Chapter 34 Promotion and Salary Increase
The next morning, Jun Lan, standing in front of the Lacrosse Hotel, was lost in thought again.
This place once made her sad and upset, and she once didn't want to set foot here again. However, at this moment, only this place made her feel a sense of belonging.
But Room 666 had been haunting her for a long time like a thorn in her side, making it hard for her to breathe.
Jun Lan did not go to the 6th floor to report to Nangong and Situ Fuzhi, but went directly to the customer service department on the 10th floor to work, because her favorite Lihua and Li Yu were there.
Li Yu still had the same cold expression as before. When she saw Jun Lan taking the initiative to come to her, she was actually very happy in her heart, but she said that she despised her for being stupid.
"Haven't you done hard work in your past life? Why are you coming here instead of staying with the big boss?"
"Compared to staying with the big boss, I'd rather stay on the 10th floor and work with you guys. That way I'll feel more at ease."
Li Yu leaned close to Jun Lan's ear and said, "Tell me the truth, have you been seduced? Was it the boss or Situ? Or both?"
Jun Lan said angrily: "No, not one, neither of them is as despicable as you think!"
Li Yu suddenly laughed evilly: "Ha, I knew it."
Jun Lan was shocked: "What do you know?"
Li Yu leaned close to her face again and whispered, "There is no man in this world who doesn't like women, unless he is useless or gay."
Jun Lan blushed: "Why has the foreman been so dishonest lately? If you continue to talk about it, I'll be angry."
Li Yu held up her glasses and said earnestly, "My previous seriousness was all pretended and it didn't exist. This is the real me." After she finished speaking, she was about to leave but was stopped by Jun Lan.
"Foreman, which floor of guest rooms should I clean today? Where's Lihua?"
Li Yu: "You'd better report to the 6th floor first and then come up to see me! Otherwise, you might get fired and not even know what will happen. The most taboo here is those who don't obey orders."
Jun Lan had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to room 666. Just as she was about to knock on the door, she was dragged in with a "whoosh" sound before she could even see who the other person was.
Nangong in the room was using a refractometer to examine the sapphire that they had taken back with great difficulty, while Situ stood beside him without saying a word, looking very worried.
After a while, he handed the sapphire to Situ and said, "Hide it well. If you can't find it again, I will kill you."
Situ nodded.
Nangong turned his gaze to Junlan.
"Little girl, you already knew that Liu Xi was dead, right?"
Junlan said nothing.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. On this mission, Situ praised you highly. He's been with me for so many years, and I rarely see him praise anyone like that. Since you two are working together so happily, I'm too lazy to change you. You can continue to be my personal assistant from now on. Do you have any other questions?"
Jun Lan looked disgusted: "No... No..."
"Why do you seem reluctant?"
Jun Lan cried, "Boss, please let me go! I'm really not suitable to be your personal assistant. Can I go back to being a room attendant?"
"No, Xu Takuhai has already found a new person to replace you in your previous job. Now we only need my personal assistant, so either you accept it or you leave. It's your choice, right?"
Situ: "He didn't lie to you. He really has found someone for the housekeeping department. It's hard to find a job these days, especially for someone with your qualifications. The monthly salary for a personal assistant is 10,000, plus bonuses. That's quite generous. I believe you haven't forgotten it so quickly, right?"
He winked at Junlan and held up five fingers.
Jun Lan certainly understood what he meant. After much deliberation, she finally made up her mind: "Boss, you are so wise, so powerful, so handsome, so elegant. I will do whatever you say."
"Well, although this is a compliment you didn't mean, it's the truth, so I'll accept it without hesitation. You know the current situation and your mind is quick. No wonder Situ praises you so much. Now even I'm starting to like you a little. You and Situ should go to the Human Resources Department to handle the transfer procedures!"
The two walked in the long corridor, Jun Lan pulled Situ and asked: "How is Liu Xi's secret plan going? Was it really Wang Qiang who did it?"
Situ: "How should I know? People who don't know the truth would think you two are good sisters. Does her case have anything to do with you?"
"It's okay, but I'm not as cold-blooded as you. Even if she's just a stranger, I hope she can rest in peace. You're so well-informed, so why not tell me anything you know?"
"All evidence indicates that Wang Qiang was the perpetrator of Liu Xi's case. However, he suffered a heart attack and died while being taken back to City Z for trial."
"Ah? Isn't this a case of death without evidence? How could such a coincidence happen in the world? Even as a woman, my natural intuition tells me that there must be something fishy going on here."
"Anyone with normal instincts can tell there's something fishy going on here, right? How can a woman like you, with no skills and no connections, stir up any waves? Being overly curious and knowing too much isn't a good thing. I advise you to spend more time with your friends when you have time!"
"What do you mean? Are my friends doing well lately?"
"That Lihua in the housekeeping department, your former partner, was fired. Didn't you know?"
"What? So suddenly? Why are you firing her?"
"Employee transfers are arranged by the Human Resources Department. Only those at the manager level and above need to report them. Xu Tuohai has the absolute power to decide whether employees below him stay or go. So I don't know, and I don't need to know."
"Well, I'll go ask him now why he fired such an excellent employee."
"Calm down." Situ was about to stop her, but it was too late. Jun Lan opened the door and rushed in without even knocking.
At this time, Xu Tuohai was playing with a Rubik's Cube. He looked up at Jun Lan and threw the Rubik's Cube aside.
"How boring! I was just one step away from solving my Rubik's Cube completely. And it was because you barged in without knocking that disrupted my thinking and forced me to start all over again. Don't you think you owe me an apology?"
Jun Lan: "I... I'm so sorry. I was rash and disturbed Manager Xu, but I really need to talk to you about something."
Situ: "Excuse me, do I need to withdraw?"
Xu Tuohai looked at Situ who was next to Jun Lan.
"So what brings you here today?"
Situ: "It's nothing serious. I just want to inform you that Lin Junlan has officially become Nangong's personal assistant today."
Xu Tuohai smiled slightly, "Is that so? Congratulations, Miss Lin. But even if she gets promoted to assistant, I'm still her superior, right?"
Situ: "That's natural."
"Okay, I'll take care of the rest of the procedures for her."
"Well, okay, thank you for your help."
"You're welcome. I'm just doing my job. Bye."
As soon as Situ left Xu Tuohai's room, Jun Lan asked impatiently, "Manager Xu, why did you fire Fang Lihua?"
Xu Tuohai ignored her and picked up the Rubik's Cube next to him to play with it.
Jun Lan helplessly started to act like a spoiled brat to him, "Manager Xu, Fang Lihua is very capable and has a good personality. Why did you fire her?"
