Lin Fan spent money to buy up all the unsold vegetables at the scene and donated them to the nearby elementary school. The vegetable sellers were deeply grateful to Lin Fan. However, this solution was only temporary; to truly help these vendors, a more fundamental method was needed.
To stop the Wei Family, thereās only one way!
But this method might not necessarily succeed, and even Lin Fan wasnāt entirely confident about it.
Thatās why Lin Fan hadnāt explained the method to Liu Mengjie yet.
The two of them chatted while leaving the vegetable market and returned to the entrance of Lijing District.
"Little Fan, come to my house. Itās been a long time since weāve had a meal together," Liu Mengjie suggested again.
Lin Fan replied, "Alright, but I still have two deliveries to make, both in this district. Sister Mengjie, go home first, and Iāll come to see you after Iām done."
Liu Mengjie said, "Two deliveries? Let me help you deliver one, then we can go back together."
She wanted to have some alone time with Lin Fan as soon as possible. The more she got to know Lin Fan, the more she liked this young man. Besides his good looks, he was different from those profit-driven rich people. In the world of wealthy individuals, Lin Fan, the richest man in Yun City, was like a breath of fresh air.
Lin Fan said, "Alright, Iāll give you one in a minute."
Just as they were about to enter the district.
They heard sounds of arguing at the district entrance.
The argument had already attracted a crowd of onlookers.
It turned out that a delivery driver and the security guard at the district entrance were having a quarrel.
"I said you canāt go in!" The security guard shouted impatiently.
The delivery driver asked curiously, "Why not? I delivered here yesterday, and it was fine then. Brother, canāt you make an exception?"
The security guard replied, "Itās not my decision. The property management said that to enhance security and hygiene in the district, delivery drivers are no longer allowed to enter. Iām just following the rules!"
The delivery driver said, "What kind of rule is that? Iām just delivering some food. Why is it suddenly considered unsafe and unhygienic? This rule is absurd!"
The security guard glared and said, "You ask me, who am I supposed to ask? In any case, you just canāt go in!"
The delivery driver pleaded, "Brother, canāt you make an exception? Iām really short on time, and if this order is delayed, Iāll definitely be late for the others and face complaints. Iāll just drop this off and leave."
The security guard stubbornly replied, "No way. The only option is to have someone come out and get it!"
The delivery driverās face fell, but there was nothing he could do. The security guard wouldnāt let him in, so he reluctantly took out his phone to call the customer.
"Hello, your delivery is here, but the guard wonāt let me in. Could you please come to the entrance to pick it up? Sorry for the inconvenience," the delivery driver said with a forced smile.
Surprisingly!
The person on the other end was furious and shouted, "What do you mean you canāt come in? I order delivery every day, and everyone else can come in. Are you dumb? Get in here quickly, or Iāll complain!"
The call ended abruptly.
The delivery driver was extremely embarrassed.
He hesitated, considering whether to call the customer again to explain properly and ask them to come out for the food.
But he worried that doing so might upset the customer further. If the customer got angry and gave him a bad review, heād lose out big on this order.
Besides, even if the customer agreed to come out, if they took their time, it would still impact his ability to deliver subsequent orders. After some thought, he decided that personally going inside to deliver would be the best solution.
However, the security guard wouldnāt let him in, absolutely wouldnāt let him in!
"Security brother, everyone is out here trying to make a living. Itās tough for all of us. If I canāt deliver, today will be a waste for me. Could you please make an exception and let me in just for a moment? I promise Iāll leave quickly and wonāt cause any issues," the delivery driver pleaded again, his attitude somewhat humble.
The security guard coldly replied, "You know itās tough out here, but if I let you in and the property management finds out, my month will be wasted too. Thereās even a risk of losing my job. Could you please not bother me, just get lost! Youāre useless, doing a delivery job. Tough luck, serves you right!"
The delivery driverās heart sank, and he replied emotionally, "You can refuse me entry, but please donāt launch personal attacks. Youāre not more noble than me!"
The security guard laughed mockingly, "Oh really, I think Iām better off. At least I donāt have to run around in the sun and rain. You need to ask me to get in. Am I not better off?"
The delivery driver was speechless. Indeed, in the current situation, the security guard was like a boss. Their positions were unequal, and he needed to ask the security guard if he wanted to get in, having no other option.
Seeing the delivery driver speechless, the security guard grew more arrogant. "No more words to say, huh! You delivery guys shouldnāt compare yourselves to me. You want to get in? Beg me, kneel down and knock your head three times, call me grandpa, then Iāll let you!"
The delivery driver felt deeply insulted by this, clenching his fist.
"Youāre saying if I beg you by kneeling, you would let me in. So you could let me in, but youāre choosing not to!" the delivery driver said.
The security guard chuckled, "Yeah, so what! Iām not letting you in, what can you do? Iām the one in charge here!"
The delivery driver was furious, "You bastard, donāt think you can do whatever you want with a little authority. I wonāt kneel to you, but I will deliver this food!"
With that said, the delivery driver picked up the meal and headed for the district.
He prepared to go in by force.
"Hey, you little punk, acting tough in front of me!"
The security guard shouted, drawing out a baton from his waist, and hit it on the back of the delivery driverās head.
Bang!
It was a heavy blow!
The delivery driver was wearing a helmet, but the security guard hit him so hard in anger that the helmet cracked.
Blood quickly began to flow from inside the helmet.
"Ah!" the delivery driver screamed, staggered, and fell to the ground.
Bang!
The meal he was holding dropped on the ground, the soup spilling everywhere, completely ruining the delivery.
Seeing this, the crowd around showed expressions of shock. This security guard was too brutal, hitting someone just like that!
"You little punk, I told you, you canāt come in here. If you go in, Iāll lose my pay, and youāre still being tough with me, trying to break in. Do you not know how to spell ādeathā? Get out of here, or Iāll hit you again!"
The security guard shouted, raising his baton, ready to strike again.
Suddenly, someone caught the security guardās hand.
The security guard turned to see Lin Fanās cold gaze.
Lin Fan and Liu Mengjie had just returned from the vegetable market. As they arrived at the district entrance, they noticed the argument, but by the time they got there, the security guard had already hit the delivery driver.
As the security guard was about to strike a second time, Lin Fan, who had just arrived, immediately moved to stop him.
"Who the hell are you, let me go!" the security guard angrily shouted, seeing Lin Fan wearing a courier uniform, he immediately became arrogant.
Lin Fan said coldly, "Are you still planning to hit?"
The security guard replied, "What I do is none of your business!"
Lin Fan slightly increased his grip, like a pair of iron pliers, holding the security guard tightly.
The security guard felt the pain and became scared, realizing Lin Fan wasnāt easy to deal with, suddenly softening his tone, "Hey brother, donāt mess around. The property management only said delivery drivers canāt enter, not couriers, so you can still go in."
Lin Fan coldly asked, "I asked if youāre still planning to hit?"
The security guard quickly responded, "No, I wonāt hit anymore."
Only then did Lin Fan release him.
At this moment, the delivery driver was sitting on the ground, his face covered in blood flowing down from his helmet, clearly his head was hit open by the security guard.
He was on the phone, "Honey, Iām delivering at Lijing District again, I might be home late today. The security guard just wouldnāt let me in, and he hit me, Iām bleeding..."
Before he could finish speaking, the delivery driver suddenly collapsed to the ground, his phone falling at his side.
From the phone, came an anxious voice, "Hello, what happened, say something, hello..."
