C25 It Was a Sudden Change for Me (1/2)
”Xia Jinsheng, where did you go? ”You …” Gu Nanchen's angry voice came out from the phone, resonating with the listeners.
”Forty minutes late, right?” Xia Jinsheng picked her ears, and naturally took over Gu Nanchen's words. In any case, he was not in front of her, so she couldn't help but feel more at ease.
”Do you know where I am going?” Gu Nanchen's tone was not too good, and one could feel his anger from his tone.
second uncle had clearly seen Lu Jun's arrival this morning. Wasn't this clearly asking the obvious?
”Where else can I go? Isn't it just having breakfast with Lu Jun? ” Xia Jinsheng lazily leaned on her seat. She could roughly guess what Gu Nanchen meant, seeing that she had been gone for so long, she must have misunderstood something.
It takes so long to eat? Xia Jinsheng had already made up her mind to keep it a secret from him. With a thump in her heart, she enunciated word by word: ”Once you're at the company, immediately come here.”
”Oh.” Xia Jinsheng replied listlessly. Her extremely dull response made Gu Nanchen even more unhappy, but in order to not show how much importance he placed on her, he angrily hung up the phone.
Xia Jinsheng looked at the phone that had a black screen on it, the bangs on her forehead covered her expression, she was feeling complex emotions, as though there would be a battle to fight later.
Standing under the door of the company that the Gu Family belonged to was clearly a familiar place, yet Xia Jinsheng had the urge to escape.
Her phone rang again, Gu Nanchen's cold voice came out, just one word, it was simple.
”Come up.”
She raised her head and looked at the place where she had been standing dozens of stories high. There was a faint shadow there, and it didn't take her long to retract her gaze. The dazzling sunlight made her unable to open her eyes.
For her own safety, Xia Jinsheng called his assistant from the elevator, asking him to bring a cup of coffee to Gu Nanchen's office later and explain the taste.
Who knew that the little assistant on the other end of the phone would be so excited, she directly screamed at Xia Jinsheng, ”Ah, Boss Gu, he's back!”
Xia Jinsheng ignored the phone and separated it from her ear for a distance, then immediately cut off the call.
What should he do if he had a crazy underling? Online and other requirements, it was quite urgent.
”Knock, knock ~ ~”
She walked all the way to the beautifully decorated office and knocked on the door. Gu Nanchen's mellow voice came out from inside.
”Come in.”
Carefully opening the door, Xia Jinsheng stuck her head into the big office and squeezed into half of her body. Tch, there was only Gu Nanchen in the huge, simple and fresh western European style office.
”You're here?” Gu Nanchen's tone was extremely calm and gentle, like a jade green lake. However, Xia Jinsheng was sensitive enough to notice the ripples on the surface of the water as the wind blew.
There was suppressed anger in his voice.
”second uncle, what orders do you have for me?” Xia Jinsheng was aware of this fact, and immediately began to play with Gu Nanchen.
”Come here.”
Gu Nanchen's tone was the same as before, there was no difference at all.
Xia Jinsheng hesitated for a moment, but still eagerly jogged to Gu Nanchen's side like a clumsy penguin. Xia Jinsheng swore that if it wasn't to please him, she wouldn't have ignored her image.
”second uncle, what's the matter? I have to go to work. ”
”Hmm?” Gu Nanchen softly snorted, immediately causing Xia Jinsheng to stiffen her body.
”Do you know what your mistake was?” Gu Nanchen did not raise his head but instead, his gaze was focused on a document, as though he was lecturing a child who had done something wrong.
She also happily lowered her head, anxiously pulling at the corner of her clothes, and quietly muttered, ”I know, I shouldn't have been late.”
”Very good.” Gu Nanchen lightly tapped his chin, and finally raised his head, ”Knowing the law is a crime, but committing one more crime.”
Just by hearing his words, Xia Jinsheng knew that there was nothing good going on. She braced herself and asked, ”So?”
”Deduct your salary for this month.”
Gu Nanchen calmly said those words, but Xia Jinsheng was no longer calm. He excitedly slapped his hand on the desk and looked at him angrily, ”What are you joking about? Deduct all my salary for this month? ”
It had to be known that the earnings of the Gu's Group employees were extremely considerable, so it was needless to say that she, the vice minister of personnel department and the granddaughter of the Master Gu, earned a monthly salary. Adding that to the seventy to eighty percent of the salary, it was already equivalent to three months of salary for an ordinary white-collar worker.
This meant that he was going to cut off her source of income and let her drink the wind.
Uncle can endure, aunt can't.
”Hmm?” Gu Nanchen stretched out the word's syllable, which sounded extremely alluring.
