Half a day has passed.
Su Xiaoxiao finally witnessed the true strength of the Nangong Consortium. Throughout the morning, colleagues from the document department were constantly being called away. They were either doing on-site document work or going out to act as translators, and even the supervisor was no exception.
"Finally, it's time for lunch."
Su Xiaoxiao saw that Li Shuangyue next to her almost exclaimed in surprise and cheers, so she quickly made a 'shh' gesture to her.
"Keep your voice down, or Assistant Huang will come after you later."
"Off-duty time belongs to the employees themselves. During this time, no matter what we do, we will not be scolded by our supervisors."
After Li Shuangyue finished speaking, she pointed to several colleagues who were like her, telling Su Xiaoxiao not to be too tense.
Then, she took out her employee meal card and dragged Su Xiaoxiao to the cafeteria for a meal.
Su Xiaoxiao was not unaware of the surprised looks her other colleagues were giving the two of them. Even she herself noticed that after yesterday and this morning's busy schedule, her relationship with Li Shuangyue seemed to be much better than that of her other colleagues.
However, she didn't pay much attention to it.
"Xiaoxiao, are you and Assistant Dong in a relationship?"
After getting their lunch, the two found a relatively quiet corner to sit down, and Li Shuangyue finally asked the question that had been hidden in her heart.
Su Xiaoxiao almost choked on the food she had just swallowed. She patted her chest hard and looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.
What do you mean by that?
"Don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped and I promise I won't say anything out of line."
Li Shuangyue quickly assured Su Xiaoxiao, then whispered in her ear, "Although the president said we're not allowed to gossip during work hours, we can all tell about your relationship with Assistant Dong."
"What is my relationship with Assistant Dong?"
Su Xiaoxiao seemed to have figured it out, but she was 100% certain that Dong Jinyang was definitely the one who was taking the blame.
Li Shuangyue revealed a sly smile that said, "You know what I mean," and explained with a light laugh.
"On the day of the interview, Assistant Dong made a special trip to help you; yesterday, when you were being harassed by Supervisor Huang, Assistant Dong made our entire department recite the rules and regulations together. Actually, Assistant Huang wasn't the only one who got the questions wrong last night, but the HR department still issued an order to have the supervisor and assistant switch positions."
"Does Dong Jinyang hold a high position in the company?"
Su Xiaoxiao knew that Dong Jinyang was Nangong Yi's special assistant, but judging from Li Shuangyue's tone, his position in the company seemed to be higher than she had imagined.
"Assistant Dong is second only to the head of the conglomerate, don't you know that?"
Li Shuangyue looked at Su Xiaoxiao in disbelief, but she still gave a brief explanation of the Nangong Group's affairs.
Dong Jinyang is not only the special assistant of the conglomerate, but also the acting president if Nangong Yi is not in the company.
"Have you heard? The CEO seems to be sick. All the senior executives are working under immense pressure today, and they're all complaining endlessly."
"I've worked for the conglomerate for so long, and this is the first time I've heard that the president is sick."
"Anyway, we have to be on our best today. The sick CEO is like a demon possessed; whoever gets caught in the crossfire is doomed."
...
The cafeteria, which was not particularly lively before, became bustling with gossip and chatter when most of the conglomerate's employees gathered there for lunch after get off work.
Yesterday, everyone was talking about Su Xiaoxiao, but today the topic has suddenly shifted to Nangong Yi. However, there are so many people discussing it that it's impossible to find out who started the discussion.
