Chapter 30. Turning around

After two days of recuperation at home, she was barely able to leave. On Monday morning, Ren Shaochen drove over to take Ruoning to work.

As soon as he entered the company, the atmosphere was very strange, and everyone looked frightened. Xiaoliu pulled Ruoning aside and lowered his voice and said: "I heard that the new boss has officially taken over Mingshang. He fired five or six people this morning, including purchasing.

Manager Choi and Designer Li were both fired."

Ruoning looked around and saw that someone was packing things, but those who were fired seemed to be people with certain style problems in the company.

After Xiao Liu and Ruoning finished talking, they immersed themselves in working hard. Ruoning sat down and as soon as she turned on the computer, the HR girl informed her to go to the manager's office. She could almost foresee what she was going to face.

Xiao Liu watched Ruoning go in worriedly. Gu Chendong clocked in at this moment and watched Qu Ruoning enter the personnel manager's office.

As soon as Ruoning entered, the HR manager handed her a dismissal letter and said directly: "I think you should know why you received such a letter."

She reached out and took the letter. After her impulse yesterday, she had already foreseen the consequences.

"The new boss's assistant conveyed his intention to clean up the bad habits in the company today. I'm sorry, you go out and pack your things." After the HR manager finished speaking, he continued to look at the computer screen and type.

Ruoning turned around and walked out the door. She couldn't argue with the matter of splashing water on Liu Hongzhi. Afterwards, she thought carefully that Liu Hongzhi might have deliberately induced her to do this, and she was not calm and restrained enough in handling this matter.

After walking out of the office, Ruoning packed her bag. She had only been working here for a short time, so she actually had nothing to pack. She just stuffed a few things into her bag and was done.

Xiao Liu secretly turned her head to look at Ruoning, not daring to say anything more. Now is the time when everyone is walking on thin ice.

Ruoning finished packing and was about to leave with her bag when the phone on her desk rang. After a moment of hesitation, she picked up the phone. It was Gu Chendong who asked her to come into his office.

"Sit." Gu Chendong was drawing at his desk and said when he heard the door open.

Ruoning sat down, and Gu Chendong didn't speak for a long time, concentrating on drawing. She couldn't help but said: "Actually, I have just been fired. If you have anything, you can contact Xiaoliu."

"I know." Gu Chendong finally paused what he was doing, looked up at her, and said, "I just want to ask you why you poured water on that client and she took a photo of the evidence. This is related to Mingshang's reputation. You

Do you know?"

"Sorry, I messed up this case and let you down." Ruoning felt sorry for the trust and importance Gu Chendong gave her.

"Aren't you going to explain the reason?" Gu Chendong raised his eyebrows slightly.

Ruoning pursed her lips tightly. She did not want to expose the family scandal and did not want to explain more.

"Go out." Gu Chendong looked away, a little disappointed with Qu Ruoning.

"I'm really sorry." Ruoning stood up, bowed and apologized, then turned to leave Gu Chendong's office.

Gu Chendong looked at her back and suddenly said: "If it's your first offense, half a month's salary will be deducted from you. I will bring over the interior floor plan of Jinjiang Garden from a few days ago."

Ruoning paused and turned around, looking at Gu Chendong in surprise with her eyes slightly widened, and said: "But I have been..."

Before she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and a man in a blue suit pushed the door open and said to Gu Chendong: "Mr. Gu, the relevant personnel have been summoned."

Gu Chendong put down his pen, took his suit jacket and stood up. While putting on the suit, he walked towards the door and whispered to Ruoning: "You can come with me too."

Ruoning couldn't figure out the situation and could only follow Gu Chendong, sitting or standing in the large conference room. Most of the company's employees were already inside, including the company's original boss.

When Gu Chendong entered, the former boss greeted him, shook hands with him, and then turned around to announce to everyone that Ming Shang would change ownership today, and the new boss would be Gu Chendong.

There was an uproar when they heard the news. Ruoning looked at Gu Chendong's back in surprise. He had kept the confidentiality strictly enough and acquired Mingshang without saying a word.

Gu Chendong walked to the middle, looked around the employees, and said: "Unless they have bad behavior, the company will not fire people for no reason. Don't worry about this. I hope everyone can continue to work hard and make persistent efforts."

The people below looked at each other, and then someone clapped, and a burst of applause broke out.

Then Gu Chendong talked about the general development and plans of Ming Shang in the future, reassured people again, and officially adjourned the meeting.

Gu Chendong took the lead to walk out the door. When passing by the HR manager, he whispered a few words to her.

Ruoning followed the crowd out, and the HR manager stopped Ruoning and asked her to tear up the dismissal letter she received this morning and pretend it was nothing.

"Xiaoqu, you are so lucky to have joined the company with the right boss." The HR manager patted Ruoning on the shoulder, smiled lightly, and walked out of the conference hall.

Ruoning could only describe this series of developments as twists and turns. One day ago, who would have thought that the new boss of the company was Gu Chendong.

After Gu Chendong took over Ming Shang as his boss, he was still working on cases. Ruoning's job had not changed and she was still working as his deputy. It seemed that everything was no different from before.

But others don't think so. Ruoning became the boss's assistant, which is equivalent to a promotion in disguise. They are somewhat envious of her good fortune.

After getting off work that day, Gu Chendong walked to Ruoning's desk and said, "Take some time to clean up and go somewhere with me."

Ruoning quickly packed her bag and followed him.

When they arrived at the underground garage, Gu Chendong asked her to get into his car. Ruoning asked, "Are you going to Jinjiang Garden?"

"Yeah." Gu Chendong started the car.

Jinjiang Garden is a well-known villa area in S city. It is located on the outskirts of the city. It was already close to seven o'clock when we opened. The summer sun sets at night, but there is only a little afterglow left.

After following Gu Chendong to inspect the decoration of the first phase of the project, it was already past eight o'clock. Ruoning's feet had not yet recovered, and she began to feel pain after standing for a long time. Fortunately, Gu Chendong planned to call it a day.

The two of them sat back in the car and prepared to return. As Gu Chendong drove, he said with a smile: "I've delayed your dinner again. May I treat you? Chinese or Western style?"

Ruoning just hurriedly stuffed a sandwich at noon, and now she was so hungry that her chest was almost touching her back. She responded: "I should be the one to invite you. Thank you for giving me another chance."

Gu Chendong did not refuse and drove to a nearby restaurant and stopped.

The two walked into the restaurant, and Ruoning handed the menu to Gu Chendong for him to decide. During the serving, she hesitated before asking: "Mr. Gu, do you mind if I ask you a question?"

"You asked."

"Why are you willing to give me another chance?" Ruoning was a little uneasy. Considering how strict Gu Chendong's work requirements were, she would never let it go easily after she made such a serious mistake.

"Because your work performance has always been good, I believe you have potential." Gu Chendong smiled slightly and changed the subject: "Of course it's not all for this reason."

Ruo Ning waits for his next words.

"Do you still remember the first time I met you in a bar?" Gu Chendong took a sip of lemonade, his eyes settled, and he said quietly: "I think your profile looks like a friend of mine."

"The person you like?" Ruoning guessed. After working with Gu Chendong these days, she got to know a little about his personality. She shouldn't be the kind of person who casually picks up girls in bars.

Gu Chendong's eyes were soft, but he smiled silently.
