You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

When Lin Chen calmly emerged from the ventilation duct carrying the bomb that had been completely "physically disabled," the entire subway platform fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone seemed to be frozen in place, staring blankly at him.

The heavily armed special police officers, the anxious leaders, and Su Jianguo watching everything through the monitor in the command vehicle—everyone's face was filled with indescribable shock and disbelief.

Quiet.

A deathly silence.

The next second, someone started it, and thunderous applause and cheers erupted like a landslide and a tsunami!

"Success! It's demolished!!"

"My God! He actually did it!"

"That's incredible! This is godlike!"

All the SWAT team members looked at Lin Chen with eyes full of fanatical worship.

They spontaneously put away their weapons and gave Lin Chen the most standard and solemn salute!

Su Qingge could no longer suppress her emotions.

She rushed forward and, to everyone's astonishment, hugged Lin Chen tightly, like a fledgling returning to its nest.

"You bastard! You scared me to death! Do you have no idea how worried I was!"

Her voice was choked with sobs, and hot tears soaked Lin Chen's shoulder.

But her arms were wrapped tightly around him, as if she wanted to meld him into her body and never let go.

Lin Chen felt a warmth in his heart as he felt the woman's chest heaving and her body trembling slightly in his arms. He raised his hand and gently patted her back.

"Alright, alright, it's not a big deal. There are so many people watching, be mindful of your behavior."

On the other side of the crowd, Zhao Jiangong crawled out of the ventilation duct, covered in dust and dirt.

He took off his helmet, and his face, which was always filled with arrogance, was now filled with shame, confusion, and the paleness of someone who had survived a disaster.

He looked at Lin Chen, who was surrounded by people and enjoying the treatment of a hero. He looked at the young man he had scorned, who had created a miracle in a way that he could not even imagine.

He felt a burning pain in his face, as if he had been slapped hundreds of times by an invisible hand.

His proud theories and unwavering system were utterly crushed in the face of Lin Chen's unreasonable and violent personal abilities.

He didn't even have the courage to look up at Lin Chen. He silently lowered his head, like a defeated rooster, and slunk into a corner of the crowd.

Inside the command vehicle, Su Jianguo stared intently at the composed figure on the monitor screen, his heart filled with a profound sense of shock.

He finally understood why his proud and arrogant niece, who looked down on everyone, would follow this young man so devotedly.

He finally understood why a behemoth like the Chu family of the capital would be willing to swallow such a huge loss and suffer in silence at the hands of this young man.

A prodigy?

This guy is not a genius at all!

This is nothing but a monster in human skin!

A bug-level existence that cannot be measured by common sense or systems!

Su Jianguo took a deep breath, opened the car door, and strode towards Lin Chen.

He pushed through the crowd in front of him and walked up to Lin Chen amidst the astonished gazes of everyone, including Su Qingge.

Then, this powerful figure, who held absolute authority throughout East China, actually bowed deeply and solemnly to Lin Chen, a young man who was nominally just an unofficial advisor.

"Lin Chen".

For the first time, Su Jianguo's voice carried a hint of heartfelt admiration and apology.

"I apologize to you for my previous ignorance and arrogance."

"I take back everything I said before. You weren't lucky; you're a true expert. You not only saved this city, but you also taught this old fogey a real lesson."

He raised his head, looking intently at Lin Chen, his eyes no longer showing any contempt, but only respect for a true strongman.

"Qingge has better taste than me."

"From this moment forward, the 'Prophet' case task force is under your full command! All the personnel and equipment I brought are at your disposal! If you require anything, I, Su Jianguo, will do my utmost, even if it means losing face!"

These words, spoken with resounding force, once again plunged the entire audience into shock.

At the back of the crowd, Li Mingyu, who had just finished treating his wounds at the hospital and then shamelessly came to the scene hoping to see Lin Chen make a fool of himself, saw this scene and his eyes turned red with jealousy. His face was twisted beyond recognition with envy, jealousy and hatred.

He originally thought that the arrival of Uncle Su was the beginning of suppressing Lin Chen, a mountain of power, and an opportunity for Li Mingyu to turn the tables.

But he never dreamed that Lin Chen would subdue this mountain from the capital in less than half a day!

Faced with Su Jianguo's complete 180-degree turn, Lin Chen simply raised an eyebrow.

"Minister Su, you flatter me."

He gently pushed Su Qingge away from his embrace, his lazy expression returning to normal.

"I don't like trouble. I don't want to give orders; I just want absolute authority to act."

"no problem!"

Su Jianguo agreed without hesitation.

He knew that for someone like Lin Chen, any form of restraint was an insult.

Giving him the greatest degree of freedom is the greatest respect you can show him.
