Lu Xiao suddenly smiled, but his gaze was ice-cold as he looked at the man blocking his way.
"Zhang, you're laying it on a bit thick. The Supply Department's ledgers were half-burned. Did you really think you could push a temp out front to clear your name?"
"Or did you think blocking me would buy Liu Er some time?"
The forced smile on Zhang's face stiffened. He slammed the end of his wooden club into the ground.
"Deputy Commander Lu, you'd better have evidence to back that up. I'm on official business."
"The road was blocked. I was just kind enough to bring some men over to clear it for you."
"And 'official business' involves bringing men to block the road?"
Lu Xiao pushed open the car door and walked slowly toward Zhang.
Everyone knew the new Deputy Commander Lu was a battle-hardened veteran.
As a result, his presence was incredibly intimidating.
Zhang was visibly intimidated and took two steps back.
