My Terrible Life in Those Years

In that urgent situation, I blurted out, "Aunt Shu, this is Jiang Ning. I'm at the gymnasium, and I have something extremely important to report!"

Old Liu stared at me intently, his eyes wide. "Hey, you're supposed to be reporting on your work, but you're calling her Aunt Shu?"

Something's up!

His eyes lit up, and he immediately sensed that he had discovered a clue to something he didn't know.

She sounded both embarrassed and angry on the phone: "You little rascal, how dare you call me that!"

I paused for a moment before I could hear what came next.

"What's so important?"

"I'm in big trouble!" I said this first, exaggerating the seriousness of the matter, and I figured she would overlook the fact that I called her Aunt Shu.

"explain!"

"A worker fell from the scaffolding in the stadium and refuses to go to the hospital, saying he wants to wait for our supervisor to come and clarify the responsibility before he will go. Manager Wu asked me to come and check on the situation. I'm on site now."

I told her about the incident in the fastest language I could think of.

"Did you report this to him? What did he say?"

"He said he was communicating with the contractor and told me to wait for a call!" I told him in detail.

"What!!!???" She seemed somewhat surprised by Wu Bo's reaction and response!

"Jiang Ning, listen to me carefully. Since you're here, you must handle this matter properly."

I'm authorizing you to handle this matter. First, to tell the migrant workers that no matter what the agreement between our company and the contractor is, we won't let him spend a single penny.

Secondly, you tell him that if he delays treatment because of his own actions, he will be fully responsible!

Third, please check which hospital you went to, and I will immediately send the cashier to the scene to pay the medical expenses in advance!

Fourthly, this project is a prestige project, prepared for the upcoming competition, and there can be absolutely no mistakes!

I was shaken for half a minute.

An older woman is indeed an older woman; she handles things in a clear and organized manner, prioritizing tasks and understanding responsibilities.

Okay, from now on, I won't call her "Auntie," I'll just call her "Big Sister Shu"!

I was confident, so I didn't wait for Wu Bo's call.

I squeezed back into the crowd.

He said to the several contractors, "I am an employee of Huihuang Company!"

Before he could finish speaking, several workers, enraged, threw their safety helmets to the ground.

"Damn it, you're only arriving this late? You guys are really heartless!"

"Of course! You only send people when our workers can't take it anymore?"

"This company can't be serious, sending a young person like this? Can they even manage anything?"

I am tall, but the people opposite me are laborers who do manual labor all year round. They are all burly and strong, and you could squeeze oil out of me just by squeezing them.

When Lao Liu saw that things were not going well, he wondered why these people seemed to want to make a move.

Rush upwards quickly.

My whole being was trembling, but my face remained completely expressionless.

He raised his voice slightly: "Listen up, everyone!"

"Hearing your ass? You're barely grown up, what business could you possibly have?"

"Exactly! Call your top leader over right now! Sending someone like this to fool us!"

The young nurse looked at me helplessly. They, a doctor, a nurse, and a caregiver, had been working for half a day, but to no avail. Did you think you, a mere kid, could do it?

This company is so unreliable.

The doctor and the caregiver also sighed and shook their heads together!

The other workers joined in the commotion: "Judging by his appearance, he doesn't have a single penny on him. He claims to be sent by the company to handle something? Are they just sending some young punk to fob us off?"

The situation was about to spiral out of control again.

I took out my phone, pointed it at the worker lying on the ground, and yelled, "Shut the fuck up, all of you!"

The chicken hot pot we had for lunch came in handy; it gave us a powerful and resounding voice that shook the entire room!

The entire scene fell silent for a few seconds, a rare occurrence.

I quickly regained control: "You, and all of you, are you trying to kill him? Tell me, and you too!!"

Anyway, the fire's started, so who cares? Let's just knock them out first.

The nurse's two sentences stunned the worker, who gasped in astonishment. His voice, muffled by his mask, was low and unpleasant to hear.

The foreman, a dark-skinned worker, looked rather displeased.

"Nonsense! It's clearly you who don't want to get involved, so why are you blaming us? Why should we believe you, you little brat?"

"Let me tell you, if I didn't want to get involved, I wouldn't have shown my face in the first place. Even if I hadn't said I was an employee of this company, would you have recognized me?"

I then used the Qi from my Dantian.

Damn it, I'm a migrant worker myself. If I can't control you guys, what have I accomplished?

If I don't resolve this today, who knows what Aunt Shu will think of me in the future.

If I can't even handle this situation after being given so many trump cards, I'll have no face to go back to the company.

"What makes us believe you're here to solve this problem? If someone gets on the bus, goes to the hospital, and is just dumped there, who's going to take responsibility? Who can say for sure what that responsibility is!"

In the end, it all comes down to this worker foreman being afraid to take responsibility and afraid to share the costs!

I laughed: "What do you want in return for believing I can solve this?"

"You, you pay first, give us the medical expenses, and we'll take him to the hospital right away!" The dark-faced worker stretched out his rough, black hand in front of me.

I was completely honest: "I arrived in a hurry and didn't bring any money with me!"

Just as they were about to start making a scene again, I added, "But our company accountant has already left and is heading to the hospital where he's being treated!"

He immediately turned to the nurse and asked, "Which hospital? Yours?"

The young nurse reacted quickly: "Workers' Hospital!"

"Let him get in the car, I'll immediately notify the accountant to rush to the Workers' Hospital! You won't have to spend a single penny!"

The dark-faced worker turned his head to look at the other workers, who seemed to have been persuaded by me at this moment.

"No, we won't feel at ease until we see the money!"

These workers, you could say they're honest, but you wouldn't call them cunning either. They're just stubborn, with a bit of distrust of the powerful company, cautious, and clinging to what they believe to be the right path!

Without saying a word, I slapped the phone into his hand.

"Keep this phone with you for now. It's worth at least some money, right? You'll know when you get to the hospital and see our accountant, won't you? Take the phone with you, and come with this injured worker too!"

"If you delay any longer and hinder treatment, can you bear the responsibility?"

I got a little angry at the last sentence. If things really went wrong, I can't escape the responsibility.

The dark-faced worker took the phone and looked at me with suspicion.

"Don't worry, this phone number contains our Manager Wu's number, as well as the phone numbers of our General Manager Shu and General Manager Liu. You can contact our leaders at any time!"

"Also, keep your phone safe. If you lose or damage it, you won't be able to contact the accountant or the manager!"

While he was putting away his phone, I waved my hand, and the nurse and caregiver quickly came over to lift the injured worker into the ambulance. Old Liu, the stern-faced worker, also got into the ambulance!

At this moment, Lao Liu and I finally breathed a sigh of relief!

Old Liu gave me a thumbs up and mouthed: Awesome!

An accident that could have triggered a major incident was finally resolved thanks to my strong and confident approach!

Just when I thought things were settled and I could finally relax, the damn phone rang again. When the stern-faced foreman handed it to me, I glanced at the number—it was Wu Bo's!

I have a bad feeling!
