After the two prosecutors answered the phone, the Attorney General unleashed a torrent of angry curses.
The prosecutor holding the phone turned pale and nodded repeatedly as he stammered apologies to the person on the other end.
This exchange went on for about ten minutes before the man finally hung up, his expression sour and agitated.
He walked straight up to Su Ming-Yu and bowed deeply, his voice full of sincerity as he apologized.
"I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Su. It was all our fault earlier. I hope you can forgive us."
Su Ming-Yu, hearing this, let a faint smile play at the corners of his lips. He gently patted the man's shoulder.
"It's all right. Those who don't know shouldn't be blamed. I regret that such a situation arose, but I trust that the prosecution will handle the matter properly. Of course, if you need my cooperation, I'll give it to you in full."
Upon hearing Su Ming-Yu's words, the surrounding crowd fell silent, moved by his calm and gracious demeanor.
However, the two prosecutors couldn't help but feel bitter.
In their minds, they thought, "If you're so cooperative, why have we been scolded so badly just now?
But they did not dare to express their frustration. In front of Su Ming-Yu, they maintained their respectful composure.
"Understood, Mr. Su. If necessary, we'll contact you for further inquiries," one of them said, bowing again.
After that, the two prosecutors left, looking like disgraced dogs with their tails between their legs.
Gi-Sang stood nearby and watched the whole scene. He marveled at how Su Ming-Yu had sent those arrogant prosecutors packing with just a phone call. Moreover, they had left with such respect for Su Ming-Yu.
At that moment, Gi-Sang felt a flicker of curiosity about Su Ming-Yu's true identity. He decided to remain respectful in the future and silently vowed to never cross his mysterious boss.
Meanwhile, Cha Joo-wan, who was standing nearby, felt an uneasiness growing within him.
The prosecutors that the vice president of Space Group had specially arranged to support him were so easily dismissed. A flicker of surprise crossed his face as he stared at Su Ming-Yu.
The investigation report on Su Ming-Yu within the group clearly stated that he had no significant background. However, today's events proved otherwise.
Cha Joo-wan frowned, his expression becoming grim.
Realizing that he had no reason to stay, and frustrated for the first time in weeks, he quietly left the scene.

As Cha Joo-wan walked away, a familiar Ding echoed in Su Ming-Yu's mind.
[System Notification]
- Congratulations, host, for defeating Cha Joo-wan!
- Protagonist's aura captured: 5%.
- Your aura increased: 1%.
Su Ming-Yu's eyes lit up as he absorbed the system's message.
He remembered that when he faced JunWoo earlier, capturing 10% of his aura would only increase his own aura by 1%. But now, capturing only 5% of Cha Joo-wan resulted in the same gain.
Obviously, Su Ming-Yu thought, Cha Joo-wan is more difficult to deal with. The benefits of targeting him will be greater.
Smiling coldly, he cast a meaningful glance at Cha Joo-wan's retreating back.
"If this guy likes to play dirty so much, maybe I should send him to Myanmar. Let's see how he gets along with the 'Third Brothers' there," Su Ming-Yu mused, his eyes gleaming with amusement.
Not far away, a tall, striking woman dressed in an elegant ensemble caught Su Ming-Yu's attention.
She wore a sleeveless black vest paired with a fitted skirt that accentuated her slender legs, and high-heeled black patent leather stilettos with red soles.
The woman's playful eyes lingered on Su Ming-Yu as she studied him with interest.
"Young, rich and bold," she murmured to herself, a mischievous smile forming on her lips. "This man is worth pursuing."
Feeling someone's gaze, Su Ming-Yu turned his head to meet the woman's.
Recognizing her instantly, his lips curled into a knowing smile.
Her name was Mijung Kim - a charming and calculating woman who worked for the Universe Group.
Despite her reputation as a femme fatale, her allure was undeniable.
Mijung Kim winked at Su Ming-Yu from afar. Seeing their subtle exchange, Gi-Sang couldn't help but cough slightly, feeling a mixture of admiration and envy.
"Of course, the boss is the boss," Gi-Sang thought. "No matter where he goes, women flock to him like moths to a flame. Comparing yourself to him is a sure way to lose confidence."
Mijung Kim gave Su Ming-Yu a seductive smile before turning and slipping gracefully into a sleek car.
As the vehicle drove away, she left with Su Ming-Yu firmly etched in her mind.
