Hello, How Long Has This Been Going On?

Xue Huacan continued to smirk, “This isn’t a lecture. Little Tao, you are too literal with your words. Technically, I’m your senior, so you shouldn’t be talking to me this way, right? CEO Guo told you just now, hasn’t he? This matter wasn’t a big one, so he wouldn’t fire you, I suppose. But still, you have to pay attention in the future…”

“Oh, speaking of it, I still have to thank Senior Xue,” Tao Zhiyue emphasised emphatically, “CEO Guo said he would give me a raise.”

Xue Huacan’s unfinished words choked in his throat as he looked at the man with a loathsome expression.

Tao Zhiyue ignored him and continued, “After talking it out with Senior Li, CEO Guo learned that my daily workload is more than twice the normal amount. Since he felt that he had treated me badly in terms of salary, he decided to double my pay henceforth.”

Xue Huacan, “…”

“I was rather embarrassed at first, but CEO Guo said that he knew there was a possibility that I wanted to change my job. The current company is already short on manpower, so if I leave, the workload of the other colleagues will increase. Therefore, I must accept this. “

Xue Huacan, “…”

Tao Zhiyue added another knife to the wound, “By the way, there will be a lot of unreleased new game demos at the game exhibition in the city next week. CEO Guo asked me to take a few days of paid leave in order to prevent me from being overworked. He said I should take time to go to the game exhibition and have a look; who knows if I might get some ideas for the company’s next project?”

In the end, Tao Zhiyue concluded his speech, portraying a smile that was not sincere in the slightest, “Anyway, thank you, Senior Xue, for meddling in someone else’s business.”

After receiving waves of blows like that, Xue Huacan could practically see the sight before him painted red. It was as if he was going to have a cerebral haemorrhage in the next second.

There were bursts of exclamations from the surrounding colleagues.

They didn’t think that they would be able to have front row seats to watch such a satisfying drama unfold without needing a movie ticket! 

After finishing speaking, Tao Zhiyue didn’t give Xue Huacan any extra glances. He sat down on his own and put on his earphones to avoid being affected by the noise pollution.

Recalling the conversation with the CEO just now, Tao Zhiyue still felt dumbfounded.

Due to Big Brother HR’s nickname, he was misunderstood as wanting to change jobs, and that in itself was outrageous enough.

What was even more unexpected was that CEO Guo, who at this point probably had a few holes in his brain, still did not give up the conjecture that Tao Zhiyue was ‘the talented young master of a rich family who ran incognito to find a project to play with’. He deeply reflected on the company’s current appearance-changing games that had potential for quick success and profit. With tears in his eyes, CEO Guo recalled his original intentions back when he first entered the game industry. There, he asked Tao Zhiyue if he wanted to attempt something that was more original, which was how the game exhibition was brought up.

Faced with CEO Guo’s expectant eyes, Tao Zhiyue could only respond affirmatively, but he couldn’t help but start to worry. If this continued, he might have to change jobs again…

Moving was very tiring, Tao Zhiyue sighed silently.

After such a commotion, Tao Zhiyue didn’t really want to work anymore. He opened the shopping software and was going to place an order to buy screen protectors for his mobile phone and computer.

When he was browsing the products, a message suddenly popped up on the PP app.

[HR: Doctor Tao, good morning! ]

[HR: I’m going to Jinbei City for a business trip next week. ]
