Chapter 206: Chapter 206 My friend doesn’t agree

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

All his cards were laid bare by Lin Fan.

Xu Dejun’s face turned as red as a pig’s liver.

The duck that was already cooked was about to fly away.

This was a situation he definitely did not want to see.

"Whether I’m talking nonsense or not, you know very well. How could the message passed to me by my friend be wrong?"

Lin Fan said sternly, "Since you have already denied the loan defrosting for the Ning Group, yet you come here spouting big talk, what exactly do you want to do?"

"The words of whatever damn friend you’re talking about are obviously false. Who knows better than I whether the signature has been signed or not?"

Xu Dejun naturally couldn’t admit it.

Because he could see that Ning Mengyao still harbored a sliver of hope.

As long as he didn’t explicitly refuse her.

Then she would cling desperately to that lifeline.

"Ning Mengyao, I demand that you fire this lousy assistant right now, make him scram immediately, or don’t blame me for really signing off a refusal of the Ning Group’s loan application. Oh, and that so-called friend of yours, I’ll find out who they are too, and make them leave the bank as well. It’s their own fault for keeping the wrong company."

Xu Dejun’s expression made Ning Mengyao feel somewhat uncertain.

After all, although the project had taken off, if the bank loan did not come through,

this month’s salary disbursement, final payment for the project, and procurement of goods would all be affected.

But Lin Fan’s words were so resolute.

At such a time, she really couldn’t find a reason to keep going.

"Mr. Xu, I won’t fire him. If the bank won’t lend to me, then I’ll just sell the medical beauty project in a bundle. There are plenty of people on the market who want it. You’re just making it hard for a small enterprise like mine. Do you think you can afford to offend those big fish?"

In the end, Ning Mengyao toughened up.

She wasn’t without an alternative; she just didn’t want to retreat.

But if she had to trade her dignity for others’ pity,

she’d rather start over from scratch.

"Fine, Ning Mengyao, is this your attitude towards me? OK, I indeed can’t touch those big shots, but my power is enough to crush you. I’m putting my words here: if you dare walk out that door today, I guarantee I will use all my connections to ensure you close down for good!"

Xu Dejun roared furiously.

His eyes, bloodshot, resembled those of a crazed beast.

"Do as you please, I’m up for it. Let’s go!"

Ning Mengyao, afraid that Lin Fan would start a fight, grabbed his arm to leave.

They would deal with what was to come later.

She had to solve the company’s funding issues as quickly as possible first.

"Not so fast, we haven’t settled our score yet."

Unexpectedly, Lin Fan chuckled and wrapped an arm around Ning Mengyao’s waist.

"Lin Fan, don’t make trouble. He’s not worth it for this!"

Ning Mengyao worriedly clutched Lin Fan’s arm.

Xu Dejun was a bastard,

but definitely not one to be trifled with lightly.

It had to be said that his position definitely lay before the gates of Yama Palace, like a little demon blocking the path.

Without getting past his barrier, there was no way to reach the upper echelons directly.

So, even if it meant burning bridges,

she didn’t want Lin Fan to resort to violence against such a person.

Especially since their family connections were extremely complicated.

Parents who were retired bank executives, dozens of direct relatives spread across the big four banks.

The positions weren’t high, but the roots were deep.

That’s what made a middle-class family so terrifying.

"He’s certainly not worth it, but while it’s OK for him to look down on me, he can’t look down on my friend," Lin Fan said coldly, shaking the bottle of Moutai in his hand. "Now I’m giving you a chance. Drink this, then kneel and kowtow, go back and sign the defrosting application. I’ll let bygones be bygones if you do. Otherwise, once my friend gets angry, you’re really going to suffer."

"Bullshit!"

Lin Fan’s words were like a fantasy to Xu Dejun.

Snorting in disdain, he looked dismissively at Lin Fan.

"You bastard, how dare you screw this up for me, I’ve got your number now. I swear I’ll dig out that son of a bitch you call a friend and show him what happens when you choose your friends poorly!"

There were only a few people who could have accessed and rejected the unfreezing request.

Aside from the bank manager, the rest were just lowly privates not worth a glance.

Dealing with them, Xu Dejun had plenty of tricks up his sleeve.

"No need for you to do the digging, that son of a bitch friend you mentioned is already here. Since you’re so cocky, why don’t you talk to him yourself and tell him how you plan to kill him off!"

Lin Fan said with a smile as he pulled Ning Mengyao aside.

He also glanced at the door of the private room that had been kicked in.

"Fuck your grandmother, you bastard, I want to see which son of a..."

Xu Dejun, with his back to the door, turned his head around cursing and swearing.

But what he saw was the manager of their sub-branch.

"Xu Dejun, what were you saying about a son of a bitch?"The manager frowned, glaring with his eyes wide.

His face was heavy as he looked at Xu Dejun.

"Old leader... how come it’s you... you... why are you here?"

Xu Dejun hurried over, nodding and bowing profusely.

His alcohol-addled brain was temporarily unable to grasp this sudden turn of events.

Considering this sub-branch manager was his direct superior.

"Only you are allowed to eat and drink lavishly here, and I can’t have drinks and chat with a friend?"

The manager asked sternly, his face full of anger as he glared at Xu Dejun.

"You... How could you possibly be friends with someone like him... Isn’t he just a junior assistant from the Ning Group?"

Xu Dejun still couldn’t understand.

How could Lin Fan, young as he was, be friends with a sub-branch manager in his fifties.

"You’re quite right, he’s not my friend!"

Lin Fan said with a smile, "But is that enough to deal with you?"

"Mr. Xu, I am now formally notifying you that, starting from tomorrow, you will be suspended with pay and under investigation by the organization!"

Before Xu Dejun could say anything further, Mr. Li stated firmly with a stern face.

"Manager... you’re playing favorites... how can you side with the kid... and besides... Have you talked to my uncle about suspending me?"

Being suspended in front of so many people.

The anger that arose in Xu Dejun was too much for him to suppress.

Mr. Li, after all, was a former subordinate of his own uncle.

And his uncle was still working as a director at the head office, not retiring until next year.

"I don’t need to tell him, this is an organizational command, and you are just to comply," said Mr. Li, clenching his back teeth.

He glared fiercely at Xu Dejun.

This guy still didn’t realize what sort of person he had offended.

"I don’t accept this!"

But to his surprise, Xu Dejun, emboldened by drink, didn’t give face at all.

With a fierce expression, he took out his phone directly.

"Mr. Li, we’ve always kept to our own lanes, but now you’re provoking me, I have no choice but to call my uncle and discuss the matter here with him!"

"You..."

Mr. Li hadn’t expected Xu Dejun to confront him head-on.

He sighed helplessly.

This kid was asking for trouble.

"’You’ what? I’m telling you, as long as I don’t want to leave, nobody can force me out!" Xu Dejun declared boldly, hands on his hips and shouting loudly.

Just then, another voice came from outside the door.

"Then have your uncle join you in the investigation."
