Chapter 29: Force

Shen Zhichu stared at the troublemaker calmly, his expression neither hot nor cold, but it made people feel creepy.

The troublemaker was frightened by his gaze and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, but he still said calmly: "You...what are you looking at! I tell you, this matter is not over today!"

Shen Zhichu raised his lips slightly, revealing a mocking smile: "Really? Since you are so confident, why don't we go to the police to seek justice?"

The troublemaker immediately wilted. He knew Shen Zhichu's strength. To be able to open such a top-notch club, he must have acquaintances in both the black and white worlds. He certainly wouldn't be so stupid.

"Are you scared?" Shen Zhichu raised his chin contemptuously.

The troublemaker admitted: "Boss Shen, it is indeed my fault today. I am in a bad mood today. Please forgive me."

Shen Zhichu looked at his hand and punched the troublemaker in the face without warning.

The troublemaker fell to the ground after being hit by the punch, with a trickle of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at Shen Zhichu with horror, having never expected that the other party would suddenly attack him.

"Get lost." Shen Zhichu said coldly.

The troublemaker scrambled out of the club.

Lin Du and Qin Chang snuggled together. They looked at Shen Zhichu timidly, fearing that he would hit them with his next punch.

Shen Zhichu wiped his hands and sat back in his chair. His expression returned to normal, but his tone was particularly cold: "How dare you two fight with the guests."

Lin Du was stunned. He knew Shen Zhichu would not let them off. After all, on his first day at work, he had said that no conflict with the guests was allowed.

Qin Chang stepped forward and stood in front of Lin Du: "Boss, this is my fault, I..."

"No...it's my fault. I didn't satisfy the guests. It has nothing to do with Qin Chang." Lin Du swallowed. He was very scared, but he didn't want to implicate Qin Chang.

You have to take responsibility for your own mistakes.

Shen Zhichu sneered, "Are you pretending to be a brother in front of me?"

"......." Lin Du trembled uncontrollably. His body was already about to collapse, but now he didn't even have the qualifications to fall down. "No, boss, it's really my fault. Please punish me."

"Lin Du!" Qin Chang pulled Lin Du and told him not to speak.

Lin Du pushed Qin Chang behind him, standing in front with his thin body. Although it looked ridiculous, he had to do it.

"I won't make it difficult for you. For Chu Xu's sake, you can go." Shen Zhichu found the contract and said, "I'm not a profiteer. I'll pay you your salary."

Lin Du was startled, tears were about to fall. He didn't want to cry to show weakness, he really couldn't control his tears.

I pinched my fingers tightly, but I didn't feel any pain at all.

There was just a glimmer of hope in life, but with this departure, life is plunged into trouble again.

"Boss, can you give me another chance?" Lin Du begged, wiping away his tears fiercely.

"Hold away your tears. Tears are the least valuable thing to me." Shen Zhichu's face was stern, without any emotion.

"No... No, boss, I don't want to cry, I just can't stop crying." Lin Du wiped away the tears with trembling hands.

Qin Chang frowned with distress. Lin Du was clearly trembling so much that his voice had lost its tone, but he still persisted. He knew how important this job was to him.

But in front of this group of powers, their pleas are nothing more than the struggle of ants.

Lin Du gritted his teeth and tried hard not to let his tears flow. He knew that he must look very ugly now, but he still refused to give up.

"Boss, please give me another chance. I promise I won't make any mistakes again." Lin Du pleaded again.

Shen Zhichu glanced at him, not moved at all. There were too many pitiful people in the world, and he was not a philanthropist, so he couldn't care so much.

He has been given a chance, but he didn't know how to cherish it. He can't blame anyone else.

Shen Zhichu waved his hand, signaling them to go out.

Lin Du knew that no matter how much he begged, Shen Zhichu would not change his mind: "Boss, I can leave. Can you please leave Qin Chang here? He is innocent."

Qin Chang frowned and clenched his fists in pain.

Shen Zhichu narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his chin. He didn't expect that Lin Du looked so weak, but was so responsible.

The door opened and Chu Xu walked in.

Everyone's eyes fell on him. He was still gentle and elegant. He always had a faint smile on his face, giving people a very close feeling. But his unique nobleness made people dare not be too presumptuous.

"Injured?" Chu Xu walked to Lin Du's side, his expression solemn, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"No need." Lin Du lowered his head, feeling a little guilty towards Chu Xu.

He pleaded with Shen Zhichu for me to stay, but I had only been working for two days when such a big thing happened.

Chu Xu sighed, turned around and sat down on the sofa.

Shen Zhichu hasn't looked at anyone since Chu Xu came in.

"I heard it when I came in just now. This matter cannot be blamed entirely on Lin Du. If someone wants to make trouble deliberately, no one can stop them." Chu Xu looked at Shen Zhichu, "As a boss, you failed to protect your employees and you fired them. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if the news gets out?"

Shen Zhichu chuckled and didn't refute. His eyes were still gentle: "You guys should go out and work first."

Lin Du and Qin Chang looked at each other, nodded, and walked out.

Shen Zhichu walked over to Chu Xu and sat down, raising his eyebrows slightly: "Is it really okay to embarrass me in front of my employees like this?"

"Sorry, I'm a straight shooter."

Shen Zhichu chuckled and slowly approached: "It's more than just straight, it's poisonous."

"Okay, I'm out." Chu Xu dodged.

Shen Zhichu pulled him back to his side and pressed him down: "What are you hiding from?"

"Let go!" Chu Xu turned his face away, his superior jawline was very charming.

"Chu Xu, do we really have to do this?"

"What?" Chu Xu smiled slightly, without any emotion.

Shen Zhichu lowered his eyes and looked into Chu Xu's, his eyes were terribly cold. Normally, he could do anything, but as long as it came to their feelings, he would always put on a cold expression.

"You know you can't get away if I want to."

Chu Xu frowned and looked at Shen Zhichu coldly: "Boss Shen likes to force things?"

A complicated look flashed across Shen Zhichu's eyes, and he ruffled Chu Xu's hair: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Chu Xu found Lin Du and asked, "Is the injury really not a big deal?"

Lin Du nodded, his voice a little hoarse: "I'm sorry to disappoint you."

Chu Xu chuckled and patted Lin Du on the shoulder: "It's okay, work hard and take care of yourself. I'm leaving first."

Qin Chang looked at Chu Xu's back and sighed, "Mr. Chu is indeed the one with face. I have never seen anyone dare to speak to the boss like this."

"Do you know Chu Xu's background?" Qin Chang nudged Lin Du who was in a daze.

"have no idea."

"I'm not really sure, but I heard that his ancestors were doctors and his grandfather was a famous Chinese medicine doctor. It is said that many dignitaries now specifically ask his grandfather to treat their illnesses."

Lin Du nodded, and couldn't help but be a little curious, "Then do you know how Chu Xu and the boss knew each other?"

"It seems like the two families are old friends."

"Is that so?" Lin Du sighed. He knew that he was able to stay this time because of Chu Xu.

I sighed helplessly. I hated owing favors to others the most, but I always owed them.

In the private room, Gu Lianchi had just finished a thrilling battle and was sitting back on the sofa with a cigarette in his mouth.

Su Wenlang sat astride him and helped him light the fire.
