PM, quitting ti.
When Shi Nuan was packing up, she instinctively glanced out the window.
It was still raining heavily outside, with no sign of stopping.
She picked up her bag and was about to grab the umbrella under her desk when her phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a text ssage from Song Yansheng: I’ve sent soone to pick you up at the Shi Family entrance, you can head straight down!
As she was about to reply, another ssage popped up, still from Song Yansheng.
— This ti, it’s a driver unfamiliar with the company, so you don’t have to worry about being recognized!
In fact, Shi Nuan originally wanted to decline, but seeing Song Yansheng’s thoughtful efforts, she couldn’t bring herself to refuse.
So she eventually gave in.
Shi Nuan didn’t use her umbrella, but she overheard a colleague complaining about the heavy rain and not having an umbrella, so she lent hers to the colleague.
The colleague was filled with gratitude!
Before going downstairs, Shi Nuan made a trip to the restroom. Whether it was by chance or not, she unexpectedly ran into Sister Chang there.
Sister Chang looked a bit embarrassed upon seeing her.
The last ti, she had risked giving Shi Nuan evidence of Li Guirong’s affair.
But days had passed, and Shi Nuan hadn’t taken any action. She even wondered if she’d given the evidence to the wrong person.
Occasionally during work hours, she would intentionally avoid Shi Nuan, trying to minimize contact as much as possible.
She also asked her husband why Shi Nuan, despite having the evidence, seed unbothered and whether she wasn’t planning to do sothing about it.
Her husband, being more perceptive, said, "Madam was a wise woman in her day, and I believe her daughter is no different. I still think her reason for interning at the Shi Family must have a purpose. We were right to give her that evidence..."
"But she’s being so restrained now..."
"Just temporarily restrained..." her husband said. "Since she’s here with a purpose, before she’s fully prepared, she won’t let anything slip. We don’t need to worry. While we don’t know Miss Shi Nuan that well, we do know the Madam, don’t we? Even if she does nothing, it only ensures your safety, so what’s there to be afraid of?"
Sister Chang thought it over and realized she was being overly anxious.
But her husband had also advised her to avoid Shi Nuan whenever possible, at least temporarily.
Although Li Guirong and her daughter seldom ca to the company, they did have quite a few informants there.
If they found out she was close with Shi Nuan, there was a risk that the mother and daughter would hold a grudge in the future.
Life wasn’t easy, and she was just an ordinary person wanting to live her life steadily.
As for what Shi Nuan wanted to do or intended to do, it wasn’t her concern, nor could she do anything about it.
The only thing she could manage was to quietly step back and not get involved.
So suddenly encountering Shi Nuan now, she was a bit nervous inside.
She smiled at Shi Nuan, greeted her briefly, and intended to leave, but she didn’t expect Shi Nuan to call her back.
Sister Chang bit her lip, looked at Shi Nuan, and asked, "Miss Shi Nuan, is there sothing you need?"
Shi Nuan softly replied, "Yes. But it’s not a big deal. I just wanted to say that Sister Chang doesn’t need to deliberately avoid in the future. Sotis the more deliberate you are, the more you may arouse suspicion... I know what you’re worried about, but rest assured, no matter what happens in the future, I will never implicate you... Absolutely not!"
