Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Mysterious BOSS Airdrop (3) Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Mysterious BOSS Airdrop (3) All afternoon, as she listened to her colleagues discussing how wonderful the new boss was, she questioned her life countless times.
“Going up to see Mr. Gu again?”
Linda came back once more, her smile sweet as if coated with honey.
The teasing continued, “Isn’t Mr. Gu busy? You girls keep finding excuses to run up to him.”
“He is busy, but he still finds a little time,” Linda replied with a sweet smile. “Mr. Gu just complimented my bracelet, saying it was pretty. He has good taste.”
“Linda, look at you, all smitten. Tell us the truth, did he just compliment your bracelet?”
Linda pursed her lips, smiled, and sat down, “I’m not telling you guys.”
Lu Wanwan stared at her computer screen, telling herself a thousand times to focus on work!
But whenever the topic involved Gu Annan, her ears perked up without her realizing it.
Every time, it made her feel frustrated.
Luckily, she didn’t speak ill of Gu Annan, or she would have been figuratively slapped in the face by this group who adored the new boss.
“Xiaolu, there’s a problem with one of your articles. Mr. Gu wants you to come up.”
Lu Wanwan was already preparing to leave work, thinking that as an intern who hadn’t graduated yet, she didn’t need to stay for overtime on their new tasks unless he was purposely making things difficult.
“Do I really have to go?” she asked hopefully, looking at the senior colleague conveying the message.
And if there was an issue with the article, it should have been the chief editor to consult, not Gu Annan; that was quite a leap.
The senior colleague cared little for her personal emotions, “Just go if you’re told to–heard it was a basic error, and Mr. Gu was very displeased.”
Linda said curiously, “Really? I made a mistake just now too, and he didn’t seem to say much.”
Lu Wanwan took a deep breath and stood up unwillingly, “I’ll go then.”
“Seeing her downcast demeanor,” the senior colleague said, contrasting sharply with the eager girls making excuses to go up. “It’s nothing much, at most you’ll get a scolding. You’ll get used to it eventually.”
She nodded, her face full of sorrow as she left.
The senior colleague wondered aloud, “On our floor, is she the only one who’s so nervous around the new boss?”
Linda laughed, “It’s with newcomers, and who knows, maybe inside she’s even more excited than us?”
Lu Wanwan went upstairs and knocked on his office door.
“Come in,” came a detached, low voice from inside.
She calmly opened the door and walked in.
The environment here was decent, but far from matching Gu’s headquarters; didn’t he feel demeaned?
She thought quietly for a moment before approaching his desk.
Unaware of what Gu Annan was typing, he didn’t even lift his eyes, so she had to speak up, “Ms. Sun told me to come and get a lecture.”
The typing stopped, and he finally looked up.
His calm, deep eyes gazed over at her.
“What basic mistake did I make?”
Gu Annan looked at her leisurely, pausing before he spoke, “Is that the attitude you use when speaking to a superior?”
“…” Everyone said he was a good person? Liar!
“Mr. Gu,” she gritted her teeth, pausing between words, “I’m very sorry for the mistake I made. I’ll go back and correct it.”
A stack of documents was thrown over; it was the draft she had submitted that afternoon.
Lu Wanwan looked at it, her mouth twitching.
Are you here to proofread or to be a CEO?
Was it necessary to call her over for a punctuation error?
“I’m sorry, I’ll correct it and send it to the editor-in-chief,” she emphasized the hierarchical relationship, indicating she was not directly under him.
