After receiving an IV drip and taking nitroglycerin pills at the hospital, Yu He finally regained consciousness.
Staring blankly at the ceiling, he felt utterly hopeless.
The company is located next to a crematorium. God knows, no one will even come to work here!
Clenching his fists with gritted teeth, Yu He suddenly didn't know who to hate.
Although his family was decent, it was incomparable to the Bai and Xiao families.
The money spent on buying land and building a company might not be much to those two companies, but it was a considerable sum for him.
Although losing it won't cause him serious injury, it will be enough to give him a long time to recover.
Yu He stared at the ceiling, his anger rising rapidly.
He didn't believe that there was no human intervention behind this!
He immediately took out his phone and dialed the number of the person he knew, but when he pressed for details, the other person didn't say anything.
He was only subtly told that City A was not an easy place to establish oneself.
Once you put it that way, Yu He understood. It didn't really matter; it was just a few leading companies in the area.
However, before he could make any move, his body gave out.
Even the doctor suggested that he get a thorough check-up.
Since they were already at the hospital, Yu He didn't refuse and went straight for a full physical examination.
Many projects were completed, but in the end, the only cause of death was overwork.
With his assistant constantly giving him reassurance pills, Yu He didn't pay much attention.
After careful consideration, he decided to continue building the office building, even though it was next to a crematorium that was about to be established. He figured he could just offer higher salaries when hiring people.
After all, the labor costs are negligible compared to the construction costs.
Yu Heke hadn't forgotten Bai Qinghuan, and would occasionally have people inquire about her symptoms.
After realizing that the condition was indeed getting worse, he felt much less tired.
The collaboration with Xiao Yuan is nearing its end, and we expect to turn a profit in about a week.
But it was precisely during this period that the accident occurred.
The assistant rushed in, saying the project was under investigation.
Upon further inquiry, it was discovered that someone had sabotaged the construction site and orchestrated the accident.
What was supposed to be a simple compensation deal turned into a dispute when the injured worker claimed that the materials used in their project were substandard.
This investigation revealed a problem: the batch that was sampled was indeed substandard.
Once the results are in, the project will likely be halted, and even if it continues, it will have to be completely rebuilt.
This is the first shot Yu He fired in City A. Putting aside the interests, once this accusation of shoddy workmanship is attached to him, it's equivalent to completely blocking his path here.
They lost the trust of those above them and also lost the hearts of the people of City A.
"Who was in charge of procurement back then?" Yu He asked his assistant, calming himself down.
"They're from President Xiao's side."
Upon hearing this answer, Yu He immediately calmed down.
"Better to die than to die myself." Since he's Xiao Yuan's man, let him take the blame.
"Mr. Yu, shouldn't we call and inform Mr. Xiao?" the assistant asked worriedly.
Yu He smiled and shook his head, then lit his cigar.
"President Xiao is incredibly capable; there's no need to bother him with such a small matter."
His real intention was to prevent Xiao Yuan from finding out in advance, lest Xiao Yuan try to shift the blame onto him in the same way he had done.
He exhaled a puff of smoke, making it difficult to see Yu He's relationship clearly.
The assistant sighed silently, glanced at him subtly, and looked at him with pity in his eyes.
Meanwhile, in the Zhiyuan office building, Bai Qingzhi was sitting in front of Xiao Yuan, leaning forward with bright eyes.
Are you sure he really won't call you?
She arrived in the morning and has asked this question several times already.
“Yu He is ruthless, but too arrogant and too selfish. He won’t make this call,” Xiao Yuan replied, patting Bai Qingzhi’s hair.
Bai Qingzhi sighed. Alas, she simply couldn't understand the thought process of hypocritical people.
The assistant has already comforted the injured worker and paid the compensation promptly. Now they are just waiting for the situation to develop further.
After a series of procedures, the results came out the next afternoon, and work was immediately halted.
It was at this moment that Yu He's message arrived.
"Mr. Xiao, I just heard there was an accident at the construction site. Your company's purchasing manager has run into trouble. Do you need my help?"
His voice was full of hypocrisy.
Bai Qingzhi listened from the side, rolling her eyes in disdain.
She was just waiting to see how angry the other person would be.
"An accident at the construction site? Nothing happened at my house. Besides, my younger brother always does all the shopping for my family." Xiao Yuan replied, feigning ignorance.
Yu paused for a moment, then pressed for details about who was in charge of the construction site where the two companies were collaborating.
"Oh, I remember when we signed the contract, our people were supposed to be in charge."
Before Yu He could even settle down, Xiao Yuan continued:
"But then a manager came and said that our company had taken over, so I withdrew all my people."
"So... my company is now in charge of all the procurement for that construction site?" Yu He's voice became sharper.
Bai Qingzhi covered her mouth and chuckled to herself. Although Xiao Yuan's tone remained unchanged, the corners of his mouth curled up.
“You’re in charge of everything, not just procurement. We’re only responsible for profit sharing now.” Xiao Yuan’s words were an even bigger blow to him.
Immediately afterwards, the two heard a "poof" sound.
Bai Qingzhi raised an eyebrow in surprise. Was Yu He too fragile? He was so angry that he vomited blood.
Yu He hung up the phone hastily without saying a word.
