56: Chapter 56 Gu Nan Who Deserves a Beating

Zhang Shan looked completely exasperated.

"Nan Zi, if you keep spouting nonsense, do you believe I'll rip your mouth open? Let you experience what it means to face the harsh realities of the world?"

Gu Nan pretended to be scared and dodged.

"Shan Zi, let's go eat. I'm hungry."

Gu Nan said listlessly.

After eating breakfast, Gu Nan and Zhang Shan walked into the company lobby.

Gu Nan saw a beautiful Miss at the reception desk, head down, playing with her phone.

Gu Nan raised an eyebrow, preparing to tease the Miss.

"Bang, bang, bang." Gu Nan knocked on the counter.

"What are you doing, Miss? It's working hours right now; aren't you afraid of getting your pay docked?"

Gu Nan said teasingly.

The Miss at the reception was actually a fresh graduate from the Finance University.

Her grades were excellent.

However, finding a good job wasn't easy, so she found a relatively stable one.

But she didn't expect that only a few days into the job, she would be caught playing on her phone during work hours.

Her heart skipped a beat.

"I—I had something to take care of, that's why I was using my phone," Shen Lin said nervously.

"That's not right, you know. What's your name?"

"Reporting to the boss, my name is Shen Lin."

"Shen Lin, that's a nice name. Be more careful next time, and don't play on your phone during work hours!"

Gu Nan kindly reminded her.

Shen Lin's face turned slightly red.

Actually, Shen Lin worked very hard during her internship here.

She overcame many obstacles to finally become a formal employee of Aolu Company.

Although she didn't do any major work, the company provided her with the five insurances and one housing fund, as well as social security.

The salary wasn't low either.

Among fresh graduates in this country, this was probably quite good.

Moreover, Shen Lin felt that as long as she worked hard enough, one day she would enter the upper management of Aolu Company, and she was currently striving towards that goal.

But all of this changed a few days ago.

The one who changed everything was a person named Qin Peifeng.

She hadn't expected this person to be a major client of the company.

During the reception, his attitude was very poor, so she was a bit fierce with him.

She hadn't expected Qin Peifeng to be furious.

He said he would make her get out of this company.

So, for these past few days, she had been very anxious.

She was afraid that because of this, her job would be ruined.

Thinking about potentially losing this job, Shen Lin had been absent-minded at work for the past few days.

Every day she appeared preoccupied.

Although several days had passed, the company hadn't issued a notice of termination.

But she still felt very uneasy.

Although Qin Peifeng was just their client, he looked like a client who had some pull in the company.

So she was very afraid that this person would say something to her boss and get her kicked out early.

So, as soon as she arrived at the company today, she complained to a friend via WeChat.

Saying that if they had just fired her directly, she could have spent these past few days properly looking for a job.

Instead of being anxious and scared like now.

It was simply too torturous.

She didn't expect to be caught playing on her phone today as well.

She felt like her world had turned gray today.

Gu Nan looked at the guilty-looking Shen Lin and smiled with mischievous intent.

"Haha, don't worry, Miss. Working hours haven't started yet. You were just staring at your phone and didn't notice the time, right? Or were you scared by me?"

Gu Nan smiled. He finally satisfied his mischievous prank.

But he still kindly reminded her.

"However, you can't play on your phone during working hours, otherwise, your pay will be docked. It's so hard to earn money in this world."

Gu Nan shook his head and said helplessly.

"I, I... May I ask who you are?" Shen Lin asked, feeling uneasy.

"Me? I'm just a small shareholder of your company."

Gu Nan was getting addicted to teasing her.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it. I didn't mean to provoke that major client."

Upon hearing that this person was a shareholder of their company, Shen Lin became even more flustered.

However, Gu Nan was completely confused. What was going on? It seemed like they weren't on the same page.

"Miss, what are you talking about? Did you offend someone? Otherwise, why would you be so afraid of me?"

Hearing this, Shen Lin's eyes reddened.

She felt she was simply too stupid. Who sells themselves out like this?

But there was no help for it now. She had already sold herself out.

Shen Lin could only lower her head and recount what happened that day.

"Boss, I really didn't mean it. I didn't intend to get into a conflict with that client that day. It's just that the client's words were really too harsh, and I couldn't hold back for a moment, so I was fierce with him."

As she spoke, Shen Lin's eyes turned red!

"Hey, hey, Miss, don't cry, don't cry! It's fine. Him looking for trouble wasn't your fault, so you don't need to worry so much."

Hearing Gu Nan comfort her, Shen Lin felt even sadder.

"No, no, he said he was our major client. I'm afraid that because of me, we'll lose a major client."

Shen Lin wiped away her tears with her hand.

Gu Nan looked at Zhang Shan. He decided to play the good guy today.

"It's okay, don't worry about this. Just work hard, don't worry. The company will definitely not fire you. Don't be sad. However, I have one request."

"What request do you have?" Shen Lin asked cautiously.

Actually, Shen Lin thought to herself, sure enough, all crows under heaven are equally black. This man was the same as other men. They were all animals that thought with their lower bodies.

But what should she do? Agree or refuse? This was really hard!

After all, if she wanted to establish herself in this country, she either had to become someone superior or take another path.

Although this job was very tempting to her, it hadn't reached the point where she couldn't live without it. If they made excessive demands, she would definitely refuse.

Gu Nan looked at the young girl's ever-changing expression and knew that she had definitely overthought it.

"Just work hard in the future and don't be distracted at work," Gu Nan said.

"Is it just that simple?" Shen Lin was a bit surprised. She hadn't expected him to have only this one request. She thought he would make a very unreasonable demand.

"Yeah, what other request would there be? Oh my! A young girl should have a purer mind, don't always think about those random things."

Watching Shen Lin's ever-changing expression, Gu Nan was about to die of laughter. This young girl was just too funny.

Gu Nan laughed heartily and pulled Zhang Shan towards the elevator.

Shen Lin was stunned for a moment. Then she lowered her head and chuckled. Sure enough, she had overthought it!

In the elevator.

"Meddlesome," Zhang Shan complained.

"None of your business, you're the one making a fuss."

Being complained about, Gu Nan suddenly bristled.
