Chapter 1062: Let’s go against each other

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

To the reporters, it was understandable for Director Jin to say that it was a mistake but as for who signed the signature, it was a little fishy.

If he even said that that was a mistake, he would just be making fun of their IQ.

At this moment, the spectating townsfolk shouted, “This might really be a mistake. Maybe they have a staff member who has the same name as the old man. Don’t you all think so?”

When these words were said, all the spectators burst into laughter.

“Right, right. That’s understandable. After all, anything can happen. It’s just that we might not have come across such a thing before.”

“Haha. If even that was a mistake, it would be this year’s greatest joke!”

Director Jin’s face turned greenish pale as he raged in his heart. All you people who are here to watch the show aren’t afraid of the consequences at all. What the heck are you all saying?

Although that was an excuse that he could’ve given, he knew that things would really get out of hand if he said that.

Director Jin immediately tried to avoid the problem. “Master Lin, let’s not dig any further into this. We’ll transfer the money to the old man’s card right now, alright?”

Lin Fan shook his head. “Director Jin, I think that you should resolve this matter properly. At least give an explanation. This signature got forged all of a sudden. You guys didn’t check it and even approved of it. It really is inconceivable. Could it be that there really is some kind of corruption involved?”

Hearing that, Director Jin’s expression changed drastically. “Master Lin, you can’t just say things like that. How could we possibly do such things, right?”

“Then what exactly is going on?” Lin Fan pressed.

Director Jin didn’t know what to say momentarily.

At that moment, a fifty-something-year-old man walked over from afar. When he saw this situation, he looked displeased. “What are you all doing? Don’t you know that this is an important place?”

When Director Jin saw him, he immediately rushed forward. “Leader, you’re here. Please quickly speak about the incident to Master Lin and the reporters.”

The leader frowned. “Speak about what? What’s there to speak about? Work mistakes are very normal. Isn’t it alright if we just transfer the money over? What’s so difficult to understand?”

His tone was rather impatient as if he didn’t welcome all these people here.

When Lin Fan saw him, he smiled and asked, “You are...?”

Director Jin hastily introduced him, “This is our leader here, Leader Zhu.”

Zhu Yu Min looked at Lin Fan. “Master Lin, you should know what kind of place this is. Countless citizens have their wealth stored here. What are you all doing, bringing all these reporters over? If there’s an issue, we will solve it. Since there’s an issue with the money, we’ll transfer the money back now. What other problem is there?”

A leader was a leader after all. His demeanor was strong. When he spoke, his voice was resonant. If one didn’t have enough confidence, he or she would have faltered.

Lin Fan said, “Alright then. Since the leader is here, we’ll ask the big leader about the signature. Who over here has such authority to sign on behalf of someone else and even approve such a thing? Was there no need for even a confirmation call?”

“Whats signature? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Zhu Yu Min saw the photocopied document and immediately waved his hand. Then, he turned to Director Jin. “Has the matter been settled yet?”

“It’s been settled. We just have to transfer the money to the old man’s card,” said Director Jin.

“If it’s settled then it’s fine, isn’t it? What other problem could there be? Alright, everyone, hurry up and leave. Don’t stay here any longer.” Zhu Yu Min waved his hand impatiently. He had seen such incidents before. Every time people came, he usually wouldn’t have to personally show up. Most of the time, they would think of ways to settle it very quickly.

This time, although it was a little troublesome because of Master Lin’s involvement, what could possibly happen? This was their territory. How could others behave as they liked here?

Lin Fan furrowed his brows. “What we want to know now is who signed this signature.”

“”

“”

Zhu Yu Min was very impatient. “I don’t know who signed it. If you keep making a scene here, I’ll call the police. And do you still want the money or not? The mistake has already been made. Are you so unwilling to forgive us?”

Lin Fan glanced at Zhu Yu Min and couldn’t help but laugh. “Could it be that you signed it? Judging by your physiognomy, you are quite greedy.”

When the reporters heard this, they were stunned.

Master Lin was really ferocious, to be able to say such a thing so bluntly.

When Zhu Yu Min heard that, he was instantly enraged. “Don’t accuse others like that. Hurry up and leave. Where’s the security?”

The security guards who hadn’t known what to do at first saw this and had only one option. They immediately rushed forward. Since the leader at spoken, they had to obey.

Lin Fan hadn’t expected the leader to be so fierce and his temper to be so explosive. But it was good too. Now, they had matched themselves against each other.

“Right now, either we transfer the money to him or you continue making a ruckus here and I call the police,” said Zhu Yu Min.

Lin Fan patted the old man’s shoulder. “Go. Get the money transferred to your card.”

When the old man heard that, he nodded.

Director Jin saw this and laughed in his heart. He felt that this problem was too simple for his leader. This Master Lin was awesome but even he would get suppressed easily by the leader.

Very soon, the transfer was done.

The old man was in a very good mood after getting his money. He grabbed onto Lin Fan’s arm full of gratitude.

“Alright. This matter has been resolved. Hurry up and go then,” said Zhu Yu Min impatiently.

Lin Fan asked, “Are you really not going to give an explanation for the signature?”

Zhu Yu Min turned around. “What explanation? This was just a work mistake. What’s there to explain?”

“Alright, there’s no hurry. I’ll inquire slowly.” Lin Fan knew that this matter wouldn’t be resolved so quickly. Then, he turned to the old man. “Old man, go home first.”

The old man looked at Lin Fan and asked, “What about you, youngster?”

Lin Fan smiled. “I should go too. All that’s left is for justice to prevail.”

The old man didn’t quite understand. But he nodded and then left.

The reporters had been recording the whole scene. They felt that this leader was rude and unreasonable. It seemed that they would have to expose this incident.

“Alright. My dear reporters, do what you have to do when you go back. Go on then,” said Lin Fan.

The reporters didn’t know what Master Lin’s hidden meaning was but they nodded as well. Then, they all left.

After the reporters left, Lin Fan left too.

Director Jin immediately went forward and started to suck up to the leader. “The leader always has a plan after all.”

Zhu Yu Min glanced at him. “If you encounter such situations in future, don’t give way. The more you give way, the more they will pursue.”

“Yes, yes. Leader is right,” said Director Jin quickly.

When the leader spoke, he had to listen. And to him, it had really been useful. The Internet often talked about how awesome this Master Lin was, but now, Director Jin felt that he wasn’t that great.

With a few words from the leader, Master Lin had been forced to retreat and was out of options.
