“Yes, I know.” Su Liang didn’t want to be entangled with Lan Piao too much, so she agreed.

“By the way, I’ve checked with the director about your mother’s illness. She needs surgery. There’s an 85% chance that she’ll almost completely recover from the surgery.” Lan Piao watched Su Liang’s reaction, then she continued, “Just the time of the surgery and the surgery fees will depend on your performance.”

“Yes, Madam. Don’t worry. I will cooperate with you in whatever you need me to do.” Su Liang looked at Lan Piao and said.

Upon seeing Su Liang’s docile look, Lan Piao felt much better. “Alright, you can go up. I’ll tell you when the operation time is set.”

“Yes, Madam. I’ll go back to my room first.” Su Liang bowed to Lan Piao and said.

Although Lan Piao had affected her mood today, it was still good news.

When she returned to her room, Su Liang took off her dirty clothes to avoid touching the tattoo and carefully took a shower. She didn’t have to go to work this morning, so she wasn’t in a hurry to take a shower. She slowly came out and lay on the bed to sleep for a while. She slept until the alarm rang in the afternoon before she woke up. She stretched and changed into clean clothes. Su Liang’s bad mood because of Gu Han’s words finally dissipated a lot.

When she went to work in the afternoon, Su Liang felt different as soon as she entered. The atmosphere seemed to be very tense. No one gathered together to gossip. They were all busy with their own work in a hurry. Seeing Su Liang come in, they only looked up and continued to work.

Su Liang was confused. She approached Li Pei and asked in a low voice, “What’s going on in the shop?”

Li Pei quietly turned around. After making sure that no one heard him, she said in a low voice, “You know Zhang Qiang in our shop, right?”

“I… I know him. What happened to him?” When Su Liang heard Zhang Qiang’s name, she remembered what had happened last night. She had been drunk and brought out by Gu Han last night. She didn’t know what happened after that, but now, hearing Li Pei’s words, could it be that Gu Han had done something?

“He… I don’t know who he offended. He was fired, and he even had to pay a settlement with the shop for several months. Apparently he took something from the shop and left in an ugly way,” Li Pei said to Su Liang.

“Although I don’t usually like him, he was really miserable this time. This time, he probably won’t even be able to find a job.”

“Really? So miserable,” Su Liang murmured in a trance. Gu Han’s words last night had broken Su Liang’s heart. She had made up her mind to keep a distance from him in the future, but she didn’t expect to hear this news today.

Why did Gu Han do this? Su Liang was confused. She didn’t say that she had seduced him, so why did he stick up for her?

“Su Liang, what are you thinking about?” Li Pei waved her hand in front of Su Liang and asked.

“No… nothing,” Su Liang came back to her senses and said.

“By the way, Su Liang, why did you leave so suddenly yesterday? Fortunately, you left. Otherwise, that villain Song Lei might have done something to you,” Li Pei said.

“It can’t be that bad. Song Lei shouldn’t be that bad,” Su Liang said with a smile.

“You’re just too kind. Luckily, I’m here to protect you.” Li Pei patted her chest and proclaimed to Su Liang.

Su Liang couldn’t help but burst into laughter when she saw Li Pei like this. “How can I repay you for being so kind?”

Su Liang rarely let her emotions out after her mother got sick. Today, she couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Li Pei’s words.

“Repay me with your body,” Li Pei said to Su Liang, who was smiling happily..
