"Okay, don't worry! What happened last night was an accident. He was with me the whole time, so nothing went wrong. Everything is fine." Shao Wanwan smiled and patted her shoulder.

"That's right! If anything happened to you, Zheyuan could tear me apart with his bare hands." Jiang Liyan reverted to her usual carefree self, as if the tearful version of herself from before had never existed.

Shao Wanwan knew that she had already fixed it, so she didn't say anything more.

Jiang Zheyuan knew that Jiang Liyan planned to escape, and he was far less calm than Shao Wanwan.

"What? What are you going to do? Don't be ridiculous. You have to work out the contract for the full term. Who will protect Wanwan if you do this? If everyone is like you and has no sense of contract, how can we do business? Impossible. I absolutely disagree." Although Jiang Zheyuan didn't get angry, he exuded authority.

Shao Wanwan really wanted to ask him how old he was.

Is it reasonable for a nineteen-year-old to have such an aura?

Jiang Liyan glanced at Shao Wanwan, shrugged, and knew that Jiang Zheyuan would definitely not agree.

So her attitude was particularly good.

She rubbed her hands together. "President Jiang, Boss Jiang, let me introduce you to someone more reliable than me. If I don't leave, I really can't live anymore. They're trying to force me to my death. Really, Zheyuan, you're the best, Zheyuan."

Jiang Zheyuan was extremely principled and remained completely unmoved.

He only recognizes contracts.

Jiang Zheyuan could not truly understand what Jiang Liyan had gone through and faced. He only knew that she had been hired by him to protect Shao Wanwan, and now that she was leaving halfway through, Shao Wanwan's safety was in question.

Jiang Liyan looked at Shao Wanwan.

Shao Wanwan has made up her mind to help this person to the end, and to see it through to the end.

“I agreed to it. The storm surrounding the rumor has passed, and I am safe now. Besides, I can’t possibly need someone to follow me for the rest of my life.”

It's really inappropriate for someone to always follow you around at school. Besides, she heard that because she was attacked, many places on campus have installed security cameras, especially the dark corridor in the library, which has now been lit up. Now, students can go to the library without having to go in the dark.

And she also wants to do business!

It's actually very inconvenient for someone to have heels.

Shao Wanwan decided to buy an alarm and a bottle of pepper spray so that she could protect herself immediately if she encountered any trouble.

My activity range is not very large, and after the school's severe punishment, such a serious incident as the ambush should not happen again in the short term.

Jiang Zheyuan looked at Shao Wanwan, his eyes softening considerably.

But being gentle doesn't mean giving in.

He analyzed the situation with Shao Wanwan, "Wanwan, although the school has dealt with the ambush incident seriously, we demanded that the school severely punish the people who spread the rumors. We must have offended some people. You are still not safe during this period. My contract with my senior sister is until April, which means that after the winter vacation, this matter will have completely cooled down and you will be completely safe before you can resume your freedom. I know you don't want anyone following you, but there is really no other way. I can't bear to see what happened before happen again. Just for my sake... and also for your biological father, and for Uncle Shao."

Uncle Shao was reluctant to leave because he was worried about his precious daughter.

Although the house he left for Shao Wanwan was the last place he saw him.

He hadn't dreamed of Uncle Shao for a while, but he knew and felt that Uncle Shao hadn't left.

If Uncle Shao could see everything.

He must be heartbroken to see his beloved daughter framed and attacked.

Jiang Zheyuan felt guilty for not protecting her.

It wasn't just for Uncle Shao, but also for himself.

He couldn't afford to lose Shao Wanwan again, for whatever reason.

The tragedy of his previous life was too shocking; it was practically Jiang Zheyuan's nightmare. He worried that his abilities were limited, that he couldn't defy fate, and that he couldn't save the person he loved.

Even if I were to live a second life, I still couldn't change the fate of the people around me.

Jiang Liyan's life was difficult, but once she signed the contract, it became her responsibility.

"Besides, a person who doesn't respect contracts can't do anything well. You're my senior, and I've paid you a high wage, given you half the fee as a deposit, and even given you a big red envelope. It's not for you to break the spirit of the contract. It's all in black and white. You can leave when you find someone who can completely replace you, or even someone who is better than you in terms of skills and character. Otherwise, you have to work until the contract expires... You can live in the dormitory and not see your family. I can help you keep them away."

Jiang Zheyuan had already backed down, but he didn't trust the character of the others.

He knew Jiang Liyan's difficulties, but a contract is a contract.

Furthermore, if you want to gain respect from others, you must always understand that in an employment relationship, no one is obligated to indulge you.

Shao Wanwan knew she couldn't persuade Jiang Zheyuan anymore.

But it really was Jiang Liyan's problem, and she really couldn't say anything more.

Jiang Liyan never expected that Jiang Zheyuan, who was usually easy to talk to, would be so unreasonable. Her face burned with embarrassment, feeling as if she had been lectured but could not refute him.

She calmed down and said in a low voice, "I understand. I won't mention leaving again before the contract expires. You are all very kind, especially Wanwan. She comforted me, took care of me, and was very understanding. I didn't even care about her safety. I'm such a terrible person."

Shao Wanwan was caught in the middle and felt a little awkward.

She could understand Jiang Liyan, but she also felt that Jiang Zheyuan had done the right thing.

If my stance is not firm enough, it's best not to speak.

Jiang Zheyuan is the employer; let the two of them argue it over.

"Okay, just finish this deal well. Where do you want to go to develop your career? I'll help you write a letter of introduction, and if I know anyone there, I'll put in a good word for you." Jiang Zheyuan regained his cool demeanor, once again showing his thoughtful side.

Shao Wanwan's stomach had been rumbling for a while.

Jiang Liyan wasn't in the mood to go to dinner with them, and said, "If you're coming with me, I won't go. I'd rather you two be alone than be a third wheel and annoy people."

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.

"You're too strict," Shao Wanwan teased.

"Is this what you call strict? Don't you also want to do business and make a lot of money like my uncle? You need to understand that your thinking will be shaped by your position. You're empathizing with Jiang Liyan now because you're standing on the side of her friend, because you're both women. But as a boss, your employees have their own lives, and with lives come worries, but those worries shouldn't be confused with work. Making the company bigger and stronger, and providing them with good salaries and good returns, is what a boss should do," Jiang Zheyuan said in a flat tone.
