Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Leave to Get the Certificate
Maeve was stunned.
What?
She’s going to register her marriage with her boyfriend tomorrow?
Maeve glanced at the calendar; tomorrow is Chinese Valentine’s Day.
Getting married on Chinese Valentine’s Day, how romantic!
Han Na said in surprise, “Lin Qi, you really know how to pick a date!”
Lin Qi said, “What’s the matter? It was my fiancé who chose the date.”
Han Na, even more envious, said: “Your boyfriend is so romantic! Tomorrow is Chinese Valentine’s Day! Getting married on Valentine’s Day, you’re so lucky!”
Maeve, not giving up, asked: “So, do you plan to register your marriage before buying a house?”
Lin Qi looked at Maeve with a hint of mockery in her eyes: “Yes. Didn’t Ms. Mia just say, buying a house before marriage counts as pre-marital property? It’s hard on Ms. Mia to consider so much for , but don’t worry, Ms. Mia, my fiancé has also considered this. He said, once we’re registered, we’ll finalize the marital ho and put it under my na.”
Maeve was genuinely taken aback, her face ashen: “Under your na?”
Lin Qi said, “I’m marrying him, why shouldn’t the house be under my na?”
Maeve said: “He… How can he be so generous! How much bride price did your family give for this marriage?”
Lin Qi said: “Not decided.”
Maeve, still not satisfied, asked: “And this house you’re buying, are you contributing money?”
Lin Qi laughed: “No. I work at Huace, making tens of thousands a month, but these villas cost hundreds of millions each, I can’t even afford the renovation costs.”
Even though Huo Tingdong transferred most of his assets under her na, she never thought about touching that money.
She has her own capabilities, she doesn’t really need to rely solely on her husband and son.
Maeve clenched her fists so tightly her fingernails almost dug into her palms, her voice dripping with jealousy, “Then why do you still co to work? Were I you, I’d rather stay ho to care for my husband and children, and not co to the office to experience others’ attitudes.”
Lin Qi was sowhat clueless, “I don’t find working too hard; I feel very fulfilled every day. I don’t like staying at ho doing nothing every day, only focusing on my husband and children, how boring would that be?”
Adding deeper aning, she said: “Especially when I can et a boss like Ms. Mia who cares so much about , it really is my honor!”
Maeve’s facial muscles twitched violently, she was just about to react, but then she thought, maybe Lin Qi was just using the villa plans to provoke her on purpose!
She simply couldn’t believe that Lin Qi’s mysterious fiancé could really be so lavish as to buy such an expensive villa just for her!
Only entrepreneurs worth billions or at least senior executives could afford such expensive villas.
If she could marry into such a high family, why would she still need to work?
Maeve, unconvinced, didn’t continue on this topic anymore.
The office quieted down, everyone busy with their own tasks.
Han Na leaned closer to Lin Qi and whispered, “Lin Qi, are you looking at matrimonial hos?”
Lin Qi said, “Yes, but we haven’t found the right one yet.”
Han Na said, “I’m so jealous of you, you’ll be able to live in a big villa! Such a big house, I can’t even dare to think about it. Your life is my dream!”
Lin Qi laughed lightly: “I think no matter how big the house is, it’s all the sa.”
If it wasn’t for Huo Tingdong being accustod to living in villas, with her easy-going nature, any size house would do for her.
She previously lived in such a small rented house with Momo, and they were content and happy.
Han Na suddenly curious asked: “Lin Qi, shall we have lunch together during the break today?”
Lin Qi hesitated for a long while, then firmly refused: “Not today, I’m going to have lunch with my fiancé.”
Han Na said: “Together, ah, I’ll save a spot for him.”
It just so happened that she also wanted to see what Lin Qi’s fiancé looked like. He must be a successful man!
Lin Qi smiled, “Good, if he’s not busy, we’ll eat together; if he is, we’ll go to the cafeteria.”
Han Na nodded.
Noon.
Lin Qi and Huo Tingdong ssaged each other via WeChat.
Huo Tingdong replied to her: “I’m quite busy today, don’t wait for for lunch.”
So Lin Qi went to the cafeteria with Han Na.
Upon arriving at the cafeteria, it wasn’t very crowded.
Han Na said, “Lin Qi, did you know that the cafeteria food has been upgraded? The company has brought in a new team of chefs from star-rated hotels, the food has greatly improved than before.”
On hearing this, Lin Qi was montarily stunned. She suddenly rembered that she and Huo Tingdong had once complained about the bad food in the company cafeteria.
To her surprise, he really took it to heart and changed to a team of star-rated chefs.
After lunch, the HR departnt sent Lin Qi an email. Her confirmation procedures had been approved, and she would officially transfer positions next Friday.
The entire afternoon.
All the team leaders were in etings.
Maeve was not around, no one bothered her, she slacked off all afternoon, finishing her work early. She studied the layout plan carefully; comparing it, she was quite satisfied with the Xiangxie Palace, although it was the smallest among a few layouts, but considering a renovation, it should be quite comfortable to live in.
Nearing the end of the workday.
Huo Tingdong sent a WeChat ssage, “I might be late off work today, will you wait for ?”
Lin Qi replied, “Sure, I’ll wait for you to get off work together.”
anwhile.
The project team eting ended.
Maeve returned to the workplace and seeing Lin Qi, who incredibly hadn’t left on ti and was still at the company, was surprised: “Lin Qi, why aren’t you in a rush to clock out today?”
Lin Qi ignored her question, stood up, and walked over to the supervisor.
The supervisor, just out of a eting and stressed, saw Lin Qi approaching her desk, sowhat impatiently said, “What is it?”
Lin Qi said, “Supervisor, I need to take half a day off tomorrow afternoon, I have already submitted the process, please rember to approve it.”
The supervisor frowned slightly, “What do you need the ti off for?”
Lin Qi said, “My fiancé and I have an appointnt to register for marriage tomorrow, so I need half a day off.”
The supervisor sowhat discontentedly said, “Unless it’s sick leave or bereavent leave, leave must be requested a week in advance, didn’t anyone tell you during training?”
Lin Qi was startled, “…”
The supervisor continued, “You have been either leaving early or coming in late recently, and now you’re asking for leave again, what do you think this company is?”
She rarely spoke so sternly to Lin Qi, maybe because she was severely criticized during the eting by Qi Lichuan for business issues, holding back frustration, hearing Lin Qi ask for leave, she vented on her!
Lin Qi said, “But we already have the registration appointnt made for tomorrow.”
The supervisor said, “Registration can be done any ti, who told you not to request leave earlier? Go get registered next week!”
Lin Qi knew she was being used as a punching bag, but she was too lazy to argue and then said, “If the leave is not approved, just mark absent for a day.”
Having said that, she returned to her desk.
Maeve couldn’t help adding fuel to the fire, “Lin Qi, what kind of attitude is that?”
