Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Rules are Rigid_1

"Uh... Chairman, what do you suggest we do?"

Manager Wang ultimately just grumbled inwardly, while respectfully addressing the chairman aloud.

"You as the HR manager are getting worse at your job."

The old lady’s voice was cold over the phone, "Didn’t you understand? Follow the company’s rules and regulations!"

"Uh..."

Manager Wang stuttered, "Chairman, if we follow the regulations, all of your grandchildren’s performance bonuses for this year will need to be deducted, and they’ll also face a fine of fifty thousand yuan..."

"And... they will need to complete the resignation procedures by the end of this month."

"What?" The old lady was taken aback. She wasn’t concerned about the performance bonuses and fines, but the dismissal was a real issue.

"You’re talking about firing them? They’ve only been late a couple of times, and you want to fire them?"

Manager Wang reported truthfully, "Chairman, since last year, Luo Xuanran and Luo Zitong have been late or left early more than three hundred times, including over twenty unexcused absences. According to company policy, employees like this are to be terminated."

More than three hundred instances of being late or leaving early, and over twenty unexcused absences?

The old lady felt darkness encroaching and nearly fainted, as she had thought they were late just a dozen times or so, not anywhere near this many.

Seeing that the Chairman remained silent on the phone for a long time, Manager Wang asked, "Chairman, are you sure you want to follow the company’s regulations?"

"Uh... well, rules and regulations are rigid, but people are flexible. Xuan Ran and Zi Tong have contributed a lot to the company in the past two years, how can we terminate them."

The old lady’s mouth twitched, and she replied, "Do this, write a notice deducting their performance bonuses, announce this criticism, and order them to pay the fines."

Damn it, just now she tells me to follow the regulations, and now she says that rules are dead.

Manager Wang’s thoughts were cursing, but outwardly he cheerfully said, "Alright."

...

"Ning’er! It’s me, Grandma."

On the other side, just as Mo Han had expected, it didn’t take five minutes before the old lady called Luo Ning.

"I’ve thought it over, and you’re right, without rules, there’s no square or circle. Xuan Ran and Zi Tong really went too far. I’ve already had Manager Wang issue a notice to deduct their performance bonuses, and also ordered them to pay the fine immediately."

Luo Ning gave Mo Han a slight smile, made an "Okay" sign with her hand, then said, "Grandma, you’re wise!"

The old lady continued, "Ning’er, you are critical to Luo Group, and no one else is fit for the General Manager position but you. You can no longer bring up resigning in the future."

"Mhmm."

Luo Ning nodded, and after some pleasantries, she hung up the phone.

Seeing Luo Ning’s joyous expression, feeling as refreshed as if bathed in the spring breeze, both Luo Xuanran and Luo Zitong felt their hearts clench.

"Ding!"

At that moment, a message popped up in the work group chat:

Upon investigation, our employees Luo Xuanran and Luo Zitong have been late, left early, or been absent without leave multiple times, seriously violating the company’s rules and regulations, and casting a very negative light on the entire company!

After review, it has been decided to deduct the full year’s performance bonuses of Luo Xuanran and Luo Zitong, and each will also be fined fifty thousand yuan.

We hope everyone takes this as a warning to abide by the company’s rules and regulations — Luo Group Architectural Design Co., Ltd. HR Department

Luo Xuanran and Luo Zitong immediately felt as embarrassed as if they had eaten fly excrement.

Before they had a chance to recover, Luo Xuanran’s father, Luo Yuantu, called.

"You little scoundrel! I told you to behave at work, and you’ve been late and leaving early. Damn it, now the whole company is publicly criticizing you, and you have to pay fines and lose your bonuses. You’ve dishonored me completely. When you get home tonight, I’m going to whip you to death!"

Luo Xuanran’s face instantly went as white as a sheet, "Dad, let me explain..."

"Explain nothing! Do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are..."

...

Mo Han had no desire to watch the pitiful sibling duo of Luo Xuanran any longer; knowing his uncle Luo Yuantu, a whipping was most likely in store upon his return.

He opened the rear car door, allowing his wife and daughter to take their seats in the back.

As soon as Luo Ning got into the car, she felt something was off.

"Mo Han, is this car really second-hand? Why does it smell like a new car?"

"Oh, that’s the seat cover, it was a gift, the scent is a bit strong."

"Mo Han, the interior of this car looks pretty new, and it feels almost as good as our previous Mercedes. Be honest with me, did you really spend sixty thousand yuan?"

"It was sixty-five thousand. The seller said the interior is made of high-grade synthetic leather; of course, it feels nice. It’s a second-hand car, after all. Who would buy it if it weren’t well-refurbished?"

"Mo Han, it feels like you’re driving quite fast, but I can’t feel any bumps from the back seat?"

"Big sis, it’s a smooth road, not mountainous terrain. I can’t make it feel like a bumper car ride, can I?"

"Mo Han, this car..."

All the way, Luo Ning asked questions, and Mo Han answered them.

Fortunately, Mo Han was quick-witted and spoke with some sense, so Luo Ning actually believed him.

"Wow, such a great car for only sixty-five thousand, what a steal!" Luo Ning exclaimed happily, "From now on, I’ll use this car to go to work."

"Sure," Mo Han agreed, teasingly adding, "But you’ll have to transfer 1700 yuan to me every month. To buy this car for you, I put all my savings into it."

"Deal, what’s 1700 yuan? I’m now the General Manager of Luo Group, with an annual salary of over seven hundred thousand!" Luo Ning said with pride, "How about this, I’ll give you 3000 yuan a month, 1700 for the car loan, and the rest will be your pocket money."

Mo Xiaochen butted in, "Mom, I want some too."

"Alright, you get 100 yuan a month, no buying candy," Luo Ning said with a slight smile, playfully touching her daughter’s nose.

"Ah?" Mo Xiaochen pouted, looking disappointed.

Seeing her daughter’s look of combined grievance and cuteness, both Mo Han and Luo Ning couldn’t help but laugh out loud, and somehow Mo Xiaochen started laughing along with them.

For a while, the car was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation, radiating contentment and joy...
