After Duan Fei and Jiang Bei entered the furniture store, Duan Fei threw his car keys at a staff member and began giving out orders with a cocky attitude.
"You, go park my car!"
Duan Fei turned to another worker and demanded, "Get me a glass of water." He then gestured to a pretty female employee and said, "Come over and give me a massage. I'm a little tired after driving for so long!"
The staff member who he had thrown his key at had a dumbfounded expression on his face. He looked at Duan Fei with eyes full of doubt.
"Sir, our staff here do not offer valet parking services. If you need someone to park your car, there are people outside who can help you! Moreover, this is a furniture store, not a massage parlor. If you want a massage, go out and turn left; you'll find a blind masseur three kilometers away!"
After his speech, the young man placed the car keys on the table and turned to return to his work.
Duan Fei exchanged a look with Jiang Bei and kicked the young man's rear.
The young staff member didn't expect Duan Fei to attack him, so he had left his guard wide open. Caught unawares, he fell face-first to the ground and scraped his chin.
He tried to get up from the floor, but Duan Fei stepped on his back and taunted, "Just so you know, your boss is my best friend. You have to do whatever I say anytime I visit this place. If you guys have any complaints, hold them in! Otherwise, you will end up fired!"
The employees became hesitant at his words. They retreated up the stairs, leaving their poor colleague under Duan Fei's foot, and whispered to each other.
"Do you think what he said is true? Does he really know the boss?"
"It can't be! Our boss is such a humble person. How could he be friends with someone like that?"
"Shh! Keep your voices down. You don't want him to hear us!"
The others quickly shut their mouths at that remark. Then, a trembling voice said, "He might actually be the boss's friend! I saw the Young Master chatting with them just now!"
Everyone's hearts missed a beat at that tidbit.
If he truly was the Young Master's friend, they couldn't offend him. If he went to the Young Master with complaints, they would be finished!
With this thought in mind, several staff members hurried downstairs and approached Duan Fei and Jiang Bei.
They then greeted them politely, "Young masters, what are you looking to purchase? Would you like to head inside and have some tea while looking at our samples?"
Duan Fei's eyes flashed greedily as he stared at the two beauties before him, but he quickly withdrew his gaze.
Pretty women were a dime a dozen; the most important thing now was to serve his brother-in-law well.
So, Duan Fei took on lofty airs and said, "Since you've offered, we'll oblige!"
The two young women sighed in relief at Duan Fei's assent. They were confident they could coax the two men if they had some privacy.
When Duan Fei left, he ruthlessly stomped on the young staff member's back a few more times as if venting his anger.
It wasn't until Duan Fei and Jiang Bei left that the workers who were close to the young man walked over. "Xiao Zhang, just bear with it. We're no match against people like them. Think of your family!"
Xiao Zhang clenched his fists tightly. His face was reluctant as he muttered, "Okay, I got it. It's just parking a car; I'll get it done!"
With that, Xiao Zhang grabbed the keys and walked out.
Xiao Zhang looked at the car before him and kicked the tires twice, cursing Duan Fei and his forefathers.
Xiao Zhang was about to give the car one last kick when Chen Tianming suddenly spoke up from behind him, "What are you doing?"
The young man was startled, and his aim veered off course. His foot landed heavily on the car door and caused a dent.
When he saw the dent, the young man could no longer hold back his emotions and cried, "Why am I so unlucky? I got beaten up, and now I have to pay for the damage I did to the jerk's car. I can't stand this anymore!"
"I don't know when these days will end…"
Chen Tianming had compiled what happened from the young man's comments.
He had been wondering why Duan Fei and Jiang Bei didn't cause any trouble, but it turned out they were using his name to terrorize his employees!
Since they were brazenly testing his patience, Chen Tianming wouldn't pull his punches.
Chen Tianming asked Su Xiaonuan to come over and instructed her, "Ms. Su, if you could go and…"
Su Xiaonuan was surprised at Chen Tianming's plans; she didn't expect Chen Tianming to put the welfare of his employees first!
It's rare for employers to be so considerate!
Su Xiaonuan already had a good impression of Chen Tianming, which grew as she spent more time around him. As a result, she was very efficient in carrying out the mission he gave her.
Su Xiaonuan was done with all the paperwork in just five minutes and immediately handed the documents to Chen Tianming.
"Mr. Chen, I've completed the task you assigned me."
Chen Tianming looked at the documents and nodded in satisfaction. "Ms. Su, well done!"
After saying this, Chen Tianming took the revised employee handbook and walked to the young man.
"It's written in the employee handbook that our workers don't have to be responsible for valet parking! Hence, if a vehicle were damaged, our workers wouldn't need to take responsibility either!"
A glimmer of hope flashed across the young man's eyes when he heard this. He understood what he should do.
He smiled gratefully at Chen Tianming and walked toward Duan Fei's car.
Chen Tianming saw the young man's actions and knew that he understood what he meant. He looked at Su Xiaonuan and said, "Let's go and see what my dear friends are getting up to inside!"
Chen Tianming smiled when he said that, but Su Xiaonuan felt a chill down her spine.
She had a feeling the two friends Chen Tianming mentioned would be in big trouble.
No one was in the huge furniture store when Chen Tianming and Su Xiaonuan went in. However, they could hear laughter and muffled moans from the break room deep within the store.
Chen Tianming's smile grew brighter when he heard the noises.
He kicked open the break room door and cheerfully asked, "Are you having fun?"
The break room instantly fell silent.
Duan Fei's hands paused on the female staff's collar. Everyone in the room turned toward Chen Tianming.
Seeing that he had their attention, Chen Tianming smiled kindly and repeated his question, "Are you having fun?"
