Chapter 211: Really a counterstrike?

Three people from the Discipline Inspection Commission arrived; the leader bore the surname Zu and held the rank of Section Chief.

Shen Bing and Section Chief Zu were obviously old acquaintances.

Upon seeing Section Chief Zu, Shen Bing, as if grabbing a lifeline, lifted her newly handcuffed hands and accused Section Chief Zu: "Section Chief Zu, Lin Dongfan has abused his power and retaliated—what is going on?"

Section Chief Zu glanced at the handcuffs on her hands.

He then glanced at Lin Dongfan.

Seeing Lin Dongfan holding an arrest warrant in his hand,

Section Chief Zu couldn't help but frown slightly; even if he wanted to help Shen Bing, he dared not say more on the scene, for Lin Dongfan had an arrest warrant in hand, making the procedure at least lawful.

But, I am here to summon you, and I am also acting lawfully and in compliance!

Section Chief Zu, stern and resolute, pressured Lin Dongfan: "Section Chief Lin, stop dragging this out—please come with us for a moment!"

"Why should I go with you?" Lin Dongfan said calmly.

Section Chief Zu spoke sternly: "Why, don't you know what you've done? I called you this morning, you didn't cooperate, so I can only come here to summon you!"

"All I know is you're obstructing official duties." Lin Dongfan said: "When I was arresting the suspects in the corruption case, you jumped in halfway to cause trouble—where are your loyalties?"

That cold question left Section Chief Zu's face dark with anger.

Section Chief Zu glared with bull's eyes: "We received a report that you own four courtyard houses, with huge property of unclear source! Isn't that reason enough? Please cooperate with our work and come back to clarify! If you refuse to cooperate, I can only take compulsory measures! I advise you not to bring embarrassment upon yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two Discipline Inspection Commission workers beside him readied themselves to make the arrest.

Seeing Section Chief Zu's firm resolve,

Shen Bing's confidence also grew considerably, and she lightly laughed at Lin Dongfan: "Surname Lin, so you're actually a big corrupt official? It's really hard to tell."

That wanton mockery was somewhat ignorant.

When everyone around focused their gaze on Lin Dongfan, shocked by the 'corrupt official' label, Ye Jiaying instead grew calmer, for she knew exactly how Lin Dongfan's wealth came about.

Ye Jiaying stepped forward to explain to Section Chief Zu: "Leader, could there be some misunderstanding? As far as I know, the property of Lin's office is all legitimately obtained."

Section Chief Zu gave Ye Jiaying a once‑over.

Although Ye Jiaying's figure and appearance were shocking, Section Chief Zu maintained a cold, aloof official demeanor on the surface, paying no heed to her words.

Lin Dongfan flared: "Deaf? Didn't you hear the crowd's voices?"

"You're spouting wild talk even at death's door!" Section Chief Zu coldly barked: "Arrest Lin Dongfan!" That order completely changed Section Chief Zu's official fortune.

When those two Discipline Inspection Commission workers stepped forward to seize him, Lin Dongfan swiftly threw a punch.

Whether in Nanzhou, Wuzhou, or Jingcheng, Lin Dongfan had always kept up his hobby of hitting sandbags, the power of a self‑taught boxer, swift as a tiger.

It took less than two seconds in total.

Section Chief Zu's two subordinates were both knocked to the ground.

This violent scene left Section Chief Zu's face ashen: "Lin Dongfan! You're violently resisting the law—today you… uh…!"

What a gloomy sound.

Before Section Chief Zu could finish speaking, a kick struck his abdomen, sending him flying three meters back and toppling the celebration flower baskets behind him.

The next second, the scene fell into dead silence.

Lin Dongfan had come to arrest Shen Bing, while the Discipline Inspection Commission had come to summon Lin Dongfan; the on‑looking celebrities were dumbfounded, never expecting Lin Dongfan to be so formidable—not only a martial practitioner, but daring to strike even Discipline Inspection Commission personnel.

Before Section Chief Zu could get up,

Lin Dongfan produced the handcuffs he carried, snapped them onto Section Chief Zu: "Obstructing official duties, attempting to assist a criminal suspect's escape! Article 417 of the Criminal Law—please familiarize yourself."

!!!

The tightness in his chest hadn't eased when another blow came from above—did he just win a free silver bracelet?

Section Chief Zu was dazed, his whole person stunned on the spot, completely unable to recall what Article 417 of the Criminal Law says.

All he knew was that Lin Dongfan had slapped a label on him—'attempting to assist a criminal suspect's escape'!

Thus.

Was that kick therefore reasonable and lawful?

Damn it!

Section Chief Zu furiously roared: "Lin Dongfan! Stop spouting bloody nonsense here! I have nothing to do with Shen Bing. I already made it clear—I summoned you to the Discipline Inspection Commission to answer questions! Stop trying to turn the tables. Now you're violently resisting the law—don't get too pleased too soon; you'll regret it."

"I already reported my personal assets to the organization yesterday—lawful and compliant." Lin Dongfan said: "What qualifications do you have to summon me?"

Section Chief Zu glared: "Who did you report your assets to?!"

"To the organization."

At this moment Lin Dongfan guessed that his declaration materials might very well not yet have reached the Z Discipline Inspection Commission.

But it's no matter—Director Li is someone who knows how to explain.

Lin Dongfan hauled Section Chief Zu up from the ground, then turned to the other two Discipline Inspection Commission specialists: "Don't lie there playing dead—do you have handcuffs?"

That punch just now had shaken their souls to the core—they really weren't feigning unconsciousness.

Seeing that Section Chief Zu was now under control,

The two on the ground instantly grasped Lin Dongfan's meaning, hastily produced handcuffs and cuffed themselves, right or wrong, they'd cooperate first to avoid a beating.

Once all three Discipline Inspection Commission personnel were subdued,

Lin Dongfan walked up to Shen Bing and said: "See? This is what professionalism looks like."

!!!

Shen Bing was gritting her teeth, staring with almond‑shaped eyes, invincible for forty years, yet at this moment Lin Dongfan trampled her into an abyss.

She anguishedly asked: "What exactly have I done to offend you?"

"You haven't offended me; you've offended the law."

Lin Dongfan furrowed his brow, then shifted his tone: "Did you just hit Ye Jiaying? Apologize to her, and I'll consider letting you swap answer sheets."

!!!

Shen Bing turned to look at Ye Jiaying.

In front of so many people, apologize to her? Just thinking about it makes Shen Bing unwilling—she doesn't know how to behave, what right do I have to apologize to her!

But she only dares to think about this anger in her heart.

"Ms. Ye, I was impulsive just now; I hope you don't hold it against me."

Whether this bow was sincere or not doesn't matter.

Because Ye Jiaying couldn't care less, her eyes were only for Lin Dongfan; she simply gazed at him quietly, saying nothing, and that was enough for her lifetime.

"What is the other answer?" Shen Bing asked Lin Dongfan.

Lin Dongfan lit a cigarette, then replied calmly: "On the other answer sheet it says: Please refer to the previous answer sheet."

"In front of so many people, you're messing with me?" Shen Bing looked at Lin Dongfan, wanting to cry but unable to.

Lin Dongfan couldn't be bothered to pay attention, turned and walked away: "Take that scoundrel and bring them all back!" A true king, does messing with you still need to report to anyone?

When the news of Shen Bing's arrest reached Jia Yuzhang's ears, Jia Yuzhang hurriedly left the meeting site, preparing to flee.
