380 Infiltrating
“Zhou Hao is really something. After using you guys, he’s still thinking of setting you up,” Chu Ning secretly sighed.
It was very likely that one of these people had reported the construction site.
“You can go through the legal process to appeal against President Chu, but now you’re so brazenly asking for money. Do you know how long your sentence for extortion will be if President Chu gives it to you?” The chief contractor didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
The chief contractor’s words had a great effect.
The injured man had already left in a car with the help of his wife, and the rest of the people who were watching the show suddenly fell silent after hearing the chief contractor’s words.
Although they were greedy, they were not stupid.
Knowing that they would not gain anything if they continued to take up time there, the crowd quickly dispersed.
Only Chu Ning, the chief contractor, and the technician were left at the construction site.
“Let’s talk inside.” Chu Ning motioned with her hand, and the three of them walked into the near-completed first-floor hall of the Soaring Clouds Group.
“President Chu, we won’t be able to start work for a long time,” the chief contractor said with a bitter smile.
“It doesn’t matter if we can’t start work, but we must ensure that there won’t be any more accidents. The people who are targeting me are not simple. I’m afraid that there will be conflicts within the construction team,” Chu Ning said with a frown.
She had a feeling that Zhou Hao’s methods would not be so simple.
“President Chu, are you saying that there might be problems with my construction team?” The chief contractor’s expression changed. This was no small matter.
“I’m only saying it’s possible. You have to be careful.” Chu Ning felt that she herself had to start watching more closely.
Chu Ning had not met Zhou Hao yet, but a silent battle had already begun.
This was the strongest opponent Chu Ning had met ever since she had transmigrated.
In an instant, she was in a precarious situation.
Chu Ning even believed that, if the owner of this building had not been Zhou Wei, there would be even more trouble awaiting her.
“Okay, President Chu, I got it.” The chief contractor nodded his head solemnly.
“I still have some things to deal with, so I’ll be leaving first. If you need anything, call me anytime.” Chu Ning turned and left.
“President Chu seems to have provoked a powerful person…” After Chu Ning left, the chief contractor and the technician did not leave.
“We’re just ordinary people. We can’t participate in the battle between these people, but we can choose to leave. The most important thing is to play it safe,” the technician slowly said.
“Are we just going to end our collaboration with President Chu like this? President Chu’s offer is so high, and what we’re doing is immoral,” the chief contractor said reluctantly.
“If you really think it’s immoral, you could have told President Chu everything that happened this morning. But you didn’t say it. Your heart has already made the decision for you,” the technician spoke again unhurriedly.
“Old Fang, you and I have been working at construction sites for more than 20 years, right?” the technician suddenly asked.
“Yes, the first time we met, we’d just left school,” the chief contractor said with a bitter smile as he slowly lit up a cigarette.
“For so many years, although our scale is not large, we have always been very stable, all thanks to our being cautious. This morning, that person didn’t sound like he was negotiating with us. You should be able to tell that he has someone to rely on; someone is backing him.”
The technician dusted off his clothes. “You know, we’re like the dust on these clothes, and they’re the owners of the clothes. One day, when the wind comes, we’ll be lucky enough to follow it for a while, and that’ll be enough. The fate of dust will eventually be to return to the soil.”
“I know, but I’m still a little unwilling. President Chu is so young, her future limitless… I really can’t accept this!” The chief contractor took a deep puff of his cigarette, and his expression gradually blurred under the smoke.
“Forget it. We both have families; we’re not young anymore.” After the technician finished speaking, he stood and walked out.
‘This aggrieving life…” The chief contractor stubbed out his cigarette and likewise left.
Zhou Hao had already sent someone to the construction site in the morning and explained the purpose of his visit to the contractor.
In the face of profit, there was nothing that could not be sold.
The kind-hearted Chu Ning would not know that her guess was wrong.
The initiator of this farce was her very trusted partner…
Zhou Wei was not at the top floor of the Soaring Clouds Group. After Chu Ning made the call, she stood quietly in the corridor of the Soaring Clouds Group and waited.
