Chapter 158
Qingfeng Li, as expected, won first place in the singing competition and got the Sales Department a good ranking . Soon after, Xiaoyue Zhang also got first, in the piano competition .
After receiving first place for 2 competitions, the Sales Department ended up getting first place at the end of the New Years Banquet .
When the banquet ended, the vice president and the logistics director started scheming up something .
"Wei Hu, is the gasoline oil ready yet?" The vice president sent a text message to Wei Hu .
He didn't dare make a call, being too scared of anybody overhearing their conversation .
"Vice President, everything is ready . " Wei Hu replied him with a text .
"Good, pour the gasoline into the waiting room and surrounding area . Wait for all the participants of the competition, including Qingfeng Li, to be in it, and light it on fire . We'll burn him . " Jianjun Hu ordered through texting .
In the corner of the waiting room, Wei Hu was hugging a bucket of gasoline . He had a concerned look on his face .
In all honesty, he did not want to set the fire . He knew that if he did, there are bound to be casualties . Inside that room were 45 employees .
On the other hand, he also knew that if he didn't set it on fire, the Vice President would expose all of his wrongdoings and that wouldn't end well with him .
"Just set it on fire . As soon as I light it, I will run and nobody will find out . " Wei Hu gritted his teeth and finally convinced himself to set it on fire .
Wei Hu poured the entire bucket outside the waiting room's door and took out his lighter, ready to set it on fire .
Meanwhile, Qingfeng Li, Xiaoyue Zhang and a few other participants of the competition were all inside the waiting room . Some were taking off makeup while others were resting .
"Brother Li, you sang very well . " Xiaoyue Zhang spoke to Qingfeng Li, her eyelashes fluttering, and her eyes glistering with admiration .
Everybody around them nodded their heads, agreeing with Xiaoyue Zhang . They were all enchanted with Qingfeng Li's singing .
"Little Yue, your piano skills were very good too . " Qingfeng Li replied with a smile .
Inside the waiting room, a lot of employees from other departments went up to Qingfeng Li to talk to him, wanting to get to know him more .
"Something is wrong, there is a gasoline smell . " Qingfeng Li's facial expression suddenly changed . He was very sensitive to the smell of gasoline because he used to live in the Wolf Continent and back there, he often came into contact with such a scent .
But here was the Ice Snow Corporation . The company sold mainly jewelry and had nothing to do with gasoline .
As soon as he smelt the scent, there was only one possibility that he came up with, somebody was pouring gasoline outside .
In a flash, he moved to the door and pulled it open, a wave of gasoline scent hit him dead on .
With the door opening, everybody else started smelling the gasoline too . They all looked towards the door . And upon seeing gasoline soaking every corner of the corridor outside, everybody was startled .
At the end of the corridor not too far away, Wei Hu had opened up his lighter, ready to throw it into the gasoline .
Oh Shit, Everybody's facial expressions changed . They knew that as soon as Wei Hu set the gasoline on fire, everybody in the room was doomed .
But they were too far from Wei Hu, they were at least dozens of meters away from him . It was too late to stop him .
When Wei Hu saw Qingfeng Li opening the door, his face changed immediately . He originally wanted to leave as soon as he set the gasoline on fire . But before he could do it, the door opened .
How they did find out about me, Wei Hu was very shocked .
Because he was so startled, his hands trembled and the lighter fell towards the ground . It fell right towards the puddle of gasoline that he just poured .
Everybody was in a dire situation . As soon as that lighter hits the ground, nobody would survive .
Ahh . . .
A few people's faces grew pale and out came several shrieks .
"Let me borrow your buttons . " Qingfeng Li used his hand and plucked a button off of Xiaoyue Zhang's shirt . He took the button and threw it at the lighter .
"Pervert . " Her huge breasts came popping out like papayas as the buttons became unbuttoned . She quickly used her hands to block the front of her chest in an attempt to block the view .
Bang!
The lighter was directly hit by the button that Qingfeng Li threw and it flew across the floor, the danger was disarmed .
Of course, as the culprit, Qingfeng Li was not going to let Wei Hu go .
In an instant, Qingfeng Li was in front of Wei Hu . He gave his stomach a good quick kick .
In front of the culprit that almost killed everybody, Qingfeng Li was not going to let him go that easily .
Bang!
Wei Hu's body flew across the corridor and collided into the wall . He coughed out a mouthful of blood as his body collapsed to the floor .
The huge commotion caused the president to come running down the corridor . She was followed after by the vice president and various other department directors .
When she saw the gasoline on the floor, her face became pale . As the president of the corporation, she knew very well what gasoline meant .
She knew that once lit, everybody inside that waiting room would be dead . Whoever wanted to kill them was very despicable .
"What happened here?" She frighteningly asked Qingfeng Li .
"President, Wei Hu wanted to set the gasoline on fire but I was able to stop him in time . " Qingfeng Li pointed towards Wei Hu who was still on the floor .
"President, Wei Hu is indeed abominable, to have wanted us dead . "
"Call the police, let the police deal with him . He just committed a huge crime . "
"Calling the police is too easy for him . We should beat him up first . "
Everybody who was in the waiting room were very vocal with their opinions . After all, they were almost killed inside that room, they all had pent up anger .
Bang Bang Bang . . .
Everybody went up to him and started punching and kicking at Wei Hu . In no time, he was bruised all over the place, giving out painful cries .
"Stop for a second, I still have some things to ask . " Qingfeng Li soon stopped the crowd and walked towards Wei Hu .
"Wei Hu, answer me, why did you want to set the waiting room on fire?" Qingfeng Li questioned him .
Wei Hu looked at Qingfeng Li, then at Jianjun Hu . His lips moved slightly but he didn't say anything upon Qingfeng Li's inquiry .
When he saw Wei Hu's eye movement, he followed along with it and instantly understood when he traced it to Jianjun Hu .
He knew that Wei Hu was the Logistics Director of the company, that was a very good position . An easy position to easily swallow company money by reporting a higher budget than the actual cost of supplies he purchases .
Doing something as setting the company on fire was not going to be dealt with only a simple expulsion from the company if he was found out . It could be as serious as going into jail . Qingfeng Li did not believe for one second that Wei Hu would not care for his own future and do something as stupid as setting the company on fire . There was only one possibility, that somebody told him to do it .
Wei Hu was already a Director, his title was high even amongst other directors . There weren't many people who could order him . Only president or vice president-level people could .
Xue Lin, obviously, wouldn't order him to set the company on fire . So evidently, the person behind the scenes was the vice president Jianjun Hu .
