The familiar voice carried a hint of intriguing mockery. Zhao Youming’s eyes widened in an instant as he stared incredulously at the arrogant young man, who was standing insolently in front of his desk.

“What… What are you doing here?”

The corner of Zhao Yifei’s lips raised contemptuously, as he answered in a profound manner, “What? You actually haven’t heard? I am back at the company and I am now staying in the department next to yours. Little rascal, you didn’t expect this, did you? We met again so soon and we have become ‘neighbors’.”

Next door? Those words he heard not long ago immediately popped into his head. The human resource department next door is welcoming a new chief today!

Zhao Youming’s eyes abruptly widened. “You are the new chief of the human resource department?”

“That’s right!” Zhao Yifei propped his hands on Zhao Youming’s table and leaned toward him from across the desk.?Zhao Yifei sneered and said, “You seem surprised that I am the new chief? Right, not long ago, someone here had complacently bragged about his position as a department chief before me and mocked me for failing to be promoted to the position as a chief after being a small employee for so many years. How does it feel to get a slap in the face now?”

During all those years Zhao Youming stayed abroad, he had learned nothing else but patience and pretense.

After the initial surprise, the expressions of shock and momentary disbelief on Zhao Youming’s face went back to hide beneath his gentle facade. He smiled and said, “Cousin Yifei, what are you talking about? I’m really glad to hear that you can return to the company and even get a promotion. What do you mean by a slap in the face?”

What Zhao Yifei hated the most was Zhao Youming’s hypocrisy. Zhao Yifei’s face, which originally still carried a trace of satisfaction in his expression, abruptly sank.

Zhao Yifei stood up straight all of a sudden. He walked around the desk in front of Zhao Youming and went directly to Zhao Youming’s side. Then, he draped his arm across Zhao Youming’s shoulder like they were best friends before he smiled contemptuously and said, “Come on, Zhao Youming. It’s just me and you in this office. Drop the act.”

Zhao Youming’s gaze was fixed on Zhao Yifei’s hand on his shoulder. A trace of disgust quickly flashed in his eyes, though he maintained a faint smile on his face. He said indifferently, “What are you talking about? How come I don’t understand any of it?”

“You don’t understand?” Zhao Yifei’s emotionless voice came from behind him. Zhao Youming opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he was scared stiff by the cold and hard object pressed up against his waist.

Zhao Youming’s eyes widened. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the man behind him, only to find the bloodthirsty viciousness and madness in Zhao Yifei’s eyes, which were fixed on him. He looked really frightening.

This guy is not thinking of killing him here, is he? Realizing what the thing that was pressing up against his waist was, Zhao Youming’s face turned white again.

Zhao Youming’s reaction obviously pleased Zhao Yifei. He snickered and whispered mockingly into Zhao Youming’s ear, “You are afraid now? Why weren’t you this scared when my hand was being broken or when you were bragging in front of me before? Tell me!”

Zhao Yifei’s voice abruptly rose. And his other free hand suddenly grabbed Zhao Youming’s hair and forcefully slammed his head against the table.

With a loud bang, Zhao Youming’s head hit the tabletop so hard that it made him dizzy and even his mind went blank for a moment.

Zhao Yifei glanced coldly at Zhao Youming, who was in a miserable state. The pleasure of revenge churned in his heart.

No one knows how much hatred he held in his heart during the time he was resting at home with one arm hanging, unable to do anything. He hated Zhao Youlin for being ungrateful, and he hated Zhao Youming more for not knowing his place.

Putting Zhao Youlin aside, who did Zhao Youming think he was? He was nothing more but an illegitimate child. He had got the nerve to walk over him. It was a great insult to him.

Resentment and humiliation tormented him day after day. His parents thought that the injury on his hand was Zhao Youlin’s doing, and his anger was targeted at her. He did not bother to explain it to them.

On the one hand, it was because he did not want to take revenge by the hands of others; on the other hand, it was because there was no difference between Zhao Youlin and Zhao Youming, as he would not let any of them get away with it. And today was the first step of his vengeance.

“Do you know why I am here today and how I became a department chief, the position that I have been trying hard to seize for years but failed before?” Zhao Yifei patiently waited for Zhao Youming to regain his consciousness before speaking again.

“Because those old guys on board are scared. After seeing that vixen Zhao Youlin gradually securing her power as the company’s general manager, and the fact that she has a close relationship with her brother, who they have just reunited with. While the siblings are gaining dominion over the company, those old guys have begun to lose their voices and their decision-making power, so they panicked. In order to maintain their glamor on the surface, the board is in desperate need of a person who can restrict Zhao Youlin’s power. And this person is me!”

Hearing what Zhao Yifei said, Zhao Youming trembled. His brain, which had turned into mush earlier, became clearer. Though his head was still pinned on the table by Zhao Yifei. He feared the weapon that was against his waist, so he did not dare to struggle hard. He could only stare at Zhao Yifei’s face sidelong.

“Do you know what this means?” Zhao Yifei leaned down and took the initiative to get closer to him. Looking into Zhao Youming’s eyes, he uttered, “It means that in the mind of those old guys, I am more valuable than you.”

“The value of being a puppet? Mmmm…”

The moment Zhao Youming retorted, he felt a hard and heavy blow to his abdomen with the handle of a solid knife. It was so painful that it made him want to throw up.

“Puppet? What’s wrong with being a puppet? At least I still have the value of being a puppet. Besides, who knows if I am really being treated as a puppet? You, on the other hand, don’t even have the value of being a puppet. So what if you joined the company first? What if you were one step ahead of me in being a chief? In the end, the first person they thought of who could compete with Zhao Youlin for Zhao Enterprise was me. You, on the contrary, have been excluded by everyone from the very beginning.

The grin on Zhao Yifei’s face got wider as he saw cracks on the look of Zhao Youming’s face. The switchblade that was pressed up against Zhao Youming’s waist began to move up little by little.

The feeling of the ice-cold blade on his back transmitted from the nerve endings to the brain, giving Zhao Youming goosebumps all over.

The sharp blade moved up to Zhao Youming’s neck little by little, and then.... He raised it high!
