Chapter 19
The day Mu Hanxia goes to resign is an overcast day The gray clouds are piling in the sky like the pushi+ng waves stacked together When she walks by the office area, the at at her, so looks with each other
She ignores all of them and keeps a calives a polite and humble smile as usual
Finally she gets to Meng Gang’s office Only his signature is needed as the final step of her resignation
Meng Gang is sitting in the coach reading the docu her, he quietly puts down his work
Mu Hanxia says, “Manager Meng, this is n it”
Meng Gang takes it over with a cale, but doesn’t pass it back to her immediately Instead, he says, “Takes a seat, let’s talk a little more”
Mu Hanxia always has cos before him She doesn’t really want to have more words with him, but on soether on her lap, she looks at him calmly
Meng Gang takes up the cup, has a sip of tea, and says, “Remorseful?”
“Regretful, but not remorseful”
Meng Gang shtly and says, “Mu Hanxia, you should understand, oals of our life can not be achieved merely by hard work You will need help from others, need to say what you don’t want to say, and need to bend your head when necessary, in exchange of sos You are s store assistants But you’re just an assistant after all Do you know that when you leave Le Ya, leave the nest that I’ve protected so well for you, and gets out there, you will have to work much harder than others, and bend yourself much more to possibly become as successful as others?”
Mu Hanxia says nothing
Meng Gang takes a puff at his cigarette The smoke slowly drifts to her face Does he do it intentionally or inadvertently, out of slight or reluctance to let go? It’s unknown
“You need to be ive yourself up You are shrewd but not snobbish enough If you don’t change it, you will be used by others again in the future and will have bigger stumbles”
“Manager Meng,” Mu Hanxia says slowly, “If the condition to get above people in this society is to live in a so nize oneself, I would rather stay poor and be myself But I don’t think it’s like this, at least not always There must be a lot of people out there who are like me There must be soence When that day comes, will you envy me?”
Meng Gang can’t hold back his laugh He laughs at the naivety and indomitable spirit in her words
“No,” He says, “this rule works anywhere”
Mu Hanxia also gives a snation document from the desk and turns to the door
“If” He suddenly asks behind her back, “In the future soher price, high enough to bring you success, as well as to destroy you, will you really refuse?”
Mu Hanxia is quiet for a moment, and answers, “I will never accept”

He Jing has co her pack up with reddish eyes
“These few stuff is all you have?” He Jing pats on her backpack
“Yeah” Mu Hanxia answers, “It’s not like I’”
He Jing feels a pang of sadness in her heart and wants to find fault with other things, so she says fiercely, “It’s all Lin Mochen’s fault! So sly, so cruel! You looked at him as a friend and he turns around and robs you of the lychees, selling the a complete victory and Le Ya is totally beaten But I see that even Meng Gang isn’t affected and is still sitting in his store one!”
Mu Hanxia is lost in thought for a moment, but then she says, “Actually in the first few days, I also had gripes against Lin Mochen But when I cal in his shoes, what’s wrong with his doing that? If it was ht have done the same It’s me myself who did not separate the professional stuff fro to be mad at for me at all Whether the lychee business succeeds or not, I will leave Le Ya all the sa every day?”
He Jing o explore next?”
Mu Hanxia puts on a brilliant smile at the words, puts her ar hard for ave o vacation for some time and then think about the next step Hey, we haven’t had nice vacations during the last few years Say, don’t you envy me?”
He Jing gives her a flick on the forehead as usual The worries on her face have dispersed, and she so have soet swindled or abducted”
“Yes, I will remember that”
After a ain, “Xia, I actually believe you should go explore the outside world You should not live like this, like me You deserve a better life”
