C13 I Am Lin Chen!!

"Qian, does this Zhang Changsheng guy have a younger brother?"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and asked Qian Duoduo in a deep tone.

"Yeah, boss, that jerk Zhang Changsheng definitely has a younger brother. His name is Zhang Changwen, and he's a doctor at the hospital."

"That's not the main issue, boss. The real problem is that this guy is way too cocky!"

"We're your crew, and he's pushed around Lee. Doesn't that show a blatant disregard for you, boss?"

Qian Duoduo spoke with a sense of justice.

Lin Chen gave Qian Duoduo a sidelong glance. The guy talked a good game, but really, he just wanted Lin Chen to put Zhang Changsheng in his place.

Still, Lin Chen didn't sweat the small stuff.

Now that he had confirmed the connection between Zhang Changwen and Zhang Changsheng, it was only right for him to step in and set this foolhardy cur straight.

Activating his Magical Third Eye, Lin Chen's gaze swept over the car.

Inside, next to Zhang Changsheng, sat a girl with an innocent face in the passenger seat.

She appeared to be in her early twenties, dressed in professional attire, clutching a resume.

"Boss, should I round up some guys and give this scumbag a thrashing?"

Seeing Lin Chen's prolonged silence, Qian Duoduo ventured the question.

His dad might be the chairman, but that didn't make him invincible.

Assaulting the company's general manager was serious business.

Without Lin Chen's backing, Qian Duoduo was sure to catch a beating from his old man once he got home.

"Go apologize to that Zhang Changsheng on behalf of Lee."

After a brief contemplation, Lin Chen instructed Qian Duoduo.

Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo's face registered shock, quickly followed by a surge of disappointment in his gaze.

Sure, Qian Duoduo might be a screw-up, but he knew better than to ignore a brother being harassed.

And Lin Chen? Despite his formidable skills, he was letting them get pushed around. Did such a man deserve to lead?

"What's with that look in your eyes?"

"You think I'm scared of some damn general manager?"

Sensing Qian Duoduo's look of disappointment, Lin Chen's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but smack him on the forehead in irritation.

If Lin Chen wasn't concerned about setting off Ann Lan, that madwoman, he would've already taken Zhang Changsheng down a peg or two.

Qian Duoduo, on the receiving end of the slap, wasn't the least bit upset; in fact, he seemed somewhat pleased.

Clearly, Lin Chen's thoughts were far from what he had imagined.

"Did you see that girl in the passenger seat of Zhang Changsheng's car?"

"She's probably here for a job interview. Zhang Changsheng is taking her down to the basement in his car. What do you think that indicates?"

Lin Chen fixed Qian Duoduo with a serious look and asked.

"Do we even have to guess?"

"He's obviously planning to exploit her."

"Trust me, it wouldn't be the first time Zhang Changsheng has pulled a stunt like this!"

Qian Duoduo didn't hesitate with his response.

Seeing that the kid still hadn't caught on, Lin Chen began to regret taking on such a blockhead as his underling.

"If you're aware of his intentions, then why are you just standing around?"

"Once he's in the underground garage, just sneakily record him with your phone."

"With that video, we'll have that scoundrel right where we want him."

Lin Chen rolled his eyes, his annoyance palpable.

"Holy smokes!"

"Boss, you're a genius. Not only are you unbeatable in a fight, but your smarts are off the charts!"

"You're the epitome of what we all aspire to be. It's no wonder I looked up to you from the first moment I saw you."

After doling out the compliments, Qian Duoduo eagerly made his way toward Zhang Changsheng.

Zhang Changsheng recognized Qian Duoduo and, seeing that he had come to apologize, decided not to hassle a mere security guard any further.

With a dismissive wave, he sped off toward the underground parking lot with the innocent-looking girl in tow.

Shortly thereafter, Lin Chen, along with Qian Duoduo and Lee, arrived at Zhang Changsheng's car.

Qian Duoduo, phone in hand, cautiously filmed the scene inside the car through the window.

"Zhang Xiaoyu, 22 years old, associate degree graduate."

"I've heard your mother is gravely ill and your family desperately needs a substantial amount of money. Is that the case?"

Inside the car, Zhang Changsheng's gaze burned with intensity as he took in Zhang Xiaoyu's striking figure and her innocent visage.

"Mr. Zhang, I assure you, my family issues won't interfere with my work."

Zhang Xiaoyu, thinking Zhang Changsheng was concerned about her mother's illness affecting her job, quickly clarified.

Zhang Changsheng chuckled at her worried expression.

"Xiaoyu, without a high-level education or unique skills, aiming for the general manager position might be a stretch."

He noticed a flicker of disappointment in her eyes and paused before adding, "However, if you agree to one condition, I can make you my secretary and throw in an extra fifty thousand yuan bonus each month."

His hand landed heavily on her delicate, slender hands as he finished speaking. Zhang Xiaoyu, startled, swiftly withdrew her hands.

She was young but not naive; she understood the subtext of Zhang Changsheng's proposition—he was propositioning her.

"Xiaoyu, with a salary of ten thousand yuan, plus a fifty thousand yuan bonus, you're looking at sixty thousand yuan a month. That money could be a big help to you and your mother, couldn't it? Miss this chance, and there won't be another shop like this."

Zhang Changsheng remained calm in the face of her hesitation. He was no stranger to this game; he could dismiss her whenever he grew bored.

As he anticipated, Zhang Xiaoyu's eyes brimmed with tears. She could turn down the lucrative offer, but what about her mother, who was waiting for her salary to pay for medical treatments?

"Damn it, what a complete piece of trash!"

"Lee, grab the electric baton and beat this son of a bitch!"

Qian Duoduo, in the midst of recording, couldn't contain himself any longer as he watched Zhang Changwen's harassment of Zhang Xiaoyu. He bellowed at Lee, who was standing by his side.

As Qian Duoduo swung the car door open, Zhang Changwen caught sight of the two men, and a wave of anger surged across his face.

"Qian Duoduo, have you lost your mind?" he barked.

"I'm the company's general manager, for crying out loud!"

Bang!

Before Zhang Changwen could say another word, Qian Duoduo's electric baton met him with a crackling welcome.

"Lee, remember how this jerk hit you? Give it back to him, just like that!"

"Unbelievable, he's already down and out, and still thinking about underhanded tactics? To hell with that!"

As Qian Duoduo brandished the electric baton, he hurled insults at Zhang Changwen.

"I'll teach you to bully people, to mess with my brother's crew."

"I'll show you arrogance..."

Zhang Xiaoyu, seated in the passenger's side, was utterly dumbfounded by the abrupt turn of events.

"Miss, are you here for the general manager's secretary position?" Lin Chen approached her, his voice tinged with sympathy.

Had Qian Duoduo not intervened when he did, Zhang Xiaoyu might have very well succumbed to Zhang Changsheng's vile proposition.

"Ah? Oh, yes... yes, I am."

"Big brother, I swear, I'm not involved. I haven't done a thing, haven't said a word."

"Please, just let me go. If something happens to me, my mom... she'll be devastated."

Regaining her composure, Zhang Xiaoyu pleaded with Lin Chen.

She recognized that despite being the general manager, Zhang Changwen had been beaten, and yet Lin Chen remained unflustered.

Clearly, he was no ordinary man.

Now, her aspirations for a lucrative job were gone; she just wanted to make it home safely.

"Sister, we're the company's security, not the bad guys," Lin Chen reassured her, sensing her fear.

He then signaled Qian Duoduo to drag Zhang Changsheng out of the car.

"Zhang Changsheng, do you realize who I am?" Lin Chen asked, squatting down with a smirk as he looked at the disheveled man.

"I don't give a damn who you are. You lot, I'll remember your faces!" Zhang Changsheng spat out venomously.

"Go ahead, kill me now if you dare. Otherwise, I swear I'll come back and break your legs myself!"

His eyes ablaze with fury, Zhang Changsheng glared at Lin Chen and Qian Duoduo with unbridled rage.

He was a general manager, and yet he had been thrashed by a few security guards. If this got out, he'd lose face completely.

"Smack!"

Lin Chen's hand landed heavily on Zhang Changsheng's cheek.

In a flash, his face puffed up visibly, swelling rapidly.

"Take note, Qian, always aim for the face when you're hitting someone in the future!"

"The face is quite the asset. It's not only good for knocking out teeth but also for infuriating your opponent to no end."

Lin Chen spoke with a serene expression, imparting his wisdom to Qian Duoduo.

Having said his piece, Lin Chen turned his attention back to Zhang Changsheng.

He offered a reminder with a hint of benevolence, "The name's Lin Chen, the very Lin Chen you were talking about on the phone just before."
