Teaching Them A Lesson.

Hao Ren was holding Edgar Hamil by his throat, as if he was not a man but a chicken. The young man suddenly let go, and the latter fell on the ground panting and gasping for air. His eyes were stuck to Hao Ren, however, they were brimming with fear. He could sense that just now, Hao Ren really had the intention to kill him. 

This was true as well, Hao Ren did have the intention to kill him, but Han Lingshi was not the reason for his anger. Edgar Hamil was hindering his progress with the relationship. A good relationship meant better rewards from the system. Hao Ren wanted the rewards to have a better future to become somebody. It was his life's motive, otherwise he had already experienced a pitiful death, what was there to care about. 

Han Lingshi may be beautiful, or successful, but that was not enough, because some people searched their own worth and not their partner's.

Hao Ren squatted beside Edgar Hamil and said, "You are the second son in your family, the reason you are trying to court Miss Han is so that your family thinks you got them more profit than your elder brother, right?" 

Edgar Hamil gulped as he nodded, this was a public secret. Hao Ren was an average person but that did not mean he was estranged. He heard all sorts of gossips in the market when he rolled with his friend Jin. 

Hao Ren said, "You gave this assistant a few benefits and manipulated her to get you closer to Miss Han, right?" 

Edgar Hamil nodded again while his hand was rubbing his neck. Hao Ren sighed and said, "Your family supports you in this stupidity of yours not because they want you to move over, but the fact is they just want you to stay away from the family so that you do not get a chance to make trouble for your brother." 

Edgar Hamil opened his eyes wide and Hao Ren asked, "Do you want me to tell you how?" 

The former nodded and Hao Ren smiled and said, "If you cannot even figure this out, then what is the use of having a brain? Now, let me ask you, do you wish to take revenge on me?" 

Edgar Hamil did not know what happened but while he wanted to say no, his head moved in a nod. Han Lingshi frowned and Hao Ren said, "What if I call your brother and tell him that your ruckus in the office just made Miss Han give up on a multi million dollar project that she wanted to collaborate with Hamil studios. What would he or your family do to you?" 

Edgar Hamil froze, he realized that Hao Ren was not without a back up. If he was to catch heat of this matter, his brother would definitely murder him. Han Lingshi blinked as she looked at Hao Ren again. She did not expect this young man to have such wits. Of course she knew that he was bluffing but the impact was evident. 

She said in a cold voice, "Mister Hamil, you came in my office and you have given me enough trauma. The reason I did not wish to say what Mister Hao said was because I did not wish to bring families in this matter. I expect that you are also wise and know when to quit." 

Hao Ren pulled the guy up and sorted his clothes. He looked at a slightly red bruise under the collar and said, "Mister Hamil, unless you want this bruise to become a part of your soul, I hope you keep yourself in line. Or, forget about me, your own brother might put you to sleep forever. After all, the reputation of Young master Hamil, is not for show, right, Second Young Master?" 

Hao Ren did not hid the mockery and even emphasized on the word Second just now and cause a vein to pop up on Edgar's forehead. Hao Ren whispered, "Mister Edgar, in what way are you less capable than your brother? You both are the children of Hamil family. Why would Miss Han like a person who does not fight like a man but act like a coward?" 

Edgar was surprised and Hao Ren said, "If you prove your worth, would Miss Han be so foolish to refuse to you? Everyone needs someone at some point in life, no?" 

His words gave Edgar Hamil an inspiration. Then he clenched his fist recalling how this guy had humiliated him just now. Even if what he spoke was true, Edgar Hamil did not wish to spare this guy any courtesy, and even swore to enact revenge in his heart, but before he could do anything, he would have to deal with his family and specially his brother. 

In his mind, Hao Ren was correct, he was no lesser than his brother, then why did he end up in such a position. He stared at Hao Ren and said, "I will remember you." 

Then he left the cabin with even bigger strides than he had arrived. Mei was shocked, she wanted to chase after him when Hao Ren said, "Assistant Mei, how does a five year stay in prison sound to you?" 

Mei was shocked, and so was Han Lingshi. The former was pissed and asked, "What crime have I committed?" 

Hao Ren shrugged and said, "Accepting gifts from people in return of arranging meetings, breach of employer's trust, and sabotaging company interest. I am sure if we dug up some of the lower level employees would file a harassment complaints too." 

Mei opened her eyes wide, as she shivered, Hao Ren appeared to be a demon from the hell in her eyes. She knew that all these charges were possible and she could go to jail. Looking at her, Hao Ren asked, "Miss Han, do you have any overseas office where Mei could work?" 

Han Lingshi raised her brow and asked, "Why do you ask? Is it not better to throw her in the prison?" 

Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "Even men do not feel safe in prison, how would a woman live there? Humans are beings of desires. Miss Mei made a mistake, but she is not beyond redemption just yet." 

Han Lingshi thought and looking at Hao Ren she understood his motive. He wanted to make sure that Mei was far away from her but still under her watch. She thought about it and said, "She can take the office for assistant director, sales in the perfume company we have in Venetia." 

Hao Ren nodded and looked at Mei, who still could not understand what was going on. Hao Ren said, "If you did not reply to this proposal in one hour, we will call the police. Think about your family and your reputation." 

This sentence was the last straw that broke the camels back. Mei bowed ninety degrees and said, "President, I accept, I accept." 

Han Lingshi nodded and said, "You will get your things ready and I will arrange for your documentation. After two days, I do not wish to see your face in the country." 

Mei nodded and thanked her before leaving the place. Han Lingshi turned her gaze to look at Hao Ren who was focused on her office and a faint smile appeared on her face. Meanwhile, the voice of happiness echoed in Hao Ren's mind, *Ding, task completed, issuing rewards...*
