The assistant's words intensified Su Ye's anger, not knowing who was fanning the flames behind her back, spreading rumors haphazardly.
Fuming, Su Ye paced back and forth in her office while the assistant stood to one side, speaking softly, "The rumors got worse during the time you were away, and it's obvious that they only dared to do this because you weren't here."
"If you ask me, you might as well play dumb for now. This kind of groundless hearsay will collapse on its own, fading away naturally with time."
Su Ye didn't utter a word, but what the assistant had said made sense.
The more it was times like these, the more necessary it was to stay calm; otherwise, you might end up with a loss instead of a gain, creating more problems for yourself by trying to be clever. She might as well wait a little longer to see what other tricks the rumor monger had up their sleeve.
