Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“In the manor, smoking is not allowed. I’ll transfer the money to you right away. Go outside to smoke!” Liu Lan disliked people like Zhou Nan and never treated him well.
Zhou Nan was completely fearless. He lit the cigarette, held it in his mouth, and provocatively raised his eyebrows at Liu Lan. “I want to smoke here. What can you do to me? Just a money-managing accountant. Do you really think you’re some big leader?”
Liu Lan’s face changed dramatically, but seeing his ruffian appearance, she felt a bit scared. She could only endure this anger and walked ahead.
As the two were about to reach the finance department, before Liu Lan entered the office, a woman’s scream suddenly came from behind.
She quickly turned around to look and saw Zhou Nan’s cigarette butt pressing directly on a lady’s arm.
He showed no remorse and instead adopted a hooligan attitude. “Oops, I wanted to flick the ash, didn’t expect to accidentally burn you. You’re in the wrong too. Remember to keep your distance from me next time!”
The woman, disgusted, gave him a disdainful look, lowered her head to examine her injured arm, and seemed ready to call the police.
It was peak season at the manor, and Liu Lan knew better than anyone how much profit the manor made daily. She wanted to get as much bonus as possible this month, so she didn’t want the police to appear at the manor, causing a bad influence.
Therefore, without much thought, she took the initiative to apologize for Zhou Nan.
“Miss, I’m really sorry. Let me take you to the office to handle the wound first. Please don’t lower yourself to his level. We can solve any issues privately. What do you think?”
The woman, holding a heavy oil drum, heard this and nodded, “Fine, take me to treat the wound first. We can discuss other matters later.”
“Thank you for your understanding.” Liu Lan was delighted that she successfully solved the matter and quickly signaled to Zhou Nan.
However, she didn’t have high hopes. After all, throughout the day at the villa, many people complained about Zhou Nan’s disobedience and how he was more of a hindrance than help.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Nan was unusually cooperative this time, very enthusiastic and even offered to help the injured guest carry the oil drum.
The woman was very wary of Zhou Nan at first, but the wound was too painful and the oil drum was a little heavy, so she handed it to Zhou Nan.
“Then help me hold it. You can return it to me later.”
“Okay. I’m really sorry for what happened just now. I didn’t know you were a guest at the villa. Please go with Director Liu to handle the wound. I’m sincerely sorry.” Zhou Nan, who was rarely so polite, bowed and apologized, saying many kind words.
Liu Lan gave him a surprised look. Although she found his sudden change in attitude strange, if it helped resolve the issue, she welcomed it.
The wound on the woman’s arm was painful initially, but it wasn’t too serious. It left only a shallow mark.
Liu Lan quickly cleaned the wound and applied some medicine on it before carefully bandaging it.
“Thank you for your help today. I have some other matters to attend to. As for compensation, please let your manager come to me later. I’m staying in Room 8305 upstairs, Bai Ling.” The woman had a gentle expression, not appearing to be someone who would take advantage.
Liu Lan nodded repeatedly and said, “Rest assured, our manor will take full responsibility for this matter. If you have other things to attend to, I won’t disturb you. I will definitely inform the manager to give you a satisfactory answer as soon as possible.”
“Very well.” Bai Ling, holding the wrapped arm, slowly opened the office door and left.
Outside the door, Zhou Nan was waiting. His eyes lit up when he saw her.
The gaze made Bai Ling feel uncomfortable for no apparent reason. Frowning, she took the oil drum from Zhou Nan’s hand without looking back and walked away.
Liu Lan followed from behind and, upon seeing Zhou Nan, the smile on her face disappeared completely. “You, come with me to see the manager. This matter is not over today!”

“I won’t see the manager. Deduct whatever amount you want from my mother’s account. Just give me my salary for today.” Zhou Nan resumed his unreasonable attitude.
Liu Lan was infuriated, “You offend a guest of the manor and still want your salary? Do you believe I’ll take you to the police station right now?”
“Who are you trying to scare? The manor is most afraid of negative news now. Don’t think I’m ignorant. Quickly give me the money. If you want to compensate that woman, just deduct it from my mother’s salary!”
“You’re really a filial son.” Liu Lan mocked him expressionlessly.
Zhou Nan didn’t care about her mockery at all. “Isn’t my mother going to give me all the money she earns in the end? Cut the crap.. If you don’t give me the money, believe it or not, I’ll teach you a lesson now!”
