Qian Liang's words were quite disrespectful, immediately making Zhou Ming feel embarrassed, and he didn't know how to retract his outstretched hand.
Then Qian Liang put down the playing cards in his hand, stood up, flicked the ash off his clothes, and said softly to Lu Yuan, "We have a rule here, I don't know if Zhou Ming told you, that new employees have to work a week in a row. So from today until next week, you will be on duty. If there's nothing else, go to work!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately put down the blanket in his hand, then looked up at Zhou Ming. A look of panic appeared in Zhou Ming's eyes, but he didn't say anything.
So Lu Yuan had no choice but to turn to Qian Liang and ask, "What do you mean by this shift? Is it a week of day shifts or a week of night shifts?"
Qian Liang's lips curled slightly, then he sneered and said, "There's no such thing as a day shift or a night shift. One shift means working a full day, from day to night, don't you understand? Starting today, it's your shift for the next week! And our Third Team's jurisdiction is right here on Fifth Avenue. Pick up your uniform and go to work!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan felt a chill run down his spine. The other party was clearly trying to make things difficult for him. He immediately stretched and asked, "How is overtime pay calculated?"
"And what overtime pay? It's all for our own team's work, why would we need overtime pay!"
At this point, Qian Liang's tone became somewhat coercive. Zhou Ming, seeing this, knew that an explosion was about to occur, so he quickly grabbed Lu Yuan's arm and said, "Lu Yuan, how about one week? I'll find someone to help you finish this week's work!"
Qian Liang snorted coldly: "I didn't realize Zhou Ming was so loyal! Did you take some benefits from him?"
Zhou Ming gave an awkward laugh: "What's the benefit? They're all brothers, I'll help them out if I can!"
"Alright, as for how to get things done later, you take him to familiarize himself with the work area, and get the uniform and stuff. I'll take care of the rest!"
Zhou Ming nodded immediately.
At this moment, Lu Yuan suddenly spoke up and said, "Sorry, I can't take this shift!"
The room fell silent immediately upon hearing this.
Qian Liang frowned, then tilted his head and looked at Lu Yuan, asking, "Other newcomers can get into this class, so why is it so hard for you to carry it out?"
"I'm not in good health, I can't work the night shift!"
Qian Liang snorted and said, "It's okay if you're not feeling well. I'll prepare some tonics for you later. You'll still go to work as usual. There's no way you can escape this shift!"
"I told you, I can't take this shift, and no one can change that!" Lu Yuan said with a slight smile.
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, Qian Liang's explosive temper flared up immediately. His face darkened, and he pointed at Lu Yuan's nose, shouting angrily, "You little brat, are you deliberately trying to cause trouble? Everyone else can do it, why can't you? Do you have some kind of background or status?!"
The room instantly filled with a foul atmosphere. Seeing the two about to fight, Zhou Ming immediately stepped forward to stop Lu Yuan, then smiled and said to Qian Liang, "Brother Qian, we're all in the same boat, there's no need to be so ruthless to your own brother, let's talk this out!... Or..."
However, before Zhou Ming could finish speaking, Qian Liang swung his fist and punched the other man in the stomach.
"Who the hell do you think you are, daring to talk to me like that? Do I need you to teach me?!"
Zhou Ming was punched to the ground, clutching his stomach as he staggered to his feet, a hint of fear in his eyes, but he didn't dare utter another sound. He could only stand there and watch this extremely awkward scene unfold.
"Kid, you're already looking for trouble as soon as you arrive. I don't think you're planning to stay here peacefully. Don't you know that I'm a big shot around here? A newbie just arrived and you dare to act so arrogantly? Let me tell you, if you want to continue working in this class, you'd better listen to my orders!"
Lu Yuan still had a slight smile on his face. He subtly blocked Zhou Ming behind him and said to Qian Liang, "Let me tell you, I really can't take this shift!"
Seeing that his authority was being disregarded, Qian Liang was so angry that he burst out laughing: "You little brat, do you have connections or something? Tell me, I want to see what kind of person you are, daring to talk to me like that!"
After saying that, he reached out to grab Lu Yuan's shoulder, but Lu Yuan slapped his arm away.
"I'm telling you, don't touch me!"
"Oh, you're pretty tough, aren't you? Don't touch me, what's wrong with you? I'm going to touch you anyway! So what!"
After saying that, Qian Liang swung his fist and smashed it towards Lu Yuan's face.
Lu Yuan remained calm, reaching forward to grab Qian Liang's arm, then using his other hand to grab Qian Liang's other fist that was about to launch a sneak attack, clenching it tightly in his palm.
A crisp "crack" sound came from Qian Liang's arm.
Qian Liang's body went limp immediately, and he collapsed to the ground, clutching his arms.
"Damn it! You dare fight back! Beat him up!"
Qian Liang clutched his arm, cried out in pain, and then shouted loudly at the team members next to him.
The people next to him immediately dropped what they were holding and pounced on Lu Yuan. However, Lu Yuan dodged around like an eel, and all their punches and kicks missed their mark.
