Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 398

Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Advance Salary

Cheng Su held a tea mug and sat in front of Chen Zhiquan, noticing his nervousness. She smiled and started asking about the time he joined the company, how he was doing, and if he had any insights or questions, suggesting that discussing them could be beneficial for everyone.

Chen Zhiquan had initially thought he must have done something wrong to be called in by Cheng Su for tea. However, as he listened to the casual conversation, or perhaps it was her gentle smile and relaxed tone that influenced him, he gradually loosened up and even managed to crack a smile.

Cheng Su took a sip of tea and asked, "Director Zhu mentioned that you’ve been a bit preoccupied lately, and not in very good spirits, right?"

Chen Zhiquan’s smile stiffened.

"Is it because the sales job is too tiring and difficult? Do you need a couple of days off to rest? It’ll be paid leave, don’t worry."

"No need, I’m not tired at all," Chen Zhiquan hastily waved off, saying, "President Cheng, I don’t need to rest."

"Then is there some trouble at home?" Cheng Su looked at the man in his thirties, who was quite different from his previously spirited self, now with a constant frown and an unmistakable look of worry in his eyes.

Chen Zhiquan shivered, his lips twitched into a forced smile, saying, "No trouble at all," though his heart was full of bitterness.

"Zhiquan, if you’re facing difficulties, just speak up. The company will extend a helping hand where it can," Cheng Su smiled and said, "Now that you’re with Joy Soon Loy, we’re all family here. Whatever the trouble, just let us know."

Chen Zhiquan looked at her, her gaze sincere, but could he really talk about the mess at home?

He couldn’t bring himself to say it.

"President Cheng, there’s really nothing wrong," Chen Zhiquan said, lowering his head to hide the bitterness in his eyes.

Seeing this, Cheng Su’s brow furrowed slightly as she picked up her tea.
