Thinking of this, Su Ke wanted to change the location again.
However, he was short of money and was in a bit of a predicament.
After Liu Nian left, it was still early, so she went to the mall to pick out a gift for Su Ke.
After browsing around, I finally chose a watch.
She noticed that Su Ke's watch wasn't a well-known brand and the style was outdated, so she thought she should just give him a new one.
Having chosen the gift, Liu Nian returned home.
The next morning, Liu Nian arrived at the Li family's residence as usual.
She sensed something was off as soon as she entered the secretary's office.
Liu Nian put down her bag and glanced at another secretary not far from her desk.
The secretary happened to be looking at her as well.
Liu Nian smiled at her and asked, puzzled.
"What's wrong with everyone today? They're all acting strangely."
The secretary seemed to know about the problem.
She sighed.
"President Li looked very grumpy when he came to the company today."
Liu Nian raised an eyebrow. When did Li Yao not have a sour expression at work? But what's so strange about that?
"Yesterday, when President Li went to a social event, he brought Secretary Xu with him."
Liu Nian asked in confusion, "Hmm! And then what happened?"
"Secretary Xu can't hold his liquor. He drank too much and ruined the project that President Li was planning to discuss."
"Ah! Are you drunk and acting crazy?"
"I heard that's true. It even angered President Li's business partner, who then left."
"Our secretariat is going to undergo a major reshuffle. President Li has issued a notice that we're going to lay off staff."
Liu Nian nodded to indicate that he understood.
However, she didn't believe that the project she was so eager to secure would fall apart; it was probably just an excuse.
I sat quietly at my desk and started working.
More than two hours had passed when Li Yao called from the internal line.
With the workday about to end, Liu Nian couldn't understand why Li Yao had called her over. She could only tidy up her desk before getting up and heading towards the president's office.
Li Yao sat at his desk, his face cold.
After Liu Nian came in, she stood properly in front of him.
"Mr. Li, what are your orders?"
Li Yao pushed a document over: "Have you reviewed this project proposal?"
Liu Nian picked it up, looked it over, and nodded.
This was a plan she worked on last month, and she thought it was well done.
"President Li, is there a problem with this proposal?"
"No problem, you can take charge of following up on this project."
"This project doesn't belong to Secretary Xu..."
"She was fired."
fleeting time:……
It seems we really need a complete overhaul!
"OK."
Li Yao waved his hand: "Go out."
Liu Nian nodded, took the documents, and left the office.
The professional smile on her face vanished instantly.
This project is currently underway, and if she's in charge, she won't have any free time during this period.
She had to make time to go to Suko's place today, otherwise all her hard work over the past few days would be for nothing.
"Secretary Liu, what did the president want to see you about? Did you get scolded?"
As soon as Liu Nian returned to her desk, a colleague came to find her.
"No, he's just in a bad mood, and he looks really grumpy."
"Sigh! We're in big trouble this time. I just don't know if I'll be among the layoffs."
"Relax your mindset."
All morning, Liu Nian was busy, all in order to free up some time for tonight.
At lunchtime, Liu Nian grabbed her computer and disappeared in a flash.
When Li Yao came looking for her, she was already gone. He frowned, and his face darkened again.
Liu Nian sat in a coffee shop not far from the company.
After ordering a coffee, she turned on her computer and started typing furiously, without touching the coffee at all.
She rushed back to the company just before it was time for her to start work.
She was so busy all day that she didn't even have time to check her phone.
Finally, at 5:30, she still left work on time as usual.
She negotiated several big projects for Li Yao, so Li Yao was very generous to her. She didn't have to work overtime or go out for social events often. Unless it was a necessary collaboration, she generally wouldn't show up.
After taking her phone and bag and setting up her computer, she left the secretary's office in a cheerful mood.
Meanwhile, many of her colleagues, who were still working overtime at their desks, looked at her with envy.
"Thank you, Assistant!"
As soon as I stepped out of the office, Shit walked right towards me.
"Secretary Liu, are you about to leave work?"
"Hmm! Is there something you need here?"
"It's nothing."
"Oh! See you then!"
As she hummed a tune, she entered the elevator.
Her phone had already received several messages.
All the posts were from Su Ke's friends, but the birthday boy himself didn't receive a single one.
The gift I picked out yesterday was already in the car. Before getting in, I checked it again and then set off.
Su Ke was busy cooking, and only after he had finished several dishes did he notice the time.
It's already past 6:10.
Liu Nian didn't send him a message.
He frowned and asked Xiao Yang, who was also busy.
"Have A-Yue and Xiang Rong arrived?"
Xiao Yang: "They should be on their way, probably arriving soon."
Su Ke nodded, left the kitchen, and returned to his room.
He was just about to call Liu Nian when he heard several voices coming from the living room.
He glanced at his clothes and left the room.
It was Si Yue, Zhang Xiangrong, and a few other classmates.
The year hasn't arrived yet.
"Happy birthday, Ake!"
As soon as Si Yue saw him, she went up to congratulate him and gave him a gift.
