Zhang Yongchang was somewhat puzzled.
“Well…”
Zhang Yongchang chuckled twice, looking at Zhuang Qingning with a face full of apology, “I really don’t know what’s gotten into the shop manager. I’ll have a good talk with him and make sure he apologizes to you, Miss Ning.”
“Indeed, the shop manager is to blame for this incident. You’ve suffered greatly, Miss Ning, and I apologize on his behalf.”
As Zhang Yongchang spoke, he bowed to Zhuang Qingning.
“Uncle Zhang, this is totally unacceptable.”
Although Zhuang Qingning disliked Feng Yongkang, she was greatly indebted to Zhang Yongchang who had helped her many times. She quickly helped him steady himself, “Uncle Zhang, you had nothing to do with this. I can’t allow you to apologize for me.”
“I understand that Uncle Zhang has been with Fushun Tower for many years and has a deep friendship with Manager Feng. Out of respect for the bond you’ve built over these many years, and your feelings toward Fushun Tower, Uncle Zhang naturally wants to take responsibility for this issue and plea for me.”
“I’m truly angry about what Manager Feng did today, but I am clear-minded. I understand Uncle Zhang’s dilemma and appreciate our friendship.”
“No matter how we handle this issue today, out of respect for Uncle Zhang, I won’t quibble with Manager Feng. From now on, my shop will continue supplying goods to Fushun Tower as usual. But about today’s vegetables…” Zhuang Qingning gave a smile, “They were intended as a gift for you, Uncle Zhang. You can handle them however you like.”
At her words, Zhang Yongchang felt his throat tighten.
In everyday life, Zhuang Qingning is kind and soft-spoken, always meeting people with a smile. If you don’t know her well, you might think she’s an easy-going person. But Zhang Yongchang knows that Zhuang Qingning is in fact a person of clear boundaries. If you don’t provoke her, all is well; but if you do, she won’t let you get away with it.
Isn’t Feng Ershu an example?
What about Mrs. Bai and Xiao Liuzi?
But today, Zhuang Qingning, with her strong character, downplayed a great offense, swallowing her anger without complaint, and even managing to wear a smile.
And this, all out of respect for his face.
It seems that Zhuang Qingning is very grateful just because he once helped her out.
Zhang Yongchang sighed heavily, the corner of his mouth twitching.
“Miss Ning, I owe you one,” Zhang Yongchang said, his voice somewhat hoarse.
“Interpersonal relationships involve give and take. There’s no debt between us, especially not with you, Uncle Zhang”
Zhuang Qingning smiled, “However, let me be clear with you, Uncle Zhang. You know my character; I’m not someone who can be easily provoked. I won’t take this incident to heart, but this is a one-time thing.”
“If something like this happens again in the future, I won’t let it go easily. And I won’t care whose face I lose, Uncle Zhang. Please understand that.”
This will not happen again.
Tolerating once is kindness; tolerating repeatedly is weakness.
