CHAPTER XIII

There is a saying called "love is proud, the casino is frustrated", which seems to just confirm Sun Kai's current situation.

Although he quickly bridged the emotional gap with Sissi through clever methods, so that he would not fall behind in the competition with Lin Junnan, he felt more and more embarrassed in the pangolin company.

Since Sun Kai was promoted to project manager, Zhao Dongliang seemed to be deliberately playing tricks on him, not only quickly pressed down a new software research and development project for his department, but also transferred two strong people from his team to support the newly established project department two;

Not only that, Zhao Dongliang also took Sun Kai almost every day, and even reprimanded him loudly regardless of the occasion, making him feel embarrassed.

Sun Kai knew that Zhao Dongliang was nothing more than deliberately finding faults, and his intention was nothing more than to show that he was still the general manager of Pangolin after all, even if it was someone arranged by Fang Yongping, he had to be controlled by him Zhao Dongliang. What's more, in the "Red Shield" incident, Sun Kai really sold a pass in front of him, if Fang Yongping didn't tell him thoroughly, then of course the anger in his stomach would only be sprinkled on Sun Kai's head!

For a few days in a row, Sun Kai had no energy when he went to work, and he even felt like a tired mouse, his tail would be stepped on at every turn, and he was worried all day long, wishing he would stay up early until he got off work.

At noon that day, Sun Kai finished lunch in the company's downstairs restaurant, and before he returned to his workstation, Zhao Dongliang stood at the door of his office and shouted angrily:

"Sun Kai, come here!"

Sun Kai didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly walked to Zhao Dongliang's office with his head down, he felt the back of his head being burned by the gazes of his colleagues around him.

"Mr. Zhao......" Sun Kai walked into Zhao Dongliang's office and stood cautiously at the door.

"Why is your project progressing so slowly lately?" Zhao Dongliang asked coldly.

"Everyone has been working overtime......

"You can't do anything except work overtime?!" Zhao Dongliang sharply interrupted Sun Kai's explanation, "Overtime is just a manifestation of inefficiency and incompetence!"

"Mr. Zhao," Sun Kai restrained his emotions, "our project department has been drained of two backbones, and I have heard that the second project department is also making exactly the same products as us." I don't know why the company is arranging it this way?"

"What you need to think about now is how to complete your tasks on time, instead of engaging in 'office politics' here all day long! Don't think that if you win benefits for the company in the bidding of the 'Great Wall' and 'Red Shield', you can become your capital in the pangolin! Let me tell you, everyone in the pangolin must rely on strength to eat! You go to a meeting with your team, I will give you three months, if you can't get anything again, you can go home!"

Zhao Dongliang waved his hand, didn't even look at Sun Kai, and didn't give him a chance to speak.

Coming out of Zhao Dongliang's office, Sun Kai lowered his head all the way and didn't dare to look at people. He knew that the people around him were staring at him with a mocking gaze at the moment. Didn't Zhao Dongliang's loud reprimand in the office just now deliberately say it to them?!

Sun Kai did not immediately hold a meeting with the team members as requested by Zhao Dongliang, but sat at his workstation and pondered for a long time. He is now fully aware of his position in the company, and no matter how hard he works, it will not help.

He dialed Fang Yongping's phone.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected, and a lazy voice came from inside.

"Hey, who?"

"Hello leader! I'm Sun Kai from the project department of Pangolin. ”

"Oh, what's wrong? I'm in a meeting. Fang Yongping's tone sounded a little stiff.

"I—I want to see you. Sun Kai stuttered nervously, "Please, do you have time?"

"What's the matter? Just say it on the phone, be brief!"

"What you arranged for me to do last time, Mr. Zhao didn't seem to understand......"

"What did I arrange? What did I arrange for you?"

"It's about Yuhong. Sun Kai didn't dare to say it explicitly, but he didn't know how to say it.

"What Yuhong, what do you want to say, I'm busy!" Fang Yongping said annoyingly.

"Leader, last time about Yuhong, I want to ask you to help me talk to Mr. Zhao, he seems to have an opinion on me. Sun Kai simply let it go.

"Inexplicable!" these were the last words Fang Yongping said. Then, there was a beep hanging line sound on the phone.

Fang Yongping's attitude undoubtedly poured cold water on Sun Kai's head, and he looked at the computer blankly, his heart was numb......

Even if he embarrassed Sun Kai every time, he still couldn't relieve his anger in Zhao Dongliang's heart. He felt that it was precisely because of what Sun Kai did that he couldn't hold his head up in the industry, especially Liu Zhibin. So, since that bidding, he has not met with Liu Zhibin again.

Sometimes things are so weird, and the more afraid you are of the people you see, the easier it is to bump into them. It didn't take long for Zhao Dongliang to meet Liu Zhibin unexpectedly at an exhibition!

At the moment when the eyes of the two were intertwined, Zhao Dongliang was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, but Liu Zhibin, as usual, elegantly stretched out his hand to Zhao Dongliang and greeted with a smile on his face:

"Brother Dongliang, such a coincidence!"

Zhao Dongliang passively shook Liu Zhibin's hand and said, "Yes, Zhibin, what a coincidence!"

"Looking for a place to sit?" Liu Zhibin glanced at the open-air café not far away.

"Okay!" Seeing Liu Zhibin's relaxed demeanor, Zhao Dongliang's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

Zhao Dongliang and Liu Zhibin sat face-to-face on the rattan chairs of the open-air café, drinking tea and chatting at the same time, the topics were nothing more than the recent situation of Yuhong and Pangolin, as well as the latest news in the industry, and so on. It's as if nothing has happened between the two.

Gradually, the guilt in Zhao Dongliang's heart began to torment him again, and it became stronger and stronger. He finally couldn't help but blurt out: "Zhibin, there is something I have been holding in my heart for many days, and I feel the need to make it clear to you!"

"What?!It's like you're doing something so badly!" Liu Zhibin looked disdainful, "I know what you're thinking! Forget it! It's all over!

"No, I have to say to you!" Zhao Dongliang stared at Liu Zhibin, "Don't you suspect that someone within your company leaked the 'Red Shield'?!"

Zhao Dongliang wanted to say that someone in Pangolin stole the core technology of "Red Shield", but when the words came to his lips, he turned a corner. He was worried that if he told Liu Zhibin directly, it would bring passivity to himself and the pangolin.

"Of course I did. Some things are unguardable......" Liu Zhibin said helplessly, "You don't know, the person in charge of the 'Red Shield' project has already resigned for this reason! Although I have repeatedly retained him, and I don't want him to take on all this!"

"It's Lin Junnan, right?"

"It's him. In fact, he is a trustworthy person!"

"That'...... Why did he resign?"

Liu Zhibin was silent for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Forget it! I really don't want to think about those things......

After separating from Liu Zhibin, Zhao Dongliang's heart became more and more uncalm. He had long heard Liu Zhibin talk about Lin Junnan's character and ability, and knew that Lin Junnan was Liu Zhibin's most appreciated talent. Although this leak is indeed related to Lin Junnan - Liu Zhibin may not really know about this - it must be that Sun Kai used the relationship between his classmates and roommates to take advantage of Lin Junnan's inattention, so Lin Junnan himself is also a victim of this incident.

Lin Junnan's resignation made Zhao Dongliang sigh.

Zhao Dongliang found Fang Yongping and asked him why he instructed Sun Kai to steal Yuhong's "red shield", but he was unexpectedly denied and severely accused by Fang Yongping.

"Mr. Zhao, as the general manager of the pangolin, you should first find your own position in this matter!" Fang Yongping's expression was very indifferent, "I hope you don't make any irrational doubts and speculations before you finally find conclusive evidence! If you must get an answer from me, then I can solemnly tell you that I have not and will not authorize your subordinates to do anything in the future! Otherwise, what do I want you to do?!"

"But...... I don't understand, why did you promote Sun Kai to project manager?"

"At least I originally thought that Sun Kai was the hero of the pangolin bid this time, and the meritorious ones should be rewarded and promoted!" Fang Yongping paused, and then said, "However, it seems that I misjudged him......! You can do it!"
