Chapter 66 - 66 Counter Every Move
66 Counter Every Move
As Luo Tianming spoke, he had already pushed open the door to Luo Chen’s company meeting room.
He had arrived earlier and thought that Luo Chen would go straight upstairs, so he waited in the office.
In the end, he made a wasted trip. He only found out that he was in the conference room after asking the staff.
**Pa!**
Luo Chen threw his phone on the table and looked indifferently at Luo Tianming’s arrogant appearance.
“Is it because the stock price has plummeted that you’re in such a hurry to hold a meeting?”
Luo Tianming didn’t mind. He pushed aside a Manager and sat on a chair.
“Second Uncle, although we’re family, I’m in charge of the company after all. It’s not appropriate for you to visit so suddenly without informing me in advance, right?”
Luo Chen placed his hands on the table and brushed his behavior off casually.
“What do you mean? I’m here to give you a chance. If this continues, our entire family will be affected.”
Luo Tianming’s smile became even more smug.
It seemed like Su Han wasn’t completely useless.
Initially, Luo Tianming did not intend to visit personally. After all, he was Luo Chen’s elder. Talking to him personally seemed to lower his status.
However, from the looks of it, he had come at the right time!
“Then what do you want, Second Uncle?”
Luo Chen thought for a moment and spoke calmly.
From the beginning to the end, his emotions did not fluctuate much. He did not care about Luo Tianming’s attitude at all.
It was even to the extent that because of Luo Tianming’s actions, all his previous guesses had come true.
His second uncle must have had some secret dealings with Su Han.
Otherwise, things wouldn’t have been so coincidental, and they wouldn’t have been so targeted.
It was clearly Luo Tianming’s construction site that had the accident.
In the end, the news articles were all about Luo Chen.
It was obvious who this matter was directed at.
“It’s actually very simple. You’re still young and might not be suitable for business. Why don’t you just transfer the construction site under your name to me?
After all, according to this situation, not to mention a three-month deadline, even if it’s three years, you might not be able to escape from such a scandal.
Besides, you may not be flustered yet, but the Luo family is.
The reputation that the family has worked so hard to build up can’t be ruined by you alone.”
Luo Tianming said proudly.
This was the excuse he had thought of before he came. It did not matter what the truth was.
As long as he could push all the responsibility onto Luo Chen, he could stay out of trouble.
“Second Uncle, did you really not investigate how the migrant worker who had an accident at your construction site fell off the building?”
The more Luo Chen listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.
There were clearly many suspicious points in the incident of the migrant worker falling off the building. How could he avoid talking about it?
“You don’t have to worry about that. Just tell me if you want to give in or not.”
Luo Tianming’s eyes turned cold as he said rudely.
“That’s impossible. You’d better stop dreaming.
Second Uncle, let me give you a piece of advice. You have to pay more attention to everything. Don’t give your money to someone and still help them count the money.”
Luo Chen’s patience was exhausted. He snorted impatiently.
BANG!
Luo Tianming slammed his palm on the table and stood up.
“I’ve given you face, but you don’t want it. You better remember what you said today.”
After saying this, Luo Tianming turned around and left.
It was because of his identity that he could not continue to pester Luo Chen.
Otherwise, if word got out that he, an elder, was snatching business from a junior, wouldn’t his reputation be ruined?
Luo Chen watched Luo Tianming’s departing figure indifferently, and a thoughtful look flashed across his face.
…
In the evening.
Luo Chen finished his work for the day and called Luo Zhenhua directly.
He told Luo Zhenhua everything he suspected.
For example, Luo Tianming might have made a deal with Su Han.
Another example was the inspection team that had obviously come to cause trouble.
“What?! He dares to make things difficult for you with outsiders?!”
Luo Zhenhua’s loud voice made Luo Chen’s eardrums buzz, and he quickly moved the phone away.
“Alright, you don’t have to worry about this. I’ll go look for him tomorrow and ask him what he wants! I want to know if he still sees me as his father!”
The more Luo Zhenhua thought about it, the angrier he got.
“Grandpa, you don’t have to be in such a hurry. I just want to tell you what happened first. This way, if anything happens later, you don’t have to be too anxious.
I have my ways to deal with him.”
Luo Chen’s lips curled into a smile as he patiently comforted Luo Zhenhua.
The two of them conversed for a while more as Luo Chen spent a lot of effort to get Luo Zhenhua to agree not to investigate this matter first.
…
One night later.
The first thing he did when he woke up was to look at his cell phone.
As expected, the news flashed past one by one.
Looking at the discussions on the Internet, the popularity of the Luo family seemed to have increased today.
Some people had even begun to attack him personally, and some even wanted to reveal all of Luo Chen’s details to the public.
“That’s interesting.”
It was what Luo Chen concluded from the farce.
Then, he put away his cell phone and slowly got up to wash up.
When it was time to start work, the person in charge called.
Luo Chen, who was eating breakfast, had no choice but to answer the call.
“Young Master! This is bad! Someone is causing trouble at the construction site! It’s a group of old men and women so we can’t even beat or scold them.
They aren’t doing anything else. They’re just surrounding the engineering equipment without saying anything.
If they continue to stand there like this, the reporters outside will come in for an interview!
Also, a day’s suspension at our construction site will delay a lot of things!
If this continues, it will definitely delay the construction period!”
The person-in-charge shouted at the top of his lungs. His side was filled with uncles and aunties chatting and teasing. It was extremely noisy.
“Hold on for a while. I’ll deal with it now. Remember, you must maintain a good attitude. Don’t let others catch you red-handed.”
With that, Luo Chen hung up without waiting for the person-in-charge to say anything else.
Luo Chen arrived at the company.
Next, he immediately instructed his secretary.
First, all the information on the construction site that could be publicized to the public was to be publicized. This would allow the vast number of netizens to browse their information at will.
Secondly, a supervisory office was to be established at the construction site and an application was made for the inspection team to be permanently stationed there.
Naturally, whether the inspection team agreed or not was another matter. Luo Chen’s side just had to make their stance known to the public
Lastly, a statement was posted on the official website.
Although Luo Chen and Luo Tianming were both from the Luo family, they were each in charge of completely different construction sites.
A set of combo punches rained down.
After half a day, the crazy public opinion finally calmed down.
