Hearing this, Kai's face instantly darkened. He stared at the man with a gloomy expression.
"Whose side are you on, his or mine?"
Seeing this, the man didn't dare to delay any longer. "Boss, I'm on your side."
After stammering this out, he quickly left the spot.
...
Meanwhile, in Ming'an Group.
"Here are the records of your so - called sister."
Wei Jianguo threw all the records from when they adopted 'Chen Qingmian' onto Chen Yu'an's desk.
Tan Si, who was standing beside them, quickly stepped forward to organize the records and placed them in front of Chen Yu'an one by one.
Wei Jianguo sprawled on the sofa, putting his feet on the coffee table. He showed no sign of leaving.
Chen Yu'an lifted his eyes and looked at him.
Meeting his gaze and seeing his cold expression, Wei Jianguo inexplicably felt a bit scared. He retracted his feet awkwardly.
Then he raised his voice deliberately and shouted at Chen Yu'an.
"What are you looking at? You want the records without paying?"
Chen Yu'an withdrew his gaze, lowered his head to look through the records in his hand, and said nothing.
Seeing this, Wei Jianguo swallowed nervously. He couldn't figure out his son at all now and didn't dare to take any further actions.
He was afraid that if he pushed him too far, his son would do something outrageous.
"Tell the finance department to transfer 20,000 yuan to Mr. Wei's account."
Chen Yu'an's voice suddenly rang out again.
Hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Wei Jianguo's face. "Only 20,000 yuan?!"
"Chen Yu'an, are you fucking treating me like a beggar? I'm your father!"
Wei Jianguo was so angry that he cursed at him.
Then he suddenly seemed to think of something. "Or do you think that woman's stuff is only worth this much?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yu'an's hand that was flipping through the records clearly paused.
Wei Jianguo sneered in his heart.
His useless son had actually gone to such an extent for a woman. It was really ridiculous.
"I want two million."
Wei Jianguo directly asked for an exorbitant amount.
Hearing this, Tan Si, who was standing beside them, couldn't help but frown.
"Mr. Wei, sir's money doesn't come easily. If you keep asking for such exorbitant amounts and people find out, it won't look good."
Wei Jianguo didn't expect to be lectured by a servant. He stepped forward in a few strides and slapped Tan Si hard across the face.
He pointed at Tan Si's nose and cursed.
"This slap is to let you know your place. You don't even know who you are and you dare to lecture me!"
Although Wei Jianguo was old, he was still quite strong.
Tan Si didn't dodge and took the slap head - on. Immediately, the left side of his face started to swell up visibly.
"Since your master can't teach you, I'll teach you myself!"
After saying that, Wei Jianguo raised his other hand and was about to slap again.
Just as his hand reached halfway, his wrist was suddenly tightly grasped by a strong hand.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.
He thought it was Tan Si who dared to fight back. When he turned his head, he noticed that it was Chen Yu'an who was holding his wrist.
"Wei Jianguo, this is not the place for you to throw a tantrum. If you want to cause trouble, get out of here."
After saying that, he gave a hard jerk.
Wei Jianguo lost his balance and staggered back several steps.
Before he could steady himself, Chen Yu'an's voice rang out again.
"Slap him back."
He said to Tan Si.
Tan Si was stunned for a moment. "Huh?"
Slap him back...
Did he mean for him to slap Wei Jianguo?
Tan Si looked embarrassed. No matter how bad the father - son relationship between the two was, they were still father and son. He couldn't bring himself to hit his boss's father.
"I said, slap him back. Didn't you hear me?"
He did hear, but he didn't dare!
"I'll only say it one last time."
"Slap him back."
Seeing Chen Yu'an's serious expression, Wei Jianguo knew he wasn't joking. His eyes darted nervously between the two of them.
"If you dare to hit your father, it's disrespectful! You'll go to hell for this, do you know that?!"
Tan Si knew Chen Yu'an too well. He never repeated the same thing three times.
He had to slap him back whether he wanted to or not.
Tan Si glanced at Wei Jianguo in the distance, then respectfully nodded at Chen Yu'an. "Yes, sir."
The next second, a crisp 'slap!' echoed in the quiet office.
Tan Si only used 30% of his strength, but Wei Jianguo couldn't bear the slap from such a young and strong man.
He covered half of his face and pointed at Chen Yu'an menacingly. "Good, good, good! Chen Yu'an, I won't forget today's incident. I'll make you pay for it sooner or later!"
There was no much expression on Chen Yu'an's face. He simply said a few words.
"I'll be waiting."
Wei Jianguo was so angry that he couldn't even hold the doorknob properly. In the end, Tan Si opened the door for him.
After the man left, Chen Yu'an's gaze fell on Tan Si.
"Why didn't you fight back just now?"
Tan Si lowered his head and told the truth. "Mr. Wei is your father. I didn't dare."
Hearing this, Chen Yu'an's face darkened slightly. "Remember, I'm the one who pays your salary. Other than me, you don't need to consider any interpersonal relationships. As long as someone touches your interests, don't hesitate when it's time to take action."
This was the first time Chen Yu'an had said such things to him.
Tan Si nodded half - understandingly.
As long as it was Chen Yu'an's order, he would definitely follow it. Why did Chen Yu'an suddenly say these things to him today?
Before Tan Si could think further, Chen Yu'an's voice rang out in his ear again.
"How's the situation at Qingyuan now?"
"The construction materials have arrived. The work will start tomorrow."
Tan Si reported the situation at Qingyuan in detail.
After Chen Yu'an flattened that area before, he planned to turn it into a wetland park.
He had been so busy recently that he almost forgot about Qingyuan.
If the construction didn't start soon, the smell of An Ya's body might start to spread before long.
Hearing that the construction was about to start, Chen Yu'an heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. "What's the current situation of the Wen family?"
"Wen Yunxu was sent to Africa. Now Wen Yunzhe is taking over. As for Wen Yuxuan... it seems that she has been grounded by Wen Yaohua. There's not much news about her for the time being."
Hearing the name Wen Yunzhe, Chen Yu'an thought for a while and then asked, "Wen Yunzhe? Is it the Wen Yunzhe who used to be under Commander Chi?"
"Yes."
Wen Yunzhe was different from the others in the Wen family. As far as he knew, this man was upright. Due to his long - term service in the army, he was also decisive and straightforward in his actions.
Most importantly, he didn't seem to like his younger sister very much.
Perhaps, he could try to contact Wen Yunzhe now.
Chen Yu'an withdrew his thoughts and looked at Tan Si beside him.
"Got it. You can go out first."
"Yes, sir."
Tan Si gently closed the door. Chen Yu'an stared at the closed office door, his eyes as dark as the deep sea.
