Chapter 52: Chapter 52: An Unexpected Promotion
Su Nian turned her head to check Song Yang’s seat, but he hadn’t returned yet, then glanced at the flower in Wei Lan’s hand, different from the big bouquet yesterday, today it was just a single one.
This act made Su Nian feel increasingly uneasy, just when she was about to clear things up with Song Yang, Shen Hanxiu had completely disrupted her plans.
“Sister Niannian, where did you guys go for lunch? Did the food taste different when you two ate together?” Wei Lan gossiped.
Su Nian didn’t even want to ntion the lunch, as it was disrupted by Shen Hanxiu and she did not get enough to eat.
She felt a bad premonition in her stomach and asked Wei Lan softly, “Lanlan, do you have that thing with you? I think my relative has just arrived.”
Lanlan imdiately stopped gossiping, rummaged through her bag, and handed a SpongeBob to Su Nian, “What a coincidence, my relative has been staying with for the past two days and hasn’t left yet.”
...
Su Nian smiled wryly and hurried to the restroom.
Each nstrual period ca with more or less discomfort, but today, perhaps because she had gotten a bit cold from the rain earlier, it seed worse. She thought she could endure it until the end of the workday.
Song Yang didn’t arrive until close to the start of the workday, entering the office laughing with his friend, only to be imdiately called away by the departnt head.
However, the departnt head looked joyful, as if there was good news.
Song Yang followed the departnt head into his office, “Manager, what do you need for?”
Sitting down happily, the departnt head said, “Song Yang, your performance has been good since you started here, and the higher-ups have decided to promote you.”
“Promotion?”
“Yes, they want you to be the manager at the Nanshan branch. Isn’t your hotown Nanshan? This way, you’ll be closer to ho.”
Before, Song Yang would have been thrilled about this transfer, but now…
Even though it was a promotion, if he went to Nanshan, how would he continue to see Su Nian? They had just started getting to know each other; if he left, wouldn’t that an the end of their relationship?
“Manager… do I have to go?”
The departnt head nodded, “The decision has been made by the higher-ups; you’re the most suitable. Nanshan is still in developnt, do well over there, and you’ll have a bright future.”
But Song Yang only saw darkness ahead; this promotion was so sudden. Just a mont ago, he was having lunch with his Nian, and now he had to talk about parting ways.
Su Nian hadn’t accepted him yet, and a long-distance relationship surely wouldn’t work.
From Nanshan to Mai City, even by plane, it would take two hours, making it difficult to et even once…
Song Yang felt so deflated he couldn’t focus on work.
Su Nian was buried in her spreadsheets, oblivious to Song Yang’s intense gaze. Her stomach was in knots, and wearing a skirt today made it worse with the air conditioning on, she felt chilled all over and uncomfortable no matter how she sat.
“Today we need to finalize this month’s payroll, everyone get spirited, we need to be fast and accurate!” the departnt head announced today’s tasks, and everyone was busy calculating wages.
Su Nian just wanted to go ho, wrap herself in a blanket, and lie in bed; her stomach hadn’t hurt this bad in a long ti.
“Sister Niannian, what’s wrong with you? You look so pale.”
“My stomach is uncomfortable.”
As a woman, Wei Lan certainly understood the misery of nstrual pain, which cannot rely be described as a bit of discomfort.
“Take leave from the departnt head, pushing yourself isn’t the solution.” At that mont, the departnt head was standing by Xue Qi’s desk, so Wei Lan directly called out to him, “Manager, Su Nian is not feeling well and would like to take the afternoon off.”
The departnt head frowned; he would have scolded anyone else, but Su Nian’s recent relationship with President Shen made him more considerate as he ca over to ask, “What’s wrong? Can you bear it? We have a lot of work today. The payroll must be submitted before we clock out, so if you can bear it, it’s better not to take a leave.”
