It was a reasonable request, so the two policemen stayed in the club to ask Liu Shuming the questions.

Liu Shuming admitted to his behavior, but he insisted on saying that it wasn’t an act of well-planned revenge.

He was free last night, so he went to drink with his friends. He then saw the girl walking by the window by accident.

Although Zhang Weihong had warned Liu Shuming once before, he thought he would be fine as long as he didn’t cause trouble in their club.

The second he saw the girl, his anger got the better of him, so he had a discussion with his friends, and they followed her behind later.

The policeman asked right away, “What do you want to do to her?”

Liu Shuming stammered for a while. He then forced himself to calm down. “I simply wanted to beat her to teach her a lesson, and I had no intention to rob her of money.”

“You didn’t say that yesterday!” The girl couldn’t stand it. “You said that you would rape me before you kill me.”

Saying that, she turned to look at Feng Jun. “Right?”

Liu Shuming almost begged Feng Jun to help him at this moment with a pitiful look, but Feng Jun nodded with an expressionless face.

“What? It’s ridiculous! I stopped you in an alley, and people walked in and out once in a while. It’s impossible for me to do that! I simply wanted to scare you,” Liu Shuming argued.

The girl, however, refused to let him get away with it and she glared at him. “Who knows whether you prepared a car and planned to take me away after hitting me unconscious? Besides, I don’t think that you had the idea to return my bag.”

Liu Shuming was struck dumb for a long while, then shouted, “I didn’t succeed, and it’s an attempted crime. You can’t blame me for something I didn’t do. We must obey the law.”

A policeman had a bad impression of him and laughed at him. “The law? You don’t remember the law until now? Why didn’t you think about it when you tried to hurt the girl yesterday?”

The girl said with pride, “I’m not afraid to tell you that I found you through surveillance videos within a short time. Don’t you know how important the victim should be if she wants to do that for a small case?”

Hearing that, Liu Shuming felt scared. He had worked for years in the society, and he absolutely knew it very well.

There were too many petty crimes happening in a city every day, and the police normally only had time and energy to deal with serious ones.

If the girl was able to get the surveillance videos and find him within such a short time, she must have powerful connections.

Thinking of that, Liu Shuming begged her, “I’m sorry, I’m terribly sorry. Please forgive me this time. I really simply wanted to scare you.”

The girl looked at him coldly. “Terrible things could have happened to me if no one had given me a helping hand yesterday.”

Liu Shuming turned to Feng Jun for help again. “Feng Jun, please say something now. I know I’ve offended you before, and I promise it won’t happen again.”

Feng Jun gave him a side glance, but he said nothing. Feng Jun wasn’t kind to everyone. He would protect the reputation of their club to a certain extent, but he would never give a helping hand to his enemy.

“Alright, I think it’s enough,” said another policeman. “Manager Zhang, from what we know till now, it has nothing to do with your club, and we need to take him away now.”

Zhang Weihong nodded without hesitation. “I now announce that he’s fired, and you can do whatever you should do. You don’t need to care about our reputation.”

Afterward, she turned and said to Liu Shuming with an expressionless face, “I have already warned you to behave yourself, but you wouldn’t listen, and now, you deserve the punishment.”

The two policemen ignored Liu Shuming’s sad scream and handcuffed him then took him away.

The girl walked slowly behind and glanced at Feng Jun before she left. “Do you want me to forgive him this time?”

Liu Shuming heard it and paid all his attention to their conversation.

Feng Jun said at once, “No, you can punish him as seriously as the law allows. I support you.”

The girl was surprised. “Punish him as seriously as the law allows?”

“I never like him,” said Feng Jun without feeling guilty at all. “You came here on your own, and I already did my best to protect the reputation of our club. I don’t think I should help him too.”

The girl shook her head and walked away. When they were gone, Zhang Weihong waved her hand at Feng Jun. “Come to my office. Yueling, you should come too.”

Manager Guo and Feng Jun went to Zhang Weihong’s office on the second floor.

It was the first time for Feng Jun to enter here. The room wasn’t small, and it was more than 40 square meters, but the decoration was magnificent.

There was a large desk, a bookcase, a wine cabinet, a leather sofa against the wall, and two low long coffee tables. In addition to them, a few potted plants, two calligraphy and painting were all the rest in the room.

Zhang Weihong sat down alone on a single sofa with one leg crossed over the other. Her beautiful long legs swayed there, which made people feel dizzy.

“Have a seat,” she said. She then put on a serious expression. “Liu Shuming is in serious trouble now. Yueling, you must pay more attention to it, but don’t be involved.”

Guo Yueling seldom saw her leader being like that. “Does the girl have a powerful family?”

“She isn’t very powerful, and I simply don’t want to mess with her, but her friend is really influential,” said Zhang Weihong. “There was a girl in yellow among the four girls who came here the other day, and you must be respectful of her.”

Guo Yueling asked, “Have you watched the surveillance video?”

“Of course I did.” Zhang Weihong rolled her eyes. “If I didn’t recognize her, I wouldn’t be willing to be involved in this trouble. Yueling, you should be more careful at your work.”

“I’m sorry. It’s my fault.” Guo Yueling abruptly stood up in fear. Only now could she be sure that Zhang Weihong denied her solution the day before yesterday, not by accident, but on purpose.

She lowered her head and reflected on her behavior seriously. “Feng Jun takes his job very seriously, and I simply wanted to use him to scare other staffers? I’ll give him a higher salary from this month. How much more money should I give him?”

“You can make the decision on your own,” said Zhang Weihong. She then turned to look at Feng Jun. She slightly nodded at him. “You’ve done a great job and protected the image of our club. I’m very satisfied with your performance.”

Feng Jun smiled, and said, “I just did my job. It’s not a big deal.”

Zhang Weihong observed him and said, “Did you tell other people that I have a good impression of you?”

She was a proud woman, and she didn’t want to be used by Feng Jun to make rumors.

There were many men who always wanted to have a sexual relationship with her, but she never had any gossip.

Feng Jun was struck dumb for a second. He then said, “Well, I simply told other people that you like my good grass in QQ farm.”

“Ha-ha!” Zhang Weihong snorted with laughter. It was hard for her to be serious at this moment.

It was actually an excuse Zhang Weihong made to warn Liu Shuming.

The next second, she did her best to compose herself. “Don’t play on your phone during your work, but it seems that you didn’t plant grass today?”

“I did,” said Feng Jun with embarrassment. “Well, I just harvested it earlier, so you probably failed to steal it.”

Zhang Weihong tried to make herself look serious at this moment. “Really, why?”

However, her beautiful long legs were slightly shaking, which showed that she was in a good mood now.

Feng Jun said with a serious expression, “I just bought a new phone yesterday, and I tested some functions. It won’t happen again.”

“Alright.” Zhang Weihong dropped that unimportant topic. “You’ve done a great job this time, and you helped our club out of trouble. I should reward you. What do you want?”

“Thanks, but I don’t think it’s necessary.” Feng Jun shook his head. “I believe any staff member in our club would do the same thing.”

He wasn’t lying, and he really believed that.

Nevertheless, Zhang Weihong was the boss, and she didn’t want to hear any negative answers.

Therefore, she said, “You’ll be the leader of the security team in our club from now on, and you’ll have a reward of two thousand yuan.”

“What?” Manager Guo was surprised. “There isn’t a security team in our club.”

There indeed was no security guard in Hongjie Fitness Club, because all the fitness trainers were strong and muscular.

If anyone dared to cause serious trouble here, Zhang Weihong would arrange for some people out of the club to deal with it.

Zhang Weihong snorted, “There wasn’t in the old times, but there will be from now on. What? Do you think it’s a bad idea?”

Manager Guo shook her head at once. “No, no, of course not.”

Feng Jun was a little surprised. He easily had a promotion today, and it seemed that he only needed to marry a beautiful rich heiress to become successful now.

Actually, it was just a joke. He had a double degree after all, and the position of an unimportant leader in a small fitness club couldn’t satisfy his ambition.

He even wanted to quit after this month.

Even so, he must show a good attitude at this time when his boss was very nice to him.

When he walked out of the office, Guo Yueling closed the door and asked in a low voice, “Sister Hong, who’s the girl?”

Zhang Weihong said, “You don’t need to know about the details. Without Feng Jun’s help today, our club would have to close for a few days.”

Afterward, she gave Manager Guo a side glance. “I don’t know why you dislike Feng Jun, but you must carry out my order. Do you understand?”

She was quite serious.
