Admit Mistakes, Stand Firm When Punished

Shen Corporation.

CEO's office.

The recent stock market crash of the Shen family had left Shen Manni feeling troubled and restless.

To be honest, whenever she encountered something unpleasant,

Shen Manni would usually go play tennis, golf, or swim to relax.

However, this time, she suddenly wanted to unwind at a bar!

In all her life, she had never been to such places.

This would be her first time!

Simply put, Shen Manni wanted to go clubbing, but being timid, she didn't dare go alone.

So the unfortunate Xu Mo was dragged along to give her courage.

"What should I wear tonight?"

Shen Manni furrowed her brows, thinking that anything too revealing was definitely out of the question.

She made sure to prepare necessary self-defense items like pepper spray and stun guns.

Better safe than sorry.

If Xu Mo dared to act up while drunk, she wouldn't hesitate to give him a free electroshock therapy session.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

At one of Xu family's electronic appliance stores.

"According to our information, Song Ligang should be working the night shift here."

"I never expected he used to be an employee of our company."

Xu Shi was patiently searching through the crowd for a certain burly figure!

In her previous life, Lin Fan was difficult to kill not only because of his own abilities but also because he had a muscular brother-like figure by his side.

His combat skills were even a level above Lin Fan's.

After Song Ligang's death, his identity

Was uncovered by Xu Shi.

It turned out Song Ligang was a squad leader from Wolf Fang, an elite foreign mercenary group.

He had unauthorized accepted an assassination mission and killed a local bigshot's son.

This led to fierce retaliation, with people hunting him worldwide!

That organization's power was too overwhelming.

Even Wolf Fang couldn't protect him.

To escape the pursuit, Song Ligang had no choice but to return to his homeland to lay low.

He lived a very humble life.

Xu Shi had been puzzled about why someone like him would be willing to die for Lin Fan!

It turned out Lin Fan was the protagonist!

As for how Song Ligang and Lin Fan met,

Xu Shi believed that guy Lin Fan just had dumb luck!

After her reincarnation, what she needed to do was to get ahead of the game!

To snatch away the opportunities that should have belonged to Lin Fan!

In one sentence: That scum doesn't deserve it!

She remembered that in her previous life, when Lin Fan was about to die from gunfire, Song Ligang ran back to take the bullet for him in the name of brotherhood.

When Lin Fan fled, he didn't even look back.

"Hey, watch out!"

A voice called out.

Then a burly man standing two meters tall quickly scooped up a mischievous child.

Where the child had been playing, a Japanese rice cooker fell and crashed to the ground, becoming completely deformed.

Xu Shi looked in the direction of the voice!

Finally, she found the person she was looking for!

"Yu, Yu, my dear grandson, are you alright?!"

An elderly woman came stumbling over.

Without even saying thank you.

She hurriedly checked if the child was hurt.

The child, knowing he had done something wrong, didn't dare to be naughty anymore.

He stood there obediently.

Soon other store employees came over.

"What happened?"

It was just after the evening shift change, so there weren't many customers around.

Song Ligang explained briefly: "This child bumped into the shelf, I pulled him away, and then the rice cooker fell."

"Oh, I see." Then the employee pointed at the rice cooker on the ground, "Grandmother, your grandson made a mistake and needs to take responsibility. This Japanese rice cooker costs 20,000 Dragon Currency. Although the exterior is damaged, it can still be used and has warranty."

Upon hearing about the 20,000 compensation!

The old woman's expression changed!

It wasn't that she couldn't afford it.

In her view, her grandson was just being a bit mischievous.

He shouldn't have to pay such a high compensation!

Moreover, what does a child know?

He's just a kid!

The old woman counter-accused: "Nonsense! Which eye of yours saw my precious grandson bump into the shelf?"

Both Song Ligang and the employee were surprised by this turn of events.

The employee rubbed his hands together and patiently said, "Ma'am, we have surveillance cameras here. You should consider the situation before trying to lie."

"Call your manager over!" the old woman suddenly demanded.

Song Ligang and the employee exchanged glances.

Both looked annoyed.

Getting the manager wouldn't change the outcome, would it?

Then the employee went to find the manager.

While Song Ligang waited nearby.

He believed justice would prevail.

He hadn't done anything wrong.

Xu Shi suppressed her excitement and chose not to act rashly.

She felt the situation wasn't over yet.

Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can rise again.

Helping Song Ligang now wasn't clearly the right choice.

Soon the manager arrived.

"Little Liang, you're finally here."

Seeing Manager Liang, the old woman's face broke into a smile.

Manager Liang looked confused, "Third Aunt, what's wrong?"

The old woman didn't give Song Ligang or the employee a chance to speak.

She went straight to the point.

"Your employee carelessly damaged the rice cooker himself, and then falsely accused my Yu of doing it. Where's the justice in that?"

Manager Liang quickly understood what was going on.

He had been confused when the employee brought him over.

Without a doubt, it was another case of his relative's grandson causing trouble.

This Yu was notorious for being naughty at home!

He had caused many problems before.

20,000 wasn't a small amount.

Manager Liang glanced at Song Ligang.

Song Ligang wasn't yet a permanent employee and had no backing.

Manager Liang quickly made his decision - better you than me. His family had a good relationship with Third Aunt.

Although this was despicable, Song Ligang was just unlucky.

"Wu, you can go now."

The employee named Wu was stunned.

"But... manager..."

Manager Liang said sternly, "Are you done with your work?"

Wu gave Song Ligang a sympathetic look before leaving helplessly.

Manager Liang took out a pack of Yuxi cigarettes from his pocket and offered one to Song Ligang.

Song Ligang didn't reach for it.

His fists were clenched tight.

Facing this two-meter-tall giant,

Manager Liang felt somewhat nervous, but he pressed on for the sake of his family.

"Ligang, when you make a mistake, you need to own up to it. When you take a hit, you need to stand firm."

"Let's be frank here. Although you didn't directly break the rice cooker, you still bear some responsibility."

"Let's do this - I won't make it too hard on you. Your monthly salary is 3,000, so we'll take three months' worth. I'll chip in some myself, so you'll only need to pay 9,000."

Song Ligang's clenched fists made cracking sounds!

He glared at the family with anger and helplessness.

Who would have thought that a member of Wolf Fang, once feared by enemies, would one day be bullied by such insignificant people.

Even a tiger becomes vulnerable when it leaves its mountain.

His past glory only made his current predicament more pathetic.

At this moment, a sweet, childlike voice rang out.

"My, Manager Liang, what a high position you hold! Where did you learn to tell such blatant lies?"
