Almost at the same time, everyone in the classroom looked at Shi Xiaowen.

The two had just had an argument two days ago, and Shi Xiaowen publicly ridiculed Shao Mo for being hypocritical and pretending to be a rich girl. As a result, today Shao Mo's father donated several thousand yuan in consolation money to the entire department. The slap in the face came so fast like a tornado.

"Shi Xiaowen, shouldn't you apologize to Shao Mo? She didn't provoke you, but you said so many gossips about her behind her back."

When her name was called, Shi Xiaowen could no longer pretend to be dead and could only walk in front of Shao Mo with a red face.

"Shao Mo, it's wrong for me to gossip behind your back, but you know best why I targeted you and not others!"

Originally, Shao Mo didn't take this matter too seriously. It would be fine if Shi Xiaowen was willing to apologize, or not. But Shi Xiaowen insisted on being stubborn, so she didn't mind having a good talk with her.

"Shi Xiaowen, I don't know why you are targeting me. Why don't you explain it to me?"

Shi Xiaowen said angrily, "We are classmates. I am just taking a ride with you. Your family is so rich, but you still want to charge me for the ride. Do you need this little money? No, you look down on outsiders like me from the bottom of your heart, so you teamed up with your uncle to make up a fake identity to deceive me. So what if you are rich? Do you think you can tease others just because you are rich?"

Shao Mo looked at the other person calmly, "Shi Xiaowen, do you remember how you found me and what you said to me the day before the class activity?"

Shi Xiaowen choked.

"You said you have had motion sickness since childhood and you would definitely get motion sickness if you took the bus. Then you said you could pay the fare. The bus to Badaling costs two yuan and you can pay three yuan."

As Shao Mo finished speaking, discussions suddenly broke out in the classroom.

"Ah, so she was the one who offered to pay, but she turned around and accused Shao Mo of being stingy. This is too shameless."

Shi Xiaowen argued angrily, "I did say that, but you said at the time that we didn't need to pay, we were all classmates! Shao Mo, did you say that?"

Shao Mo nodded, "That's what I said at the time, but you didn't listen. When we got off the car the next day, you took the initiative to pay the fare. I thought you were the kind of girl who respected yourself and felt embarrassed to take advantage of others, so I didn't refuse. Am I wrong?"

Shi Xiaowen opened her mouth but couldn't say a word.

Whether she admitted it or denied it, she was not in the right.

Shao Mo was not going to let the other person go. "Shi Xiaowen, I don't know you well. I kindly agreed to your request for a ride because we are classmates. But you are not only ungrateful, but also slandering me behind my back. Now that we have come to this point, I will also make my position clear. No matter what difficulties or problems you have in the future, don't come to me for help again. Even if you come, I will refuse."

Shi Xiaowen's face turned red and white, "Don't worry, I will never ask you for any help again even if I die!"

"That would be best, and it would save you and me the trouble."

Although Shao Mo did not pursue the matter, Shi Xiaowen was still called to the department for a talk. The specific content of the talk is not clear, but Shi Xiaowen became much quieter and more restrained after that.

Since she had no classes in the afternoon, Shao Mo specially made some desserts and went to Shaw Group to express her filial piety.

When she arrived at Shaw Group, Shao Lin was still in a meeting, and the secretary led her into Shao Lin's office.

After the secretary left, Shao Mo took out the desserts and placed them on the table. Then she used the tea table in Shao Lin's office to boil water to make tea.

As soon as the water boiled, Shao Lin came back and was very happy to see her.

"Momo, why are you here?"

Shao Mo smiled and said, "Why did I come here? Don't you know what I am doing?"

Shao Lin smiled and pretended to be stupid, "Then you must be missing me, right?"

After saying that, he walked to the coffee table, picked up a pink daifuku and started eating.

"Momo, you came just in time. I'm hungry. Hmm, this is quite delicious. I haven't seen it before. Is this a new dessert you have researched recently?"

Shao Lin praised the food as he ate it, "It tastes really good, delicate and soft, sweet but not greasy. Momo, what should I do?"

Shao Mo looked puzzled, "What's wrong, Dad?"

"Your cooking skills are so good that I have become a picky eater. I used to think that food outside was not tasty, but now I find it disgusting and I can't eat it at all."

Shao Mo laughed, "Dad, there's no need to be so exaggerated even if you're praising me."

"Every word I said was from my heart. I can swear on the light."

Shao Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Okay, then I'll be your full-time cook and cook for you every day, okay?"

"That's not necessary. Just cook dinner once a week and come to see me occasionally like today. I don't want you to work too hard."

"Okay, no problem."

Hearing her answer, Shao Lin happily stood up and took out an envelope from the drawer of his desk.

"Momo, come here, this is for you."

Shao Mo took the envelope and opened it. It was a cash check for five hundred yuan.

"Dad, what is this?"

"It's your pocket money. Yiqian and his family get two hundred dollars a month. Now that you're married, your expenses will be higher. From now on, Dad will give you five hundred dollars a month."

Shao Mo returned the envelope and said, "Dad, that's not necessary. Ling Chuan and I are capable of making money on our own."

Shao Lin pushed the envelope back to her. "Your ability is your business. I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a father to you since you grew up. Just give me a chance and don't let me feel guilty towards you and your mother for the rest of my life."

Having said that, Shao Mo had no choice but to accept it.

Afterwards, Shao Lin enjoyed various snacks with peace of mind, while Shao Mo talked about donating money to the school while making tea.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Shao Lin calmly took a bite of the egg yolk pastry and said, "You were bullied at school, but you didn't tell me."

Shao Mo choked and said, "I wasn't bullied."

"If someone points at your nose and calls you a liar and forces you to apologize, if that's not bullying, then what is? Momo, you're just too easy to talk to and too soft-hearted, but it doesn't matter, I'm here. I know you don't like to be too ostentatious, so I just donated consolation money to your department. How about that, low-key enough?"

"I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about being low-key."

"There is no misunderstanding, otherwise I would have donated not just 5,000 but 50,000."

Shao Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she handed over the Kung Fu tea she had just divided, staring at the other person with her watery almond eyes.

"So, Dad, who told you about these things at school?"

"Hmm, this tea is good. What kind of tea is it?"

"Dad, don't change the subject. This tea is from your tea cabinet. Don't you know what kind of tea it is?"
