Ruonan didn't know why Zhu Lin suddenly got so angry. Listening to him yelling, Ruonan was very calm. She looked at Zhu Lin with a gentle gaze, and then said softly, "Boss Zhu, you don't have to be so angry. Xiao Lin is still your employee now, but he won't be in a while." After Ruonan's words came out, Zhu Lin's face looked very ugly. He asked, "What do you mean by this? Liu Ruonan, are you trying to snatch people from me?" "Boss Zhu, you're too serious." Ruonan reminded him, "It's true that Xiao Lin signed a contract with you, but you breached the contract and didn't pay him. It was you who breached the contract first. It's reasonable for him to terminate the contract with you." Zhu Lin stared at Liu Ruonan with wide eyes, his face became even worse. He asked, "Who said I didn't pay? I was just delayed because of something, and I haven't had time yet." Zhu Lin looked at Xiao Lin not far away, and he said, "You don't have to resist me like this. If you want salary, I will pay it to you right away." Xiao Lin glanced at Zhu Lin and didn't answer. Now it was not a matter of salary or compensation, but Xiao Lin had seen through Zhu Lin. Because he had seen through everything, he had lost confidence. Without confidence, he had no expectations at all. So now, Xiao Lin didn't want to pay attention to anything Zhu Lin said. Ruonan looked at Zhu Lin's anxious expression and said softly, "Boss Zhu, let's talk about the termination of the contract. It's no use trying to save the relationship now. Xiao Lin has already made up his mind to break up with you." Even if Liu Ruonan's words were right, they made Zhu Lin very unhappy. He glared at Liu Ruonan and said word by word, "Shut up. This is our company's business and has nothing to do with you." "We'll compensate you ten times the liquidated damages." Ruonan said word by word, facing Zhu Lin's angry gaze. Zhu Lin was stunned for a moment. For a moment, he thought he had misheard. He stared at Liu Ruonan with wide eyes, bewildered, and asked, "What did you say? Say what you just said again." Ruonan replied confidently, "I told you I'd compensate you ten times the liquidated damages. I think you're okay with that and are willing to terminate the contract, right?" Zhu Lin was completely stunned. He couldn't tell if Xiao Lin was truly valuable. He knew that Liu Ruonan valued him deeply, but he couldn't see what was so valuable about him. And now Liu Ruonan was actually willing to pay him ten times the liquidated damages—no small sum—for a man who was worth nothing. Seeing Zhu Lin's puzzled expression, Ruonan asked, "Boss Zhu, are you still unwilling?" Zhu Lin shook his head, then said, "You're willing to compensate me so much money, so of course I've made a profit. As a businessman, I'm willing to do it, but I don't understand." Zhu Lin looked at Liu Ruonan with a puzzled look and asked, "Can you give me a reason why you'd pay such a high price for such an unknown person?" Ruonan replied calmly, "It's simple, because his name is Xiao Lin." This reason further puzzled Zhu Lin, but Ruonan didn't give him a chance to ask. She said, "Well, since Boss Zhu agrees, can we sign the termination agreement now?" Xiao Lin wrote his name on the contract and handed Ruonan the pen, his eyes filled with gratitude. As they left Zhu Lin's office, Xiao Lin, curious and puzzled, asked, "Sister Ruonan, why do you think so highly of me?" Even he himself hadn't realized how capable he was. Looking at Ruonan, he was filled with curiosity. Ruonan's answer was: "Because you are Xiao Lin, I believe that you will work hard and make progress, and one day you will live up to my trust and support in you." Xiao Lin was very moved by Ruonan's answer. He nodded affirmatively and said: "Don't worry, I will work hard." Ruonan nodded, then took Xiao Lin to the bank. She deposited a sum of money into Xiao Lin's account. For Xiao Lin, who had been hungry for many days, it was a huge sum of money. Looking at the numbers on his bankbook, Xiao Lin was completely dumbfounded. He said sheepishly, "Boss, I haven't done anything yet, and you're giving me so much money. Isn't that a shame?" Ruonan, however, said with certainty, "You must accept it. What you need to do now is to make sure you don't have to worry about food and drink. Study hard. I've done some research on the class Zhu Lin signed you up for. There are many retired, well-known directors here. You'll definitely gain a lot from studying there. So, just focus on attending classes. I'll arrange a job for you after the class is over, okay?" Xiao Lin was naturally very satisfied with this arrangement. Liu Ruonan was very thoughtful. Only under such circumstances could Xiao Lin study with peace of mind. Zhuang Zhaodi went to see Lu Xing with a box of fruit. After not seeing him for a long time, Lu Xing was still in a very bad state. Upon entering the house, Zhaodi saw that it was a mess, with wine bottles scattered everywhere. Under such circumstances, Zhaodi was very angry and shouted at Lu Xing: "Lu Xing, what do you mean? If you go on like this, you will collapse. You need to cheer up now, do you understand?" Listening to Zhaodi's complaints, Lu Xing, who was curled up in the sofa, couldn't muster any energy. He stared at Zhaodi with cold eyes and ignored her. Zhaodi raised her voice and shouted at him: "Lu Xing, I'm talking to you, can't you hear me?" Zhaodi felt very strange. Why is he like this? She still remembered that when she first met Lu Xing, he was always very positive, which made Zhaodi feel like she had found a treasure. What happened to make Lu Xing so decadent? He seemed like a completely different person. He was so terrified. Zhaodi looked at Lu Xing and asked him uncomfortably, "What do you want?" What Lu Xing never expected was that he suddenly stood up, stretched out his hands and hugged Zhaodi. The abrupt action scared Zhaodi. She asked, "What are you doing?" Lu Xing begged, "Let me hug you, okay?" Zhaodi was very sad in this situation. She said uncomfortably, "Lu Xing, if you continue like this, I will give up on you." Although Zhaodi thought Lu Xing was good, his current state really made her feel overwhelmed. She was about to give up.
