Ye Tianchen did not look down on Lin Duan. On the contrary, he was indeed considering recruiting Lin Duan because Lin Duan was upright and principled, a real tough guy, especially since he had become the head of Tianlin Law Firm, which was similar to a Mercenary Group. His strength was definitely not low, and he was certainly not the type who was brave but lacked strategies.
The reason Ye Tianchen said he needed to smoke, and lit a cigarette before fighting a big fight with Lin Duan, was not out of contempt but rather a habit. In the times of the apocalypse, items like cigarettes were extremely rare, even considered a luxury, almost impossible to find. In today's world, although there are many hidden experts, things are much more peaceful; at least ordinary people can sit down and quietly have a meal, enjoy a drink, smoke a cigarette.
