Rain: There's a Limit to Pretending to Be Poor

The five people in front of them were stunned by this move.

Are people this self-aware now?

They cause trouble and then proactively offer their last words.

Lu Wei shot a reproachful glance at the four women. "Did you bully the honest person again?"

"People are so irritable these days. If you ever meet someone ruthless enough to take four with them, you'll regret it."

Lu Wei cleared his throat. He couldn't miss any opportunity to show off in front of the four women.

"Little brother, even though you've proactively said your last words to your family, you won't be spared the punishment you deserve."

Xu Yi rolled his eyes at him. "Who asked you?"

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

"What the hell? He's looking down on me... Kill him!"

Receiving the order, the security guards lunged at Xu Yi like hungry tigers.

Even though they were from the lower class, they loved bullying people from the lower class the most.

They worked as security guards during the day, blocking delivery drivers. At night, they worked as delivery drivers, yelling at security guards.

This was their life.

"Stop!" a furious roar came from outside the door.

Yu Shu walked over, his face full of surprise. He examined Xu Yi from head to toe, relieved to confirm he wasn't injured.

After discussions from above, it had been decided to promote him further. He was currently in a probationary period.

Logically, with his current abilities, he had no hope at all.

A stable retirement would be considered good.

It could be said that Xu Yi was his benefactor.

But if anything happened to Xu Yi, not only would his chances of entering the department be ruined, but his conscience would also be severely burdened.

"Uncle Yu, why are you here?"

"Are you alright? Did they hit you? Were you scared?"

[Negative Emotion Points +50*4]

Zhang Yu: "You should be asking us that question."

Seeing Yu Shu wearing an administrative jacket, she couldn't help but ask warily, "Who are you?"

"Brother Wei, he's just this poor kid's uncle, so he must be poor too. What's there to ask?"

Stupid woman, an administrative jacket, a thermos... Do you know the value of these two things?

Yu Shu looked at them coldly. "Assault is illegal, do you know that?"

"Old geezer, get lost. This doesn't concern you. Otherwise, we'll beat you up too," another female white-collar worker blurted out.

"Heh heh~ I'd like to see if you dare."

"Wearing a shabby jacket, and you think you're an official?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Shu's assistant proactively produced his identification.

"I am the Director of the Magic City Education Bureau. Are you sure you dare to hit me?"

Just then, the TV on the wall played a video of Yu Shu inspecting and visiting various schools.

The face on the screen perfectly matched the Yu Shu in front of them.

[Shock Value +100*5]

The crowd was completely dumbfounded.

The many security guards unconsciously took a few steps back. This was a high-ranking official!

They couldn't afford to offend him, couldn't afford to offend him...

Lu Wei turned and glared angrily at Zhang Yu, displeased. "What were you thinking? You bullied the Director's nephew?"

Zhang Yu retreated a few steps, flustered. "I, I didn't know! I thought he was just some cheap ride-hailing driver."

[Negative Emotion Points +200]

Zhang Yu looked at Xu Yi resentfully. What were you thinking? Your uncle is a Director, and you're still driving a ride-hailing car?

I know a department head, and even the dog in the village became a police dog.

Lu Wei's previous arrogant demeanor vanished. He obsequiously offered Yu Shu a cigarette, poured him tea, and poured him water... but all were coldly refused.

Lu Wei: "Oh, Director, it was all a misunderstanding. Since he's your nephew, I won't pursue it further. As long as he compensates for the store's losses."

Yu Shu remained silent, instead handing the decision-making power to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi sneered, "Compensate your mother!"

"I'll crash into you guys, and it'll be your own fault. You still want compensation from me? Hurry up and pay me the 1150."

[Negative Emotion Points +200]

Lu Wei's face was extremely ugly, especially being scolded in front of the four women, which made him feel like he had lost all face.

"Aren't you going too far?

Even if your uncle is the director, you can't be this arrogant!

Director, if you abuse your authority in broad daylight, don't blame me for reporting you."

Yu Shu's expression showed a hint of emotion, but he still remained silent. Everything was left to Xu Yi to decide.

Xu Yi didn't stand on ceremony, slapping him on the forehead. "Are you sure you're not going to pay me the 1150?"

"I'm not paying! And you still owe our store a large sum in compensation, plus their emotional damages.

So what if you're the director? We common folk aren't made of clay."

Seeing his righteous demeanor, Xu Yi almost wanted to applaud him.

Kid, you think you've reached the moral high ground.

But you're too naive if you think this is all the connections I have.

I hope you can maintain this defiant attitude later.

The atmosphere fell into a stalemate, and Yu Shu's expression was a little troubled.

Lu Wei was right; his position was a convenience, but it was also a restriction.

There were people watching his every move.

If he picked his nose and didn't start with his left nostril, he might get reported.

Lu Wei said, "How about this, we both take a step back. You compensate our store for the losses, and I'll give you the 1150."

"Are you dreaming?"

Xu Yi laughed.

These losses would be tens of thousands at least. You want to get all the good stuff? Is that fair?

"So, there's nothing more to discuss?"

"No compensation."

"Today, I'll spare you out of respect for the director. We will be filing a lawsuit.

Our company is based in Magic City. Are you sure you dare to offend us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, another person appeared at the entrance.

Similar to Yu Shu's reaction, he first conducted a thorough scan of Xu Yi's body.

After confirming he was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Director, thank you."

"Xiao Yi, Uncle Li is late. Fortunately, nothing happened. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to explain it to Brother Fan."

"It's okay, Uncle Li. I was just missing my father too much just now."

[Guilt Points +100]

"You must have been wronged. Uncle Li will get justice for you."

Li Wen turned around and faced them.

He exuded the aura of a superior once again.

"What exactly happened here? Who bullied my nephew?"

[Negative Emotion Points +50 * 5]

Zhang Yu was so angry she wanted to curse. Who exactly was bullying whom?

Couldn't they see the huge car parked inside the house?

My legs are still trembling.

But even though she was complaining in her heart, she still cowered behind Lu Wei.

Lu Wei narrowed his eyes. "And who are you?"

"I'm his uncle."

Zhang Yu said, "Brother Wei, don't mind him. He's just a director uncle at best, otherwise, he wouldn't be driving a ride-sharing car."

"My name is Li Wen, and I am the Chairman of Furun Group. My nephew will be the next chairman. You can check our official website."

[Shock Value +200 * 5]

Slap~

A crisp slapping sound was heard.

Lu Wei ruthlessly slapped Zhang Yu.

"I've told you so many times, don't call me 'Wei Ge'! It sounds so awful..."

"Wei Ge, I..."

Slap~

"You're still calling me that!"

[Negative Emotion Points +100]

Zhang Yu shot Xu Yi another resentful glare.

Your uncle is the Chairman of Furun Group, so why are you driving a ride-share car?

Is there something wrong with your head?

There's a limit to pretending to be poor!

Lu Wei's hands were numb, and he felt even more numb inside.

He deeply regretted getting involved in this mess. He had thought they were just some poor kids, but it turned out their backgrounds were more incredible than the last. In front of the Chairman of Furun Group, he wasn't even worth a fart.
