After a series of screams, Yan Feng finally shook his hands and walked out of the office, wiping his palms with a tissue as he passed by the busy employees.

  "Oh, right," suddenly remembering something, he turned back and asked a male employee, "Xiao Zhang, have you finished the report I asked you to do earlier?"

  The man he addressed swallowed hard, forcing a smile, his voice trembling slightly, "No... not yet... But don't worry, Brother Feng, I'll definitely finish it today!"

  Yan Feng frowned at his words, dissatisfied, "Who said anything about that? I meant it's almost time to get off work. If you can't finish it, just send it to me ter, and I'll help you complete it at home tonight. After all, you only got it at 3 PM, so it's normal if you can't finish it."

  The other man nodded repeatedly, bending over and wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, trying to please him, "No, no, Brother Feng, I'm staying to work overtime voluntarily..."

  Yan Feng had finished wiping his hands by now and threw the two blood-stained tissues into the trash can, making a dull thud.

  "Xiao Zhang, are you short of money tely?"

  "Huh?" The man was taken aback, afraid of saying the wrong thing, and shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, Brother Feng, I'm not short of money..."

  Seeing this, Yan Feng just pursed his lips and turned to leave, not forgetting to add as he left, "Then remember to ask the finance department to calcute your overtime pay, don't work for nothing. It's time for me to get off work, see you tomorrow."

  "Take care, Brother Feng..."

  "Take care, Brother Feng..."

  A chorus of farewells sounded, and then everyone in the company breathed a sigh of relief.

  Having heard all the screams from the office, Wang Wenxin's face was pale with fright. She slowly turned her head to look at Sister Li beside her, only to witness a speechless scene as soon as she opened her mouth.

  Sister Li was sitting at her workstation, pying Pnts vs. Zombies with her mouse, looking completely absorbed as if she hadn't noticed the screams from the office just now.

  "Sister Li, how can you still be pying? Brother Feng almost scared me to death just now..."

  "Oh, he's just like that. You'll get used to it~" Sister Li crossed her legs, staring at the screen, and said nonchantly, "When it comes to work, he's like a madman, fierce and strict. But after work, he turns into a completely different person, cultured and refined."

  Wang Wenxin swallowed, looking at Old Zhuang, who was holding his head and limping out of the office not far away, and couldn't help but twitch her mouth...

  ***

  Meanwhile.

  Yan Feng was already on the bus home, trying to recall his high school knowledge while pnning how to tutor the young girl ter.

  Improving her grades might be difficult, but tutoring her was quite simple, as her scores were already near rock bottom, so any effort would be an improvement.

  The bus moved forward, occasionally stopping. The man leaned against the window, watching the street scene recede outside, silent.

  Why... even after all this time... do I still think of her when I calm down...

  He shook his head, a self-deprecating smile appearing on his face.

  The bus stopped, a few passengers got off, and he looked out the window again, only to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure from his memories.

  He immediately stood up, pressing his head against the window with a thud, eyes wide, staring outside.

  It was a secluded alley, with a few girls standing inside, surrounding a hooded young girl, seemingly involved in a typical bullying incident.

  Yan Feng's clenched fist tightened and then rexed, slowly sitting down, thinking he must be exhausted to mistake the surrounded girl for his sister...

  In the adult world, there's not much courage and bravery, just managing oneself and minding one's own business.

  Yet his gaze remained fixed outside, never moving away.

  They approached the girl.

  They seemed to be saying something, probably vulgar words.

  They... seemed about to make a move.

  "Damn it!" Yan Feng cursed under his breath, then shouted towards the front of the bus, "Don't close the door, there's still someone getting off!"

  Amidst the driver's curses, he squeezed off the bus and headed straight for the end of the alley.

  At that moment, the girls were gathered together, looking fierce, with the tall girl leading the interrogation of the hooded young girl in the middle.

  "Did you seduce my boyfriend!? Speak!"

  "I didn't." A cold voice came from under the hood, calm and indifferent, as if she didn't take the other party seriously.

  "Didn't!? Bullshit!"

  Seeing that their intimidation had no effect, the tall girl became angry, grabbing the young girl's colr with one hand, the other raised, ready to strike!

  In fairy tales, heroes always step forward when ordinary people are in danger, but reality is often not like that.

  Because those who stand up for the weak are just ordinary people themselves.

  Coincidentally, Yan Feng was just such an ordinary person.

  With a snap, he stepped forward and grabbed the girl's raised hand, holding it firmly, unable to move.

  He even deliberately used less force.

  Dealing with such young girls, Yan Feng didn't dare to use too much strength, fearing that if she struggled, he might accidentally break her wrist, which would be troublesome.

  "Why are you bullying her?"

  His voice was calm, devoid of anger, yet his tall, imposing figure and the solid muscles beneath his suit were enough to intimidate the girls in front of him.

  "She seduced my boyfriend!" The girl with her wrist caught turned pale, looking somewhat indignant.

  "And what about the others?" Yan Feng continued to ask.

  "The others... they're my sisters! And who the hell are you!? Mind your own business! Ah!!! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!"

  Yan Feng silently increased the pressure on her wrist, ignoring the cries of pain in his ear, then looked at the other girls, his expression still calm:

  "If there's nothing else, you should all go back. You probably have homework to do, right?"

  He deliberately elongated the st words, the meaning clear.

  Those girls, who usually only acted tough at school, had never encountered such a situation. Seeing their leader easily subdued by a single hand, some of the more timid ones were almost in tears, and they scattered like birds, fleeing the alley.

  Now, only three people remained.

  Yan Feng sighed, thinking he really couldn't control his urge to meddle, then turned to the hooded young girl and asked:"She said you seduced her boyfriend, is that true?"

  The girl slowly raised her head, revealing a pair of extremely cold eyes. Under the man's gradually unfocused gaze, she chuckled softly and asked in return:"What do you think, Uncle?"

  With a twist of her wrist under the strong external force, a crisp crack sounded, followed by a girl's scream echoing through the empty alley.
