Chapter 535: Sorry, Mr. Zhang

Chapter 535: Sorry, Mr. Zhang
At Bai Xueli's invitation, Su Mingzhe prepared to play billiard with a few people.

The receptionist who was about to pour tea hurried over and took the coat that Su Mingzhe had taken off.

Just as Su Mingzhe turned around to catch the club and prepared to tee off, the receptionist called out in a low voice:
"Cousin Mingzhe——"

"Ok?"

Su Mingzhe was a little confused when he was called. He turned around and suddenly felt that the receptionist looked familiar:
"Why does this face look so familiar? It seems to be Jiang Nansun's best friend Zhu Suosuo... But why does she call me cousin?"

After my mind was stuck for a few seconds, old memories came back to me.

Su Mingzhe suddenly remembered that during the Chinese New Year, Zhu Suosuo stayed at Jiang Nansun's house. The original owner had met Zhu Suosuo several times when he accompanied his parents back to the Jiang family to visit his grandmother.

At that time, Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun called themselves cousin.

After remembering the reason, Su Mingzhe immediately showed a trace of embarrassment and guilt on his face:
"Are you Suosuo? I haven't seen you for a few years, but I didn't recognize you."

"Cousin, it's me. I almost didn't recognize you."

Zhu Suosuo just called out cautiously, but she was still a hundred thousand uncertainties in her heart.

After all, the 'cousin Mingzhe' she knew was just a tall and handsome boy.

The big boss of the company in front of him was not only tall and handsome, but most importantly, the five CEOs were circling around him, looking mighty and domineering, with an imposing manner, and awe-inspiring...

"Why do you work here?"

Su Mingzhe was a little surprised. He remembered that Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun were both seniors and were still taking classes at school.

Zhu Suosuo, who was originally very happy to meet Su Mingzhe, was asked about her sad story. She pouted her sexy red lips and complained:

"My father got married again at the beginning of the year. He married a Southeast Asian woman and they settled down abroad. In May, he called me and told me that I was an adult and had to be self-reliant in the future. Since then, he has never given me living expenses. I haven't even paid my tuition for my senior year, so I have to work part-time..."

When Su Mingzhe heard Zhu Suosuo's "complaint", a look of pity appeared in his eyes:

"You should be attending classes at this time, at least finish the last half year. How about this, give me your bank card number and I'll transfer tens of thousands of dollars to you first. After you finish this semester, you can come to work in the company."

Zhu Suosuo didn't expect that she just called him "cousin", but Su Mingzhe actually treated her as "cousin" and even gave her money. She was so frightened that she waved her hand and refused:
"Cousin, I don't want your money. I can work and earn money myself."

"How much money can you make from working? Is it enough for your living expenses?"

Su Mingzhe's question made Zhu Suosuo look embarrassed.

She was hired by the company in July.

Because she hadn't obtained her university diploma yet, she could only be registered as an intern. Not only was her monthly salary 20% less than that of a regular employee, but she also had no chance of receiving any bonuses or benefits.

She spends a lot of money on a daily basis, such as buying cosmetics, clothes, dating a boyfriend, etc.

After working for two or three months, she didn't make a penny, and she even borrowed a lot of money from Jiang Nansun.

Now she feels like she is being tortured by being a receptionist.

Seeing that Zhu Suosuo no longer objected, Su Mingzhe talked to Pei Bo, Bai Moli and others, picked up his coat, and took Zhu Suosuo's tender little hand back to the reception desk, asking her to take out her bank card.

Zhu Suosuo grew up in her uncle's home and had a strong ability to read people's expressions. Seeing that Su Mingzhe did not look fake, she thanked him shyly:
"Cousin Mingzhe, I will definitely pay you back for this money."

"What are you going to pay back? You don't have to pay it back."

Su Mingzhe took the bank card that Zhu Suosuo took out and entered the transfer amount - one hundred thousand.

When Zhu Suosuo received the text message reminder, she was naturally extremely excited.

However, she was able to remain calm despite her high EQ and IQ. She thanked Su Mingzhe in her most gentle and charming voice, and asked like a curious baby:

"Cousin, I heard from Nansun that you went to study in Lighthouse Country two years ago. Was this Golden Dragon Company founded by you after you arrived in Lighthouse Country?"

"This is a bit exaggerated. When I was in college, I developed a software. After I came to the Lighthouse Country, I promoted it. Unexpectedly, it was very popular in the market. Later, I sold it for 500 million yuan. That's how I founded the Golden Dragon Group."

Su Mingzhe briefly explained his path to wealth. Seeing that Zhu Suosuo was still asking questions like a curious baby, he waved his hand to stop her from speaking and said directly to her:
"We'll talk about me later. Go to the HR department now to complete your resignation procedures and go back to school as soon as possible."

"Ok."

Faced with Su Mingzhe's tough and domineering style as a CEO, Zhu Suosuo had no choice but to obey.

As for what Su Mingzhe said, "Let's talk about it later", Zhu Suosuo didn't dare to hope for it.

After leaving Jinlong Group, she had no idea whether she and Su Mingzhe would ever have any intersection again.

Fortunately, Zhu Suosuo has been very smart since she was a child, and she quickly thought of a solution. A few minutes later, Zhu Suosuo came to the Human Resources Department, and instead of going to the Human Resources Specialist to handle the resignation procedures, she came to the Human Resources Manager and said with a smile:
"Manager Nie, my family is very angry when they heard that I came to the company as an intern. They insisted that I go back to school. Can you please help me go through the 'suspension of pay' procedure?"

"Zhu Suosuo, what did you say?"

Human Resources Manager Nie Xingchen's eyes widened with a look of astonishment:
"Did I hear you correctly? You want to apply for 'leave of absence without pay'? Do you think you are a civil servant?"

In the 1980s and 1990s, in order to reduce the number of bloated government employees, the government encouraged everyone to go into business and invented the "suspension of pay with retention" benefit.

Now, Zhu Suosuo is an intern, and her job is just a receptionist in the leisure and entertainment area, but she actually asked for "unpaid leave".

Nie Xingchen came to his senses and was immediately amused.

When Zhu Suosuo saw Nie Xingchen laughing, she was not embarrassed or angry, but instead acted innocent and said helplessly:

"I'm sorry, Manager Nie, it really is 'suspension without pay'. If you don't believe me, you can call Ms. Deng. She knows about this."

Ms. Deng is Deng Xinxin, who is in charge of the company’s personnel, salary, welfare and other departments.

When Nie Xingchen heard Zhu Suosuo asking him to find Deng Xinxin to verify, his beautiful eyes immediately flickered, and the smile on his face also faded. He turned serious and said:

"Then please sit down and wait. I'll call President Deng to verify this. After all, our company has never processed the 'suspension of employment with pay' procedure for anyone."

Nie Xingchen is very calm when doing things. After seeing Zhu Suosuo's calm and composed expression, he felt that there was a story behind it.

The call came through quickly.

"Boss Deng, I'm Xiao Nie from the Human Resources Department... It's like this, Zhu Suosuo from the Leisure and Entertainment Area just came to the Human Resources Department and said she wanted to go through the 'suspension of employment with pay' procedure, and she also asked if you know... to do it for her?... Oh, okay, I understand."

Nie Xingchen hung up the phone and looked at Zhu Suosuo, who was sitting in the lounge playing with her phone, with a strange look. He was silent for a few seconds before calling her over:

"Zhu Suosuo, please sign it."

"Manager Nie, can the formalities be completed?"

Zhu Suosuo was a bit unreasonable, and when she saw Nie Xingchen giving in, she immediately put on an arrogant attitude.

Nie Xingchen had just heard from Deng Xinxin that Zhu Suosuo was the big boss's cousin.

So, at this time, even if Zhu Suosuo glared at her, she would not get angry. Instead, after calming down, she calmly printed out a few leave requests and asked Zhu Suosuo to sign:
"Zhu Suosuo, although President Deng agreed to process your 'leave of absence', there is no such option in our OA system, so we can only process it by asking for leave in our HR department. And the maximum leave for company employees is one month at a time, so just sign as many leave slips as you want for the 'leave of absence of absence' you want."

"I will be back to work after the New Year. It's October now, and I will be back in March after the New Year, so that's five months... five signatures, right?"

Zhu Suosuo got down to business and returned to her serious appearance.

Nie Xingchen waited for her to sign, then took out a piece of white paper and handed it to Zhu Suosuo, saying:
"Please write down your OA account and password. I will find someone to process your leave application on time."

"That's not necessary. I will come to the company and do the work myself."

Zhu Suosuo has a nice idea.

She did not go through the resignation procedure, but instead went through the "leave of absence without pay" procedure. In this way, the Human Resources Department could not take away her work badge, and she could report to the company at any time.

Secondly, because she did not resign, when the school starts allowing senior students to intern in the company next year, she will not have to interview again and can directly come to Jinlong Group to continue working.

Thirdly, when she comes to the company to complete her work every month, she might bump into her "cousin" and have a chat with him.

Zhu Suosuo came up with a plan to kill three birds with one stone.

"Okay then, you can now enter the leave workflow and leave."

Nie Xingchen collected all the leave requests signed by Zhu Suosuo, and then signaled Zhu Suosuo that she could go through the leave workflow and leave the company.

"Goodbye, Manager Nie."

Zhu Suosuo is just a woman who loves to have fun. She is not a bad person. When she saw that Nie Xingchen had completed the formalities for her, she immediately left with a smile and said hello.

After leaving the company, I looked at the time and it was already noon.

Zhu Suosuo remembered something and quickly took out her cell phone and called her best friend:
"Hey, Nansun, where are you now? ... Going to the cafeteria to eat? ... Don't go to the cafeteria, go back to the dormitory first and wait for me. I'll be there soon. I'll treat you to a big meal later!"

"Have you received your salary? Well, I'll wait for you in the dormitory."

Jiang Nansun, who had just finished school, watched her best friend hang up the phone, and then rejected the male classmate who invited her to have lunch together:
"Excuse me, Zhang, my friend asked me to have dinner with him..."
