Chapter Index

    The few colleagues who stayed behind at the company were basically not Yan Jun’s confidants; the ones sent on assignments were, because although being on assignment was a bit harder, there was more free time and more perks.

    Among them, besides two old-timers who had been with the company for over a year, the rest were new recruits who had joined in the past few months. The employee turnover rate at the company had been quite high in recent years, especially in a department like planning with high performance pressure. If Chen Feng hadn’t been bound by his contract, he would have definitely left long ago.

    And most people who were not bound by contracts, of course, left whenever they wanted.

    Now, these few colleagues were holding Chen Feng back together, not really to save Yan Jun, but because they didn’t want things to escalate. Of course, they were also afraid that if things escalated, they would be implicated.

    Another reason was that if they stood by and did nothing, Yan Jun would definitely make them pay for it afterward.

    “Alright, let go. I won’t do it again.”

    As Chen Feng said this, he struggled a few times, and the two people holding his arms let go, but there were still two people blocking him in front.

    At this time, Yan Jun, with the help of two others, finally stood up from the ground. He wiped his mouth with his hand, and it was covered in blood, all from his nose. He was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he roared, “Chen Feng! I’m going to kill you!”

    Chen Feng gave him a contemptuous smile and said, “I’ll just stand here and let you kill me. Do you dare?”

    “Fine, fine, fine! Let’s see if I dare!”

    After being crazily attacked by Chen Feng just now, his face was covered in blood, and he had lost all face. Of course, Yan Jun could no longer care about his image as a department manager.

    As Yan Jun gritted his teeth and spoke, he also quickly went over and picked up a keyboard from a desk. He pulled it hard with both hands, but it didn’t come out; the keyboard cable was still connected to the computer.

    Yan Jun, annoyed, pulled hard again with both hands. This time, he finally pulled it out, but he also pulled the computer host to the ground with a clang. Then the monitor fell to the ground with a bang, and the screen was directly scrapped. Many things on the desk also fell to the ground with a clatter.

    It was like he was tearing down the house.

    This was a bit awkward!
    Yan Jun’s previously magnificent, tiger-like momentum immediately deflated. And thinking of Chen Feng’s ferocity just now, his spirit weakened even more.

    Chen Feng, the barefoot one, was not afraid of the one wearing shoes. But now, with a monthly salary of over ten thousand, a car, a house, a family, and a child, he couldn’t fight him to the death.

    But he had already raised the keyboard. To back down halfway like this would be too much of a loss of face.

    Yan Jun immediately gave a quick signal with his eyes to the nearest subordinate, meaning he wanted him to stop him so he could have a way out.

    As a result, this subordinate clearly misunderstood his signal and thought he was telling him not to block the way. He immediately and consciously moved to the side, indicating that he was not blocking him and that he could use the keyboard as a weapon to his heart’s content.

    Yan Jun was dumbfounded. He cursed “idiot” in his heart, gave this newcomer a deep look, and made a mental note of him.

    This newcomer thought he had done the right thing and even gave him a shy smile.

    Yan Jun was so angry his liver hurt. He was in a difficult position, holding the keyboard with both hands.

    Chen Feng saw his cowardice and said sarcastically, “Yan Jun, are your legs getting weak already? A guy like you can only plot and scheme behind people’s backs. When it comes to fighting, you’re just a weakling. With a character like yours, you definitely can’t satisfy your wife. I wonder how many green hats she’ll put on you in the future.”

    “Chen Feng! I’ll f*ck your mother!” Yan Jun was completely enraged, because Chen Feng had really hit a sore spot. He really couldn’t satisfy his wife, and this wasn’t just a recent thing. The fear of his wife cheating on him had always been a source of anxiety for him.

    Chen Feng was bringing up the one thing he didn’t want to talk about.

    “You guys hold him down for me!” Yan Jun roared, directly ordering his subordinates and promising benefits, “As long as you help me hold him down, your bonus next month will be doubled, and I will promote you vigorously in the future.”

    The monthly bonus was a few hundred yuan, which was a very practical benefit. As for the vigorous promotion, although they didn’t quite believe it, it was better than being given trouble.

    Immediately, the few people on the scene looked at each other hesitantly.

    Chen Feng, however, was very calm and said with a smile, “Yan Jun, are you trying to drag people down with you? Others might not know, but we few here know that you’re a guy who practices nepotism, secretly accepts various benefits from clients, and enriches yourself and your few confidants, taking bribes and harming the company’s interests. You’re going to end up in jail sooner or later, and you still want to drag people down with you?”

    “You… don’t you f*cking slander people.”

    Yan Jun was suddenly no longer calm, feeling very guilty. He thought he had been very discreet in his actions over the past two years, and only he and his few confidants knew about it. He didn’t expect Chen Feng to expose him in one sentence.

    “What? Scared? Feeling guilty?”

    Chen Feng looked at him with a playful expression.

    Yan Jun was really scared and guilty. In the past two years, he had taken a lot of benefits from both inside and outside the company. Otherwise, how could he live so comfortably in this provincial capital city of Xiuzhou? It was impossible to rely solely on a salary of over a hundred thousand a year.

    “Chen Feng, stop your damn baseless accusations. I’m an upright person. Do you think anyone will believe you just by saying a few words to frame me?”

    Although Yan Jun said this, he had already lowered the keyboard he was holding with both hands and never mentioned asking his subordinates to hold Chen Feng down again.

    Chen Feng sneered, “Have you forgotten that I was also a deputy manager? Your little tricks might work to deceive those above and below, but you can’t hide them from someone who has been in your position. Understand?”

    Hearing Chen Feng’s words, Yan Jun’s head buzzed again. He knew his own business. He had indeed skimmed a lot of oil in the past two years.

    For example, a project proposal was originally quoted at 1 million, but he took a 100,000 yuan benefit from the client and only quoted 800,000, telling the company that the client was very good at bargaining. This was clearly harming the company’s interests.

    Another example was collaborating with the project manager of the client company. The project proposal could have been quoted at 1 million, but the project manager from the client company wanted a kickback, so they directly quoted 1.5 million, and he could get at least a few tens of thousands in benefits.

    These two methods were the most common ways of operating and could be considered unwritten rules of the workplace. There were also some more complex ways to skim oil.

    In short, in the past two years, his annual gray income was several times his basic salary.

    Of course, these things were all crimes, and if caught, he would definitely go to jail. Although he believed he wouldn’t be caught with evidence, he really didn’t dare to take the risk.

    Especially if an insider like Chen Feng exposed him, he would definitely be in deep trouble.

    “Chen Feng, for the sake of you having mentored me back then, let’s just forget about today’s matter. Consider it me repaying your kindness from back then. As for the bonus and performance, I won’t make things difficult for you anymore. This matter ends here. That’s it.”

    Yan Jun was still very decisive and immediately chose to compromise temporarily. Escalating the situation now would do him no good at all.

    It was better to stabilize Chen Feng first and then find a way to deal with him privately later.

    Of course, Chen Feng didn’t want to let him off so easily. They had already torn off all pretenses, so what was there to be polite about?

    Besides, although he had just beaten up Yan Jun, the anger that had been pent up in his heart for two years had not completely dissipated.

    “Wait!”

    “Wait!”

    Two voices sounded at the same time. Chen Feng looked at the door in surprise and saw the company’s general manager, Director Cao, along with several other company executives, surrounding a woman in her thirties with a sharp aura, walking in.

    Director Cao’s face was very ugly. His already somewhat dark skin was even darker now.
