Capítulo 47: The Second Invitation
Editor: Atlas Studios
Sheng Lin shook his head. "Next Wednesday is Madam's birthday!"
Mu Chuqing's eyebrows suddenly frowned. Ye Yun's birthday banquet?
Invited her?
"Uncle Sheng, does Madam know about this?"
Sheng Lin smiled at her, not answering her question.
"Miss Mu, it's just that Old Master wishes to see you!"
Mu Chuqing's eyebrows relaxed. She reached out and accepted the invitation.
Sheng Lin retracted his hands. "Both of you, please make sure to be there! I'll be making a move first."
Mu Chuqing originally wasn't planning to go. Back then, Ye Yun hated her so much that she just couldn't wait to trash her to the ground, so why would she still go there and suffer from so much anger.
As for Sheng Zhengyu, she could meet him privately, and that would be alright.
However, all this was forced by Chang Chu!
Mu Chuqing will never forgive Chang Chu in this life!
A piece of unfamiliar music suddenly rang out. Mu Chuqing's eyes squinted. She used a tissue to wipe her hands, and hurriedly ran to her desk to pick up the phone.
The mobile phone was an ordinary old-school type cell phone with buttons. They don't even know what brand it is. Mu Chuqing had just spent 200 RMB for it.
She hurriedly picked up the phone. "Hello!"
"This is Miss. Sunny, right?!" An unfamiliar male voice called from the other end, and Mu Chuqing's pupils constricted a little.
"Yes, I am!"
The other party greeted back, then spoke to Mu Chuqing for a while. Mu Chuqing's eyes narrowed, as she nodded, a cold sneer crept up the corner of her lips.
"Alright, I've got it. I'll immediately transfer the remaining amount to you!"
"Thank you!"
Mu Chuqing hung up the phone. She took out the SIM card inside, broke it into two pieces, and threw it into the rubbish bin.
What a pity…
Mu Chuqing shook her head, feeling resigned.
"Knock knock!" Mu Chuqing came back to her sense when she heard the knock on the door and went to open the door.
The young secretary stood at her door, trembling nervously. "CEO Mu, the 'Mirage' project team, is urging you to head to the meeting!"
"Alright!" Mu Chuqing replied. She exhaled slowly and left the office empty-handed.
In the meeting room, Mu Chuqing opened the door. Everyone stared at her with a bit of a surprise. It was mostly because of the rumor going around in the company, and partly because of Mu Chuqing's work attitude.
She actually came to the meeting empty-handed!
Previously, there were still some younger colleagues who admired and respected Mu Chuqing a little. But right now, when they considered both these issues together, their positive attitude towards Mu Chuqing plummeted.
Mu Chuqing did not care about their thoughts and displeasure. She stood at the seat for the head of the meeting but did not sit down, only placing both her hands on the table for support. She then spoke in a calm tone, "Thank you for everyone's hard work. We will have to work overtime again tonight and then have a good weekend. As for me, I'm still lacking in experience, and if there is anything you aspiring and smart young people don't know, please do seek help from the senior department heads of the Planning Department. The bidding will start next Friday, let's work hard together!"
However, Department Head Gao seated at the side huffed coldly. "How many people are eyeing this project in City Fu? Not work overtime? And even have a proper 2-day weekend? CEO Mu, do you think with this standard you can win the bid just because you say so?"
Mu Chuqing straightened her body. "Department Head Gao, making employees work during the weekend is illegal!"
However, Department Head Gao just laughed. "Is it also illegal pay for overtime?"
"But I don't want to pay for overtime!"
Mu Chuqing shrugged her shoulders. Her words were vague, but everyone could tell that Mu Chuqing was intentionally going against Department Head Gao.
"You!"
As expected, Department Head Gao was stunned into silence by Mu Chuqing and could only glare at her angrily.
"Department Head Gao, please don't be too angry. I'm just considering on behalf of the company. I know how much time and energy everyone has spent on this bid. There's still another week before the bid, I'm really worried that everyone would be too fatigued and some problem might suddenly crop up during the bid. Resting adequately is the most basic necessity!"
"…"
"Alright then, there's still some time until we get off work, continue with you work everyone!"
