Chapter 10

These few colleagues who stayed behind in the company were mostly not Yan Jun's confidants. The ones sent on external assignments were, because although it was more tiring, they had more free time and more opportunities for personal gain.

Among them, only two had been with the company for over a year; the rest were new hires from the past few months. The company had a high turnover rate in recent years, especially in the planning department, which had a lot of performance pressure. If it weren't for his contract, Chen Feng would have left long ago.

And most of those without contract constraints could leave whenever they wanted.

Now, these few colleagues holding onto Chen Feng weren't really trying to save Yan Jun, but rather to prevent the situation from escalating, and of course, they were afraid of being implicated if it did.

Additionally, if they stood by and did nothing, Yan Jun would definitely make them pay afterward.

"Alright, let go. I won't make another move."

When Chen Feng said this, he struggled a bit, and the two people holding his arms let go. However, two others still blocked him in front.

At this moment, with the help of two others, Yan Jun finally managed to stand up from the ground. He wiped his mouth with his hand, which came away covered in blood from his nose. He was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he roared, "Chen Feng! I'll kill you!"

Chen Feng gave him a contemptuous smile and said, "I'll stand right here for you to kill. Do you dare?"

"Fine, fine, fine! Let's see if I dare!"

After being hit so fiercely by Chen Feng, Yan Jun's face was covered in blood, and he had lost all his dignity. He no longer cared about his image as a department manager.

As he gritted his teeth, he quickly went over to pick up a keyboard from a desk and tried to pull it out with both hands, but the cable was still connected to the computer.

Yan Jun angrily pulled again with all his might, and this time he finally pulled it out, but he also pulled the computer tower to the ground with a loud thud. The monitor fell over with a bang, and the screen was immediately broken. Many things on the desk also clattered to the floor.

It was like he was dismantling the place.

This was a bit awkward!

Yan Jun's fierce momentum, which had been so strong just a moment ago, suddenly waned. Thinking about Chen Feng's ferocity, his confidence weakened even more.

Chen Feng, who had nothing to lose, wasn't afraid of someone with a lot to lose. But I have a salary of over ten thousand a month, a car, a house, a family, and a child; I can't risk my life with him.

But he had already picked up the keyboard, and it would be too embarrassing to back down now.

Yan Jun quickly signaled to the nearest subordinate, indicating that he wanted him to stop him so he could back down gracefully.

However, this subordinate clearly misunderstood his signal and thought he was telling him not to block the way. He immediately moved aside, signaling that he wasn't blocking him and that he could use the keyboard as a weapon freely.

Yan Jun was stunned. He inwardly cursed the fool and gave the new hire a deep look, making a mental note.

The new hire, thinking he had done the right thing, even gave him a shy smile.

Yan Jun was so angry that his liver hurt, and he held the keyboard in both hands, unsure of what to do.

Chen Feng saw his hesitation and mocked him, "Yan Jun, are you already losing your nerve? Someone like you can only plot behind people's backs. When it comes to a fight, you're just a coward. Someone like you probably can't satisfy your wife, and she'll end up giving you a lot of green hats."

"Chen Feng! Damn you!" Yan Jun was completely enraged because Chen Feng had hit a sore spot. He indeed couldn't satisfy his wife, and this had been a problem for a long time. He had always been worried about his wife giving him a green hat.

Chen Feng had really hit the nail on the head.

"Help me hold him down!" Yan Jun shouted, directly ordering his subordinates and offering a reward, "If you help me hold him down, your bonus next month will be doubled, and I will promote you in the future."

The monthly bonus was a few hundred yuan, a very practical benefit. As for the promotion, although they didn't fully believe it, it was better than being treated unfairly.

The few people on the scene looked at each other hesitantly.

Chen Feng remained calm and said with a smile, "Yan Jun, you're trying to drag others into this. Others may not know, but we few know that you favor your relatives and secretly accept various benefits from clients, enriching yourself and your confidants at the company's expense. You'll end up in jail sooner or later, and you want to drag others down with you?"

"You... don't spout lies."

Yan Jun immediately lost his composure, feeling very guilty. He thought he had been very discreet in the past two years, and only he and his confidants knew about it. He didn't expect Chen Feng to expose it so easily.

"What? Afraid? Feeling guilty?"

Chen Feng looked at him mockingly.

Yan Jun was indeed afraid and guilty. In the past two years, he had benefited a lot from both inside and outside the company. How could he have lived so comfortably in this provincial capital city on just a salary of a few hundred thousand a year?

"Chen Feng, stop spreading lies. Do you think people will believe you just because you say a few things to frame me?"

Yan Jun said this, but he had already put down the keyboard and no longer mentioned having his subordinates hold down Chen Feng.

Chen Feng sneered, "Have you forgotten that I was once a deputy manager? Your little tricks might fool others, but not someone who has been in your position. Understand?"

When Yan Jun heard this, his mind buzzed. He knew his own affairs; in the past two years, he had made a lot of money.

For example, a proposal originally quoted at 1 million yuan, but he accepted a 100,000 yuan benefit from the client and only quoted 800,000 yuan, telling the company that the client was too good at haggling. This clearly harmed the company's interests.

Another example was working with the project manager of the client's company. A proposal originally quoted at 1 million yuan, but the project manager wanted a kickback, so they quoted 1.5 million yuan, and he could get a few ten thousand yuan in benefits.

These two methods were the most common and could be considered unwritten rules in the workplace. There were also some more complex ways to make money.

In short, his gray income in the past two years was several times his official salary.

Of course, these things were criminal, and if caught, he would go to jail. Although he thought he wouldn't be caught, he didn't dare to take the risk.

Especially if Chen Feng, an insider, exposed him, he would be in serious trouble.

"Chen Feng, considering that you once mentored me, let's call it a day. I'll consider it repaying your past kindness. I won't make things difficult for you regarding bonuses and performance. Let's end it here."

Yan Jun was decisive and immediately chose to temporarily compromise. Escalating the situation would be of no benefit to him.

He needed to stabilize Chen Feng first and then find a way to deal with him privately.

Chen Feng, of course, didn't want to let him off so easily. They had already torn their masks off, so what was there to talk about?

Besides, although he had beaten Yan Jun, the anger he had been suppressing for two years hadn't been fully released.

"Wait!"

"Wait!"

Two voices rang out simultaneously. Chen Feng looked at the door in surprise and saw the company's general manager, Mr. Cao, along with several other senior executives, escorting a fierce-looking woman in her thirties into the room.

Mr. Cao's face was very grim, and his already dark skin looked even darker.
