"I should be the one to say sorry. I was inconsiderate. Now we are friends. Are you willing to be friends with me?" Guan Jibai asked solemnly.
She was actually quite guarded. She had many friends, but few close ones. She was afraid of being betrayed and hurt if she gave her feelings. Therefore, she didn't dare to open up to anyone and offer her friendship.
Now, she wants to take the first step and make her first close friend.
"Yes, of course." Niu Shanshan looked up in surprise.
She had never thought that even after all this, Guan Jibai would still be willing to be friends with her. A true friend wasn't one who only wanted to exchange interests.
Guan Jibai chuckled and handed her the apple that Guan Wenbai had just peeled. "I'm treating you to apples. After you eat my apple, you'll be my good friend."
"Um!"
Niu Shanshan excitedly took the apple and took a big bite. The unique fragrance and sweetness of the apple instantly moistened her mouth, allowing her to put aside all her troubles and smile from the bottom of her heart.
"Thank you, Xiaobai. From today on, I owe you my life."
"You don't owe me anything." Guan Jibai smiled back, "I have responsibilities, and you are implicated by me."
"No! I have a feeling that even without you, I might have ended up like this."
Guan Jibai was stunned, but didn't say much. Instead, he changed the subject.
"I still have to fulfill my promise. Although Director Hao fired you, the procedures are not yet completed. It's not difficult to come back. Do you want to come back?"
"Do you have a solution?"
"Hmm!" Guan Jibai pointed outside the door mischievously. "I just need to go tell Brother Jingliang's mother that if you don't help, I will have a relationship with your son. She will promise to help immediately. It's easy. Director Hao will also listen to her, so we are not afraid."
Niu Shanshan widened her eyes in astonishment, "It... is possible to be like this?" She was not a pedantic person. Having experienced hardships in the countryside, she understood the wisdom of the little people and the roguery of survival even better than Guan Jibai.
But...isn't this too simple?
"That's right! Not only can you go back to work, but Director Hao will also be held jointly responsible!" Guan Jibai smiled like a little fox who had stolen honey.
Niu Shanshan was dumbfounded and looked at her stupidly.
"When you get to work, Liang Wenjing will get slapped in the face. Her face will be swollen. The more arrogant and complacent she was yesterday, the more embarrassed she will be tomorrow. From now on, no one will dare to follow her when she speaks."
This will be a major blow to Liang Wenjing's prestige.
These things cannot be seen in the short term, but everyone has ideas in their minds and they really exist.
"I...I was...still begging so much yesterday, so..."
"When you encounter something in the future, don't dwell on it. Stop and wait to see if there are other solutions. If not, try another path. There are so many paths, there will always be a way out."
Guan Jibai gave his persuasion from the bottom of his heart.
This is also Niu Shanshan's shortcoming, which must be corrected. If not, she will still be stuck in a dead end.
Niu Shanshan's eyes welled with emotion, and her worldview suddenly brightened. Growing up, no one had ever told her about this kind of person. They told her there were many paths, and if one didn't work out, she could always try another. Since she was little, her parents had only scolded her for being a money-loser, but she refused to give in and worked tirelessly.
When I grew up, I was squeezed so hard that even breathing felt tiring.
Yet, at that moment, looking at the pale yet delicate and beautiful girl sitting on the hospital bed, Niu Shanshan suddenly felt as if a window had been opened to her soul. The suffocating world suddenly became brighter, and all the fatigue, exhaustion, anxiety, and fear could be overcome.
