A middle-aged man in his forties stepped out of the car. He glanced at Su Datou and then at the villagers.
"What are you doing here?"
Two bodyguards stood beside him, built strong and wearing black suits and sunglasses. They looked like they knew how to fight.
With Boss Sun, wearing a thick gold chain and having a round face and big ears, he looked like a typical gang boss.
The scene immediately intimidated the villagers.
Lin Fan stepped forward himself. "Are you the boss of this factory?"
"I am, and who the hell are you?"
Boss Sun's expression was unfriendly, and he exuded a ruthless aura.
Lin Fan was unfazed. "My name is Lin Fan, and I'm here to tear down your factory today."
"Hmph!"
Boss Sun snorted. "What big talk! You want to tear down my factory just like that? Do you think you're the Emperor of Heaven?"
"Let me tell you, you're interfering with my legitimate business. Get out, all of you!"
Boss Sun indeed had an imposing presence. Unlike when Su Datou tried to talk, many villagers dared to talk back to him.
After he arrived, the villagers didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Only Lin Fan paid him no mind.
"If we just leave when you tell us to, won't we lose face?"
Seeing Lin Fan's stubborn attitude, Boss Sun said menacingly, "Lin Fan, is it? What kind of dog name is that to dare be so arrogant in front of me? I think you haven't had a good beating from the underworld!"
The two bodyguards simultaneously advanced towards Lin Fan.
Lin Fan wasn't scared. Instead, he was overjoyed.
He had been worried that if this Boss Sun called the authorities, they might say he had no right to intervene, and then he would be helpless.
But if the other party resorted to violence, the situation would be different.
Qin Yuyan grabbed Lin Fan's arm and whispered, "You stall them, I'll call the police right away."
Lin Fan shook his head. "No need. Watch me teach them a lesson."
Boss Sun was furious. "Where did this stupid brat come from? Beat him up!"
The two bodyguards immediately charged.
Even now, he couldn't count on the villagers. Not a single one dared to help.
Clearly, they had more people, but they were terrified.
It was like a flock of sheep encountering a wolf, just waiting to be bitten to death, not knowing how to fight back.
The two bodyguards rushed forward, trying to grab Lin Fan's arms.
Bang!
Lin Fan lifted his leg and kicked the left bodyguard in the stomach.
The bodyguard hadn't even reacted before he was sent flying five or six meters away, crashing heavily to the ground, unable to get up.
Everyone around was stunned.
They couldn't understand how Lin Fan, with his small stature, could send a burly man flying.
The other bodyguard was astonished, standing there in a daze.
Only then did Boss Sun realize he had run into a tough opponent and that resolving the situation today would be difficult.
"Good! Good! Good! You're Lin Fan, right? Just you wait for me!"
After uttering a threat, Boss Sun got into his car and fled.
"???"
Lin Fan was truly surprised that this man, who spoke with the most ferocious attitude, acted in the most cowardly way and simply ran away.
"Little Fan, what does he mean by that?" Qin Yuyan asked, frowning.
"I don't know," Lin Fan replied.
Su Datou interjected, "Just wait. After you've angered Boss Sun, you'll have plenty to deal with!"
"You're getting cocky. We haven't settled with you yet!"
With Lin Fan's backing, the villagers finally mustered their courage and rushed at Su Datou, punching and kicking him.
Soon, Su Datou's face was beaten into a pig's head, and he was covered in bruises. He looked utterly miserable!

The next day, in a restaurant in the city, Boss Sun was hosting a group of thugs. Among them was a familiar face, Li Erhu.
Boss Sun slowly said, "According to you, this Lin Fan is incredibly strong, and my brothers are no match for him?"
Li Erhu smiled and waved his hand. "How many can one person fight? Ten at most. As long as we bring more people, we'll definitely be able to subdue him!"
His flattery was well-received and directly hit Boss Sun's soft spot.
"You really know how to talk. I won't beat around the bush. These brothers of mine have been with me for over ten years."
"Back then, no one dared to mess with us in this area. Later, due to the crackdown, we went into the factory business, but we haven't forgotten our old ways."
"This time, you've provided me with information about Lin Fan, which is a great service. Follow me from now on!"
"Okay!" Li Erhu nodded in agreement. Following Boss Sun, he was sure to live a life of luxury and comfort!

Meanwhile, Lin Fan was treating patients at his medical clinic.
The sound of a car approached from outside and stopped with a screech.
A young man in a designer suit stepped out of the car.
As soon as he got out, he frowned and scanned his surroundings.
"What kind of dump is this place?"
When he looked at the medical clinic and saw a familiar figure through the glass, he couldn't help but show a brilliant smile. "It's here after all!"
He adjusted his clothes and walked into the clinic with his head held high.
"Are you here for treatment, sir?" Lin Fan asked casually.
The young man didn't even look at Lin Fan and walked directly towards Song Mengling.
"Mengling, you made me search so hard! I sent you messages, why didn't you reply?"
He had a playful smile and a hint of obsequiousness.
Song Mengling's face was full of distress.
She recognized this young man. He was a young master from the Lin family in the city, Lin Lingfeng.
He was also one of her suitors, and the one she found most annoying.
When Song Mengling was still at the hospital, this person would visit her every few days.
She thought that by coming to this small mountain village, she could finally get rid of Lin Lingfeng, but he had found her again.
"Mengling, watch me do a magic trick for you!"
Lin Lingfeng waved his hands and snapped his fingers. With a swoosh, he produced a bouquet of roses from somewhere.
Lin Fan saw clearly that the roses were hidden in his sleeve beforehand.
However, he didn't expose him, as it wasn't his place to interfere in such matters.
Lin Fang was amazed. "Wow! That's so magical! How did you do that?"
Song Mengling, however, was not interested at all, not even glancing at them.
With someone appreciating his act, Lin Lingfeng was naturally pleased, but the atmosphere was awkward.
"What do you think? Do you like it? This is for you."
Lin Lingfeng handed the bouquet of roses to Song Mengling.
Song Mengling did not reach out to take them and said coldly, "I've told you many times, I don't like you. Please stop bothering me."
"Take your flowers and leave quickly!"
She directly asked him to leave.
The smile on Lin Lingfeng's face instantly froze. "Mengling, our families are of similar standing, and our parents have a good relationship. We are truly a perfect match!"
"Look at me, my company is operating normally, and it's expected to make several million in profit this year!"
"I'm also good-looking. From any perspective, I'm a high-quality man!"
"I've also been very devoted to you, pursuing you for several years. Can you give me a chance?"
