Leng Linli glanced at Sang Lishu's knees, his tone indifferent: "Because of your carelessness, a colleague was injured, everyone's work time was delayed, and the company's interests were damaged. Secretary Sang, tell me, what crime should you be punished for!"
Sang Lishu's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned deathly pale: "President Leng, I was wrong. I will never make the same mistake again."
Leng Linli said expressionlessly, "Secretary Sang, if you still can't learn to walk properly, you don't need to come to Leng's anymore. Half of your salary this month will be deducted."
"I...I understand." Sang Lishu's voice became barely audible, but she knew that Leng Linli's words were no joke!
Seeing Sang Lishu back down, Su Raoshu felt secretly pleased. She glanced at Sang Lishu with schadenfreude and exclaimed, "The president is brilliant!"
His cold, sharp gaze swept over Su Raoshu, his eyes far from kind.
Su Rao immediately shut up and behaved herself.
Leng Linli's gaze fell on Yan Zhi again, his voice low and deep: "Come with me to the office. Shi Chu, call the doctor."
"Okay, Mr. Leng." Wen Shichu dialed the family doctor's number.
"Mr. Leng, Secretary Su and Secretary Sang have already said what needs to be said, and I have nothing to add." Yan Zhi's tone was mild, not wanting to go to Leng Linli's office.
She paused, then added, "There's no need to call a doctor, I'm fine."
"I don't want to repeat myself, but as the person in charge of Leng's Group, I have an obligation to take responsibility when an employee is injured at work." Leng's cold and stern voice was calm yet carried an invisible deterrent.
"I..." Yan Zhi wanted to say something, but Leng Linli had already taken the lead and walked towards the president's office, making his stance clear.
"Go on, go on," Su Rao urged Yan Zhi, pushing her towards the president's office.
Yan Zhi looked at Su Rao helplessly, pointed to the wound on her forehead and said, "Su Rao, this little cut would have healed on its own if we didn't call a doctor soon."
"Go on, go on." Su Rao pushed Yan Zhi into President Leng's office.
Sang Lishu glanced at Yan Zhi, biting her lip in resentment. She felt even more resentful towards Yan Zhi. She was also injured, so why did President Leng only call a doctor for Yan Zhi and not for her?
Leng Linli sat on the sofa in the president's office, his legs elegantly crossed, looking nonchalant, but his deep black eyes revealed a hint of coldness and danger.
Yan Zhi walked to the sofa, looked at Leng Linli with a gloomy face, and said seriously, "President Leng, I really have nothing to add."
His cold, sharp gaze fell on Yan Zhi, his thin lips pressed into a thin line, and after a long while he finally spoke: "Does it hurt?"
"..." Yan Zhi was momentarily stunned. He called her in not to scold her?
To say it doesn't hurt would be a lie.
If she says it hurts, it would make her seem dramatic.
"It's alright," Yan Zhi said casually.
Leng Linli's face remained gloomy.
For a long time, Yan Zhi remained standing in the same spot, her cold and sharp eyes narrowing slightly, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes, before she grabbed Yan Zhi and pulled her close.
Yan Zhi was caught off guard and unprepared. She fell headfirst into Leng Linli's chest, her forehead slamming into his chest, causing her to wince in pain.
His cold, stern expression softened slightly: "If it hurts, just say so. You don't need to endure it."
Yan Zhi touched her increasingly swollen forehead, glaring at Leng Linli. It hadn't hurt this much before, but the impact had brought tears to her eyes. Yan Zhi said defiantly, "Mr. Leng, this is a work injury!"
Leng Linli raised an eyebrow, a hint of a smile appearing in his eyes: "Work injury?"
Yan Zhi pointed to her forehead, which showed signs of hardship and setbacks, and said earnestly, "It must be a work injury."
The gloom in Leng Linli's heart finally began to dissipate. He leaned closer to Yan Zhi, his voice low and mellow: "So how do you want me to compensate you?"
How will she get compensation? Yan Zhi hadn't really thought about it; her comment about a work injury was just something she said in anger.
"Pay up," Yan Zhi said casually. Anyway, Leng Linli had plenty of money, though he didn't have much else.
She looked up and saw that Leng Linli was standing very close to her. When did they get so close?
I instinctively created some distance between myself and others.
"Okay." Leng Linli readily agreed, his voice softening slightly as he made up for the distance between them.
Yan Zhi was taken aback. Why did she agree so quickly?
"Ten times the salary?" Yan Zhi asked tentatively.
"Okay," Leng Linli replied indifferently.
Yan Zhi was caught off guard; was he being so agreeable today?
Yan Zhi wondered, then... should she ask for less?
Leng Linli chuckled softly, then suddenly grabbed Yan Zhi's chin and forcefully kissed her.
Yan Zhi's eyes widened. Weren't they discussing compensation for work-related injuries? How did they suddenly start kissing?
The tenfold compensation for workers' injuries actually includes this service?
Yan Zhi shifted her body to the side, creating distance to avoid Leng Linli's kiss: "President Leng, my services do not include this special service. If you do not agree to the tenfold compensation for work-related injuries, we can discuss it further."
A slight smile played on Leng Linli's lips as he reached out and pulled Yan Zhi's head back, his voice low, husky, and magnetic: "This is an employee benefit."
Employee benefits?
Yan Zhiqi laughed: "President Leng is really hands-on. There's another employee outside who has scraped her knee. After you comfort me, shouldn't you go out and comfort her too?"
"Hmm?" Leng Linli responded calmly, his eyes gentle.
“Employee benefits,” Yan Zhi added.
Leng Linli remained silent, then smiled.
"Mrs. Leng, are you jealous?" Leng Linli stared straight at Yan Zhi, his tone ambiguous.
"Jealous? Does President Leng think I look like I'm jealous?" Yan Zhi said, involuntarily taking a step back. Leng's sharp gaze was so intense that Yan Zhi felt she was in danger.
