Qiao Tianrui had a meaningful smile on his lips. He cleared his throat solemnly and said to everyone, "Master Wen is our lifesaver... our soulsaver! Her kindness to us is more than just a few words of thanks can repay."

Wen Wan felt even happier when she heard these words. After all, who doesn't like to be thanked and praised?

So... Wanwan is waiting for praise online!

Just as she was expectantly waiting for the next words, Qiao Tianrui led everyone off track, "So... let's kowtow to her together!"

Wenwan; “???”

Is her hearing failing? What was Qiao Tianrui saying? "Knock... knock?" What the hell is this?

This was not only different from what he had imagined, it was completely unrelated!!

She thought Qiao Tianrui was joking, but when she looked up, she saw that he looked serious.

Good guy, she exclaimed, good guy!

Is this person... serious?

Seeing these ghosts getting ready to kowtow to her together, she was so frightened that she quickly waved her hands to refuse, "No, no, no! This is really unnecessary!"

"Well...why not?" Qiao Tianrui couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw her panic-stricken look.

But he finally forced himself to hold it back and said seriously, "Such a great favor, I think you deserve it!"

"No, no, no! I don't deserve it!" Wen Wan quickly retorted.

She wasn't being polite. She was asking a bunch of old ghosts to kowtow to her. Wouldn't that shorten her lifespan?

She still wants to live two more years...

But Qiao Tianrui seemed to be arguing with her and responded seriously: "Why not? You are worthy!"

"I don't deserve it!!" Wen Wan shook her head like a rattle.

The two argued back and forth for a while, and just when Wen Wan was getting a little tired, Qiao Tianrui suddenly changed his words and said obediently: "Okay, you don't deserve it!"

Wen Wan: “???”

She looked at Qiao Tianrui in confusion, until he couldn't help laughing out loud, then she realized that she seemed to have been fooled.

"You're playing tricks on me!" Wen Wan raised her finger and pointed at her, accusing her with a resentful look on her face.

"It's just a joke, don't be so angry!" Qiao Tianrui said with a sly smile on his lips, comforting her in a joking way.

Wen Wan was a little doubtful about her life at this time. She used to tease others, but now others were teasing her. Her damn desire to win was suddenly ignited.

However, the burning didn't last long, as it was completely extinguished by Qiao Tianrui's next words. He said seriously, "It's true that I want to kowtow to you, but everyone's gratitude to you is real."

"Every one of us is very grateful to you. I think those victims we don't know will feel the same way as us after hearing the news that Fang Cheng has been arrested."

"Yes! Everyone is very grateful to you!" Li Ling was dumbfounded just now, but now she seemed to suddenly come to her senses and suddenly became the supporting role.

Qiao Tianrui nodded in agreement and continued seriously, "From a victim's perspective, you went all out to uncover the truth, rescued us from the cage we'd been in for nearly four years, and even helped us avenge our wrongdoing within a limited scope. Each and every one of these actions is worthy of our gratitude!"

"So... please allow us to solemnly express our gratitude to you."

As soon as she finished speaking, the ghosts, led by Qiao Tianrui, bent down and bowed deeply to her, shouting, "Thank you!"

The gentle and fair little face turned red in an instant, from the cheeks to the ears.

Come to think of it... she had indeed never seen such a big thank you scene before, otherwise she wouldn't be so shy despite being so shameless. But while she was shy, she was also very happy in her heart.

Unable to control herself, she smiled brightly, then waved at them shyly, "Come on, get up! Why are you being so formal? It makes me feel a little embarrassed!"

After hearing her words, the ghosts finally stood up.

Wen Wan raised her hand and gently patted her burning cheeks. After the temperature on her face dissipated a little, she explained seriously: "Helping others is a good virtue that everyone should have. I just did what I should do."

Qiao Tianrui laughed heartily upon hearing this. "Just now, I was speaking from the perspective of a victim. From the perspective of a friend and brother, I should be thanking you and Ah Heng."

"Actually, I feel pretty awkward myself. There are some things I'm embarrassed to say to Ah Heng. They always feel corny and embarrassing. Now that he's not here, I'd like to ask you to help convey his message."

Wenwan raised her eyebrows subtly, but still nodded happily in agreement.

Qiao Tianrui opened his heart and said, "After learning that Ah Heng had developed psychological problems because of me, I really, really blamed myself. Although I didn't personally see how you guys were trying to find the truth, I could sense it just by hearing about it. I must have caused you a lot of trouble."

"I dragged him into this without warning, and ended up putting him in that situation. I feel really sorry and even regret my decision."

"Because we are too familiar with each other, whether it is an apology or a thank you, it always feels a bit awkward, so we didn't talk in depth about this matter before."

Wen Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes. "What's there to be embarrassed about? You grown men are too shy to express your feelings to your brothers. You guys are really... so awkward!"

"Don't keep saying sorry. You know he won't blame you. And like I said just now, friendship is mutual."

"You helped him when he was in trouble and confused, so he resolutely helped you when you were in trouble, even if it meant risking his life to find out your whereabouts."

"So... none of you owe each other anything, so why are you saying sorry?"

Qiao Tianrui lowered his head and chuckled softly, "Let's put things in perspective. My previous help to him and me suddenly dragging him down are two different things. I just can't take his help for granted just because I know he won't blame me!"

Wen Wan smiled and nodded, then suddenly said to someone, "You're right. It's wrong to take things for granted between friends. Friendship can only be maintained through mutual giving. If only one person gives, they will definitely get tired."

"So those who take others' kindness for granted and then backstab their friends for their own benefit are truly bitches!"

Lu Xu, who was being scolded, just sat quietly in the corner, trying to reduce his presence.

But the more she tried to hide it, the more Wen Wan disobeyed her.
