The outcome for employees who don't give face to their bosses is generally not very good. Clearly, Su Qing committed a taboo on the first day at work.

At this moment, he's being sent by Boss Shen to clean up the leftovers they just left behind.

Meanwhile, Shen Yi is sitting on the sofa, petting the dog, and watching Su Qing busy himself with a look of great contentment on her face.

"All done, shall we go?" Su Qing, now holding two trash bags, turned around and asked Aunt Shen on the sofa.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi looked up and saw his sulky face, which amused her, and she said:

"What's up? When I ask you to work overtime, you sit around, yet as the boss, I have to work personally, and I even provide meals. Where else can you find a boss like me? Why the long face?"

In response, Su Qing rolled his eyes and said, "Let's get this straight, if it's overtime, there should be overtime pay."

"You're not even my employee, what overtime pay are you asking for? Got the wrong person, didn't you?" Shen Yi said suppressing a laugh.

Hearing this, Su Qing had a look of disbelief on his face. Was Aunt Shen, this wealthy lady, trying to renege?

"Then what about Big Yellow's overtime pay?"

"Big Yellow didn't work overtime, why should there be overtime pay?" Shen Yi retorted.

Su Qing: ???

"But it also stayed, doesn't that count as overtime?"

"Big Yellow stayed because of you. If there's any overtime pay, it should be you giving it to him, what's it got to do with me?" Shen Yi continued her verbal onslaught.

Suddenly, Su Qing felt his head buzzing, and this scenario seemed familiar. A comedy sketch flashed in his mind.

"Haven't paid yet."

"Pay what?"

"Soup noodle money."

"I exchanged fried noodles for the soup noodles, why pay?"

"But you didn't pay for the fried noodles either?"

"I didn't eat the fried noodles, why pay?"

Isn't this just like the workplace version of the sketch "Eating Noodles"?

Is there any justice left? Any law? No overtime pay for working overtime? Well, many people don't get it either. Realizing this, he suddenly felt balanced.

Seeing his utterly defeated expression, Shen Yi burst into laughter and said, "Alright, we're acquaintances, talking about money hurts feelings. At worst, I'll treat you to a few more meals. If you don't stay, work would be so dull for me, right?"

In response, Su Qing took a deep breath and said, "Sure enough, all bosses are the same, always skinning others."

"Alright, stop complaining, let's go, Shen the Skins is personally escorting you!"

At eight in the evening, the two of them, along with a dog, leisurely strolled out of the company.

Although the fourth floor was already dark, outside it was still brightly lit. After all, Shen Yi's company was only established half a year ago, and there wasn't much business yet, so overtime wasn't common, and working hours weren't long. Nine to five was the norm, and they were still in the accumulation phase.

Meanwhile, other companies in the building, many had been established for years. Without mentioning their size, surviving among numerous competitors in Jiangcheng City definitely involved the word "competition".

Long hours, 996, and 007 are not unusual. Nowadays, many young people are thankful when they find a company that doesn't require overtime and observes regular holidays.

In the car, Su Qing was focused on driving in the front seat. This Mercedes, freshly acquired, was once again in his hands.

Shen Yi was relaxed in the passenger seat, while Big Yellow... was honestly lying in the back.

As for Deng Jie, Shen Yi's assistant, she had long clocked out and sensibly didn't tag along. Being able to become the boss's confidant, she definitely knew how to read between the lines. The boss recharges, employees retreat, and she never plays third wheel.

"By the way, I heard you lost your temper in the office today?" Su Qing asked while driving, breaking the silence in the car.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Shen Yi took off her shoes, adjusted the seat back, and half-lay down, her figure accentuated. Hearing this, she stretched languidly and replied with some surprise, "The news travels fast, huh? You know about that?"

"Just heard."

To this, Shen Yi didn't ask further and replied, "It's not really losing temper. There are bound to be slip-ups in the company's operations. Recently, there's been an issue in the business department, and other departments have gotten involved. It's a small problem, just needs some knocking into shape. If knocking doesn't work, then it'll be cut off. Anyway, the shareholders in our company aren't that complicated, so there's not much to worry about."

To these matters, Su Qing listened, confused, not understanding the complex ins and outs as he was just an ordinary guy with little experience in working or running a company.

"Don't get too stressed. You can't earn all the money in the world, and stress harms health. You're rich enough, don't let small things upset you so much," Su Qing comforted.

After all, in his view, health is the real asset. Money, although nice to have more, should be based on personal happiness. If you aren't happy, what's the point of having money?

"Oh, is my lil' bro concerned about me?" Shen Yi looked at him, her bright eyes seemed particularly enchanting.

Then she continued, "By the way, besides me, were there any other new recruits at our company today, in the business department?"

He was asking about Lao A. He'd been messaging all day without a response like the guy vanished into thin air.

Even though they arranged to meet at the company, due to Big Yellow's non-cooperation, he was late, and they hadn't met all day.

Hearing this, Shen Yi was puzzled, "HR didn't mention anything. You're the only new hire today, what's the matter?"

With this, he was bewildered and explained Wang Xing's successful interview.

"He interviewed at my company?" Shen Yi was intrigued. She had met Wang Xing twice, once by the roadside, and once in Su Qing's former apartment. She had an impression of that big guy.

"Yeah, a few days ago, we even had a meal together and talked about it."

To this, Shen Yi shook her head, "HR didn't mention it. If he wants to join, you can just tell me. I'm short-staffed here anyway."

Wu Qing chuckled awkwardly without replying. If he brought it up, wouldn't the meaning change? He then wondered what was up with Lao A now.

"Wait... you said the boss of the company he interviewed with is surnamed Shen and is in this building?" Shen Yi suddenly asked.

Su Qing nodded, "What's the matter?"

"Well... he might've gone to the wrong place. There's an advertising company on the sixth floor also run by a boss surnamed Shen."

Su Qing:...

For some reason, he had a premonition that Lao A might really have gone to the wrong place.

Soon, the two arrived at Qingshui Garden.

"Hey, where you live is really close to our company, and the environment's nice," Shen Yi knowingly said.

"It's alright, I just manage," Su Qing laughed, saying as they got out of the car.

Shen Yi laughed, "If necessary, I could move somewhere closer too. The suburbs are a bit far. By the way, do you have any available rooms? How about sharing?"

Hearing this, Su Qing suddenly felt a chill and quickly waved his hand, "No, no, I have a single room. But my landlord has plenty of properties. If you want to rent, I can recommend her to you."

With that, Su Qing hurriedly led Big Yellow towards the community.

"Why the rush? Not even inviting me up for a bit?"

Hearing this, Su Qing walked even faster.

Seeing this, Shen Yi chuckled and whispered to herself, "Wow, implementing the plan isn't easy."
