Chapter 116: Goodbye Gu Yichen
Xu Xiaoyue went out early the next morning because he really didn't want to meet Yan Ye.
Thinking back to the passionate kiss last night, the corners of my lips were so swollen after I woke up that it was unbearable to look at.
She had clearly planned everything out to break up with the man when the time was right.
Whether in terms of their families or their abilities, if she really wanted to marry a man, the difficulties she would encounter would definitely be something she could not bear.
As for the university the man mentioned yesterday, Xu Xiaoyue admitted that she was indeed very moved.
In this era where jobs are guaranteed upon graduation, there is no difference between having a good academic degree and having a stable job.
She didn't intend to use the man's resources to benefit herself while planning to break up with him.
Her household registration had probably been transferred by Yan Ye. Xu Xiaoyue decided to take the self-study exam first. Although the knowledge points of that era were very different from those of later generations, she had at least experienced nine years of compulsory education and successfully entered a 985 university.
Xu Xiaoyue just didn't believe it. It was difficult to get into Tsinghua University or Peking University, but was it impossible for her to get into an ordinary university?
In the state-owned supermarket, Wang Yue was wiping the counter impatiently.
Ever since Gao Yuan and Liu Honghong left, Zheng Jiaojiao and Xu Xiaoyue have asked for leave one after another.
There was not a single employee working at the entire clothing counter. Manager Yan simply assigned the tasks of the counter to these employees who worked at the grain, oil, rice and flour counter. It didn't look like he was going to expand the staff.
Wang Yue was assigned to clean here.
Wang Yue bent down and wiped the counter all over, then swung the handkerchief hard and it fell into the bucket beside her, splashing water.
"Gao Yuan and Liu Honghong are gone at least, but what's going on with Zheng Jiaojiao and Xu Xiaoyue?"
"No, I have to talk to Manager Yan some other day. Since they won't come, we have to recruit people quickly. We can't just do the work for them."
Wang Yue was complaining to herself and the grain, oil, rice and flour tellers next to her looked at her.
"Forget it. Judging from Manager Yan's attitude, I think this position will be reserved for those two people."
"Besides, now everyone is talking about layoffs, and you are still rushing to ask them to recruit people. It's not that easy."
In the past, there were many employees in state-owned supermarkets. These old employees said they came to work, but if there were no customers, it was common for them to lie on the counter and chat or take a nap.
I don’t know where the news of the reform came from, and they also said that there will be large-scale layoffs.
Now all the employees in the factory are trembling with fear, fearing that they will be the ones to be laid off one day.
"That's right, we all have to admit the loss."
Several people were talking back and forth, and Wang Yue was furious. "So, aren't we just getting the same salary but doing more work than others?"
"They are two evildoers..."
Wang Yue was cursing to herself when someone tugged her sleeve. She looked up and saw the "evil spirit" she had been talking about.
Xu Xiaoyue hadn't come to work for more than a week, but as soon as she stepped into the state-owned supermarket, the employees at the counter still noticed her at a glance.
The girl had two most common black braids, and wore a lake blue slanted-collared shirt that was washed clean and starched. She paired it with a white skirt, and stood like a small flower bud.
Several tellers looked Xu Xiaoyue up and down. She was wearing ordinary, casual clothes, but why did she look so charming in them?
As soon as Xu Xiaoyue entered the store, she noticed the looks cast at her by the tellers nearby. She looked down at her clothes. Although she came out early, she was not wearing the wrong clothes.
This group of people looked at her in a strange way.
Wang Yue was stunned, she didn't expect Xu Xiaoyue said she was asking for leave, but she still didn't show up after more than a week. She complained a few words behind his back, and he actually showed up.
"I'm looking for Manager Yan. Is she in the office?" Xu Xiaoyue walked forward and looked at several people with different expressions and asked.
Several people looked at each other, thinking of what Wang Yue had said. Could it be that Xu Xiaoyue heard it and went straight to Manager Yan to make a scene?
For a moment, everyone chose to remain silent.
Xu Xiaoyue thought she spoke too softly, so she repeated it again.
Only Wang Yue had the ugliest expression. She lifted the bucket, her mouth was so droopy that a bottle of oil could be hung on it. She glanced in Xu Xiaoyue's direction and said, "It's just a few complaints. Why are you so proud and even reporting it to Manager Yan?"
She spoke in a voice neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for Xu Xiaoyue to hear clearly.
Xu Xiaoyue paused, then realized belatedly that it was no wonder she felt the atmosphere was wrong, it turned out someone was teasing her behind her back.
She didn't say anything, but walked towards Manager Yan's office with her bag in her hand.
Wang Yue clenched her fists and pretended to be calm, "I said she loves to tell tales."
At this time, no one was willing to agree with her and everyone just kept their heads down doing their own things.
"You said you want to quit?" In the office, the woman pressed her forehead and looked at the woman in front of her in disbelief.
Manager Yan thought about it carefully. It seemed that the last time she went to Yan's house and Liu Ye talked about the employee adjustment in the factory. Zheng Jiaojiao's long-term illness and absenteeism did not comply with the employee regulations, and the higher-ups had decided to lay her off.
Zheng Jiaojiao didn't come to handle the resignation procedures, but Xu Xiaoyue came in a hurry.
"Xiaoyue, the factory is currently preparing to optimize some unnecessary positions, but your position remains unchanged. Your previous leave will be counted as sick leave, and your salary will still be paid as usual."
Manager Yan tried to speak softly and gently as he looked at the woman in front of him and explained.
If it were a month ago, even if Xu Xiaoyue had great abilities, she would have let him go without hesitation if he was hospitalized one moment and told her he wanted to resign the next.
Who is so lucky that I have climbed up the big tree of Gu Yichen? The man has also specifically explained it to me.
Now, even if Xu Xiaoyue quit her job, she still had to coax her. After all, Gu Yichen gave up two percentage points of profit with real money. As long as Xu Xiaoyue worked in the supermarket for one day, his profit on the purchase price of goods would be two percentage points lower.
"Manager Yan, I have made up my mind to leave. I am here to handle the resignation procedures. You don't need to persuade me anymore."
"Also, I have altered all the clothes that Ruan Wei ordered. They are all packed here and can be handed in."
The more Manager Yan tried to keep her, the more confused Xu Xiaoyue felt.
She knew her own strengths and weaknesses. Even though she had some experience in design, state-owned supermarkets rarely received large orders like the one from the art troupe.
From any perspective, there was no need for Manager Yan to keep her like this.
"Have you thought it through?"
Manager Yan did not expect Xu Xiaoyue to be so stubborn. In the capital, it was a blessing to find such a job without a local hukou.
"Let me tell you about this. Regarding the formalization I told you about before, I promise you that you will be able to get a formal position by the end of the year at the latest, and the company will also allocate you a house by then."
The woman said in a serious tone that she thought she had shown her utmost sincerity, but she did not expect Xu Xiaoyue to remain unmoved.
"Manager Yan, I told you that I'm here to handle my resignation procedures today."
Xu Xiaoyue frowned, and found it funny to think of the formal position the woman was talking about. The last time Zheng Jiaojiao plagiarized her proposal, she said that she would be given a formal position.
Moreover, Xu Xiaoyue can still recall the look on Manager Yan's face at that time. If Gu Yichen had not stood up, this submitted proposal would probably have become someone else's.
The longer Xu Xiaoyue has been here, the more clearly she can see some people and things.
Manager Yan is indeed conscientious and responsible in her factory affairs, but her diligence is not absolute.
Manager Yan had a headache. He took out a form from the desk, quickly signed his name on it, and handed it to Xu Xiaoyue.
"Since you have made up your mind, I will not persuade you any more. Turn left and go to handle the formalities."
The woman was so straightforward that she was completely different from before. Xu Xiaoyue took the watch and looked at it doubtfully.
After walking out the door, Xu Xiaoyue pinched the paper in her hand and looked in the direction Manager Yan said.
I didn't meet the person who handled the procedures, but instead I met an old acquaintance.
"Gu Yichen, why are you here?"
