Chapter 412 Irritable Man
"They’re considering providing us with funds, but there’s a condition. You’d be the best one to fulfill it, Xiaoyu. Think about it, if everyone didn’t get their wages and you managed to get them, wouldn’t that be a great deed?"
The Factory Director beat around the bush, but eventually got to the point.
Suddenly, Suizi spoke up:
"Well, if our Jingting fails to do that, wouldn’t he be the villain of the whole factory?"
"Uh, well, um, Zhu, you’re young, bold and unafraid. How could you possibly fail?" The Factory Director was left speechless by Suizi’s sharp question.
"My wife is right, Director. Considering my youth and lack of experience, being suddenly assigned such a heavy responsibility may not be suitable. This issue should be handled by a respected and experienced leader like you."
Jingting smoothly passed the buck, making it clear he was not taking the bait.
Seeing the couple persistently avoiding responsibility, the Factory Director’s face suddenly darkened; his voice became noticeably more severe.
"Xiaoyu, you can’t just avoid all problems. After all, you’re our Deputy Factory Director. When issues arise, a leader must step up. Otherwise, why do we need you?"
"Oh, playing the official card now?" After Jingting finished his light-hearted comment, his expression also turned grim. In a voice colder than the Factory Director’s, he questioned, "You think I’m scared of you?"
No matter how hard or soft the Factory Director played, Jingting didn’t buy it.
