Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Astonishing Remark_1

Bai Xiaosheng’s visit to the Lu Family ended with both host and guest in high spirits.

The little interlude with Chen Jiutian and his son didn’t affect anyone’s mood.

In the end,

it was still Cheng, along with the driver, who drove Bai Xiaosheng and Wei Xuelian back to their apartment.

By the time they returned, it was already late.

The two entered the apartment and, at the doorway, bid each other goodnight.

"Don’t forget, what you owe me this time is a month’s worth of breakfasts!"

Before entering his door, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t forget to remind Wei Xuelian.

Wei Xuelian gave a charming smile, her expression tipsy and playfully cute, and as she turned, she said, "Every time I make a bet with you, it seems if you lose, I don’t really gain anything. This isn’t fair! So this time doesn’t count. Let’s have a fair rematch another day!"

How can that be! One should honor their bets and admit defeat...

Bai Xiaosheng hadn’t even had a chance to open his mouth and lecture, when Wei Xuelian nimbly slipped into her own door, and afterward, it closed with a "bang."

"Ah... sigh! Next time I set a trap, I shouldn’t do it in front of her. What a good girl she used to be, and now she’s learned to be bad!" Bai Xiaosheng sighed deeply as he pushed his door open to go home.

Next door, Wei Xuelian was laughing, leaning against the door, hearing Bai Xiaosheng’s words clearly and finding them amusing.

This time, she had finally made Bai Xiaosheng feel frustrated.

"For tomorrow’s breakfast, should I change it up? I’ve more or less figured out his taste," Wei Xuelian mused to herself.

In the following days, Bai Xiaosheng received different breakfasts from Wei Xuelian.

Sometimes it was a bowl of noodles with a few small dishes, other times it was a bowl of nourishing porridge with handmade small stuffed buns, flower rolls, and pickles.

Bai Xiaosheng was pleasantly surprised to find that each dish suited his taste perfectly, warming his heart and making him feel a sense of sweet affection.

With his spirits lifted, Bai Xiaosheng wanted to work hard, earn points, and level up.

However, he found that there was no work for him!

Chen Daya, the workaholic, was able to handle over ninety percent of the project issues perfectly.

And, following the previous inventory count and database restructuring event, everyone on the project had become more compliant, with significantly less procrastination, shirking, and quibbling.

Of course, there were times when Chen Daya would encounter some uncooperative people.

Once, they annoyed Chen Daya so much that he blurted out on the spot, "If you guys continue like this, I’m not handling it anymore!"

Those who had annoyed him just looked at him with a "We don’t care if you handle it or not, who are you trying to scare?" expression.

"I’ll have Manager Bai take over!" Chen Daya left them with those words and turned to walk away.

As a result, those people actually took the initiative to apologize to him in his office that day and worked overtime to complete the tasks beyond expectations.

This trick really worked!

Chen Daya was excited and began to fully utilize this trump card.

Consequently, when Bai Xiaosheng sought out Chen Daya for some challenging work, Chen Daya just scratched his head.

Where were there any problems left?

By now, the entire project was half a month ahead of schedule!

They were ahead by more than ten days!

Suddenly, Bai Xiaosheng felt dejected.

"Could it be that I am to stop making progress at the manager level?"

Bai Xiaosheng was troubled!

Several days later.

In the main conference room of Century Construction’s headquarters.

A progress report meeting was taking place.

This was a monthly work report meeting, which the heads of all projects under the Century Construction umbrella were required to attend.

Chen Daya represented Teles Square.

Initially, Chen Daya had intended to let Bai Xiaosheng come.

But Bai Xiaosheng insisted on declining.

Firstly, there was hardly anything he had handled himself, so he really had nothing much to say.

Secondly, this meeting would last for most of the day, lengthy and dull, and was simply a waste of life.

Bai Xiaosheng was already annoyed with nothing to do these past few days, and felt even less inclined to attend.

So, in the end, it was still Chen Daya who came over.

As usual, the person in charge of each project spoke first, followed by comments from Shang Wenshu and Wang Ye.

When it was Chen Daya’s turn, the gaze of several other project managers flickered.

Recently, Teles Square had made some big waves: Xiaosan, the person in charge, resigned and left, the deputy project manager went mad, and what’s more, Master Song Kai visited with the district mayor and even promised to do the ribbon-cutting ceremony...

All these incidents, coupled with the prestige of the project, made everyone extremely interested.

Of course, there were also those who were holding back smirks, ready to laugh at any misfortune.

The more issues that arise, the more time and effort must be diverted, and how could that not affect the progress of the work?

Sitting opposite Chen Daya was a short and plump middle-aged man with a slightly balding head, who preemptively opened the discussion.

"I say, Chen, there’s been quite a stir in your project, with so many issues cropping up. How’s the work progress coming along? Any delays?"

"Short, plump, and balding," asked with a smirk that was anything but humorous.

This man was originally going to be the project manager at Teles Square, but because Shang Wenshu had strongly recommended Chen Daya, he could only lead a barely alive project, naturally harbouring a belly full of grievances. Not daring to show his displeasure to Shang Wenshu, he had always targeted Chen Daya.

Chen Daya was also extremely annoyed with this man, always responding coldly.

But this time, Chen Daya was all smiles, not only unconcerned but also happy that the other had brought up the topic.

He was just looking for the opportunity to report!

"Thanks for the reminder, Wang. Let me report on our project’s progress to everyone!"

Chen Daya was visibly excited, his usual dejection swept away, and he reported nonstop with great enthusiasm for a full twenty minutes without pause.

Listening to the current state of Teles Square.

Everyone present was stunned, even Shang Wenshu found it unbelievable.

How was this work done! The progress had actually caught up by half a month to the schedule!

Last time, there were frequent issues! The pace was slow!

That Wang was dumbfounded; compared to them, it appeared his team was the one that was sluggish and mediocre!

"Are you serious? This isn’t just bragging, is it? Can it really be this fast?" asked Manager Wang, unable to contain himself.

Hearing this question made everyone look askance at him.

Those who knew Chen Daya’s character understood that Chen was cunning; he would do five parts of work but claim only three. If he dared to speak this way, the reality wasn’t just as he described, it had to be even more.

"I welcome you to inspect the site. If any part doesn’t match my words, you can slap me right in the face in public!" Chen Daya spoke proudly.

Joking aside, could you understand how effective it was to make use of Bai Xiaosheng’s fearsome reputation?

The work now was simply too easy!

Wang knew Chen Daya well too and kept silent, bowing his head.

This time he really had a chance to be smug!

Chen Daya felt comfortable!

"Not bad!"

After listening to the report, Shang Wenshu was also pleased and politely gave the floor to Mrs. Wang, "Mrs. Wang, please give us your comments."

Mrs. Wang nodded slightly.

"Well, Manager Chen Zhongshi, you’ve done a good job, I believe the actual situation is even better!" Mrs. Wang actually offered praise.

Chen Daya felt even more proud!

"However, this project is crucial to our entire company’s development! It’s too important, especially with the opening imminent, we can’t proceed without a leader on site! Therefore, I have decided to go to Teles Square immediately to stay on site. All matters at the headquarters I will temporarily hand over to Mr. Shang!"

"Ah!"

Chen Daya’s smile was still on his face but had frozen there.

Mrs. Wang’s casual remark had caught everyone off guard, leaving them all stunned.

Even Shang Wenshu was taken aback!

Mrs. Wang, he’s going to stay on site!
