She hated people who didn’t have any abilities and liked to join in the fun.
However, Gu Wan’an ignored them.
In front of everyone, she stepped up the steps and stood side by side with the man on the edge of the rooftop.
“What are you doing? Get down! Don’t come over, don’t force me!” The middle-aged man shouted.
The others were also stunned. Why did another one go up?
Gu Wan’an said lightly, “Don’t you want to talk to someone else? I’m talking to you and standing in the same position. This is my sincerity and respect.”
Hearing this, Qin Dan was slightly shocked.
The middle-aged man’s emotions also eased up. “I’ve been working diligently in the company for more than 20 years. But now, you want to lay off employees just like that? You’re clearly forcing me to death!”
The man clenched his fists and roared with bloodshot eyes.
“If the boss changes, he’ll say that we old employees are old and useless, keeping us is only a waste of money!”
Gu Wan’an was very calm, even though she didn’t understand the company’s situation.
“Reporters, please stop filming, okay? If you insist on filming, please help him add a mosaic. I don’t want you to affect his family and future life because of a piece of trending news.”
Who knew that when he heard this, the man’s emotions became agitated again.
“Life in the future? How can there be a future!”
“My parents are already in their eighties and can’t take care of themselves. My wife has leukemia and has already spent all her savings!”
“I also have a twelve-year-old daughter who is still in school. The entire family lives on my salary.”
“If I’m fired, where do I have the courage to face my family? I might as well die!”
He shouted at the top of his lungs and pounded his chest.
“You can earn more money, but you only have one life. As long as you don’t die, you will eventually make a name for yourself.” Gu Wan’an looked at the heavy rain and said in a deep voice, “To live, it’s very tiring, right?”
This sentence pierced the middle-aged man’s heart.
He couldn’t control his emotions and cried loudly. His tears mixed with the rain.
“It’s right to feel that it’s hard. Comfort is only reserved for the dead.”
Seeing that his emotions had gradually calmed down, Gu Wan’an continued, “As a man, you are very responsible. I admire you.”
Then, she turned her words around and said coldly, “However, If were your wife or daughter, I would definitely hate and loathe you for the rest of my life!”
The middle-aged man was so stunned that he forgot to cry.
“If you jump, you will be free and you can get the compensation. But, have you ever thought about your wife and daughter?”
Gu Wan’an turned around and stared at him, her tone aggressive.
“Do you think your elderly parents can bear such bad news?”
“A seriously ill wife who has to take care of your parents and fight against sickness. What are the chances of her surviving?”
“As for your daughter!”
“With the compensation that her father exchanged with his life, could she do it? There’s a worst-case scenario. Do you want to hear it?”
The middle-aged man’s chest heaved up and down as he stared at her.
“Your wife can’t take care of herself, and your daughter has no choice but to drop out of school. She has to accompany her mother to see a doctor while taking care of her elderly grandparents.”
“Also, are you sure that the money you exchanged with your life will fall into the hands of your family and not be snatched away by some relatives with ulterior motives?”
“Some people are black-hearted.”
Gu Wan’an let out a long sigh, her eyes revealing too many things.
After adjusting her emotions, she raised her eyebrows and asked, “You’re not even afraid of death, why are you afraid of being poor?”
