Chapter 391
Li Fei was a good girl; she didn't want her family to fall apart, and she was even less willing to see her father's helpless and painful appearance after losing his job.
"Feifei." "What's wrong?" Li Fei raised her head to look at the man in front of her.
The man's name was Chen Zhibin, twenty-five years old this year, a university graduate, and also a student who had come to the city from a small county.
"We've been together for quite a while, and I've always liked you quite a bit."
"What do you want to say?"
"Look, I have a car and a house now, and my job is stable. Why don't we get married? I believe that if we are together, we will definitely be happy," Chen Zhibin said sincerely.
"Hehe..." Li Fei gave a cold laugh and said, "Zhibin, it's true that we've been doing well together, but you also know that our conditions are too far apart; we aren't suitable." ===== CHAPTER 821 =====
Wan Ping'an arrived at the Steel Rolling Mill and saw He Yuzhu standing in the factory courtyard, asking why he was standing there.
"First Uncle, it seems like something happened inside the factory, but no one has figured out what's going on yet."
"Master, it's bad. They say someone in the workshop was injured by steel materials," Ma Hua ran over to tell He Yuzhu. This Ma Hua was He Yuzhu's apprentice in the cafeteria.
After hearing Ma Hua's words, He Yuzhu's expression immediately became solemn. He then said to Zhou Tao and Sun Hao, "You two don't rush to the construction site yet; I'll go to the workshop to see what's going on first."
Zhou Tao and Sun Hao heard this and also felt it made sense. They nodded and let He Yuzhu go over first.
Wan Ping'an also prepared to go to the workshop.
However, he was stopped by someone. "Hey, what are you doing? Don't you know you're not allowed to barge in here?"
"Are you blind? Can't you see what I'm wearing?"
Wan Ping'an glared at the guard and said, "Do I need to tell you why I'm here?"
"Who are you..."
The guard was just about to get angry but suddenly froze and said, "You... are you Wan Ping'an?"
Wan Ping'an glanced at the guard, snorted coldly, and said, "Nonsense, who else would dare to use this name besides me? Get out of my way right now."
"Yes... yes..." After hearing Wan Ping'an's words, the guard didn't dare to stop him anymore and moved aside directly.
Wan Ping'an bypassed him and arrived at the entrance of the workshop.
At this moment, many people had gathered at the entrance of the workshop; some were directing work, and others were splashing water at the entrance.
In the center of the crowd, a figure was kneeling on the ground, holding his head and crying bitterly.
This person was none other than Fatty Liu.
"Ping'an, hurry and save Fatty Liu; he seems to have suffered internal injuries."
Seeing Wan Ping'an, He Yuzhu immediately shouted anxiously.
"Fatty Liu, how are you? Don't scare me!" Zhou Tao asked nervously.
Wan Ping'an frowned slightly and then stepped forward, walking into the workshop.
At this time, when Fatty Liu saw Wan Ping'an, he was overjoyed and cried out, "Brother Ping'an, please save me, I'm about to be crushed to death! Wuwuwu..."
Then he crouched down to check his injuries.
"Brother Ping'an, he is pinned under the machine. No matter how we pull, we can't get him out. We're afraid he won't be able to hold on..." He Yuzhu choked with sobs.
Wan Ping'an reached out to help him up and then said, "Don't worry, I'm here!"
Wan Ping'an looked around and noticed that there was a large hole in the wall of the workshop, and there seemed to be people inside. However, due to the cold weather and the darkness inside the hole, even Wan Ping'an couldn't see the specific situation clearly.
Wan Ping'an took a deep breath, then jumped into the hole and climbed in along the ladder.
The hole wasn't deep, only about two meters, and the temperature inside was even lower. At this moment, Wan Ping'an finally saw the situation at the bottom.
He saw a huge steel plate at the bottom, at least ten centimeters thick, covered with iron sheets, like a wall, firmly sealing this steel plate inside.
"Damn it! Trying to trap me to death in here!" Wan Ping'an roared through gritted teeth.
Wan Ping'an looked at the steel plate and realized it would be very difficult to move it; it would take at least three or four people working together to move it. But right now, there weren't three or four people.
"Brother Ping'an, what should we do now?" Ma Hua shouted from outside. ===== CHAPTER 822 =====
"Don't panic, I have a way."
Wan Ping'an looked at the structure of the steel plate and narrowed his eyes into a line.
Wan Ping'an took out the small knife he carried and slowly approached the giant steel plate, waiting for the best opportunity to cut.
This steel plate was very sturdy; Wan Ping'an had to find its weakest point. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to destroy it.
Subsequently, after carefully observing the steel plate, Wan Ping'an suddenly discovered that the space beneath it seemed to be empty.
Wan Ping'an immediately tapped on the steel plate with his dagger for a while. It was indeed as he had expected; the space beneath the steel plate was empty. As long as the lower part was pried open, the entire steel plate would collapse.
Of course, the only tricky problem now was how to pry open the lower part of the steel plate. After all, the current situation didn't allow Wan Ping'an to spend too much time prying the plate. Otherwise, if the delay was too long, it might cause even bigger trouble.
"Brother Ping'an, how is it? What's the situation?" He Yuzhu asked Wan Ping'an.
"I've already confirmed that it's empty underneath, but I can't dig it open for the time being because I don't have a crowbar."
Wan Ping'an looked at He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu understood Wan Ping'an's meaning immediately and quickly took a piece of wire out of his pocket and handed it to Wan Ping'an. "Brother Ping'an, this is my family's heirloom wire; it's been used for several generations. It should be enough, right?"
Wan Ping'an looked at the wire. Although he didn't understand these things, he felt that the wire seemed quite sturdy.
"Hmm, it should be enough."
After taking the wire, Wan Ping'an immediately used the dagger to cut toward the steel plate. The hardness of this steel plate was quite formidable; Wan Ping'an cut several times without breaking it.
Moreover, Wan Ping'an felt that the weight on the steel plate was getting heavier and heavier. Wan Ping'an guessed that the heavy objects added on top of the steel plate were definitely more than five tons, perhaps even seven or eight tons. This was because the steel plate had already sunk half a foot into the mud.
Wan Ping'an looked at the steel plate and continued to cut it with the dagger.
The dagger Wan Ping'an used was very sharp; with one strike, he cut the steel plate directly.
Then, Wan Ping'an quickly threw the other end to the ground.
Afterward, Wan Ping'an picked up a shovel and shoveled into the gap of the steel plate.
This time, Wan Ping'an shoveled for about ten minutes and finally shoveled the steel plate open completely.
Wan Ping'an looked at the people under the steel plate, frowned slightly, and shouted to He Yuzhu, "Uncle Yuzhu, help me hold Fatty Liu down, don't let go no matter what."
"Alright," He Yuzhu replied quickly.
Subsequently, Wan Ping'an leaped down and dragged the people underneath out.
Wan Ping'an dragged out two people in total, placed them on the ground, and then dragged Fatty Liu out as well.
Wan Ping'an looked at Fatty Liu and saw that his lips were already purple; he had clearly passed out.
Wan Ping'an checked him and found a bruise on Fatty Liu's neck, clearly caused by being hit, but this bruise wasn't life-threatening; at most, it was a mild concussion.
Wan Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had arrived in time, otherwise, Fatty Liu might have been buried alive. Wan Ping'an patted Fatty Liu's chest and found that he still hadn't woken up, so he carried him on his back and said, "Yuzhu, help me send these two to the hospital."
"Hmm, alright." ===== CHAPTER 823 =====
