"You … Who are you? "Why are you so sure?"

Xu Qing stared at Lee Hongtian and asked without waiting for Zhou Yafei and Chen Bing to speak.

Xu Qing had no idea about Lee Hongtian's identity and had never seen him before.

"Manager Xu, he's President Zhou's husband." At this moment, Chen Bing hurriedly warned Xu Qing. She didn't want Xu Qing to offend Lee Hongtian.

Anyway, the relationship between Lee Hongtian and Zhou Yafei was no longer a secret, so it was fine to tell it.

"Ah …" When Chen Bing mentioned Lee Hongtian's identity, Xu Qing's face was immediately filled with shock, and even his mouth became round. How could he have expected Lee Hongtian to be Zhou Yafei's husband?

This time, Xu Qing didn't dare to say anything. He didn't dare to question Lee Hongtian's words.

However, Zhou Yafei and Chen Bing were very curious and wondered why Lee Hongtian said that.

"Hongtian, why do you say that?" Zhou Yafei looked at Lee Hongtian and asked curiously.

"Wife, come over and take a look." Lee Hongtian didn't immediately explain, but smiled at Zhou Yafei and the other two to signal for them to go ahead.

After seeing Lee Hongtian's signal, Zhou Yafei and the other two immediately walked up to where Lee Hongtian was standing.

"Look, there are traces of being dragged here, which means the thief stole these materials along the wall from here." Lee Hongtian pointed at the marks on the wall and explained.

Seeing these marks, Zhou Yafei and the other two of them obviously agreed with Lee Hongtian, but what could this prove?

"Manager Xu, you said that there's a total of twenty bags, each bag has three thousand, right?" Then, Lee Hongtian asked Xu Qing for confirmation.

After Xu Qing heard what Lee Hongtian said, he immediately nodded his head in confirmation. His face was full of confusion; he had no idea what Lee Hongtian was up to.

"Think about it, if we want to transport away so much material, we will need a vehicle, and I don't think the other party is trying to sell it for money, but to prevent our project from proceeding any further, so that we can't complete the project within the expected time limit, and then we will be in breach of contract." At this time, Lee Hongtian told Zhou Yafei and the other two all the reasons in detail.

Zhou Yafei and the other two looked at each other after hearing that. They felt that Lee Hongtian's words made a lot of sense.

With sixty thousand sets of materials, it wouldn't be easy to sell. Moreover, the target would be very big, and it would definitely attract the attention of others.

Another thing was, why were these materials lost at the critical moment of the project? This is indeed something to be suspicious of.

Therefore, there was only one thing that they had done on purpose, and that was to make it impossible for the project to be completed within the expected duration.

"Then who did it?" Xu Qing once again fell into deep thought and muttered to himself.

Who the hell wanted them to fail? Who was it that did such an excessive thing …?

"If I guessed right, this person must be very familiar with this place, and it's very possible that he's someone from the construction site." Then, Lee Hongtian said something else.

Lee Hongtian's words instantly woke up Zhou Yafei and the other two.

"Also, these materials must not have been lost. They must be somewhere. This place isn't too far from the construction site. As long as we do a thorough investigation, we will find them. We won't be able to transport that much material." Lee Hongtian analyzed again.

Zhou Yafei and the other two also nodded in agreement. Now it seemed that Lee Hongtian's analysis was quite reasonable.

If it was anyone else, who would know that there was a batch of materials here?

Therefore, only those within the inner circle would know and be familiar with the situation here. Only then would they do such a thing.

"Manager Xu, go inform everyone at the construction site to gather..."

"Yes sir!"

At this moment, Zhou Yafei immediately ordered Xu Qing.0

"Wait!"

Without waiting for Xu Qing to move, Lee Hongtian called out to him.

"I can't gather everyone. If I do this, I'll just alert the enemy, and I definitely won't be able to find that person." Lee Hongtian said with a serious expression.

"Then what should we do?" Xu Qing asked with a confused expression.

"Manager Xu, that person must have had some sort of plan. Since he wants to play with us, we might as well play with him. How about this, listen to me …" Lee Hongtian walked to Xu Qing's side with a look of interest and whispered in his ear.

After Xu Qing heard what Lee Hongtian said, a strange smile instantly appeared on his face.

After seeing the expressions of Xu Qing and Lee Hongtian, Zhou Yafei and Chen Bing looked at each other. They didn't know what Lee Hongtian wanted to do nor did they know what Lee Hongtian said to Xu Qing.

"Go, do as I say." After saying that, Lee Hongtian instructed Xu Qing.

"Alright, I understand." Xu Qing also answered and then turned around and left quickly.

Lee Hongtian, on the other hand, was standing where he was with a smile on his face, as if he had already made up his mind.

Then, Lee Hongtian signaled to Zhou Yafei and Chen Bing before leaving the construction site.

After leaving the construction site, Lee Hongtian and the other two got into the car.

"Hongtian, what did you just say to Manager Xu? What exactly do you all want to do? " Zhou Yafei couldn't help but ask Lee Hongtian as soon as she got on the car.

"That's right, the two of you are very mysterious, what are you trying to do?" Chen Bing also echoed Zhou Yafei's words and asked Lee Hongtian curiously.

"Hehe, you will know about it tonight." However, Lee Hongtian didn't explain it to Zhou Yafei and Chen Bing.

Everything was under Lee Hongtian's control, so they only needed to quietly wait for their prey to arrive.

Lee Hongtian told Xu Qing to prepare 20 bags of the same kind of burlap bags and to put the broken stones inside them. He told Xu Qing to put the burlap bags, which looked like the materials, in the original place on the wall.

Then, he told Xu Qing to post the news that the materials lost at the construction site were nowhere to be found and that he would not stop the project by purchasing new materials.

The reason for doing this was to confuse the thief. Only in this way could Lee Hongtian and the others wait for him and capture him.

Now that the bait had been set, all that was left was to wait for the fish to catch it.

Since the other party wanted Zhou Yafei and the others to finish the project within the time limit, they would definitely act again after learning of the situation.

Also, Lee Hongtian felt that there must be a mastermind behind this. It was impossible for the workers at the construction site to do such a thing, someone must have ordered them to do it.
