Having achieved financial freedom, I reorganized my workplace.

Chapter 51 One Hair's Breadth, Heroic and Fearless

When it collapsed.

Lin Chen and Tang Yuwei were having dinner at a nice Western restaurant.

The lights were soft and yellow, and the flowers were arranged on a plate—it was quite romantic.

But Lin Chen's head was a bit hard.

He was tricked into coming here.

Tang Yuwei said she had a fever, but that wasn't actually the case; she was actually horny.

Across from me, she wore a royal blue short dress that accentuated her slender and tall figure, revealing her curves. Her breasts appeared fuller than usual. Throughout the meal, she maintained a ladylike and dignified smile, occasionally revealing a shy expression.

The atmosphere was very subtle; she seemed to have something to say.

Lin Chen looked at her dumplings, his mind in turmoil.

He couldn't understand why the young Tang Yuwei would like someone as rich and handsome as him.

He was thirty, much older than her.

It always feels like an old cow eating young grass.

It's exciting, but troublesome.

At this stage, Lin Chen doesn't really want to be in a relationship. Being in a relationship would only affect his speed of writing and drawing his sword. But deep down, he's also a bit of a pervert and wants to experience the taste of her youth.

I'm so conflicted and upset.

Just at this time.

Tang Xin called, her voice urgent: "Lin Chen, something's happened, come back to the office immediately."

Lin Chen didn't want to work overtime, but he could tell from Tang Xin's tense tone that something serious must have happened. Moreover, leaving at this time would allow him to temporarily avoid Tang Yuwei's clutches.

"Um, Yuwei, I have to go back to work overtime. Something big has happened at the company." Lin Chen didn't wait for Tang Yuwei's reaction before running off with his tail between his legs.

"asshole."

Watching his hasty departure, Tang Yuwei stomped her feet angrily.

She ovulates today.

When Lin Chen arrived at the company, a suffocating atmosphere enveloped him.

Before long, the other people in the office gradually returned.

They were all completely bewildered, utterly clueless.

Only Old Man Cheng, with a smug look on his face, whispered the news: "I heard from a rumor that the Nine Dragons Bridge collapsed and people were buried!"

He always complained to Lin Chen that he was part of the generation "persecuted" by the company. Otherwise, with his talent, he would have become a leader and made a fortune long ago. He harbored deep resentment towards the company leaders. Now that the company was in trouble, he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

It's a bit too much.

Song Qiuyu exclaimed in surprise: "A safety accident? No one died? Then our safety performance record for this month is ruined."

Women's concerns are very practical.

"Why did this happen now, of all times? It's really troublesome." Lan Bingyan shook her head. Taking care of several children was indeed quite a hassle.

"The leaders are here." Chen Ya gave them a look, and everyone immediately quieted down. Tan Huasheng and Tang Xin walked in quickly. Tan Huasheng's face, which was usually well-maintained and rosy, was now so gloomy that it looked like it could drip water, as if he was holding back a lot of anger.

"Is everyone here?" Tang Xin asked in a deep voice.

Chen Ya replied, "I can't get through to Zhang Junmin by phone, I can't contact him."

Tang Xin was slightly annoyed and immediately gave instructions: "Lin Chen and Chen Ya, you two take raincoats and emergency tools and come with us to the scene. Cheng Tou, Qiu Yu, and Lan Bing, you prepare emergency supplies for the night in the office. Lights, food, and drinking water are all ready."

No one dared to say anything, and they quickly got into the car.

Tan Huasheng sat in the back row, his brows furrowed, constantly making phone calls to remotely direct the rescue efforts. His tone was extremely agitated, even irritable.

"What a bunch of useless trash! You can't even handle this simple task. What are we feeding you for?"

"What the hell is going on! The crane and excavator haven't arrived yet?"

"Don't give me that 'protect the scene' nonsense, damn it! Saving lives is the priority."

"I don't care what methods you use, dig him out at all costs. There's no room for negotiation here, understand?"

"Don't tell me it's impossible. If I say it's possible, it's possible! I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong. If we can't rescue them, you're all fired."

Tan Huasheng roared incessantly, growing more and more agitated with each outburst. His voice was hoarse, and his face turned a deep purple, as if he were about to suffocate. Just as he put down the phone to catch his breath, Tang Xin handed him a phone: "It's Director Song on the phone."

Tan Huasheng's violent temper subsided considerably in an instant. He sat up straighter and took a deep breath: "Director Song."

"What's the situation on the scene?" Song Jiehui's voice remained relatively calm; people from big cities are just different.

"The person is still buried underground. Rescue efforts have been organized, and I'm on my way to the scene." Tan Huasheng broke out in a cold sweat.

"Director Tan, I'm in the provincial capital right now and won't be able to get back for a while. I'm counting on you to take charge."

"Yes, Director Song, please give your instructions."

"We must do everything we can to save lives. As long as no one dies, everything will be fine."

"Absolutely. I gave the order immediately. We must do everything in our power to rescue them."

"Keep the news strictly under wraps and don't report it. We'll talk about it when I get back."

"clear."

In this time of crisis, the two leaders put aside their past prejudices, united their external forces, and did not forget to care about the people, which is truly commendable.

............

When the car reached the vicinity of Kowloon Bridge, it started raining again. The site had been cordoned off, and cars couldn't get in. The area was almost entirely filled with company personnel. Two excavators had been turned off, and a white car was waiting with its lights flashing.

The person hasn't been dug out yet.

Tan Huasheng, in a great hurry, kicked away a road sign and arrived at the accident scene.

Lin Chen followed him in and saw a muddy pit about four or five meters deep in front of him. Several workers wearing orange rescue suits were lying on the ruins, digging at the rubble with shovels. The mud around them covered their entire bodies.

It's obvious that the person hasn't been rescued yet.

It's a bit risky.

"Director Tan." Director Guan Cong rushed over like a 100-meter sprinter, but Tan Huasheng kicked him like he was kicking trash, angrily shouting, "Get out of my way! The person hasn't been rescued yet, how dare you come to see me?"

Guan Cong was kicked in the groin, but he didn't seem to care.

Another beautiful sliding tackle, and he knelt down directly, his face full of guilt: "Director Tan, we have done everything we can to save him. The excavator has been digging for a while, but the structure of the collapsed area is too unstable. We are afraid of a secondary collapse and injuring people, so we dare not dig any deeper. Now we can only do it by hand."

"There's someone there! There's someone there!"

Tan Huasheng wanted to rebuke him, but at that moment, a cry of surprise came from the pit. Tan Huasheng pushed Guan Cong aside and rushed over.

Lin Chen was also shocked. He followed closely behind and sure enough, he saw an arm sticking out of the pit.

Tan Huasheng stood on top, frantically directing: "Dig quickly, over here, hurry, save people!"

Seeing hope, the workers became like they were on steroids, burning with energy as they dug desperately. The hope grew stronger and stronger, and half of the buried body was already exposed. Everyone on the scene held their breath.

Just as they were about to unearth it, the workers underground seemed to be exhausted, and their movements became increasingly slow.

Tan Huasheng finally couldn't stand it anymore.

Without a sound, he bravely and fearlessly leaped into the muddy pit, but he lost his balance and splashed mud and water all over everyone's faces.

Tan Huasheng, who jumped into the mud pit, did not hesitate at all and immediately joined the excavation team.

So brave and fearless, so selfless.

If even our leaders act this way, how can you all be so ignorant?

Sure enough, spirit is like a contagious disease; others were also inspired.

As a result, the director of the safety supervision department, the director of the project department, and the director of the biotechnology department who followed him all jumped in one after another, just like in a movie. The scene was once out of control and extremely touching.

Lin Chen had originally planned to jump down, but it was too crowded below and there was no room left.

Those who can't get in aren't idle either.

They started cheering for Tan Huasheng from above.
