Chapter 845: A Noble and Virtuous Manner
When Ning Shu heard An Nuan’s accusations and saw her grievances-filled expression like ‘you’ve pushed me into a pit of fire,’ she felt extremely helpless.
She rubbed her forehead. “Zongzheng Bin wants to recruit you. Since he wants to recruit you, isn’t it natural for him to pay the five hundred thousand?”
It was a fact that An Nuan had borrowed money. Could it be that she should happily send An Nuan off for free?
“But what you’re doing is pretty much selling me to that man,” said An Nuan while crying.
Ning Shu: Flips table…
There was seriously no way to talk properly. Why did An Nuan feel like she was selling her? Ning Shu indicated that she couldn’t understand at all.
“I only told Zongzheng Bin that you owe me five hundred thousand. He wants to recruit you to be his secretary, so it’s only right for him to know that you owe five hundred thousand,” said Ning Shu mildly.
Tears continued to stream down An Nuan’s face as she said, “But I also have dignity. Have you considered my feelings in doing this? I’ll pay that five hundred thousand myself. There’s no need for that man to repay it for me.”
“Up to you. I don’t care who pays. I’m a businessman, all I care about is money.” Ning Shu waved An Nuan off. “Get out. If you burst into my office without any manners like this again, I’ll have you fired immediately.”
An Nuan’s tears spilled down. She felt very hurt and she said, “I thought that you were a good person but I really misjudged you. All you care about is money. What can you do with money? It’s not like you can buy everything with money.”
Ning Shu glanced at An Nuan, then scoffed. “Your younger brother’s life was brought back with money, and hadn’t you also begged me for the sake of getting money?”
Exactly what kind of mentality did she have to be able to lower herself for money, then turn around and show disdain for money and people who possessed money?
Did this make her noble and virtuous?
Ha. Ha. As if.
It felt like An Nuan’s way of thinking was seriously willful. She thought of things however she liked them.
When An Nuan heard what Ning Shu said and recalled how pitiful she had looked due to need for money, she felt like her dignity was completely crushed, especially since this person was even the one she owed money to. An Nuan felt extremely ashamed and also indignant.
Did he think that she wanted to set aside her pride and beg? If it weren’t for the fact that she had no other choice, who would choose to set their dignity on the ground for others to trample?
What An Nuan couldn’t take the most was Ning Shu’s attitude. It made her feel very embarrassed.
“I’ll pay you back for the money. Although I owe you money, that doesn’t mean that you can decide my life as you wish.” An Nuan wiped at her tears with the back of her hand, then turned and left the office.
Ning Shu shrugged. She couldn’t understand what An Nuan meant at all. Decide An Nuan’s life? How insanely bored must she be for her to bother about An Nuan?
Furthermore, she couldn’t understand what An Nuan was angry about at all.
She kept saying that she sold her. What the frick? Why was communicating so hard?
The person that owed money was actually acting like a big master?
Ning Shu rubbed her face in irritation. This was seriously annoying!
After this incident, every time An Nuan saw Ning Shu, her face would turn frigid and she’d ignore Ning Shu. Even when they occasionally encountered each other, she wouldn’t greet Ning Shu and would just brush past her with a cold humph.
Ning Shu just found this entirely baffling. Could it be that the way An Nuan was currently acting, not even greeting a superior, was the behavior of someone with dignity?
Ning Shu scoffed. Of course, someone that had the doting of the Heavens had no need to consider this kind of question. Her life would naturally be much better and much more comfortable than that of others.
Other people had to crawl and roll to scramble through life, but these kinds of people could live entirely inside their own worlds and do whatever they want. It was no wonder that some people would turn dark from envy.
While they worked hard every day without reaping any harvest, some people could actually be so blessed.
