Judging by Lu Chunxue’s reaction, the check had to be real.
There was no way it was fake!
“That won’t be necessary.
You did a good job,” Lu Chunxue forced out.
“Chunxue, this…” Dong Liya looked as though she’d swallowed a dead fly, unable to accept the result before her.
“Lin Yu must have just gotten some bullshit luck to get the money back.
He just got lucky this time,” Xie Mingcheng sneered, his face ashen.
Lin Yu shot Xie Mingcheng a cold glance, and he immediately shut his mouth, not daring to speak another word.
“Manager Lu, you think a simple ‘good job’ is the end of it?
A moment ago, you laid into me the second I walked in the door without even trying to get the facts straight.
Don’t you think you owe me an apology?”
“Also, doesn’t our company have a policy about this?
I brought back ten million, so there should be a pretty big bonus, right?
And this recognition ceremony…
it’s for me, isn’t it?
It seems a little…
underprepared.”
“Do I need to remind you?
Where are the big red flowers?
The banner?
And your speech?”
He was pushing it, but no one on site dared to question Lin Yu.
The man had brought back ten million yuan; he deserved this treatment.
Lu Chunxue was extremely unwilling, but the facts were staring her in the face.
She could only force a smile and say, “Chen Luo, go to the shop downstairs.
Get a banner and buy two big red flowers.”
‘What kind of mess is this?!’ Chen Luo didn’t want to go, but he had no choice.
Before long, Chen Luo returned with the big red flowers and the banner.
He hung the banner in the conference room, and Lin Yu and Liu Huamin were invited onto the stage, where the red flowers were pinned to their chests.
Liu Huamin was overjoyed.
This was all thanks to Lin Yu.
The smile on Lu Chunxue’s face was worse than a grimace.
Holding the microphone, she announced, “Lin Yu and Liu Huamin’s performance was excellent.
I hope everyone will learn from their example in the future.”
“In the future, if anyone performs as well as they did, I will hold a recognition ceremony for them, too.
Let’s have a round of applause.”
After speaking, Lu Chunxue felt like she was about to vomit, but she still had to lead the applause.
Below the stage, the employees all watched Lin Yu and Liu Huamin with great envy, clapping nonstop.
“What a fucking buzzkill!” Xie Mingcheng couldn’t stand to watch anymore.
He grabbed Dong Liya and stormed out, slamming the door behind him and leaving Lu Chunxue in a very awkward position.
After the recognition ceremony was over, Lu Chunxue returned to her office and called Dong Liya.
“Liya, tell Mingcheng that what happened today was my fault…
I never expected Lin Yu could actually get that ten million back.”
Dong Liya replied, quite dejected, “Chunxue, next time, you have to be sure before you call us over.
Mingcheng just chewed me out because of this.”
“But I don’t blame you.
We’re still sisters.”
After hanging up, Lu Chunxue angrily slammed a folder from her desk onto the floor, sending papers scattering everywhere.
…
After work, Lin Yu bought some food and headed home.
He had originally planned to buy an electric scooter, since Xing Tianlong had given him five million yuan.
But he knew he wouldn’t be able to explain it to his sister and Wu Xueyao.
Just as he arrived home, Lin Yu saw that the front door was wide open, and he could faintly hear his sister’s cries from inside.
“Son of a bitch!” Lin Yu rushed toward the door, his killing intent flaring.
‘He’d only been back at work for one day, and someone was already here bullying his sister again?’
He had sworn that he would never let his sister suffer the slightest grievance again.
This time, he would absolutely not spare whoever had bullied her.
“Sis, who bullied you?
I’ll kill them.”
Lin Yu burst into the room and saw his sister’s face streaked with tears, which made his anger flare even higher.
“Brother, you’re finally back.” Hearing Lin Yu’s voice, He Xiaoqi finally felt a sense of relief, but this only made her cry even harder.
“Sis, did Dong Liya send people to bully you again?
I’ll go settle the score with her right now.”
Lin Yu turned, his killing intent intensifying as he prepared to charge out the door.
“Brother, come back!
It wasn’t Qiangzi and his men.
They took Sister-in-law!”
“Those men were vicious.
Sister-in-law didn’t want to go with them, so they used force.”
He Xiaoqi had been lonely by herself for two years.
She had finally found a kindred spirit to be her companion, only to have her suddenly taken away by bad men.
It left her heartbroken.
She cried again, “Brother, you have to bring Sister-in-law back.”
“Wu Xueyao was taken?” Lin Yu frowned.
“Sis, when she was taken, did she tell you where they were taking her?”
Lin Yu needed to save Wu Xueyao, but without knowing her whereabouts, running out would be flying blind.
He Xiaoqi sobbed and shook her head.
“I don’t know, but they just took Sister-in-law.
It’s been less than three minutes.”
“Sis, you wait for me at home.
I’m going to find her right now.”
Lin Yu put down the food he was holding and secretly circulated his Spiritual Qi.
In an instant, his senses became incredibly sharp.
He could now detect any scent within a radius of several hundred meters.
Wu Xueyao’s scent still lingered.
Lin Yu followed it, sprinting at top speed.
Soon, he tracked them to an alley, where he saw Wu Xueyao being forced into a black SUV.
Seeing Wu Xueyao, Lin Yu broke into a sprint and reached the front of the vehicle in a few long strides.
The man in the suit leading them was the same square-faced man he had encountered on the bus.
When the man saw Lin Yu, he was clearly startled.
“How did you find this place?” the square-faced man asked, staring at Lin Yu with a wary expression.
“Let her go,” Lin Yu said coolly, relieved to see that Wu Xueyao was unharmed.
“Lin Yu, save me!
I don’t want to go with them,” Wu Xueyao cried out, overjoyed and deeply moved to see him.
Lin Yu comforted her, “Don’t worry.
Since I’m here, I’ll definitely take you home.”
His gaze shifted to the square-faced man.
“Are you going to let her go yourselves, or are you waiting for me to make you?”
The square-faced man’s expression instantly turned ugly.
He knew they definitely couldn’t win in a fight.
They had acted quickly this time precisely to grab Wu Xueyao while Lin Yu was gone.
They never expected that Lin Yu would somehow manage to track them all the way here.
“We’re definitely not letting her go,” the square-faced man finally said through gritted teeth.
“She’s in our hands now.
Don’t do anything reckless.”
“Are you threatening me?” Lin Yu sneered.
“What’s taking so long?
Get her in the car already!” an impatient voice called out from the front passenger seat.
Immediately after, Wu Menglong got out of the car.
“Lin Yu?
It’s you?” Wu Menglong was startled to see Lin Yu, but then a cruel smile spread across his lips.
“I haven’t forgotten that you hit me.
Get him and cripple him.”
Wu Menglong pointed at Lin Yu and roared.
He knew full well that the square-faced man and his crew were far more skilled than the security guards at his company.
Taking care of Lin Yu should be a simple matter for them.
The square-faced man and his crew had no choice but to brace themselves and charge at Lin Yu.
Lin Yu flicked his fingers forward a few times, sending several streams of Powerful Qi striking the knees of the square-faced man and his crew.
With a series of THUDS, the men collapsed to the ground, screaming in agony.
“Shaping Powerful Qi?
You’re a Transform Force Stage master?” the square-faced man exclaimed in horror.
The ranks of a Martial Artist, from lowest to highest, were Body Cultivation, Transform Force, and Celestial Spirit.
A Martial Artist in the Body Cultivation Realm possessed physical attributes far beyond that of an ordinary person and could fight ten men at once.
Upon reaching the Transform Force Stage, one could project Powerful Qi to injure enemies from several meters away.
A master in the Celestial Spirit Realm could shatter a massive boulder with their bare hands.
A Martial Artist at the Celestial Spirit Realm was even capable of founding their own sect.
“What’s a ‘Transform Force Stage’?” Lin Yu frowned.
All his skills were learned from an ancient legacy; he didn’t know the modern cultivation realms for Martial Artists.
When Wu Menglong saw that even the square-faced man and his crew were no match for Lin Yu, he started cursing furiously.
“You useless pieces of trash!
You can’t even handle one little punk!”
“You’ve truly disappointed me.”
As he cursed, he even postured as if he were about to charge Lin Yu, but in the next second, he scrambled into the car, started the engine, and sped away in a flash.
Seeing that Lin Yu wasn’t chasing him, Wu Menglong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
‘Damn it, good thing I’m a fast runner!
I can’t believe that kid is so powerful.
No wonder even Xing Tianlong doesn’t dare to mess with him.’
After driving a few kilometers, Wu Menglong finally picked up his phone and dialed a number.
“Aunt, I messed up…”
From the other end of the line came an ice-cold rebuke.
“What happened?
You messed up again?
Is it really that hard to capture an unarmed Wu Xueyao?”
“Wu Menglong, first you cost the Wu family over ten million today, and now you’ve botched this as well.
I think it’s about time we found someone else for your position as president.”
