Chapter 2928: Chapter 2928: The Challenger
As these words came out, Ma Zhengqing was completely dumbfounded, suddenly feeling a chill down his spine.
Only now did he understand everything.
He had offended not just a famous entrepreneur!
But a highly influential figure whose power is pervasive!
The person not only sent their lawyer over!
But secretly, has dealt with him already!
Cold sweat instantly started trickling down from his forehead, as he nervously said:
"Leader, this matter is a misunderstanding, I will withdraw the lawyer’s letter right now."
"This is not something I can decide, it depends on their mood."
With that, the other party directly hung up the phone, not giving Ma Zhengqing a chance to speak further.
The office was extremely quiet, eerily so, leaving only Ma Zhengqing’s anxious breathing.
The invisible fear quickened his heartbeat.
Never did he imagine that this situation would escalate to such a level.
Ma Huaiyang sat calmly in his chair, as if nothing had happened.
Although he didn’t know what was said on the phone, he could guess a bit from Ma Zhengqing’s attitude and fragmented words.
This matter seemed to have reached a conclusion.
Gao Weiyi also felt the same, so tense he was almost unable to sit still, as if there were nails on the chair.
"Director Ma, listen to me, this matter is a misunderstanding, and not as you imagined."
Ma Zhengqing hurriedly changed his attitude, looking at Ma Huaiyang as if he were staring at an ancestor.
"We’ll withdraw the lawsuit now, and then go to apologize to Director Lin in person, hoping Director Lin can give me a chance."
"No." Ma Huaiyang gestured to stop Ma Zhengqing from approaching, saying:
"I think it’s better to handle this matter as business, and our leader already said, he doesn’t like you disturbing Director Lin, or else the matter would be even harder to manage."
Ma Zhengqing’s face brightened, "Does it mean Director Lin won’t hold us to a higher standard anymore? That’s great, but we must be given a chance to apologize in person."
"Whether he holds you to a higher standard, I don’t know. But the task I received is to handle it properly, so let’s not discuss anything else and follow the regular procedure."
Thud!
Ma Zhengqing’s body went limp and directly sat on the ground, his face as pale as snow.
...
On the other side, Lin Yi had already begun his day’s training.
But to him, these were merely child’s play.
The training intensity was about the same as an ordinary person’s physical exercise.
After yesterday’s incident, Lin Yi had become a celebrity.
During the whole morning, quite a few people came to the fire station to check in, secretly photographing Lin Yi from outside, showing clear signs of star-chasing.
"Lin Bro, after yesterday’s incident, you’ve completely hit it big," said Xu Chunyu.
"I’ve seen several groups of people come and secretly photograph you the whole morning."
Although related videos had been blocked, many people clearly saw yesterday’s live stream.
This kind of thing couldn’t be blocked.
"Let them shoot, just take it as promoting the fire station." Lin Yi was already used to such things and felt nothing.
"The problem is you’re gonna be famous now, a celebrity at the fire station from now on."
"Don’t make a fuss."
"Hey handsome, turn your head this way."
While the two were talking, a voice came from outside the fence.
It was a girl in a JK uniform, holding a phone and waving at Lin Yi.
"Ah—so handsome!"
The moment Lin Yi turned his head, it triggered a wave of screams.
He then noticed that outside the fire station, stood a line of people, all seemingly there to secretly photograph him.
Other members of the class stood observing the commotion, not intending to stop it.
Quickly, the noon training was over, and the team was dismissed for lunch.
Meanwhile, outside the brigade, a new GL8 parked not far away.
After the car stopped, the door opened, and a burly man stepped out.
The man’s name was Sun Guanghua, a UFC fighter who just won the world tournament runner-up, gaining momentum.
To gain more traffic and attention, Sun Guanghua started his own live stream.
Challenging masters from various sects online as a way to attract exposure.
Previously, he had leveraged the fame of Master Ma and Master Lei online, raising his reputation to new heights, profiting thoroughly.
Along with him, there was a man and a woman, both his assistants.
They were named Tao Liu and Li Jing.
"I can’t believe there are so many people gathered, it seems he’s getting popular now," Sun Guanghua said with a smile.
"Yesterday’s live stream was absolutely explosive; although the hype has cooled down, it’s already spread wide, combined with his outstanding looks, naturally he’d become famous."
"Such brainless people," Sun Guanghua said disdainfully:
"I watched the live stream too, although the anesthetic gun’s needle fell out, but that was in the latter half, the anesthetics must have been injected before. Otherwise, given his skills, how could he have taken down that black bear, ridiculous!"
"That’s why his fame has an element of luck," Tao Liu said. "Otherwise, one slap from that bear and he’d be severely injured if not fatal."
"Heh, today I’ll prove him false, and let everyone know his true self!"
After speaking, Sun Guanghua glanced at Li Jing.
"Start the live stream now, let’s warm up first."
"Got it."
After surveying the surroundings, the three returned to the car.
They had previously released a video teaser stating a challenge with a mysterious master, which quickly drew thousands to the live stream upon starting.
In less than three minutes, the viewership broke ten thousand.
"Sun God, who’s the mysterious master you’re challenging today? I’ve been waiting all morning," someone asked in the live chat.
Seeing many similar questions being asked, Sun Guangming chuckled and said:
"Let me keep it a secret first; guess where I am right now?"
"You wouldn’t be blocking the door at his house, right?"
"It looks like that, but you need to be discreet. If the opponent finds out, they’ll definitely escape, unlike yesterday’s Eight Trigram successor, who arranged the meeting but suddenly claimed their second uncle’s grandpa died and fled to another city, quite disappointing."
"Don’t worry, the master I’m challenging today is somewhat special, fleeing is impossible, and I’m already here, there’s no way anything goes wrong today," Sun Guanghua said proudly.
"But the problem is, all the reputable masters have already been challenged, there’s no one left worthy as your opponent."
"Right, those so-called masters, after seeing you, are just like grandsons meeting their grandpa."
"Haha..."
Seeing people in the live stream praising him like this, Sun Guanghua felt great.
"Actually, it’s not as exaggerated as everyone says, but the person I’m challenging today is indeed somewhat special, let me show everyone where I am first."
With that, Li Jing switched the camera, and the viewers in the live chat were instantly abuzz!
