Chapter 515 - I Thought It Would Be Full of Pleasant Surprises, Yet in the End, It Became Nothing but Disappointment (2/2)
“Thank you.” Luosang smiled. Before New Year’s Eve, she had finally sensed a trace of warmth.
…
Without Luosang, Nian Junting seemed to have lost his soul. Before attending his company’s award party that night, he even got the b.u.t.tons of his suit wrong.
While driving to the hotel, Lu Kang said to Nian Junting in a deep voice, “We’re going to give the Year’s Best Employee award to Fu Xuecheng from the Investment Department, with a bonus of $600,000.”
“Six hundred thousand?” Nian Junting sneered. “Is your brain damaged? Why are you awarding an employee so much money?”
Lu Kang wanted to cry but failed to shed any tears. “You said that this year is special, because you’re no longer single, and that all the bonuses would be doubled.”
“It’s special, indeed. I had a girlfriend earlier this year, and now, at the last two days of this year, I actually am about to become single again.” Nian Junting glared at Lu Kang. “I am so unhappy, but you’re still thinking about the double bonus. Wake up! The bonus will remain the same as before.”
The corners of Lu Kang’s mouth twitched. “But I have released the news about double bonus already,” he said. “The employees will feel miserable because you suddenly changed your mind.”
“Is that right? You thought it would be full of delightful surprises, yet in the end, it became nothing but disappointment, like what I’m feeling right now,” said Nian Junting coldly.
Lu Kang couldn’t think of a word to say. At the awards party, employees’ cries could be heard from every corner. Manager Zhao found Xiao Si and said bitterly, “Mr. Xiao, didn’t people say that our bonus would be doubled this year? I have happily promised my wife a trip to Europe for shopping this New Year. I’ve even booked the air tickets and hotel.”
Xiao Si patted him on his shoulder with pity and said, “You need to understand that Mr. Nian’s girlfriend has run away.”
“Did G.o.d send Mr. Nian’s girlfriend to bring us pain?” Manager Zhao was even going to cry. “Next year, I’ll lead the whole staff to kneel before her and beg her not to leave.”
Xiao Si didn’t know what to say.
When the party was about to end, Nian Junting got a call from Sister Lan. “Young Master, come back soon please. Your parents are fighting here.”
