Liang Doukou looked down without saying anything, hurt by all her grievances.
Old Master Gu’s heart softened when he saw her expression. He sighed and said gently, “Xiaokou, you can tell me directly what you want to say. Why are you beating around the bush like this?”
“Grandpa,” Liang Doukou said piteously, her eyes getting red. “I’m not exactly sure, which is why I asked you to come here with me today. As you can see, she’s not capable of even serving tea. The school she’s graduating from is not the best and her grades are no better. But here she is, Yusheng’s secretary…”
“All right, all right.” Old Master Gu gently comforted her and turned to Xiaowang. “What’s her salary?”
Qin Zhi’ai’s salary was not low, and Xiaowang dared not to let him know. He quoted only half of the salary she actually made.
There’s no evidence here, but it is unusual for a college student who hasn’t even graduated yet to be Gu Yusheng’s secretary.
But the Gu Family is close to the Liang Family, and Liang Doukou has always respected me and been a loving daughter to me.
She could have married a better man, but she loves my son. Marrying Gu Yusheng was her only wish. And I will always take care of her for that. She will always treat Gu Yusheng well.
I’ve never known Liang Doukou to be petty with anyone, certainly not like Yusheng’s mother.
After meditating for a few moments, despite Qin Zhi’ai’s presence, he finally said, “Driver Wang, go to the Finance Department, have them get six months’ worth of Miss Qin’s salary, and dismiss her.”
Qin Zhi’ai pursed her lips. She had been silent the entire time and finally said, “I have nothing to do with Master Gu. I came to this company to…”
“Miss Qin, I didn’t mean that,” Old Master Gu interrupted and then looked at Xiaowang. “Driver Wang, do I need to repeat what I just said?”
Xiaowang shook his head and stood still. After a moment, he said, “Old Master Gu, Miss Qin is Master Gu’s secretary. I think we should inform him if you want to dismiss her.”
“Driver Wang, what do you mean? You want me, an old man, to go to the Finance Department in person?” Old Master Gu’s tone was not harsh but very serious.
Xiaowang lowered his head and said, “Of course not.”
“Then just do what I said!”
Xiaowang hesitated for a moment, but he did not have the courage to counter Old Master Gu. He went to his desk and dialed the manager of the Finance Department.
Shortly afterward, the finance manager rushed over and handed Xiaowang a heavy envelope.
Xiaowang didn’t hand it to Qin Zhi’ai directly but gave it to Old Master Gu.
Old Master Gu glanced at the envelop and said, “Give me a pen and a piece of paper.”
Xiaowang sighed slightly, took a pen and paper from Gu Yusheng’s desk, and handed them to Old Master Gu, who looked at Qin Zhi’ai and said, “Miss Qin, write your resignation.”
Anticipating Qin Zhi’ai was going to say something, he quickly added, “Miss Qin, you’d better resign, or I will fire you.”
