Translated by shi+ya of Exiled Rebels Scanlations
Having serious hangovers and inso, he felt as if his head was going to explode Lu Shang wasn't feeling any better than Li Sui; his face was as white as paper
After Aunt Lu served breakfast, she noticed that the two of them were especially quiet today—they didn't have a shred of coers touched as they reached for seconds, they backed away fro speed
Aunt Lu could sense the aardness in the air, but she had no idea what had occurred, so she just thought it was a tiny lovers' squabble Couples often ran into obstacles, this was nothing special in Aunt Lu's eyes Plus, the tere always close, so Aunt Lu wasn't worry about thely left the roos up soon
The outside temperature lowered day by day; the previous layer of snow had yet todown from the sky
Li Sui wasn't at his best, so hework When he finally finished all his work and returned hoht No-one was ho sounds Dinner was on the dining table, the plates still stea hot, but it seemed like no one had touched the was still not ho was, nor did he knohat Lu Shang was doing Li Sui was seldo, so this made him feel extremely uncomfortable—as if he had just lost a keepsake which he'd always kept by his side Li Sui wanted to call Lu Shang, so he pulled out his phone froht feel if he actually called He fidgeted with the phone for a while, feeling depressed, and eventually he decided to call Uncle Yuen instead
”He went to HaiNan Island for work” Uncle Yuen was a little shocked, he asked, ”Did he not bring you along?”
Not only did Lu Shang not bring Li Sui along, Lu Shang didn't even tell Li Sui he was going to the island Lu Shang was obviously avoiding hi the phone up, Li Sui stood in the empty house, his heart was just as eht, but the lights were still lit at the Golden Sands Shore project conference room In the room were a few project leaders, all of them were calm on the surface, but in truth, they were all extreht that such a tiny construction accident would bring Lu Shang here Not only that, Lu Shang called all the project accountants and ht nonetheless
Even if you looked at all the construction projects in the mainland, none would be coe projects with soYan was no exception, thewas to balance profit with the quality As long as the final results were okay, every side would benefit, so everyone would be happy Usually the higher ups won't be too harsh either, they'd tend to let these little things slide
T/N: I just know that a part of Lu Shang came since he's in a bad mood and he's here to blow off so personal e
It wasn't like Lu Shang didn't understand that, but he still decided to review everything out of the blue Lu Shang , and thatwas cracking down on the every culprit out for now, even considering the best, Lu Shang would find one to two to punish as a warning
In this freezing winter night, the people in charge were in the huge conference roo in fear that the unfortunate punish felt like continuing wasn't going to do any good, so he s the books won't be finished anytiot off the plane, and youto turned to hi at him coldly, then he said, ”The injured workers are still in critical condition now, but we still have no idea what caused it Rest? Maybe we should just go hoe first, then we can check what had happened, is that what you're suggesting?”
After Lu Shang said that, even Liu XingMing didn't dare to s said
”Yes”
Lu Shang continued, ”Call your faated co tied the coot mad, and he also seldoh he seemed distant and hard to approach, he treated all his e time, everyone had the misconception that he was a person of zero fury and was easy to talk to It was only today that they re Yan all on his own—and that was ten years ago when he was still very young A person with that kind of leadershi+p skills was definitely not so was easy-going only because he didn't have the leisure to deal with every little probleh, no one would stand a chance against hiation reached therecords, the picture becaht, everyone in the conference roo for the worst Finally, everyone only had tiredness and sleepiness left At long last, the accountant made a final conclusion, and that hen everyone woke up Lu Shang picked up the report, flipping through the pages, then he scoffed, throwing the stack of paper on the desk towards Liu XingMing
”Using such petty tricks”
Liu XingMing picked up the report; after seeing the contents, his face turned pale ”I will immediately contact the material suppliers,” he said
”There's no need to contact theet the hell out”
After finishi+ng the order, Lu Shang scanned everyone in the room, ”I don't knoho took the money The price doesn't matter, but the materials must be replaced After the construction is done, each and every one of you will have to sign for its co happens, everyone here will be responsible—no one can run away fro machine If I can't ensure the safety of the users, why build an araveyard”
Lu Shang's words were sharp, and everyone seated in the room was drenched in cold sweat The conference roo's phone vibrated, cutting into his speech
Lu Shang frowned; he picked up the phone and looked at the caller's ID For a split second, he froze
”Director Lu So, what suppliers are we changing to?” so secretly turned his phone off, then he said, ”Send out a notice, we are opening a public bid”
Li Sui waited for the whole night, yet he didn't get a reply to his call Li Sui had a hard-to-describe feeling—he was anxious, and at the same time, he orried It was as if he was a child who had done soh to the other
Li Sui didn't want to stop contacting Lu Shang, but he wouldn't dare contact hi For the next couple of days, Li Sui chose the tie hi daily stuff or nuisances ork as a pretext Unfortunately, the es he sent were like rocks thrown into the ocean, they sank and never returned
It was as if Lu Shang was intentionally ignoring him—no matter what Li Sui tried, he didn't succeed Li Sui couldn't but feel glu called Li Sui; he was inviting Li Sui over for dinner at the SiMa fa dinner or not didn't matter to Li Sui, but he was finally able to find someone whom he could talk to, and thatthe facts a little He told SiMa JingRong what had occurred through the phone, hoping for so what Li Sui had to say, SiMa JingRong laughed, ”Isn't it noret angry at all, and didn't care about it one bit as if nothing had happened, would you be happy with that?”
What SiMa JingRong said enlightened hi from you, that means he cares about you If he really just sees you as a kid he had just picked up, would he let you do that to hi thrown into a lake as fish bait if he wanted to”
