NOVEL NEXT Chapter 301 Gratitude
"How come these guys are taking so long to come? They've never been this slow before when doing a job!"
Lawyer Liu was getting a bit impatient. He wanted to call his brothers, but no one answered.
It was at this moment that the door was kicked open.
Hei Lang and his men rushed in, quickly encircling the area.
Lawyer Liu was dumbstruck on the spot. What's going on? How had the situation reversed in an instant?
"Who are you people? Who let you in? Get out now, do you know who I am? If you dare to cross me, be careful, I'll make it so you can't survive in this city!"
But he was just a lawyer and yet sounded so arrogant—it seemed there were other forces behind him.
Hei Lang recorded everything, intending to bring it back to Lin Yi so that Lin Yi could deal with the people backing Lawyer Liu.
"We don't need to know who you are. We're here on a mission, and these two are not people you can afford to offend. Hand them over to me now, and you might have a chance to live. If you refuse to compromise, then you'll have to die here."
Hei Lang was a cold-hearted and ruthless person; thus, he wouldn't entertain unnecessary thoughts.
He had already warned Lawyer Liu. If Lawyer Liu didn't back down, then Hei Lang would execute him on the spot.
People like Fang Zheng, of Lawyer Liu's ilk, were a blight upon the world even if they remained alive.
Wang Guixiang hadn't expected that, at a crucial moment, it would be Lin Yi's men coming to her rescue.
"Boss, we're surrounded. If we don't surrender, it seems we really will die here just as he says."
Not knowing the other party's influence but to make such bold statements and to find them in such a short time shows that their boss is no ordinary person.
Lawyer Liu was, in fact, somewhat hesitant.
"Fine, we'll hand them over to you now, but you must retreat and not harm any of us."
Since there was no way to salvage the situation, the best course of action was to protect his brothers as much as possible.
Hei Lang agreed and then took away Wang Guixiang and her son.
Lawyer Liu stood on the spot, unable to recover from the shock for a long time.
Where had it all gone wrong? How could they have been exposed so quickly?
"It seems that no one can help Director Zhao this time."
Zhao Guangchen's luck had run out; no one could help him now.
Lawyer Liu had done whatever he could, and now not only had he failed to secure the necessary evidence, but he had also been compromised by the adversary.
So, for Lawyer Liu, the priority was self-preservation, not dealing with Director Zhao.
Hei Lang took Wang Guixiang and her son to meet Lin Yi.
When they saw Lin Yi, Wang Guixiang and her son immediately fell to their knees with a thud.
"What are you doing? Get up quickly; besides, the child is so young, it's not good to teach him this," Lin Yi said.
Lin Yi was also taken aback by Wang Guixiang's action.
This woman couldn't be out of her mind, could she? Why on earth was she suddenly kneeling? He hadn't mistreated her.
Wang Guixiang was sobbing with snot and tears; she really didn't know how to express her gratitude to Lin Yi.
```
If it hadn't been for Lin Yi, their mother and son would probably be in heaven by now.
"Lin Yi, I really don't know how to repay you. Although the documents I gave you before were my duty, if you ever need me in the future, please just say the word. I would gladly lay down my life for you. I'm truly grateful to you, Lin Yi, for saving both of us!"
Wang Guixiang expressed her gratitude to Lin Yi once again.
Her son also just realized that this big brother was their savior.
"It's okay, you don't have to worry about it. Besides, we were already business partners, how could I stand by and watch you die? Alright, enough with the grand gestures, get up quickly, I accept your thanks."
Lin Yi urged them to get up quickly, feeling somewhat awkward about the situation.
After Wang Guixiang and her son stood up, Da Bao suddenly ran to Lin Yi and hugged his thigh.
Was this what they called 'clinging to the powerful's thigh'?
"Da Bao, what are you doing? Come back here quickly!"
Wang Guixiang was startled by her son's actions, worried about how Lin Yi might react if he got angry.
To her surprise, Da Bao clung to Lin Yi's leg and looked up at him with an innocent face.
"Big brother, I know you saved us, and I'm really thankful for that. Big brother, I don't know how to repay you. I'm too weak right now, but if you can wait, when I grow up, I will definitely help you!"
The child was too adorable, somewhat like Lin Yi's own Er Bao.
Er Bao had once said the same thing to Lin Yi.
He felt that he was still particularly weak and couldn't protect his parents well, so he was determined to become stronger.
Hopefully, his dad could rely on him by that time.
"Da Bao, what are you talking about? How can you say such things to your brother? Come here quickly!"
Because Lin Yi looked young, even though he was already married, in the end, Wang Guixiang still let her son call Lin Yi 'brother'.
"It's fine. My own son has said the same thing to me. It seems you two are quite alike. If there's a chance in the future, I'll let you be friends. You can go home now, it's safe. Plus, I've arranged for people to protect you, so you don't have to worry about being threatened again."
Lin Yi patted Da Bao's head and signaled that they could go home.
Lin Yi wouldn't engage in too much conversation with a woman, after all, it would make Han Xuewei angry. Your journey continues with empire
"I'm really grateful to you, Lin Yi."
Wang Guixiang also understood the importance of avoiding danger, so she quickly left with her son, who kept looking back at Lin Yi as they departed.
"Mom, that big brother is so amazing, he didn't even show up and saved us. I want to become like him in the future!"
The child spoke candidly, and in fact, Wang Guixiang herself believed in her son's words.
One day, he would surely become someone like Lin Yi, as impressive as Lin Yi.
After Wang Guixiang and her son had left, Lin Yi began dealing with the following matters.
Director Zhao's situation was probably in complete chaos by now.
Just as Lin Yi had expected, Zhao Guangchen was terrified upon receiving the information from Lawyer Liu.
He had never imagined that things would have come to this point without accomplishing anything.
"It's over, completely over. What should I do now? There's no one who can help me. Lin Yi has destroyed everything for me!"
Zhao Guangchen finally realized the severity of the issue; he should never have opposed Lin Yi from the start.
