Chapter 441: Chapter 441
"Termination requires triple the wages."
"The HR department is too generous. Although termination includes triple wages, it makes the file look really bad."
"No one cares about the file, she is a wealthy heiress!" Zhou Jingjing raised her voice a bit, then walked away arm-in-arm with Li Qian.
Gu Wenjuan felt even worse and sat at her desk, burying her head and sobbing hard.
The colleagues she used to get along with just glanced at her and left when the workday ended.
Only Ding Liu and another male colleague came over.
Seeing her cry, Ding Liu also felt uncomfortable and said, "Wen Nuan, don’t cry, it’s really nothing. It’s just a job."
"Exactly, you’re not lacking that salary. If the company didn’t keep you, it’s their loss!"
"Stop crying," Ding Liu awkwardly tried to console her. "It’s really nothing."
Gu Wenjuan cried for a while, then stood up, quickly filled out the application form, and headed toward the HR department.
She hadn’t spoken a word to Ding Liu and the other guy the whole time.
The colleague beside Ding Liu felt a bit annoyed and said, "What the heck, it’s like we’re warmly approaching her cold attitude. Let’s go."
Ding Liu still watched her leaving.
The colleague said, "That’s it, you and this delicate girl aren’t the same kind. Don’t forget, your parents struggled to finance your master’s degree. This job opportunity means a lot to you."
Ding Liu felt very downhearted but left quickly as well.
When Gu Wenjuan returned, she saw that Ding Liu was gone. Her neck stiffened even more, and she silently packed her things with pursed lips.
Gu Wenjuan thought for a moment and left him a sticky note: Thank you for everything these past days. Keep in touch.
Ding Liu came back after dinner.
Seeing the sticky note, his heart suddenly sped up.
He looked around at others’ desks; no one else had such a note.
Could it mean... that Gu Wenjuan actually had feelings for him?
He, in fact, wasn’t harboring unrequited love!
Gu Wenjuan felt aggrieved and wanted to meet Young Master Yu, but at lunchtime, Special Assistant Yu and the Secretary-General had also gone out to eat, leaving only the coworker on duty at the entrance of Si Qiao’s office in case the president needed something or someone visited.
Gu Wenjuan reached the entrance of the president’s office. The coworker didn’t yet know that Gu Wenjuan had been terminated.
Seeing Gu Wenjuan trying to enter the president’s office, she hurriedly stopped her, saying, "What are you doing? The president is inside."
"I need to see the president," Gu Wenjuan’s eyes were still red from crying, "I have something very important to discuss with him face-to-face!"
Gu Wenjuan deliberately raised her voice, hoping that someone inside the president’s office could hear.
The female coworker noticed and said, "That’s useless. There are two doors in the middle of the president’s office, and the soundproofing is very good. He can’t hear you ."
Gu Wenjuan, feeling aggrieved, said, "I need to see the president!"
The female coworker frowned and replied, "The president is busy. He doesn’t even have time to eat, so how can you..."
"Just tell him," she interrupted, "say it’s about Princess Mo’s secret, that he has been deceived by Princess Mo all along!" Updates are released by novel(ꜰ)ire.net
Seeing her speak so earnestly, the female coworker was momentarily unsure whether to believe her but eventually said, "Then wait here, I’ll go report it."
Si Qiao was doing a video call with Mo Shu.
Mo Shu had placed the phone on the table and was eating heartily, not bothering to be discreet or caring about her image at all; she was visibly enjoying her meal.
