If Gao Fei weren't someone he knew all too well, he would have thought Gao Fei had some kind of background he didn't know about, otherwise where would he get such audacity?
"Director, I know I was wrong. I will never do it again. Please help me. Please help me this once, out of consideration for our past relationship."
"Please plead with the minister, and I promise I will never cause trouble for Comrade Li again. I will avoid him whenever I see him, and I will treat him like royalty from now on."
Gao Fei felt uneasy after hearing what Director Chen said. He thought about what he had said to the minister, and his face turned ashen.
"You haven't listened to a single word I've said. Help you? What can I do to help you? The problem isn't with the minister, it's with Comrade Li."
"Instead of begging me, you should beg Comrade Li. If he is willing to forgive you, he can put in a good word for you with the minister. That would be better than anything else."
Director Chen glared at the man, annoyed. If it weren't for the fact that he had never caused him any trouble before...
There was something he was ashamed of, and he didn't want to say another word to him.
"I...I..." Gao Fei felt even worse at the thought of having to beg Li Baichuan. He could imagine how Li Baichuan would mock him.
Thinking of the strange looks others were giving him, he knew that if he begged Li Baichuan, he might keep his job, but he would have to live with his head down in the transport team from then on.
I just can't accept the thought of that scene.
"What? You don't want to go? Then there's nothing I can do for you." Director Chen could tell what he was thinking just by looking at him like that.
It depends on whether he chooses to save face or work. In any case, he won't go to the minister, otherwise he'll have to go back and rest too.
"Director, I'll go, I'll go right now." Gao Fei saw that the director was ignoring him, and knew that this was his only way out.
He doesn't dare to imagine what his future will be like if he loses his job.
"Whatever you want, just think things through before you do anything, and make sure your apology is sincere. Nobody's stupid."
Director Chen didn't even look up, and didn't care what Gao Fei thought. He had already given him enough pointers.
He couldn't help with anything else, and it was even more impossible for him to go along with pleading his case; wouldn't that be a clear indication that he was siding with Gao Fei?
Gao Fei left the director's office and walked with difficulty toward the transportation team.
My heart went from anger to frustration to panic, and now all that's left is helplessness.
He knew he couldn't lose his job; nothing else mattered compared to that.
When he pushed open the door of the transport team, all the drivers were there. Gao Fei saw their gazes, turned away, and took a deep breath.
Why are they all here? Is there no work today? I thought they finished moving everything this morning and came back for lunch before noon. Now they're just slacking off with nothing to do.
Gao Fei stopped looking at these people and looked up to find Li Baichuan.
"Brother Chuan, I think you drive more steadily than me." Bian Cheng and Li Baichuan were practicing driving in the parking area behind the transport team.
The area here is very open, and apart from drivers, no one usually comes here. Biancheng originally wanted to teach people carefully, but he didn't expect that the other person drove much more steadily than him.
He couldn't help but think back to when he first arrived, it took him half a month to learn before he dared to touch the steering wheel, and it was almost two months later before he actually drove on the road.
Everyone is like this; learning and actually driving are two different things. When he actually drove on the road, his legs were shaking.
"I've practiced at home." Li Baichuan wasn't swayed by his words; he knew his own limitations.
His wife also said that driving requires careful attention and thorough learning; knowing how to drive doesn't mean you're a good driver.
"Anyway, you learn very quickly, so you just need to practice more." Bian Cheng thought about his identity, and realized that his family must have a car assigned to him.
Those guards were much more skilled than him; no wonder Brother Chuan learned so quickly.
“Hmm.” Even though Li Baichuan wasn’t much of a talker, he still responded to every single one of his questions.
Biancheng also noticed this. He felt that Brother Chuan must have considered him a brother. Everyone said that Brother Chuan was arrogant, but he didn't think so.
If he had Brother Chuan's status, he could be even more arrogant; Brother Chuan is already quite low-key.
Brother Chuan actually has a very good personality; look how kind and gentle he is.
Li Baichuan practiced for another round, then turned around and saw Biancheng's bright, sparkling eyes.
"..."
"Comrade Li, I have something to say to you." Just as Li Baichuan was about to say something, he was interrupted by Gao Fei, who was standing under the car.
"What do you want now? You want to fight again? Come on, I'll fight you. If you've got the guts, hit me." Biancheng exploded the moment he saw Gao Fei.
This scoundrel is incredibly arrogant and always tries to cause trouble for Brother Chuan. Since Brother Chuan treats him like a brother, he'll definitely protect him.
He had made up his mind: if Gao Fei dared to hit him, he would immediately lie down and then have someone call his father.
Gao Fei: "..." His bellyful of apologies was interrupted.
Li Baichuan: "..." His wife said he should get along well with people, but right now he really didn't want to be with this person.
"I'm not here to fight, I'm here to apologize." Gao Fei had no temper left.
Not to mention Li Baichuan, even Biancheng couldn't afford to offend him. This guy used to be a tyrant in their transport team.
He'd complain at the slightest disagreement, or he'd blame his dad for this or that.
He just couldn't understand why, when it was the same thing to file a complaint, it was possible in Biancheng but not in him.
Ultimately, it all comes down to the fact that he has no background; he's just an ordinary person. How can he compare to these privileged children from high-ranking families?
If... if he had the chance, he could also become a person of high status, wouldn't he not have to suffer such injustice today?
"Oh? An apology?" Bian Cheng chuckled and hurriedly got out of the car. Li Baichuan remained seated in the driver's seat, seemingly uninterested in Gao Fei's words.
"Comrade Li, it was my fault in the canteen at noon. I shouldn't have said those things. I hope you can forgive me."
Having come this far, having already lost face enough, Gao Fei felt that a little more wouldn't make a difference, and he said it very decisively.
"Hmph, you've already said what you wanted to say, and now you think you can just say I was wrong?" Biancheng retorted.
"Comrade Li hit me too. If you're still not satisfied, you can hit me a few more times. I won't say a word." Gao Fei looked at the person in the car and spoke very sincerely.
Biancheng then remembered that although the man had spoken rudely, it seemed that his brother Chuan had retaliated by beating him up.
Why did this person end up apologizing? What should he have said?
Biancheng also looked at Li Baichuan. Although he also felt that Gao Fei deserved to be beaten, Brother Chuan hadn't suffered any loss in this matter, and whether or not to forgive him was up to Brother Chuan himself.
"No need to apologize, I already fought back anyway," Li Baichuan replied sincerely.
Gao Fei: "..."
