Finding a Way
Xiao Guo faces a mistake at work and quickly tries to fix it by sending a new email and explaining to his boss.
小郭深呼吸，告诉自己要冷静。Xiao Guo takes a deep breath and tells himself to stay calm.
他马上打开邮箱，找到那封邮件。He quickly opens his email and finds the message.“也许客户还没看。”“Maybe the client hasn’t seen it yet,” he thinks.于是他立刻写了第二封邮件。So he immediately writes a second email.
他说：“对不起，刚才的文件发错了，请看这个新的。”He writes, “Sorry, I sent the wrong file earlier. Please see this new one.”
发完后，他去跟老板说明情况。After sending it, he goes to explain everything to his boss.老板听了，点点头，说：“下次小心。”The boss listens, nods, and says, “Be careful next time.”
小郭松了一口气，但心里还觉得不安。Xiao Guo sighs in relief, but still feels uneasy inside.
