Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom-Chapter 147: Am I Softhearted?

Lv Qinqin obviously didn’t expect that Jiang Ran would actually tell her to leave and just let her go like that. With her mouth half open, she looked at Jiang Ran in shock.

Soon, Lv Qinqin’s eyes turned red, and tears started to fill her eyes.

Jiang Ran stood cold-faced to the side. To someone who didn’t know the specifics, seeing Lv Qinqin looking so pitiful, it would seem like Jiang Ran was bullying her.

Jiang Ran was already the center of attention in the courtyard. Wherever she was, people would always glance in her direction from time to time.

When Jiang Ran walked over to Lv Qinqin, someone noticed already, but no one came over, they just kept watching secretly.

Now, seeing that Lv Qinqin was actually crying, they all openly looked over.

People are curious by nature, especially teenage girls, who are at the height of their curiosity.

Being watched by them, Jiang Ran did not soften her expression.

"This matter is settled. I will give you the money later."

Having said that, Jiang Ran walked to the door and opened it.

Jiang Ran went inside, but not to get the money.

It was just two days’ wages. She could easily take it out from her pocket.

Jiang Ran entered the room just to gather the sketches on the table and lock them in the drawer.

The situation with Lv Qinqin served as a reminder to Jiang Ran.

No matter the situation, never test human nature.

Especially with these teenage girls, who are easily tempted.

Jiang Ran did what she should do and gave no one the opportunity to take advantage. If anyone still tries, then it’s truly a matter of character.

After securing the sketches, Jiang Ran took out the money and came out to give it to Lv Qinqin.

Lv Qinqin was still standing where she was, sobbing and wiping her tears.

Seeing Jiang Ran go in and come out, and actually handing her the wages, Lv Qinqin cried even louder.

Looking at the money Jiang Ran handed over, Lv Qinqin bit her lip, "I don’t think I did anything wrong, but I’ll take what’s mine!"

With that, Lv Qinqin swiftly reached out and grabbed the money, clutching it as she ran quickly towards the courtyard gate.

At the doorway, she nearly ran into Pei Yang, who was pushing the door open to come in.

Pei Yang, although startled, quickly stepped aside and avoided colliding with Lv Qinqin.

Watching Lv Qinqin run out swiftly, disappearing from sight soon after, Pei Yang withdrew his gaze curiously and, while walking inside, asked Jiang Ran, "Sister-in-law, what happened? Why was she running?" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Jiang Ran didn’t hide it and directly explained what just happened, "Taking without asking and claiming she did nothing wrong, such a person, no matter what others think, I won’t keep her, so I settled her wages and let her go."

Pei Yang frowned, "Was she trying to steal something? Why settle her wages then?"

"Isn’t it true that she didn’t succeed? Besides, she did work for three days."

Lv Qinqin had only taken the sketches but hadn’t had the chance to look closely before Jiang Ran came over, so no real harm was done.

Even if she did see them, it wouldn’t be justified to dock her wages.

Right is right. Jiang Ran wasn’t someone who indulges in excessive sympathy, but she also wouldn’t behave unreasonably.

Listening to Jiang Ran, Pei Yang looked at her with disapproval, "Sister-in-law, how come I never realized before how soft-hearted you could be."

Jiang Ran blinked innocently, "Am I soft-hearted?"

She didn’t think so!

If she were truly soft-hearted, she wouldn’t have dismissed Lv Qinqin so directly.
