Mi Nuo was absolutely stunned.
She had never expected things to turn out like this.
As she stood there in astonishment, her eyes widened and even her mouth was agape due to the intense shock.
Her gaze was fixed on the red packet on the table. The red packet was very thick, and it looked like it contained tens of thousands of dollars. However, her fists were tightly clenched.
Who even uses cash to pay salaries nowadays? Even if she was leaving her job, they should have credited the money to her wage slip.
So what did this mean?
Were they humiliating her?
Trying to use money to give her a slap across her face?
Mi Nuo could only feel her cheeks starting to burn. She suddenly turned around and said with a slightly sinister expression, “Executive Assistant Ji, what does this mean?”
Ji Chen smiled. “It is exactly what you heard from me. There is no other meaning.”
Mi Nuo bit her lips. “Who’s behind this? Is Zhuang Nainai behind this? Does Mr. Si know? I want to see Mr. Si! You guys can’t do this to me!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she walked out.
Ji Chen stopped her hurriedly. “Mr. Si is behind this.”
Mi Nuo bit her lips. “I don’t believe it!”
Although Mr. Si was very aloof, she could feel the gentleness in his aloofness.
Until now, she still remembered when she had just joined this design industry without much experience. She used to often churn out designs that were not fresh enough. Sometimes, when Mr. Si inspected the designs, he would occasionally send her an email to talk about design concepts.
Mr. Si was such a gentle person who had seen her grow. She had also accompanied him through his growth. How could he fire her?
Mi Nuo bit her lips. “I didn’t do anything wrong, I don’t believe it! This must be Zhuang Nainai’s idea. Mr. Si is unaware of this!”
Upon hearing this, Ji Chen frowned.
Mi Nuo had already went around him and was heading straight toward the elevator.
Ji Chen pondered for a moment and did not stop her. Instead, he called the General Manager Office on the top floor.
Very quickly, May made her way to Si Zhengting’s office. After knocking on the door, she entered the room, only to see Zhuang Nainai cracking melon seeds with her teeth while lying on the couch. This was her new hobby because things were just… way too boring.
Before her eyes, Zhuang Nainai was behaving slovenly while Mr. Si was sitting very upright and still. He was not wearing his suit in the office, but all the buttons of his shirt were fastened and his tie was neatly in place. His strictness could be observed even in the tiny details.
Even when he was checking documents, his back was still very straight. Suddenly, May felt that the difference between these two people’s personalities was really huge.
However, as Mr. Si was checking the documents, he would occasionally raise his head and look at Zhuang Nainai with a gentle gaze to check if she was feeling uncomfortable, before looking down and continuing to check documents.
Meanwhile, when Zhuang Nainai’s mouth felt dry from eating the melon seeds, she would have some water and pour a glass of water for Si Zhengting as well. While Si Zhengting was still reading documents, she would even urge him occasionally, “Si Zhengting, time to drink water~”
Usually, Mr. Si would hate to have someone interrupt him when he was working, but he was not even annoyed right now. No matter what he was doing, he would immediately raise his head and glance at her before showing a helpless expression. Then, he would finish the water in the cup.
May had been standing near the door for a while when she saw Zhuang Nainai’s eyes darting around. Thereafter, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Si Zhengting for a while before smiling slyly and asking, “Si Zhengting, let me ask you a question~”
