Xu Yi, I'm Your Uncle!

"Who are you?" Wang Kang said disdainfully.

"How dare you! This is Chairman—"

Before the assistant beside him could finish, Li Wen stopped him.

He reined in the killing intent radiating from him and looked at Xu Yi with gentle eyes.

"Like him. So much like him. I can see his shadow between your brows."

Xu Yi found it amusing, but he still put on a composed expression.

"You're that uncle who was boxing this morning? What are you doing here?" Xu Yi asked in confusion.

"Xu Yi, I'm your uncle."

Uncle?

Everyone present wore strange expressions and instinctively looked at Yu Shu.

Another uncle had appeared...

Director, was he really an orphan?

Xu Yi looked even more bewildered. "I have an uncle too?"

"That's right. Your father and I are biological brothers from different fathers and mothers."

Everyone: "..."

"You've suffered enough grievances before. From today onward, not a single person in Harbor City will dare to bully you, and no one will be able to. That's my word!" Li Wen declared domineeringly.

"Hehe, I don't care where this uncle of yours came from. Since you've offended me, don't even think about having an easy time in Harbor City."

Yu Shu shook his head. "It's fine, Xu Yi. At worst, come work at the Education Bureau. A position countless people dream of."

Li Wen shook his head. "Thank you, Director, but this is a family matter. I'll handle it myself."

Yu Shu: "???"

Dude, are you stealing my job?

Slap!

Yu Shu was still feeling displeased when Li Wen's palm had already struck Wang Kang across the face.

"You're just a minor manager at Furun Group. Who gave you permission to throw your weight around outside?

"You corporate parasites—did HR take the wrong medicine when they hired the lot of you?"

Apparently frightened by Li Wen's imposing aura, Wang Kang covered his face and backed away repeatedly. "Y-you, who exactly are you?"

"Hehe, you're asking who I am? Are you even qualified to know?"

Zhang Quan whispered from the side, "Manager Wang, don't let him bluff you. How could a poor student have powerful relatives? I think he's just putting on a show."

"Y-yes..."

Wang Kang nodded repeatedly.

But before his words had even faded, Li Wen slapped him across the face again.

Having come from the military, Li Wen had always hated evil—and these were employees under his command engaging in corruption and wrongdoing.

"Call your superior right now and ask him who I am."

"Ask him, now!"

Wang Kang was completely intimidated by his aura and called the general manager.

"Hello, Brother-in-law."

"How many times have I told you? At the company, address me by my title."

"Plant."

"What exactly is it?"

"It's nothing much. Someone told me to call you."

Chen Xiao could no longer hold it in and immediately started cursing Wang Kang. "Are you a damn donkey? Someone tells you to call me, and you call? What if they told you to eat shit?"

"Calm down, Brother-in-law. It's mainly because that guy has the presence of some big leader."

"You! Forget it... ask him what his name is."

Wang Kang looked at Li Wen fearfully. "My brother-in-law is asking for your name."

"Li Wen."

"Li Wen? That sounds a little familiar."

"Brother-in-law, his name is Li Wen."

"Hmph, Li Wen... Li Wen!"

A chair crashed over on the other end of the call. "Isn't that the chairman? Go check the chairman's photo on the company's official website and compare it to him."

At that moment, Wang Kang felt as if ten thousand alpacas were stampeding through his heart. It couldn't be that unlucky, could it?

Please don't let him be the chairman...

He hurriedly opened the official website, looked at the photo, then looked at Li Wen in front of him.

Wonderful... the heart that had been hanging in the air had finally died.

Chen Xiao asked, "Well? Did you compare them?"

"Y-yes... he's the chairman."

Thud!

The sound of another chair toppling over came through the phone.

Chen Xiao's voice was tense and curious. "Why did he tell you to call me?"

Wang Kang could no longer hold himself together. His voice carried a sobbing tone. "Wuwuwu... Brother-in-law, I think I'm done for. I've offended his nephew beyond repair. Brother-in-law came to hold me accountable."

The other end of the line fell silent for a while.

"Brother-in-law, what should I do?"

"Brother-in-law... Brother-in-law?"

"Haha, it's all a small matter. By the way, what did you say just now?"

"Brother-in-law, what should I do? You got me hired through the back door. You have to protect me."

"Who's your brother-in-law? I was just about to divorce your sister."

Beep, beep, beep...

Then came the cold busy tone from the phone.

Clearly, Wang Kang's world had completely collapsed.

But he still had to face reality. He looked at Li Wen with a tearful expression.

"Chairman, I didn't know it was you."

"What a coincidence. I didn't know it was you either."

"..."

"Chairman, would you believe me if I said I didn't do it on purpose? I apologize to you and your nephew."

"I didn't send that lawyer's letter on purpose either. Do you believe me?"

Thud!

Wang Kang could no longer hold on and collapsed limply to the ground.

For the chairman of Furun Group, investigating an employee would be all too easy.

Over the past few years, Wang Kang had used the company's name to extort, take bribes, and stir up trouble.

If it really went to court, he would be sitting in prison for the rest of his life.

Manager Wang instantly became Prisoner Wang.

"Manager Wang, are you all right?" the supermarket owner hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.

"Fuck you!"

Wang Kang couldn't hold back and slapped him hard across the face.

"Didn't you say he was just a poor student? Have you ever seen a poor student whose uncle is the chairman?"

The supermarket owner looked aggrieved. "I didn't know he was that good at pretending?

"What kind of normal person has such an insane background and still goes around selling Instant Noodles? Isn't that crazy?"

Everyone present was utterly dumbfounded as they looked at Xu Yi with strange expressions.

With such a powerful background, why hadn't you used it sooner?

Other people pretended to be rich, but you pretended to be poor? What kind of fetish was that?

You even hated capital. Dude, you were the biggest capitalist of all!

At that moment, the confusion in Xu Yi's eyes finally cleared somewhat. "You're... Uncle Li?"

"Yes, yes! It's me!" Li Wen was overjoyed.

"My dad said that if I ever ran into trouble, I could come to you, because you were his best brother. Before, I thought my dad was lying to me."

Guilt Points +100

Xu Yi raised an eyebrow.

It seemed Li Wen truly regarded my dad as his best brother.

"Xu Yi, would you be satisfied if Uncle Li sent Wang Kang to prison?"

Xu Yi nodded. "Satisfied."

"But... my Instant Noodles stall has still been canceled."

After hearing that, Zhang Quan broke out in a cold sweat. "No! Wang Kang forced and bribed me. You can lease any cafeteria stall you want. You can take them all!"

Xu Yi shook his head. "I only want my original Instant Noodles stall. After all, I can't afford to rent the other stalls. Selling Instant Noodles is enough to keep me fed."

Guilt Points +200

"Don't say another word, Xu Yi. This is all Uncle Li's fault! You don't need to keep selling Instant Noodles either..."

"Hm?"

"This school supermarket belongs to Furun Group. We'll take it back now. From now on, you'll manage the supermarket. All the profits will be yours too. You won't need to cover any costs."

Everyone looked on enviously. Wasn't this basically giving him money for free?

Unexpectedly, Xu Yi shook his head. "But I've been under a lot of academic pressure lately... I can't take care of the supermarket."

Li Wen slapped his forehead in frustration. "I didn't think this through. Then I'll find you a few managers, and you can be a hands-off boss. Who should I pick?"

The supermarket owner and the others looked expectant, practically ready to raise their hands.

It didn't matter that Wang Kang had fallen. Working for anyone was still work.

Managing the supermarket was a cushy job.

Li Wen pointed at them, and their hearts leaped with joy.

"Get the hell out of here!"
