Chapter 392: Cutting Corners

He Yuzhu nodded, and then he and Wan Ping'an helped Fatty Liu and Old Man Zhang onto a vehicle and rushed quickly toward the hospital.

When Fatty Liu opened his eyes again, he found that it was already bright outside, and he was lying on a hospital bed.

Fatty Liu touched his forehead and felt a slight stinging pain.

Fatty Liu tried hard to recall what happened yesterday. He was working in the workshop when he suddenly discovered that a steel plate couldn't support the weight and suddenly pinned him down so he couldn't move.

Fatty Liu exclaimed immediately, "Mom, I wasn't dreaming?"

"What are you shouting about? This is a hospital," the nurse said immediately after hearing Fatty Liu's scream.

The nurse was quite young, estimated to be around twenty years old.

Seeing that it was a pretty young girl, Fatty Liu felt happy in his heart. He immediately asked, "Nurse sister, may I ask who sent me here?"

"Are you talking about the young man who saved you just now? He just left."

"Wow, this young lady, you are really beautiful. Can I know your name? Let's be friends in the future," Fatty Liu asked with an excited face.

"Don't talk nonsense. The person who saved you should be called Wan Ping'an; you should know him, right? He said you are an employee of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill."

After Wan Ping'an and He Yuzhu sent Fatty Liu and Old Man Zhang to the hospital, they returned to the Steel Rolling Mill. At this time, the people at the Steel Rolling Mill were still surrounding the steel plate in the workshop.

Deputy Factory Manager Wang was also working at the Steel Rolling Mill, looking at the steel plate and questioning who did this, making the steel plate deformed.

"I did it, so what? If I hadn't done it, it would have cost lives. Deputy Factory Manager Wang, you tell me, is the steel plate more important or is human life more important?"

Wan Ping'an looked at Deputy Factory Manager Wang without fear, refuting his question.

Wan Ping'an's attitude surprised everyone around. This Wan Ping'an was too bold to dare to speak to him like that.

Moreover, where did this Wan Ping'an pop out from? How did he know about the Steel Rolling Mill's affairs?

Deputy Factory Manager Wang looked at Wan Ping'an; he didn't expect Wan Ping'an to be in the right. He couldn't help but be speechless. He also knew that what Wan Ping'an said made sense, but he felt a sense of grievance in his heart.

"Wan Ping'an, explain it clearly to me today, how did this steel plate crack? Don't think that just because you are the First Uncle of the Sihe Academy, you can be so arrogant," Deputy Factory Manager Wang pointed at Wan Ping'an's nose and roared.

"That's simple, your Steel Rolling Mill people cut corners. Ask the workers around you and see if it's true that your Steel Rolling Mill cuts corners," Wan Ping'an said with a cold laugh. ===== CHAPTER 824 =====

Wan Ping'an's words immediately caused people all around to discuss it. They had indeed heard about the Steel Rolling Mill cutting corners, but they didn't expect it to be true.

Deputy Factory Manager Wang's face turned red, and he glared angrily at Wan Ping'an: "When did our Steel Rolling Mill cut corners? Stop slandering us!"

"Hehe, slandering? Then prove it to me. I don't believe your Steel Rolling Mill cuts corners and can still pin someone under a steel plate? Unless you are gods," Wan Ping'an said with disdain.

"Alright, I want to see how you prove it. Wan Ping'an, don't forget, I am the Deputy Factory Manager here. If you frame our Steel Rolling Mill, you will be arrested."

Wan Ping'an didn't have any worries at all; instead, he said calmly, "Fine, as long as you dare to prove that your Steel Rolling Mill didn't cut corners and don't arrest me, I'll let you deal with me however you want."

"Fine. You wait, I'm making a call now," Deputy Factory Manager Wang said and dialed a number. ===== CHAPTER 825 =====

Before long, Deputy Factory Manager Wang's phone rang. After picking up the phone, Deputy Factory Manager Wang said to the other end, "Hello? Director Zhao, hello..."

A serious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Comrade Deputy Factory Manager Wang, hello, I am Zhao Qiang, the director of the Four-Nine City Police Station. Did your Steel Rolling Mill cut corners? Now there are reports from the public that your Steel Rolling Mill tampered with the steel plates, causing cracks. Please investigate it as soon as possible, otherwise, I will have to bring people to your Steel Rolling Mill to make arrests."

Deputy Factory Manager Wang was stunned. How did this Zhao Qiang know about their Steel Rolling Mill cutting corners? Could it be because of that inspection report?

But only a few of their top leaders knew about this matter; even the ordinary employees in the factory didn't know about it. Where did this Zhao Qiang get the news? Could it be that this Wan Ping'an reported it?

"Yes, yes, yes, Director Zhao, rest assured, our Steel Rolling Mill has always been upright and honest; there will absolutely be no such thing as cutting corners. Please wait a moment, I will have our Steel Rolling Mill's technical supervisor handle this matter immediately."

After hanging up the phone, Deputy Factory Manager Wang looked at Wan Ping'an and said, "Wan Ping'an, our Steel Rolling Mill's steel plates are operating normally; there is absolutely no such thing as cutting corners. And I have never seen this Wan Ping'an you speak of. As for that ambulance, I have looked for it for a long time and couldn't find it; it must have been towed away. If you don't believe me, you can go to the police station to check the surveillance footage."

Wan Ping'an had already anticipated Deputy Factory Manager Wang's reaction; after all, this matter concerned the interests of the Steel Rolling Mill. Although what Deputy Factory Manager Wang said was the truth, he would still quibble and even shirk responsibility.

Wan Ping'an couldn't be bothered to argue with Deputy Factory Manager Wang and said directly to He Yuzhu beside him, "Yuzhu, let's go."

"Alright," He Yuzhu agreed and followed Wan Ping'an away.

After Wan Ping'an and He Yuzhu left, Deputy Factory Manager Wang breathed a sigh of relief; he knew he had escaped this disaster.

It's just that who exactly is this Wan Ping'an? He is actually so formidable that he even dares to confront him, a Deputy Factory Manager.

"Hmph, I'll deal with you when I meet you next time; I'll spare you this time," Deputy Factory Manager Wang muttered.

On the other side, Wan Ping'an and He Yuzhu were sitting on a park bench. He Yuzhu sat on the ground, panting heavily; he had run too fast just now, and his legs were still a bit weak, his whole body drenched in sweat.

Wan Ping'an took out two bottles of mineral water, handed one to He Yuzhu, and drank one himself, saying, "Yuzhu, thank you for your help just now."

He Yuzhu waved his hand and said, "What are you thanking me for? We are brothers, and besides, that bastard bullying our steel mill workers is the same as bullying me."

Wan Ping'an nodded and said, "Hmm, that guy is indeed asking for a beating. By the way, do you know who that Deputy Factory Manager who confronted me at the Steel Rolling Mill just now is? He was quite arrogant and didn't care about the injured worker at all."

He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "I didn't pay attention, but that Deputy Factory Manager doesn't look like a good person at all. I think that guy is definitely not a good official, or he got in by relying on family connections."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then I'll have to see what kind of person is capable of being a Deputy Factory Manager," Wan Ping'an said with a cold laugh.

"Wan Ping'an, don't be impulsive. You are still a student; you need to be mindful of your influence. And that Deputy Factory Manager is, after all, our leader." ===== CHAPTER 826 =====
