke first, saying, "I feel like I’m almost recovered. You saw just now, I can even do yoga, so can you take me to see my boss? I’ve been cooped up for days, and I’m bored. I want to work."

"..."

Lin Tian was speechless, thinking, how did the conversation circle back to Li? Do you even know how to have a conversation?

With a couple of complaints in his heart, Lin Tian said, "Rest a couple more days, there’s no rush. Right now, you can only handle some simple tasks, but for the professional stuff, you still need to catch up."

Zhang Ya’Er was also a person with self-awareness. Lin Tian had already told her this, and she was already prepared for it.

"Don’t worry, I won’t miss out on anything I need to learn," Zhang Ya’Er said seriously. Then, her gaze circled back to Lin Tian as she asked, "You guys are here for something, right?"

Wu Yong was a bit curious, "You figured it out?"

Zhang Ya’Er gave Wu Yong a slight smile, "I saw it from your expression. You always have a look of wanting to say something but holding back, and there’s a glint of curiosity in your eyes. When we met at the gambling arena before, the only look in your eyes was lustful."

Wu Yong was genuinely surprised that such a stunning woman had this kind of perception.

"Impressive," Wu Yong sincerely praised, even clapping a few times without reservation.

Zhang Ya’Er responded with a roll of her eyes.

"I also saw something else in your eyes."

"Oh?" Wu Yong was even more curious.

"Before, you used to look at me lustfully, but now you don’t even glance at my chest. Did you assume I’m Lin Tian’s woman?"

"..."

Two seconds later, Wu Yong said again: "Impressive!"

"You so easily labeled me as the sister-in-law, he must have many women, right?"

"Impressive!"

Lin Tian suddenly felt he was being sold out. He immediately kicked Wu Yong and said irritably, "Don’t you have other words to say?"

"No, you know my level of education. Maybe next time I’ll say ’awesome’?"

Lin Tian, enraged, gritted his teeth and said, "Just wait! I’ll enroll you in a high-quality tutoring class so you can recharge, and make you attend more cultural salons, to get some culture instead of acting like a nouveau riche."

"Tian~ don’t, you’re killing me!" Wu Yong started to wail.

Some time ago, Tian Ming had trained him like a dog with daily physical exercises. Though he became stronger, it was an exhausting time deeply etched in Wu Yong’s mind... it was too grueling!

Now, having to catch up on culture; compared to physical training, it definitely won’t be any easier!

"You must go!" Lin Tian said firmly.

Pa!

Wu Yong slapped his own face. What was he just saying too much?

Seeing this, Zhang Ya’Er laughed heartily and even said to Wu Yong, "Impressive!"

"..."

After a bit of joking around, Zhang Ya’Er turned serious and asked, "What’s the matter, say it."

Lin Tian was just about to speak when Zhang Ya’Er interjected, "Don’t say it, let me guess first!"

"..." Getting cut off like that wasn’t a good feeling, but Lin Tian still nodded, signaling for her to go on.

"It must be that the gambling arena situation isn’t over and we need to go to the police station, right?"

Lin Tian shook his head.

"Then the Wang Family is looking for me?"

Lin Tian still shook his head.

"Then I can’t guess."

Zhang Ya’Er truly didn’t know what else Lin Tian could want aside from these matters.

Lin Tian didn’t speak but placed the sketch of the Luban Lock that Davis left in front of Zhang Ya’Er.

Zhang Ya’Er let out a soft exclamation, curiously picking up the drawing. Looking at the odd-looking Luban Lock, she turned to Lin Tian and asked, "What is this? A toy?"

"Have you seen this before?" Lin Tian asked.

"This is the first time; it looks quite strange though. What is it?"

"A Luban Lock."

"So it’s a Luban Lock, I’ve heard of it. But it’s the first time I’ve seen one. It’s said that these things are very hard to open, and it seems true from its appearance."

Zhang Ya’Er couldn’t help her curiosity and kept examining the drawing repeatedly, like a curious baby.

Lin Tian kept observing her expression and eyes. If there was the slightest irregularity, Lin Tian would notice immediately. The scariest thing was that when Lin Tian focused, his senses became exceptionally sharp. At such close range, he could hear Zhang Ya’Er’s heartbeat.

If she knew the story behind the drawing, there would definitely be a flaw.

After observing for a short while, Lin Tian felt she was very normal, probably hearing about the Luban Lock for the first time and also seeing the drawing for the first time.

If Lin Tian misjudged, it could only mean Zhang Ya’Er’s acting skills were too good! Good enough to even control her heartbeat. Lin Tian asked himself, he couldn’t even manage that!

Zhang Ya’Er quickly noticed Lin Tian staring at her. She casually brushed her bangs aside, smiled beautifully, and asked, "Can’t get enough of looking?"

Lin Tian didn’t reply; she could misunderstand, it wasn’t the first or second time this girl flirted with him.

Zhang Ya’Er didn’t pursue the topic further. She put down the drawing of the Luban Lock and asked, "Why are you showing me this?"

"Today, someone named Davis from Silver State came by. He said he’s from Tianya Haijiao City and specifically wanted to see you."

As Lin Tian spoke, he also watched Zhang Ya’Er’s expression.

Sure enough, no longer as calm as before, her expression showed panic, and her already pale complexion turned even paler. Even her pupils contracted slightly.

After the nervousness passed, Zhang Ya’Er’s expression calmed a bit, and she asked quietly, "You know everything?"

Lin Tian shook his head, "Not everything yet, I still want to hear your story. I bet it’s an interesting one."

Zhang Ya’Er’s lips curved into a sad smile. It gave Lin Tian an illusion, reminding him of the last time at the underground gambling arena, where he chatted with Zhang Ya’Er face to face, but that time it was about the fine horse and the worthy one.

"I want a cigarette," Zhang Ya’Er suddenly said.

People addicted to smoking not only love the smell of tobacco but also the way smoking provides freedom, relaxation, relief, and an outlet.

Zhang Ya’Er also had a smoking habit, a pack a day in the past, but she quit while healing from injuries these days. Despite the difficult process, she persevered because she was very disciplined.

But now thinking of the past, it seemed like only a cigarette could release some indescribable pressure.

If one wasn’t enough, then two.
