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

Chapter 82

Old Qian and the others looked at each other, finally understanding what Captain Qian meant, and they all grinned, revealing their big yellow teeth.

"It seems that it wasn't the flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple, but rather the flood that washed away the little toad."

"Hey... Mr. Lin, where's your hat? I can't find it."

"Still acting arrogant, young man? You and your henchmen will all be going to jail."

Yang Mengyu's pretty face was icy cold as she said in a chilling voice, "Captain Qian, you represent the image of police officers, so please watch your tone of voice!"

"You dare to point fingers at me, you mistress?" Captain Qian said smugly. "Let me tell you, your man has offended our chief. You'd better stay away from him to avoid trouble."

He looked at Lin Ling with a sneer: "You're in big trouble for inciting a crowd to cause trouble."

Black Wolf's henchmen all changed their expressions.

Isn't Lin Ling's background very powerful?

How dare even a lowly police officer point fingers at him?

Black Wolf, however, remained calm, clearly aware of the power struggles between these important figures.

A nobody like Captain Qian who tries to cause trouble will only get crushed easily.

He glared at his underlings, telling them to calm down.

Lin Ling frowned, took out her phone, and called Li Qitian.

Director Kong is incredibly audacious. He has dirt on him, yet he still dares to instruct his subordinates to target him.

When the call connected, he briefly explained the situation, including how Director Kong had instructed Captain Qian to target him.

Then Li Qitian asked Captain Qian to come over and answer the phone.

Captain Qian took the phone, but instead of being afraid, he provocatively asked, "Deputy Director Li, you're not going to protect your friend, are you?"

"He not only beat up the farmers, but also gathered dozens of people from underground forces."

"If you make a big fuss about this, you might not be able to keep your hat on anymore."

Li Qitian's calm voice rang out: "Captain Qian, I advise you not to go looking for trouble."

"Trouble? Hmph! I'm just asking for trouble by upholding the law?" Captain Qian scoffed.

He considered himself to be part of Director Kong's faction and was not afraid of Li Qitian at all.

Li Qitian smiled and said, "Give the phone back to Lin Ling."

Lin Ling took the phone and heard Li Qitian chuckle in a low voice: "Turn off the speakerphone and call Director Kong. He just wants to give you face and make you owe him a favor."

"Captain Qian is such a fool. He was sold out and he's still helping Director Kong count the money. He's a complete idiot."

Lin Ling understood immediately upon hearing this, and her gaze towards Captain Qian became more sarcastic before she hung up the phone.

Captain Qian's face was full of mockery: "How about that? Don't think that just because you have a good relationship with Deputy Director Li I won't dare to deal with you. I have Director Kong behind me."

"Hey guys, cuff Mr. Lin!"

After he finished speaking, several police officers surrounded Lin Ling.

Yang Mengyu's face turned panicked. Being arrested and taken to the police station wasn't a big deal, as it wouldn't do anything to Lin Ling, but it would delay her trip to the provincial capital.

Lin Ling smiled faintly: "Wait, let me call Director Kong and ask."

Since Director Kong wants me to owe him a favor, I'll just play along.

"Hahaha!" Captain Qian laughed until tears streamed down his face. "It was Director Kong who ordered me to arrest you, and you even called him to plead for your life? Are you out of your mind?"

Lin Ling ignored him and dialed a number, saying, "Director Kong, your men are a bit clueless. They're trying to arrest me by twisting the truth."

He briefly recounted the events, then sneered, "He also said that you instructed him to target me."

Captain Qian, believing Lin Ling was doomed, arrogantly said, "Of course, don't waste your energy."

Having said that, he waited smugly for Director Kong's praise.
