Chapter 8 Resignation, I'm quitting!
Qiao Mian couldn't help but feel a little smug when she said this. She knew better than anyone that Qian Zhaoye would never want to publicly announce his relationship with Qu He.
She was just waiting for Qu He to make a fool of herself!
After saying that, seeing that Qu He did not answer, she shrugged her shoulders smugly, covered her mouth and pretended to regret it, "Sister Qu He, I was just talking nonsense. If it's inconvenient, then forget it."
As soon as she said that, everyone present put on a show of anticipation.
Could it really be as the rumors say?
Qu He's fiancé is a Mediterranean man over fifty years old.
Otherwise, why would she hide it and not let anyone see her?
Everyone's curiosity was on full display at this moment.
"Convenient? Of course it's convenient!"
Qu He's voice was cold and sharp, catching Qiao Mian off guard, and the smile on her face froze instantly.
"Huh?... Sister Qu He, does your fiancé know that you made this decision on your own?"
Qiao Mian blurted out the question without thinking, only realizing afterward that it seemed inappropriate, as if she knew something.
Qu He seemed to be deep in thought and said "Oh".
"Assistant Qiao, you seem quite interested in my private life. You should use that energy on your work. I don't want to see a cooperation document being rejected three times again."
The atmosphere was tense.
Seeing this, a colleague quickly tried to smooth things over.
"Xiao Qiao is also straightforward and doesn't have any bad intentions."
"Yeah yeah!"
Tingting, who had just started her internship, hadn't heard the rumors circulating before. She was already curious when she heard that Qu He was planning to reveal her fiancé, and after receiving a helping look from the person next to her, she blurted out the question that was on her mind before she even thought about it.
"Haha, yes, Sister Quhe. Your fiancé must be very handsome."
As soon as these words were spoken, it seemed as if several crows flew through the air.
Kobayashi, standing next to him, sighed and smiled wryly.
Tingting then realized that she seemed to have said something wrong.
But it was too late to make amends.
Qu He didn't care at all, tucked a stray hair behind her ear, and curled her lips into a smile, "Yes, he's handsome!"
She looked directly at Qiao Mian's stiff face. "I'll have him come over at the next gathering, then you'll all be able to see him. Everyone remember to come, and Assistant Qiao can bring your boyfriend too."
As she spoke the last few words, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally swept over Qiao Mian.
Wow! My brother-in-law is handsome!
"I knew Sister Qu He was so beautiful, her taste couldn't be bad!"
"I'm starting to look forward to it. On the day of the dinner, I'll wear my two-digit daily disposable contact lenses, keep my eyes wide open, and not miss a single detail."
A gasp of surprise rippled through the secretariat.
After giving a brief explanation of the work arrangements, Qu He walked towards her office.
As I passed by Qiao Mian, I seemed to hear the sound of wrapping paper being torn.
After exchanging a few words, everyone gradually dispersed, leaving Qiao Mian alone, gritting her teeth.
She crumpled the flower wrapping paper into a ball, her eyes fixed on the direction Qu He had just left, her chest heaving violently with anger.
She waited at the hotel all night, but Qian Zhaoye was nowhere to be found!
Where did Qian Zhaoye go last night?
Why did you stand her up?
Qu He is dressed so beautifully today, and she even made a bold statement in front of so many people that she would bring her fiancé to the dinner party.
Could it be...?
Qian Zhaoye was with Qu He last night.
Could it be that they are really planning to go public with their relationship?
Thinking of this, Qiao Mian was already insanely jealous. She walked to her workstation, casually threw the flowers into the trash can under the table, and took out her phone to frantically dial Qian Zhaoye's number again.
But no one answered the phone.
...
Now that I have decided to sever ties with Qian Zhaoye, there is no need for me to stay with the Qian family any longer.
After returning to her office, Qu He logged into the company's OA system and uploaded her resignation application.
She had to admit that Qian Zhaoye had indeed trusted her a great deal at work over the past five years, sharing almost all of his phone passwords, email passwords, and company account passwords with her.
In recent years, she has handled almost all the procedures that require Qian Zhaoye's approval.
If she hadn't discovered the dual operating system on his phone that day, she would probably still be immersed in this false dream of "trust".
Qu He sneered and directly logged into Qian Zhaoye's account to approve the request.
Once the highest-level leader approves, the remaining procedures are completed very quickly.
After the system displayed the green checkmark "Approval Passed," Qu He slowly exhaled.
Finally, it's coming to an end.
Now, only the final step remains: submitting the resignation report, which requires Qian Zhaoye's personal signature.
She glanced at the time, then looked towards the floor-to-ceiling glass doorway.
Qian Zhaoye should be arriving soon.
Not long after, heavy footsteps were heard coming from the corridor.
Qian Zhaoye walked into the president's office with a gloomy face. Unlike his usual dignified appearance, he was surrounded by a low-pressure atmosphere today. His eyes were dark and bluish, his tie was crooked, and there were some slight wrinkles at the hem of his suit.
Almost as soon as she saw him, Qiao Mian rushed over to fawn over him, but before she could even speak, she was yelled at to "get out" and was forced to take several steps back.
Qu He smiled faintly, looked away, and felt happy.
It seems that the whistleblower call last night was very successful, even better than she had expected!
Although Qian Zhaoye didn't drink much last night, it still counts as drunk driving. Given his status, if the public knew that the president of the newly wealthy Qian Group in Beicheng had been arrested for drunk driving, it would definitely affect the company.
Therefore, he will definitely try his best to suppress this scandal!
He had an online meeting with overseas partners scheduled for half an hour later. Judging from his appearance just now, he hadn't even had time to change his clothes before rushing over.
Oh.
Qian Zhaoye, do you think that's enough?
Qu He logged out of her account, sorted out several documents that needed Qian Zhaoye's signature, and put the newly printed resignation letter inside. She then got up and walked towards his office.
Qiao Mian was still furious because of Qian Zhaoye's yelling at her earlier. When she saw Qu He walking over, she said sarcastically, "Sister Qu, President Qian said he won't see anyone. You'd better not bother him."
Qu He didn't even bother to glance at her, and without even knocking, she simply pushed the door open and went inside.
Qian Zhaoye stood with his back to the door in front of the French windows, making a phone call. Sunlight streamed in, casting a long shadow of him.
He casually tossed his suit jacket onto the sofa, rolled up his shirt sleeves to his elbows, his shoulders were taut and straight, and even the veins on his right temple were bulging.
Qu He knew that Qian Zhaoye was currently in a state of extreme anger.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar man in front of her, Qu He felt for the first time that this man was nothing special, how could she have been so blind?
She slammed the door shut behind her, without restraint.
After hearing the noise, Qian Zhaoye hung up the phone and shouted without turning around.
"Get out! I told you to leave me alone!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around, but his pupils suddenly contracted when he saw who it was.
