The woman’s name was Maria, and she was the oldest among the students. This level of Pilates classes wasn’t quite suitable for her physical condition.
Having one more student meant an extra percentage for her income, but acting responsibly towards her student, she still recommended a different class.
"If I change my class, wouldn’t that mean a loss for you?" Maria asked.
"It’s okay," Gan Yuan said with a smile, "Providing the best fitness advice to clients is what a coach should do, isn’t it?"
Maria smiled too, "Coach Gan, I really appreciate the way you are. Even though I might not be able to attend your classes in the future, I’m still glad to have been one of your students."
"Thank you for your recognition," Gan Yuan said with a smile, shaking her hand, "I wish you a happy life."
A young woman who had been waiting by the door immediately came over, carefully assisting Maria as she left.
Gan Yuan turned off the background music and turned around to clean up the mats on the floor when a club staff member walked in.
"Coach Gan, the manager asks that you please go to the office."
Gan Yuan put away the mats she held in her hands, casually picked up her jacket and backpack from the corner.
It seemed that she might not be able to keep her job after all.
Upon reaching the manager’s door upstairs, she raised her hand and knocked, then pushed the door and entered, to see the manager beckoning her to sit down with a smile.
"Gan Yuan, how is it going? Do you find the work environment suitable?"
"It’s very good, I really enjoy interacting with the students."
"You’ve just taught a one-hour class, you must be tired, right?"
The manager returned her smile, "Well... If I give you another task now, you wouldn’t mind, right?"
Gan Yuan was inwardly surprised but immediately expressed her willingness.
She had thought her job was in jeopardy, but the turn of events was completely unexpected.
Being new, of course, she wanted to perform well; more work meant more income from commissions, and besides, she really wasn’t tired.
"Good, there’s a VIP client waiting for you on the third floor; please go there now!"
Far from being fired, she was being asked to provide coaching for a VIP client, which took Gan Yuan by surprise.
"Just now, a client was late, and we had a bit of an unpleasantness. It’s because of our previous disagreements, and I hope it hasn’t caused any trouble for the club."
The manager smiled at her, "Don’t worry, I’m always fair and won’t just take the customer’s word for it. Gan Yuan, keep up the good work, and I will try to get you converted to a full-time coach as soon as possible."
Of course, these were just officialese.
Huangfu Jue had mentioned her as soon as he walked in the door, which meant that he was a client brought in by Gan Yuan.
Landing such a big client on her first day of work, the duty manager naturally held her in higher regard.
These days, networking is the primary productive force; black gold card clients aren’t easily won over.
Anna was just an ordinary client, and compared to a black gold VIP, the manager clearly knew which was more important and certainly wouldn’t fault Gan Yuan just based on Anna’s complaint.
