Chapter 3: The Hero Saves the Beauty

  The next morning, carrying a tired body with a bundle of bedding, arrived at the construction site, and under He Dali's leadership came to what was called the "workers' dormitory".

  As soon as Yang Mu entered the dormitory, he was shocked by the living environment. The so-called dormitory was just a steel plate frame, with an electric fan hanging inside, spinning "whooshing" in there, which was also the only electrical appliance in the room.

  A bed frame supported by bricks on the ground, plus a wooden board, makes up the bed. On top of the bed is a bamboo mat and a quilt that doesn't look very thin. In one corner of the room are some basins and other washing utensils. Hanging from an iron wire leaning against the window are several yellowed short-sleeved shirts. Below the shirts on the cement floor are several small puddles formed by water droplets.

  He Dali helped Yang Mu find a bed next to his, took the suitcase and backpack from Yang Mu's hands and put them on the bed, found a handkerchief, moistened it with some water, and wiped the cooling mat.

  "From now on, you can sleep here." Yang Mu smiled and gave He Dali a cigarette as a thank you. Before he could say anything else, the team leader Dong Shu called everyone to hurry up and get to work.

  Before long, a leader-like person came over and gave each person a new safety helmet and a bottle of mineral water, reminding everyone to be serious and careful about safety when doing things.

  Yang Mu thought his words were just a gust of wind, blowing by and gone. Instead, he picked up the bottle of mineral water himself and took a drink. After all, it was still early autumn, and the sun beat down relentlessly on the construction site all day long, not much better than in summer.

  "You've got a lot of nerve, coming here and handing out mineral water like that. I've never seen them be so generous in all the time I've been here."

  He Dali said with a smile on his side, Yang Mu looked at the mineral water in his hand which cost 1 yuan and asked:

  "Has it never been sent before?"

  "It's never been sent during the three periods of heat."

  Yang Mu just faintly nodded, but in his heart he was not comfortable. He felt unfair for people like Yang Dali who worked hard every day, they paid the most sweat, but got the least return, and most importantly, they didn't even get the most basic human care.

  Yang Mu knew that he had to become a superior man before he was qualified to discuss this issue, and every step he took now was carefully taken in order to stand on the top of the mountain and enjoy the scenery in the future.

  I thought this bottle of mineral water didn't know how many meanings the management had hidden, and sure enough, by almost noon, I saw a group of people with hats of different colors from workers coming to inspect the work on site.

  Yang Mu looked up at the still somewhat sunny sunlight and thought to himself that these people were really good at putting on a show, their pale and chubby appearance was completely out of place whether it was with the people here or the things here.

  They have been surrounding a person, anyway Yangmu has never seen the true face of the person surrounded by Lushan, even the small leader who just sent water to the workers is now on the outermost periphery.

  It's probably the leader of a related department, not the top leader of the company. Anyway, coming here is just going through the motions to show his down-to-earth image, but if he doesn't show up in person, it's hard to establish any image at all.

  Yangmu has despised to the point of turning his nose up at the sky, the high tower in the sky is working hard, Yangmu seems to be able to hear its **voice due to old age.

  Look again at the group of elites under the tower, nodding and accepting the instructions of the person in the middle, the dazzling light shining on the poplar trees making it hard to open their eyes.

  Suddenly I heard someone shouting "Run quickly", and then I saw a large object rapidly falling from high altitude.

  That group of elites dispersed at a speed of 100 meters per second at this time, and only those who stayed inside turned around to see what was happening.

  Instinctive reaction made Yang Mu rush to her front at rocket speed, pushing her away. In an instant, a head of beautiful hair drew a beautiful arc in front of his eyes, and her face finally appeared.

  He had wanted to flash a smile at her, but there was no time. Then Yang Mu lost all memory. The scene was quiet for two or three seconds before someone screamed for an ambulance.

  She hadn't even reacted yet when she was surrounded by the group of elites who had just dispersed to see if she had anything, and only the project manager on this construction site remained silent with a very complex expression on his face.

  She waved her hand and easily parted the crowd, squatting down to look at this person who was dying for saving herself, with blood from somewhere already flowing out from under his body.

  Her eyes were red and hoarse as she shouted "Is there a doctor?" but in the large construction site, not one person stood up to respond to her.

  She really got anxious, and roughly pushed away the crowd around him to make way for the ambulance. Since entering the company, she had been fighting every day, but never felt protected. Today, this stranger suddenly stood up for her, and she suddenly felt a sense of happiness.

  When Yang Mu woke up and opened his eyes, he saw a familiar face. It could only be Jiajia, who was applying lip balm to her lips with a cotton swab.

  Yang Mu played a trick on her by giving her a toothpick to bite, and then looked at Jiajia who closed her eyes, her hand holding the toothpick shaking there.

  After a while, Jiajia might have felt something was off and suddenly opened her eyes, which were filled with bloodshot, to look at Yangmu in surprise. Seeing that Yangmu was indeed smiling at her, she immediately hugged him and muttered:

  "You're finally awake, you scared me to death."

  As she spoke, her voice became choked with sobs, and Yang Mu quickly patted her back and said:

  "If you hold me like this again, I'm probably going to fall asleep."

  Jia Jia quickly got up, covered her eyes with her hands, turned around and ran out to shout loudly at the nurse station outside the door: "Nurse, the patient in here is awake, come and take a look!"

  Next was the doctor's physical examination, Yang Mu's mind was a complete blank, having no idea how he ended up in the hospital.

  Qia Qia and later Lezi and Bang Bang all said unclearly that he was injured, and when they were puzzled, the door of the ward was pushed open, and a woman walked in.

  To be precise, she was a beautiful woman with a blue skirt, her hair styled in a bun, fair skin and a slender figure that perfectly showcased her nobility and beauty.

  Yang Mu stared blankly at her, he had been enchanted by her beauty, if not for the coughing of the stick beside him, Yang Mu would not have known that there was still someone here.

  "Are you awake?"

  The woman asked faintly, and Yang Mu didn't even believe she was asking herself, but here except for himself there was no one more like a patient, so numbly nodded.

  Jia Jia saw Yang Mu's eyes and couldn't help but want to kick him off the bed with one foot, so she said angrily:

  "Don't look anymore, she is the leader of your construction site and has come specifically to see you."

  She intentionally emphasized the two words "especially", but the beautiful woman just smiled faintly and said to Yang Mu:

  "I'm glad to see you wake up, thank you for saving me."

  When he heard her say that she had saved Yang Mu, he felt as if he had seen her somewhere before, but couldn't quite recall where, so with a flushed face, he said:

  "No need to thank me, I just felt like I'd seen you somewhere before and it felt familiar so I saved you. It's just that I've already forgotten what the situation was like at the time, can you describe it to me?"

  Yang Mu's words made Jiajia's face turn white with anger, and Lezi and Bangbang also thought that Yang Mu's skin was too thick.

  He can't even remember what happened, but when others thank him, he shamelessly hits on them, it's already reached a certain level.

  The beautiful woman looked at the crowd, then looked at Yang Mu again, and finally carefully described the situation at that time. Especially when Yang Mu saved her, she seemed to be telling a story of a hero saving a beauty, vividly depicting it in great detail.

  Yang Mu recalled the situation at that time when she mentioned it, most importantly he wanted to give her a smile, but unexpectedly he fell down directly.

  Because when her long hair swung over and revealed her face at that time, Yang Mu had already recognized her, but judging from the current situation, she seemed to have no impression of herself.
