Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Zhuang Nainai sat anxiously at her desk. She could not sit still at all as she stretched her neck to look at the office’s door. Why was Zhang Chaowen taking so long to talk about her matter with Director Mi Nuo?
While she was in a state of panic, she received a call from Mi Nuo’s secretary, Li Li, asking her to visit Mi Nuo’s office.
Zhuang Nainai’s heart sank. Could it be that this matter had really blown up?
After taking a deep breath, she headed upstairs. Forget it, worse comes to worst… she would ask Si Zhengting to settle this. He had caused this problem, how could she let herself be fired over this?
A few days ago, Zhuang Nainai definitely would not have had the guts to ask this of Si Zhengting, but their relations.h.i.+p had changed for the better, so he wouldn’t… be angry, would he?
As she thought of this, Zhuang Nainai managed to calm herself down.
Soon after, she arrived at Mi Nuo’s office.
Upon entering after knocking on the door, she saw Zhang Chaowen glaring at her with wide eyes. He was so angry that his protruding stomach was rising and falling as he breathed. The gaze he directed at Zhuang Nainai was almost like lasers that could petrify her.
Zhuang Nainai looked toward Su Jinhui hurriedly, trying to gauge how things were going from his facial expression.
However, she realized that Su Jinhui was also pulling a long face. When he saw Zhuang Nainai, he had forced out a smile for her, but Senior… she could not bear to look at that smile!
Zhuang Nainai already knew that things were not looking good.
Mi Nuo sighed. “Zhuang Nainai, these two leaders are arguing about your punishment. I called you up because I want to ask you what you think of this matter.”
What she thought of this matter?
She really thought that she had not done anything wrong. It was so obvious that Zhang Chaowen was trying to misuse his authority to make things difficult for her, what more could she say?
The way Mi Nuo was handling things was weird too. It was just the punishment of an insignificant employee, so she could have just reached a decision by herself and informed her, couldn’t she? Why had she called her up?
While she was still pondering about this, she saw Mi Nuo signaling her, and then she smiled and pointed toward Zhang Chaowen.
Zhuang Nainai understood that the gesture meant that she had to apologize to Zhang Chaowen. She looked at Zhang Chaowen with a serious look on her face. “Mr. Zhang, it’s my fault for not turning off my phone during the meeting. I’m sorry, I promise that I won’t do it next time.”
Zhang Chaowen noticed Mi Nuo’s behavior and felt an inexplicable sense of anxiety.
If even Director Mi fancied Zhuang Nainai so much, he would really be at risk of losing his position as Head of the venue design department!
Initially, he had decided to forget about how Su Jinhui was arguing with him, but now… he must make use of this incident to chase Zhuang Nainai away!
He scoffed, “Next time? So the company regulations are just for show and you think there’s still a next time?”
Upon saying that, he looked at Mi Nuo. “Boss Mi, how can the company keep a person like this?”
Mi Nuo said appeasingly, “Boss Zhang, this is indeed a small issue. Let’s just forget about it. Zhuang Nainai is very talented and our company leaders really value her…”
Zhang Chaowen felt more threatened precisely because she was valued!
Zhang Chaowen pulled a straight face. “No! This matter should be handled seriously! I am the Head of the venue design department. Why are others deciding how our department’s matters should be handled? If we don’t fire her right now, I will resign voluntarily!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of the people in the room changed.
Mi Nuo looked embarra.s.sed. “Boss Zhang, take it as saving me some face…”
“No. Boss Mi, since you are defending her so much, I shall call executive a.s.sistant Ji now and ask him exactly how this matter should be handled!”
