Giana understood my reasoning, but she just couldn’t get over the fact that I was being slandered by Laci like this. “Although it’s true, I really can’t swallow my pride. Is there something seriously wrong with Laci? She’s like a mad dog, constantly biting at you online.”
I comforted her, “Giana, you blocked her account, so you won’t see her nonsense anymore and won’t get angry. Just consider her as a virtual wicked little stepsister, telling ghost stories online; it’s not a big deal.”
Giana took a deep breath and said, “Well, let’s just consider it as her telling ghost stories. If she is affecting your normal life and work, I will definitely not spare her.”
I packed my bag and gently tapped her shoulder. “Don’t worry, even though I was naturally quiet and non–confrontational, I was not someone to be easily bullied.”
Giana agreed with this point. Although I was kind, I was definitely not a pushover. While I wasn’t one to seek revenge, I also wouldn’t let anyone easily bully me.
“What is the good news?” My expectan
tant eyes were clear and eyes were clear and
transparent.
Giana couldn’t help but smile with joy as she thought of the good news. Her voice became more excited as she said, “The country has received the we submitted and attaches great importance to this new drug. They have
repor decided to send a professional team to join us in the research and development process, and the research funding will be fully covered by the government. The national media has also invited you for an interview.”
My heart pounded, my blood boiling; I was so excited that I tightly covered my mouth, my eyes moistened, unable to believe that this was true.
Giana’s eyes
turned red as she held my excited and dazed face.“Katrina, we lost a small sesame seed but gained a big watermelon. It’s the Barton Group’s loss for not cooperating with us. Now, the country is stepping in. As long as this new drug is successfully developed, we will be at the top of the world in a new field.”
I was so excited that I couldn’t say a word. Tears of joy slid down my eyes, but my smile was so radiant.
