She doesn't want to pretend anymore

Mother Li sincerely apologized to Manshu. If Manshu continued to hold on, it would seem that she was being unyielding.

"You're too polite. Li Jiayin did something wrong and even asked you to apologize as well. She is really too ignorant."

Manshu saw the smile on Li's mother's face gradually disappear.

But she still smiled and said, "Don't be too angry. If something bad happens, people will say that Li Jiayin is unfilial."

Pfft haha...

Several of the students who were sitting in their seats and listening to the noise couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Mother Li was so angry that her face darkened. It was obvious that she didn't expect this girl to be so difficult to deal with.

He looked sincere, as if he was really thinking about her.

This is even more disturbing.

"As long as classmate Manshu forgives our stupid girl, I won't be angry." Mother Li almost squeezed out these words from between her teeth.

Manshu looked embarrassed: "You are asking too much. Although I know that Li Jiayin didn't mean it, I really put a lot of effort into the design. Now that she has torn it up, I won't be able to submit it on time."

"Then..." Mother Li wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Manshu again.

"Student Li Jiayin has agreed to double compensation. You wouldn't disagree, would you?" Her eyes widened as she said this.

A pair of dark eyes looked up and down at Mother Li.

It's as if saying: You look so well-dressed, but you go back on your word and are reluctant to spend that little money?

"I'm not..." Does the Li family care about money?

She was talking about Yan Zhan!

Is this girl pretending to be ignorant even though she knows the truth, or is she really only thinking about asking for money?

If she just wanted money, it would be easier to deal with her.

However, Mother Li could not hide the contempt in her eyes.

Is a little girl who is obsessed with money worthy of being protected by the head of the Yan family?

"I'm relieved if it's not you." Manshu nodded quickly. "Then are you going to pay in cash or by bank transfer?"

"How much is your design worth?" Mother Li was already unhappy, and her words became a little harsher. "You have to show me the draft, and I'll take it back and have someone appraise its value, so I can know how much compensation I should pay for the loss, right?"

“Student Manshu, you are still young and don’t know the jewelry design industry. Some people’s creations are immeasurable, but some people’s drawings are worthless.”

Mother Li was almost saying that Manshu's design draft was worthless.

"How about this, I'll give you two thousand?"

These two thousand were given out of respect for Mr. Yan Sanye.

To her, it was small change.

But for a rural girl, it should be a sky-high price.

Mother Li's tone of almsgiving makes people feel uncomfortable.

Manshu was not angry either: "I can show you the manuscript, but I have asked Mr. Yan to help with the estimate. His people will contact you later."

She pulled out the photos from her phone and showed them to Mother Li.

The one given is the one taken by Li Jiayin after the photos were pieced together.

At first glance at the design draft that was torn into pieces and pasted together, Mother Li thought Manshu was making a fuss out of nothing.

However, after seeing the design of the jade pendant, she was slightly stunned.

Li Jiayin is young and doesn't know anything about jewelry, but her mother is a wealthy woman after all and often buys her jewelry.

Even though this design is just a rough draft, you can tell that a lot of thought went into it.

Perhaps the brushwork is still a little immature, but as an outsider, Mother Li can't tell that. She only knows that the jade pendant is quite attractive.

She glanced at Manshu and realized that she had underestimated this little girl.
