Chapter 500: 118: Retribution_5

How could the higher-ups possibly pay attention to such a trivial matter?

Moreover,

he hadn’t done anything that violated the work regulations.

Just at that moment,

Zhang Youcai suddenly remembered something.

Last week, he had timely assisted an elderly woman with white hair at the office lobby.

At the time, he felt that the old lady was no ordinary person, and perhaps she was sent by the leadership to test their problem-solving abilities.

Therefore,

Zhang Youcai chose to proactively step forward to help the old lady when everyone else ignored her and resolved her issue.

Could it be...

That the higher-ups now wanted to commend him for this matter?

Yes.

It must be so.

Otherwise, he really couldn’t figure out why they would call him back in such a hurry.

With this thought, Zhang Youcai breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Zhang Xianxian with an apologetic expression, "Sorry Xianxian, there’s a sudden issue at work that I need to handle personally...."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xianxian said understandingly, "Brother Zhang, I know you are meant for big things, go ahead, I also need to head back to Qing City."

Zhang Xianxian didn’t want to waste any more time with Zhang Youcai in City C.

Hearing these words, Zhang Youcai couldn’t quite describe his feelings.

Almost no one believed he could stand out in his current field of work.

But Zhang Xianxian kept encouraging him and even believed he was meant for big things.

He would have to work harder and even harder to let Zhang Xianxian see his shining self. With this thought, Zhang Youcai’s face was full of self-assuredness.

He would not let down Zhang Xianxian’s trust in him.

Thinking he would soon be commended and might even get a promotion, Zhang Youcai couldn’t help but smile broadly and asked Zhang Xianxian, "When is your flight then?"

"Two o’clock in the afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Youcai checked his phone, and it was already eleven, with over two hours’ drive to his workplace. He frowned slightly, "Xianxian, how about I take you to the airport now?"

"No need, Brother Zhang, work is important, go back quickly," she replied.

Zhang Youcai nodded, "Then I’ll be off, send me a message when you get to the airport."

"Mm," Zhang Xianxian nodded slightly.

After bidding farewell to Zhang Xianxian, Zhang Youcai hurried back to the company.

As soon as he returned to the company, he received a WeChat message from Zhang Xianxian.

[Brother Zhang, I’m at the airport.]

Qing City and City C were close, just an hour’s flight away.

Zhang Youcai walked while replying to Zhang Xianxian’s message.

Just as he reached the office door, he saw a colleague waiting for him there.

Zhang Youcai put away his phone and asked, "Xiao Zheng, what happened?"

Xiao Zheng shook his head, "I don’t know what happened! Anyway, the boss is very anxious to see you! His face looks pretty bad too..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Youcai frowned slightly.

Could it be...

It’s not about the commendation?

As Xiao Zheng spoke, he asked further, "You haven’t made any slip-ups at work recently, have you?"

"No," Zhang Youcai answered.

Xiao Zheng scratched his head, "That’s strange, just be careful when you go in."

"Mm."

After speaking, Zhang Youcai straightened his tie and took out the small mirror he carried with him, checked that everything looked okay, and then knocked on the office door, "Director Zhu, I am Zhang Youcai."

"Come in," Zhu Chao’s voice came from inside.

Zhang Youcai pushed the door and entered.

As soon as he entered the office and barely steadied his steps, a vase was thrown in his direction, shattering at Zhang Youcai’s feet.

Bang!

Seeing this, Zhang Youcai’s face turned white with fear.

"Director Zhu, what, what’s going on?" Zhang Youcai asked with trepidation.

"What’s going on! You have the nerve to ask me what’s going on!" Zhu Chao said angrily, "Zhang Youcai, why don’t you ask yourself what foolish things you’ve done! Do you know that because of you, I’ve lost all face!"

Zhang Youcai was taken aback.

Him?

What had he done?

Apart from helping that old lady, Zhang Youcai couldn’t think of anything else.

Could it be...

That he shouldn’t have helped the old lady?

Zhang Youcai could never have imagined that his eagerness to help others would result in this.

Or was it because of Beauty Chant?

But Beauty Chant, that obscure little company, was even less likely to cause Director Zhu such outrage.

For a moment, Zhang Youcai went through everything in his mind.

But he still couldn’t fathom why his immediate superior was so angry!

Suddenly, Zhu Chao threw a document at him, "Take a look at what this is."

Zhang Youcai picked up the document, and upon looking, immediately felt joy well up inside him, laughed and said, "Thank you for your support, Director Zhu!"
