284: Chapter 284: Prohibiting Office Romance!
Lin Shuang: …???
“Saying Su, what’s up with you these past few days?
Have you swallowed gunpowder?
Why are you so hot-tempered?” Lin Shuang asked, speechless, still wanting to persuade her…
Ding Wei stepped forward, shook her head, and said, “Big brother Lin, please don’t get involved in my matters.
I’m the one with the unrequited love for you.
I’m sorry for dragging you into this.
I’ll resign; let’s not implicate you.”
“President Su, I’m sorry, I’ve let down the faith you placed in me.” Ding Wei nodded apologetically to Su Wanqiao, and then she left straight away.
Ding Wei didn’t want to cause trouble for Lin Shuang; it was better for her to leave.
Lin Shuang wanted to go after her but was stopped by a shout from Su Wanqiao.
“What are you doing?
Can’t bear to see her go?” Su Wanqiao asked with cold sarcasm.
Lin Shuang paused, giving her a speechless look, “What’s going on with you these last few days?
Have you swallowed gunpowder?
Why do you explode on sight of anyone?”
“I’m just properly upholding the company’s rules,” Su Wanqiao replied coldly.
“Upholding rules means forcing someone to resign?
Su Wanqiao, you’ve truly become colder and colder.
I can hardly see through you anymore.
You and the young Su from back then are like two different people.” Lin Shuang shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of disappointment.
The young Su of those days, kind and cute, warm-hearted.
She would go as far as donating her own bone marrow blood to save the orphan Lin Shuang.
But what about the current Su Wanqiao?
Cold and ruthless, without a shred of mercy.
The two seem like entirely different people.
“Stick to the duties of a driver and bodyguard!
You have no business guessing what goes on in a leader’s mind!” Su Wanqiao snapped coldly before striding away in her high heels.
Lin Shuang watched her departing figure and could only shake his head in resignation.
After all, this woman once saved his life.
No matter how cold-blooded she became, Lin Shuang had no choice but to bear it.
…
After returning to the CEO’s office, Su Wanqiao finally calmed down a little.
At that moment, she began to have regrets.
Actually, nothing had happened between Ding Wei and Lin Shuang.
Why did she need to take it so seriously and get angry?
Even Su Wanqiao herself couldn’t understand why, upon seeing Ding Wei with Lin Shuang, she would become inexplicably irritated and bitter.
Could it be?
An idea flashed through Su Wanqiao’s mind, but she quickly shook her head to dismiss it.
Impossible, that’s not possible!
After pondering for a long time, Su Wanqiao still called the HR department.
“Is Ding Wei processing her resignation?
Return her resignation application.
Don’t allow her to resign,” Su Wanqiao instructed the HR department on the phone.
Ding Wei’s resignation application was returned.
Su Wanqiao got up personally and went to the HR department to find Ding Wei and calmly discussed the matter with her again.
After calming down, she spoke patiently with Ding Wei and ultimately prevented her from resigning.
Furthermore, Su Wanqiao gave Ding Wei a 30% raise as a form of compensation.
After all, Su Wanqiao wouldn’t apologize proactively.
A leader never admits fault; a leader only increases subordinates’ salaries, using this magnanimous approach to compensate Ding Wei.
Under persuasion, Ding Wei eventually agreed not to resign.
And she promised Su Wanqiao that she would not develop a romantic relationship with Lin Shuang within the company.
She would be cautious.
…
In the afternoon, to reinforce the company’s control, Su Wanqiao gathered all the company’s stakeholders and instituted a new rule, “Ban on Office Romance.”
However, this rule met with opposition inside the conference room…
from Deputy General Manager Ren Kexin.
Su Wanqiao looked at her with puzzled eyes.
“Manager Ren, why do you oppose this rule?
Give me a reason,” Su Wanqiao asked coldly with her penetrating gaze.
“Office romance isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
If they want to date, let them date.
Everyone is young.
With so many post-90s and post-00s college students at our company, why should we stop them from freely dating?
Love is a human right,” Ren Kexin directly countered.
Su Wanqiao glared at her, “Where did you get so much to say?
As a subordinate, you should just follow the leader’s command.”
But Ren Kexin persisted and continued to object.
Su Wanqiao got somewhat angry, “You oppose so fiercely; are you perhaps secretly having an office romance?!”
Ren Kexin spoke outright, “That’s right, I am indeed engaged in a secret romance, and the person is a male colleague from the company!”
Whoosh!
At those words, all the high-level executives in the meeting room turned shocked faces?
Su Wanqiao’s eyes hardened as she asked directly, “Who?”
“Your driver, Lin Shuang,” Ren Kexin said without concealment.
