The office director\'s attitude was...too humble, perhaps?

It was no longer merely politeness, it seemed like... bootlicking?

What exactly was Lin Yun\'s status to make the office director grovel so?

"How could it be...how could the director be so courteous to this brat..." Lin Minghui shook his head, murmuring to himself.

For a moment, he felt quite unsettled.

After all, he had just assumed that Lin Yun\'s family would be in trouble and had discouraged his wife from siding with them.

This sudden turn of events had left him feeling as if he had been slapped in the face.

"How to handle it is your official business. If there\'s anything you need us to cooperate with, we will," Lin Yun glanced at the iron-eyed director and stated calmly.

He had a good memory. He remembered seeing the director at the wedding earlier that day. There was a seventeen or eighteen year-old boy by his side, one of the boys who had bullied him at his sister\'s school two days ago, who claimed his father was a director.

Considering the men\'s references to this man and his own intuitions, Lin Yun guessed that this man was probably the boy\'s father.

However, he didn\'t hold any grudges against the boy.

Throughout the interaction, this man maintained a high level of respect towards him.

But, Lin Yun didn\'t have a very high opinion of this iron-eyed director. He wasn\'t a naive three-year-old. He was almost certain that the director was in cahoots with Zhang Xi, and it was quite possible that Zhang Xi was so arrogant because he was backed by this director.

If he didn\'t have his current achievements and status, their attitude towards him would likely be very different.

Nevertheless, this man was respectful towards him throughout, so he didn\'t want to dig deeper into the matter.

"No need, no need. It\'s clear that these people have committed many evil acts. They\'ve confronted Mr. Lin today, and we already have a lot of evidence against them. We will take them to the station and punish them severely..." Upon hearing Lin Yun\'s indifferent words, the anxiety in the iron-eyed director\'s heart grew stronger, and he quickly interjected.

Zhang Xi, seeing this, attempted to speak up several times, but each time, he was sternly silenced by the law enforcement officers holding him.

"My god, look at all those cars—"

Just then, an exclamation echoed from the neighboring alley.

Quickly, a man rushed out of the alley.

Noticing the crowd, he paused in surprise.

"What... what\'s going on..." He whispered to an acquaintance as he walked towards him.

"It\'s a long story about what\'s happening here, but what were you shrieking about?" The acquaintance whispered back.

"You won\'t believe it - there are so many cars parked in the alley, and they all look like luxury vehicles. There are also a bunch of people in black... just like those two..." The man excitedly explained, his words trailing off as he noticed the two men in black standing beside Lin Yun. He was taken aback and began to stutteringly speak.

Although their voices were low, it was a rather quiet time and many people overheard their conversation. Some curious onlookers couldn\'t help but head towards the alley.

"Oh—"

"My god—"

The next moment, everyone drew a sharp breath.

The alley was filled with rows of posh cars and dozens of men in black... it radiated an unmistakably strong aura.

"These cars... look like Emperors and Sabers... and a lot of them seem to be Emperor X9s and Saber A9s..." Recognizing the makes of some of the vehicles, some of the younger members of the crowd expressed their astonishment.

Each Emperor X9 or Saber A9 car costs millions, yet there were so many here. How much money was that?

"So many people in black... their clothes... they\'re similar to those two guys standing next to Lin Yun... Could it be, all these people, these cars were brought by Lin Yun?" Some people noticed the men in black and were stunned, voicing their disbelief.

They had just witnessed how powerful the two men in black next to Lin Yun were. They took on fifty to sixty people as if it was child\'s play. Could all of these men in black be as powerful? And if they were all brought by Lin Yun...

The crowds seemed to vaguely understand why the director had been so respectful to Lin Yun.

Though the power of the government was something ordinary people feared.

However, when some individuals reach a certain level of power, the authority of an official like the director seemed insignificant.

Realizing this, some people immediately regretted their past actions.

Who would\'ve thought that Lin Yun, after leaving for a few years, would attain such remarkable success?

If they had known that Lin Yun had become so influential, they would\'ve stood up for the Lin family earlier. Wouldn\'t they then be in the good graces of the Lin family?

Given how successful Lin Yun had become, he could likely easily help them attain considerable wealth.

Some of them were initially compelled to stand up for their own townspeople in the face of this outside threat but refrained due to the overpowering presence of the outsiders.

Filled with regret, they couldn\'t help but ponder on what could have been.

As more and more people reacted with shock, the crowd started to grow.

More people moved towards the alley.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yun\'s parents became curious. Lin Yun didn\'t stop them; he took their hands and walked with them towards the alley.

After all, he had brought these bodyguards and vehicles back to show his parents his prosperity and success.
