128: Chapter 128. A Different Kind of Special Treatment?!

Leaving that place of trouble, the Qin Family.

Jiang Yun originally wanted to escort his mother home directly.

To let her rest well and calm her nerves.

Unexpectedly.

Wang Xinmei gently held her son's hand, a gentle but firm smile on her face: "Yun, go take care of your own business. Mom is fine, just a bit startled. Just send me to the factory."

Jiang Yun was stunned.

He asked in confusion, "Mom, didn't I give you and Yunyun enough money? You can completely relax and enjoy your life at home. Why bother going to work so hard?"

Wang Xinmei looked at her son's concerned eyes.

A warm current surged in her heart.

She patted the back of Jiang Yun's hand.

Her tone was peaceful yet determined.

"Mom knows you're capable now and can support the family. But Mom is a Common person. I've been busy for most of my life; if I really stayed idle at home every day, I'd feel uncomfortable instead. Doing something familiar at the factory and chatting with my old sisters makes time pass faster and keeps my heart at peace."

She paused.

Her eyes gazed lovingly at her son's increasingly mature and resolute face, and she said softly: "You don't need to worry too much about me; I can take care of myself. As for you, the path you're walking is destined to be extraordinary, with a difficult road ahead and many dangers. Mom doesn't have much ability and can't help you with anything. I only ask that wherever you go and whatever you do, remember... stay safe."

Listening to his mother's simple but deeply affectionate words, Jiang Yun's heart trembled slightly, and a warm current spread through his body.

Having been an orphan in his previous life.

He had never experienced such pure and profound motherly love. In this life, this missing emotion was perfectly filled by the seemingly weak woman before him.

He took a deep breath.

Suppressing the emotion in his heart, he nodded: "Alright, Mom, I'll take you there. Don't worry, your son's life is very tough; I will definitely be safe."

Since his mother insisted, he no longer stopped her.

Now that the mayor had personally stepped in to warn and protect them, unless the Qin Family wanted to seek their own destruction, they would never dare to move against his mother and sister again. For now, their safety was assured.

The two chatted along the way.

Soon, they arrived outside the gates of the Textile Factory where his mother worked.

The crowd that had gathered to watch before had long since dispersed.

The factory area had returned to its usual order.

However.

Just as Jiang Yun accompanied his mother to the factory gate.

The sharp-eyed security guard recognized him at a glance!

Wasn't that the mother of that Prodigy Jiang Yun from just now?

The guard's face turned pale in an instant.

He almost couldn't hold onto the thermos in his hand.

He hurriedly shouted to his colleague.

"Quick! Go call the factory director and the supervisor! Jiang—Jiang Yun is back!"

After saying that, he squeezed out his most humble smile and trotted over to meet them, bowing and scraping, unable to even speak clearly: "Mr. Jiang—Jiang Yun! Why... why are you back? Please come in, please come in!"

This display left even Wang Xinmei stunned.

She looked at her son in confusion.

Then she looked at the guard, who was usually quite arrogant but was now as respectful as an elementary school student, feeling somewhat at a loss.

In less than a minute.

The Textile Factory's director and the supervisor of his mother's department.

The two of them ran over, their feet barely touching the ground.

Fine beads of sweat were on their foreheads.

"Young Master Jiang Yun! Your presence honors us, please forgive us for not welcoming you sooner!"

The director's face was filled with an enthusiastic, even slightly fawning smile as he reached out both hands from a distance.

The supervisor was even more nervous.

Rubbing his hands on the side, he repeatedly echoed the director.

Their attitude made Wang Xinmei even more bewildered.

She had worked in this factory for over ten years.

It was the first time she had seen the director and supervisor treat her—

No, treat her son so politely, one could even say... respectfully.

"You're too kind. I'm just sending my mother back to work."

Jiang Yun's expression was calm as he spoke indifferently.

"Oh! Sister Wang! You truly know how to raise a child, raising a dragon among men like Young Master Jiang Yun!"

The director immediately turned to Wang Xinmei, his tone as warm as if they were old friends of many years.

"Look at this, such a big matter and you didn't say a word in advance. We could have arranged a welcome!"

The supervisor also stepped forward, asking cautiously: "Sister Wang, which... which workshop are you in? What is your specific position? We were blind before and neglected you; please be magnanimous and forgive us!"

Wang Xinmei was a bit embarrassed by this sudden enthusiasm.

"I'm in Workshop Three, just a Common textile worker."

"Textile worker?!"

The director's voice suddenly rose, as if he had heard something unbelievable, and he slapped his thigh in mock distress.

"Nonsense! This is absolute nonsense! With Sister Wang's seniority, character, and... and vision, how could you be buried in a grassroots position? This is a major oversight in our factory's management!"

The supervisor was able to keep his job.

He was also a shrewd person.

Hearing the director's lead, he immediately understood.

He chimed in right away.

His tone was incredibly solemn: "The director is right! After recent secret investigation and evaluation by our management team, we unanimously agree that Comrade Wang Xinmei works diligently, without complaint, has solid skills, and more importantly, has noble character, is united with colleagues, and has high prestige among the workers! She is fully capable and qualified to hold a more important position!"

The director took over the conversation.

He announced righteously: "After an emergency consultation by our factory's leadership team, it has been formally decided to appoint Comrade Wang Xinmei as the factory's 'Special Consultant for Production Safety and Employee Care'! She will report directly to me! Mainly responsible for supervising safety production, caring for employees' lives, and mediating internal conflicts! As for salary and benefits... well, they will be paid at the level of a Deputy Factory Director!"

Wang Xinmei was completely dazed by this series of appointments.

She opened her mouth and said blankly: "Di—Director... this... I'm just a Common employee, what do I know about these things? My ability isn't enough... and... does our factory even have this position?"

"Ahem! Yes! Definitely! You can do it! Absolutely!"

The director's tone was categorical.

He didn't seem embarrassed about almost being caught in a lie.

His expression was as sincere as could be.

"Sister Wang, you're too modest! This position doesn't require high technical skills; the most important things are a sense of responsibility, fairness, and rapport! You have all of these! Looking at the whole factory, there's no one more suitable than you! Please don't refuse; this is for the better development of our factory in the future!"

The two spoke with straight faces.

But their expressions were unnatural.

They practically had the words "made up on the spot" written on their faces.

Seeing the director and supervisor's stance—that if she didn't agree, she was looking down on them and hindering the factory's development—and then seeing her smiling son, who looked as if everything was as it should be, Wang Xinmei finally understood.

All of these changes.

Stemmed from her son, who had become incredibly outstanding.

Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, both the pride of being a mother.

And a touch of sighing at reality.

Finally, it turned into a soft sigh as she nodded.

"Then... then I'll give it a try."

"Too good! Welcome, Consultant Wang!"

The director and supervisor immediately beamed with joy.

As if they had completed some great task.

Seeing that his mother's affairs were properly arranged—and in a way she could accept, where no one would dare to neglect her—Jiang Yun's heart also completely settled down.

His mother would certainly have no problems in the factory in the future.

He gave his mother a slight smile: "Mom, then work with peace of mind. I'll head back first."

"Alright, go take care of your business, don't worry about me."

Wang Xinmei looked at her son.

Her eyes were full of gratification and encouragement.

Jiang Yun then looked at the director and supervisor.

Expressing his thanks.

"Thank you both for taking care of my mother! If there's anything you need in the future, I will certainly do what I can."

Hearing this, the director smiled sincerely: "You're too kind! You're too kind! For Mr. Jiang Yun's mother to be employed in our factory simply makes our factory shine with reflected glory! We can't thank you enough."

Jiang Yun smiled and didn't say much more.

He knew very well.

The other party only placed such importance on his mother because of his current status.

Therefore, he had to become even stronger.

To ensure his mother would never be looked down upon.

Or bullied!

Afterward, Jiang Yun didn't stay any longer.

He took his leave.

His mother and the two factory leaders watched Jiang Yun's tall and straight figure walk away.

The director and supervisor breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, they felt lucky.

This could be considered establishing a slight connection with such a future big shot!

They had gained a lot of goodwill.

After all, no one knew what the future would hold.

Perhaps this small favor today.

Would bring massive returns in the future?

Being on good terms with a Prodigy Genius like Jiang Yun.

Definitely had no downsides!

...Meanwhile.

At the same time Jiang Yun sent his mother back to work at the Textile Factory.

The news of him challenging everyone in the Qin Family alone.

Killing several Silver Rank Elders in succession.

And even more so, in front of everyone, powerfully slaying Qin Hu of Gold Rank Three and Qin Long of Gold Rank Six, finally making a Breakthrough in the heat of battle to become a Gold Rank Beast Tamer and forcing the Qin Family Old Master to personally back down.

Like a hurricane sweeping through the city.

It spread to every corner of C City with astonishing speed!

A sixteen years old Gold Rank Beast Tamer!

Slaying High-tier Gold Rank with a Silver Rank status!

With heaven-defying combat power, forcing back the Qin Family Old Ancestor!

Each of the data entries was enough to ignite heated discussions throughout the city!

In the streets, alleys, tea houses, and wine shops of C City.

Everyone was discussing the same name.

Jiang Yun!

"Have you heard? That Jiang Yun from Qingquan No. 1 Middle School turned the Qin Family upside down!"

"More than that! He practically stepped on the Qin Family's face to reach the top! Killing two Gold Rank big shots in a row—my god, is he really sixteen years old?"

"Silver Rank slaying Gold Rank, and across so many tiers... this combat power is simply unheard of! I'm afraid a True Dragon is really going to emerge from our C City!"

"In the future of C City, who among the younger generation would dare to compete with him? No, I'm afraid even the older generation will have to be extremely polite when they see him!"

"The Qin Family really fell into a ditch this time. They lost two pillars and don't even dare to retaliate. They've lost all face!"

Inside the Myriad Beast Pavilion.

Pavilion Master Chen Feng listened to his subordinate's report, and the expensive teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter, shattering into pieces, but he was completely unaware.

"Slaying Gold Rank... Breakthrough in battle..."

He muttered to himself.

His face was filled with extreme shock.

"I didn't expect such a Genius to exist in my C City?! This Jiang Yun's future achievements will definitely exceed imagination!"

Qingquan No. 1 Middle School.

Principals Office.

Principal listened to the report on the phone.

First, he stood up abruptly.

Then he slowly sat down.

A smile of immense gratification and delight broke out on his face.

"Good! Good boy! I knew it! I knew he was no ordinary person! Hahaha! My Qingquan No. 1 Middle School could actually nurture such a Qilin! This is simply the most dazzling Genius since our school's founding—no, in the entire C City for hundreds of years! No, with such talent, we can directly erect a statue for Jiang Yun at the school to inspire future students!"

The other two top middle schools.

Leiting High School and Panshi Middle School.

Principals Lei Lie and Pang Tong sighed in their respective school offices, filled with envy, jealousy, and a hint of helplessness.

They knew that from now on, the landscape of C City's younger generation would be completely rewritten because of Jiang Yun alone, and Qingquan No. 1 Middle School would stand at the top, unshakeable.

Su Family estate.

Su Chengtian stood by the window with his hands behind his back. Listening to the butler's report, his eyes flashed with sharp light, and his face showed uncontrollable admiration and decisiveness.

"A sixteen years old Gold Rank Beast Tamer... at Silver Rank, his combat power was already comparable to Mid-tier Gold Rank... this boy already has the momentum of a hidden dragon emerging from the abyss!" He turned abruptly and ordered the butler.

"Go prepare immediately! At my birthday banquet tomorrow, I will publicly announce the betrothal of my daughter Qingxue to Jiang Yun! Such a fine son-in-law must not be missed! We must bind him firmly before he truly takes flight!"

Xiao Family.

Inside the Xiao Family courtyard.

After Xiao Zhan, the Xiao Family Old Master, learned the news, he was silent for a long time. Finally, he let out a long breath, his face full of relief and lingering fear.

"Instantly killing several Silver Rank Elders... slaying two Gold Rank experts in a row... and even making a Breakthrough to Gold Rank after the battle, becoming the youngest Gold Rank Beast Tamer in C City's history..."

"Vindictive..."

"Fortunately, I resolved the grievances of Xiao Ling and Xiao Hong with Jiang Yun in time... If my Xiao Family had handled it even slightly carelessly, the Qin Family's fate today would likely be the premonition for my Xiao Family..."

Thinking of this.

He immediately said solemnly to Xiao Ling below: "Pass down my order: from now on, anyone in the Xiao Family who sees Jiang Yun must treat him as they treat me! There must not be the slightest offense! This boy... repays every grudge and every kindness. Since our Xiao Family has resolved the grudge, we must find ways to befriend him!"

Xiao Ling below was already shivering with fear.

He hadn't expected.

That Jiang Yun, who was at the same level as him about a month ago.

Had now become an existence that even his great-grandfather had to be wary of... a Gold Rank Beast Tamer... it was unimaginable.

While he had only just promoted to Black Iron Sixth Tier.

The gap was too vast... in front of the current Jiang Yun, he seemed so tiny.

Like an ant... he only felt a chill down his spine.

His soul was almost scared out of him... he was glad he hadn't done anything too extreme back then.

He hadn't harmed Jiang Yun's family.

He was glad his great-grandfather had long-term vision... C City's sky.

Because of the sudden emergence of a youth.

Was likely going to change completely.

And Jiang Yun, who was at the center of the storm.

Was currently back home safely, preparing to carefully investigate what powerful new skills Little Fire had obtained after promoting to Gold Rank...
