Now that this matter had been spoken out, it was inevitable that she would either be fired or assigned to the lowest level. Susan had already prepared herself mentally for this.
Since things had come to this, being timid and backing down was not the solution.
It was better to speak out all her true feelings openly, so as not to regret it later for failing to do so.
"I'm Danni's personal assistant. I know her thoughts better than anyone else. President Su, Danni likes you, really, really likes you!"
Su Minghan was completely stunned on the spot.
The anger that had been clogging his heart just now was like being hit by a freezing spell. It was stuck in his chest, making it hard for him to breathe.
Susan burst into tears. "She knows that there has always been Teacher Xiao in your heart, so she has been silently doing what she can, helping you out of trouble and making connections for you!"
"She knows your thoughts, knows that you can't let go of Teacher Xiao, so she has always suppressed her feelings and dared not show them openly. It was Danni who asked me to call Teacher Xiao about going to Juanyi to measure the dress size!"
"And that day when it was raining heavily, it was also Danni who rushed to finish the photo - shoot and then drove here in a hurry to find you. We saw clearly the picture of you and Teacher Xiao embracing in the rain!"
Su Minghan's mood was in turmoil.
It turned out that there were so many things behind his back that he didn't know about.
That carefree woman with a domineering personality who even talked back to him had actually done so many heart - wrenching things.
But he, the person involved, had completely failed to notice her feelings.
From the very beginning when she returned from abroad to now when she was lying in bed sick, one memory after another emerged in his mind.
Susan wiped away her tears. She had finally vented all the words that had been pent up in her heart. "Danni didn't dare to say it, so I said it for her."
"I'm not saying these things to force you to be with Danni and leave Teacher Xiao. I just want you to know that there's a silly woman who likes you very much and has always been supporting you in the back, not letting you be embarrassed."
"So, please don't let down Danni's trust and help. Don't scold her for being a rash artist who acts on her own and is hard to manage. Women are lost in love."
"I've finished my words. You can fire me now."
Su Minghan stared blankly at the sobbing Susan. "Why should I fire you?"
"You're not going to fire me? I just said so many words that were insubordinate. I talked back to you and lectured you."
He composed himself, pursed his lips and let out a breath.
"It's okay. Without your words, I might really have found her and given her a lesson. You're right. It's my problem."
"I can't make a decision about my feelings for the time being. I'm also very grateful that she can take a fancy to someone like me. I'm very relieved that you're such an assistant by her side. I hope you can keep it up."
Su Minghan smiled faintly. "I'll always remember what happened today. I'm also trying to be a competent leader. Please thank Danni for me. As for your punishment, go to the finance department to get this month's bonus."
With that, he walked into the company gate gracefully.
Susan's eyes were red and swollen. She stood there like a statue.
"Wh - what's going on?"
Was this a blessing in disguise for her? Not only was she not fired, but she also got an extra bonus. Was there such a good thing in the world!
"Oh my god, it seems that I have to 'discuss' with President Su more often."
Susan covered her mouth and snickered playfully.
The gloomy clouds in her heart had cleared, and she felt extremely comfortable.
This was the best way to handle the situation that she could strive for Danni.
She hoped that Danni wouldn't blame her.
A few days passed in a flash.
Since Yang Wan returned to the apartment, her life had become more and more comfortable.
Shen Yuliang also accompanied her to various occasions. They either played cards and drank alcohol or smoked and had a good time. Their days were as comfortable as they could be.
"Hey, Old Shen, I didn't expect your company to be running so well now! When we have a chance someday, our brothers should have a good chat about business."
General Manager Wang, who was playing mahjong with him, smiled obsequiously.
"Um, um, we'll have time. We'll discuss it when we're free."
Shen Yuliang responded on the surface, but actually he was a bit shaken inside.
Shen's Construction was founded and run by himself. Now he only had the title of president, but no real power.
But then he thought about it. As long as he was happy, that was enough.
Someone would give him money, and he could do whatever he wanted.
"Mr. Shen, could you please settle the bill?"
The waiter came over with a QR code, smiling.
"Settle what bill? Are you going to kick me out before I even finish playing mahjong?"
Shen Yuliang raised his voice, full of displeasure.
"No, no, no. You misunderstood. It's your wife."
The waiter pointed to the group of laughing women at the next table. "Your wife said she wanted to change the venue, so... How would you like to pay?"
"What a nuisance! Give it here. I'll scan the code."
He took out his phone muttering and paid the money.
Looking at the remaining balance in the text message, Shen Yuliang clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
There was only 50,000 yuan left. It could barely last until the end of the month.
It seemed that he had to ask for some money.
He got up, propping his hands on the table, and coughed. "Oh, I'm getting old. My back hurts. You guys play first. I'll go to the toilet and come back."
General Manager Wang and the others nodded.
"Go ahead. Hurry back."
After he left, they immediately got their heads together and started gossiping.
"Hey, where do you think Old Shen gets so much money?"
"I bet he's hooked up with the eldest young master of the Bo family! I saw him go to the bank to withdraw money a few days ago. He took a whole bag of it!"
"Really? So, does that mean the young master gives him money?"
"Sure. If he really had money himself, he would have bought the villa back long ago."
Yang Wan heard a few words of gossiping and walked over angrily, wiggling her hips.
"What are you guys talking nonsense about?"
General Manager Wang smiled awkwardly. "Hey, we're discussing the skills."
"Discussing skills? I think you guys are discussing how to cheat my Yuliang out of his money! You're all old people, but you have no shame!"
"You? Who are you calling shameless!"
Before they knew it, the two of them started scolding each other, neither willing to give in.
When Shen Yuliang came back, the scene was already in complete chaos.
"What's going on? Stop scolding!"
Yang Wan grabbed his arm, her face red with anger. "Yuliang, you're finally back. Let me tell you, this old bastard was just calculating how to make you lose at mahjong! He didn't even want to listen when I said a few words to him!"
"Spitting lies! When did we say that?" General Manager Wang was so angry that his lips turned purple and he was breathing heavily.
"Come on, come on. Calm down. It's not a big deal."
Shen Yuliang tried to persuade them, sweating. "Take a step back and be harmonious."
"Humph! Let's go. Let's change the venue right away!"
Yang Wan pouted and called her old sisters together. Then she left angrily in big steps, not willing to stay for a single second longer.
"Look at her! Look at her!"
General Manager Wang grabbed Shen Yuliang and shouted angrily.
"Come on, come on. Why are you arguing with a woman?"
