The woman whispered into his ear and he looked up and smiled. âThis is all a misunderstanding. This girl is referred to us by her roommate and her roommate said she had already explained all the details to her. We would not otherwise have her sign the contract.â
âBut the one that I signed was not the same as the one that youâve showed me later.â Li Shuyu held her motherâs hand tightly. Whether she could get out of here all depended on this moment.
âIs what she said true?â Wang Xiaosan turned to look at the woman.
âThatâs impossible. Thereâs only 1 contract and youâve only signed your name once. How would it turn into a different contract? I can go get it so you can real through it if you donât believe me.â Having said that, the woman walked away, her heels clacking on the floor. She returned with two contracts in her hands. âLook, Boss, this is the contract that she signed the other day. We havenât entered her into the system yet, which was why we hadnât given her her copy yet.â
Wang Xiaosan opened up the contract, looked through it, then smacked the woman over her head with the contract. âLook carefully again. What she signed is the temporary contract.â
The woman quickly took the contract over and turned pale after taken a look at it before she said nervously, âWe have signed quite a few people recently perhaps Iâve made a mistake. Iâm sorry, Boss. It was my mistake.â
Li Shuyu looked left and right, frowned. Was it really just a mistake?
Hu Ruixue and Shu Yan, on the other side, knew it clearly. This Wang Xiaosan and woman were obviously putting up a show in front of them. Nevertheless, the most important thing right now was to bring Li Shuyu with them. Calling them out right now wouldnât do her any good.
âThat was quite a mistake. Wang Xiaosan, sheâs not a very good employee then!â Hu Ruixue hrumphed.
âYes, you are right.â Wang Xiaosan turned and gave the woman a stare. âYou are fired.â He then turned to Hu Ruixue and said to her, âYou know this girl? Maybe I can make her a lead?â
Hu Ruixue didnât say anything. She took the contract from Wang Xiaosan and looked over it. It says 10 yuan per hour and must work a minimum of 20 hours per week. If they couldnât, then their hourly rate would be lowered to 8 yuan per hour. They would need to give one month notice in order to quit. It was a very standard contract.
âWell, what do you want to do? Do you want to keep working here?â Hu Ruixue handed the two contracts over to Li Shuyu.
Li Shuyu shook her head frantically. She wouldnât dare to work there anymore. She was already too grateful being able to get out this time.
âAs it was my people who made the mistake, I, too, am responsible as their boss. If you want to continue to work here, Iâll make you the lead. 3,000 yuan a month before your bonus. If you donât want to continue to work here, Iâll have someone tally up your wages and give you three times the amount.â Of course, Wang Xiaosan was only polite to Li Shuyu because of Hu Ruixue.
âNo, no. I donât want to work here anymore.â Li Shuyu shook her head immediately.
Wang Xiaosan told is assistant next to him and Finance quickly tallied out Li Shuyuâs wages. She worked full time during the winter vacation, meaning 7 hours a day. A permanent employee would be paid 500 yuan plus bonus but Li Shuyu, as a temporary employee who worked for 12 days. Three times of that came out to be 2,520 yuan. Wang Xiaosan straight up gave her 3,000 yuan.
âThatâs too much.â Li Shuyu shook her head and pulled out several bills to return to Wang Xiaosan.
âThe extra is to make up to you,â said Wang Xiaosan with a smile. Several hundred yuan was immaterial to him.
âKeep it.â Hu Ruixue had Li Shuyu kept the extra. In the end of the day, Wang Xiaosan was being so easygoing because of the Hu family. The two families were family friends and Wang Xiaosanâs brother was a brother of Hu Ruixueâs brother. âYour brother does the scholar route. Donât bring him down with you.â
âI wonât. This really is a legit business. Itâs all a misunderstanding.â Wang Xiaosan gave her an aggrieved look.
âWell, good then.â Hu Ruixue hrumphed and said, âI got other matters to tend to. We will be on our way.â
Li Shuyu had already changed back into her own clothes and followed closely behind Aunty.
