Having worked in the construction industry for so many years, Chen Anye is very familiar with the ins and outs of the building materials field.

He only took a quick look and he knew that what Qi Chenguang said was true.

This realization was like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, sending a chill down his spine.

He carefully examined the steel bars, his face became increasingly gloomy, and finally, in a rage, he threw a steel bar in his hand to the ground.

He couldn't bear the blame, and he gnashed his teeth and cursed: "Those bastards from Xishi Construction Investment! If we use such materials, we will all be in jail if something goes wrong! I'm going to call Gong Yifei right now and ask them what they are up to..."

Before he finished speaking, he took out his cell phone and wanted to call Gong Yifei, the CEO of Xishi Construction Investment. However, just as he was about to press the dial button, Xu Anna quickly reached out and held his hand.

Chen Anye looked at Xu Anna with a puzzled look on his face, and said coldly, "Boss Xu, what do you mean by stopping me?"

Xu Anna didn't care about Chen Anye's attitude towards her, and just said: "This matter must be reported to Mr. Li first, we can't make a decision on our own."

Hearing this, Chen Anye gradually calmed down and stared at Xu Anna.

He knew that Xu Xuanna was Mr. Li's confidant. Although he was higher in rank than her, if he hastily rejected her proposal on matters involving Mr. Li, it would probably cause unnecessary trouble.

After a moment of silence, Chen Anye slowly put down his phone and said in a deep voice: "Okay, then let's do as you say. Report to General Manager Li as soon as possible and see what she says."

Xu Anna breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to pat the dust off her palm, then took out her cell phone from her pocket, walked to the side, and called Li Jiawei.

Li Jiawei saw the caller ID and answered the call with a tap of her fingertips: "Anna, why are you calling me at this time? Is there something going on?"

The receiver heard Xu Anna's slightly heavy exhalation. After a brief pause, she said solemnly, "Boss Li, there's something wrong at the construction site."

Li Jiawei, who was originally leaning on the back of the chair, straightened her back instantly, and her voice was tinged with anxiety: "A worker was injured? Is it serious?"

"It's not the workers' fault." Xu Anna hastily denied, with an undisguised anxiety in her tone, "It was substandard products that were mixed into the building materials sent by Xishi Construction Investment."

Li Jiawei heard Anna say this, tapping her fingertips unconsciously on the table and asked, "When was it discovered? What was the specific situation?"

Anna Xu reported: "Last night, Xishi Construction Investment transported the building materials to the construction site overnight. During the lunch break today, a worker noticed something unusual and came to report the situation to me.

I came to check and found that unqualified products were mixed with qualified products, which could not be discovered without careful inspection.

These products include steel bars, bricks and sand!"

Li Jiawei pinched her nose and rubbed it back and forth. Without hesitation, she gave the order: "Stop all construction immediately. All parts that have been completed today must be redone. Also, contact the police immediately to intervene in the investigation."

There was a brief silence in the receiver, and Xu Anna spoke carefully: "Mr. Li, there is no problem with stopping work and rectifying. But once the police are called and the news spreads, the outside world may over-interpret it. I am afraid it will have a negative impact on the company's reputation..."

Li Jiawei sneered, "There are so many workers on the construction site. Some of them have been working there for more than ten years. I'm afraid they have touched so many building materials that I can't even count them all.

It is impossible to hide the adulteration of building materials from them. Can you guarantee that these people will not leak the information to others?

Instead of waiting for public opinion to ferment and respond passively, we should call the police first and take the initiative.

Once the police investigation results come out, we will immediately issue an official statement to explain the whole story and give the owner an explanation.”

She paused, her fingertips tapping the table, making a crisp sound: "When dismantling the completed part, the whole process must be recorded and archived, and every link must be recorded.

In addition, contact an authoritative appraisal agency immediately, send the problematic building materials for inspection, and obtain a legally binding appraisal report. These will be crucial evidence in the future.”

Anna Xu held the phone and asked, "Mr. Li, what about Xishi Construction Investment?"

Li Jiawei said in a calm tone, with an unquestionable determination: "Don't worry about Xishi Construction Investment. I will communicate directly with Gong Yifei and ask them to give us an explanation!"

Xu Anna said "yes", and after hanging up the phone, she found that Chen Anye and Qi Chenguang's eyes were all on her.

She stepped forward quickly and said solemnly, "Boss Li has instructed us to call the police immediately and stop all work. All the work that has been completed today must be torn down and started over again."

Chen Anye frowned, his voice full of anxiety: "What about Xishi Construction Investment? Aren't you going to hold them accountable?"

"Ms. Li said that she personally negotiated with Mr. Gong." Xu Anna responded briefly.

Chen Anye stroked his phone and stared at her: "As for calling the police, do you want to call or should I?"

Xu Anna pondered for a moment, looked at Chen Anye, and said, "You make this call. After all, you are the person in charge of Global Construction." After saying this, she looked at Chen Anye.

Chen Anye looked at Xu Anna, picked up his phone and called the police, briefly describing to them the situation of adulteration of building materials at the construction site.

While the police were coming over, Chen Anye kicked the steel bars under his feet, his tone full of relief: "Manager Xu, this time it's thanks to you for discovering it in time, otherwise we would have been dragged into the quagmire by Xishi Construction Investment!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He couldn't help but curse, "These black-hearted people are willing to do anything immoral just to make a little money!"

Xu Anna stood in silence with her arms folded. The cold sweat on the back of her neck soaked through the collar of her shirt. When the wind blew, the chill went straight up her spine.

She shivered slightly as she tightened her coat, but the biting coldness made her mind clearer - the more critical the situation was, the more she could not lose her composure.

Li Jiawei looked at the live video and photos sent by Xu Anna on the mobile phone screen, her fingertips unconsciously stroking her eyebrows, and a chill appeared in her eyes.

This matter, which concerns the life and death of the company, cannot be delayed at all. She took a deep breath and dialed Gong Yifei's number without hesitation.

At this moment, Gong Yifei and Wang Minggui were sitting opposite each other in the tea room, with white mist rising from the celadon teacup. Wang Minggui came to Gong Yifei specifically to give him the invitation for his daughter's engagement with Zhang Yi.

"Brother Wang, congratulations!" Gong Yifei took the pink invitation with a smile, and said warmly, "It's really enviable to have a young talent like Zhang Yi as a son-in-law. I will definitely ask for a glass of wedding wine when the time comes!"

Although they were smiling on the surface, they both had their own grudges in their hearts.

Just a while ago, the two of them had a tit-for-tat dispute over the appointment of the engineering director, which was very unpleasant.

Although Wang Minggui made a clever move in the end and allowed Zhang Yi to take the position smoothly, he also completely offended Gong Yifei.
