From Today On, Follow Me

Wang Chun berated the security guard. "Who the hell do you think you are, daring to criticize me?"

"Take a good look. He isn't President Ye anymore. He's just a stinking beggar!"

"So what if I insulted him?"

"He should be honored that I bothered!"

With that, Wang Chun looked at Ye Tian with contempt.

"Ye Tian, I really did admire you back then. You were so young, yet you were in charge of the Tiansheng Group. You were practically my idol."

"But just because I took a few thousand yuan in kickbacks, you actually scolded me in public and docked me a whole year's bonus!"

"A hundred thousand! That was a hundred thousand yuan! I wanted to kill you right then!"

Hatred filled Wang Chun's face as he stared at Ye Tian with a vicious expression and sneered.

"Now you're down and out like a dog. In my eyes, you're worth less than a fart."

"Don't say I'm ungrateful. You made an exception to hire me back then, so today I'll give you a chance too."

"Get on your knees, kowtow, and apologize, and I'll reward you with a bite to eat. How about it?"

The guard, standing nearby, immediately flew into a rage. He pointed at Wang Chun and said,

"Manager Wang, how can you call that human speech?"

"Even if things aren't going well for President Ye now, as his former subordinate, it's one thing not to help him."

"But how can you go and insult him?"

"You've gone too far!"

Wang Chun's eyes widened, and he cursed.

"How the fuck are you talking to me?"

"You stinking security guard, are you looking to die?"

As he spoke, Wang Chun raised his hand and swung at the guard again.

But this time, the guard caught him by the wrist and squeezed just a little, making Wang Chun howl in pain.

"Fuck! Let go! Let go of me!"

"Don't you fucking want this job anymore?"

The guard's face darkened, anger in his eyes as he said furiously,

"Wang Chun, listen up."

"A person needs a conscience. You can't forget your roots!"

"Back then, who at the company did President Ye ever treat badly? Why do you have to humiliate him?"

"Today, even if I lose my job, I'm going to slap you for President Ye."

Smack!

With that, the guard slapped Wang Chun to the ground, sending his glasses flying.

"Bastard, just wait until you're fired!"

Wang Chun scrambled to his feet and burst into furious curses.

He turned and stormed back into the company to demand an explanation from the administration department.

After hitting Wang Chun, the guard let out a long breath. He smiled at Ye Tian and said heartily,

"President Ye, don't take it to heart."

"What place doesn't have a few ungrateful little people?"

"I hit Wang Chun, so I'm definitely going to lose my job."

"I don't fucking want it anymore anyway. Come on, I'll buy you a drink!"

As he spoke, the guard tossed away his cap and pulled Ye Tian along with him.

Ye Tian glanced at him and said calmly,

"Was it worth losing your job for a down-and-out stranger like me?"

Hearing this, the guard looked at Ye Tian with a serious expression and said,

"President Ye, you can't put it like that."

"Do you remember? During the Spring Festival of the year I joined the company, my mother was critically ill, and I didn't have the money for her treatment."

"You made a special exception and had the company advance me the medical expenses. That's what saved my mother."

"I've always remembered that kindness."

"No matter what anyone else says about you, you're the best person in my eyes."

"I'd rather give up my job than let anyone insult you."

Ye Tian was taken aback. He really didn't remember that very well.

"Everyone out there says I'm a beast and a scumbag who violated an innocent girl and drove her to her death."

"You still think I'm a good person?"

Hearing this, the guard grew even angrier.

"President Ye, I used to be a scout. I can still make my own judgments about some things."

"There's something fishy about this whole affair from beginning to end. The rumors out there aren't necessarily true."

"Anyway, I don't believe you're that kind of person!"

The guard's words stirred an inexplicable current of warmth deep in Ye Tian's long-cold heart.

He hadn't expected that his closest brother and lover would betray him, or that the person he had personally helped advance would mock and humiliate him.

In the end, it was a low-ranking security guard he'd never paid attention to who believed in him so firmly.

The guard was even willing to lose his job to defend him.

Such loyalty and righteousness were truly hard to come by.

"Righteous men are often found among dog butchers; the faithless are often scholars."

"From today on, follow me!"
