Ye Yongying was still confused even after getting into the taxi.
Sheng Tang is actually President Gu’s girlfriend!
President Gu personally signed her into the company!
Then why didn’t President Gu mention it to her? If she had known, she wouldn’t have...
Ye Yongying thought about how she had renewed her contract just last year, signing another eight-year contract with the company, now with six years still remaining. She felt like she was about to break down.
In the workplace, it’s not a lack of ability that scares you, but the boss not recognizing your ability.
Besides being the boss’s girlfriend, Sheng Tang also signed with Ke Fei.
Now, everyone in the company won’t think she threw Sheng Tang aside, but that Sheng Tang fired her.
This is exactly like a breakup. If you break up with a regular person, only to quickly find a high-status partner, then you clearly come out on top.
Your ex will be mocked, regardless of who broke up with whom at the time.
Now, Ye Yongying was that unfortunate person.
She glanced at that private chat group again.
Out of the fifteen people in the group, four had quietly left. This made Ye Yongying a bit nervous.
These people were really quite snobbish.
"She actually... that slut, what a schemer! First she hooked up with Xi Lingtu, now with Gu Jiahui. She’s getting more and more shameless!" Ye Yongying felt both hatred and fear.
At this moment, Sheng Tang also frowned slightly.
She hesitated for two seconds before knocking on Gu Jiahui’s office door.
Gu Jiahui had just finished a meeting and was resting, preparing to eat lunch.
Sheng Tang walked in.
"...Perfect timing, I was just about to look for you." He put on his glasses again and continued sorting through some files without looking up.
Standing by the desk, Sheng Tang cleared her throat, "Gu Jiahui, the news wasn’t leaked by me. I mean the news about you having a girlfriend..."
It wasn’t like being Gu Jiahui’s girlfriend was something to hide. Gu Jiahui had specifically signed this contract with her to make use of this relationship, rather than playing some secret romance game.
However, he had never mentioned how he planned to announce it, leaving Sheng Tang unsure.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jiahui finally looked up, "I know, I was the one who put it out."
Sheng Tang: "..."
"What’s the matter?" Gu Jiahui saw her puzzled expression but didn’t pay much attention and continued organizing the files.
Sheng Tang: "Oh, I thought you wouldn’t announce it in the company, considering the negative impact of a boss dating an employee."
"You know I’m the boss, and the boss naturally enjoys special privileges. And with that contract in hand, you can enjoy special privileges too," Gu Jiahui replied.
He placed the important documents in a drawer and then walked over, naturally taking Sheng Tang’s hand, "Let’s go eat."
He led Sheng Tang out of the office building hand-in-hand.
Many people saw them.
Some who were previously skeptical finally saw it with their own eyes and were greatly impressed with Sheng Tang’s abilities.
Until now, people in the company had never seen Gu Jiahui publicly declare a girlfriend, so they were unsure how long Sheng Tang could last.
Some were just watching the drama; others started planning to cozy up to Sheng Tang, hoping to gain an advantage in office politics.
When Sheng Tang and Gu Jiahui reached the underground parking lot, Gu Jiahui said, "There’s a dress in the trunk. Go change in the restroom. We have an important dinner to attend tonight."
He opened the trunk.
A new black cocktail dress, a new high-end luxury brand item, just the right size for Sheng Tang.
"Who are we having dinner with?" Sheng Tang asked, "It’s not just the two of us, is it?"
"It’s not that extravagant, needing you to wear formal attire just for me," Gu Jiahui said, "We’re having dinner with Ke Fei tonight. Since he wants to take you on, I have to make a gesture."
Sheng Tang: "..."
