Chapter 1538: I Will Forever Protect Mr. Qin 9
"What departments are the job-hoppers from?"
"The major departments... we only have the heads of advertising, public relations, finance, security, sanitation, and storage left... Everyone else is gone. The company is in a complete mess right now."
"Did all the employees leave as well?"
"No, just the department heads... but they took a bunch of elite employees with them," Bella said.
"What about the deputy heads?" Huo Mian asked.
"They're all still there, but their capabilities..."
"Forget that, let everyone know that I said to promote the deputy heads of each department, and those who have worked at the company for five or more years to deputy heads. If no one's worked here for more than five years, then make it three years."
"But..." Yang hesitated, and Huo Mian ordered, "Go... it's the only remedy I've got right now. The company can't stop operating."
"Okay, we'll get on it right now."
"Wait..."
"Yes, Young Madam?"
"Make a company-wide announcement. Let everyone know that I'll be distributing the remaining salaries of the employees who left to everyone that is still here and thank them for not leaving during GK's time of need. Oh, and also tell them that President Qin is fine and that everything is just temporary."
"I will."
After Huo Mian delegated a bunch of tasks, she felt a little dizzy; perhaps it was because she hadn't been eating or sleeping well recently, but she was constantly exhausted.
Just then, someone knocked on her office door.
"Come in," Huo Mian massaged her temples and said tiredly.
"Sister Mian..."
"Why are you back? I thought you were filming out of town." Huo Mian was surprised to see Ni Yang, who walked up to her. "How can I be in the mood to film when something as big as this happened at the company?"
He felt bad for Huo Mian upon seeing her dark circles, and he quickly poured her a cup of hot tea. "Sis... President Qin is detained and the company is in chaos, you must have been put through a lot."
"It's okay... They're just experiences... No one can live without worry throughout their entire lives, it's just not realistic... Choosing to soar into the sky means you'll have to expect wind and rain, and choosing to swim in the ocean means you'll have to expect waves and crashes..."
"What a great chicken soup for the soul..."
"You little brat!" Huo Mian laughed as she glanced at Ni Yang.
"Sis... is there anything I can help you with?"
"Nope... just act and sing as you usually do."
"But I really want to help you."
Ni Yang was a grateful man; without Huo Mian, he wouldn't have reconciled with his mother, nor would he have a warm family and a cute, playful little brother.
Huo Mian even helped him regain his health...
"No, really, it's okay. Things aren't so simple... I'll deal with it, trust me."
'You're such a tiger woman..." Ni Yang looked heartbrokenly at Huo Mian; he admired her courage.
"How are things with you and Jie?"
"Pretty good, after she went back to the hospital things got busy again so we don't get to see each other very often, but my mom calls her home for dinner a couple of times a week."
"That's great, be good to her, okay?"
"I will."
Huo Mian looked down at her watch and quickly stood up.
"You need to be somewhere?" Ni Yang asked.
"Mhm."
"I'll give you a ride, Sis."
"No, it's okay, I'm going to see someone really important," Huo Mian said as she picked up her bag and left GK Headquarters.
Outside City Hall...
Huo Mian ran up to Mayor Song as soon as he walked out, and his assistant and bodyguard immediately ran up to stop her, "Hey, what do you think you're doing?"
"Mayor Song, can you spare me some time? I'd like to talk to you," she begged Song Yishi's father.
