Disappointed by Rebecca’s underwhelming reaction, Andrea went to Jeffrey’s office and shared her observations. “Jeffrey, have you noticed how much Rebecca has changed recently?”

“What about her?” Jeffrey asked casually.

Andrea relayed the day’s events, carefully omitting details unfavorable to herself while emphasizing Rebecca’s behavior. “She’s become much more composed now, no longer going her own way like she used to.”

Andrea had first been drawn to Rebecca in their university dormitory through her bold refusal skills.

When everyone discussed weekend bonding activities, two roommates reluctantly agreed, while Rebecca directly declined with the excuse of prior commitments.

Countless subsequent group activities saw Rebecca’s continued absence.

Andrea thought Rebecca’s behavior would make her isolated, but each time after rejecting others, Rebecca maintained connections by gifting luxury skincare sets, complete makeup collections, or other coveted items.

Therefore, everyone treated Rebecca exceptionally well, not minding that she didn’t join dorm activities.

About a year later, the dorm held an internal meeting. By then, the bonds between everyone had grown quite strong. The room rep had them take turns sharing opinions on each other’s strengths and weaknesses, aiming to foster more harmonious coexistence during the remaining three years.

The room rep was the first to speak, mentioning some minor flaws in each person. The others, not wanting to offend anyone, focused on trivial matters that wouldn’t cause harm.

Only Rebecca thoroughly and sincerely highlighted both the shortcomings and strengths of each person.

At that time, Andrea thought Rebecca was truly foolish, and that speaking so bluntly was bound to offend people. But Andrea was wrong. Instead of getting angry about Rebecca’s candid remarks, everyone else actually launched into a discussion.

Andrea couldn’t understand why, thinking it was either because Rebecca had given them many benefits, or because they didn’t dare to offend her.

In fact, no one got angry during that conversation because Rebecca first confessed her own flaws while only lightly addressing others‘. She followed a critique with an even greater compliment.
