Chapter 745: My Office Culture
Guan Xiaoman and the others sat in Shen Qianshu’s office.
Guan Xiaoman said, “Qianshu, actually, we aren’t here to ask you for the jewelry to be appraised… We just wanted to ask you to help us design a set of jewelry. The Golden Horse Award is coming up soon. Three of us will likely be nominated, and the others would be receiving awards. We have always been known as the ‘sisters’ in the entertainment industry. This time, I hope that you can design a set of jewelry for us to showcase our friendship. I’m just wondering if you have the time.”
“Designing?”
“Right!” Guan Xiaoman said. “Honestly speaking, we should look for BG first. You are their designer. We looked for you privately mainly because this way, you’d make more too.”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Sister Xiaoman, you don’t have to be so kind to me. I have shares in BG too.
“Okay. I got it,” Shen Qianshu said softly.
After Guan Xiaoman and the others left, Shen Qianshu began writing her resignation letter. The Boss came in and said sincerely, “Qianshu…”
“Boss, you don’t have to explain. I know why you chose to give up on me. I had planned to stay in Gubelin for two more years, and you can’t keep me for long anyway. I won’t stay here and insist on not leaving. I will not ruin Gubelin’s reputation elsewhere too. I will remember your kindness.”
Even if he had picked Lu Mengxi now.
“Qianshu, you are too proud of your talent, and you regard things with contempt. Why can’t you ever take a step back?”
If you could take a step back, everyone would be happy. How good would that be…
“If I took a step back, I wouldn’t be Shen Qianshu. You won’t want me either,” Shen Qianshu said calmly, and her gaze darkened. “Boss, things have come to such a stage. There’s no use speaking more about it.”
The two of them looked at each other calmly. The Boss said, “You know how many people hate you in this lab? How many people wait to see you become a joke? So many people wish that you would fall apart. The office is not as simple as you think it is.”
Shen Qianshu said, “Ever since Lu Mengxi came, I have sensed that you are very dissatisfied with me. It is not a new thing that I am proud of my talents. You knew it long ago. Why have you never spoken about it? You trained me so well, but I became a designer of BG, and you feel insecure. You are unhappy that I am so ungrateful that I even found another job other than this, but Boss, what I’m good at is designing.
“Back then, I chose to become an appraiser because I was forced to. Yet, I have always handled work matters were clearly, and I have never messed up. I make sure I deserve what I’m being paid. At the stone gambling competition, I was rather willing to let things be and not argue with Gubelin. In fact, I had no intention of turning things ugly for Lu Mengxi. If you watched the live-stream, you could tell that Lu Mengxi was the one being combative. I was forced to retaliate. But you don’t care. You know that the person you try so hard to support is being stepped under me. What’s more? I wasn’t representing Gubelin. You wish I would let Lu Mengxi receive the first place. Is this the culture of your workplace? Then, I’m sorry. I haven’t learned about this culture. I’m so poor I could become a beggar. I have put down my dignity before, but I have never abandoned my principles and morals.”
The Boss remained silent. Shen Qianshu laughed thoughtfully. “Boss, I may not understand the work culture you have, so in the future, please don’t include me in your work culture.”
She said firmly, “I’ll be my own boss and let others be accustomed to my culture!”
Only the successful ones would gain a following!
From now on, she had to handle her own matters and no longer let others have a chance to take advantage of her.
