The noise around was not loud. Not only Lin Tao could hear it, but everyone at the table could hear it as well.

Li Ang snorted coldly and handed the cup to Lin Tao. He was about to spill the wine on Lin Tao's face with a shake of his hand. He said with a provocative look: "Lin Tao, since you understand, then take it."

After a pause, he chuckled again: "Don't worry, although this wine is not cheap, you don't have to pay for it."

Goldu wine is very expensive, so it has always been popular only among the rich.

"I'll buy the wine." The bald middle-aged man said hurriedly. In fact, the moment he saw Lin Tao and Li Ang, he was thinking more about how to get the two of them not to drink this bottle of Goldu. Unfortunately, he racked his brains but couldn't think of a solution. Now he had no choice but to take charge.

"Old Cheng, how could I let you spend money when I come here?" Li Ang refused on the spot.

Having said this, the bald middle-aged man had no choice but to wipe the sweat from his forehead, close his mouth and remain silent.

Lin Tao frowned slightly and stood up.

"Lin Tao." Seeing Lin Tao reaching out to take the cup, Bai Fan, who was sitting next to him, quickly pulled Lin Tao's sleeve. His face was pale and he shook his head repeatedly.

With the development of society, the content of the duel of Goldu Wine has been upgraded to the extremely popular Skynet mecha battle. Li Ang is ranked fifth in Skynet, so how can Lin Tao be his opponent?

Du Ruizhi was also secretly worried, but Du Ruiming just smiled and said nothing, because he knew where Lin Tao got the money.

Seeing that Bai Fan actually tried to stop them, Li Ang's face darkened: "Bai Fan, you are in a lot of trouble now, so don't get involved in the matter between me and Lin Tao, otherwise it will not be good for you."

Bai Fan was stunned when he heard this, and it was obvious that he didn't know what was going on.

Lin Tao remained calm, reached out to take the wine glass in front of him, held it in front of him and took a quick look at it.

Compared to ordinary red wine, Goldu wine has a rich amber color and is free of any impurities. However, those who know the truth understand that this is actually just an ordinary red wine blended with spices and has a slightly spicy smell.

If it weren't for the rumors about Goldu, the value of this wine would definitely drop by more than a hundred times if it were bottled in a new bottle.

"Very good. If you accept my challenge, maybe I can reveal some news to you." Li Ang didn't seem to be an unreasonable person. When he saw Lin Tao took the wine glass, his eyes flew towards Bai Fan.

Lin Tao frowned again. Could it be that Bai Fan had other troubles besides Fengle Hou? Being stared at by everyone, Bai Fan was at a loss, and his mind was even more confused: "Could it be Ling Heizi's business? But it was Lin Tao who made the move, what does it have to do with me?"

He thought too much, but he didn't realize who he had offended.

As for Fengle Hou, they were not from the same class, so Bai Fan couldn't think of Fengle Hou no matter how hard he tried.

Lin Tao blinked his eyes. In the information of later generations, Bai Fan used the pseudonym Bai Wufan, and gave a chip to the person who developed the Wufan series. Even though the chip industry had not yet appeared in this era, Lin Tao attached great importance to him.

Because Lin Tao wants to expand his power, he needs a group of mecha personnel, and the use of chips can quickly increase the strength of their mechas.

Thinking of this, Lin Tao asked softly, "Is the content of the duel a battle between Skynet mechas?"

"That's right." Li Ang nodded proudly.

Lin Tao narrowed his eyes and stopped talking. He raised the wine glass and drank the wine in one gulp. The wine was spicy but also went down his throat easily. After drinking it, he turned the glass upside down to indicate that not a drop was left.

Li Ang was stunned, but soon he laughed out loud: "Okay!"

After saying that, he also drank it all in one gulp.

"Tell me, what trouble did Bai Fan encounter?" Lin Tao asked directly without beating around the bush.

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, because they had already understood that Lin Tao accepted the duel with Li Ang not for Liu Zhengqi as everyone said, but for Bai Fan.

Bai Fan's whole body began to tremble. He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word for a long time.

"Hmm?" Li Ang was startled, then his face darkened. He snorted coldly and lowered his voice: "Marquis Fengle."

"Lin Tao, I have another patrol today. The time will be tomorrow. I will send you the location."

After saying that, Li Ang turned around and left without caring whether Lin Tao agreed or not.

Feng Le Hou? Lin Tao was a little dumbfounded. He thought Bai Fan had gotten into some trouble again, but after all the twists and turns, he found out that it was just Feng Le Hou. This guy had been buried underground by Lin Tao himself a long time ago. There was no such person in the world anymore.

Therefore, Bai Fan’s troubles are no longer troubles.

"Tomorrow?" However, Lin Tao was not too concerned about the upcoming Skynet mecha battle.

Skynet rankings. When Lin Tao in later generations was still in the mecha division department, his name was no longer on this list.

That’s right, Lin Tao of later generations, even when he was in the mecha master department, had already won the first place in Tianwai Tian. Otherwise, he would not have been able to achieve the title of the first ancient martial arts mecha master in the Interstellar Federation.

"Lin Tao, you...ah!" The bald middle-aged man who had watched the whole process from beginning to end couldn't help but sigh when he saw Lin Tao drink Goldu. However, he was not worried about Lin Tao, but Li Ang.

He walked forward, leaned over, and begged in a low voice beside Lin Tao: "Lin Tao, no, Brother Lin, no matter whether you win or lose, can you please not cause trouble for Li Ang?"

"Oh?" Lin Tao said.

After the bald middle-aged man glanced at the Du family siblings and others, he whispered again: "Brother Lin, I know you have a background in the Blood Wolf Gang. Although Li Ang is one of my investors, I am also relatively close to his family, so..."

"Don't worry, if you can persuade him not to bother me again after this, I won't bother him either." Lin Tao said indifferently.

…

At the same time, in the First Mecha Academy, the dean’s office.

All the department heads, except Sun Kangping, were present.

"Huh? Why isn't Old Sun here?" The speaker was Su Juncheng, the head of the Department of Mechanical Fundamentals. He had a good personal relationship with Sun Kangping, and he looked around while speaking.

After Su Juncheng said this, many department heads immediately noticed that Head Sun Kangping was missing, and they couldn't help but feel confused.

Upon hearing this, Department Head Tian Zhi's face suddenly turned gloomy and he said nothing.

Lu Xuewen and Tong Zhihe frowned and said nothing.

Wei Lin, the head of the Mecha Division, frowned. "Why did the dean call us here for no reason? Where is he? Where is he?"

In the dean's office, apart from department head Sun Kangping, the dean was also missing.

"This old bastard called us over while I was still having lunch, but he disappeared." Hu Wei, the head of the Electronic Design Department, was furious and his stomach could be heard rumbling faintly.

The department head next to him heard it and couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh out loud.

"Old Lu, what's wrong with you? Why do you always have this expression on your face? Could it be that your troublemaker Lin Tao has made you angry again after Old Tong?" Dean Rui Zhi of the Chassis Department couldn't help but teasing him when he saw the expressions of Lu Xuewen and others.

"I heard that Lin Tao used 100 million yuan to create a problem in their Materials Department. Could it be that this problem really stumped everyone in your department?" Wei Lin also laughed.

"What do you mean by a thorn?" Before Lu Xuewen could even open his mouth, Tong Zhihe couldn't stand it anymore. He glared at him and shouted back, "Lin Tao is a rare student with extensive knowledge and talent. You two are crazy to call such a student a thorn?"

quiet--

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire dean's office fell into a silence as dead as death.

Lin Tao is knowledgeable and talented? He is rare? All the department heads looked at each other, staring at each other, with an expression of disbelief.

If these words were spoken by Mr. Lu from Lin Tao's department, they might be able to listen to them, but when they were spoken by Director Tong, they really felt that they were at a loss for words.

Because Director Tong was not only in a different department from Lin Tao, but he was also the first person Lin Tao contradicted at the school gate.

Could it be that Director Tong is really a good department head who is willing to let bygones be bygones?

Bullshit! The department heads present have been colleagues for many years, so how could they not understand each other?

But why would Lao Tong speak for Lin Tao?

"Lao Tong, you...you..." Wei Lin opened his mouth wide, his brain was confused and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Rui Zhi's eyes widened as well, as if his brain was really broken.

"Okay, okay, can't you all say less?" At this time, Lu Xuewen also frowned and said, "The dean asked us to come here today because of Lin Tao's matter."

"The dean is dealing with some things now. He will come over when he is done. You will know what is going on if you wait a little longer." Department Head Tian Zhi also spoke.

"this……"

What is going on?

They were called to a regular meeting just for this troublemaker Lin Tao?

The department heads' eyes widened.

Fortunately, the dean finally came back after a short while, but his face did not look very good, a little pale, and he seemed to be in a very bad mood.

After the dean came back, the department heads finally calmed down.

"Ahem!" The dean sat back in the dean's chair and coughed twice at everyone: "I called everyone here today to discuss two things. The first is to announce the punishment of Sun Kangping, the head of the Framework Design Department..."

"What? You want to punish me?"

"No wonder Old Sun is not here."

"What's going on? I've been in the framework design department for a long time. What happened?"

"Dean, Lao Sun is a good person, why did he punish me with just one word?"

"Yes, didn't Old Lu just say that today's regular meeting was only about Lin Tao's matter? Why is Old Sun involved again?"

Before the dean had finished speaking, all the department heads were in an uproar.

A department head can impose disciplinary action as he pleases, a power that even the dean does not have. What on earth happened that he directly imposed disciplinary action without them knowing anything and announced it now?

"Alright, alright." Hearing the shouting of the department heads, the dean quickly raised his hands and leveled them in the air.

Finally, the dean's office fell silent again.

Everyone stared at the dean, waiting for an explanation. Otherwise, who would they go to for justice when it was their turn next time?
