Chapter 16 – The Bottomline Continues to Drop (3)

It actually wasn’t a big deal if Yan Shuyu didn’t want to work the night shift, she should just switch with her other colleagues and rolled off her responsibilities with the big boss. Except that Manager Xu was the Human Resource manager, not the Guest Service manager, so it wasn’t appropriate for her to make that suggestion. Plus, she was a mother herself, so she thought she could relate to how worried Yan Shuyu was of her child. So after some hesitation, she said, “Well, I can approve it if you insist on resigning, but without going through the proper process, we will deduct a part of your salary, are you okay with that?”

Yan Shuyu had forgotten all about that till Manager Xu brought it up, the original owner hadn’t received her pay for this current month yet – Hotel Dorsett asked for high qualifications, so their pay was also significantly higher than that of their peers. It is now the end of the month, and the original owner had just become a full time permanent employee this month. Her base pay was already $5,800; throwing in all sorts of supplements for meals and housing and also bonuses and overtime for taking care of the big boss, it might come up to be $7,000 – $8,000.

She’s rich!! Yan Shuyu did some calculations quickly and was super happy with the outcome. But she immediately remembered what Manager Xu had just said, “Manager Xu, how much will you be deducting from my pay?

“Fifty percent per our policy.”

“Fif…. Fifty percent?” Yan Shuyu felt that she was having a hard time breathing.

Manager Xu smiled and said, “That’s why I suggested for you to take some time off first, then put in your resignation properly after you have returned.”

The money-loving Yan Shuyu had to struggle for quite a bit but the rational side of her finally won out. From what Manager Xu had said, she needed to give one-month’s notice; meaning that she’d be parading in front of the male lead’s father for another month – she was trying to avoid the big boss as much as possible in order to avoid her fate as a cannon fodder. She didn’t think that half a month’s salary was worth the risk.

Finally, and painfully, Yan Shuyu made up her mind, “I think I should just quit right now. Thank you, Manager Xu.”

“No problem.”

“Would I still need to inform Manager Chen from my end?”

Manager Xu said kindly, “I am about to go into a meeting with her. I’ll just let her know. You go take care of your kid.”

Yan Shuyu felt much better now. Human Resource Department might be far away and had no idea what happened last night, but her immediate supervisor probably had a pretty good idea. She was happy she could avoid the embarrassment of interacting with her again. She thanked Manager Xu genuinely and asked immediately, “Oh right, Manager Xu, when will I get paid?”

“Same as everyone else. Accounting department would deposit it on the 15th.”

Just two more weeks to go. She had accepted to take a 50% cut, what’s another few days on top of that? Happily, Yan Shuyu ended her conversation with Manager Xu.

The first day after her transmigration and she had run into all sorts of obstacles everywhere she went. Now she had finally completely the big project of resigning from her job, she felt that she has finally recovered some of her self-confident and was about to start her new life full of confidence.

Naturally, Yan Shuyu, the one who had just regained her self-confidence, gave no thought to CEO Zhou. At this time of the day, he would normally be found either at his office or the conference room at the headquarters leading a meeting was. But today, he hadn’t even left the hotel room yet and was still undressed except for a bathrobe – the one that Yan Shuyu had clawed off the night before. The bathrobe was hanging loosely on his body while he sat sluggishly on the couch with his laptop.

Two of Zhou Qinghe’s elites employees were standing behind him. They stood there expressionlessly and looking straight ahead, but were secretly dissing their boss to themselves. Their boss was watching the security tape for the fifth time. What was so special about this security tape that was worth their boss, who’d control the ups and downs of upward of millions of dollars, to slack on his work and watch repeatedly?
