Ning Xi was slightly stunned. She looked at Ye Wuyou's sincere eyes and felt mixed emotions.

She does face enormous financial pressure.

Su Qiyou's entanglement with the Su family made her exhausted, and every penny was crucial to her.

But her self-esteem played a role again, and she was unwilling to accept charity from others easily.

She lowered her head and said softly, "Dean, thank you for your kindness, but I can't take your money. I will work hard to earn money to solve the problem myself."

Ye Wuyou frowned, he walked closer to Ning Xi, lifted her chin and asked her to look directly into his eyes.

"Ning Xi, I know what you are worried about. But working so hard in this environment is not only dangerous, but it will also affect your health and reputation."

"I'm not giving you charity, but I treat you as a friend and want to help you through your difficulties."

Ning Xi's eyes were slightly red, and she bit her lip, "But I don't want to owe you too much. I've already caused you a lot of trouble..."

Ye Wuyou sighed softly, "You didn't cause me any trouble. Ever since we started working together, I've seen your hard work and talent."

"Now that you are in trouble, how can I just stand by and watch? Besides, this is only temporary help. When you are able to do so in the future, it won't be too late to pay me back."

Ning Xi hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke slowly:

"I owe the Su family some money, and they have been forcing me to pay it back as soon as possible so that I can completely get rid of their control. It will probably cost hundreds of thousands..."

Ye Wuyou nodded slightly.

"Although hundreds of thousands of dollars is not a small amount, it is not an unsolvable problem. I can help you pay off the money first so that you can work and live in peace."

Ning Xi's tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at Ye Wuyou gratefully, "Dean, I really don't know how to repay you..."

Ye Wuyou smiled slightly and gently wiped away her tears with his hand.

"I don't need you to repay me for anything. I just hope you can take good care of yourself and not make yourself so hard."

Just then, Ye Wuyou's cell phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at the phone screen and his expression changed slightly.

"I'll take a call."

He turned aside and answered the phone in a low voice.

Ning Xi stood there, feeling somewhat uneasy, wondering what had happened to make Ye Wuyou's face become so serious.

After Ye Wuyou hung up the phone, he turned to Ning Xi and said, "There is an emergency at the hospital. I need to go back and deal with it."

"Wait for me here after get off work. I'll come back and pick you up after I finish my work."

Ning Xi nodded quickly, "Okay, Dean, you can get busy now."

Ye Wuyou hurriedly left the private room, and Ning Xi looked at his departing back.

Not long after Ye Wuyou left, Ning Xi's phone suddenly vibrated. She took out her phone and saw a bank transfer information.

It was a huge sum of money enough to repay the Su family's debt, and the person who transferred the money was Ye Wuyou.

Looking at the series of numbers on the screen, Ning Xi's hands began to tremble slightly.

She knew what the money meant.

Ning Xi slowly put away her phone, took a deep breath, as if she had made an important decision. She stood up, straightened her clothes, and walked straight to the manager's office.

Ning Xi arrived at the door of the manager's office and was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, but found that the door was not closed tightly, leaving a narrow gap.

Through the gap, she saw the scene inside the house and couldn't help but stand there in a daze.

I saw a girl dressed very gorgeously sitting on the manager's lap. The two of them were hugging each other tightly and kissing passionately. The scene was really full of love.

Ning Xi stood at the door awkwardly, not knowing whether to go in or back out.

She coughed lightly, trying to alert the two people in the room.

Hearing the voice, the manager slightly pushed the girl away and turned to look at the door. There was no embarrassment on his face, but a hint of displeasure. "Ning Xi, why didn't you knock when you came in?"

Ning Xi said with a stiff face: "Manager, the door is not closed tightly, I didn't mean to disturb you. I came to tell you about my resignation."

The manager straightened his clothes, asked the girl to sit aside, and then raised his eyes, "Resign? Why do you suddenly want to resign?"

Ning Xi bit her lip and said, "I have some personal reasons. I really can't continue to work here."

The manager leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms over his chest, and looked at her with a half-smile.

"Ning Xi, you also know the rules of our industry. It is clearly written in black and white in your contract that you will have to pay compensation if you leave before the stipulated time. But..."

He paused deliberately, his eyes wandering freely over Ning Xi's body.

"You have an iconic appearance. If you can finish your last night shift today and hand over all your work, I will agree to let you resign. How about that?"

Ning Xi's heart tightened.

She knew that the manager had bad intentions, but she was worried that if she didn't agree, the manager would deliberately make things difficult for her and prevent her from leaving smoothly.

But Ning Xi still tried to negotiate.

"Manager, I really have to leave. Can you please make an exception? I don't need this month's salary."

The manager laughed.

"It's not that I'm not flexible, this is the company's policy. Do you think this contract is that simple? There are many hidden clauses in it. If you breach the contract, the amount of compensation will be more than you can afford."

Ning Xi's eyes widened. "Hidden clauses? Why didn't I know about them when I signed the contract?"

The manager shrugged. "Who can you blame for not looking carefully at the time? Now you have no choice but to do as I say and finish this last night shift, or you will be sued."

Ning Xi was filled with helplessness and anger, but she had no idea what to do. She hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Okay, I'll do it."

The manager smiled with satisfaction. "That's right. Go ahead, work hard, and don't make any mistakes."

Ning Xi turned and left the manager's office, walking towards the work area with a heavy heart.

The manager looked at her leaving back, a barely perceptible sinister gleam in his eyes, and then he winked at the girl.

The girl understood what he meant and immediately stood up and chased after him, twisting her waist.

Ning Xi had just walked to the corner where her belongings were stored, preparing to pack up and push the cart out to continue selling wine, when the girl quickly walked up to her and blocked her way with her hand.

Ning Xi frowned and looked at the girl warily, "What are you going to do?"

The girl's lips, painted with bright lipstick, were slightly raised with a hint of sarcasm in her smile.

"Little girl, don't think you can get away so easily."

Ning Xi's heart trembled, "What do you mean? I have already promised the manager to finish tonight's shift."

The girl snorted softly, "Do you think this is the end? The manager's words are not that simple."

Ning Xi asked in confusion: "What do you want to say? If you don't say it, then I will..."
