Chapter 228 - 214 This is Just the Beginning
Gu Qili finished speaking and looked at the people, who all had smiles on their faces, becoming even more serious than before: "I hope everyone takes this as a warning. Instead of spending time gossiping about others behind their backs, it would be better to focus on your own work. Alright, meeting adjourned." Luan Yi was already unpopular among the restaurant staff, and now that she was being punished, everyone was secretly applauding, but out of respect for Qi Meihui’s authority, they only dared to be happy in their hearts.
No sooner had Qi Meihui been mentioned than she came stomping over in her high heels, looking furious – it was clear that Luan Yi must have gone to her to complain.
Everyone sensed trouble and were all worried for Gu Qili, who Qi Meihui had never liked, and probably hated intensely now.
Qi Meihui walked straight up to Gu Qili, but before she could speak, Gu Qili smiled and said, "Manager Qi, good morning."
As the saying goes, it’s hard to slap a smiling face – Qi Meihui’s intended words were halted by the smile on Gu Qili’s face, leaving her staring blankly, speechless.
One had to admit that the face in front of her was stunningly beautiful, especially when smiling – it was so captivating that even she, a fellow woman, could not help but be mesmerized.
"Manager Qi, your timing couldn’t be better, I just have something to report to you," Gu Qili said, standing straight and meticulously explaining the reason and outcome of the punishment just dealt, "It’s very clear in the employee handbook, and the responsibilities of a supervisor are also explicitly defined. Manager Qi, do you think my handling of the situation is in accordance with the restaurant’s regulations?"
Qi Meihui stared at her for three seconds, her gaze also sweeping across the waitstaff around who, although busy working, were all eavesdropping intently. Gu Qili had blocked all her possible retreats in advance, leaving her with nothing to say but agree.
However, Qi Meihui didn’t even want to say that much and strutted straight past Gu Qili toward the back office. Whether it was out of anger or not, after just two steps, she suddenly exclaimed in pain, one of her high heels twisting to the side, as her foot seemed twisted.
Gu Qili held back laughter, cursing inwardly: serves you right.
At this moment, a waiter hurried over and said, "Supervisor, President Li is looking for you."
As soon as Gu Qili left the restaurant, she saw Li Ruhai, his face so full of joy that it was almost dripping, stepping forward quickly upon seeing her, almost tearfully excited: "Miss Gu, the official notice has been sent, the General Manager and his party will be checking into our hotel in two days."
