After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Chapter 564: Concealing the truth

With the help of Star Entertainment, Li Xuanbao invested in a film and television project - a low-budget movie.

The project is currently progressing smoothly. At this pace, it will be completed early next year and can be released in time for the National Day holiday next year.

For Li Xuanbao, this is her first attempt to enter the film and television entertainment industry.

During this period, Li Xuanbao really felt that her career was going smoothly. She was happy at work and her love life was even happier. She and He Zhizhou lived in harmony and their days were warm and sweet.

They have already put having children on the agenda.

And, more importantly, she has returned to her previous social circle. Although the Li family's connections played a role in this, it was mainly because of her own efforts that she was able to gain a foothold in that circle.

Now people see her not because she is the daughter of the family, but because of President Li!

Li Xuanbao felt that perhaps in a few years, even if she left the protection of the Li family, she would have enough confidence and ability to make herself the focus.

Li Xuanbao was wearing a safety helmet as she moved around the construction site. Project manager Rao introduced the project progress to her along the way.

She swept her eyes across the construction site, looking at the workers busy and orderly, and then looking at the buildings rising from the ground. To be honest, Li Xuanbao was very satisfied with the progress of the project.

The speed of progress this year is considered to be the best among similar projects. The main structure of the building in front of us has taken shape with a clear outline, and we can already get a glimpse of its future appearance.

Li Xuanbao walked forward, around a pile of sand. After walking a dozen steps, she suddenly stopped as if she was frozen.

A trace of doubt flashed across her face, as if she suddenly remembered something, and she quickly took several steps back.

She stood beside the pile of sand, first lowered her head to look at it carefully for a moment, then she squatted down, reached out to grab a handful of sand, and rubbed it with her fingers. Her face instantly became gloomy.

Li Xuanbao raised his eyes and looked straight at the project manager in front of him, his voice a little colder: "Where did you get this sand from?"

When project manager Zhao Quan saw Li Xuanbao's cold expression, his heart skipped a beat. He was inexplicably frightened. He suppressed his panic and stammered, "Mr. Li...Mr. Li, these are the materials we got from our partners."

Li Xuanbao stood up suddenly, stared at the project manager, and said word by word, "I'll give you one last chance. Where did you buy this sand from?"

Zhao Quan felt his breathing stagnate, his Adam's apple rolled, and he pretended to be calm, but his eyes dodged unconsciously, and he stammered, "Boss Li, what do you mean by this?"

Hearing that Zhao Quan was still being stubborn, Li Xuanbao let out a sarcastic sneer, full of disdain, "Do you think that I know nothing about building materials, and you want to play tricks under my nose and use this sea sand to get away with it?

Open your eyes and take a good look. This is the lowest quality sea sand! Do you think you have too much to live for using this kind of sand in high-rise buildings? You want to die, but I want to live well! "

After saying that, Li Xuanbao threw the handful of sea sand in his hand fiercely, then clapped his hands vigorously and stared at Zhao Quan, "Now, do you want to explain it to me here, or do you want me to call the police immediately and go to the police station to tell them?"

As he spoke, Li Xuanbao took out his cell phone from his pocket and pretended to make a call.

Li Xuanbao is not completely ignorant of the construction industry. The Li Group has a construction company under its name, and she once interned in a construction company.

It was precisely because she had some knowledge of the construction industry and was confident in it that she had the courage to compete with Li Jiawei for the project of old town renovation in Qionglin District.

If she really knew nothing about the construction industry, she would never rush into it. It's not like she has money but nowhere to invest.

Zhao Quan was frozen in place, now filled with regret. He never expected that the first time he had any evil thoughts, he would be caught red-handed by his boss. He instantly felt that his career might be ruined and his future was bleak.

Then he saw Li Xuanbao take out her cell phone and was about to make a call. Thinking she was really going to call the police, he quickly held her hand.

Zhao Quan's eyes were red, and he looked at Li Xuanbao pleadingly, his voice tearful and almost pleading: "Boss Li, I promise to tell the truth. Please just treat it as a momentary confusion. Can you please show some mercy and let me go?"

Li Xuanbao closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm himself down. When he opened his eyes again, his gaze fell on Xiang Zhaoquan's sweaty forehead, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't beg for mercy yet. Let me ask you, how much of this low-quality sea sand have you used?"

The project manager's Adam's apple rolled violently, and he swallowed nervously. His voice trembled and he stammered, "This... This entire building that has been built is made of this kind of sand."

These words were like a bolt from the blue, hitting Li Xuanbao instantly.

Instantly, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes, and everything around her began to spin. Her legs seemed to have lost their strength, and she stumbled several steps in place.

After she stood firm, Li Xuanbao's heart and eyes were filled with hatred. She stared at the man in front of her and almost squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "You are trying to kill me!" At this moment, she felt murderous intent surging in her heart and she wished she could cut the man in front of her into pieces. However, reason told her that impulse would not solve any problems.

Li Xuanbao suppressed the rage in her heart, closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm herself down. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were full of coldness: "Besides this sand, what else is there?"

Zhao Quan knew that he had no way out now, and the only option left was to confess.

So, he gritted his teeth and told Li Fei and Qi Baigang all the problematic building materials he had taken from them.

Li Xuanbao listened to the long shopping list reported by the project manager, and looked up at the building that had been built one-third of the way. She felt mixed emotions. She knew that she had to force herself to calm down at this moment, because every decision she made now was related to the life and death of the entire project.

At present, the pre-sale situation of the property has just started to improve and is gradually getting back on track.

However, once the quality problems of the project are exposed, all efforts will be in vain, the project will be completely declared a failure, and the huge amount of money invested by the company in the early stage will be lost.

At this moment, the first thought that flashed through Li Xuanbao's mind was not to call the police immediately, but to choose to conceal the matter and stabilize the situation first.

However, the reality was far more difficult than she had imagined. She knew in her heart that it was not easy to conceal such a thing.
