The air pressure in the study was terribly low.
“Tell me, who did it?”
Ling Sheng looked at Ling Yue first, “It must be him!”
He said as he waved his fist and went up to her, “You must have called the people from the Quality Supervision Bureau. You just want to destroy me!”
Now that there was pressure from the outside world, the Ling family must give an explanation to the outside world, so all of Ling Sheng’s positions were suspended immediately.
He determined that it was Ling Yue, and at this moment he stared at Ling Yue with gnashing teeth in hatred.
Then Alice grabbed him by one hand, and Ling Sheng was caught off guard and was almost knocked to the ground by Alice.
Ling Tian slapped the table, “Enough!”
The problem actually came from Ling Sheng, so Ling Tian slapped Ling Sheng on the back of his head.
Moreover, the second young master of the Ling family was actually intimidated by a follower, and a woman at that. There was nothing more embarrassing than this!
Ling Yue watched the whole time with a cold face, showing no emotion.
Ling Tian glanced at Ling Yue, “Was it you?”
Ling Yue sneered, “The fundamental problem lies in the building materials themselves. Even if the Quality Supervision Bureau didn’t show up today, there will be problems next time as well.”
Ling Tian was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and stared at Ling Sheng with wide eyes, “What did you do again!”
Ling Tian’s aura wasn’t acquired in a day. Just by turning the corners of his mouth downwards, he was enough to scare people away.
Ling Sheng’s heart shrank, and he quickly shook his head, “No, I didn’t do anything…”
Ling Yue looked at Ling Sheng and sneered, “I heard that my second brother wanted to sell the inferior building materials at a low price, but he was delayed in finding a buyer, so he ran into the Quality Supervision Bureau.”
Ling Sheng’s expression became more and more ugly. Ling Yue actually knew all this!
Ling Tian was so angry that his hands were shaking. He pointed at Ling Sheng’s forehead and asked him, “Is what your third brother said true?”
Ling Sheng’s forehead suddenly broke out in a layer of sweat, and he stammered to explain: “It’s not just that batch of people on the construction site that have problems… There are problems with all of them, and the amount is tens of millions. I… I wanted to find a buyer first… and then…”
Ling Tian raised his hand and slapped him, “Idiot!”
Ling Sheng’s face swelled up immediately.
Ling Fang quickly said, “Dad, Ling Sheng also wanted to recover his losses…”
“Is money more important or reputation?” Ling Tian interrupted Ling Fang before he could finish. “You are a hopeless person. You snatched the project away but couldn’t do it well. How dare you be so petty in the future…”
Ling Tian was so angry that he started coughing and his face turned red.
Ling Tian took several deep breaths before he managed to calm down.
He knew that the most important thing at the moment was to solve the problem and not let Lingtian Group be destroyed.
“What countermeasures do you have?” Ling Tian asked them.
Ling Tian didn’t look at Ling Yue, but at Ling Fang. After all, Ling Fang was the actual person in charge of Lingtian Group.
Ling Fang frowned and said, “Dad, we can shut up and find someone to take the blame, otherwise my second brother will be in trouble!”
When Ling Sheng heard this, his face turned eggplant color and he looked at Ling Tian in panic, “Dad, Dad! I’m your son, you can’t send me to jail!”
Ling Tian ignored him.
Ling Sheng’s legs went limp and he knelt down, hugging Ling Tian’s legs and begging, “Dad, please save me!”
A big man with a fierce look cried like a baby, looking so cowardly, pitiful and funny.
Ling Fang despised Ling Sheng in his heart, but Ling Sheng had always been on his side of the battle and was still somewhat useful, so he had to give him a hand, otherwise it would be difficult for him to deal with Ling Yue alone.
Ling Fang said quickly: “Dad, although the New Skyline Real Estate project is in Ling Sheng’s hands, things like purchasing raw materials are all handled by the purchasing department below. He just signed his name, and at most he failed to supervise strictly!”
“Yes, yes, big brother is right. It was the purchasing manager who bought it. He is responsible for it. It has nothing to do with me!”
Ling Tian kicked Ling Sheng away, “You useless thing!”
But he also acquiesced to Ling Fang’s proposal.
However, the matter had not been completely resolved. Their insiders had thrown away the burden of inferior building materials, but the New Skyline Real Estate project had to continue.
This matter could no longer be handed over to Ling Sheng.
Even if Ling Tian was relieved, the media would make a fuss about it again.
Moreover, it would be difficult to revive the company now that its reputation was bad, and Ling Sheng was not capable enough.
Ling Tian looked at Ling Fang, but Ling Fang didn’t want to take over this mess. Before Ling Tian was about to give him the project, he said, “Ling Yue, you don’t have any projects on hand. Now that you are back, you can take advantage of this project to integrate into the group.”
When Ling Tian heard this, he thought it made sense. He couldn’t let Ling Yue just take the salary without doing any work.
“Then let the New Skyline Real Estate project be handled by your third brother!” Ling Tian said, rubbing his temple and waving his hand, signalling the three people to go out.
As soon as Ling Sheng went out, he glared at Ling Yue fiercely.
But in the end he found a scapegoat, and the mess was taken over by Ling Yue. Ling Sheng felt much better, so he didn’t argue with Ling Yue anymore. He snorted coldly and left.
Ling Fang and Ling Yue walked out of the old house together.
Ling Fang looked down at Ling Yue, “It seems that the old man still believes in your ability and thinks highly of you.”
Should I respect him or let him clean up the mess?
Ling Fang was clearly gloating over someone else’s misfortune.
Ling Yue smiled, “Yeah, maybe I can establish myself completely with this project. Thanks for the recommendation, big brother!”
After Ling Yue finished speaking, Alice pushed him away, leaving behind a confident and assertive back.
Ling Fang suddenly felt breathless and didn’t feel well.
