Chapter 38: Scary
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the end, Zhou Feng reluctantly agreed to work overtime. He looked at the dirty cement in his hands and wished he could find a place to take a shower.
However, when he thought about his salary, which was three times the market salary, he had no choice but to stick it out.
He lay low for four days before deciding to take action.
He thought that he would go crazy if things continued this way!
The night was dark and the wind was strong.
There were not many people supervising the work at night, so Zhou Feng took advantage of a break and went to the office where construction materials were placed.
With a flashlight, he found the quality test certificate in the drawer.
When he read the first sentence, he realized that something was wrong.
The materials left the factory last year!
Zhou Feng was puzzled as to why they would buy such cheap cement.
He wondered if the entire apartment block was made of such cement.
“Would the apartments still be fit to live in?” he thought.
He also realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly took out his phone to take a picture of the document.
None of the materials met the quality standards.
Even the list of materials was wrong. It looked like a list from a small factory.
Just as he was taking photos, footsteps approached.
Zhou Feng hurriedly hid behind a container.
The sound of the door being locked followed.
“Chairman Lu, don’t worry. We’ve already used those inferior materials to build a complete building. There won’t be any problems. In my opinion, there’s no difference in the quality of these materials.”
“Is this the voice of the contractor?” Zhou Feng wondered.
“Chairman Lu?”
Zhou Feng wondered if the contractor was on the phone with the boss of the Lu Corporation.
He held his breath.
“As long as we promote it well, I’m sure many people will choose to move in.”
The contractor sat on a chair and crushed his cigarette butt. He said, “Now, our company’s shortage of funds can be completely resolved. Even if customers want to cancel their purchases, we don’t have to refund them because they have signed a contract!”
He could not help laughing as he was saying this.
He was ready to let those idiots move in!
“I haven’t even finished building but people can’t wait for the launch date. I guarantee, this place will definitely sell very well, better than the previous ones.
It doesn’t matter if it’s dangerous or not. Have you forgotten? We used the same method to build apartments in those residential areas previously. Aren’t those people still living well now? They still don’t know that their homes will collapse at any time!
We’ve made a lot of money just using this method. I’m sure that the Lu Corporation will move another step forward in no time! I’ll be vigilant here. I’m sure there won’t be any problems!”
…
When Zhou Feng heard these words, his expression turned ugly.
“Let ordinary people live in dangerous apartments?” he thought.
“Isn’t that risking their lives?”
He did not know how long he had been squatting there. After making the call, the contractor smoked for a while before leaving.
By the time Zhou Feng stood up, his legs were numb.
He looked at his phone and muttered regretfully, “I forgot to record his conversation.”
He was so shocked that he forgot to do that.
If there was a recording, perhaps they could take down the Lu Corporation.
He shook his head. He did not think the Lu Corporation would be destroyed so easily.
He returned to the construction site slowly.
The contractor was already doing a headcount. Seeing how lazy Zhou Feng was, he said with slight dissatisfaction, “Where did you go? You haven’t been around for such a long time.”
“To the toilet.”
Zhou Feng’s nonchalant manner left him speechless again.
The contractor wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not.
He glanced at Zhou Feng and then at the other workers. “It’s almost dawn. You can go and rest for a while. Come back at noon.”
Zhou Feng did not intend to continue working.
Just as the contractor turned to leave, he said, “I want to resign.”
“What?!”
The contractor said in disbelief, “You’ve only been here for a few days. Don’t you want your salary?”
“My salary is dispensable anyway.
I think this place is haunted because I saw a black figure floating in the air when I went to the toilet. I was scared.”
He had obviously made this up.
But he did not mind scaring this black-hearted person before leaving.
The contractor shivered and looked around fearfully.
After confirming that no one was around, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“How is that possible?! Our place is very good! There can’t be ghosts in this world! If you don’t want your salary, you can leave if you want!”
He had wanted to threaten to withhold Zhou Feng’s salary, but when he heard what he said, he walked away without looking back!
“Damn it!” he said.
On the other side.
Lu Ming got the good news early in the morning. He immediately got someone to bring Zhou Feng to the office.
When he walked into the office, he saw Zhou Feng touching this and that, looking curious. When he heard the door open, he asked, “Is Wanke yours too?”
“Yes.”
Lu Ming sat in his chair and said, “Other than the incident of someone falling off the building, did you find out anything else?”
Over the phone, Zhou Feng only said that someone had died, leaving the rest for their face-to-face meeting.
“The materials are not up to standard, and even the previous apartments in some residential areas are dangerous…”
Zhou Feng told Lu Ming the results of his investigation and handed the evidence that he had captured to him.
“I think if ordinary people continue to live there, they will be exposed to physical and mental health risks. Boss, what do you want to do?”
[To deal with the Lu Corporation’s unscrupulous cutbacks, please make one of the following choices:
Option 1: Turn a blind eye. Reward: A halo for being both good and evil.
Option 2: Continue to expose them. Reward: The famous Themis Law Firm.
Option 3: File a lawsuit. Reward: Title ‘Good Person, Peaceful Life’.]
Lu Ming chose option two.
“I will handle this matter well. The Lu Corporation will not get away unscathed!” he said.
He wanted to attack the Lu Corporation and catch them off guard!
“The money has been transferred to your account. You should have received it by now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a message from the bank popped up on Zhou Feng’s phone. He looked at the amount in satisfaction, pleased to work for a boss who readily paid up and was not difficult to deal with.
“Welcome to working with me again.”
Lu Ming spread his hands and said, “I will look for you again…”
Before he could finish, the phone rang.
He answered the call.
“Boss, the arrangements have been made. Are you coming over now?”
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up, he looked at Zhou Feng, who was sitting on the sofa, and asked, “Are you going to the hospital with me?”
“Who are you going to visit?”
Zhou Feng was obviously uninterested and asked out of sheer boredom.
“Li Rong’s daughter—Li Xiaomei. Are you going?”
