Chapter 315 - 315 315 1 Person Watching

315: Chapter 315: 1 Person Watching 315: Chapter 315: 1 Person Watching It was just after ten in the morning, in the Office Support Team three of the Security Department, the duty room.

After the sudden visit from the office manager Xu Pingliang, the entire duty room fell dead silent.

Of course, this did not include the light snoring of Lin Fei.

“…Xu, Manager Xu, Brother Luo—Manager Luo, he, he stayed up last night to do, to draft our team three’s schedule for the month.”

Having forced himself to find a clumsy excuse for Lin Fei, Li Yang swallowed his saliva nervously and plucked up the courage to continue speaking well of Lin Fei, “Manager Luo, he just—just fell asleep.

Manager Xu, if you don’t believe it you can ask—”

“There’s nothing to disbelieve, Manager Luo has always been diligent and dedicated.

Our Security Department is only so outstanding in our work because we have conscientious employees like Manager Luo, who sacrifice sleep for work and treat the hotel like home,” Xu Pingliang said seriously as he looked around the room, advising Li Yang and the others, “As the saying goes, ‘One takes on the attributes of one’s associates.’ You must all learn from Manager Luo and see him as a role model.

As long as you closely unite around Manager Luo and earnestly follow his leadership, I believe your team three can become the best one among the six teams of our Security Department, both in office and fieldwork!”

“Alright, that’s all I have to say.

Get back to your work.”

Having finished doling out his ‘chicken soup for the soul,’ Xu Pingliang turned to leave, but stopped at the door to give one more special instruction, “Manager Luo has been working hard day and night for his job; make sure you do not disturb his rest.

Whoever wakes Manager Luo, be careful, I’ll dock his pay.”

“Also, I have a blanket in my office.

Someone from you go with me to my office and get it.”

After glancing around, Xu Pingliang picked a security guard from team three nearby, “You, follow me to the office and bring back the blanket to cover Manager Luo, lest he catches a cold.”

“…Since when did our hotel’s leadership start treating employees so well?

Why does this feel so unreal to me?”

Over ten seconds after Xu Pingliang left, someone finally murmured uncertainly, “What do you think?

Could Manager Xu be speaking sarcastically because he’s too angry to confront it head-on?”

“If he’s not too angry, then he must have taken the wrong medication.

Otherwise, why wouldn’t he get angry at all but instead let someone bring a blanket for Brother Luo to cover himself with?”

“You didn’t mention the blanket and I wouldn’t have thought about it, but now that you mention it, doesn’t it seem like Manager Xu is deliberately trying to curry favor with Brother Luo?”

“That’s simple, haven’t you forgotten that Brother Luo has connections ‘upstairs’?”

Li Yang motioned upwards and lowered his voice deliberately, whispering confidently, “I’d bet my bottom dollar that someone ‘upstairs’ must have spoken to Manager Xu.

Otherwise, you think about it, could you have been easily transferred back?”

“Now that you mention it, the one ‘upstairs’ above Brother Luo doesn’t seem simple at all, able to make Manager Xu take the initiative to please Brother Luo.”

A security guard near Li Yang touched his chin, his gaze shifting to the sleeping Lin Fei, and marveled with a hint of disbelief, “No wonder Brother Luo has never taken Fat Wang seriously.

I get it now, Brother Luo’s got a firm hold on connections!”

“The connection part is for sure, but now I’m really curious as to who that person ‘upstairs’ above Brother Luo could be.

It couldn’t really be, like Brother Luo himself said, that President Mu is his wife, could it?”

“Give me a break, will you?

Just think about it, if your wife was the general manager, would you be content being just a supervisor?

Wouldn’t you at least be a director, or at the very least a manager?”

“Then who do you say that person ‘upstairs’ above Brother Luo is?!”

“Isn’t it obvious, I have no idea.”

“…Right, let’s stop the wild guessing.

Since Brother Luo doesn’t want to talk about it, he must have his reasons.”

After stopping the others from making wild guesses, Li Yang shooed everyone out, “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s all step out.

We don’t want to wake up Brother Luo later, in case Manager Xu really does dock our pay.”

Reminded by Li Yang, all the security guards from team three left the duty room to their own devices.

Thus, Lin Fei was left to enjoy the duty room alone and slept straight through until five in the afternoon (after all, he had had a hard night).
