"When I was beaten once, I thought I had done something wrong, but when I was beaten and scolded a second time, I knew you didn't want me to eat those things."
"I don't have money, so I can't buy apples that I only take a bite of and snacks that I haven't eaten yet."
"You don't care about my feelings, you don't care that I want to eat, that I need to eat those things. You think that giving me a bite to eat and feeding me is the greatest gift you can give me."
"You don't know that I haven't been able to forget that apple I only took a bite of for the past ten years. I want to eat the whole apple."
"But I can't afford it because I don't make any money and you won't give me any money."
"My grades were not good, and I didn't get into the school you chose on the college entrance examination, so you forced me to work here and I couldn't continue my studies."
"You found the job and you hold the paycheck. I work so hard for a month, but I don't even get paid."
"If my workplace didn't provide me with food and lodging, I wouldn't have any salary and I would have starved to death there. You wouldn't even know how I died."
Qiao Ning was no longer angry. She sat on the chair and looked at Lai Di coldly.
"Why do I have your salary card? Isn't it because I'm worried you'll spend money recklessly, so I'm saving the money for you?"
"If you want to repeat your studies, you have to save money yourself. Otherwise, even if you repeat your studies, you won't study well and won't be able to get into university."
“Only when you know in advance the hardships of working will you cherish the opportunity to study.”
There was really no contradiction in what he said, but Lai Di almost wanted to cry after hearing it.
"Mom, I've been working for almost half a year and my salary is almost 20,000 yuan, all of which is with you. I'm going home for the New Year holiday and I want to ask you for 1,000 yuan to buy some things. What did you say?"
"You said that the money was my filial piety to you and Dad, and you had already spent it all, and told me not to think about it anymore."
"You're saying in front of so many people that the money is saved for me. Why don't you think before you speak?"
"I also know that you will take this money and won't give it back to me, so on New Year's Eve, I told you that I wanted to eat apples and asked you to buy me a bag. I will take it to the factory when I go back to work."
"What did you say when you heard I wanted to buy apples?"
Lai Di burst into tears: "I thought you would feel sorry for me after you embezzled all the money from work, and would be willing to buy me a bag of apples, but you didn't want to!"
"You said I only know how to enjoy life and spend money recklessly."
"So I went back to the factory and casually told Fugui that my biggest wish was to eat a red, sweet apple."
"Do you know how I felt when I was on my way back to the dormitory after working overtime and saw Fugui, sweating profusely, running up to me with a bright red apple in his hand, giving it to me and telling me to eat it quickly?"
A happy smile appeared on Lai Di's face: "I cried. I cried bitterly while holding that apple."
"For the first time, I truly experienced the feeling of being loved by someone. That feeling made my heart swell and sour, and I couldn't control my tears."
"So when he confessed his love to me and said he would buy me red apples for the rest of my life, I agreed."
"He knew I wanted to repeat my studies, so he gave me the tens of thousands of yuan he had saved from working in the factory for three years, and told me to use the money to repeat my studies when enrollment started."
"My parents, who gave birth to me and raised me, didn't even want to give me ten dollars. He was just a boy who liked me and had no blood relationship with me, but he was willing to give me all his belongings. So I took him and ran away. I wanted to get away from my family and be with him."
After Lai Di finished speaking, everyone understood why she was coaxed away by an apple.
Seeing Qiao Ning still chattering and calling Lai Di an ungrateful person, netizens also spoke up to fight back on Lai Di's behalf.
After Qiao Ning was so angry that she dared not speak, netizens also sighed.
Mumbling: [Actually, Lai Di's departure with Fu Gui wasn't about an apple at all. It was because she casually said she wanted a bright red apple that someone went and bought her the reddest, most delicious apple.]
A Koi Fish: [Laidi has lacked love since childhood, so it's normal for her to accept someone's love after they pay attention to what she says and express their affection for her.]
Honestly, I can't understand Lai Di's behavior. In my eyes, she's just a love-brained person.
[That's right, if a girl can be won over with just an apple, what else can she be but a love-brained person? Such a person will have a bad ending in the future, and it's all their own fault.]
Flying Pig Intestine: [Yo, yo, yo, someone actually says Lai Di is in love? If you had never had love since childhood, been bullied by everyone, and suddenly felt cared for and cherished by someone, I don't believe you wouldn't miss the feeling of being loved. That feeling of being cared for and cherished is truly wonderful, but some carbon-based creatures don't understand and just keep accusing others of being in love.]
Nan Xiang from Xizhou: [Everyone, please don't forget that after Fugui and Lai Di confirmed their relationship, he gave all his belongings to Lai Di and said he supported her in repeating her studies. If it were you, would you be able to do the same?]
Shiqian is not Qian: [Actually, in my opinion, the one who's in love is Fugui. Hahaha, I really support them being together!]
Yang Fugui felt a little embarrassed. Netizens said that he and Lai Di were doing well together and supported them. He was so happy!
Lai Di was also very happy. She was rich and powerful, so she didn't want anyone to misunderstand him and think that he was really a bad guy who cheated on girls.
"Master Jiang, Fugui and I have arrived in a new place. We plan to work for a while. When the high school repeater class starts recruiting students, I will go and sign up."
"I am an adult now. I know what I am doing. No matter what the future holds for Fugui and I, I will not regret the decisions I made today."
Jiang Tang looked at Lai Di and smiled slightly: "The reason you suffered more than ten years ago may be that you have the opportunity to meet wealth."
"You two met the right person at the right time, and I'm so happy for you."
Lai Di and Yang Fugui were very happy.
"Master Jiang, we, we are really a perfect match?!"
Jiang Tang nodded: "Of course, but you still have a long way to go and some difficulties to overcome. You must support each other and understand each other, so that you can have a bright future."
"Yes, we will. Thank you Master Jiang for your advice."
The two nodded repeatedly, indicating that they remembered what Jiang Tang said.
"Go and have a good rest. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, you can come to me."
Lai Di and Fugui were even more surprised. With Jiang Tang's words, they could do whatever they wanted without fear.
After sending two rockets and ginger candies to express their gratitude, the two of them logged off.
Qiao Ning, who was left aside, looked at Jiang Tang unhappily.
