Beijing and Hong Kong kiss

Chapter 19 Targeting

Lin You left the top floor holding Shi Jingyuan's clothes. After returning to the department, she remembered that her equipment inventory list was still in Mr. Shi's office.

I was so distracted by his abdominal muscles that I forgot about the important things!

Colleagues from the logistics department had not arrived yet, so she secretly put Shi Jingyuan's clothes into a black garbage bag and hid the garbage bag in the small cabinet under her workstation.

The office is so small, and if her colleagues see her taking men's clothes, she will have to explain herself.

It’s better to hide it to save trouble.

As for the inventory list...

Lin You had a bitter face, thinking about how to explain to Manager Hu.

This was the first time she failed to complete her work on time in two years since she joined the department.

As nine o'clock approached, colleagues from the department arrived at work one after another.

Manager Hu also walked into the office holding his oversized thermos cup. After a while, he posted the first notification of the day in the group.

A document forwarded by the Human Resources Department: "Notice on Standardizing the Company's Internal Leave Procedures."

When Lin You saw the title, his expression froze.

She felt uncomfortable all over and was about to ask Manager Hu for leave.

"I've heard that it's difficult to get leave in many companies. Even if you're sick, you have to provide a diagnosis certificate from a tertiary hospital before you can get leave."

"I also said that our company is very humane, and that sick leave can be taken as long as the department leader agrees."

"Sick leave is fine, but if you have to provide evidence for personal leave or marriage leave, that would be too much of a torture."

"Okay, let's take a look first."

Hearing his colleagues' discussion, Lin You's heart sank to the bottom.

It was an indisputable fact that she had offended Mr. Shi. He knew that she was sick, but he sent her such a document at this time.

It was hard not to think about it.

She opened the notification with a grim look.

"Sick leave of more than half a day requires a certificate from a tertiary hospital outpatient clinic."

She saw it, and her colleagues saw it too.

There was a sudden wailing in the office.

"Sure enough, our KSH Group was ultimately unable to escape the shackles of the secular world and became another puppet of capital exploitation."

"You've read too many novels, right? Can you open your mouth to recite literary lines?"

"No matter what, slaves, wake up! If you get paid, you have to work hard for the company!"

"The subtext of the notice is that unless you are seriously ill and about to die, don't even think about taking sick leave?"

Several young colleagues were complaining exaggeratedly right next door, but Lin You's hand holding the mouse couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Her face was pale, and the light in her eyes had almost disappeared.

Again.

These people in the upper circles can make their lives miserable with just a little manipulation.

Manager Hu heard a commotion in the outer office and came out to investigate. Suddenly he saw that Lin You looked unhappy.

He walked up to her and said, "Xiao Lin? What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to…"

He was halfway through his words when he remembered the notice the company had just sent out. He smiled bitterly and changed his words: "If you feel uncomfortable, drink more hot water. I have medicine in my office. If you need it, go get it."

Lin You pursed her lips and reluctantly thanked him.

She thought of the inventory list. "By the way, Manager Hu, I haven't finished the inventory list for the top floor equipment that you asked me to do yesterday. I can't go in when Mr. Shi is in the office. I can only wait until he is not there..."

"Yeah. No rush."

Perhaps because he saw that she was not feeling well, Manager Hu felt guilty for not approving her leave, so he was surprisingly easy to talk to on this matter.

"It's just an inventory of the equipment. This little thing certainly shouldn't interfere with the normal work of the general manager. You did the right thing."

Having solved one problem, Lin You felt relieved.

I don’t know if it’s because of the cold medicine, but she felt dazed the whole morning.

While eating in the cafeteria at noon, she felt like retching when she saw the greasy pork belly on the plate.

"You're not pregnant, are you?" Chen Lingling's first reaction when she saw this was a melodramatic plot.

Lin You weakly put down his chopsticks and glared at her, "Do you think technology has advanced to the point where a woman can get pregnant by eating a piece of pork belly?"

Chen Lingling laughed dryly. "I've watched too many idol dramas recently, so it's a bit of a conditioned reflex. That's right, there's no man around you, not even a male fly, so it's impossible for you to get pregnant."

Lin You had no appetite, so he simply didn't eat and just sat there waiting for Chen Lingling to finish eating.

Chen Lingling has a carefree personality. When she saw that she didn't move her chopsticks, she realized belatedly that her face was completely pale.

She immediately raised her hand and touched Lin You's forehead. Seeing that she didn't have a fever, she relaxed a little. "Are you sick?"

"Yeah. Just a minor cold, no fever." Lin You said softly.

Chen Lingling curled her lips, "You are sick at a really bad time. The notice was just sent this morning and you can't even take sick leave."

It's not that she got sick at the wrong time, but...

"Lingling," Lin You suddenly called out.

Chen Lingling smacked the pork belly, "Hmm?"

Lin You asked casually, "You are an HR person. Do you have any resources from other companies? Are there any... suitable for me?"

Chen Lingling was startled, looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to change jobs?"

Lin You said nothing.

Chen Lingling's attitude became serious. "Student Lin, you are not going to quit your job just because you are sick and can't take leave, right?"

"You know I'm an HR person, so listen to my advice. KSH Group's benefits are really the best in the industry, and with the support of the Shi family, the group will only get better and better in the future."

"I know all of this..."

Although Lin You has never thought about making a big career, she knows that only a stable job can give her a peaceful life.

Chen Lingling was puzzled, "Then why do you want to change jobs?"

Lin You was silent for a moment, sighed, and then looked up and said, "You forgot that I offended Mr. Shi."

Chen Lingling was not stupid. She seemed to have thought of something and asked in disbelief, "The leave notice this morning was not directed at you, was it?"

Lin You had no evidence, but he didn't believe that it was such a coincidence.

"Maybe."

Chen Lingling was suddenly speechless.

She continued to eat her meal, but suddenly she felt that the pork belly in her mouth had no taste.

After a long while, Chen Lingling finally couldn't help but speak up for her.

"It's been so long since the last incident happened, and I thought Mr. Shi was a magnanimous person who didn't care about it anymore. I didn't expect that he was just like those middle-aged fat leaders. He didn't care about it, but he found ways to make things difficult for others!"

Lin You knew that Chen Lingling had a very good impression of Shi Jingyuan and had always worshipped him as a male god.

Now that the filter is shattered, she is not only feeling unfair for herself, but also feeling resentful for past mistakes.

Seeing that Chen Lingling's reaction was even more exaggerated than her, Lin You smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have hands and feet, so I won't starve to death. If things really don't work out, I'll come to you when I have nowhere else to turn."

Chen Lingling nodded seriously, "Okay! At worst, I'll support you in the future!"

Lin You: “…”

You silly girl, you are not very old, but you think you are so high up because of your seniority?
