Shi Xi took a deep breath, picked up the bag, and said, "I'm just here to deliver a gift. I'll leave after I do."

However, the woman still held onto the door, not wanting Shi Xi to go in.

Shi Xi: I didn't want to go in in the first place.

Instead, the director heard noises outside the door and came to check. "Who's out there?"

The woman tried to close the door, saying, "She's a waitress who asks for tips; I'll send her away now."

The director finished showering and came out wearing only a towel.

Upon seeing Shi Xi outside the door, the director exclaimed, "Oh! What a rare guest! I never expected you to deign to come here. What brings you here?"

Shi Xi smiled and said, "What happened before was my fault. This gift is an apology to you. I hope you will accept it and forgive my mistake."

Shi Xi handed the bag over.

The director has seen a lot of good stuff; he can tell roughly how much the items inside cost just by looking at that tape.

But he remained unmoved.

The director pretended to take out a gift bag, but instead reached out and touched Shi Xi's hand, saying, "Is this the gift you're giving me? Or is this the gift you're giving me?"

Shi Xi felt extremely disgusted, so she raised her hand and grabbed the director's index finger, twisting it upwards.

The director felt the pain and immediately started yelling, "You! Let go of me! Let go now!"

The woman standing nearby watched Shi Xi warily. Upon seeing this, she said nervously, "What are you doing? Let go!"

Shi Xi smiled and said, "Director, just put the gift away, and that'll be the end of it. What do you think?"

The director, writhing in pain, repeatedly said, "Okay, okay! I'll do whatever you say! Please, please let go of me!"

Shi Xi let go of his hand, hung the gift on the director's wrist, and said, "Have a wonderful evening."

After she finished speaking, Shi Xi stepped back on her own.

The director withdrew his hand, his index finger clearly looking broken.

But when I touched it, the bone wasn't broken.

It just hurts a lot.

The woman standing beside the director, trying to help him breathe, asked, "Why is this person so arrogant? Director, you should replace her!"

The director glared at the woman and said, "It's not as simple as you make it out to be."

If he could change it, he would have done so long ago.

The woman continued, "Don't you feel your dignity is threatened by her provocation?"

The director rubbed his fingers and wrists, squinting at the woman, and said, "Let's not talk about her anymore, let's have a chat first."

...

Shi Xi wasn't sure if her gift would be effective.

But she probably knew that this gift-giving wouldn't be very effective.

After all, they almost broke the director's hand.

What bad luck!

Shi Xi took out a tissue from her bag to wipe her hands, her eyes filled with disgust and aversion.

She doesn't like being touched like that!

As Shi Xi walked to the elevator and was about to go down, she saw Xie Yunzhou waiting there.

Shi Xi asked, "What are you doing here?"

Didn't you go back to rest?

"You really thought I wouldn't take you home?" Xie Yunzhou pressed the elevator button and asked, "How about it?"

Shi Xi said dejectedly, "The gift has been sent out, but it doesn't seem to have gone very smoothly."

Xie Yunzhou asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Seeing Shi Xi constantly wiping her hands, Xie Yunzhou's eyes immediately turned cold, and his voice was deep, "He took advantage of you."

"He touched my hand, and I almost broke one of his fingers. I guess we're even now," Shi Xi thought to herself. "I wonder how he'll retaliate against me next."

I don't know how to tell Han Chuan.
