330: Attack the heart and divide!
Xiaoling put Xu Yao's matter first. It was actually Huabin who discovered the affair between Gao Sheng and Ding Jiajia first.
Hua Bin reminded Xiaoling. Xiaoling observed the situation for two days and asked a few close colleagues. They all had the same suspicion.
At first, Xiaoling was unsure whether to tell Xu Yao, as it was just their guess. However, Huabin was determined to tell Xu Yao. When Xiaoling mentioned it to Xu Yao, Xu Yao really took it very seriously.
After Xiaoling confirmed that the two were really having an affair, Xu Yao looked through Ding Jiajia's information and decided to give her a chance.
"I have a 20-minute break. Call Ding Jiajia to my office."
"Okay, Sister Xu Yao."
When Ding Jiajia heard that Xu Yao wanted to see her, her heart started pounding and she subconsciously looked at Gao Sheng, who was remarkably calm.
——Don’t panic, this is a normal business inquiry.
Gao Sheng sent a text message to Ding Jiajia.
The chat software is synchronized between mobile phones and computers. Gao Sheng and Ding Jiajia agreed that all private information should be sent via text messages and never leave any traces on the company computers.
Ding Jiajia quickly glanced at the content of the new text message and clicked delete after reading it.
This is also what Gao Sheng reminded me of.
Although Ding Jiajia wanted to keep the private chat records with Gao Sheng, thinking of the bright future that Gao Sheng described, she would reluctantly delete every private text message every day.
"Sister Xu Yao, Xiaoling said you were looking for me?"
Regardless of age, all the employees in the studio call Xu Yao "Sister". This is a reflection of their status and is more intimate than calling her "General Manager Xu".
Xu Yao nodded: "Sit down and talk first."
Ding Jiajia sat opposite Xu Yao, and her butt only occupied one-third of the chair.
Don't panic, this is just a normal business inquiry.
Ding Jiajia repeatedly brainwashed herself with Gao Sheng's text messages.
She thought she was calm, but her wandering eyes betrayed her guilty conscience. Especially when Xu Yao asked her to sit down and then flipped through some documents without saying anything immediately, Ding Jiajia became even more panicked.
——Ding Jiajia is not a very cunning person.
Xu Yao combined her previous impression of Ding Jiajia with her current judgment.
After deliberately leaving Ding Jiajia alone for two minutes, Xu Yao closed the file in her hand.
"You came from a small county town, right? I looked up your hometown, and it has a large population with low incomes. Getting into a big city from such a place must be difficult. In your family relations section, you listed your parents and older brother. You're not an only child, and most families prioritize resources for their sons... Ding Jiajia, you're excellent!"
Ding Jiajia blushed.
She didn't know why Xu Yao brought up these things, but her intuition told her that it was usually not a good thing when Ding Jiajia was suddenly called in for a talk by her boss.
"I'm lucky to have a generous boss like you."
Ding Jiajia blushed and managed a compliment.
Xu Yao's expression softened. "A good boss is one who appreciates his employees' efforts. I pay you for your work. I'm satisfied with your work ability, and you're satisfied with the salary I offer. Only such a relationship can last."
Xu Yao, do you know something?
Ding Jiajia always felt that Xu Yao was hinting at something.
“You pay me a very high salary!”
Ding Jiajia expressed her opinion anxiously.
Xu Yao looked at her and slowly put away her smile. "I offer you a high salary, so you should cherish it. Jiajia, it's really not easy for you to get from a small county to a big city and find a high-paying job. You also had several work experiences before coming to my studio. You should understand how the workplace works. With the same academic qualifications and competing for the same position, who do you think has a better chance of success, you or Gao Sheng?"
boom--
Ding Jiajia felt like she was hit by a heavy hammer!
Xu Yao directly pointed out Gao Sheng, and indeed he knew it.
"Sister Xu Yao, I didn't—"
Ding Jiajia's mind went blank, and she subconsciously tried to defend herself, but was interrupted by Xu Yao:
"Of course it would be best if there weren't any. Our studio doesn't allow office romances. If you want to have one, only one of you, Gao Sheng, can stay. I think it's been hard for you to get to where you are today, and I won't interfere with your relationship. I know that in many industries, men generally have an advantage over women with the same academic qualifications when competing for the same position, but I want to say that this unspoken rule doesn't apply in my studio. If one of you and Gao Sheng is destined to leave, I hope you're the one who stays! Ding Jiajia, I'm very optimistic about you, and so is Brother Bin. We all think you're hardworking and conscientious, and you've always been the backbone talent we want to cultivate."
Ding Jiajia was stunned.
She thought Xu Yao already knew about her secret affair with Gao Sheng, and even knew what Gao Sheng was planning.
Even if Xu Yao only knew about the secret relationship, she should have been called over to ask who between her and Gao Sheng planned to resign. Unexpectedly, Xu Yao didn't care at all whether Gao Sheng resigned or not, and Xu Yao didn't object to her and Gao Sheng dating. Xu Yao asked to keep her!
Xu Yao actually thinks that she is better and more valuable than Gao Sheng?
Ding Jiajia slowly came back to her senses.
Her mind is hot now.
When he spoke again, his voice was choked.
"Sister Xu Yao, I really like our studio. If I could choose, I would like to work here for the rest of my life!"
"Of course you have a choice."
Xu Yao said seriously, "Wasn't it your own choice to stay in Nancheng? Submitting your resume to the studio was also your choice. You just need to stick to your choice."
Ding Jiajia's throat was blocked.
She could choose to stay in South City to work, but she could not choose her own background.
She could choose to submit her resume to the studio, but she could not choose her parents' preference for boys over girls.
She couldn't decide about her brother's condition, nor could she refuse Gao Sheng's concern.
These are the choices Ding Jiajia really has to face! Even if she can tell them, how can Xu Yao help?
Ding Jiajia was a little flustered and stood up absentmindedly: "Sister Xu Yao, Gao Sheng and I...I'm going out to work first."
"Go ahead."
Xu Yao said softly, "Think carefully about what I just said. No matter what your final choice is, I respect you."
…
After Ding Jiajia left Xu Yao's office, Gao Sheng took advantage of the fact that everyone was busy a few minutes before the meeting and pulled Ding Jiajia to the stairwell.
"What did Xu Yao tell you?"
Ding Jiajia hesitated.
Gao Sheng took a deep breath: "Jia Jia, haven't we already planned our future?"
In the future planned by Gao Sheng, she and Gao Sheng would betray Xu Yao, and the two of them would join the team of other internet celebrities with a letter of allegiance, be together openly, and use the compensation promised by the internet celebrity to buy a house and settle down in Nancheng together... This future was very tempting to Ding Jiajia, but it also made her feel guilty.
"Gao Sheng, we can be together even if we work separately..."
Ding Jiajia whispered. Gao Sheng's eyes were fierce. "What do you mean? Xu Yao changed your mind just because of a few words? Xu Yao is as good at making promises as other bosses. Don't be fooled by her. What we really get is ours!"
