Chapter 501: 118: Retribution_6

Yes.

Right.

This is his promotion document.

Zhu Chao furrowed his brows tightly before continuing, "Do you still remember the old lady you helped last week in the service hall?"

"I remember." Zhang Youcai nodded.

Zhu Chao explained, "That was deliberately arranged by the leadership above to test your adaptability. You were the only one in our department who passed the assessment!"

Having heard this, Zhang Youcai was particularly excited.

His heartbeat quickened.

He just knew that the old lady couldn’t be just any ordinary person.

It seemed his guess was indeed correct.

Zhang Youcai now felt especially fortunate that he had reached out to help the old lady.

Otherwise, he would have regretted it for life!

Zhu Chao, looking at Zhang Youcai who could barely hide his thoughts, slightly furrowed his brows and said, "Don’t be too happy too soon."

Upon hearing this.

Zhang Youcai was stunned.

What did Zhu Chao mean?

The promotion documents had already come down, so why couldn’t he be happy yet?

Zhu Chao then took out another document and threw it in front of Zhang Youcai, "Now, take a look at this."

Zhang Youcai picked up the document with a confused expression.

Upon looking.

He was completely stunned.

His face turned deathly pale.

Demotion review?

Zhang Youcai could hardly react.

Zhu Chao was even more full of worry; after all, Zhang Youcai was the young man he favored the most. He never expected Zhang Youcai to make such a foolish mistake!

Wasn’t this self-destruction of his future prospects?

Even Zhu Chao had never encountered a situation like this before where on one hand, he received a promotion document and on the other, a demotion review.

It took a good while before Zhang Youcai came to his senses and said, "Director Zhu, why... why is this happening?"

He hadn’t done anything, so why was he being subjected to a demotion review?

Why indeed!

"You still have the nerve to ask!" Zhu Chao was almost uncontrollably angry, "I ask you, was the Beauty Chant incident handled by you?"

Beauty Chant?

Hearing these three words, Zhang Youcai’s expression on his face instantly froze.

Could it be...

Could it really be because of Beauty Chant?

But Beauty Chant was just a small company, how could it have caused such a big fuss?

Seeing that Zhang Youcai was silent for a long time, Zhu Chao almost sprang up from his seat, "I’m asking if this matter has anything to do with you!"

Zhang Youcai swallowed hard.

How could it come to this?

He had thought that Beauty Chant couldn’t stir up any trouble...

But now, the situation had taken such a turn.

Zhang Youcai looked up at Zhu Chao, "You mean, my demotion is because of Beauty Chant?"

"What else did you think!" Zhu Chao slammed the desk, making a loud noise, "Do you know that Beauty Chant is a god of wealth that many cities fight over? And you! You actually dared to settle personal scores using official resources, holding up Beauty Chant’s review material!"

Zhang Youcai’s complexion immediately turned ashen, and his legs shook. He looked at Zhu Chao, almost crying, "Director Zhu, I really didn’t know things would turn out like this, please forgive me this once, okay? I am willing to make amends for my mistake!"

With that, Zhang Youcai knelt on the ground, grabbing the hem of Zhu Chao’s clothes.

Zhang Youcai understood his situation all too well!

If he were demoted, it would be the end for him; there’d be no talk of a future for him.

No.

He couldn’t be demoted.

Zhu Chao shook off Zhang Youcai’s hand, "What’s the use of regretting now? Do you realize that even I have been put in a terrible position because of you!"

Zhang Youcai indeed bore responsibility for this incident.

He had not supervised the work of the department well enough.

Zhang Youcai was left lying on the ground, his facial expression indescribable.

No one knew how much he regretted it now.

If he had known Beauty Chant was this powerful, he wouldn’t have agreed to Xianxian...

Now, even his own future was in jeopardy.

Zhu Chao pressed his temples, "Pack up your personal items from your workstation and leave quickly."

Zhang Youcai didn’t leave immediately, but looked up at Zhu Chao, "Director Zhu, is there really no other way?"

Zhu Chao sighed, "Can’t you see? I am like a clay Buddha crossing a river!"

Even he was in a situation where he couldn’t save himself, let alone Zhang Youcai.

Zhang Youcai felt extremely unwilling.

He had already received the promotion document, yet because of one wrong decision, his future was completely ruined.

This sensation of gaining and then losing was simply too painful!

It was nearly suffocating.

"Get out." Zhu Chao issued an eviction order.

It took a great effort for Zhang Youcai to pick himself up from the ground, staggering as he walked out.

He reached his desk.

He had endured here for three whole years for the chance of a promotion, becoming the envy of everyone.

But now...

Zhang Youcai wanted to cry, but not a single tear would come out.
