Chapter 92
It was Manager Choi Min-hee.
“Sigh…”
“Manager Choi, you said it went well. But is this what you call well? How can Hyunil say they can’t do it because of us? That’s nonsense!”
“…”
Executive Director Jo Chan-young sighed as Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan yelled at him.
Manager Choi Min-hee did not make any excuses.
She had already exined several times, but they wouldn’t listen. There was nothing she could do.
She silently looked ahead and just listened.
That seemed to provoke Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan, who pointed his finger at her with a red face.
“Did you act like this at the meeting too? No, did you take a newbie to such an important meeting?”
“Team Leader, I told you before. Yoo-hyun has nothing to do with this.”
Manager Choi Min-hee immediately defended Yoo-hyun when he was mentioned.
Their bosses were trying to avoid responsibility and me their subordinates, even though Hyunil was being unreasonable.
Well.
She could understand that to some extent.
She was the one in charge, after all.
But suddenly they said it was wrong to take a newbie to the meeting!
Was that something a team leader should say?
“Hey! Don’t re at me!”
“Hey, Team Leader, why are you doing this? Manager Choi is trying to figure it out right now. Yoo-hyun has nothing to do with this.”
Assistant Manager Kim Hyun-min intervened and stopped the angry Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan.
Director Lee Kyung-hoon and Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan were just watching with sneers.
Maybe that’s why?
Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan got even more heated.
“No, Assistant Manager Kim! Is this your ce to butt in? Why can’t you tell when to step in and when not to?”
“No, I’m the part leader here. Where else should I step in if not here?”
“Stop it. Just stop.”
The noisy scene was settled by a word from Executive Director Jo Chan-young.
He put his hand on his forehead, as if he had a headache.
Yoo-hyun, who was watching from afar, clicked his tongue.
They were really ying around.
He expected it, but it looked more childish in reality.
From the person in charge to the sales team, they all gathered around and harassed Manager Choi Min-hee.
The team leader who joined in was even more ridiculous.
“Yoo-hyun, no.”
Deputy Park Seung-woo, who noticed Yoo-hyun, smiled and crossed his arms to make an X sign.
He meant not to go there.
But Yoo-hyun answered with a smile.
Are you scared?
No way.
Yoo-hyun smiled faintly.
He heard Executive Director Jo Chan-young’s voice.
“Manager Choi, tell me the truth. Did Yoo-hyun really act rudely at the Hyunil meeting?”
“No. He never did.”
“Then why did they say that?”
There was a lot of anger in his low voice.
He was too flustered to make a proper judgment.
It didn’t make sense for apany to change a contract because of bad attitude at a meeting betweenpanies.
But he was so impatient that he was swayed by what he heard from the customer.
It was a typical example of what a leader shouldn’t show.
Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan also chimed in.
“Manager Choi, that’s why I told you not to take a newbie with you.”
“Team Leader.”
“Hey! Don’t interrupt me when I’m talking.”
Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan added.
He was the one who confirmed that he should go on a business trip.
He was trying to score points in front of his boss by crushing his team member.
He could never be a good leader like that.
It was the worst choice as a team leader.
Manager Choi Min-hee and Assistant Manager Kim Hyun-min were about to open their mouths at the same time.
That’s when Yoo-hyun stepped forward and said.
“I never acted rudely.”
“…”
“Do you know where you heard that?”
It was like jumping into a tiger’s den.
Everyone looked at him with surprise, but he had a calm expression.
He didn’t look guilty at all, so they didn’t know what to say to him.
Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan stepped forward with anger.
“We got a directint from Hyunil’s sales team. They said your attitude was bad.”
“That’s impossible. I have no reason or power to do that as a newbie.”
“Huh, really. You’re bold.”
“I’m just telling the truth. I can’t make up something that didn’t happen.”
He looked at them with a rxed attitude, even though he should have apologized with his head down!
He even looked confident.
Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan’s forehead wrinkled.
“Director, if you need me, I’ll call Hyunil’s person in charge.”
“Wait. Let’s hear a little more.”
“There’s no value in hearing more.”
“Hey.”
Executive Director Jo Chan-young stopped Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan.
If he judged rationally, Yoo-hyun’s words didn’t seem wrong.
But there was a mention of bad attitude in the story that came from the customer.
He needed to confirm the exact cause and effect.
Executive Director Jo Chan-young nodded and Yoo-hyun said.
“As I said, I was polite. I didn’t get any criticism at the meeting either.”
“If they felt that way, then you did something wrong. They are the ones who judge that. Am I wrong?”
“Yes. That could be possible.”
Everyone had question marks in their heads at Yoo-hyun’s calm answer.
Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan spoke arrogantly.
“Look at this. He’s so stubborn, he’s ruining everything.”
“They must be trying to find fault with our self-developed navigation system.”
Manager Choi Min-hee quickly countered as Executive Director Jo Chan-young shook his head.
“That’s not the problem, Manager Choi. Ourpany suffered damage because of this, and someone has to take responsibility.”
“Then I should take responsibility as the person in charge, why are you ming Yoo-hyun?”
“Of course, you should take responsibility too.”
“Hah.”
Manager Choi Min-hee smiled bitterly.
She had every reason to.
The people who should share the responsibility were attacking her like this.
Yoo-hyun decided to wrap up the situation at this point.
“Assistant Manager Song, do you know who pointed out my rude attitude?”
“Is that important?”
“I think there might be a misunderstanding.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan at Yoo-hyun’s words.
He could have avoided answering, but he had no reason not to.
“He said his name was Assistant Manager Jo Chi-hoon in their sales team. I got a call from their part leader.”
“Really? The atmosphere wasn’t bad when I was with him.”
“Wow. You can’t even read the mood. How did you get trained in the team? Tsk tsk…”
Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan, who was scolded by Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan, who was lower in rank than him, only blushed.
Of course, he couldn’t say anything back.
This was also a fatal mistake as a team leader.
Assistant Manager Kim Hyun-min, who had been watching quietly, stepped forward.
“Assistant Manager Song, you’ve been wrong since before. Do you have any evidence?”
“Evidence? I got a phone call. What more evidence do you need?”
“Then let us hear the recording or something. I don’t think Yoo-hyun is lying.”
“Can you back up what you’re saying?”
“Yes. I can back it up. Do you want to bet?”
Assistant Manager Kim Hyun-min, who was rather scolding his team member, was more like a team leader.
A team leader should at least listen to his team member first, rather than someone he didn’t even know.
Of course, Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan never backed down.
“Assistant Manager Kim, I’m just telling you what I heard from the customer. Do you have any evidence that it’s not true?”
“If neither of you have any, then it’smon sense to trust your team member first, right?”
“It’s such an important matter. Don’t you think so?”
Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan’s eyes red at Yoo-hyun, demanding him to admit his mistake.
Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan was more confident with Director Lee Kyung-hoon and Executive Director Jo Chan-young behind him.
He had gone this far, so there was no turning back.
Yoo-hyun nodded his head obediently with a pinch of MSG added.
“It is an important matter.”
“Yes. You should take responsibility for it.”
“Of course. Since it’s an important matter, we should clearly assign responsibility for right and wrong.”
“You talk well. So, what are you going to do?”
It was obvious that they should sort out right and wrong.
When Yoo-hyun agreed with his rare right words, Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan’s eyebrows narrowed.
He felt uneasy at his too rxed expression for such a serious situation.
That’s when Yoo-hyun slowly opened his mouth.
“This might help us sort out right and wrong.”
“What is that?”
Yoo-hyun opened his phone folder and answered Executive Director Jo Chan-young’s question.
“It’s the conversation with Assistant Manager Jo Chi-hoon of Hyunil’s sales team.”
“…”
“Let’s listen to it.”
Then he pressed the button without hesitation.
-Yes. I’m really sorry about what happened to Yoo-hyun. Our part leader suddenly changed his mind…
-So it’s true that our Hansung side made the proposal first.
-That’s what I heard. So I think it would be better for both sides to reach an agreement amicably this time.
“…”
As soon as the yback of the recorded conversation ended, silence fell.
The first one to break it was Manager Choi Min-hee.
She raised her voice by two tones and cornered Executive Director Jo Chan-young.
“Director, look at this! Someone is bribing them behind our backs.”
“Huh, who are you saying that about?”
“Who was the one who said he talked to their part leader on the phone?”
“What? Are you ming me?”
Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan sneered as Manager Choi Min-hee rolled her eyes.
Director Lee Kyung-hoon, who had been serious, intervened and suggested to Executive Director Jo Chan-young.
“Director, this doesn’t seem like something we should do here. If there’s a mistake, we should make it clear.”
“That’s right.”
“But, not an internal audit. You know our situation right now.”
“…”
“I’ll check with their team again, since it seems like Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan is responsible for this part.”
It would be a hundred times better to entrust a fish to a cat.
But Executive Director Jo Chan-young epted that again.
“Okay. Let’s handle it that way. You work hard on this.”
“Director!”
“That’s not right!”
Assistant Manager Kim Hyun-min and Manager Choi Min-hee shouted at the same time, but Executive Director Jo Chan-young shook his head.
“Enough. That’s it.”
“Yes. I’ll handle it without any trouble. I’m sorry.”
“Finish it well.”
Director Lee Kyung-hoon bowed his head politely and thenforted Team Leader Oh Jae-hwan, who was next to him.
“I’ll keep that in mind. And Team Leader Oh, good job.”
“No, thank you, Director.”
Then he turned his head sharply.
Yoo-hyun saw the vile smile on his lips.
He didn’t care about anyone else.
He was either clueless about the internal politics that surrounded the position of the director, or he had some weakness that was obvious.
Director Lee Kyung-hoon thought hard with his eyebrows furrowed.
He could almost hear the two people thinking.
Childish people.
Yoo-hyun hid his amused expression and calmly said.
“I’ll share the recording file with you right away. The whole content is longer. It also has Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan’s name in it…”
“What are you trying to do now!”
“Stop!”
When he added a little MSG, Assistant Manager Song Ho-chan bit the bait himself.
