Zhang Mingfa was immediately angered by what Lin Yiqian had said.
As he gritted his teeth, he nodded. “Fine. You are not violating the law for being arrogant. We’ll wait for your father to be the judge of that. Let’s see if he’ll let you treat the former shareholders like us this way.”
Several old men began to voice their support for Zhang Mingfa.
They were acting as if they were much more senior than her as they criticized her for her behavior.
Lin Yiqian gave them the side-eye as she smiled to herself.
“Uncles, you’re all antiques now. Not shareholders,” she said.
“You…”
The faces of the old men turned red from anger.
They could barely speak from how offended they were by Lin Yiqian’s comment.
“Chief, you’ve arrived just in time. Your daughter is being disrespectful.”
Suddenly, a familiar man’s figure appeared at the door.
Lin Yiqian caught sight of him and immediately froze.
She was completely unaware that her hands were tightening around a stack of documents until they were nearly all crumpled.
Her gaze returned to the door as she loosened her grip on the documents.
Lin Tianwan was wearing a gray-colored shirt with matching gray tuxedo pants. He was dressed as if he were here to work.
Lin Yiqian looked him up and down before she squinted.
She could sense that the group of men were here not just to reacquire their shares in the company.
Lin Tianwan smiled as he nodded at Zhang Mingfa before shifting his gaze to Lin Yiqian.
However, as soon as their eyes met, he turned his gaze away as he greeted the other men, “You’re all here.”
“Why have you allowed your daughter to make a mess of this company?”
The group of men surrounded Lin Tianwan as they complained about Lin Yiqian.
Meanwhile, Lin Tianwan listened quietly to what they had to say.
“Little Yi is doing a pretty good job at managing the company.” He frowned, confused.
“Good?” Zhang Mingfa snorted as he stared at Lin Yiqian. “She’s arrogant and disrespectful. The company is only surviving because of the Gu family’s help. If it’s left to her to manage, it’ll all go south one day.”
The group of men was here for only one reason.
“It’s only a matter of time.” The other men chipped in to support Zhang Mingfa’s statement.
Lin Yiqian listened to them calmly.
However, Fang Heyang could not take it anymore. “Hey, old men. Did our Chief Lin ruin your company?”
‘What right do you have to express your concerns here?’ He rolled his eyes.
Then, he lifted his chin as he stared at Zhang Mingfa angrily.
Lin Yiqian shifted her gaze to Fang Heyang with a look of confusion on her face. Right then, he had completely revealed his gangster-like mannerism.
Why did she enjoy seeing it so much?
Meanwhile, Zhang Mingfa and the rest were stunned by Fang Heyang who had come out of nowhere.
“What are you?” He asked, pointing at Fang Heyang after staring at him for a few seconds.
“I’m a human. Not a thing.” Fang Heyang rolled his eyes as he chucked his hands into his pockets lazily.
“Which department are you from? Why are you here?” Lin Tianwan asked after scanning Fang Heyang up and down.
“Marketing,” Fang Heyang replied, formally.
“Go to work.” Lin Tianwan commanded with a serious tone.
He sounded very much like how a leader would.

After all, he was Lin Tian Wan, Lin Yiqian’s father. Fang Heyang shoulders relaxed as he calmed himself down.
When Zhang Mingfa saw that Lin Tianwan was exerting his dominance, he immediately played along. “Chief Lin, how could you hand the company over to her? She’s only been abroad for a few years. How could she possibly be capable?”
He gave Lin Yiqian the side-eye before continuing. “Moreover, everyone is talking about how Gu Nianshen wasn’t the one who helped her get the contract with Na Wa. There are different stories about how the deal was made and none of them are pleasant to hear about. I suggest you advise her on being more low-key and not fool around with men outside of her marriage. Otherwise, she might end up being kicked out of the Gu family and embarrassing our entire household.”
Hearing this, Fang Heyang raised his head and stared at Zhang Mingfa angrily.
By the time Zhang Mingfa realized that he was in danger, it was already too late.
Fang Heyang grabbed him by the collars. “Old man, do you want to be beaten up?”
Fang Heyang continued to stare at Zhang Mingfa as he raised his fist.
“What… What are you doing?” Zhang Mingfa’s face had turned pale.
“You’re an old man. What else can I do? Of course, I’ll hit you.” Fang Heyang’s grip tightened around Zhang Mingfa’s collars as he raised it upward.
“You… you dare to hit me?” Zhang Mingfa asked with a trembling voice.
“Call the cops. The young man is hitting a senior.” Someone shouted out.
Several people took their phones out.
Fang Heyang turned around and stared at each of them in turn. “I’ll hit anyone who has their phone out.”
His stare instilled fear in each of them as they all dropped their hands.
Even Lin Yiqian was a little surprised as she observed Fang Heyang’s actions.
‘He doesn’t just look like a gangster. He practically is one.’ Lin Yiqian reminded herself not to judge a book by its cover.
Fang Heyang’s gaze returned to Zhang Mingfa. “Apologize to our Chief Lin right away and I’ll consider letting you off the hook. Otherwise, I’m going to pluck out all your facial hair.”
As he spoke, Fang Heyang dragged Zhang Mingfa closer to Lin Yiqian.
He was forcing the old man to apologize to Lin Yiqian.
At his age, Zhang Mingfa was not willing to succumb to a young man’s threat as he stared at Fang Heyang without doing anything.
Fang Heyang raised his leg and was prepared to kick the old man’s knee.
“Okay… I’ll apologize.” Zhang Mingfa closed his eyes.
“Little Yi, I was wrong for saying those things. Please forgive me.”
Fang Heyang did not care whether the apology was genuine or not. All he wanted was for the old man to admit his fault.
Since he had already apologized, Lin Yiqian decided not to make things any more difficult for Zhang Mingfa. “You’re a good old man for recognizing your own mistakes.”
Fang Heyang was speechless.
As he frowned, he saw how serious Lin Yiqian seemed to be.
He could not believe how playful this woman was.
Unable to control his laughter, Fang Heyang chuckled as he shook his head before letting go of Zhang Mingfa.
Meanwhile, Zhang Mingfa panted as if he had just escaped from hell.
Although he was still upset about being forced to apologize, he decided to keep his mouth shut after peeking at Fang Heyang.
“If there’s nothing else, please leave. I’m quite busy,” Lin Yiqian announced.
As soon as Lin Yiqian spoke, Fang Heyang glanced at the group of old men, lazily.
They immediately fled for their lives.
