Chapter 8: Resign? Is she willing to do so?
In the end, Yan Ruo fell asleep on the sofa in the living room.
When she was half asleep, she heard the sound of the door opening. It should be Xu Shaoyu coming back. He seemed to say something, but her head was dizzy and she couldn't hear it clearly.
When I woke up in the morning, Yan Ruo was already lying in bed.
A warm body was pressed against her back, and the warm breath brushed across her neck and cheeks, making her feel uneasy.
After steadying her breathing, she got up quietly.
He glanced at Xu Shaoyu, who looked much softer after falling asleep, and sighed.
Such a handsome guy will soon belong to someone else.
It’s really one less look, one less look!
Xiao Zhang was still driving, and Xu Shaoyu was reading documents on his tablet all the way.
In comparison, Yan Ruo, who had been sitting on the side watching the scenery, seemed much more relaxed.
When I was almost at the company, I noticed that the people around me put away their tablets.
Yan Ruo turned sideways and looked at Xu Shaoyu with a serious face.
Xu Shaoyu raised his eyes, his dark brown eyes were so deep that Yan Ruo's heart stopped.
"What do you want to say?"
"I'm planning to quit!"
Xu Shaoyu frowned, "Why?"
Yan Ruo looked down at her phone. There were still twenty minutes before work time, which was enough time.
She raised the corners of her mouth and said in a relaxed tone:
"Mr. Xu, I'm not as passionate about work as you are. Isn't it normal for me to want to quit and take a break?"
Seeing that he still had a frown on his face and looked like he didn't believe it at all, I could only come up with the excuse I had thought of for a long time.
"From my internship as a junior to now, I've been working for eight consecutive years. I was so busy last year that I didn't even go home for the Chinese New Year. I'm really tired and want to take a good rest for a while."
"At least I should go home to spend some time with my parents, and then go on a trip."
Xu Shaoyu tapped the armrest slowly with his fingers.
"Then there's no need to resign. You can apply for a leave of absence. You can take as much time as you want, and I'll approve it!"
How could Yan Ruo agree?
"I know you can't bear to leave me, a good employee who loves his job and is dedicated to his work!"
"But I'm so dedicated to my job. If I just take a vacation, my colleagues will still come to me if there's an emergency at work. How can that be considered a break?"
As she said this she smiled somewhat smugly.
"But if I resign, people will be embarrassed to look for me again!"
Although this statement sounded reasonable, Xu Shaoyu's face still looked unhappy.
Yan Ruo just pretended not to see it.
Seeing the familiar intersection, he quickly signaled to Xiao Zhang who was driving in front.
"Stop at the intersection ahead, I want to get off!"
Xiao Zhang didn't dare to make a decision on his own. He glanced at Xu Shaoyu through the rearview mirror and saw that he had no objection. Then he turned to the entrance of a remote alley and stopped the car.
Although many people in the company were secretly saying that she and Xu Shaoyu had an unusual relationship.
But Yanruo still didn't want people to notice that they lived together.
The resignation letter had already been written, and the first thing Yan Ruo did when he got to work was to go through the resignation process.
In less than half a day, most people in the company knew that Secretary Yan, who was deeply trusted by President Xu, was going to resign!
When Yan Ruo went to other departments to do some work in the morning, many people looked at her strangely.
When I met Su Qiao during lunch break, she had a look of disappointment on her face.
"Look at you, why choose to resign at such a time as this?"
Yan Ruo didn't understand. "I need to choose an auspicious day to resign?"
Su Qiao took a sip of coffee before speaking:
"Now many people say that you resigned because you had an argument with Manager Yun yesterday and offended your future boss's wife, so you had to pack up and leave!"
"There's a huge difference between quitting normally and being fired!"
Yan Ruo took great pains to avoid spitting out the water she had just drunk.
"These people are really good at making up their minds!"
"Aren't you worried at all?" Su Qiao secretly pointed to a few people standing and talking not far away.
"You have no idea how nasty their words were! I was pissed off all morning!"
Seeing that she was really angry, Yan Ru quickly poured her a glass of water and handed it to her.
"They have a mouth, if they don't say something, it would be a waste!"
"Anyway, I won't be serving you anymore in a month! I don't know if we'll ever see each other again in this life. As long as they don't come to me, let them be!"
"You are so carefree!" Su Qiao sighed.
"It's best if you can be open-minded! I won't say any more. Thanks to you, I have a lot of things to do. I'll have to work overtime every day from now on!"
Manager Yun was exiled to Xishi, and all his work fell on Su Qiao, the deputy director of the Propaganda Department.
Back in the president's office, several secretaries were gathered together whispering.
"Do you think Secretary Yan is really going to resign?"
"Who knows? Maybe he saw that Mr. Xu was getting engaged, so he deliberately offered to resign, playing hard to get, hoping to attract Mr. Xu's attention!"
"That's right! I don't believe she's willing to give up such a good job at Xu's!"
Someone looked at Secretary Zhang with disdain.
"Secretary Zhang, if she really leaves, then the position of Chief Secretary will belong to you!"
Secretary Zhang glanced at Yan Ruo who was walking towards him from a distance, snorted lightly, and did not deny it. He just spoke in a voice that everyone could hear.
"I'm afraid some people are just pretending, and after a month they'll be reluctant to leave!"
The office is already very quiet, so it's hard not to hear these words.
Others did not expect Secretary Zhang to be so provocative, especially when they saw Yan Ruo coming over, they all dispersed and demonstrated on the spot what it meant to be "a guilty conscience".
Yan Ruo still had a lot of things to deal with and was too lazy to pay attention to them. She would be leaving in a month anyway!
However, several secretaries who were on good terms with him came over.
Knowing that they cared about him, Yan Ruo had to quickly explain and comfort them.
"Don't worry! I just don't want to do it anymore!"
"I've saved some money over the years, and I'm feeling lazy, so I want to take a break!"
"Why did you quit? The picky boss; the mean boss's wife; the difficult future boss's wife; and the miserable her! Do workers need a reason to quit their jobs?"
After he finished speaking, several people around him started laughing.
"I really don't need a reason!"
"Sister Ruoruo is right. If we have enough money saved, who would still want to go to work?"
After submitting his resignation, Yan Ruo, feeling relieved, also smiled.
But after a while, I noticed that everyone's laughter gradually stopped, and looking at their expressions, they were like mice seeing a cat.
She turned her head stiffly, and sure enough, she saw Xu Shaoyu standing not far away.
There was also Yun Zhinian standing next to him, dressed in a high-end and exquisite suit.
After a moment's silence, the people who had originally gathered around Yan Ruo's workstation scattered instantly, opened their files, discussed work, and pretended to be busy with their work.
Yan Ruo didn't care at all.
She is now invincible and fearless!
Xu Shaoyu glanced over here expressionlessly and walked towards the office.
Yun Zhinian, on the other hand, smiled at her very friendly.
I finally made it to the end of get off work, enduring the stares of colleagues coming and going.
Maybe because she's leaving her job.
Secretary Chen and others invited her to have dinner together after get off work.
When I packed up and prepared to leave, the door of the president's office opened.
Xu Shaoyu appeared at the door.
"Secretary Yan, please come out with me later!"
Is there anything worse than receiving an overtime notice after get off work?
Secretary Chen and others cast sympathetic glances at her, then happily carried their bags and left.
Secretary Zhang didn't expect that even after Yan Ruo had asked to resign, Xu Shaoyu still wanted to take her with him when he went out, and he even glared at her fiercely before leaving.
Yan Ruo rolled her eyes in response.
It didn't take long before Xu Shaoyu came out.
Also appearing at the same time were Yun Zhinian, Yun's business manager, and Special Assistant Liu.
Yan Ruo followed with great tact.
From waiting for the elevator to the underground parking lot, Xu Shaoyu was chatting with Yun Zhinian about the project all the way.
Yan Ruo lowered her head slightly and stood in the corner with a very low sense of presence.
The others left without noticing.
