Chapter 184: Receiving Gifts (Part 1)

As soon as Liu Meng knelt, Zhao Qingfeng immediately helped her up.

Marina was startled and rushed over to persuade her gently.

“Meng Meng, didn’t I just tell you? I have a friend who does loans. As long as your documents are complete, you can get the loan in a month.”

“We are a company, not a charity.”

“You just knelt down like that, aren’t you forcing Officer Zhao?”

“Who borrows money like this, making it awkward for others!”

As an administrator, Marina had the responsibility to maintain the order within the company.

After speaking,

She sneakily glanced at Zhao Qingfeng.

The other colleagues who hadn’t left were also comforting or persuading, silently observing Zhao Qingfeng’s reaction.

Liu Meng was the most nervous.

For a child from the countryside,

Finding such a high-paying and relaxed job that also provided various insurances right after graduation was particularly hard to come by.

She had been afraid to speak up,

Also because she was worried that Zhao Qingfeng would hold a grudge for it.

However,

What she didn’t expect was,

Not only would Zhao Qingfeng not fire her, but he was also going to help her significantly.

Problems that can be solved with money are never problems.

Moreover, helping her could also serve to win people’s hearts.

Most crucially,

Zhao Qingfeng had been a poor kid himself and knew the difficulties of not having money.

Looking back,

If his family had had enough money to support his father’s illness, he wouldn’t have died working on the assembly line.

“Marina, get the money.”

Only those who have experienced similar hardships can truly empathize.

“Ah?”

Marina was momentarily stunned, but seeing Zhao Qingfeng’s serious face, she quickly took out thirty thousand yuan.

“Thirty thousand is not enough, make it fifty thousand.”

Zhao Qingfeng additionally approved twenty thousand, to be used as subsequent nutritional expenses.

Not just that,

He also established a new rule.

From now on, any company employee or their immediate family members who fall ill, as long as they meet the assistance criteria, can apply for special aid, which the company will fully support!

The whole company cheered!

Applause thundered!

Liu Meng was so moved she didn’t know what to say, her tears of joy flowing like pearls off a string.

Half an hour later,

Zhao Qingfeng, accompanied by her, along with Cai Shuwen and Marina, bought lots of fruits and flower baskets to visit the hospital together.

As soon as they entered,

Liu Meng ran joyfully to her mother’s bedside, holding her wrinkled hands, excitedly saying, “Mom, the money issue has been solved, our boss lent it to me, your leg can be saved!”

Liu Meng’s mother cried tears of joy but also asked worriedly, “But… did you tell your boss that we can’t pay back the money anytime soon…”

Liu Meng glanced at Zhao Qingfeng and then told her mother, “Mom, the company has a special subsidy, I can pay it back with my salary every month!”

Liu Meng’s mother was overjoyed, half sitting up, grabbed Zhao Qingfeng’s hand, tears welling up again, “Officer Zhao… Meng Meng was worried about being fired if she spoke to you, I never thought… you, the boss, could be so kind…”

Simple people don’t speak ornate words.

A “you’re so kind” was enough to touch everyone present.

It was clear,

Liu Meng’s mother was filled with gratitude.

Had it not been for the leg injury, she might have knelt down like Liu Meng in her excitement to express her thanks.

As the conversation ended,

Liu Meng’s father came in with her younger brother, who was not yet seven years old.

The child didn’t understand the matter of money, but seeing his sister and mother smiling happily, his face, which had been gloomy for days, also lit up with a smile, “That’s great, mom and sister are finally smiling today! Mom’s leg can be saved, and she can carry me to catch frogs in the fields again!”

Liu Meng’s father, moved, grasped Zhao Qingfeng’s hand, his tears flowing freely.

He instructed Liu Meng, “Meng Meng, you must work hard in the future to repay Officer Zhao’s kindness to our family!”

Of course, that went without saying.

Liu Meng once again bowed deeply to Zhao Qingfeng.
