Lin Fan opened his mouth demanding Liu Xiaodan apologize, causing everyone at the Company to turn their eyes to Lin Fan.
"What did he just say?"
"He said he wants Xiaodan to apologize."
"Hahaha, what, making Xiaodan apologize, whereâs the confidence coming from?"
"This guy dressed like this, clearly just a loser, truly fearless due to ignorance."
The crowd burst into laughter.
Liu Xiaodan looked coldly at Lin Fan: "Iâm the one who hit him, so what, a stinky delivery guy arriving late, whatâs wrong with scolding him or hitting him, and he dares to complain? Look at you acting all mighty!"
Liu Xiaodan was indeed arrogant.
Little Meng couldnât help but speak up: "I was late by one minute because I was waiting for the elevator, and Iâve already apologized to you, but you insisted on hitting me to feel satisfied."
To restore the situation, Little Meng was late by one minute because he waited for the elevator. Liu Xiaodan scolded him and even threatened to report him. Little Meng apologized and almost begged, but still, he was hit by Liu Xiaodan, who finally let him go.
Liu Xiaodan said: "Who else should I hit? You wasted my one minute, do you know how precious my one minute is? Can someone of your low status compare?"
Little Mengâs face turned red, momentarily at a loss for how to refute; indeed, they were employed in a big company while he was just a delivery guy, feeling a bit inferior.
Seeing Little Meng at a loss for words, Liu Xiaodan became even more arrogant: "Dare to come mess with me, look at you acting all tough, hurry up and get out. If you donât leave, Iâll report you for harassing customers and see if you can even deliver!"
Lin Fan chuckled: "Are you sure you want to do this?"
Liu Xiaodan replied: "Why, want to give it a try?"
Lin Fan said: "Reasonably speaking, Little Meng was indeed wrong by being late, and he apologized to you too. Itâs okay if you donât want to understand, scold him a bit, we delivery guys can endure grievances on our own, but hitting someone is not right, itâs an insult to personal dignity. You should apologize to Little Meng."
Liu Xiaodan coldly snorted: "What the hell does that have to do with you, who are you?"
Lin Fan replied: "Who I am is not important, the reasoning is what it is, itâs up to you how to handle it."
Liu Xiaodan retorted: "What, if I donât apologize, youâre going to hit me?"
Lin Fan smiled slightly: "If I were to hit you, your head would fly off. I said I came to reason with you, if you are unwilling to apologize to Little Meng, you may face some consequences."
Liu Xiaodan angrily shouted: "Are you threatening me? Just you, what can you do to me?"
Lin Fan said: "You said Little Meng wasted your one minute by being late? I can make you waste more time."
Liu Xiaodan cursed: "Iâd like to see what you can do to me!"
"Sister Dan, dominating!"
"Sister Dan isnât afraid, this pauper doesnât even dare to hit, what can he do?"
"Scare who, my Sister Dan is raised fearless!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"Whatâs going on, not going to eat, causing a ruckus here?"
At this point, a voice sternly said, then a young man in a suit came out, drawn by the commotion.
Seeing him, the crowd immediately quieted down.
This person was He Jinsheng, the manager of the marketing department, their superior!
"Got into an argument with a delivery guy." an employee said.
He Jinsheng chuckled: "What, why argue with a delivery guy, just send them out."
The tone was full of disdain.
Liu Xiaodan pointed at Lin Fan: "Manager, you came at the right time, these two are causing trouble and threatening me, Manager, you have to stand up for me."
He Jinsheng followed her indication, finally seeing Lin Fan, his expression changed, and his legs softened: "Mr. Lin?"
Quickly approached Lin Fan with a bow, showing utmost respect.
Lin Fan smiled slightly: "Manager He, didnât expect to meet again so soon."
He Jinsheng wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, forced a smile: "Yes, Mr. Lin, what brings you to visit our Company?"
He tentatively asked, fearing Lin Fan came to trouble him because of a previous meeting, his nerves tensed.
Lin Fan said: "Nothing else, itâs like this, my delivery guy brother was hit by your employee, I just came to seek justice."
Not here because of me, He Jinsheng suddenly felt a weight lifted from his heart, realizing he was safe, such a relief indeed.
But he dared not be careless.
"Such a thing happened!" He Jinsheng showed a serious face, turned back to scrutinize the employees, "who hit someone, stand up!"
The employees were all stunned.
They watched He Jinsheng nod and bow to Lin Fan, like a lapdog!
What the hell!
Whatâs going on?
Realizing Lin Fanâs identity wasnât simple, everyone broke into cold sweat, especially Liu Xiaodan, whose complexion changed.
"Itâs her!"
All employees pointed at Liu Xiaodan, eager to clear themselves, helplessly, seeing Manager Heâs demeanor, they realized Lin Fan wasnât someone to cross, naturally wanting to protect themselves.
He Jinshengâs gaze fixed on Liu Xiaodan: "Liu Xiaodan, whatâs the matter with you, why did you hit someone?"
Liu Xiaodanâs voice trembled: "He... was late..."
He Jinsheng responded: "Late?"
Little Meng said: "Because of a traffic jam, I was one minute late from the agreed time, Iâve apologized to her, but she wasnât satisfied and hit me, even threatened to report me. I was going to endure it, Brother Fan decided to get me justice."
He Jinsheng listened, especially to the last sentence, immediately his face darkened, pointing at Liu Xiaodan and scolding: "Rascal, just because heâs late you can hit people? If youâre late to work, can I hit you?"
Liu Xiaodan turned red with embarrassment, dared not respond.
He Jinsheng shouted: "Answer me, have I hit you when youâre late to work?"
Liu Xiaodan shook her head: "No."
He Jinsheng said: "Thatâs it, delivery guys work hard come rain or shine, sometimes encounter traffic jams, elevators crowded, being a bit late is normal, we ought to understand, even if you donât, hitting the delivery guy, do you have any humanity!"
He scolded with righteous fervor, completely forgetting his previous disdain for delivery personnel.
Lin Fan quietly shook his head, this He Jinsheng, truly a petty person, if Lin Fan werenât here, he probably would have bullied the delivery guy too.
Liu Xiaodan being scolded by He Jinsheng felt aggrieved, couldnât help but say: "A stinky delivery, hit him as I like, is it really that exaggerated?"
He Jinsheng became furious: "You dare say!"
Lin Fan chuckled: "Manager He, your subordinate is quite arrogant, treating even a manager like you with disdain, can you handle this, if not, starting next month, the rent here will double."
He Jinsheng was shocked, doubling the rent, too harsh!
He Jinsheng immediately pointed at Liu Xiaodanâs nose: "I announce, Liu Xiaodan youâre fired, pack your things and leave immediately!"
