In fact, when Li Rui received the key to the welfare house, Qingman had mentioned that she would take some time to look at the house and renovate it. However, Li Rui had been busy on weekends and did not have time to accompany her. Thus, the matter was left unsettled. Now that she mentioned it again, it seemed a little late and rushed.
Li Rui frowned and said, "You are almost five months pregnant. You will give birth in less than five months. There is definitely not enough time to decorate and air the house. I am not worried about anything else. I am just worried that the formaldehyde on the paint furniture will not be completely removed and will harm you and the child."
Qingman saw that he was bringing up the same reason as last time and was a little unhappy. She asked, "Then tell me, what else can we do? Do you want Mom to stay in a hotel? "
Li Rui thought about it and agreed. This was the only way. He could not ask his father, Li Jianmin, to stay in a hotel and let He Suli stay in his room. Regardless of what his father would think, He Suli would not accept it.
Qingman said, "Since you are worried about the formaldehyde problem, try to reduce the formaldehyde source during the renovation. Use less paint, don't use flooring, and change to tile. As for the furniture, try to choose furniture that has been out of the factory for a while and has been air-dried enough. If you do this, there will be no problem after three or four months of airing. "
Li Rui felt that it was very reasonable. He nodded and said, "Our leader has a good idea. I am impressed."
Qingman laughed and said, "You are now the first secretary of the Qingyang Municipal Party Committee. It will not be a problem to find a dedicated renovation team and a furniture company to buy some odorless furniture. I will leave this matter to you. Get it done as soon as possible … You can do it when you get home later."
Li Rui raised his hand and saluted. He said, "Yes, leader!"
Qingman was amused by him and said, "You have been well-behaved these two days."
Li Ruiqi said, "When have I been well-behaved? Why didn't I know? "
Qingman said, "You were very obedient last night. First, you massaged my leg to cure my cramps. After that, you restrained yourself very well and didn't torment me. Hehe."
Li Rui couldn't help but laugh. "You're still brooding over the fact that I didn't torment you last night. Looks like I'm going to torment you tonight."
Qingman raised her eyebrows and looked ahead with a smile. "So be it. We don't need condoms now, so we can save money on condoms."
Li Rui laughed heartily, but his heart was moved. With such a virtuous wife, what more could a husband ask for?
When they arrived at Qingyang's house, Li Rui put Qingman down and took the renovation keys to the welfare house. He drove straight to the Cloud Lake Immortal Residence. On the way, he was thinking about where to find a renovation team and where to buy furniture. It was easy to find a renovation team. He could go to any renovation company on the street and find a renovation team. However, the problem was that it was difficult to find a renovation team that knew everything about the construction. It was also difficult to find furniture. There were furniture stores everywhere in the city. He could buy a set of furniture as soon as he went in. However, the same problem was that it was difficult to find furniture that met his requirements. It seemed that he needed to ask his friends for help.
Soon, he drove into the Cloud Lake Immortal Residence. This community was worthy of being the welfare house of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government. It was very high-end. The buildings were fashionable and beautiful, and the environment was clean and tidy. There were green plants everywhere. There were also artificial rivers, pavilions, rockery, bamboos, and other sceneries. It didn't look like a community at all. Instead, it looked like a scenic spot in the South Lake Park.
Li Rui noticed that most of the outer walls of the buildings were hung with air conditioners. This meant that the occupancy rate of the community was very high. It seemed that there were very few people like him who had just started renovating.
There was nothing strange about this. The welfare house of the first phase had been allocated a long time ago. People like Ling Shuyao, who had a quota, had already gotten the key and started renovating. Li Rui's suite was "transferred" to him by Wang Xin, the deputy director of the Municipal Affairs Administration Bureau. When he got the key, the renovation was almost done. After he got the key, he didn't do anything for a long time. Therefore, he only remembered to renovate now that the other people had moved in.
Li Rui parked the car in front of the building in the deepest part of the community. He got out of the car and looked up at his apartment on the eighth floor. He then looked back at the road he came from. He remembered that Ling Shuyao had said that her apartment was ready for occupancy. She invited him over for dinner when he had time. At that time, he agreed readily. However, now it seemed that it was not very convenient. The people living in this community were all cadres of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government. Some of them were acquainted with him. Although the others had not interacted with him before, they definitely knew that he was the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. If he openly went to the beautiful cadre Ling Shuyao's house, he might be seen by many people. Therefore, if he wanted to have dinner with her, he could only go to a restaurant outside and secretly get a private room. This was a typical case of people who were afraid of being famous.
He shook his head with a bitter smile and walked to the door.
The eighth floor!
Li Ruixin happily went to the door of his apartment. He had already taken out the key and was about to open the door. However, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. He saw that the chocolate-colored, elegant, and high-end security door was splashed with a layer of white latex paint from top to bottom. It was like splashing ink on a landscape, turning the beautiful door into an ugly mess. The paint on the top of the door was even and dense, making it impossible to see the original color of the door. The paint on the bottom of the door was dripping, looking like stalactites, mountains, and stars. It was indescribably greasy. The peephole on the door was also blocked by the paint. The doorknob did not escape this disaster, and the floor in front of the door was covered with paint.
Li Rui had never dreamed that something like this would happen. He stared blankly at the scene in front of him. There was not a single thought in his mind. After a long time, he angrily cursed, "F * ck!"
This was obviously done on purpose. If it was unintentional, the paint would not have been splashed so high that it reached the top of the door. It also would not have splashed so much paint. It seemed that more than half the bucket of paint had been splashed here. Then the question was, who did this? Who was the target?
Li Rui frowned and pondered. The first person who could get the paint was the renovation worker. However, even if the workers were drunk, they would not do such a thing that would harm others and themselves. After all, the paint had to be bought with money. After eliminating the renovation worker, there was only the owner left. Nowadays, the renovation company allowed the owners to buy the renovation materials themselves. When the renovation was completed, the materials that were not used up would be left to the owners. Therefore, the owners might have a bucket or half a bucket of paint that was not used up. However, which owner would use the paint to damage their neighbor's door?
This seemed to involve the second question above. Could it be that the other party was targeting him? But that was not right. Now, except for Wang Xin and a few cadres, almost no one knew that this house belonged to him. Therefore, even if someone was targeting him, they would not have splashed paint here. They should have gone to Era Home to splash paint on his current door. Hiss, this was really strange.
Li Rui saw a few advertising papers stuffed in the doorknob. The papers were clean and did not have any paint on them. It should have been stuffed in after the paint was splashed. He took out a piece of paper and folded a corner of the paper. He then poked the corner of the paper into the paint on the door.
The paint was still very soft, in the liquid state that had not yet solidified. The corners of the paper poked in easily, and a lot of it got on the paper.
"It was splashed not long ago!"
Li Rui thought for a while and threw the paper away. He turned and walked to the elevator lobby.
3 minutes later, Li Rui arrived at the district's property office building. This district's property had been contracted out to a company. But that company was a subsidiary of the City Government Affairs Bureau. They could be considered as one family. At least, they were closer and more reliable than the private companies outside. This was also specially designed by the Administrative Bureau. Its purpose was to better serve the leaders of the municipal government who were living in the city.
Li Rui entered the building and walked past the office, General Affairs Office, Security Department, and Finance Office. But he did not see anyone. When he walked to the bathroom, he saw a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup walking out.
Li Rui asked: "Hello, is your leader around?"
The woman saw Dong Xuebing's dignified appearance and serious face. He had the aura of a leader. She did not dare to neglect him and smiled: "Today is Sunday. The leaders are not working."
Li Rui replied: "If they are not working, then call one of them to come to work. Tell them that I am Li Rui from the Municipal Party Committee's General Office."
Li Rui didn't want to put on airs with the other party and their leader, but in this situation, if he didn't put on airs, they might not value him. In order to solve the problem as soon as possible, it was better to put on airs.
Sometimes, being too low-profile will not get you anything!
The woman had not heard of Dong Xuebing's name before. But when she heard Dong Xuebing's name, she knew Dong Xuebing must be someone important. She quickly agreed and went to the Finance Office to call the company's manager.
The manager was familiar with the Municipal Party Committee's leaders and important leaders. When he heard that it was the Municipal Party Committee's First Secretary, Li Rui, he did not dare to delay. He asked his female subordinate to invite Li Rui to have a seat while he rushed over.
In less than 20 minutes, Li Rui met the manager. They shook hands and introduced themselves. Li Rui brought him to his front door and showed him how bad the security door was.
"Ah … … Ah … … Ah … … What is going on?"
The manager saw the mess at his front door and gasped. If someone did not know, they would think he had a toothache.
Li Rui asked: "Manager Yang, did I look for the wrong person?"
Manager Yang nodded his head: "You did not look for the wrong person. Ah … … Ah … … What is going on? Why did someone splash paint on the door? Who did this? "
Li Rui was annoyed by his nonsense and said: "Can the management find out who did this? If you can't find out, I will call the police immediately. "
Manager Yang shook his head: "I can't find out. There are no surveillance cameras in the building … …"
