After being reborn, I refused to be a sucker, and my whole family was dumbfounded.

Chapter 261

The mayor glanced indifferently at Zeng Fa.

Zeng Fa was immediately terrified: "Mayor, don't listen to that kid's nonsense, I really didn't do it."

"There must be a misunderstanding, you've been wronged. Wait until the banquet is over, and I'll explain."

His eyes were filled with panic.

Although he did do it, as long as he doesn't admit it, there's room for maneuver.

Once you admit it, you're really doomed.

Lin Ling sneered: "I've already handed over all the evidence to Chief Li, and the case has been filed. What else do you want to argue about?"

"I believe the police investigation will be fair and impartial."

"Bullshit!" Zeng Fa roared in fury. "Who doesn't know that Li Qitian is your man?"

"And what the hell are you talking to me about fairness and justice?"

At this moment, Li Qitian, dressed in a proper police uniform, walked in from outside with a serious expression.

All eyes immediately turned to Li Qitian.

Li Qitian saluted the mayor: "Someone just made an urgent report, I'm going to handle it."

"Qi Tian, ​​is there conclusive evidence for this incident?" the mayor asked coldly.

“The evidence is conclusive; it can be confirmed that it was Zeng Fagan.” Li Qitian’s expression turned serious.

"They've been caught." The mayor waved his hand, his face impartial, and said, "I thought the Southern Prefecture under my rule was clean and honest, with no underground forces causing trouble. I never expected there to be such parasites."

"Don't worry, everyone. I, Song Gui, will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give the people of Nanzhou an explanation."

Everyone applauded and flattered him.

"The city leader is wise."

"We cannot let such evil people get away with it."

"He even had the heart to raid an orphanage; he deserved to be arrested."

Zeng Fa turned pale, knowing he had failed today.

Lin Ling has already used methods to put him in the eye of the storm of public opinion.

Anyone who dares to protect him now will give their opponents leverage against them.

Therefore, the mayor had no choice but to issue the arrest order.

Zeng Fa simply stopped pretending and pointed at Lin Ling, yelling, "Kid, you've got guts, you just wait!"

"I will show you how terrible the death will be for those who offend the Zeng family."

"If I ever post this, I will fight you to the death."

Everyone was terrified by this threat, and their eyes were filled with pity as they looked at Lin Ling.

Even if Zeng Fa had hit his adoptive mother, he shouldn't have acted so impulsively.

Offending the Zeng family is not something that Lingyun Group can afford to take.

Lin Tianwu sneered inwardly, never expecting Lin Ling to be so foolish for an old woman and a group of orphans.

He didn't even need to lift a finger; he was already courting death.

But Lin Ling smiled dismissively: "That's what Bai Gou and Kong Lingzhao told me before."

"And what happened? The grass on their graves is already growing."

Zeng choked for a moment, then glared at Lin Ling with suspicion and anger: "How can a little white dog and Kong Lingzhao compare to my Zeng family?"

"Kid, luck won't always be on your side."

"You've really messed with the Zeng family this time. You've really bitten off more than you can chew."

Lin Ling sneered dismissively: "We'll see."

Everyone present took a deep breath.

Although the Zeng family is incredibly powerful, Lin Ling is definitely not someone to be trifled with.

Li Qitian had already led more than a dozen police officers up and taken Zeng Fa away.

Before leaving the banquet hall, Li Qitian glanced at Lin Ling with concern, warning him with his eyes to apologize to the mayor immediately.

Lin Ling nodded and looked at the mayor: "I'm sorry to have disturbed your birthday banquet."

The mayor snorted coldly and said in a cold voice, "Please continue eating and drinking, everyone. Don't let such a small matter affect your mood."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lin Ling tactfully followed.

After the mayor left, the scene immediately erupted in chaos.

"Has Lin Ling gone mad? He even dares to offend the Zeng family."

"He's quite powerful too. Is he just using the Zeng family to establish his authority?"

"It feels like the mayor is on Lin Ling's side."

Su Qingyan secretly rejoiced that she hadn't gotten involved with Lin Ling, otherwise she would have been implicated as well.

She figured she should just wait patiently for the money she'd make from Xinhe Salt Lake to come in.

Don't get involved with Lin Ling anymore.
