Qin Yucen had sent all the contract procedures to Lance, including the appointment fee paid to him. He accepted the rest, but returned the penalty fee intact to her. Even at this final moment of separation, he was forgiving and biased towards her.
She asked him why.
He said that she didn't owe the company anything, her accomplishments had already benefited the company, and because of her success, the market in China had been opened. Such profits were limitless.
He said they were friends, and in the end, they should leave behind some pleasant memories and not taint them with money.
He said, this was the only thing he could do for her, so let him have his way.
What else could Qin Yucen say? She just owed him a debt that she might never be able to repay in this lifetime.
