38: Chapter 38 Good heavens! This tomboy I've been scolding the whole way is the general manager!

9:45.

A buzzing sound of discussion had already filled the office.

"Aren't we supposed to have a morning meeting?"

"If we don't start soon, it'll be noon!"

"Where is the General Manager?"

"Nothing happened to them, right?"

...

Xia Ning didn't look too well; feeling her stomach ache worsen, she hurriedly took a sip of hot water.

She had the flu today, and it was also that time of the month; drinking hot water really did help.

However, she suddenly noticed Qin Xun beside her looking completely carefree, folding a toad out of an A4 sheet of paper, which made her feel a bit annoyed.

"You look very happy?"

Qin Xun finished folding the toad, placed it on the desk, and pressed it, making it jump a few times.

He said with a smile,

"The General Manager is almost an hour late on their first day. Looks like they're one of us, someone who likes slacking off. Life shouldn't be too hard from here on out."

"They're a good president!"

Xia Ning: "..."

She felt a bit helpless.

This guy was thinking about slacking off every single moment.

It was as if he would die if he didn't slack off for a day!

Even his criteria for judging whether a company president was good or not was whether they would let him slack off.

Suddenly!

She heard Qin Xun's voice get a bit loud and slightly distorted.

"Holy crap!"

"This president really is one of us, came all the way here with me!"

Xia Ning turned her head to look and saw that Qin Xun's gaze was fixed on the entrance of the company office, his expression as if he had seen a ghost.

Following his gaze, she saw Niu Xiaojun slowly walking into the company, welcomed by Cheng Wan.

Seeing Niu Xiaojun in a suit and looking serious, she really did have a bit of the aura of someone in a high position.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she suddenly heard Qin Xun say urgently,

"Little Xia, give me a mask."

Xia Ning turned her head and, seeing Qin Xun looking a bit nervous, couldn't help but be puzzled.

"What's wrong?"

Qin Xun: "I've been infected with the flu by you!"

Xia Ning: "..."

"I don't have any more. This is the only mask I have."

Qin Xun nodded: "Thanks!"

Xia Ning was confused, not knowing where his "thanks" came from, and just as she was doubting whether he had really become too civilized and polite,

A large hand reached over and snatched her mask.

With lightning speed, he put it on his own face.

Xia Ning: "!!!"

She reached out to grab it back.

"What are you doing?"

But Qin Xun grabbed her wrist, making her unable to move.

Qin Xun's voice softened a lot. He glanced at Niu Xiaojun, who was being welcomed into the General Manager's office by Cheng Wan, sighed, and explained,

"You might not believe it if I tell you."

"On my way to the company, I had a tiny little conflict with our beloved General Manager."

Xia Ning was stunned, feeling this fate was truly absurd.

Seeing him snatch her mask and looking like he wanted to stretch it out to cover his entire face, she was a bit skeptical.

"How small is the conflict you're talking about?"

Qin Xun sighed again.

"I cursed at her."

Xia Ning: "Did you curse very nastily?"

Qin Xun: "Just standard, ordinary profanity. Like 'f*** your mother'."

Xia Ning: "..."

Qin Xun: "And 'f*** your sister'."

Xia Ning: "???"

Qin Xun continued: "And 'f*** your grandmother'."

Xia Ning: "!!!"

It wasn't over yet.

Qin Xun said again: "And 'f*** your great-grandmother'."

Xia Ning was speechless for a long time. She turned her head and sighed.

"You're dead."

...

The morning meeting started at 10 o'clock.

Qin Xun blended into the crowd, entered the meeting room, and stood in the very corner, where there was no surveillance.

He just felt a headache coming on.

He was still 4990 points of slacking-off value away from being able to draw a prize!

Getting fired today would be the end of it!

...

The atmosphere of the morning meeting was very enthusiastic.

The applause today was exceptionally loud.

Qin Xun had no heart to listen. In a trance, he heard Cheng Wan introducing the General Manager, called something like Niu Xiaoju?

Had some big family business.

Something about studying abroad.

Then it was Niu Xiaoju going on stage to greet everyone, saying a bunch of empty bureaucratic nonsense, painting one big picture after another.

The applause rang out again and again.

Xia Ning stood beside Qin Xun and found his absent-minded look quite funny.

Indeed, everything has its counter.

Once the "General Manager" arrived, this guy immediately became as obedient as a kindergarten child!

...

Don't know how long passed.

The morning meeting finally ended.

Qin Xun blended into the crowd again, returned to his workstation, hid his head behind the computer screen, and buried it low.

The sound of keyboards rang throughout the office.

Clatter, clatter, exceptionally loud.

It seemed the big picture painted by the General Manager was exceptionally sweet!

Five minutes later.

Qin Xun returned to normal, opened his computer, and began to work in a pretentious manner again.

Xia Ning turned her head to look at him and found that his expression was a bit more serious than usual, feeling a little proud in her heart.

She felt that on the road to taming this stubborn donkey, she had made long-term progress again.

She planned, under the pressure given by this fake president Niu Xiaojun, to turn Qin Xun into a truly excellent employee step by step.

Seeing Qin Xun work seriously for five minutes, although he hadn't written anything, at least his expression was serious.

Xia Ning quietly left her workstation, took the opportunity of going to the restroom, and snuck into the General Manager's office.

She closed the door.

She saw Niu Xiaojun sitting lazily on the sofa behind a large desk, sighing, with a flash of resentment on her face from time to time.

She seemed to be recalling something painful.

Xia Ning thought of what Qin Xun said, that he had greeted all the females on Niu Xiaojun's family tree this morning, and held back her laughter.

"What's wrong with you? You don't look too happy."

Niu Xiaojun was so angry she punched the table.

"I had planned everything well today. Who would have thought I would run into a huge idiot on the way."

"I cursed at him the whole way, and in the end, my motorcycle was detained by the traffic police."

"As a result, I was late, and I lost face for you."

Xia Ning hurriedly corrected her.

"Now you are the president, and I am just a small planning assistant. Don't talk about losing face for me."

Niu Xiaojun adjusted her suit, smiled a little embarrassedly, and waved her hand.

"Let's not talk about this, let's not talk about this."

"I'm just a figurehead."

As she spoke, she pulled a pen from the pen holder on the table and stabbed it into the air a few times.

"I'm thinking right now, tomorrow morning at six, I'll switch to my best motorcycle, go to the mountain to find that big idiot, and I must teach him a lesson."

"I'm just afraid he won't dare to go."

Xia Ning was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed.

"Why wait until tomorrow?"

"He is in this company, he is the... temporary core employee we were guarding downstairs last night."

Niu Xiaojun was stunned, somewhat disbelieving.

This damn fate!

Three seconds later.

She slammed the table.

"I want to fire him! I must fire him!"

Seeing Niu Xiaojun lose her composure, Xia Ning raised her index finger and made a shushing gesture.

"Calm down."

"The current situation is that he can leave the company, but the company cannot leave him for the time being."

Niu Xiaojun's expression was uncertain, and finally she sat down weakly, hanging her head, seemingly thinking about something.

Gradually, there was a light in her eyes, and a dangerous arc appeared at the corners of her mouth.

"Then I will keep him in the company and slowly play him to death."

Xia Ning frowned slightly and tapped the table.

"Just raise it heavily and put it down lightly, don't scare him away."

"Later I will ask Cheng Wan to call Qin Xun to your office. You should take a step back, and the two of you should reconcile properly, so as not to affect his work efficiency."

Niu Xiaojun: "..."

She sighed.

"You'd rather wrong me than wrong him."

"I understand, you don't love me anymore."

Xia Ning: "..."

Xia Ning left the General Manager's office and walked back to her workstation, but saw that Qin Xun was not at his workstation, and her heart skipped a beat.

Did he get scared away?
