The security team responsible for city security was in a bind. Seeing Lin Wanxing leading dozens of refugees to move supplies, the security captain's face turned green. Supplies were in short supply, so how could they just ask for them?
Looking at the security team blocking her way, Lin Wanxing felt somewhat resentful.
"Why can't we distribute supplies? What you're doing is wrong!"
The security captain said helplessly, "Miss Lin, there are regulations on the allocation of supplies now. Taking things randomly will cause problems."
"What do you mean by 'problem'?" Lin Wanxing said with her hands on her hips and a righteous expression. "These are living, breathing people. They are displaced and homeless. You withhold supplies just because of so-called regulations. What's the difference between that and refusing to help someone in distress?"
Her choice of words made the security captain frown, and he patiently explained, "Miss Lin, we also sympathize with their plight, but resources are limited right now. Everyone has a fixed quota. If we give it to them now, then later..."
Lin Wanxing ignored her completely and continued her moral blackmail: "As a security force, you are supposed to protect the people, but instead you are making excuses to shirk your responsibilities. Is your duty to just watch these people go hungry after a disaster?"
The garrison captain looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, and a million curses ran through his mind. He hadn't had much contact with this third-generation official in the past and thought she was a pretty good person. But today, his idealized image of Lin Wanxing was shattered.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a refugee suddenly stepped out from the crowd. He tugged at Lin Wanxing's sleeve and whispered, "Girl, how about we just let it go? We don't really want that much..."
Lin Wanxing flung his hand away and shouted, "No! The supplies you promised must be delivered today!" Feeling she was losing face, she darted around, "As a security force, you're supposed to protect the people, not making excuses. If my grandfather knew how you were doing things, he definitely wouldn't let you get away with it!"
The captain paused for a moment, then nodded: "I know, Miss Lin... but..."
"I don't care, you have to get out of the way! I already agreed to their terms!"
The garrison captain knew he couldn't reason with this saintly woman, so he could only consult with the captain. But he heard Gu Heng sneer, "I am the captain now. You tell me, and I'll tell you, Wanxing's meaning is my meaning!"
Lin Wanxing gripped his hand tightly, and Gu Heng's resolve hardened.
After Lin Wanxing generously distributed a batch of supplies, the voice of the garrison captain finally came through the communicator.
Fang Zhiyi just smiled and said, "I can't help it. They're a good person, I can't be the bad one, can I?"
"What can I do? She keeps using her grandfather to pressure me! I'm just a lowly security captain, I can't afford to offend her!" The captain on the other end of the communicator was clearly anxious.
"Since you can't resist, just obey orders. They're a captain, and they're connected to the system. Who can't crush you?"
"Why should I... You don't know, now everyone thinks our security force is controlling the supplies and is stealing them!"
"You should think about it carefully. What would a third-generation heir like her want by coming all this way? Isn't it just to gain a reputation? Once her reputation is good, won't her grandfather thank you? And won't the Lin family remember your kindness?"
On the other end of the communicator, the security captain paused for a moment, then suddenly realized: "You mean, if I go along with her, I can benefit from her family's influence in the future?"
"Ahem, I didn't say anything."
"Don't say it, please don't say it."
Fang Zhiyi hummed a little tune as she hung up the communicator. If she wasn't mistaken, the original owner's rigid personality must have hindered Lin Wanxing's ideas many times, not only earning her complaints but also unintentionally making her the bad guy.
