Lu Anning raised his eyes, his cold gaze revealing an unquestionable majesty: "Can't you read? As a secretary, who gave you the courage to question the boss's decision?"
Hu Qian was frightened by the overwhelming momentum and it took her a while to come back to her senses.
"Even if you're the boss and you discipline an employee, you should give a reasonable reason. Otherwise, how can you convince others?"
Lu Anning curled his lips. "You're trying to convince me? Secretary Hu, who's been in the job for three to five years, doesn't he know that a secretary's most basic duty is to obey the boss's orders? I was still in a meeting, and you secretly left work to go eat, acting so confidently against my words. What? Do you think I'm a paper tiger?"
Hu Qian was speechless for a moment when she was hit by the words.
"I……"
"Wearing full makeup and wearing Chanel pink, is 27-year-old Secretary Hu anxious to become the boss's wife? Unfortunately, I'm not a man. I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Hu Qian's face flushed red after being told what she was thinking. It took her a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "I didn't."
"I'm not satisfied with your work. Not only can I deduct your bonus and issue you a reprimand, I can even fire you right now."
Lu Anning's face was cold, and he exuded an indescribable majesty. At this moment, Hu Qian realized that this new boss was not as easy to fool as she had imagined.
She frowned and bowed her head to admit her mistake: "Boss Lu, I know I was wrong. I accept the company's punishment!"
"There won't be a next time! If you make me unhappy again, just get out."
Even if she is an outsider, even if she has just taken over the company, it is impossible for her to be controlled by a secretary.
Hu Qian was frightened and quietly retreated with her head down. Only after the door closed did she slowly look up, her eyes dark.
Lu Anning was using Hu Qian as an example to scare the monkeys and sound a warning to the people below him.
It is certain that Hu Qian is not convinced!
Lu Anning stared out the window, frowning. One secretary didn't seem enough. Hu Qian might be familiar with the company's business, but she always felt that Hu Qian was not a person who would settle down.
If this knock doesn't work, she still needs to make preparations in advance and find someone who is capable of doing the job for her.
After this incident, Hu Qian calmed down a lot and became more active at work in the afternoon.
Lu Anning thought Hu Qian had learned her lesson, but in the afternoon, she suddenly received some snacks delivered by Lin Tao himself, and she gave one portion to Hu Qian.
Hu Qian accepted it with a smile: "Mr. Lu, the dim sum at Ruyizhai is not only expensive, but you have to wait in line for a long time to buy it. I really envy you! If it were me, I would definitely not be able to eat such delicious dim sum."
"Work hard, and I will not treat you unfairly."
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
Tang Jingyuan ordered the snacks for her because he saw that she didn't eat well at lunch. Lu Anning couldn't finish them by herself, so she thought of giving them to Hu Qian to try. Girls should like these.
Who knew that all this was just Lu Anning's assumption.
When she got off work, she didn't let Hu Qian work overtime with her, but she overheard Hu Qian's complaints.
"What's wrong with Ruyizhai's snacks? They're so greasy that they make my teeth ache. What's there to brag about? You give me a slap in the face and then give me a sweet date. Do you treat me like a three-year-old child? Didn't Lu Anning get to her current position because of the power of the Tang family? Without the Tang family's support, she would be an orphan, even worse than me. What's there to brag about?"
Lu Anning paused, waiting until the elevator doors closed before she emerged from the tea room. In the trash can at her feet, the box of snacks had been punctured beyond recognition.
Lu Anning withdrew her gaze and became more determined. She had to find someone new.
Hu Qian, I'm afraid you won't stay long.
When Tang Jingyuan came to pick her up, it was already dark and she was the only one still busy in the company.
Liu Lin would be coming to the company tomorrow to sign her new contract, so she needed to coordinate with the R&D department in advance. She had considered letting Liu Lin take on the position of Deputy Director of R&D. Given her experience, she was well-deserved.
Seeing that she was the only one there, Tang Jingyuan frowned, "You alone? Didn't your second uncle say that your secretary's business skills are pretty good?"
Lu Anning sighed and packed his things.
"His business skills may be okay, but he's restless. He even expected me to be a man. I'll have to look for a suitable person again."
"If it doesn't fit, change it. You have to be comfortable using the people around you."
"Someone like Lin Tao is pretty good."
Tang Jingyuan raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and said nothing more.
However, within a day, Lu Anning had already deeply understood how difficult it was for Tang Jingyuan. Fortunately, everything was going smoothly. As long as the company continued to develop according to her plan, it would continue to improve.
As for some problems within the company, she still needs to slowly resolve them.
Lu Anning suddenly missed Zhong Ling. She and he had the best understanding, and they could get twice the result with half the effort.
She looked at her phone, hesitating whether to contact Zhong Ling. But she thought, she's doing well in Jiangcheng, and she might not be willing to leave her hometown and come to Kyoto. But in an instant, she gave up the idea.
Tang Jingyuan came out of the bathroom and saw this scene. He paused while drying his hair, then stepped forward and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"No, I'm just hesitant. I don't know where to find the right person to help me."
It is hard to find someone as capable and reliable as Lin Tao.
When Liu Lin signed the contract to join the company, Lu An Ning went to receive her in person. Also present was Tian Liang, the director of the R&D department. Tian Liang was a middle-aged man in his forties, a typical academic with a love for money. When he learned that Liu Lin was going to join the company, he was extremely happy and even offered to give her the position of director.
Lu Anning refused. Tian Liang was a veteran of the company and more familiar with its operations. Liu Lin was more capable and younger, so a promotion was inevitable, so there was no rush.
Liu Lin was most concerned about the laboratory conditions and equipment before, but after visiting in person, she no longer had any objections to signing the contract. Feeling Lu Anning's sincerity, she didn't even mention the salary.
In the office, Liu Lin was about to sign when the front desk staff came hurriedly.
"Mr. Lu, Gu Yu, Professor Gu is here and threatened to look for you and Professor Liu."
Liu Lin paused, glanced at Lu An Ning, and signed her name without hesitation.
"I'll take care of it." She put down her pen and walked out the door. Lu Anning had a bad feeling and followed her.
