Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Has He Seen Through Me?_1
Translator: 549690339
1 remember that Gu Yuanzhou explicitly banned Ye Mengyan from visiting the company before.
Unexpectedly, she has rushed here this time. Has some urgent matter occurred?
Normally, my duty is to stop irrelevant people from entering the CEOās office. But right now, I canāt care about that.
1 silently stood outside the door, only wanting to eavesdrop on what tricks Ye
Mengyan wanted to play.
āBig brother Gu, I know you donāt want to be bothered by these trivial mattersā¦but I have to say it, because I may not have time to accompany you in the future!ā
āWhatās the matter?ā
āMy family has arranged a marriage for me! My mother said, Iām not young anymore, and her health is not good, sheās worried that she could pass away at any time. Sheās worried that after she passes away, no one will take care of me. So, sheās forcing me to marry.ā
Ye Mengyanās words seemed a bit like a coercion.
No wonder Ye Mengyan did not refuse the Shen familyās marriage proposal that day.
So thatās her purpose.
She is trying to use this matter to force Gu Yuanzhou to recognize her officially, to give her the title of Mrs. Gu.
It was at that moment that I finally realized, Ye Mengyan was far from being as simple as I had imagined.
1 originally wanted to continue listening, to see Gu Yuanzhouās reaction.
But Annie came over from the opposite side. fšæeš²šš²bnšØššl.com
āHey, Miss Song, what are you doing here so sneakily?ā
Annie must have realised that I was eavesdropping, and purposely came over from a distance to expose me.
She probably didnāt realize how stupid her action was!
Sure enough, soon enough, chastising voices came from the office.
āWhoās outside?ā
āItās me, President Gut..
Annie proudly walked in.
However, when she saw another woman in the CEOās office, she couldnāt maintain her smile.
CEO + young woman = doing something unsightly. If she exposes it, the boss would definitely be furious.
She quickly collected her thoughts,
āPresident Gu, I was just coming to report my work, and I saw Miss Song eavesdropping outside the door, so 1 stopped her.ā
Gu Yuanzhouās gaze turned to meā¦
1 immediately took out my earphones and gestured with my hands.
āThings arenāt as Annie said they were. I saw that there was a guest in the CEOās office. Fearing disturbing your pleasure, I didnāt enter. I wasnāt eavesdropping at all, 1 was just listening to music. Look, the earphones are right here.ā
āAlso, I really wanted to report to the president that the project I was working on has been completed. Mina has already signed a contract with me.ā
I confidently said the truth.
Annieās face visibly fell.
She is shocked, disbelievingā¦
Gu Yuanzhouās gaze was a bit cold as he turned to look at Annie again.
āOur company values team spirit, why are you always maligning your colleagues?ā
Annie panicked immediately.
āIām sorry, President Gu, I didnāt mean to malign her. I just saw her and thoughtā¦ Iām sorry, Iām sorry, itās my mistake, Iād like to apologize to her. It was my negligence, my misunderstanding, it wonāt happen again.ā
Only then did Gu Yuanzhou look at me,
āWould you still be willing to work with her in the future?ā
The implication of his words was that he was giving me the right to decide.
Letting me decide how to deal with Annie.
I deliberately asked,
āPresident Gu, what do you mean by 1 am willing to work with her?ā
Although I had already caught on, I still hoped to hear it from Gu Yuanzhouās own mouth.
No other reason, just that it would make me feel good.
āOur company values team spirit the most. Employees that are always at odds with their colleagues, we would definitely fire. Negatively influencing the team, we canāt keep. If you donāt want to forgive her, she will have to go.ā Gu Yuanzhou stated very clearly.
I looked at Annie again, indeed, her face had turned pale, her expression somewhat fearful.
The look she gave me was no longer one of jealousy, instead, it was filled with dread, and even a bit of flattery.
I understood. At this moment, Zhenyi Company is considered a top firm among A Cityās big fashion companies. The company offers great benefits and provides many opportunities for further training.
She couldnāt find another company as good as this one.
Moreover, sheās been working here for a long time, and she doesnāt want to leave.
Now that I had the final say in what happens,
I looked at her with a smile.
āIf Miss Annie sincerely apologizes to me, I can forgive her once! But of course, only this once!ā
āMiss Song, I apologize to you, I misunderstood, Iām sorry!ā
Although Annie was reluctant, in order to keep her job, she had to swallow her pride and come to me.
āSorry, but such an apology is meaningless. Hereās what, we have a company-wide meeting tomorrow, write a 2,000-word apology letter, and read it in front of everyone at the meeting. Then I will give you another chance.ā
Having to read it in front of all the companyās staff, Annie immediately refused on the spot after hearing it.
Perhaps, such a scene would be very embarrassing for her.
Up till now, sheās still unwilling to admit that I am better than her. She pointed her finger at me angrily.
āSong Xiaoyun, youāve gone too far! Iāve been at this company for over four years, while youāre just a newbie who joined at the beginning of this year. When 1 teach you a lesson, itās for your benefit, to broad your horizons, to help you progress. Yet, youāre so scheming to make me publicly humiliated?ā
I spread my hands, āDonāt play the senior card, although you are indeed older, I donāt think thereās anything about you that I can learn from. Yes, Iāve been at the company for less time than you, but the projects Iāve finished are more than what youāve done in over four years. I think the one who needs to learn here is you.ā
āYou, youāre talking nonsense!ā
āAlright, 1 donāt want to argue with you. If you donāt want to apologize, then resign! Iāve always disliked forcing anyone.ā
Hearing this, Annie calmed down. She had no other options left.
She seemed to have ignored the fact that control of her career had been held in my hands. She had no initiative left.
This woman is really stupid. She doesnāt realize that the person she has been targeting is actually the bossās wife!
Even if she gets fired by me, she deserves it.
āFine! ā
She finally compromised.
I looked at her with a smile, āWrite a good self-examination! Iām looking forward to it!ā
With clenched teeth, she finally left in anger.
After she left, the office finally quieted down.
Gu Yuanzhou looked at me,
āHow did you manage to secure Mina?ā
I turned to look at Ye Mengyan,
āPresident Gu, why donāt you two continue talking and Iāll come back later!ā
Gu Yuanzhou looked at Ye Mengyan,
āNo, sheās about to leave!ā
Ye Mengyan took the hint, got up to leave,
āYou two talk. Iām leaving first!ā Gu Yuanzhou sat on his leather boss chair, deeply looked at me,
āCome closer, let me look at you!ā
