Chapter 30 You Have Done That Voluntarily
“I will call you later.” Fu Zhengzheng hangs up the phone in a hurry. As she turns around to see Han Siqi’s expressionless face, she is startled, and immediately covers up smilingly, “It’s a friend of mine. We haven’t met for a long time, so we just called to greet.”
Han Siqi raises his eyebrows and says, “Oh? So you’ll call him later. Is it called mutual greetings?”
Realizing her slip of tongue, Fu Zhengzheng hastens to explain, “No, no, I mean, uh, I will call her again next time.”
“Go and sort out the documents for me and bring them upstairs.” After saying that, Han Siqi goes to the elevator.
Fu Zhengzheng hurries to pick up documents that have sorted out on the table and sends them upstairs. She knows that the company is holding a video conference this morning.
When she sends the documents to the conference room, she sees that the video conference is ready, and everybody has arrived except Han Siqi, who is going to preside over the meeting. Fu Zhengzheng is a little puzzled, because she knows that Han Siqi is always punctual.
With that phone call in mind, she anxiously looks around. Ten minutes later, she finally sees Han Siqi coming belatedly.
The previous low-pitched noise in the conference room disappears immediately. Han Siqi sits down in the middle of the room, and Fu Zhengzheng quickly sends him the documents. Seeing that he starts today’s conference without looking at her, Fu Zhengzheng quietly gets out of the conference room and closes the door. Then she rushes back to her office to pick up her bag.
“Xu Yan, I’m going out for a while now, and I’ll be back soon. You can just call me if there is any business that needs me, but it should be okay.” Fu Zhengzheng says to Xu Yan. Before Xu Yan replying, she has already stepped into the elevator, leaving Xu Yan’s warning “You can’t skip work” behind her.
Stepping out of Weihan Building, Fu Zhengzheng takes out her phone and dials back the unfamiliar phone number.
“Hello, I’m the one who just called you to rent your house. I’m free now. I…”
“I’m sorry, Miss Fu, the house has been rented. Please look for other apartments.”
“What? How can you…”
Before Fu Zhengzheng finishes, the landlord has hung up the phone.
Last night she tried to find such a convenient and affordable house on the internet. Twenty minutes ago, the landlord asked her to look at the house, but now it has been rented!
Is it a tease?
Fu Zhengzheng is annoyed.
Last night, she eavesdropped on the conversation between Han Siqi and his brother. Unfortunately, the soundproofing effect of the room was so good that even if she put her ears against the door, she could not hear anything except a few words like “move out” and “Qiao Keren”.
As a smart woman, she immediately understood why Han Sixian kept a straight face to her and why the two men had an argument.
Anyway, she hasn’t found any valuable information in his home, and has confirmed that he is not Zhuangzhuang. Living in his home is inconvenient for her to use other time to find some valuable clues. Thinking about this, Fu Zhengzheng feels it necessary to move out.
Yesterday Han Siqi paid wage to her in advance, and there is some money left. She can make do with this money until payday, and then she can ask the finance department for help.
Even if the finance department refuses to help her, it will not be too late to turn to Han Siqi. After all, it will not be easy to ask her to move back after she moves out.
However, she can’t let Han Siqi know that she is going to look for a house outside. Now that he argued with Han Sixian last night, he would definitely not allow her to move out. Besides, Fu Xing will probably be reluctant to move out since he gets on so well with Han Siqi. Therefore, it is necessary to take action first and explain later.
She just can’t understand why the landlord has done such a disgraceful thing. At the beginning, he was polite in the phone, and asked her to look at the house whenever it was convenient for her, but now he changes attitude so fast!
Fu Zhengzheng returns to the office angrily.
When Xu Yan sees Fu Zhengzheng coming back, she looks relieved, but finds that Fu Zhengzheng looks upset. Making sure that there is nobody around, Xu Yan follows Fu Zhengzheng into the office and asks, “What’s wrong with you, Zhengzheng? Is there anything unhappy?”
The thought of the fact that Xu Yan lives near here makes Fu Zhengzheng excited again, and she says, “Xu Yan, I have a little conflict with my landlord. I want to rent another house, but I can’t find a suitable one right now. Could you help me ask about it?”
“You want to rent a house? No problem. My father works as a security guard in our community. I’ll ask him to enquire about it, and there must be good news for you.”
“Really? Great!” Fu Zhengzheng cries happily.
“Shh! Shh!” Xu Yan hurries to look out with fear.
“That’s all right. The meeting will not be over in two hours.” Fu Zhengzheng pulls Xu Yan in and presses her down. “Anyway, you are free now; we might as well sit down and talk about it.”
“Talk about what?” Han Siqi suddenly chips in, frightening Xu Yan so much that her face even changes.
“Mr., Mr. Han, we are not, not chatting, we are just, just…” Xu Yan says incoherently. She twines her hands, not knowing what to do.
Fu Zhengzheng is also shocked. Conventionally, every middle-level meeting takes more than two hours, and the meeting that takes less than half an hour like this is never seen before.
Secretly taking a deep breath, Fu Zhengzheng quickly sorts out her thoughts, guessing that Han Siqi may come out of the elevator when she pulled Xu Yan in. Then she says with a smile, “Mr. Han, we just want to talk about how to cooperate in the future to save more time and effort, so as to strive for more time and energy to work for Wei Han.”
“Really?” Han Siqi looks at Xu Yan.
Xu Yan’s dodgy eyes have betrayed her before she speaks.
Fu Zhengzheng, afraid of getting Xu Yan in trouble, pushes Xu Yan aside and straightens her back, saying, “It’s me who pulled Xu Yan in to speak with her. It’s none of her business. If you want to punish us, you can just punish me.”
“Zhengzheng…”
Han Siqi glances at Xu Yan and says, “Go back to attend to your own business, won’t you?”
“I…” Xu Yan does not dare to say anything more and hurries back to her seat.
Han Siqi goes straight to his seat.
Seeing that Han Siqi doesn’t reply to her, Fu Zhengzheng follows him up uneasily and repeats, “It’s all my fault, and it’s none of Xu Yan’s business. Please only punish me.”
“Punish you?” Leaning against the desk, Han Siqi looks askance at her and says with a faint smile, “The punishment is deducting bonuses. People who get paid in advance have no bonuses. Besides, you have got half a year’s salary in advance, what else can you take for punishment?”
“Half a year’s salary?” Fu Zhengzheng almost jumps up. “I just got two months’ salary, okay? Do you think I can’t count?”
“You and your son eat and live in my home these days. Doesn’t that cost anything? I have bought clothes and bedding for you. Doesn’t that cost anything? I have served you as a driver and bodyguard. Doesn’t that cost anything?”
“You! You have done that voluntarily!”
Han Siqi curves his lips and says, “You begged me to give you a job in Weihan. Can I not pay you?”
Fu Zhengzheng stamps her feet, bites her teeth and says, “Ok, you win. But it won’t cost me three months’ salary even if I stay in a hotel!”
“It doesn’t cost much to live and eat, but it is Wei Han’s vice president who works as a driver and a security guard for you. Weihan pays me at least five million yuan a year. How can your three months’ salary be enough?”
“In this way, I still owe you a lot?” Fu Zhengzheng is furious.
“Yes.” Han Siqi replies confidently.
“You! You rob me! I tell you, I have no money but a life!”
Seeing Fu Zhengzheng making a scene, Han Siqi says slowly without getting angry, “Anyway, you are not wrong to stick to your post, besides, you are a new employee. But as a senior employee, Xu Yan left her post without permission, so it is totally reasonable to fine her two months’ bonus. It is said that she has to support her whole family. It is not bad to let her family suffer along with her.”
“No! You cannot fine Xu Yan!” Fu Zhengzheng suddenly stands up in front of Han Siqi.
Fuck, I just chatted for a while. Do you need to go so far? I also sneaked out in the morning. If you find out, you will certainly fire me. Won’t you? Fu Zhengzheng looks calm and modest, but she keeps mumbling in her heart.
“Do you have the final say or do I have the final say?”
“Well, please let Xu Yan off,” Fu Zhengzheng is worried and lowers her voice, “I will certainly redouble my efforts to reward the company in the future.”
“Redouble your efforts?”
“Yes, yes, redouble my efforts.” Fu Zhengzheng thinks it is a favorable turn, so she nods like chickens pecking rice.
“Good.”
“Really?”
Just as Fu Zhengzheng is about to cheer, Han Siqi says, “Aunt Chen is going to take a month off. From tomorrow on, after work, you provide care for my daily life for a month.”
“Provide care for you? I will not…”
Before Fu Zhengzheng utters “not”, Han Siqi interrupts, “After a month, the salary you have got in advance is your overtime payment, and Xu Yan will not be punished, otherwise…”
Hearing this, Fu Zhengzheng immediately changes her words, “I will not disagree.”
Han Siqi nods satisfactorily, watching Fu Zhengzheng comes back to her seat dejectedly.
You want to move out in secret before I know it? Don’t you know that I am most sensitive to numbers, and have a photographic memory for numbers within 20 digits? It is no big deal for me to remember an eleven-digit telephone number
As long as I raise the price, the landlord will obediently present the key to me. That’s how money works.
Han Siqi suppresses his smile and looks at the computer screen proudly.
Fu Zhengzheng sits in her seat in a bad mood. She doesn’t know that the situation has become so uncontrollable within just one hour!
Not only can’t she move out, but she has to be assigned by Han Siqi after work!
Nanny? A graduate of a police academy should work as a nanny!
She shouts in her heart at the door: Oh, my God, you really haven’t opened your eyes!
At that moment, the door suddenly opens, frightening her to death. Then a man rushes in.
