Chapter 304: Chapter 304 I need to… take a fever reducer (4) Chapter 304: Chapter 304 I need to… take a fever reducer (4) By half past noon, Lu Wanwan, who had filled up on a combined breakfast and lunch, had already arrived at the company.

Despite being a few hours late, it was still better than missing a whole day.

After all, she cared much about her salary, especially since she still owed Bai Lingyun over a thousand dollars.

Not only did she let the wolf into her house and get devoured completely, but she also lost over a thousand dollars and had her wages docked, which troubled her deeply.

But to argue with him, Gu Annan wasn’t really at fault!

Sleeping with the boss wasn’t a valid excuse to take leave casually. She should be upset not about Gu Annan docking her pay but about his misdeeds last night.

Right, what did he say? If she didn’t want her wages docked frequently, should she hit the gym more often?

Lu Wanwan scoffed, thinking she would never foolishly let him come to her house again.

“Xiaolu, why did you take the morning off?” Linda couldn’t help but ask after staring at Lu Wanwan for a while when she arrived.

“Sick, I said so yesterday,” she responded nonchalantly.

Sun heard and commented, “Mr. Gu didn’t come in the morning either.”

Yawning, Lu Wanwan stayed silent.

Linda spoke sarcastically, “Because Mr. Gu was ill too, right?”

“No, I heard he had business at the headquarters and went for a meeting. He’s already back,” she explained.

Linda’s expression eased slightly, then looked at Lu Wanwan again, “You and Mr. Gu both took leave yesterday, what a coincidence?”

“Yeah, what a coincidence,” Lu Wanwan, holding her mug, half-jokingly smiled. “Actually, we skipped work to go on a date.”

“Ha, you’re quite the comedian,” Linda mocked. She’d believe that Lu Wanwan was stalking the boss, but a date, she wouldn’t believe it for a second. “Mr. Gu had a fever yesterday; how could he go on a date?”

“Just a fever, he wasn’t on his deathbed, there was plenty he could still do.”

Linda gritted her teeth a bit. What was up with Lu Wanwan today, lacking all the polite and modest demeanor of the newbie she once was?

Moreover, even superficially, every time Mr. Gu was mentioned, she used to be visibly irritated, but today she even joked about it.

“Lu Wanwan, you came in today? I thought you were on leave?” Editor Liang was surprised to see her.

“…Right, Editor, can sick leave be without wage deduction?” Lu Wanwan suddenly asked.

Gu Annan’s position didn’t manage these nitty-gritty details.

“With sick leave, if you bring a doctor’s note, there’s no wage deduction,” he explained.

“Without it, there’s a deduction?” she probed.

Looking at her, the editor said, “Of course. So you don’t have wages for these two days; I thought you weren’t coming in the afternoon either.”

“Wait, Editor, that should only count as one day, I took two half days!”

The editor shook his head, “Anything beyond the allowed time counts as a full day, so your two half days count as one day. Mr. Gu has been very strict about this recently; every department must adhere strictly to the timekeeping.”

“But that’s unfair, my leave was for sickness. Coming in for half a day while ill, and still no pay?”

“You needed a doctor’s note,” the editor lamented, “These matters, only Mr. Gu can decide. Perhaps think of it as overtime.”

Lu Wanwan fell silent for a moment, then stood up with a stern face and left.

Linda said disdainfully, “Just looking for excuses to go to Mr. Gu’s office.”

“Speaking of which, back in the day, not to mention an intern, even we in this department couldn’t just waltz into his office…”

Lu Wanwan reached the executive office floor again.

“You again, got private matters with Mr. Gu this time?” The assistant saw her and didn’t know how to handle it.
