Chapter 475: Don’t be mad
Having already fired the disrespectful employee despite ehr incessant begging, Luna let the matter slide and did not let it ruin the rest of her day. She called Xiaoshi to her office when she got back.
"You can take a week off." She directly stated, realizing how uneasy the young woman looked in her presence. It was as though she was scared of being punished even though it was certain that she had not made any mistake.
Xiaoshi raised her lowered head and looked at Luna in surprise. Not only was she not getting punished, but she was being rewarded as well?
In the next second, she realized what must be happening and frowned slightly. "Boss, you don’t have to do this."
"It’s not for any reason other than your hard work. I noticed how fast you completed all your tasks in the past month." Luna explained as she reclined in her seat. This was why she didn’t announce Xiaoshi’s day off in the conference as she did with the other employees—she knew that they would think too much and assume that she was doing it because of the bullet that Xiaoshi had taken in her stead.
Hearing that it had nothing to do with personal matters, Xiaoshi was relieved. She was even happier to receive acknowledgment for her hard work. "I only did my duty as my employee. Thank you so much, boss."
Luna nodded and let her go back to her office.
...
In the evening, Xiaoshi dashed to Han Xichen’s condo to tell him the good news. He was not home so her eyes drooped in disappointment. However, she remembered that he was a doctor and his schedule could never be constant, so she decided to go back to her house and give him a call later.
She was just about to leave when she noticed his car entering the complex. Her lips curled into an excited smile as she waited for him to park the car before rushing over to him.
"Shishi, you could have given me a call. I would have come earlier." He pulled her into a hug, wondering whether she has waited for too long.
