Chapter 5: Chapter 5: The Trembling Boss
"Bang!"
A stick hit his thigh, and he only felt his thigh suddenly become numb, followed by an uncontrollable collapse to his knees. But after a few seconds, endless pain surged from the thigh, overtaking his mind, tormenting his soul, making him wail incessantly.
"You want me to kneel and call you 'Master'? Now it's your turn to kneel and call me 'Master'!"
"Bang bang bang!"
After knocking the arrogant and overbearing muscular security guard to the ground, Lin Yifan panted heavily, holding the bent patrol stick, and pointed at the guard, saying, "Call me 'Master'!"
The security guard, beaten to the ground and unable to move, felt an immense shame. Weren't these the words he had just confidently said to Lin Yifan? How come now it was the other way around, with his opponent pointing at his nose, commanding him to do something humiliating for a lifetime? What a slap in the face!
Now that his life was in Lin Yifan's hands, he had no choice but to lower his stance and do as the other party wanted. Hence, through gritted teeth, he responded, "Master! Please spare me!"
"Hmph! That's more like it."
Lin Yifan snorted coldly, tossed aside the bent patrol stick, and walked menacingly towards the boss of Royal Pool No. 1.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 was so frightened that he panicked and ran. This was a real tough guy, and he absolutely couldn't let himself be caught.
Watching this scene, Lin Yifan kicked up a stick with his foot and hurled it fiercely in the direction of the fleeing boss of Royal Pool No. 1.
"Swish!"
The patrol stick drove deep into the grass ahead of the boss of Royal Pool No. 1, deterring the escaping boss.
Following that, a cold voice came from behind the boss of Royal Pool No. 1, "Dare to take another step, and your life is forfeit."
"No! No! Big brother, let's talk this over nicely, don't resort to violence."
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 lost all his earlier arrogance and became as scared as a frightened chick.
This was because the weak could only speak humbly to the strong, and if roles were reversed, the injustice Lin Yifan received might have been even worse.
"Get back here!"
Lin Yifan commanded coldly and mercilessly, without any trace of sentiment.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 dared not delay and immediately rolled back.
Coming before Lin Yifan, she trembled without daring to glance at Lin Yifan, frightened by his fierce gaze.
"Lift your head and look at me!" Lin Yifan ordered.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 hesitated, unsure if she should lift her head; she was afraid that doing so would offend Lin Yifan's majestic presence.
Now Lin Yifan was the strong one, and she was the weak; such an action was absolutely forbidden.
"I told you to lift your head and look at me! What's with the hesitation?" Lin Yifan questioned impatiently, fuming mad.
This command terrified the boss of Royal Pool No. 1; she lifted her head while trembling and stammered, "Lifting... lifting..."
At this moment, her heart was pounding wildly, truly unable to bear any more shocks.
Looking at the boss of Royal Pool No. 1's pale face, Lin Yifan asked expressionlessly, "Do you know how to write the word 'death'?"
"I know... I know..."
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 quickly replied. She understood that Lin Yifan was on the verge of rage, and if she didn't act promptly, she might actually get beaten.
"So do you know what to do now?" Lin Yifan pressed.
"I know! I know!"
"Then show me how you'll do it!"
Lin Yifan folded his arms, with an expression of a director scrutinizing an actor's performance skills.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1, trembling with fear, pulled out the key and headed towards the office door.
She understood that Lin Yifan was asking her to settle the salary; therefore, she hurried into the office to get money for Lin Yifan.
However, she misunderstood, as Lin Yifan's demand was not merely for her to settle the salary, leading him to bellow, "Get back here!"
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1, startled, asked tremblingly, "Handsome... handsome guy, what's... what's wrong? Did I do something incorrect?"
"Don't you think your initial behavior was very impolite? Kneel down and apologize to me at once!" Lin Yifan commanded loudly.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 let out a sigh of relief, then immediately knelt down and apologized with her head lowered, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
As long as Lin Yifan didn't kill her, she would do anything he asked, including such humiliating acts as kneeling to apologize.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 had received her deserved lesson and punishment, and Lin Yifan didn't want to pursue anything further.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that she was a woman, he would have already struck severely to teach her a lesson.
"Stand up, and settle this ten days' wages for me!" Lin Yifan ordered indifferently.
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 dared not slack off and immediately got up with the key, opened the door to the office, and then settled the ten days' wages for Lin Yifan.
Actually, she didn't even look at the attendance record and paid Lin Yifan three thousand yuan, calculating a daily wage of three hundred yuan.
The contract clearly stated that if Lin Yifan worked for a full month, including overtime, he could earn up to nine thousand yuan.
And these ten days, she had never seen Lin Yifan rest; so it wasn't a loss.
Seeing that the boss of Royal Pool No. 1 was so sensible, Lin Yifan casually accepted the thick stack of bills and walked away.
As he reached the entrance, he paused, slightly turned his head, and coldly warned, "Be decent in the future, or you won't even know how you died."
Having said that, he left without looking back.
Through the window, after seeing Lin Yifan walk far away, the boss of Royal Pool No. 1 finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Luckily Lin Yifan only wanted money; if he had wanted her life, then today would have been her end.
"He seemed quite honest and straightforward on the surface, so why is he so frightening when enraged?"
The boss of Royal Pool No. 1 was very puzzled.
When she first interacted with Lin Yifan, she hadn't perceived any threat from him; but now, the angry Lin Yifan was a completely different person from before.
