"Little Yi, what exactly happened?"

Xu Yi lowered his head, his face full of grievance.

"I worked for them, but they refused to pay me and mocked me. They said I was an orphan..."

[Guilt Points +100]

Zhang Yu: "???"

When did I say that!

Lu Wei looked at Zhang Yu with the expression of someone watching an idiot.

Li Wen's face was full of anger, "Damn it! This is too much... Who refused to pay?"

The three female office workers and Lu Wei pointed at Zhang Yu in unison.

Slap~

Li Wen had a bad temper and, without a word, delivered several slaps, making her see stars.

It could be said that Li Wen's current bottom line was the fact that Xu Yi was an orphan.

Everyone else dared not utter a sound.

Lu Wei said with a fawning smile, "Manager Li, you've already hit her, let's just let this matter go."

"Impossible!"

"Manager Li, your nephew crashed the car into our store. None of us are in the right here."

Li Wen: "This is too much!"

"Yes, yes, it is indeed too much." Lu Wei nodded in strong agreement.

"What exactly did you people insult him with to make him lose his mind like this? It's simply outrageous! Just hearing about the actions, I feel suffocated."

Lu Wei: "???"

Bro, do you even know what you're saying?

Xu Yi sneered, Reason? You, a nobody, want to reason with the Chairman?

Childish, this is hilarious.

"Give Little Yi the money he's owed, and everyone else apologize to him. Then this matter will be over."

"But our store's losses..."

"You're dreaming."

[Negative Emotion Points +200]

Lu Wei's face was extremely ugly. Apologizing was fine; he could endure it.

After all, face wasn't worth much.

But the losses were different. The initial estimate was fifty to sixty thousand.

If you don't compensate, then I have to bear the responsibility.

Who could stand that?

Therefore, after a dozen seconds of hesitation, Lu Wei decisively shook his head.

"No! I must receive compensation. After the compensation is in place, I will definitely apologize to him."

Li Wen's expression turned cold, his tone filled with intense pressure.

"I'll give you one more chance to rephrase that."

"I want compensation!"

"Manager Li, Furun Group is indeed powerful, but we are also a company in Magic City. If it really comes down to a lawsuit, it's not certain who will win or lose."

Li Wen laughed in anger, "Alright, alright, you're trying to pressure me with Magic City?"

"I'm just stating the facts."

Zhang Yu looked at Lu Wei with extreme admiration, "Brother Wei, you're so amazing~ You can even stand up to the Chairman of Furun Group. So much spirit."

"Just kidding, I'm super brave, okay."

Feeling the admiring gazes from the four women, Lu Wei's back straightened considerably.

Zhang Yu became even bolder, "Manager Li, the store has surveillance cameras. We'll meet in court."

Xu Yi delivered a General Fei Kick, knocking her to the ground.

"Meet in court? You won't even make it to the underworld."

[Negative Emotion Points +100]

Zhang Yu: Speaking up for me...

But no one cared about Zhang Yu's miserable state anymore.

The atmosphere at this moment had become tense and anxious.

Neither side was willing to budge.

However, Li Wen had already decided to kill.

Regardless of the outcome today, they wouldn't be able to stay in Port City anymore.

Just then, a pleasant voice came from the doorway.

"Brother, how are you? Are you okay?"

As Xu Yi expected, Huang Lu also carefully examined Xu Yi.

Her soft, fair little hands massaged him all over.

"Good, no injuries."

"No, it's very likely internal injuries."

Xu Yi: "..."

[Negative Emotion Points +50]

[Shock Value +500]

Lu Wei, standing behind them, had his mouth wide open, his pupils constricting.

"Y-Young Miss...! Why are you here?"

Slap

A crisp sound echoed, and the entire hall fell silent.

Lu Wei clutched his face, trembling under Huang Lu's icy gaze.

"Are these the people who bullied my brother?"

Lu Wei shook his head desperately, his eyes filled with terror, "No, no. How could I dare to bully your brother?"

Damn it! Why is the Young Miss always your sister?

Why are all the awesome people your relatives?

Dude, is your father God?

Lu Wei's heart pounded wildly as he mentally cursed the four stupid women to death.

One moment he was gloating about his company being from Magic City, and the next he was slapped in the face by the Young Miss from Magic City.

Life is so unfair...

[Shock Value 400*4]

The four female office workers behind him weren't faring any better than Lu Wei.

Zhang Yu, in particular, had her brain frozen, her eyes vacant.

So what he said before was true!

He really bought this company as a gift for him.

But he didn't want it? And he went to drive for ride-sharing to earn money...

What a lunatic!

Seeing the awkward silence, Xu Yi stepped forward to ease the tension.

"It's okay, little sister. They didn't really bully me. They just asked me to say my last words. They also said things like I don't deserve my sister..."

[Negative Emotion Points +400]

[Negative Emotion Points +400]

[...]

The five of them: "⊙?⊙!"

When did we say that?

Is it appropriate for your background to be so green-tea-like?

"Sister, please forgive them. At least I'm still alive."

Brother, please stop being so green-tea.

If you keep this up, we'll lose our lives.

At this moment, Huang Lu's pretty face was covered in frost, her teeth clenched.

"Break them."

The bodyguards behind her immediately followed the order, their attacks fierce and agonizing, but not fatal.

Clearly, these bodyguards were professionally trained. Judging by their demeanor, Xu Yi guessed they were likely retired special forces.

Only a few people's heart-wrenching screams remained.

Even Xu Yi felt a pang of fear.

But Huang Lu's expression remained unchanged, the murderous intent in her eyes never receding.

This sister of mine… seems more ruthless than I imagined.

"Sister, tell them to stop. It feels like they're about to be beaten to death."

"Brother, you're just too kind. People will take advantage of you like this.

Back at the orphanage, when the other kids bullied me, you stood in front of me and fought them.

That's why, even though I was the smallest and thinnest in the orphanage, no one dared to bully me.

Brother, from now on, I'll protect you."

Xu Yi took a deep breath. What man could resist eating this kind of soft rice?

What decent person wouldn't eat soft rice?

"Stop, my brother is kind and plans to let you go."

[Negative Emotion Points +500*5]

The five men remained silent, only contributing their emotion points.

They didn't even dare to give a resentful look.

Xu Yi nodded. "I'm still too kind. Don't worry, although your bodies hurt, there are no broken bones. You'll be fine in a few days."

The men wore pained expressions. Thank you so much!

Just then, police sirens sounded from outside.

Huang Lu raised an eyebrow. "Did you call the police?"

Lu Wei nodded fearfully. "When the car crashed in, I was scared and called the police."

Li Wen's gaze was full of threat. "Later, you know what to say and what not to say. Understand?"

"Yes, yes."

Meng Xiang got out of the police car.

Last time, pressure from his superiors had caused him to let two criminals escape, which had frustrated him immensely.

This time, nothing would save them!

He was determined to bring evil to justice, unswayed by power.

My name is Tie Lin, what's yours?!

As soon as he walked through the entrance, he was stunned by the scene inside.
