Chapter 308: Chapter 308: There’s Nothing Wrong with Working Hard

On the other side.

Han Jingting walked down from Yaowang Corporation building, and her first thought was to share the joy of successfully acquiring Jiaren Corporation with Chen Xuan.

However, upon reaching the ground floor, she found no trace of Chen Xuan, not even his car, which left Han Jingting quite frustrated.

Just at that moment.

"President Han, where are you headed? Let me give you a ride,"

Han Jingting turned her head and saw to her surprise that it was Xue Qin who had driven over.

Han Jingting suddenly felt a bit uneasy.

Xue Qin was the assistant to the chairman of Yaowang Corporation and also held the position of vice president, which meant she held high authority and power. Han Jingting dared not let such a person be her chauffeur.

"There’s no need, Vice President Xue, I can just take a taxi back," Han Jingting replied.

But Xue Qin had already got out of the car, "President Han, you are being too polite. You are now a part of Yaowang Corporation, and it’s only proper for me to give you a ride. Please don’t refuse," she insisted.

In fact, Chen Xuan had called Xue Qin to have her send Han Jingting back when he left, which explained why Xue Qin was there just in time.

Han Jingting had not expected that Xue Qin, being a vice president, would be so approachable, so she found it difficult to decline any further and got into the car.

"Where would you like to go, President Han?"

After thinking for a moment, Han Jingting said, "Could you take me to Jiaren Corporation? I want to take a look at the situation there first."

"Of course!"

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped downstairs of the Jiaren Corporation building.

After saying goodbye to Xue Qin, Han Jingting approached the entrance of Jiaren Corporation.

Jiaren Corporation was valued at twenty billion yuan, which on this account alone, was somewhat more impressive than Han Corporation. Even the office building seemed more imposing than that of Han Corporation.

Han Jingting had assumed that for such a large company, the security system would be very strict.

What Han Jingting did not expect was that she simply explained to the security guards that she was new to the company and was let through without any issue.

As Han Jingting roamed through the company unimpeded, all she saw was a lackadaisical work atmosphere.

Han Jingting thought to herself that there must be a reason why Jiaren Corporation had been suffering losses year after year!

With such a lazy work atmosphere, it would be truly astonishing if they managed to achieve any success!

Just then, Han Jingting overheard a familiar name.

"Yang Shan, I heard that you stayed late last night to work overtime again?"

"You’re only making a fixed salary of ten thousand yuan a month, not even half of ours, is it really worth working so hard?" teased a thirty-something, overdressed female office worker.

"Exactly, the work belongs to the company, but your body is your own. You’re still young, unmarried, and you should take better care of yourself!"

The words of the female office worker immediately won the approval of the other women in the office.

The Yang Shan they were talking about was Han Jingting’s former assistant at Han Corporation, Assistant Yang Shan.

Some time ago, Han Jingting was ousted from the company due to the fake medicine scandal.

As Han Jingting’s right-hand person in the company, Yang Shan also faced ostracism from Han Chengye and couldn’t stand it any longer, so she chose to resign and joined Jiaren Corporation.

Although Yang Shan was somewhat naive, she was always diligent and earnest at work, which was why Han Jingting always favored her.

After joining the new company, Yang Shan continued her previous work attitude, being just as conscientious, which made her the hard-working figure in everyone’s eyes.

"Thank you, Elder Sister Li, and thank you all for reminding me. My health is still good, and it’s only right to work hard!"

Yang Shan responded with a humble smile, unaware that her words would provoke laughter from the others.

"Yang Shan, do you have a problem with your brain?"

"Do you think we are praising you?"

"What..." The sudden shift in everyone’s tone caught Yang Shan off guard.

Liu Li said with profound meaning, "Yang Shan, it’s good for young people to work hard, but in the office, unity is most important."

"You rely on being young to work hard, to stay up late and work overtime, but by doing so, you make us look bad, understand?"

Yang Shan thought her colleagues, including Liu Li, were expressing their concern for her, but to her surprise, they were actually giving her a warning!

To tell the truth, Yang Shan had felt there were some issues with the atmosphere in the company from the moment she arrived.

During work hours, these people were either playing games, watching dramas, or chatting and playing cards.

Tasks that were quite simple, they managed to make exceedingly complicated and slow, basically just loafing around!

Just like yesterday, Yang Shan hadn’t wanted to work overtime either, but with work piling up and other companies’ representatives already calling, Liu Li and the others didn’t seem to care at all.

Out of no choice, Yang Shan had to stay up late and finish all the work herself to meet the deadline.

But contrary to what she expected, Liu Li and the others were not grateful at all and instead started to complain about her.

This was something Yang Shan found hard to accept.

"I’m sorry, Elder Sister Li, I never intended to make everyone uncomfortable."

"But after all, I am being paid by the company. I think, since I receive a salary, I should work hard instead of loafing around and wasting time!"

Yang Shan was merely stating the truth, but her words made Liu Li and the others feel as if they were being deliberately ridiculed.

"Look how noble you are! Only you get paid, only you work hard, right?"

"That little salary and you don’t know who you are anymore!"

"Since you love working so much, I’ll leave these reports for you to do then!"

As she said that, Liu Li slammed a thick stack of files heavily in front of Yang Shan.

"That’s right, our work too, you might as well do it all!"

"You definitely have to do it well, otherwise how can you show how excellent you are!"

The female office workers gloated at Yang Shan’s misfortune.

Yang Shan looked at the mountain of files piled in front of her and felt a surge of injustice inside her.

But she was just a newcomer, while Liu Li and the others were veterans in the company with deep connections. She did not dare to disobey.

In the end, Yang Shan didn’t say anything and just lowered her head to start working.

But Liu Li and the others still weren’t satisfied.

"Don’t be in a hurry to work now. Haven’t you seen it’s almost noon? Go and pack our lunch now!" Liu Li commanded imperiously.

"Exactly, I’m nearly starved to death! Get me a beef noodle from Tan Kee Noodle House in the west city!"

"I want the steak from that place in North City, remember, I want a medium-rare fillet, I can’t stomach it from anywhere else!"

"I want the braised pork from that restaurant in the city center!"

"..."

The female office workers chimed in one after the other with their demands.

These lunches were scattered all over the city, and just making the rounds would probably take more than two hours!

Yang Shan felt so aggrieved she wanted to cry. She had not expected that working diligently could also be wrong!

She really wanted to resign, but her educational background wasn’t very high, and if it hadn’t been for Han Jingting’s support and the experience she had accumulated at Han Corporation, she wouldn’t have been able to enter Jiaren Corporation at all.

With mortgages and car loans to pay, and elderly parents to support at home, Yang Shan didn’t dare to quit her job rashly and had to choose to swallow her grievances.

Yang Shan stood up, silently ready to go out and pack the meals.

But just at that moment, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Yang Shan, don’t go! They have hands and feet; can’t they buy their own lunch?"
