Chapter 238: I forgot

~7 min read 1,348 words

"It must be Gu Group's fault!" Gu Lianxing said firmly.

She believed in Shen Ci. Since Shen Ci had opened this mouth to her, she wouldn't change her mind for no reason, and even less would she not reveal a hint of news to her about the follow-up matters.

This must be because she felt wronged. According to Shen Ci's character, as long as the Gu family offered an opportunity, she would appreciate the Gu family's kindness regardless of whether the matter succeeded or not, rather than having her own father run over to ask her about these things like this.

Gu Shangyou could hear that his daughter was angry, and he was even angrier than his daughter.

"Alright, darling, Dad will definitely figure this out. If it's convenient, can you give Dad a contact number for Shen Ci?"

Gu Lianxing held the phone, her small face puffed up with anger. She really wanted to say "not convenient" willfully, but reason told her that one side was her father and the other side was her best friend. If there was a misunderstanding in the middle, it was better to resolve it, or at least let her father apologize to Shen Ci.

So she muttered unwillingly: "I'll send you her phone number."

Jiang Lingchuan stood by and watched Gu Lianxing make the call. Although he heard a few words, he didn't know what had happened. Seeing Gu Lianxing's bad face, he said to the coach: "Coach, let's stop here for today, thank you for your hard work."

The coach breathed a deep sigh of relief when he heard this, nodded, and then looked at Gu Lianxing with a complicated look before turning and leaving.

He really wanted to advise this girl to give up learning to drive.

On the other side, Gu Group Technical Department Supervisor Li Xiaofeng and Technical Group 1 Leader Hao Peng arrived at the door of the chairman's office. Neither of them knew what had happened, but being called to the office by the chairman personally must be an important matter.

"Brother-in-law, I'm a bit nervous. I've never reported work to the chairman in person." Hao Peng's nervousness was all on his face, his little face pale.

"Don't be nervous, maybe it's a good thing." Li Xiaofeng was relatively calm, but he was also muttering in his heart, going through all the projects that the technical department had completed relatively well recently in his mind.

Hao Peng bit his lip uncertainly. A good thing personally said by the chairman? That must be a very good thing!

Neither of them had a bottom in their hearts, but no one thought it was related to the project that didn't meet back then, because Hao Peng had completely forgotten about this matter.

After doing psychological construction at the door for a long time, Li Xiaofeng knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Gu Shangyou's voice came out faintly. The voice was cold and low, making their hearts tremble, but it was too late to hesitate and think more. Li Xiaofeng pushed the door open directly.

"Chairman, are you looking for us?" Li Xiaofeng walked into the office and opened his mouth, pretending to be calm.

Hao Peng followed silently behind, not daring to speak, just wanting to lower his presence.

Gu Shangyou was sitting on the black leather sofa in the middle, his face covered with a layer of angry frost: "Supervisor Li, do you know why I called you here?"

This opening remark caught Li Xiaofeng off guard: "I, I don't know..."

At this moment, he started to go through the mistakes made by the technical department recently again, thinking there were no big mistakes, just some small episodes in technology, nothing that could alarm the chairman to come and question them personally.

But the chairman's face was really ugly, which was not a sign of a good thing.

"Chairman, is there anything the technical department didn't do well? Please criticize and point it out, we will definitely correct it."

Whatever the mistake, admit it first.

Gu Shangyou sneered when he heard this, his gaze passing over Li Xiaofeng to look at Hao Peng: "You are Hao Peng?"

Being suddenly named, Hao Peng raised his head abruptly, his eyes full of panic: "Yes, Chairman, I am technical department Group 1 Leader Hao Peng."

"You tell me why I called you here."

The reason Gu Shangyou did this was to know how derelict these two people could be, daring not to take the work he arranged personally to heart, or even completely forgetting it.

Hao Peng didn't remember this matter originally, and now that he was nervous again, he couldn't think of anything, shaking his head in confusion: "I don't know either."

"Heh..."

Gu Shangyou was furious to laughter, looking at the two and nodding lightly: "Good, both don't know."

Only to see him slowly stand up from the sofa, walk to Li Xiaofeng and stand still: "Supervisor Li, I personally entrusted you with a matter before the New Year. There is a project team that wants to conduct code testing with Gu Group. Do you still remember this matter?"

Li Xiaofeng nodded repeatedly when he heard this: "Chairman, I remember this matter. I immediately assigned this task to project Group 1, which is Hao Peng's responsibility."

Hao Peng's heart "thumped." Before he could react, Li Xiaofeng had already turned his head to look at him and asked: "You didn't report this project to me later either. Did you not contact the other party or did the test fail?"

"This..." Hao Peng opened his mouth, but didn't know how to quibble, and could only say truthfully: "Didn't see the other party's people."

"Didn't see?" Li Xiaofeng was also shocked, anxiously: "Chairman, maybe there was a problem with the coordination between the two sides. I will go to contact the other party to meet immediately."

Hao Peng lowered his head with a guilty face, the details of that day floating faintly in his mind.

At first, the other party took the initiative to contact them and set a time, but because Group 1 was proofreading a set of new code that morning, he didn't go downstairs to meet the other party on time, nor did he send anyone to inform them, and even less did he apologize and try to retain them afterwards.

He let the other party leave Gu Group in a fit of anger because of being neglected.

The matter ended abruptly, and there was no follow-up, because he thought that an eight-person group would definitely not dare to miss this opportunity of Gu Group, and would definitely bow their heads first afterwards.

So he let the other party go, thinking that he could wait for them to come back, but as he waited, he forgot about this matter!

Gu Shangyou didn't listen to Li Xiaofeng's words, but looked at Hao Peng and asked: "Hao Peng, you say, why didn't you meet the other party? Did the other party not come?"

"Came, came." Hao Peng didn't dare to lie.

Li Xiaofeng was shocked again, anxiously: "They came, why didn't you see them?"

Hao Peng looked like a pitiful person who had done something wrong, and whispered: "I was busy at the time, didn't take care of them, and let them wait for a while. As a result, the other party got angry and left."

He didn't lie in this statement, but he omitted many details unfavorable to himself.

For example, he didn't notify the other party that they needed to wait for a while, and for another example, his indifferent attitude after the other party left, and even said things like "Who's to blame for not cherishing the opportunity given? Do you really think Gu Group's project team is very free?"

Li Xiaofeng was speechless after hearing this, anxious and angry: "You... why didn't you mention it to me at all?"

This is a job arranged by the chairman!

Hao Peng said with a bitter face that he was about to cry: "I forgot." ===== CHAPTER 239 =====
