Ch1apter 511 The Boss’ Wife Can Do As She Pleases
Everyone in the group was of the same league. The fact that they were able to get along meant they all had something in common.
When they heard Xiao Qiu’s words, the audience craned their necks over in curiosity and asked, “What did you see that made you so excited?”
“I just saw Ye Youyou,” she said. “The very same Ye Youyou from our department. The one who used to be an actress but backed out of the industry later because of her injury. She was supposed to be the second lead in the popular drama. Do you remember her?”
The Gossip Queen kept trying to jolt everyone’s memories until they recalled who she was.
“How could anyone forget her?” a co-worker asked. “There was a rumor going around that she was GM Li’s kept woman. Don’t tell me you saw her cheating on him with another man!”
The Gossip Queen slammed her hand on the table and replied, “That, I didn’t see. But, I reckon the rumors about her being GM Li’s kept woman are true. I just saw the two of them together. They were seated together intimately. Furthermore, if they are out for supper together at this hour, I’m guessing their relations.h.i.+p isn’t that simple.”
“Did you ask them about it?” someone queried.
The Gossip Queen became upset upon hearing that and bitterly replied, “Do you think I’d dare to? My relations.h.i.+p with Ye Youyou has never been good. If I were to speak to her, I’d likely get the cold shoulder and things would get ugly.”
In actual fact, she did get the cold shoulder. The scenario had been quite awkward. The Gossip Queen knew her limits. She didn’t dare approach them again, but the others did.
When they heard what the Gossip Queen said, everyone started asking for details. She told them the exact location they were seated at. The audience broke out into tiny groups to spy on them.
They caught sight of Li Jinnan and Ye Youyou. They were eating in the corner. Everything looked quiet between them.
The business in this high-end supper joint was brisk. Many people were walking to and fro. Ye Youyou didn’t realize that she was being spied on.
Li Jinnan clearly sensed it. “Who is that at your 10 o’clock?”Visit website our Listnovel.com
Ye Youyou was in the midst of eating. She looked up and saw her former co-worker. She suddenly grew annoyed and replied, “An ex-colleague who is friend with that Gossip Queen. Chances are she’s trying to snap a shot and start some rumor in the company again.”
“What sort of rumor?” he asked.
Ye Youyou laughed humorlessly. “What else can it be? It’ll probably be something about the casting couch or being a kept woman… Anything along those lines. This group of people seriously have nothing better to do. Instead of being conscientious at work, they spend all their time gossiping away!”
When Li Jinnan heard that, he nodded his head and said, “Give me their names later.”
Ye Youyou almost choked on her food. She looked up at him in disbelief and asked, “What are you going to do?”
“My company can’t afford to hire skivers,” he replied.
Does that mean he is going to fire them?
Ye Youyou let out a sigh and said, “They have connections, and nepotism is rampant. You should check it out.”
“Oh? I wasn’t expecting that.” Li Jinnan took a bite of his food. “That’s fine. Leave it to me. Just give me their names later. I’ll get someone to look into it.”
Ye Youyou felt a sense of envy and awe. “I guess a boss is allowed to do as he pleases!”
“The boss’ wife can do as she pleases too.” Li Jinnan smiled. “In the future, if anyone offends you, fire them. As long as you’re happy.”
“I’ll never do that.” Although that’s what Ye Youyou said, she still couldn’t resist smiling.
They knew that a picture of them sitting opposite each other and eating would be taken. However, they had no idea whose hands the picture would land in.
