CHAPTER 109: WOMEN SHOULDN’T BE KEPT AS SONGBIRDS

Gu Tiantian was just about to tell Cheng Junnan about her situation, like how she can’t go to work these days.

Her tailbone is still injured, it’s impossible for her to be little miss errand, buying this and delivering that all the time.

Before she could open her mouth, Cheng Junnan had already hung up the phone.

Gu Tiantian glanced at her phone, pondered for a moment, found Zhang Haiyang’s number, and dialed it.

As soon as the call connected, Zhang Haiyang’s loud and scolding voice erupted.

"Gu Tiantian, you little rascal, you still remember to call Brother Zhang!"

"Wouldn’t you still be in bed right now?"

"Oh dear, you young folks need to set some limits when you’re doing things!"

"Doing too much while young, your body will suffer a great loss!"

Blah blah blah...

Gu Tiantian: ...

She held the phone an arm’s length from her ear, her face flushed, breathing heavily.

Seriously...

Talk about hitting the sore spot!

Her brain was a bit aching, she reached out and rubbed it.

Once Zhang Haiyang had tired himself out from lecturing, only then did she bring the phone closer.

"Brother Zhang, I’m really sorry for worrying you."

"Worry? What am I worried about?"

"Brother Zhang, I know I was wrong!"

"Hah! Do you even know how you’re wrong?"

"Brother Zhang, come on, let’s talk properly, okay?"

"Alright, Gu Tiantian, tell me, are you planning not to come to work anymore? Even if you’re resigning, you should still write a resignation letter!"

Before Gu Tiantian could speak, Zhang Haiyang’s voice came from the phone.

"But, Tian Tian, speaking as a man, Brother Zhang advises you, women shouldn’t be kept like a canary, otherwise, even if a man finds it exciting at first, he’ll get tired of it with time!"

Gu Tiantian: ...

She never thought being a canary would be a good thing?

Moreover, with so much debt, she never considered not working one day.

"Brother Zhang, I got it, no worries, I’m just calling to let you know I’m okay, no big deal, I’ll hang up now."

Oh, speaking of it, she’s really not a competent little helper.

After another round of nagging from Zhang Haiyang, Gu Tiantian jokingly remarked.

"Brother Zhang, why do I feel like you can nag more than my grandma now!"

"Whoa! Gu Tiantian, how can you compare your blossoming Brother Zhang to your old granny? We’re a whole thirty-five years apart, alright!"

"Alright, I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m busy!"

"Oh dear, I must have saved the galaxy in my past life to owe it to you in this one! I’ll go get your leave approved now!"

"Great, thanks, Brother Zhang. I’ll treat you to dinner next time!"

"Of course!"

After hanging up, Gu Tiantian’s mood improved again.

Reflecting on her mood changes, Gu Tiantian felt like her emotions shifted even quicker than the weather.

Somewhat at a loss, Gu Tiantian looked at her phone, considering calling her grandma to say she’d be home soon.

After touching her tailbone, Gu Tiantian decided against it.

If she went home now, her grandma would definitely know she was injured.

Then it’d be all kinds of worry, calling her "my poor sweet granddaughter" until it made her feel tearful.

Thinking about going downstairs for a stroll, weighing her current condition, Gu Tiantian decided against it again.

Forget it!

She should just honestly be a proper injured person!

She lay down on the bed, casually grabbed a book from the bedside table.

After picking it up, she flipped a few pages, and her eyelids began to feel heavy.

Principles of Economics!

She’d never ventured into this field, and was naturally struggling to understand.

After reading a bit, she simply tossed it aside.

And, with her heavy eyelids, she snuggled down on the bed and fell asleep.
