Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Su Tian and her friends have been in the port city for more than a month, and have even received their first paycheck here.
Sun Man looked at the thick envelope in her hand, her hands trembling.
"Sweetie, Dreamy, am I dreaming? I have 3,200."
Su Tian and Wang Meng were the same; this was the first time they had ever earned so much money.
Su Tian knew that everything they had achieved today was thanks to Su Ning and He Ci. After discussing it, the group decided to treat Su Ning to a meal.
The reason they only invited Su Ning and not He Ci was because they felt He Ci was difficult to get along with, and they were afraid that inviting He Ci to dinner would cause indigestion.
The three of them found a small restaurant that was crowded but within their budget. The dishes were served just as Su Ning arrived.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting so long. I just went to get something."
After Su Ning finished speaking, she handed the bags in her hand to the three of them. Su Tian took the bags and continued to be sarcastic.
"Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this. Do your uncle and aunt know how extravagant you are with money?"
"Wow! Ning'er, is this really a gift for me?"
Su Tian looked up when she heard Sun Man's exclamation and saw that Sun Man and Wang Meng each had a cell phone in their hands. She looked down at her own bag and saw that it also contained a brand new cell phone.
"Sis, take it out and see if you like it."
It's a cell phone, it would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted. She felt that Su Ning had been taking care of them since they arrived, so she couldn't possibly accept this phone.
"Do you have money to burn? Why are you buying these useless things that look nice? Take them back right now."
When Wang Meng and Sun Man saw that Su Tian had returned the bag to Su Ning, they were also reluctant to give it back to her.
"Ning'er, we appreciate your kindness. You've been helping us here all along. Now that we've received our salaries, we'll pay back the money we borrowed from you."
After Wang Meng finished speaking, she took out three hundred yuan from the envelope and returned it to Su Ning. Su Ning only took the money and did not take the bag containing the phone.
"I lent out the money and I'll keep it. The phone was a gift from Brother Ci. If you want it back, go find He Ci."
The three women exchanged a glance, deciding it was better not to go to He Ci. That man was very petty, as if they were afraid of competing with him for Su Ning.
Su Ning had thought of this when she arrived; only He Ci could scare them, and she wasn't lying—it really was He Ci who gave it to her.
These phones are new products from He Ci's company. Qi Yan packed five or six for He Ci to try out. He had a social engagement that evening, and he just passed by a flower shop and handed the phones to her, telling her to handle them as she saw fit.
Each employee in the florist's shop received one; these three were reserved for Su Tian and the others, so that it would be easier for them to stay in touch with each other after having cell phones.
Su Tian still didn't want to take advantage of Su Ning, so she asked directly.
"How much is this? Shall we buy it?"
Wang Meng and Sun Man really liked it, and they echoed their opinions.
"Ning'er, ask He Ci how much it costs, and we'll buy it from him."
Su Ning didn't want them to spend money, but they wouldn't accept it if she gave it to them directly. In the end, she came up with a compromise: Su Ning charged each of them 500 yuan to settle the matter.
This phone costs 1,500 yuan on the market, and Su Ning felt a little bad about charging them 500 yuan. In the end, after much persuasion, she paid for the meal herself.
After finishing their meal, the group took a walk back as usual, the dim streetlights casting long shadows of them.
Suddenly, a disheveled woman ran from a distance and knocked Sun Man down. Behind her, a group of fierce-looking men with sticks walked towards them.
The three of them quickly went to help Sun Man up. Before long, the group of people arrived in front of them, and one of the men grabbed the woman's hair and pulled her back.
"You bitch, trying to run away! He Kun is dead, let's see who's going to protect you now."
Su Ning looked up abruptly upon hearing the familiar name. Her pupils contracted. Not only her, but Su Tian, Wang Meng, and Sun Man also saw it. The woman was none other than Qiao Zhen.
Her face was covered in blood, and one of her eyes was covered in blood. The man then continued to wound her face.
