Chapter 659 Song Sui Returns
Sang Ruo was so angry that she hung up the phone and cursed, "You're sick."
Talking to someone like him is a complete waste of time; he has no sense of flexibility whatsoever.
His phone call did not disrupt Sang Ruo's life. After resting for a period of time, Sang Ruo returned to the Chinese Studies Studio.
Several months later, Sang Ruo returned to the Chinese Studies Studio with a sense of disorientation, as if she had been in another world.
There are very few employees in the studio; basically, besides her and the original Song Sui, there are only a handful of people.
She first cleaned the studio. The once clean and bright display cases were covered with a thick layer of dust because no new works had been added for a long time.
Sang Ruo spent two hours working in the studio to restore it to its original state when suddenly someone appeared at the studio door.
"Sister Xiaoruo, are you still there?"
Hearing this familiar address, Sang Ruo came out and was somewhat surprised to see who it was: "Song Sui? What brings you here?"
"After I went back to my hometown, I heard that your clinic was bombed, Sister Xiaoruo. I was very worried, so I came here to check on you." Song Sui paused, then asked with some confusion, "Sister Xiaoruo, are you feeling any better?"
Sang Ruo nodded gently: "Much better, thank you for your thoughtfulness."
He has been out of work for almost four or five months, but he still thinks about her.
If it weren't for Liang Yuxin's incident, which crossed her bottom line, she would never have fired such an excellent employee so easily.
What a pity.
"Sister Xiaoruo, don't be so polite with me, it's what I should do." Song Sui lowered her eyes and asked somewhat cautiously, "Sister Xiaoruo, can I go back to work here?"
Should I continue working?
Upon hearing this, Sang Ruo was somewhat stunned, and said with a half-smile, "Song Sui, are you joking with me? Have you forgotten what you did before?"
He betrayed her before, and actually went so far as to commit perjury for Liang Yuxin!
She was so angry that she fired him.
He has a bad memory, he forgot, right?
“Sister Xiaoruo, I haven’t forgotten. This matter has been lingering in my heart for a long time, and I’ve been suppressing it for a long time.” Song Sui confided in her about the torment she had been going through during this period: “I had no choice but to do what I did to Liang Yuxin.”
“If Liang Yuxin hadn’t threatened me with my family, I wouldn’t have testified for her! Now, so much time has passed, and I just want to do something small for Sister Xiaoruo. I hope you can understand.”
Why are so many people asking for her forgiveness lately?
Chen Wei is like this, Gong Lian is like this, and now even Song Sui is like this.
What's wrong with these people? Did they all get poisoned from taking regret pills?
That's really interesting.
Sang Ruo frowned: "Song Sui, if you hadn't given false testimony for Liang Yuxin, I would have forgiven you. But you've crossed my line, and I simply can't forgive you."
“You know what Liang Yuxin did to me, and you know my past, but you still did it anyway. How can I forgive you?”
Her bottom line is Liang Yuxin.
Aside from things related to Liang Yuxin, she could forgive most things to some extent, but this was the one thing she couldn't forgive or understand.
Song Sui's eyes gradually dimmed, and his voice suddenly became low: "Sister Xiaoruo, I really didn't mean it. I beg you to forgive me. I had my reasons. Liang Yuxin threatened me with my family, so I did it."
“If you have your reasons, you can just tell me directly. Why embarrass me in court?” This is what Sang Ruo finds most unacceptable and what bothers her the most: “Unless you can be completely honest with me, you will not get my forgiveness.”
He wanted to gain her forgiveness without being honest about anything.
This is simply wishful thinking.
Song Sui stared at her intently: "When Liang Yuxin learned that my mother had come to the capital to see me, she threatened me with my mother's life, forcing me to choose between you and my mother. I was forced to defend her because of my mother."
"I was only trying to protect my family, Sister Xiaoruo. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me, okay?"
Looking at the empty traditional Chinese culture studio, Sang Ruo felt helpless: "You can come back, but your position will be downgraded while your job duties remain the same. Consider it punishment."
In other words, the job content remains the same, but the salary and position are significantly lower than before, meaning one person has to do the work of two.
Song Sui knew that it was already very difficult for her to agree to come back to him: "Thank you, Sister Xiaoruo, for letting me come back. As for the position, this is the result I deserve. I dare not ask for anything more."
His return was already a great favor from Sang Ruo, and he dared not ask for more.
Demanding too much is simply being unreasonable.
“Okay, in that case, you can continue to help me run the Chinese Classics Studio.” Sang Ruo’s health was not fully recovered and she was easily tired: “As for the salary, your previous salary is impossible, I will cut it by one-third.”
"As for the remaining part, I need to see your performance before I can decide whether or not to help you raise it back up."
Song Sui lowered her head: "Okay, thank you, Sister Xiaoruo."
Although Sang Ruo agreed to let Song Sui return, she was still quite wary of him because of the mistakes caused by her previous negligence.
Especially when she was designing a sculpture, she would lock the door and draw the curtains, never giving him the slightest chance to peek in.
Seeing her do this, Song Sui felt a little sad, but when he thought about everything he had done before, he suddenly felt relieved.
Let's just focus on doing our own thing.
Don't upset Xiaoruo.
Just as Sang Ruo was getting back to work, Bo Jinyan was busy with the reconstruction of Sang Ruo's clinic, while Zhang Ye was working even harder, not only having to do his own job but also having to supervise the construction at the original site of the clinic.
When Zhang Ye went to the construction site after get off work, he found that a worker was using wooden boards instead of steel bars and cement to serve as a partition on the second floor.
He immediately grabbed the man and asked, "Hey! Who gave you permission to use wooden planks as a partition? Don't you know there will be problems with the load-bearing capacity?"
The worker who was caught was baffled: "You've only paid so little, and you still want good materials? Then go talk to the material suppliers! What's the use of talking to me! I'm just here to build!"
As for other matters, how could a mere worker like him possibly decide them?
Of course, he would do whatever the foreman gave him.
Doing your own job well is enough; why complain about this and that?
