Chapter 440
"It's your own fault for being so inconsiderate."
"If you want a job, you should apply to Sisi yourself, instead of forcing her to do something against her will."
"I've already told you they're just Sisi's friends, but you're still not letting it go. What more do you want?"
"And don't you know why you didn't get the job back then?"
"Why is your business so bad now? Isn't this all your own doing?"
"Why are you morally blackmailing that girl?" Qingqing was probably also furious at Bai Ling's repeated behavior.
I just couldn't hold it in any longer.
Moreover, the white silk ribbon was incredibly entangled.
The reason I brought Shili to get her nails done this time is because the two of them had been friends before.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have brought Shi Li along to help with Bai Ling's business.
There are clearly other females here waiting for business.
"Where am I morally blackmailing you? I'm just advocating for myself. What do you know?"
"And if it weren't for you, would I have lost the election back then?"
"You've taken all the advantages yourself, and you're still criticizing me?" Hearing Bai Ling say this, Shi Li felt there was no need to say anything more; she had just wanted to offer some advice.
It's clear that these two have their own grudges to resolve.
Who gets all the benefits?
"You made sure everyone else got sick and couldn't report on the show so you could get selected. Now that it's been found out, do you think you'll ever work in a place like this again?" Qingqing took a deep breath, as if she had made a huge decision.
What she said did indeed surprise Shi Li, and the other females around her also heard it, and their gazes toward Bai Ling instantly changed.
Everyone became alert.
Shi Li was not very familiar with the situation on Hailan Star. Was finding a job here so competitive now?
Has the involution reached the point where medication is needed?
This is truly unheard of.
"I didn't do that!! Don't slander me in front of so many people!" Bai Ling angrily pointed at Qingqing.
But Qingqing wasn't afraid at all.
People at the time all knew about this.
She wasn't lying.
Right now, Bai Ling is just stubbornly denying it.
"Of course there was. The evidence was conclusive at the time."
“Sisi said back then that you shouldn’t even think about getting a job in the palace, not just in her family.”
"Although your skills are really good, with such character, which company would dare to hire you?" Whispers immediately broke out around them.
Shi Li couldn't help but tug at Qingqing's sleeve.
"That's good enough, anyway we might not see each other again."
"Why don't we leave?" Shi Li wasn't that she couldn't bear to leave, but this was, after all, Bai Ling's workplace.
After Qingqing said that today, it probably won't be long before Bai Ling can't even stay here anymore.
Judging from what others here say, working here seems like a pretty good place.
"Okay, if you don't want to pursue this, I'll take you somewhere else. I need to handle this matter here." Qingqing's first words were spoken on behalf of Shili, but the rest of her words were entirely her own.
I've always been frustrated by their lack of progress.
She was very anxious to see her former friend gradually deteriorating.
But this is her private matter, and she definitely can't take up Shi Li's time. The most important thing right now is not to let this matter affect Shi Li's mood for coming to play.
"Okay, wherever you think is suitable." Shi Li didn't care either way. She was already exhausted and didn't have the extra time or energy to care about other people's business.
It's enough for her to hold onto the people around her now.
"Okay, come with me. I know a place where you can rest." Just as Qingqing was about to lead Shili away, Bai Ling grabbed her hand.
"Don't believe what she says. She's used more tricks than I have to get into people's homes to be housekeepers."
"There was a huge misunderstanding back then, please let Sisi give me another chance." Bai Ling grabbed Shi Li's hand again, and this time not only Qingqing, but Shi Li's face also darkened.
What's going on here?
This is the first time I've ever met someone so persistent.
It's simply indescribable.
"I don't understand anymore. Aren't you doing just fine here?"
"On my way here, I saw that this place was the only one with a constant stream of people."
"Even when everyone else has started to lie down, you're still here in business mode."
"Why do we have to pick a fight with Sisi's family?" Shi Li really didn't understand. Was life already that difficult?
If there's truly nowhere else to go besides someone like Lian Sisi, then this isn't just a personal issue.
This indicates that there is a major problem with the entire Hailan Star system.
Under normal circumstances, how could we let other people live such a difficult life?
"You've forgotten you're from another planet."
"You have no idea what's going on here." Bai Ling had a lot of grievances to say about this.
Now that she seems to realize that Shi Li is willing to listen, she is incredibly excited.
He immediately grabbed Shi Li, wanting to have a serious talk, regardless of Qingqing's expression beside him.
Anyway, since Qingqing exposed her past, the two of them have now completely fallen out.
Qingqing tried to stop her, but Shili stopped her.
Shi Li thought that since she was already here, if there really was any major hidden danger on Hailan Star, she should try to find out and figure it out before Lian Sisi started giving birth.
"Apart from the homes of royalty and nobility, any other job is just a regular job."
"Forget about salary. For example, the only promises they make when you work here are to provide a place to live and meals."
There was no extra salary at all.
"Who knows, one day they might see that our business isn't doing well and start some other business."
“By then, many things will be beyond our control.” Bai Ling gestured towards the dance floor.
Shi Li followed the gaze.
Several female dancers in the center of the dance floor were already passionately dancing with other males.
However, the alternating lights did not reveal the joys or sorrows of these dancers.
Regardless of Bai Ling's intentions, these individuals were most likely not acting voluntarily.
There was no other way; either they had signed a contract of servitude, or they were trying to pay off debts.
"Many families in Hailanxing couldn't make a living, so they sold their daughters here."
“They are in a worse situation. At least for us, if we really can’t continue working, then…”
"You can choose not to take any wages, as long as you have personal freedom, and still leave here safely. But those who sell themselves have absolutely nothing to do with freedom."
