Instantly, the expressions of the rotund Huang Kai, the Dog Head Military Advisor Zhou Zhengxu, and especially Young Master Zheng Zhengbin, turned utterly foul. Their eyes, narrowed to slits in extreme anger, trembled uncontrollably, and their gazes were filled with cold, twisted animosity toward Hua Ming.

"Gentlemen, please make way," Hua Ming said coldly. His words were like a spark, instantly igniting the powder keg in the hearts of Young Master Zheng and the others.

Since when were a deputy director of the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce and the son of a provincial deputy bureau chief so worthless!? How could a mere jewelry store owner dare to be so presumptuous and arrogant, acting so brazenly in front of them again and again, completely disregarding them!?

"Old bastard, are you fucking looking for death!? Let me tell you, if you really want to make an enemy of us, fine! We'll see who has the last laugh! A country bumpkin like you really thinks he's something, huh? Don't think you can use your connection with Jin Zhenglin as a shield! I'm telling you, in front of our Zheng Family, Jin Zhenglin is nothing!" Young Master Zheng Zhengbin's face contorted with fury as he pointed at Hua Ming's nose and cursed.

"That's right, you Old Rascal! Give you an inch and you take a mile! Damn it, let me tell you, Young Master Zheng has already called his dad. When Bureau Chief Zheng Changhong shows up in person, will even Deputy Mayor Jin Zhenglin dare to disrespect him? By then, a nobody like you will be nothing more than a pawn to be sacrificed. You really think you're something special? Pah!"

It wasn't just Young Master Zheng Zhengbin who was furious; the Dog Head Military Advisor Zhou Zhengxu and the pot-bellied Huang Kai were, too. Their expressions were filled with rage as they jumped up one by one, pointing at Hua Ming's nose and cursing.

Pah, who does he think he is!? So what if he fucking managed to scrape together some connection with Deputy Mayor Jin Zhenglin? He's still just a country bumpkin, what right does he have to be so arrogant?

"May I ask if you are Mr. Hua Ming, the owner of Jinnan Jewelry?" Just as Hua Ming's expression turned grim and he was about to storm off, a powerful, authoritative voice suddenly traveled in from outside the factory area. Instantly, the expressions of Hua Ming, Zheng Zhengbin, and the others turned cold as they whipped their heads around to look.

However, the sight that greeted them next made everyone freeze in shock and fear. Unseen until now, a dozen or so policemen had strode in from outside the factory. Among them was a tall, sturdy man with a square, chiseled face and an incredibly imposing demeanor, clearly their leader. It seemed he was the one who had just asked for Hua Ming.

"Y-You're Captain Gu?" When the rotund Huang Kai saw the rank insignias on the man's police uniform and got a clear look at his square, imposing face, his own expression changed drastically. His heart felt as if it had been seized by an iron grip. A moment later, his face turned deathly pale, and he began to sweat profusely.

Because this Captain Gu was no ordinary figure! He was the famously impartial and decisive lead investigator of the Public Security Bureau of Tongzhou City, the provincial capital! Even someone like him, an outsider to the public security system, had heard of the captain's great reputation and recognized his face. Most importantly, Captain Gu already held a deputy bureau-level rank. Why would a common case ever require his personal attention? On top of that, he had immediately asked for Hua Ming... The mere thought of the implications almost made Huang Kai's knees buckle, and beads of sweat poured relentlessly down his forehead.
