Chapter 189 Angry
"Mr. Duan, you don't know that there are huge problems here! Not only is the cement of poor quality, but even the steel bars used in the tunnel are low-quality steels that don't meet the required standards at all! Only the materials used for the outer layer are barely up to standard, but other parts do not meet the requirements!"
"We also checked other parts of the entertainment city that have already been built, and there are no such problems. I guess the shoddy workmanship started from here in the tunnel."
"Luckily we discovered it early! If we let them get away with it so easily, when the project is completed and officially opened in the future, it will definitely bring huge safety hazards to tourists who come to visit! If something unexpected happens at that time, the consequences are simply unimaginable, and I'm afraid it will cause a disaster!"
"Humph, this Yu Kang Company is really unreliable! It's obviously a small company that has not yet gone public, how can it take on such a huge project? We really shouldn't have reached a cooperation agreement with such an unknown small workshop in the first place!"
"In my opinion, they took over our project with bad intentions. They just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to cut corners and make some unscrupulous money!"
"Boss Duan, after some discussion, we all agree that we should immediately terminate the contract with Yu Kang Company and order them to compensate us for all the losses we have suffered as a result!"
"Yes, we absolutely cannot cooperate with a black-hearted company like Mr. Duan."
Qiao Jingyu sat at the conference table, listening to the speeches of the people in the video. Her face became paler and paler, as if she had lost all the blood color. Her hands, which were originally placed on her legs, were now tightly clenched into fists, and her nails were deeply embedded in her palms, but she did not feel any pain at all.
She was extremely anxious and eager to gain a last glimmer of hope for Yukang Company. However, her throat seemed to be blocked by something, so she couldn't even utter a word of plea.
At this moment, Duan Yuchen's cold and low voice suddenly sounded on one side of the conference room: "I said that the responsibility must be held accountable to specific people!" His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, sweeping straight at everyone present.
"Who is responsible for purchasing the materials used in the construction? Why is there such a serious phenomenon of cutting corners? Is there someone secretly directing this? Have these questions been investigated clearly?" Duan Yuchen's tone was so cold that it made people feel chilled.
The entire conference room fell silent instantly, and everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the face. Duan Yuchen's facial features were clearly defined, as if they were carefully carved by a master sculptor. Due to the previous injury, his lips were slightly pale, which added a bit of coldness and sharpness. His face was as gloomy as water, and he said coldly: "I will only give you five days. After five days, you must give me a detailed and accurate investigation result!"
Everyone was silent for a while, and finally someone mustered up the courage to ask carefully: "So... should we continue to cooperate with Yu Kang Company?" This question was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly breaking the depressing atmosphere at the scene. Everyone raised their heads and cast their eyes on Duan Yuchen, waiting for his answer.
After hearing this, Qiao Jingyu looked at Duan Yuchen nervously.
"If Yukang Company can come up with a satisfactory explanation and solution, our cooperation can continue as usual; but if they can't do this, the contract will be terminated immediately!" The man's words were cold and resolute, without any emotion, like an extremely heavy hammer, ruthlessly smashing down on Qiao Jingyu's fragile heart.
At this moment, Qiao Jingyu was expecting Duan Yuchen to come out and speak for her and help her. After all, she knew very well that Yukang Company had indeed made an unforgivable mistake in this incident. Moreover, from an objective point of view, there was nothing wrong with Duan Yuchen's vigorous and resolute handling of the matter. However, even so, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart - she hoped that Duan Yuchen would be able to show mercy to her father for the sake of their relationship and give Yukang Company a chance.
Unfortunately, reality is always cruel. Duan Yuchen did not act as she wished. Facing this result, although Qiao Jingyu sincerely admired Duan Yuchen's courage and determination, she still couldn't suppress a faint sadness in her heart.
She bit her lips tightly, trying her best to suppress the tears that were about to burst out and the unbearable sour feeling in her nose. In the end, Qiao Jingyu could only silently lower her head and bury it deep in her chest, just like a child who made a mistake and was waiting for punishment from an adult.
The meeting was finally over. Duan Yuchen gently closed the computer cover and took a long breath. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Qiao Jingyu standing up suddenly. She looked respectful and said softly, "Third brother, thank you very much for saving me today. If you need me in the future, I will repay you for saving my life today, even if it means risking my life."
Although Qiao Jingyu knew that the third brother in front of her was blind and could not see what she was doing at the moment, she still bowed deeply and respectfully to Duan Yuchen. Then, she stood up and said slowly: "I will not bother you any more. I will leave now."
After saying that, Qiao Jingyu turned and walked towards the door. However, just as she passed Duan Yuchen, a big hand suddenly reached out and tightly grasped her slender wrist. Then, a deep and magnetic voice sounded in her ear: "Are you angry?"
Qiao Jingyu was stunned and thought to herself: It was the Yukang Company that was wrong first, so why should I be angry? But for some reason, she felt a sense of indescribable grievance deep in her heart. She raised her head slightly, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst out, and tried to make her tone sound calm: "No."
"You are obviously angry." Duan Yuchen had a faint smile on his face, his voice gentle with a hint of doting.
Qiao Jingyu's tears fell because of his gentle attitude.
Sometimes he hugged her gently and wiped her tears, sometimes he was stern and merciless and wanted to terminate the contract with her father's company, and now he asked her with a gentle smile if she was angry.
Qiao Jingyu really couldn't figure out Duan Yuchen's thoughts.
Qiao Jingyu didn't like this feeling. She tried hard to break free from Duan Yuchen, but he held her tightly, so Qiao Jingyu tried even harder and cried with grievance, "Let me go..."
Duan Yuchen gently pulled Qiao Jingyu into his arms, "Jingyu..."
"Let me go!" Qiao Jingyu struggled hard in Duan Yuchen's arms.
