The bald man frowned deeply, not knowing what to do. Just then, someone came in from outside.

Zhang Yuefei focused his eyes and saw that he knew this person. It seemed to be the one who had been standing behind their big boss earlier, either a lawyer or a secretary.

The man frowned, stared at the workers, and asked, "What the hell is going on with you guys? How did it get this messy? Why so much noise?"

The lawyer's face looked very ugly, because his big boss was sleeping just now and had been woken up by the noise.

The big boss couldn't exactly come over himself to ask about it, so he sent this lawyer to find out what was going on and why there was such a racket.

The bald man was a little scared and worried; after all, it wasn't easy to land such a high-paying job.

He hurriedly said to the lawyer, "It's one of my little laborers. That bastard is clumsy as hell—he just fell from upstairs. Looks like his leg is broken. We really don't know what to do."

The lawyer gave Zhang Yuefei a cold sweep of his eyes, then said, "Then do it like this: give him some money and let him get treatment himself. Since his leg is busted, he's useless here anyway."

"This is a very simple matter, no need to make such a fuss. If you're worried it's not enough, I'll have Finance give you the money. No need to be so stingy."

The lawyer said to the bald man with open contempt.

He was born into a high circle, and the deals he handled were all in the millions, so he looked down on this kind of scene where people at the bottom fought over a few hundred yuan.

The bald man hurriedly nodded and bowed, saying a few words of thanks to the lawyer.

Then he took five or six hundred yuan out of his wallet and handed it to Zhang Yuefei.

"You're lucky, kid, to run into such a kindhearted guy like me, even letting you go treat yourself."

"Grab a cab and get out of here. Go into the city and take good care of that leg. Your job here is settled as of now."

Seeing the five hundred yuan, Zhang Yuefei frowned. He immediately said, "Boss, this five hundred is just my basic wage. My leg's broken now, that counts as a work injury, right? That gentleman just said you should give me a bit more. This isn't enough."

Hearing this, the bald man let out a cold laugh. He grabbed Zhang Yuefei by the collar and roared, "Kid, don't push your luck. Look at yourself—still want money from me? You think you deserve it?"

"Don't take yourself too seriously. I pay you at all, give you your basic wage, don't dock your pay—that already makes me good to you."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuefei sneered inwardly. This bastard really thinks I'm an idiot?

But then he thought about how he could play dumb and bite back later, so he quickly put on a cowardly look and said, "So that's how it is, I get it, I get it. You've got it hard too, sir. I'll leave now and hurry to get my leg treated."

Zhang Yuefei felt that showing weakness now was beneficial; if he acted more submissive, they would be less suspicious of him. They'd just think he was a fool, which would make it easier for him to play the pig to eat the tiger later.

Watching the bald man and the others leave, Zhang Yuefei sneered in his heart. "Old bastard, don't think I'm some idiot. I see everything crystal clear. You're the real idiots here."

"Once I find Mr. Lin Beichen, I'll have all of you chopped into pieces, never to find peace even in death."

Zhang Yuefei let out a few cold laughs, picked up a cane, and slowly walked out. He hailed a cab and headed toward the city.

At this time, Lin Beichen was together with Huo Ziyan, Huo Sizun, and Luo Xianping, the four of them discussing their next move.

Luo Xianping had more or less figured out the whereabouts of those people for Lin Beichen, but he advised Lin Beichen not to act rashly.

"We don't even know how many there are. If they have a lot of people and we just rush in like this, it might cause trouble instead."

Luo Xianping said this directly to Lin Beichen. If he'd said this to anyone else, it could be called the words of a loyal old minister—steady and prudent.

But when Lin Beichen heard this, he just let out a cold "heh."

"Are you sure that's how it is? Or is it that you don't have enough confidence in my abilities?"

Lin Beichen spoke lightly, but that one sentence carried an indescribable pressure and force. Luo Xianping shivered all over, then quickly said to Lin Beichen:

"If it were anyone else, maybe they wouldn't be up to it. But since you've said so, Mr. Lin Beichen, what else can I say? I'll just follow your orders."

Luo Xianping hurried to take a stand, no longer hesitating.

Hearing this, Lin Beichen finally nodded.

"Right. If you're working with me, then just trust one thing: my judgment doesn't miss. No need to treat the enemy like they're such a big deal."

Lin Beichen spoke with full-on bravado:

"In this city, there's no one born yet who can suppress me. If I can get tripped up by some small-time opponents in a place like this, how the hell would I have made it this far?"

His pride was written all over his face, his contempt for those enemies obvious.

Luo Xianping, Huo Sizun and the others all nodded. They had nothing to say to that. After all, Lin Beichen's confidence was backed by hard strength.

At this moment, Huo Ziyan looked at Lin Beichen, then asked in a soft voice:

"So, Mr. Lin Beichen, what do you plan to do next? Are we heading over right now?"

"That's right. If you don't enter the tiger's den, how do you catch Hu Zi? We're going to cut through the mess with a sharp blade and hit them with a blitzkrieg."

"Huo Ziyan, you stay here. You're a girl after all; this kind of situation isn't really suitable for you."

Lin Beichen made a brief arrangement, then said to the others:

"The rest of you come with me. We're going to storm that dragon's pool and tiger's den together. If you've got elite men under you, bring every one you can."

"I don't buy that they're all that capable, and I'm sure as hell not afraid of them."

Lin Beichen said with confident boldness. Hearing this, everyone cupped their hands, and quite a few said to him:

"Since Mr. Lin Beichen is this sure of himself, what do we have to be afraid of? We'll do as you say."

Luo Xianping immediately started thinking. After all, he had just defected to Lin Beichen and wanted to earn some military merit, so later when credit was divided, no one would have any objections.

So Luo Xianping said to Lin Beichen, with a very sincere attitude:

"Mr. Lin Beichen, this is my first time taking part in your team's operation. Put me at the very front. I want to be the vanguard this time and let those people see what happens when they mess with us."

"Let me handle them in person. I've got ways to deal with them, and I'm not afraid of anything."

Luo Xianping said boldly. Lin Beichen patted him on the shoulder in encouragement.

"Why don't we go to Huo Group together?"

At this moment, Lin Beichen made this suggestion. Hearing it, the people around him all voiced their agreement.

When they arrived at the entrance of Huo Group, they were stopped by the security guards outside.

Faced with this, Huo Sizun wore a puzzled look.

"What's going on? Why am I being kept out?"

He thought this as he strode quickly up to the security guards and asked in a harsh tone:

"What's the meaning of this? You really don't know who I am? Why are you blocking me outside?"

Hearing Huo Sizun, the two security guards glanced at each other, then shook their heads, indicating they didn't recognize him.

Faced with this, Huo Sizun instantly got angry and asked:

"When did you two start working here?"

Confronted with his question, the two guards froze for a second, because they couldn't figure out why he would ask something like that.

"We just started today, what about it? If you've got a problem with us, you can file a complaint with management."

One of the security guards said in a very serious tone.
