After going bankrupt, the school beauty I was dating became my boss.

Su Yanxi and Gu Yannian returned to the ward together. Shen Shi'an had already woken up, and Zhao Xu was talking to him.

Upon seeing Su Yanxi and Gu Yannian arrive together, a hint of displeasure flashed in Shen Shi'an's eyes, but he did not show it on his face at all: "Xiaoxi."

"Senior."

Su Yanxi leaned closer and asked with concern, "Are you alright? Does your wound still hurt?"

"It still hurts a little, but it's okay, I can bear it."

Shen Shi'an smiled at Su Yanxi, but because of excessive blood loss, his face was pale, making the smile appear even weaker.

Seeing Shen Shi'an like this, Su Yanxi became even more worried.

Standing at the foot of the hospital bed, Gu Yannian saw Su Yanxi's worried expression, stepped forward and thanked her, "Shen Shi'an, thank you for this."

"You're welcome. I would have saved anyone else too."

Faced with Gu Yannian's thanks, Shen Shi'an became much colder: "By the way, what about Li Xiang? How is he?"

"He has been arrested, and the legal department will handle the follow-up matters."

"Did he say anything?"

Shen Shi asked the question as if it were unintentional.

Gu Yannian shook her head: "When he was arrested, he kept shouting that he wanted to kill me, but he didn't say anything else."

"Oh."

Hearing Gu Yannian's words, Shen Shi'an felt a little relieved: "This incident was truly an undeserved disaster. In the future, we should be more cautious about the retention of employees. We shouldn't push them to the brink!"

In the past, Gu Yannian would have definitely retorted to Shen Shi'an's lecture. But now, Shen Shi'an was injured while saving him, and if he were to argue back now, it would seem like he was ungrateful.

Therefore, Gu Yannian nodded and agreed in a good manner.

Su Yanxi is not going to the company today; she will stay and take care of Shen Shi'an.

Gu Yannian knew that Shen Shi'an didn't really want to see her either, so she left with Zhao Xu.

As they left the hospital, Zhao Xu glanced at the bandage on Gu Yannian's hand and asked, "President Gu, shall I take you to the company?"

"No need, this minor injury won't affect my driving."

"Then I'll go first."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

After saying goodbye to Zhao Xu, Gu Yannian returned to Tianyi on her own.

As expected, as soon as Gu Yannian stepped into the building, people from other companies in the same building who recognized him all stared at him, and some even gathered in twos and threes, whispering among themselves.

For the first time, Gu Yannian truly understood what it meant for good news to travel slowly while bad news travels fast.

Arrived at Tianyi.

As soon as Gu Yannian stepped out of the elevator, she heard arguing coming from the office area. Gu Yannian paused, turned around, and walked towards the office area.

The people arguing were Wang Jiaojiao and a young girl at the front desk.

The young woman was delivering a package to the office area when she started gossiping with her colleagues about Shen Shi'an and Gu Yannian.

As luck would have it, Wang Jiaojiao, who had just come out of the personnel department, overheard these words.

Wang Jiaojiao was already unhappy with these rumors, and what this girl said now was undoubtedly hitting Wang Jiaojiao where it hurt.

Wang Jiaojiao, who usually presents herself as gentle and generous in public, now frowned and scolded the little girl sternly.

The young woman was not convinced and retorted, and the two started arguing in the office area.

Cui Xiu'e pulled Wang Jiaojiao, and Zhang Xiao pulled the little girl, trying to separate the two. But the two were both arguing so fiercely that neither was willing to give in, while the others were engrossed in watching the spectacle and no one noticed Gu Yannian walking in.

Gu Yannian stood at the door and listened quietly for a while. Seeing that Wang Jiaojiao and the little girl were hurling increasingly offensive insults, Gu Yannian slammed her bag heavily onto the cabinet in the office area.

The loud noise interrupted the argument between the two, and the employees who were watching the commotion all sat back down when they saw Gu Yannian.

Wang Jiaojiao and the little girl finally stopped talking, but they still stared at each other with flushed faces, like two fighting roosters, ready to fight again at any time.

"What's all the noise about? This is a company, not a market. What will it look like if our clients see this?"

Gu Yannian said coldly, "Wang Jiaojiao and Xu Xiaohong, each of you will have one month's performance bonus deducted."

Hearing Gu Yannian's words, Wang Jiaojiao didn't care; she wasn't short of a month's performance bonus. But Xu Xiaohong was different. She was just an ordinary worker, and losing a month's performance bonus was undoubtedly a major blow to her.

Xu Xiaohong's eyes reddened, and she began to sob.

Seeing Xu Xiaohong sobbing, Wang Jiaojiao said irritably, "You still have the nerve to cry? Who told you to talk nonsense here? You deserve it!"

"you……"

"enough!"

Just as Wang Jiaojiao and Xu Xiaohong were about to start arguing again, Gu Yannian spoke up in time to interrupt them.

He originally didn't intend to explain what happened this morning, but if he didn't give an explanation, he was afraid that similar things would happen again and again.

Gu Yannian walked into the office area, glanced around at everyone, and said, "You've all probably heard about the attack on me and President Shen this morning. I know you're all eager to know the details."

Actually, I didn't want to talk about this, because the person who attacked me and Mr. Shen was a colleague you used to work with every day. But the rumors kept spreading, which is a big problem for both Mr. Shen and me.

Here, I will only say this once, and only once. I did not abandon Mr. Shen to face the threat alone. No one wanted to see Mr. Shen get hurt. Secondly, the one at fault is neither Mr. Shen nor me. Don't try to apply the victim-blaming theory to me.

You all know very well why Li Xiang left in the first place. He has only himself to blame for his current situation, and he has no one else to blame but himself.

Okay, that's all for now. If I ever hear anyone arguing about this again, no matter who it is, they'll have three months' performance bonus deducted!

Gu Yannian's words were righteous and indignant, and no one dared to refute them. Even Xu Xiaohong, who was sobbing, stopped crying and listened quietly.

Seeing that no one had offered any opinions, Gu Yannian said nothing more, picked up her bag, and turned to leave. Before leaving, Gu Yannian called Wang Jiaojiao away as well.

Wang Jiaojiao snorted at Xu Xiaohong, then straightened her back and followed Gu Yannian's steps.

Once inside the office, Wang Jiaojiao couldn't help but start muttering, "Brother Yan Nian, if you ask me, you should deduct three months' worth of Xu Xiaohong's performance bonus. One month is too little!"

"Their situation is not as good as yours; a month is already more than enough for them."

Gu Yannian said, "Jiaojiao, you can't do this again, do you hear me?"

"I heard you, I was just speaking up for you, why are you blaming me?" Wang Jiaojiao said, looking aggrieved.

Gu Yannian didn't want to say anything more and waved for Wang Jiaojiao to leave.
