"Have you forgotten the lesson from last time? You're still acting so impulsively. It's hard to guard against a villain. Since you know he's not right, why are you going to confront him so directly? Aren't you just handing him leverage?"
"Don't underestimate anyone. No matter how powerful your family is, they can't protect you all the time. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered."
Li Baichuan looked at Bian Cheng as he turned around and looked at him seriously, without even realizing that there was concern in his tone.
"Brother Chuan, I was just angry with him, so I wanted to strike first." Bian Cheng's voice trailed off as he spoke.
"Don't be impulsive, find out more about him first." Li Baichuan hadn't taken Yu Qingfeng seriously at all.
Hearing what Biancheng said and seeing his look of wanting to settle scores, she still offered him a safe solution.
"Okay, Brother Chuan, I'll listen to you. I'll go find out where this thing came from first."
When Biancheng heard what his brother Chuan said, he thought it made sense. Isn't there a saying that goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated"?
Yu Qingfeng had no idea that he had made a few nice remarks and that Biancheng had taken notice of him. He had seen clearly how the two of them interacted.
Biancheng kept talking to the people, while Li Baichuan basically ignored them. Later, Biancheng said something that made the man start scolding him.
Biancheng was bowing and scraping, clearly apologizing. He recalled how Biancheng had ignored him when they spoke that morning.
Wouldn't he be just like him, fawning over people? Yu Qingfeng thought about what it would be like if he and Li Baichuan became good brothers.
Wouldn't the border town fawn over him then? He became even more determined in his mind.
He thought his approach would be more than enough for Li Baichuan, but to his surprise, he barely spoke a few words to anyone in the following days.
The border town treated him like a wolf, and so did Li Baichuan, who looked at him with disdain.
With the Department of Transportation about to have its holiday, their relationship has become worse than it was at the beginning, let alone closer.
Yu Qingfeng got anxious. He saw the people putting engine oil on the car and, unwilling to give up, went over there.
"Comrade Li, you've worked hard. I've prepared some hot water for you. Why don't you come and wash your hands? I'll help you with these things."
Yu Qingfeng wore a warm smile, appearing eager to help others.
"Comrade Yu, I don't need your help. We are all drivers, and everyone has their own job. You just need to do your job well."
"I prefer quiet, so please don't keep following me. We're not familiar with each other." Li Baichuan could tell that this person was trying to curry favor with him.
When the border town was chattering away, he only felt helpless. He was simple-minded and comfortable to be around.
No matter how well Yu Qingfeng disguised himself, his eyes were full of calculation. He could tell a person's good and evil from a young age.
No matter how pitiful he pretends, it doesn't look real.
"Brother Chuan, I just feel that we are all colleagues and should get along well." Yu Qingfeng said aggrievedly, and Bian Cheng next to him was so angry that he wanted to bite his teeth.
"Who's your Brother Chuan? What do you mean by 'friendly coexistence'? Does my Brother Chuan not talking to you mean I'm unfriendly? Stop trying to flatter yourself."
"How can you be so shameless as to get a job by swapping your sister? We're not going to be friendly with someone like you."
Biancheng was an impatient person. When he saw him circling around his brother Chuan, he knew that he was trying to please his brother Chuan again.
He felt like he was a jinx, that whatever he said would come true, and that Yu Qingfeng definitely wanted to take his place.
Dream on. His brother Chuan only has him as a close friend, someone like Yu Qingfeng. He wouldn't agree to let him join.
"Comrade Bian, you've misunderstood. This job was given to me by my brother-in-law. He said it was better to give it to me than to someone else."
Yu Qingfeng didn't expect him to bring this up. Even though he didn't think he had done anything wrong, he still said he felt wronged.
Several drivers nearby wanted to come up and say a few words of advice, but seeing Li Baichuan and Bian Cheng like this, they didn't dare to say anything more.
"Hmph, Gao Fei has a younger brother at home. I heard there's a commotion in his family right now; his brother is unemployed and has to go to the countryside."
"You said Gao Fei's job wasn't given to his own brother, but to you instead. Don't you feel guilty?"
Biancheng has thoroughly investigated their affairs these past few days. Don't say that it was all done by Yu Qingfeng's parents; the real beneficiary is Yu Qingfeng.
What's with his feigned innocence? It's disgusting.
"Comrade Bian, you misunderstand. I used to have a job, although it wasn't as good as being a driver, but the income wasn't low either."
“My brother-in-law offered to switch with me. He said he couldn’t stay in the transportation department anymore, and I agreed to help him.”
Yu Qingfeng noticed that everyone was looking at him differently. He was furious that the good reputation he had worked so hard to build up had been ruined by Bian Cheng's few words.
“Gao Fei and I have worked together for several years. He doesn’t look like a fool. Why would he trade a perfectly good driver job for a temporary worker like you?”
"I hate people like you who only say half of what they mean. If you're so capable, then explain yourself clearly. What do you mean by 'the other person took the initiative'? If your sister hadn't married into the family, would anyone even know who you are?"
"I don't want to get involved in your messy affairs. Just stay away from me and Brother Chuan from now on." Biancheng felt disgusted just looking at him.
Looking at Yu Qingfeng like this, Li Baichuan thought of the words his wife often used: "green tea bitch."
Yu Qingfeng looked at Biancheng with hatred in his heart. He must have investigated him. How could he do this?
He had never offended him and had always treated him with kindness and respect. How could he treat him like this?
He looked at Li Baichuan over there, his eyes full of grievance. Li Baichuan met his gaze, felt disgusted, and turned away.
"Brother Chuan, wait for me. You better remember this: stay away from me. And Brother Chuan, you stay even further away."
Biancheng isn't afraid of his revenge; he still has his father.
The remaining drivers looked at each other and then all left without daring to approach Yu Qingfeng.
What are the family backgrounds of Li Baichuan and Biancheng, and what is Yu Qingfeng's family background? Nobody is a fool.
Seeing how the people were avoiding him, Yu Qingfeng was even more furious. It wasn't like this when he used to help them with their work.
He watched Biancheng and Li Baichuan walk away into the distance, clenching his hands. He was a driver now, but they still looked down on him.
"Be more careful next time. What you just said offended someone." Li Baichuan didn't blame Bian Cheng for his impulsiveness.
Unless you're willing to feign compliance with someone like Yu Qingfeng, you'll eventually be resented if you displease him.
It's just that Biancheng speaks a bit too bluntly and doesn't hold back at all.
"I'm not afraid of him at all, Brother Chuan. I've made up my mind. Tonight I'll have someone put a sack over his head. Anyway, things have already gotten tense. So what if he finds out it was me?"
Biancheng still felt he needed to beat someone up to vent his anger, but he was afraid his brother Chuan wouldn't agree.
