Chapter 4 - Action

Thinking of this, she made up her mind and stood up, saying, “Alright, I’ll take you to the security department to find those three security guards.”

“Haha, that’s more like it!” Ye Fan laughed heartily, striding out of the office following Lu Xiaoman to the security department in search of Sky Wolf Security Company’s three guards.

The security department was on the third floor.

Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman took the elevator to the third floor and once they exited, Lu Xiaoman led the way, saying, “They’re usually in office 308.”

Ye Fan nodded and marched towards office 308.

Halfway there, they were met by a middle-aged man in a security uniform coming towards them.

The middle-aged man had a burly stature, a straight back, and forceful steps, all of which suggested he had once been a soldier.

However, the man no longer carried the imposing air of a soldier, his head hung slightly, dark circles under his eyes, his brows knitted tightly together, clearly preoccupied with heavy thoughts.

When he saw Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman approaching, he gathered some energy and managed to muster a smile, greeting, “Xiao Lu.”

“Captain Zhao,” Lu Xiaoman quickened her pace to meet him and replied.

“Are you here to persuade those three?” asked Zhao Gang.

Lu Xiaoman nodded.

At that moment, Ye Fan walked up beside Lu Xiaoman and gave Zhao Gang a glance.

“Who is this…” Zhao Gang asked Lu Xiaoman.

Lu Xiaoman quickly introduced, “This is Ye Fan from our human resources department.

Ye Fan, this is Captain Zhao Gang, the head of the security department.”

“Hello, Captain Zhao,” greeted Ye Fan.

Zhao Gang nodded in response, “Hello, Ye Fan.”

After greeting Ye Fan, Zhao Gang continued to speak to Lu Xiaoman, “You don’t need to work on the minds of those three; they can’t decide anything.

The key lies with Sky Wolf Security Company.”

“Sigh, as if I didn’t know.

But the Sky Wolf Security Company is like a den of thieves, and I really dare not enter.

So, I can only try with those three.” Lu Xiaoman sighed and added, “By the way, have you guys found a way to get a message up through your connections?”

“No, sigh—” Zhao Gang shook his head and sighed deeply.

He knew he, Zhao Gang, bore a significant responsibility in the matter of bringing the wolf into the house.

If he could no longer cover it up, and the company’s senior management investigated, he would no longer be able to hold his position as captain.

He then said, “Sky Wolf Security Company has massive influence; I’ve heard they’re even protected by someone from the police department at the city level.

These past few days, I’ve found out that quite a few large companies have been forced to pay protection fees to Sky Wolf Security Company, including Yuhua Group and Sky Sun Group.”

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoman couldn’t help but inhale sharply, her beautiful face turning two shades paler, feeling even less confident about persuading Sky Wolf Security Company.

“Are the Yuhua Group and Sky Sun Group very powerful?” Ye Fan interjected.

He had recently arrived in Hua Hai and was unfamiliar with the business ecosystem of the city.

“Of course, they’re powerful,” asserted Zhao Gang, “Yuhua Group and Sky Sun Group are the leading enterprises in the Qingyang and Xinyang districts of Hua Hai City.

They have been in operation for many years, not only with strong financial resources but also with deep-rooted connections.

Our Emali Group, although a listed company, is still a newcomer, and in terms of financial resources and foundations, we can’t compare with Yuhua Group and Sky Sun Group.”

Then, he sighed again and said, “Even if the group’s senior management knows about it, they probably can’t do anything.

Sky Wolf Security Company has already decided to collect a protection fee from our group.”

He paused, then revealed, “Perhaps you don’t know, but behind Sky Wolf Security Company is the Green Wolf Gang.”

“Ah!” Lu Xiaoman couldn’t help but cry out in fear, stepping back two steps while her eyes filled with dread.

“What’s wrong?

Is the Green Wolf Gang that terrifying?” Ye Fan asked, frowning.

“Extremely terrifying,” Zhao Gang said.

“The Green Wolf Gang is one of the four major underground organizations in Hua Hai City, with Qingyang District and Xinyang District under their control.

The Green Wolf Gang has always been brutal, and no one dares to offend them; even the police have to be extremely cautious.”

Fearfully, Lu Xiaoman said, “Last year, my cousin had a conflict with someone from the Green Wolf Gang because his girlfriend was harassed. S~eaʀᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Unexpectedly, on the third day, my cousin was killed by people from the Green Wolf Gang, and his girlfriend was gang-raped by them.

My aunt and uncle were devastated, they reported to the police, but the police couldn’t find any evidence against the Green Wolf Gang, and the case remains unsolved to this day.”

“Ye Fan, if we can’t complete the task, I’ll just resign.

You must not provoke the Green Wolf Gang,” Lu Xiaoman pleaded.

“How can that be?

A sword drawn must not return bloodless!” proclaimed Ye Fan, stepping boldly towards office 308.

Zhao Gang was shocked, and quickly asked Lu Xiaoman, “What does he mean?”

“He said he’s going to throw those three men out,” Lu Xiaoman replied hastily, as she anxiously chased after Ye Fan, trying to stop him.

Zhao Gang’s face changed drastically too, and he immediately took off after Ye Fan while shouting loudly, “Ye Fan, don’t be reckless!”

But they had all been too late.

Ye Fan took two paces in three strides to office 308, and immediately kicked open the office door with a foot.

Bang!

The office door was kicked open, and Ye Fan saw three astonished and arrogant ugly faces inside.

His gaze swept over the room, only to see a complete mess.

Several office desks were pushed together, cluttered with over a dozen beer bottles and various leftovers, the tabletops stained with grease.

The three men from Sky Wolf Security Company were sitting shirtless on their chairs, legs crossed on the desks, holding chicken drumsticks or kebabs in their hands.

Seeing this, Ye Fan’s eyes turned icy, and a murderous intent suddenly rose within him.

Damn, daring to run wild in my wife’s company!

“Kid, tired of living, huh?

Daring to disturb your grandpas here!” one of the Sky Wolf security guards reacted, flew into a rage, jumped off his chair, and arrogantly yelled, slapping the table.

The other two Sky Wolf security guards also stood up, their expressions arrogant and their gaze directed menacingly at Ye Fan.

Ye Fan clenched his fists, ready to knock down these three pieces of trash, when Lu Xiaoman and Zhao Gang finally caught up.

Lu Xiaoman grabbed Ye Fan and started pulling him out while urgently apologizing to the three Sky Wolf guards, “Sorry, sorry, he walked into the wrong office.”

“Brother Cheng, Brother Jie, Brother Bao, I really apologize.

He just joined the company today and walked into the wrong office.

Please continue, we won’t bother you,” Zhao Gang also said with a sheepish smile.

At the same time, he tried to drag Ye Fan out as well.

However, no matter how hard Lu Xiaoman and Zhao Gang tried, as if using all their might, Ye Fan didn’t budge an inch.

“Hold on!” One of the security guards, who was called Brother Jie, arrogantly shouted, “You think a simple sorry is enough after disrupting our drinking pleasure?”

“Heh heh, definitely not, certainly not.” Zhao Gang, a tall and stern man, was now bowing and chuckling, “I’ll host lunch, and I hope Brother Cheng, Brother Jie, and Brother Bao could do me the honor of joining for a meal, okay?”

Brother Jie arrogantly said, “Honor my ass!”

“You!” he pointed aggressively at Lu Xiaoman, “Pretty girl, you stay and drink with the brothers, and we’ll generously overlook this time!”

As he spoke, he reached out to grab Lu Xiaoman’s hand.

Just as he was about to grab Lu Xiaoman’s fair, delicate hand, suddenly, he felt his wrist clamped down on by an iron vice, unable to move even slightly.

He looked up in panic, only to realize Ye Fan had grabbed his hand.

As he tried to speak arrogantly and threaten again, his arm was hit with a sharp pain, and a “crack” sound of bones breaking was heard.

Ah—

Brother Jie couldn’t help but scream out loud.

Immediately after, Ye Fan fiercely kicked straight into Brother Jie’s stomach.

Brother Jie’s screams came to an abrupt halt, and his entire body was kicked several meters away, slamming forcefully against the wall and falling to the ground, unable to get up again.

The other two Sky Wolf security guards didn’t expect Ye Fan to suddenly make a move, and by the time they reacted, their companion Brother Jie had already been sent flying by Ye Fan.

They quickly grabbed empty beer bottles and swung them at Ye Fan while yelling fiercely with murderous faces, “Dare to hurt our brother, die!”

The ferocious and brutal aura frightened Lu Xiaoman into covering her face with her hands and screaming in panic.

When Lu Xiaoman removed her hands that had been tightly pressed against her pretty face, she found that all three Sky Wolf security guards were lying on the ground, moaning from severe injuries.

Looking back at Ye Fan, he stood in the center of the office, tall and proud, with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened.

“This is bad, Ye Fan, you’ve caused a huge problem,” Zhao Gang collapsed on the floor, speaking with a face so pale it was devoid of any color, “We’ve hit their people, once the Green Wolf gang retaliates, we won’t die but we’ll be skinned!”

Lu Xiaoman was also filled with fear.

Ye Fan turned around and came back with a relaxed smile, unconcerned, “It’s just a shady gang.

What’s there to fear?

I’ll go check out their lair right now to see what they can do to me!”

He bent down and picked up the three Sky Wolf security guards as effortlessly as an eagle catching chicks and said to Lu Xiaoman, “Sister Xiaoman, lead the way.

We’re going to the Sky Wolf Security Company.”

He decided to throw the three Sky Wolf security company trash out of the building, not satisfied with just beating them until they couldn’t get up; they had to be dumped outside the group’s perimeter to be done with them.
