Intimidation

Zhang Zian knew that Little White refused to take this lying down, similar to what Vladimir would've done.

No matter who the leader was, they were willing to compromise and concede defeat when faced with hardships. It was similar to how the stray cats and stray dogs called a truce when threatened by the insect disaster. However, they couldn't compromise on certain major issues. One step backward and everything could go downhill from there...

As for Little White, he wasn't able to compromise at the moment.

This wasn't for money and food, but life and dignity.

The Local Dog jumped out of the car, took a few steps forward, stopped, and stared back at Zhang Zian as if waiting for him to follow.

Zhang Zian started the car. However, he didn't turn on the high beam and only drove with his low beams turned on and stumbled forward to avoid being noticed.
