Chapter 409: Is Fetching Some Documents Really That Hard?

Originally, Shen Congjun had already caused the factory considerable trouble because of his own mistake, but now the Lin Muni he had vouched for couldn't even be found during working hours.

And at such an important time, he had the entire factory leadership waiting in the conference room.

This time, factory secretary Cheng Weiguo could no longer hold back the anger in his heart: "Vice Factory Director Shen, shouldn't you give the factory an explanation for this matter?"

He also no longer had the earlier thought of covering up his dereliction of duty: "Such an important document, and you actually forgot to bring it back—don't you know the factory needs it for today's meeting?

This is a serious dereliction of duty on your part.

But now, just great—the person you strongly recommended is needed, yet not even a shadow of them can be found. What do you take this place for, your own home?"

Shen Congjun was now regretting it to his very marrow; he had truly lost his mind.

Secretary Cheng's face was dark: "Vice Factory Director Shen, where did you leave the thing? I'll send someone to go with you to fetch it right now."

The moment these words came out, Shen Congjun's mind went 'buzz'—he was done for.

If people found out he had left something so important at his own eldest sister-in-law's house, his future would likely be over—no, his future would likely be utterly destroyed.

Thinking of this, his expression even began to twist.

He forgot that Secretary Cheng was still waiting for his reply. It was Vice Factory Director Gu beside him who gave him a push, and only then did he come back to his senses: "Um, Secretary Cheng, I'll go fetch it myself, no need to make such a big fuss."

Where would Secretary Cheng listen to him now: "Shen Congjun, I'm not discussing this with you."

Having said that, he looked at Vice Factory Director Gu and the General Office Director sitting across from him: "Let Vice Factory Director Gu and Director Sun accompany you on this trip. To be safe, have the Security Section send two people along as well—get the document back as soon as possible."

Vice Factory Director Gu and Director Chen hurriedly stood up and said in unison: "Alright."

After speaking, Director Chen looked at Shen Congjun: "Vice Factory Director Shen, let's go."

Shen Congjun's face was one of utter hopelessness: It's over, it's over; today his face is completely lost.

No matter how he resisted, Secretary Cheng meant one thing—fetch the documents back as quickly as possible.

Vice Factory Director Gu and Director Chen stood on Shen Congjun's left and right. By then the Security Section people had also arrived; the four of them formed a surrounding formation, as if escorting a criminal.

It made Shen Congjun all the more feel like dying.

After this matter, who knew what kind of rumors would spread through the factory; what authority would he even have left in the factory from now on.

What none of them expected was that even at this point, Shen Congjun was still trying to persuade them: "It's so hot out, don't trouble yourselves by following me. I'll go on my own; it'll be quick."

Director Chen was a straightforward person: "Vice Factory Director Shen, we're not afraid of the trouble, so stop making things hard on us. It's better to go fetch the documents quickly."

The two people from the Security Section who had followed along, upon hearing his words, grew more alert. After all, those documents had just been obtained from the ministry; if they were lost, not only would Vice Factory Director Shen be held accountable, but the others would likely also be implicated, and nobody would have an easy time of it.

At this moment, a tall and thin Security Section member following behind frowned and said: "Is fetching some documents really that hard for you? You keep blocking us again and again—could there be something you're hiding?"

The moment these words came out, how would Shen Congjun dare cause any more trouble: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I was just thinking—"

Seeing everyone's impatient faces, he really couldn't keep making things up, and could only honestly lead the way in front.

But the further they walked, the more puzzled everyone became. At this moment Director Chen spoke up again: "Vice Factory Director Shen, aren't we going to fetch the documents? But this isn't the road to the family quarters?"
