“Well, go on! Why aren’t you saying anything!”

“Weren’t you having a great time babbling away just now? Go on, then. Spare no details; report back everything that I’ve done. What are you, nine? Don’t you feel ashamed, tattling at your age?”

Duan Fei thought that he could threaten the manager by saying this, but he didn’t expect the manager to ignore his threats and continue speaking on the phone,

“Chairman, I’m sure you heard Young Master Duan confirm that this matter is indeed his responsibility. It has nothing to do with anyone in our restaurant! If you don’t punish the Duan father and son for this, it’s hard to say what will happen in the future.”

The chairman naturally understood what Manager Wang meant and coldly replied, “Alright!” And he hung up the phone.

The manager heard the chairman’s tone and knew he must be feeling quite displeased, so he put away his phone.

It would be unacceptable if the chairman still didn’t punish the Chen family after they caused the current dilemma.

The manager looked at Duan Fei and asked coldly, “Young Master Duan, is there something you need? If not, then I’ll be leaving!”

After saying this, the manager walked straight to the door.

But the manager didn’t expect Duan Fei to lose himself to his anger.

Duan Fei was so mad that he became a little crazy. His eyes had reddened until they resembled a wolf hungry for slaughter.

He was already unhappy that Chen Tianming had one-upped him. Moreover, he got ripped off in the furniture store. Now, even the manager of his restaurant treated him disrespectfully.

If he didn’t teach this manager a lesson today, he didn’t know what the manager would do to him in the future!

With that thought in mind, Duan Fei raised his fists and rushed at the manager. He punched him to the ground, straddled the man, and gave him more punches.

All the while, he muttered, “I’ll kill you, you no-good tattletale! Loudmouth snitch!”

Initially, the manager would endure it as Duan Fei was the young master of the Duan family, but Duan Fei’s hits became harder and harder. The manager finally couldn’t bear it anymore and, in a clever move, managed to flip and press Duan Fei to the ground.

The manager thought, ‘Since Young Master Duan had been so rude to me, I don’t need to be civil to him either.’

The manager began aiming for Duan Fei’s vulnerable spots. Before becoming a manager, he was part of a gang; he knew which areas he could hit without causing visible signs.

The manager fiercely taught Duan Fei a lesson. Then he glanced at him and left the office.

He didn’t care whether Duan Fei lived or died; he wanted nothing to do with the idiot.

After the manager was gone, Duan Fei laid on the ground, and his eyes were resentful.

However, the target of his hatred wasn’t the manager; it was Chen Tianming.

After all, if it weren’t for Chen Tianming, he wouldn’t have suffered so much. Therefore, Duan Fei blamed everything that had happened to him on Chen Tianming.

He would make Chen Tianming pay for this, no matter what. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to live with himself.

Duan Fei took out his mobile phone, and just as he was about to dial a unique contact number, his phone suddenly rang.

While Duan Fei was answering the phone, Chen Tianming and Su Xiaonuan—who had already left—also received a call.

Su Xiaonuan glanced at Chen Tianming when she saw that the caller was the chairman of the restaurant, silently asking if she should answer the call.

Chen Tianming nodded and signaled for her to take the call, so Su Xiaonuan picked up the phone.

The chairman spoke apologetically almost immediately after the call connected, “Ms. Su, please convey my apologies to Mr. Chen. It’s indeed our restaurant’s fault, and we are willing to pay appropriate compensation.”

The chairman paused briefly before continuing, “Our restaurant is willing to give Mr. Chen the biggest concession. Mr. Chen can reduce the investment amount of our restaurant by two points, but the shares will not change.”

Su Xiaonuan’s face filled with joy when she heard this,

She had been a little nervous when she left the restaurant with Chen Tianming. After all, Su Xiaonuan felt that the restaurant project had the potential to appreciate, and it would be a shame to lose it.

Though there would be little change in the Chen Corporation if they lost this project, who would reject money delivered to their doorstep?

Su Xiaonuan had planned to persuade Chen Tianming to reconsider the project once they returned to the company. It would work to their benefit if they could get this project.

Therefore, when she heard the chairman’s offer, her face was excited. After all, the chairman had given them a huge concession. These conditions were sound and very profitable for the Chen Corporation.

Just as Su Xiaonuan was about to accept the chairman’s suggestion, she saw Chen Tianming shaking his head.

Su Xiaonuan was confused by Tianming’s actions.

‘What does Mr. Chen mean? Why is he shaking his head?’

‘Does this mean that he disagrees with the chairman’s proposal? Or was the price unsuitable to him?’

Su Xiaonuan’s heart was filled with questions, but she didn’t ask them. After all, she was just an employee; her job was to follow her boss’s instructions.

Hence, Su Xiaonuan told the chairman, “Chairman Wong, let’s talk about this some other time! After all, we still need to discuss our collaboration with others in the corporation; it’s not something only the two of us can confirm.”

After saying this, Su Xiaonuan hung up without giving Chairman Wong a chance to respond.

If her guessed correctly, this was what Tianming wanted.

Tianming nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of the top assistant given to him by the system, her comprehension ability was amazing!

Now that everything was ready, he just needed to get the restaurant project at the lowest price!

When Su Xiaonuan hung up on him, Chairman Wong knew Chen Tianming’s intentions, so he called Duan Fei’s father again.

The chairman wanted Duan Fei to make amends to Chen Tianming. If Chen Tianming wouldn’t forgive Duan Fei, then the Duan family would no longer be a shareholder in the restaurant.

After Duan Fei’s father heard the chairman’s demand, he immediately sent bodyguards to capture Duan Fei. He took off Duan Fei’s shirt and tied a pile of rattan to his back. Then, they walked toward Chen Tianming’s company.

Duan Fei had a defiant expression; he didn’t want to apologize at all, but his father threatened to cut off his pocket money, so he had no choice but to stand and wait at the base of the Chen Corporation building.

After everything was ready, Duan Fei’s father took out his phone and called Chen Tianming.
