Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Gu Yan and the General Manager Take Leave Together
The next day, You Shuyang went as usual to Lixin Villa District to pick up Tang Yuxiu and Gu Yan for work, only to find no one there, so he called Tang Yuxiu.
Tang Yuxiu answered the phone and directly instructed You Shuyang to find someone to fix the circuit, then took Gu Yan to have breakfast outside before going straight to the company.
As a versatile assistant, even having to worry about the electrical problems at his boss’s house was beyond him.
Gu Yan and Tang Yuxiu parted ways in the underground parking lot; Tang Yuxiu took his exclusive elevator up, while Gu Yan took the employee elevator to work.
As soon as she appeared in the entertainment department, everyone who was working in their own corner stopped what they were doing and looked up at her with remarkable synchronization.
Even those who had just arrived and hadn’t yet sat down at their desks stopped in their tracks to look at her.
Gu Yan felt an awkward silence and was speechless; did it have to be so coordinated and exaggerated?
She quickly walked with her head slightly lowered to the music group’s office.
As soon as she left, everyone went back to what they were doing, but the sound of discussions gradually spread.
"Hey, she just started working yesterday, and she didn’t come to work today."
"Assistant You personally called the manager and Yang to ask for leave."
"I heard the General Manager didn’t come to work yesterday either." Someone said this, causing the entire entertainment department to burst into chatter!
Everyone at Tang Group knows that Tang Yuxiu is the most dedicated, arriving and leaving half an hour earlier and later than others, adhering strictly to the schedule.
But yesterday was neither the 15th nor the last day of the month, and the General Manager didn’t come to work, and at the same time, Gu Yan, who is the subject of many speculations among the employees of Tang Group, also took leave.
This leads them to inevitably wonder, what is the relationship between Gu Yan and their General Manager, that both of them would be absent at the same time?
What they are more eager to know is, what kind of means Gu Yan has to make the General Manager break his usual practice.
This was unprecedented.
When Gu Yan arrived at the music group’s office, the others were already there.
She first went to Yang Min to cancel her leave, and when Yang Min saw the bandage on her hand, she slightly frowned.
"Is your hand injured?"
Gu Yan awkwardly smiled, "It’s not a big deal, it will be fine in a few days."
"Will it affect the assessment a week later?"
"I don’t think so."
Yang Min thought for a moment and said, "Let’s do this, you practice these few days, and if your hand isn’t better by then, we’ll postpone the assessment until your hand heals."
Gu Yan gratefully smiled, "Thanks, Yang."
"No problem, if there’s nothing else, go back to work, and be careful with your hand."
"Okay."
Gu Yan left Yang Min’s office and returned to her seat. Just as she put down her backpack, Wang Qi came over.
"Why did you take leave yesterday?" she asked bluntly, and the other two people also perked up their ears to listen.
"High fever, slept through the day, no way around it," she told the truth, only hiding another part of the truth, which wasn’t really a lie.
"That serious? How are you now?"
"It’s fine, just need to rest a bit."
"Why didn’t you take a few more days off to recuperate before coming back?" Wang Qi asked with concern.
Gu Yan’s heart warmed, "The fever’s gone, no big deal. Besides, I just started working, and taking continuous leave doesn’t look too good."
"What’s not good about that, health is most important." Wang Qi’s eyes shifted and she exclaimed, "You injured your hand too?!"
Gu Yan explained, "The electricity went out at home yesterday, and I accidentally got hurt."
