Chapter 221 - The Hidden Boss
Chapter 221 The Hidden Boss
“Director, I have something to say!”
When Gu Ruoruo is arguing with Li Shi, someone in the meeting room speaks in a loud voice.
Xia Ning is just to respond when she finds that it is Fang Zheng. She hesitates for a little while, “Assistant Fang, what do you want to say?”
Fang Zheng stands up, “In my opinion, we have the meeting to communicate with other sections on experience and suggestions. It should not be a criticizing meeting like this. If we continue the meeting in this way, we will only have a fiercer arguing, which solves no problems.”
Li Shi lifts her eyebrows. She doesn’t speak in a very loud voice, but what she says is clearly heard, “Boy, you are a real flatterer!”
“I am not flattering! I am telling the truth!”
“Ha. I am also telling the truth.” Li Shi looks sideways at Fang Zheng. Boy, you are too junior to go against me.
“Wait.” At the time, Hua Tangli speaks, “I agree with Assistant Fang. The meeting should not end up criticizing someone. In addition, Director Xia doesn’t do anything wrong. Why do we magnify the problem?”
“Another man!” Li Shi says while staring at her fingernails.
The atmosphere turns tense. The sensitive issue is mentioned and everybody doesn’t dare discuss further.
However, what happens between Xia Ning and Gu Luan has actually been an “open secret”.
“Supervisor Li.” Xia Ning turns to Li Shi, “Please explain what do you mean by ‘something between Director Gu and me’.”
Anyway, it is mentioned. Let the storm rage!
Li Shi blinks her eyes. She pretends to be innocent, “Director, I said nothing. Please don’t take it wrong. I only said that you were a popular person with the Director. I didn’t dare offend you. If I said something wrong. I admit that I am wrong. I am still young. Please forgive me.”
“Based on what you said, no matter who Director Gu may attach importance to in the future, there must be something between them? According to your logic, will anybody dare work hard? It is right, you are young and haven’t stayed at the company for a long time. But you are not a primary student. You should know what is called thoughtless speeches!”
Li Shi pauses, “Sorry. I am wrong. Director, please forgive me. I will pay attention to that next time.”
Xia Ning looks at Li Shi. She slightly lifts her lips. Seemingly, the hidden boss of the recent rumors issue is found.
“OK. Let’s stop talking about my issue. Everyone can speak out his or her opinions.” Xia Ning says and winks at Gu Ruoruo.
Gu Ruoruo stares at Li Shi and opens her notebook to get ready for note-taking.
Strangely, the staff are supposed to speak freely, but none of them dare say anything.
Xia Ning slightly frowns. It seems that during the two weeks when she was away, some things changed.
It is not surprising…that Gu Luan had to take care of the department himself.
Or, when she comes back, the position of the Director may not be available for her any longer.
In an instant, Xia Ning tightens her heart. Gu Luan cares for her so much that he has really kind of crossed the line.
No one speaks. Xia Ning opens the roster to read the information of each carefully.
The director doesn’t speak and other people don’t speak, either. So, it turns so quiet that even their breaths sound obvious.
The long-time silence makes some people feel impatient. Some whispers are heard. Xia Ning still keeps reading the roster.
Then, Gu Ruoruo says, “Everyone, you may try to speak out your opinions openly. Don’t have private discussions.”
Gu Ruoruo’s words are heard and the discussion stops again.
Xia Ning darkens her eyes.
No one speaks. Well, then, let’s continue.
After about half an hour, Supervisor Wu fails to keep silent, “Director, since no one wants to speak. Why don’t you…”
“It is fine. I will go on waiting.” Xia Ning indifferently interrupts.
Supervisor Wu pauses. She turns to the others, “Anyone having any comments may speak out. Don’t keep them in your heart. The Director holds the meeting to listen to your suggestions. Anyone can speak.”
People present there to hear this. They put on different expressions and look at each other silently.
Li Shi glances at them. She says carelessly, “Well. If anyone has anything to say, say it. Or, it seems that the meeting will never be over.”
After a while, some people raise their hands.
Xia Ning’s eyes gleam sharply. She closes the roster, “You may speak one by one.”
The meeting lasts for two complete hours, from two to four. At four, Xia Ning draws a conclusion and announces that the meeting is over.
In the Director Office.
“Li Shi is really hateful. She pissed me off!” Once they return to the office, Gu Ruoruo can’t help scolding.
Xia Ning nods, “Yes, you are right. It is really annoying.”
Not expecting that Xia Ning will continue her words, Gu Ruoruo is surprised, “Does Sister Xia agree with me? I was thinking that you might give me a lecture.”
“When I was away, Li Shi’s section brought quite some burdens to you. Didn’t it?”
Xia Ning gets the right point. Gu Ruoruo forcefully nods, “Yes. Every time I went there to distribute the tasks to them, she always tried to refuse. You say, how can we have no reporters to do the interview? I was so anxious. My work was often delayed and Brother Luan needed to handle the problem in person.”
“Hum. What about the other sections?”
Gu Ruoruo thinks for a while, “The other sections were fine. But Supervisor Wu of the Editing Section came to ask me for your news every day. It is really an annoyance. If there were no other things, I always avoided meeting Supervisor Wu.”
“Supervisor Wu is quite kind.”
“But I think she puts her hands in too many things.” Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “Well. I remember someone, Fang Zheng. He gave me quite a lot of help. Basically, he finished all that I asked him to do.”
“I heard just now that Fang Zheng often asked for leave. What’s wrong with him?”
Gu Ruoruo curls her lips, “I have no idea about that. He didn’t mention anything.”
Xia Ning thinks for a while. She opens the drawer and gives an envelope to Gu Ruoruo, “You give this to Supervisor Li. Tell her that if she has any questions about the issue mentioned in the envelope, she can come directly to my office and ask me.”
“OK. Sister Xia, I am going now.”
Gu Ruoruo opens the door, when Li Baoer is coming in. Li Baoer puts her files on the desk, “Ning, I met Director Gu on the way and he told me to give you this.”
Xia Ning takes it over, “Thank you.”
“That’s all right. Well. You had quite a long meeting. Did any important things happen?”
Xia Ning shrugs her shoulders, “I haven’t been in the office for some time. There are some things to take care of.”
Li Baoer leans to Xia Ning and speaks in a low voice, “Did anyone create troubles?”
Xia Ning is going to respond when some noise is heard. It sounds that someone is walking directly to them. Soon, the door is forcefully knocked at.
“Director, I have something to say!”
