Normally, even if they knew they were in the wrong, they wouldn't lower themselves to apologize for the sake of their pride. This Qi Wenhan was quite the character!
"Brother Ling is magnanimous, but as the head of the escort agency, I cannot turn a blind eye to such an atrocious incident. Otherwise, I might as well hand over my authority as soon as possible and go home to take care of my children!" Qi Wenhan said with a serious expression.
Hearing this, everyone's expressions turned cold. Looking at the young master's stance, he was ready to take action!
However, this was to be expected. Qi Wenhan had been in charge of the agency for five years, and this could be said to be the most serious incident that had ever happened under his command. Not only had they been set up and blackmailed, but the most hateful thing was that the internal escorts had been trying to cover up the truth. If such a terrible incident was not dealt with, then the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency would not be far from destruction.
Feeling Qi Wenhan's cold gaze, Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan felt as if their hearts had fallen into an ice cellar. Ignoring their cold hands and feet, they begged for mercy, "Young master, we were wrong, we really were wrong. We only surrendered because of a moment of fear. We really didn't collude with Wei Zhaotong. Please, young master, be merciful and spare our lives …"
"Li Yanji, Guan Zhiyuan, you are both veteran permanent escorts. In terms of seniority, you are even older than me. You were already here before I took over. If it wasn't for this incident, even if you were a little slack in your work, I could only turn a blind eye. After all, even if you didn't make a contribution, you would still have worked hard," Qi Wenhan said calmly.
However, the calmer he was, the more afraid Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan became. This was a sign that a storm was coming. On the contrary, if Qi Wenhan were to fly into a rage now … Even if he beat them up to vent his anger, he wouldn't be too harsh on them later.
"No … Young master, we …" Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan still wanted to beg for mercy, but unfortunately, it was too late to say anything at this point.
"Don't waste your breath begging for mercy. This time, not only did the two of you surrender voluntarily, causing our escort agency to suffer a huge loss, you even inverted the truth and framed your companions, committing such a despicable act of treachery. Do you think I'll spare you two bastards? "Qi Wenhan's face flashed with killing intent.
Li Guan and the other man were immediately frightened out of their wits. They lost control of their knees and knelt on the ground with a thud. They begged for mercy, "Young Master, please spare our lives! Young master, please spare my life! … "
"Hmph, whether or not the two of you can keep your lives is not up to me to decide now. Whether you live or die, I'll leave it all up to Brother Ling to decide!" Qi Wenhan then turned his gaze towards Lin Yi, letting Lin Yi, the victim who had been slandered, personally decide. Letting him vent his anger was also a form of apology in disguise.
Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan looked at each other, and their hearts sank. They were done for. If they allowed Ling Yi to decide their life and death, would they still have a way out of this?
"Brother Qi, you can deal with it yourself, I have no objections." Lin Yi waved his hand dismissively. To be honest, Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan were just insignificant clowns in his eyes. Whether they lived or died, he couldn't be bothered to care.
Moreover, this was Qi Wenhan's territory. The other party handed over the power of life and death to Lin Yi as an apology, and Lin Yi's personality had always been one to respect others tenfold. Since the other party knew how to conduct himself, Lin Yi naturally wouldn't do such a thing.
Qi Wenhan was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at Lin Yi even more highly. Not only did this person hide his strength, but he was also neither servile nor overbearing when dealing with matters. He was magnanimous, which was rare!
"If that's the case, then thank you for your understanding, Brother Ling." Qi Wenhan no longer stood on ceremony, and his gaze fell upon the trembling Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan. In a cold voice, he announced, "From today onwards, my Heaven's Equal Escort Agency will fire Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan, and put them on the agency's blacklist. This will be a public announcement, and they will be kicked out immediately!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd couldn't help but whisper amongst themselves. Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan had committed such a treacherous act, so it was only natural that they would be fired. It was likely that they wouldn't be able to receive even a single cent of the remuneration they had accumulated over the past few days. It was already good enough that they weren't required to pay a sky-high price for their losses, let alone talk about remuneration!
However, putting them on the agency's blacklist and making a public announcement was a more serious matter. This meant that their misdeeds would be known by all other escorts, and from then on, no escort agency would be willing to hire them. At least, they wouldn't be able to survive in the field of escorts anymore.
Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan looked at each other. After hearing such a punishment, they weren't shocked, but were instead overjoyed. From their point of view, it was already good enough that they were able to keep their lives. Although it was a pity that they wouldn't be able to work as escorts anymore, they were both Golden Core experts after all, so they wouldn't have to worry about having nowhere to go.
"Alright, we'll leave now!" Seeing that their lives were saved, Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan immediately became much more resolute. After giving Lin Yi a venomous look, they turned around and walked out the door.
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes noncommittally, not paying any attention to these two clowns. However, he was a little surprised. Could it be that this Qi Wenhan was really a soft-hearted person? Although such a punishment wasn't out of the question, wasn't it a little too light?
The matter didn't end there. Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan bowed as they walked out. Suddenly, Qi Wenhan's cold voice rang out behind them, "Leave? Did I say that you can leave just like that? "
As soon as he finished speaking, the guards in front immediately blocked their way. Li Yanji and Guan Zhiyuan's hearts sank as they turned their heads stiffly to look at Qi Wenhan. Trembling with fear, they asked, "Young Master, do you have any other instructions?"
"Hmph, what I said just now was just a punishment for you, as the head of the escort agency, for your inaction as escorts. I haven't even settled the score of the two of you going back on your word and slandering Brother Ling Yi!" Qi Wenhan said with a cold smile.
As it turned out, he wasn't done! The corner of Lin Yi's mouth instantly curled up. Although he didn't think much of Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan, he was still a little unhappy to let them go just like that. However, it seemed that Qi Wenhan didn't intend to let them go just like that.
"Then … then what else do you want …" Li Guan and Guan Zhiyuan said in fear.
"According to the rules of the pugilistic world, there is only one consequence for going back on your word. I won't make things difficult for you, but I won't let you off so easily either," Qi Wenhan said coldly.
This time, he didn't just want to give Lin Yi a satisfactory answer. More importantly, he wanted to use this opportunity to make an example out of everyone in the escort agency!
