“Of course.” Xie Yunzhou’s tone was light.
The a.s.sistant came out of the office and sighed heavily.
Now that rumors were spreading everywhere, the people in the company were scattered.
It was useless even if they believed it!
Even if they believed it, they couldn’t use it as money!
The a.s.sistant was busy dealing with work when he suddenly received a call from Shi Xi.
“Miss Shi?”
*
Shi Xi was waiting at the front desk with a box in hand. When she saw the a.s.sistant coming down, she said, “This way.”
“Miss Shi, why are you here all of a sudden?” the a.s.sistant asked.
“I was pa.s.sing by, so I came to take a look. I was going to pa.s.s it to the front desk and ask them to send it up,” Shi Xi explained. “I didn’t expect the front desk to not be here.”
The a.s.sistant looked at the empty front desk.
The receptionist also left.
Shi Xi pa.s.sed the cake box to the a.s.sistant. “Help me bring it up to Xie Yunzhou. Thankyou.”
“Aren’t you going up?” the a.s.sistant asked as he took the cake box.
Shi Xi thought for a moment. “Is Xie Yunzhou busy?”
She didn’t want to disturb Xie Yunzhou.
“No matter how busy President Xie is, he still has time to see you.” The a.s.sistant smiled.
“Forget about it. Let him rest for a while.” Shi Xi waved her hand. “I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first. If he’s busy, put the cake in the fridge first.”
The a.s.sistant hated himself for talking too much just now.
Now, the cake was hot.
He would put it in the fridge first and take it out when President Xie was not busy.
The a.s.sistant sighed and went upstairs with the cake.
In the elevator, his colleague saw the cake in his a.s.sistant’s hand. “a.s.sistant Xu, is today your birthday?”
“It’s a gift from President Xie’s girlfriend,” a.s.sistant Xu said vaguely.
The colleague’s gaze became gossipy again. “Didn’t you hear that President Xie’s girlfriend broke up with him? She even gave him a cake?”
Another colleague: “She asked a.s.sistant Xu to send the cake? Why didn’t she send it over herself?”
“She sent it to the front desk and I went to get it.”
The colleague guessed, “She’s already reached the front desk. Why didn’t she go upstairs to give it to President Xie? Is there something she can’t say to President Xie face to face?”
“Don’t tell me the cake says ‘Happy Breakup’?”
“Isn’t that too cruel?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. It’s nothing.” a.s.sistant Xu explained, “President Xie’s girlfriend was afraid of disturbing President Xie, so she asked me to send it up. Stop gossiping.”
When the colleagues heard the explanation, their expressions were different.
When the elevator arrived, everyone dispersed.
a.s.sistant Xu took the hot potato and put it in the refrigerator.
When he went in to deliver the doc.u.ments again, a.s.sistant Xu asked,
“President Xie, has Miss Shi said anything to you recently?”
” She’ s still in Feng City and hasn’ t come back yet. What’ s wrong?”
“Oh, nothing. I was just asking.” a.s.sistant Xu hesitated. “You’ve been working overtime too much recently. You should take care of your rest.”
“I know.” Xie Yunzhou looked at the information on the doc.u.ment and said, “Although many people have left this time, we’ve also optimized the company’s staff. We just need to recruit some new people to replace them.”
a.s.sistant Xu: “The HR Department is recruiting. However, they need to hand over the project now. It’s difficult to push the original project forward.”
Xie Yunzhou leaned back in his chair and pondered. “It’s alright. Take it slow.”
a.s.sistant Xu was shocked.
President Xie actually said to take it slow?
Instead of asking everyone to work overtime to get started?
The company wouldn’t really go bankrupt, right?
“Inform all the departments that there will be a meeting at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Tell them to get ready.”
“Alright.” a.s.sistant Xu looked at the cake in the fridge after he finished informing them. He didn’t know when to take it out.
Moreover, the cake box was opaque, so he could not see the words on it.
Did it really say ‘Happy Breakup’?
