Su Can could not help but frown. He needed the construction to be completed as soon as possible, but these people were chatting here. Was this not just delaying the progress of his construction?

The supervisor, who was standing next to Su Can, quickly noticed the change in Su Can’s mood and said, “Mr. Su, please calm down. If they dare to slack off, I definitely won’t stand aside and do nothing. I’ll go and talk to them now!”

As soon as the supervisor finished speaking, he quickly led Su Can over to the group of people who were arguing. He stood with his arms crossed in front of Su Can and asked sternly, “What are you guys doing? Why are you guys arguing? Isn’t it better to work and earn money instead?”

A group of workers wearing yellow hard hats immediately gathered in front of Su Can and the supervisor before they began to complain one after another.

“Don’t you know? They hit us!”

One of the workers pointed at a huge dent on a truck and said, “We were just working here, but he hit our truck! He was clearly driving recklessly!”

“Look at what he has done!”

“I don’t know how much it’ll cost to repair this!”

At this time, a bald man wearing a gold chain pushed a worker and said aggressively, “Bullsh*t!”

As soon as Su Can saw the bald man, he recognized the bald man immediately.

‘Isn’t he the hooligan who harassed Li Jiayue at the bar previously?’

Su Can narrowed his eyes as he shifted his gaze to the people next to the bald man. As expected, the bald man’s friends from the bar were present as well. Additionally, there was a woman dressed in revealing clothes with them as well. It was clear to Su Can that the bald man was trying to show off in front of the woman, but unfortunately, the woman did not seem very interested at all. She was playing with her phone and only looked up occasionally.

Finally, Su Can stepped forward and said, “Alright, calm down. It’s just a collision, right? I’ll help with the repair of the truck later. The construction is more important now. Let’s go back to work.”

Initially, Su Can thought something big had happened when he saw the commotion. In the end, it was a rather minor isSu Can; the worker’s truck only suffered a dent. He would send the truck to be repaired and rent another one in the meantime.

“But they…”

The workers looked at the thugs standing at the side, looking dissatisfied.

Su Can waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry about them. What’s the point of arguing with them? Hurry up and go back to work. I’ll compensate you later. As for these thugs…”

Su Can trailed off and turned to look at the thugs. At first glance, these people’s clothes looked like they were from luxury brands, but on closer inspection, one could see that they were fake. It was likely that these people did not have money, and asking them to pay up was likely as difficult as asking them to take their own lives. He might as well spend his time on the construction.

Finally, Su Can said coldly to the bald man, Bald Yang, “Leave before I call the police. I have something to do today so I won’t argue with you.”

“Wait!”

Bald Yang swaggered over to Su Can and sized Su Can up before he asked, “Are you that guy from the bar?”

At the same time, Li Jiayue leaned over and whispered, “It’s him! He and his friends harassed me previously!”

Su Can shielded Li Jiayue behind him and said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

Then, Su Can took a step forward. He chuckled coldly and retorted, “I am. So what? Do you have any complaints?”

Bald Yang snorted before he stepped aside to reveal his car and said, “Complaints? Take a look at what happened to my car! This is all your fault. You have to take responsibility. Either pay up or…”

As Bald Yang spoke, his eyes kept looking at Li Jiayue. He did not bother hiding his lecherous thoughts at all.

Upon seeing this, Li Jiayue shrank back in fear.

Seeing the fearful Li Jiayue, Bald Yang grew even more enthusiastic. He shouted, “I’m telling you, don’t even think about escaping today!”

“How much do you want?” Su Can asked indifferently. After all, this kind of matter was easy to solve with money. Under normal circumstances, he would never give money to a thug like Bald Yang. However, he was pressed for time now. It was more than enough to give Bald Yang 50,000 yuan to compensate for the damaged car. He would treat it as a donation to a beggar.

“Our car is new so it’s not cheap. It’ll cost at least 50,000 yuan,” Bald Yang said smugly as he placed his hands on his hips. In his opinion, Su Can was young and had just entered society. As such, he thought that Su Can would not be able to fork out 2,000 yuan, let alone 50,000 yuan. He was even more amused as he thought to himself, ‘Look at how poor he is. He’s even forced to work in a construction site in the middle of nowhere!’

Bald Yang sneered. He continued to say confidently, “In any case, what’s the point of you talking about compensation? You’re just a worker at this construction site. How dare you try to teach us a lesson? Are you trying to be a hero again?”

Upon hearing this, the supervisor, who had been silent all this time, finally said, “This is Mr. Su. He’s our boss. All of you were arguing so loudly so Mr. Su came to have a look.”

“Boss?” Bald Yang’s eyes widened in shock. He could not understand how the young man whom he had a conflict with not too long ago became a boss. For a moment, he wondered if the supervisor lied to him. However, after looking at the workers, he determined that the supervisor was telling the truth.

‘This is bad…’

Bald Yang instinctively glanced at the tall building in the back. He had heard that the person who bought the psychiatric hospital was very rich. Naturally, he knew it was best not to offend such a person. However, at the same time, he was also very unwilling to let the matter go. After all, he had obtained his car with great difficulty, and now it was damaged.

Bald Yang looked at his car again and thought to himself as he gritted his teeth, ‘No matter what, I have to get what I want today!’
