Tang En'en, upon hearing she could leave, sprang to her feet in astonishment and asked, "Really?"
"Of course, let's go. It's all settled," the chief said, his tone now much more polite as he understood these two girls were not to be trifled with.
Tang En'en had been worrying about not getting home yet, thinking that her parents must be anxious. Seizing Jiayi's hand, she hurried towards the exit.
After a few steps, Jiayi remembered something and turned back, "Chief, about the compensation..."
The chief waved his hand dismissively, "Don't worry, the other party isn't pursuing it anymore; they just said it was all a misunderstanding, and there is no need for compensation."
This was like a huge pie falling from heaven, completely bewildering them both.
Wasn't the other party still acting all high and mighty before, clamoring for fifty thousand in medical expenses, plus compensation for mental anguish and lost wages, threatening to sue them otherwise?
