Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Mysterious BOSS Airdrop (6) Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Mysterious BOSS Airdrop (6) If it weren’t for the editor-in-chief beside her, she would have lost her composure again.

The editor-in-chief was also baffled, thinking that saying it was fine would be the end of it, but then a penalty was actually imposed.

The new boss’s mind was indeed difficult to fathom.

“To ensure everyone can work overtime in peace, the cafeteria will prepare the evening meal for employees,” Gu Annan spoke as if completely oblivious to the turmoil within these two individuals. “Additionally, my assistant took off early today, and I am in need of someone to help out. I think someone from your department would be suitable.”

The editor-in-chief glanced at the office workers who were vigorously working overtime at the sight of the boss, each portraying a state of selfless dedication.

“I just remembered I have unfinished work, I need to get back to it.”

“It’s you then.”

The editor-in-chief and Lu Wanwan spoke almost simultaneously.

Lu Wanwan: “…”

“Ms. Lu, are you dissatisfied with this arrangement?” Gu Annan’s brow furrowed slightly.

The editor-in-chief immediately shot her a warning look.

“I am just an intern who hasn’t even graduated yet and prone to making ‘basic mistakes.’ I’m even less familiar with the work on your side; I think you might need a more suitable assistant,” she explained patiently.

It was only the first day, yet wages were already being docked, and penalties were imposed–who knew what other mistakes might happen by his side.

Even though she had spoken impulsively due to a misunderstanding last time, releasing her frustration not privately but during work to trouble her.

Did she know how hard it was for her to find a job?

“These are just miscellaneous tasks that even high school students could handle. If you can’t even manage this, you don’t qualify to intern at our company,” Gu Annan spoke slowly and deliberately. “Or is there any other reason you cannot perform well?”

“No,” she said, lowering her head and speaking politely, “then I would appreciate guidance from you, Mr. Gu.”

“This doesn’t require intelligence to handle; if you can’t do it well, you’re out,” he stated.

The editor-in-chief offered a placating smile, “Let’s go with Lu Wanwan then, she’s quite intelligent. Among the recent interns, she stands out as the most decent one.”

The new boss was really a wolf in sheep’s clothing, his dismissals casually mentioned.

She felt a bit of sympathy for Lu Wanwan, a young newcomer just entering society; it was understandable that she wasn’t very smooth.

And now she faced a stern boss who demanded her withdrawal at any moment, showing no leniency at all.

Once the people left, the editor-in-chief closed the door and sighed in relief.

Linda, unable to sit still any longer, hurried forward, “Editor-in-chief, what was that all about? Why did Xiaolu go with Mr. Gu? She didn’t say she was being transferred, did she?”

“No, Mr. Gu just needed someone temporarily for errands.”

Linda, disappointed, said, “I should have said earlier, let me go.”

“You?” The editor-in-chief laughed dismissively, “Be thankful I didn’t let you go; you might’ve lost your job. Xiaolu is just unlucky, a step faster and she wouldn’t have been caught. Probably she’ll be on edge every day now, fearing dismissal.”

“She is her, and I am me,” Linda sighed, sitting back down dejectedly, “If it were me, maybe I wouldn’t have irritated Mr. Gu so easily. Sending a newcomer over, how high could the error rate be?”

The editor-in-chief thought so too; clearly, Mr. Gu wasn’t too pleased with her, wasn’t this just adding fuel to the fire?

Lu Wanwan was indeed diligent and ambitious at work; this time, she would just have to fend for herself.

In the elevator, neither of them spoke.

Lu Wanwan stood in the farthest corner, stealing a glance at him.

Regarding the misunderstanding, she convinced herself not to explain because she thought she might never see Gu Annan again.

Now, however, he had reappeared before her, and they would have to see each other every day.
