"Hmph, what a lousy card is this?"

Brother Liu couldn't care less about Lin Hai's action and casually glanced down.

With just one look, the card seemed to freeze forever in his eyes, rendering him immobile, seemingly... stunned.

The receptionist was utterly puzzled, as Brother Liu appeared fixated on the card thrown by that poor boy.

Driven by curiosity, she also looked down.

Upon seeing the finely crafted purple card, her pupils rapidly contracted. She suddenly raised her head, looking at Lin Hai in disbelief.

The middle-aged woman with irregular menstruation also curiously looked at the card.

Due to vision issues from her condition and poor lighting in the room, she stared for several seconds, thinking she'd seen this card somewhere before.

Suddenly, Sister Wang seemed struck by lightning, staring hard at the card, expressing deep shock: "This can't be!"

"A worldwide... limited edition top purple diamond membership card..."

"Only six exist globally..."

Brother Liu's whole body shook uncontrollably, his voice quivering with every word.

Upon hearing the card's rarity, Sister Wang and the receptionist's disbelief turned into a storm of amazement; they could no longer remain calm.

"How... how can you have such a precious card?"

Brother Liu's eyes widened to the point of bursting.

"The reason? Mainly my charisma," Lin Hai replied playfully.

The receptionist stared fixedly at the purple card, which was embedded with rare purple diamonds, especially the words "Linya," deeply engraving themselves into her mind.

The dazzling purple diamonds almost blinded them.

She recalled when she first joined, the manager said that encountering a top-tier card meant going to extreme lengths to please the customer.

And that card was indeed the top purple diamond membership card.

During her tenure, she always looked forward to seeing a super customer with a purple diamond card.

Unexpectedly, she saw one today.

Yet she couldn't accept this scenario.

"Who... who are you really... how can you possibly have... you're just a regular poor..."

He couldn't say the last word, nor did he dare to.

The person before him, though dressed plainly and decidedly unrefined, appeared surrounded by an unspeakable aura due to the possession of this purple card.

"Who am I? Heh."

"You're not qualified to know."

Lin Hai's face fell.

Brother Liu, the receptionist, and that middle-aged woman all felt their hearts jolt.

"What... what do you want?"

Manager Liu's forehead dripped with sweat.

"I don't want anything."

Lin Hai took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hey? Brother Lin, why are you calling me at this time?" A lazy voice came through the phone, mixed with the soft sobbing of women.

"Come to sales point number one, the staff here disrespected me."

"What? Damn!"

The person on the phone suddenly became alert.

"Brother Lin, wait for me, I'm on my way."

He hung up the phone.

"Who... who did you call?" the middle-aged woman asked, trembling. The purple card had caused a profound psychological impact on her.

"It's none of your business."

Lin Hai's words left the middle-aged woman speechless.

Meanwhile, Manager Liu and the receptionist felt tense, their instincts telling them that the person Lin Hai called had an extraordinary identity.

A bad feeling made the two extremely uncomfortable.

Ten minutes later.

A limited edition Rolls-Royce stopped at sales point number one.

Zhuge Jianguo rushed out of the car.

"Damn it, I'm Zhuge Jianguo, who dares to disrespect my big brother?"

The strong voice carried a hint of anger.

With those words, the entire room fell silent.

"Zhu..." The receptionist's eyes rolled, almost fainting out of shock.

Manager Liu had long lost his earlier bravado and arrogance, shaking violently.

Sister Wang was almost scared enough for her irregular menstruation to correct itself.

As for the security guard who had just been kicked by Lin Hai and had awoken, he fainted again from shock.

"Heh, let's settle the score now."

"You..."

Manager Liu looked at Lin Hai in terror.

"You guys dare to disrespect my big brother?" Zhuge Jianguo looked at the receptionist and others with displeasure.

Sweat instantly gushed from the foreheads of the three.

He was Yanjing's richest young man, not only wealthy but terrifyingly well-connected.

Even ordinary people, even those from various second-generation backgrounds, would treat him politely without daring to offend him.

A renowned name, alongside Zhuge Jianguo's prominence, sat like a massive stone on the hearts of the three, making it difficult to breathe.

"What?!"

Brother Liu stared wide-eyed at Lin Hai.

The receptionist couldn't believe that someone dressed so plainly turned out to be the brother of Yanjing's richest young man—this identity was astonishing.

The Goddess Zi standing at the back of the crowd was also stunned.

Although she knew Lin Hai seemed to have a good relationship with Zhuge Jianguo, she never imagined Mr. Lin could have Zhuge Jianguo calling him 'big brother'.

Mind you, being good friends and being brothers carry a huge distinction.

"I want to know why the already limited beauty care medicine ended up with an ordinary member? Hmm?" Lin Hai's voice was authoritative.

Ouyang Xiaoya's eyes flashed.

It was the first time she'd seen Lin Hai display the qualities of a true upper management member.

She thought Lin Hai had great potential to become an excellent company manager, and decided she'd need to work harder to cultivate him well.

"Didn't you say earlier that I wasn't qualified to ask about this?"

"Jianguo, tell them who I am."

Lin Hai said.

"Listen up, you know the company's name, right? Linya Pharmaceutical, named after my brother's surname and Sister Ouyang's name."

"My brother is the chairman of Linya Pharmaceutical!"

Zhuge Jianguo pointed at Lin Hai, telling the three.

With a "thud," the previously arrogant Manager Liu's legs weakened, dropping him to his knees in front of Lin Hai.

The receptionist wiped the sweat continually forming on her forehead, her gaze utterly chaotic.

That previously arrogant and disdainful Sister Wang, who had looked down upon Lin Hai, never expected the person before her was actually the true hidden boss behind Linya Pharmaceutical!

As a mere ordinary member, she was nothing before him.

Moreover, she had earlier questioned Lin Hai's lack of authority with the attitude and tone of a Linya Pharmaceutical member.

Upon realizing this, Sister Wang's face burned painfully; with Lin Hai exposing his identity, it was like a slap across her face, leaving it stinging.

The surrounding security guards now looked at Lin Hai with eyes full of reverence.

Feeling the frozen atmosphere around him, Lin Hai's mind seemed to echo with a prompt: "Achievement Unlocked—Master of Flaunting."
