My Ex-Wife Disappeared for Years and Had My Babies-Chapter 53 - : Afraid She’ll Be Bullied Because of Her Low Status

Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Afraid She’ll Be Bullied Because of Her Low Status

Su Nian hadn’t even had the chance to explain her situation when the director had already concluded with “no leave.”

Xue Qi couldn’t resist mocking: “Are you afraid of hardship? Seeing the heavy tasks today, you’re finding excuses to shirk.”

Wei Lan rolled her eyes at her: “Do you think it’s you?!”

“Forget it, Lanlan, it’s been an hour, just hang on till the end of the day.”

Wei Lan looked at Su Nian, who was pale as a sheet, filled with worry.

She couldn’t help but call out to the director again: “Director! Look at her pale face, what if she faints?”

...

The director turned his head and glared at her, scolding sharply: “We’re here to work, what’s with the screaming? She knows her own body best, and she said she’s fine, what are you anxious about?” After speaking, he was about to turn away, but unexpectedly, a deep yet commanding voice suddenly asked, “What’s all the noise about?”

The director turned around and his arrogant demeanor immediately vanished, his head nodding submissively: “President Shen…”

Shen Hanxiu normally didn’t bother with these trivial matters; one could say that before Su Nian joined the company, he hardly ever went down to the departments, but just now after finishing a meeting, he happened to see the commotion happening at Su Nian’s desk and immediately walked over.

Although he knew this woman was not someone easily bullied, she was just a junior accountant now, and he worried she might be oppressed due to her lower position.

The director remained silent, so Wei Lan immediately explained the reason: “President Shen, Su Nian is feeling unwell and wanted to take leave, but the director refused. Although the work is important, the health of the employees is crucial!”

Shen Hanxiu looked at the pale-faced Su Nian, then turned to glare at the director, who glared back at Wei Lan, annoyed that a mere intern dared to tattle on him!

Due to Shen Hanxiu being present, the director had to quickly “whitewash” himself: “It’s not like that, President Shen. Today we need to get the payroll done, and the workload is bigger than usual, so I asked her to try not to take leave… and besides… she herself didn’t say she absolutely needed the leave…”

Shen Hanxiu looked down at Su Nian, who hadn’t spoken but was frowning slightly, still unclear about what was bothering her; he knew all too well her tendency to downplay her discomfort.

After a silence, he softly instructed, “Accountant Su, come to my office for a moment.” Then, turning to the director, he said: “I’ll send someone over.”

Su Nian didn’t know what he intended to do now, feeling really uncomfortable already, and he was just adding to the confusion; did he think she wasn’t annoyed enough?

The director quickly nodded and bowed repeatedly as he said goodbye: “Yes, yes, yes, take care, President Shen.”

Shen Hanxiu turned back to see the unmoving Su Nian and called out again: “Accountant Su.”

Only then did Su Nian stop typing, not giving him a glance, clearly very dissatisfied, and followed him out of the office.

Passing by Song Yang, he asked with concern, “Nian, what’s wrong?”

Su Nian forced a pale smile and replied, “It’s nothing,” then quickly caught up with Shen Hanxiu.

In the elevator, Su Nian stood in the furthest corner from him, never letting her gaze fall on him.

In the quiet elevator, his inquiring voice came, “What’s uncomfortable? Did you catch a cold from the rain?”

Before Su Nian could respond, he, who was originally standing in another corner, somehow appeared behind her, his hand reaching for her forehead.
