Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Solution

”Employees of Wenxin Garden who collectively took leave on June 5, 1999:

After seeing this notice, please bring your ID card and labor contract to the companyʼs finance department to settle your salary. If you have any questions, ask Manager Li Yue in Room 101 of the beauty department on the first floor.”

The employees who rushed to the company upon hearing the news of Su Yanʼs arrest first saw the notice posted at the main entrance. After watching the video in Room 101 and seeing documents signed by Luo Ye, most of them obediently went to finance to settle their accounts and left.

The video clearly recorded their promises to Su Yan, vowing to fight alongside Luo Ye to the end. Although they couldnʼt understand how these were filmed, facts were facts, and there was nothing more to be said.

Some employees, unwilling to be dismissed like this and following some foolish advice, sat at the company entrance with a piece of red cloth tied on their foreheads, not leaving and planning to go on a hunger strike.

After hearing the report from Li Yue, Luo Yeʼs lips curled up. He asked for the specific names of the people, pulled out a stack of CDs from the drawer, picked one, and handed it to Li Yue, instructing her to play it for those individuals based on their names.

Filled with doubts, Li Yue descended the stairs and swiftly returned to her office to insert a CD into the computer. She had to understand the situation before she could take any action, as President Luo was brief and to the point, and she didnʼt dare ask too many questions.

Once the video was displayed, Li Yue was thoroughly impressed with President Luo. The footage showed an employee from the beauty department named Wang Jie stuffing expensive beauty products into her bag, her eyes constantly darting around.

After doing this, she lifted the covers of the beauty bed, took off her shoes, and comfortably lay down to sleep. The entire CD was a recording of several days of Wang Jieʼs ”work.”

It ultimately showed that, apart from stealing company goods, her work time was largely occupied by snacking, chatting, and sleeping.

Li Yue switched through several CDs, which all showed a similar scene. The only differences were the departments and the methods of slacking off. Indeed, the customer volume at Wenxin Garden used to be low, and management lax, making such conditions quite common, especially among Su Yanʼs direct subordinates, who competed in laziness.

Those sitting in protest were called in one by one to watch their own ”glorious” images. Afterward, they slinked off to the finance department, and President Luoʼs mystique instantly deepened in their minds—such incidents had been filmed without anyone noticing; he was like an immortal... or a demon!

Coming out of the finance department, each of them deeply regretted their actions. They could have simply taken their salaries and left, but due to the commotion, the stolen items were deducted from their pay, and some not only failed to receive any money but ended up owing the company.

Furthermore, the finance staff mentioned that they could just disappear, as long as they werenʼt afraid of legal action—”You can run from the monastery, but not from the temple.” They were never to use their ID cards again!

And regarding financial matters, except for Yu Jia, all personnel were replaced. They couldnʼt find any backdoor dealings even if they wanted to. Is there a pill for regret in this world? Is there? Is there?

...

Around 5:40 p.m., Luo Feng came to Wenxin Garden to pick up Luo Ye. Yu Zining hurriedly greeted him: ”Hello, sir, how may I assist you today?”

”Oh, Iʼm here to pick up my sister Luo Ye. You donʼt need to bother with me!”

His handsome appearance and gentle smile accelerated Yu Ziningʼs heartbeat tremendously, and she blushed, ”You... youʼre looking for President Luo? I... Iʼll take you to him!”

”Thanks for the trouble!” Luo Feng was not good at refusing.

Yu Zining moved with small, graceful steps, a sway never seen before, stunning Wang Ai, who had known her for not just a day or two. It was the first time she had seen such a posture in Yu Zisu and couldnʼt help but snicker: ”Dreaming of being Cinderella again!”

Yu Zining, accompanied by Luo Feng, reached upstairs but found the office door of Luo Ye locked. Just when she was thinking of asking someone, Administrative Assistant Wang Yao came out from a nearby office. After understanding the situation, she warmly looked at Luo Feng: ”Mr. Luo, President Luo is in a meeting with heads of various departments. It might be a while before they return. Would you like to wait in the guest room or sit in the administrative department for a while?”

”Regarding the administration department, Yeʼer is back...” Luo Feng suddenly paused. His younger sister just happened to come out from the meeting room, dressed in black pants and a white shirt, standing tall and elegant; her cute little face looking stern, followed by several excited-looking staffers—the little lady truly commanded an imposing presence!

”President Luo is really beautiful, really cool!” Yu Zining sincerely praised.

”Agreed!” Wang Yao nodded: ”President Luo really has the aura of a boss!”

Upon seeing Luo Feng, Luo Yeʼs beautiful face blossomed like a magnolia flower: ”Brother, I called Mom and told her thereʼs a lot going on, she said itʼs fine if you come over at six, how come you came early?”

”I was worried Yeʼer might be anxious, and I had nothing else on anyway!”

”President Luo, from tomorrow on, weʼll hand over the records to President Wen every day!” The department heads following behind Luo Ye, rarely seeing such an adorable side of her, all left with a smile on their lips.

”Alright, thank you for your hard work!” Luo Ye stood stiffly to the side and smiled at Yu Zining and Wang Yao: ”Thanks to you guys too, go get ready to clock out!”

”No... no trouble, President Luo has worked harder!”

”Tha... thank you, President Luo!”

Yu Zining and Wang Yao were somewhat excited; they had not expected the usually impassive President Luo to thank them for such a small matter.

”What, got a shot at becoming a young mistress?” Seeing Yu Zining walk over with a dreamy smile, Wang Ai teased her, circling around her a few times.

”Get out!” Yu Zining pushed her away playfully and then mysteriously beckoned with her hand, lowering her voice: ”Iʼve realized, President Luo is the ideal boss indeed—beautiful, decisive, clear in reward and punishment, I like her!”

Wang Ai, a bit jealous, retorted: ”Pfft, whatʼs your liking got to do with it, did she praise you?”

”Itʼs not that...” Yu Zining explained the situation, and after listening, Wang Ai fell silent for a moment then nodded: ”Focusing on the details is how you discern someoneʼs true character. Iʼve decided to stick with this company; who knows, maybe one day I could also get promoted to a management position!”

”Yeah, letʼs strive together!” Their delicate hands tightly clasped together.

...

”Dad, Mom, Yeʼer really has the demeanor of a boss. When I was there...” After finishing dinner, Luo Feng excitedly recounted everything he saw at Wenxin Garden, his voice loud enough that even his dad dared not interrupt him.

Listening to him, Luo Zhenggang looked approvingly at his daughter: ”Not bad, I didnʼt expect assigning it to you was the right choice. But, Yeʼer, can you help dad understand, how did you manage all this?”

”This...” Luo Ye laughed it off: ”Although Iʼve never been to Momʼs company before, I was familiar with most of the staffʼs names and personalities. Analyze that, and naturally, youʼll have a judgment, and it wonʼt seem strange, right? Ha!”

She suddenly realized, she had breezed over the solution but hadnʼt thought about how to explain it to dad—who was not as easy to hoodwink as Mom.
