Ning Xiaofei stared at Chu Xinning, who looked helpless and eager across from her, holding the document and handing it to her, and was silent for a moment.
She didn't know why, but the woman in front of her suddenly reminded her of her mother.
Back then, her mother was seriously ill and was about to die soon. One day, she woke up in the morning and saw her sitting on her bedside fully dressed, asking Ning Xiaofei to go somewhere with her.
That day was the first time Ning Xiaofei went to Ji's house.
That day was also the first time Ning Xiaofei saw her mother kneeling to someone else. The woman, who was almost skinny and tormented by the disease, knelt in front of her father, crying and begging him to take in her daughter.
…
Taking a deep breath, Ning Xiaofei controlled her emotions.
"I... I understand how you feel, but... I really can't accept the money."
She could understand Chu Xinning's desire to help her son, but if she really got the income, how could she explain to Mu Tianye that with that guy's proud personality, it was impossible for him to accept Chu Xinning's money
Chu Xinning's right hand holding the document fell weakly to her side. There was no anger or disappointment on her face, but helplessness written all over her face.
Taking in her appearance, Ning Xiaofei's chest felt a little tight.
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. We have found a way to solve the money issue." Ning Xiaofei took a step forward and solemnly sent the envelope containing the check back to Mu's mother with both hands. "Please take this check back first." , I will convey this to Amano." She pursed her lips and added in a low voice, "If... I really need it, I will come back to you."
This sentence was of course a comfort. Without Mu Tianye's permission, she would never take money from Chu's mother.
Chu Xinning nodded lightly, reached out to take the check, put it back into her handbag, and stood up with the bag. She raised her face and stared at Ning Xiaofei in front of her.
"Thank you."
"... This..." Ning Xiaofei twitched her lips, "You... you are too polite."
She was a little uncomfortable with the other party suddenly being so polite to her.
"I will not bother you anymore."
Chu Xinning bowed slightly to her and turned towards the door. Ning Xiaofei hurriedly followed her and held the door handle. Chu Xinning turned her face again. Ning Xiaofei didn't realize that she would stop suddenly. Busy to stop.
Looking gently at the young face in front of her, Chu Xinning hesitated for a few seconds and finally spoke.
"I have said some outrageous things to you before and done some outrageous things... I'm sorry."
The other party suddenly apologized, which was really beyond Ning Xiaofei's expectation. Before she could think of what to say, Chu Xinning's voice continued.
"I'm not saying this to get your forgiveness. I just say these words to make my heart feel better. Amano is a hard-working child. You can accompany him through this difficult time. I... am very grateful. Thank you!"
Bowing to Ning Xiaofei again, Chu Xinning turned around, opened the door and walked out of her office.
By the time Ning Xiaofei recovered from the surprise and chased out of the office, she had already reached the end of the corridor. Ning Xiaofei stood in the corridor and opened her lips. She didn't know what to say, so she could only watch her figure disappear in the corridor. own sight.
The phone rang in the office. She sighed and turned back to the office.
After exchanging contract details with Emma, Ning Xiaofei took the signature pen from the table, frowned while holding the document in her hand, and signed her name at the end of the document seriously.
