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 CEO’s office. But right now, I can’t care about that.
1 silently stood outside the door, only wanting to eavesdrop on what tricks Ye
Mengyan wanted to play.
“Big brother Gu, I know you don’t want to be bothered by these trivial matters…but I have to say it, because I may not have time to accompany you in the future!”
“What’s the matter?”
“My family has arranged a marriage for me! My mother said, I’m not young anymore, and her health is not good, she’s worried that she could pass away at any time. She’s worried that after she passes away, no one will take care of me. So, she’s forcing me to marry.”
Ye Mengyan’s words seemed a bit like a coercion.
No wonder Ye Mengyan did not refuse the Shen family’s marriage proposal that day.
So that’s 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 Yuanzhou’s reaction.
But Annie came over from the opposite side.
“Hey, Miss Song, what are you doing here so sneakily?”
Annie must have realised that I was eavesdropping, and purposely came over from a distance to expose me.
She probably didn’t realize how stupid her action was!
Sure enough, soon enough, chastising voices came from the office.
“Who’s outside?”
“It’s me, President Gut..
Annie proudly walked in.
However, when she saw another woman in the CEO’s office, she couldn’t maintain her smile.
CEO + young woman = doing something unsightly. If she exposes it, the boss would definitely be furious.
She quickly collected her thoughts,
“President Gu, I was just coming to report my work, and I saw Miss Song eavesdropping outside the door, so 1 stopped her.”
Gu Yuanzhou’s gaze turned to me…
1 immediately took out my earphones and gestured with my hands.
“Things aren’t as Annie said they were. I saw that there was a guest in the CEO’s office. Fearing disturbing your pleasure, I didn’t enter. I wasn’t eavesdropping at all, 1 was just listening to music. Look, the earphones are right here.”
“Also, 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.”
I confidently said the truth.
Annie’s face visibly fell.
She is shocked, disbelieving…
Gu Yuanzhou’s gaze was a bit cold as he turned to look at Annie again.
“Our company values team spirit, why are you always maligning your colleagues?”
Annie panicked immediately.
“I’m sorry, President Gu, I didn’t mean to malign her. I just saw her and thought… I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it’s my mistake, I’d like to apologize to her. It was my negligence, my misunderstanding, it won’t happen again.”
Only then did Gu Yuanzhou look at me,
“Would you still be willing to work with her in the future?”
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,
“President Gu, what do you mean by 1 am willing to work with her?”
Although I had already caught on, I still hoped to hear it from Gu Yuanzhou’s own mouth.
No other reason, just that it would make me feel good.
“Our company values team spirit the most. Employees that are always at odds with their colleagues, we would definitely fire. Negatively influencing the team, we can’t keep. If you don’t want to forgive her, she will have to go.” 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 City’s big fashion companies. The company offers great benefits and provides many opportunities for further training.
She couldn’t find another company as good as this one.
Moreover, she’s been working here for a long time, and she doesn’t want to leave.
Now that I had the final say in what happens,
I looked at her with a smile.
“If Miss Annie sincerely apologizes to me, I can forgive her once! But of course, only this once!”
“Miss Song, I apologize to you, I misunderstood, I’m sorry!’
Although Annie was reluctant, in order to keep her job, she had to swallow her pride and come to me.
“Sorry, but such an apology is meaningless. Here’s 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.’
Having to read it in front of all the company’s staff, Annie immediately refused on the spot after hearing it.
Perhaps, such a scene would be very embarrassing for her.
Up till now, she’s still unwilling to admit that I am better than her. She pointed her finger at me angrily.
“Song Xiaoyun, you’ve gone too far! I’ve been at this company for over four years, while you’re just a newbie who joined at the beginning of this year. When 1 teach you a lesson, it’s for your benefit, to broad your horizons, to help you progress. Yet, you’re so scheming to make me publicly humiliated?”
I spread my hands, “Don’t play the senior card, although you are indeed older, I don’t think there’s anything about you that I can learn from. Yes, I’ve been at the company for less time than you, but the projects I’ve finished are more than what you’ve done in over four years. I think the one who needs to learn here is you.”
“You, you’re talking nonsense!”
“Alright, 1 don’t want to argue with you. If you don’t want to apologize, then resign! I’ve always disliked forcing anyone.”
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 doesn’t realize that the person she has been targeting is actually the boss’s wife!
Even if she gets fired by me, she deserves it.
“Fine! ”
She finally compromised.
I looked at her with a smile, “Write a good self-examination! I’m looking forward to it!”
With clenched teeth, she finally left in anger.
After she left, the office finally quieted down.
Gu Yuanzhou looked at me,
“How did you manage to secure Mina?”
I turned to look at Ye Mengyan,
“President Gu, why don’t you two continue talking and I’ll come back later!”
Gu Yuanzhou looked at Ye Mengyan,
“No, she’s about to leave!”
Ye Mengyan took the hint, got up to leave,
“You two talk. I’m leaving first!” Gu Yuanzhou sat on his leather boss chair, deeply looked at me,
“Come closer, let me look at you!’
