797 The Fake Acciden

The next morning, Lin Wenwen got up early and went to Mrs. Lin's place. Every since the abduction, Mrs. Lin had always been keeping a close eye on her granddaughter. Even though Lin Feng had returned, she still watched Lin Xiaolu closely. She had also found her a couple of bodyguards.

The bald, pretty-looking, tall and strong Qian Xiaoai was the leader of Lin Xiaolu's bodyguards.

Lin Wenwen didn't go straight to Yuan Tianxing. She knew that he would go to the construction site in the afternoon and stay in his office with work in the morning. She asked Long Qingying to watch Lu Tong for her and see what he planned to do.

Since Lu Tong was aiming at Yuan Tianxing and had asked around about him in secret, he must know that Yuan Tianxing would be at the construction site in the afternoon, and would definitely try to make contact with him there.

Lu Tong went to the construction site early in the morning. He was a space possessor and not strong, but was still a man. Despite how hard the jobs at the construction site were, he could still do some work there.

The workers at the construction site were provided with food, rice, and flour. More importantly, they were able to earn credits!

Therefore, Lu Tong found a job at the construction site when he arrived at the base, even though he didn't want to do heavy work. He was waiting for his chance to join some zombie-hunting squad or carry out a mission together with the army.

After only one hour of work, someone with concern asked if he needed to rest. "Lu Tong, are you tired? You go and get some rest if you're tired."

Lu Tong had been working hard these days at the construction site. In order to leave people a good impression and arouse their sympathy, he made a great effort.

Some of those workers were commoners, and some had superpowers. They were all impressed by Lu Tong. He was slim and not tall, but was very active in work. He was willing to do all kinds of hard work, and would often bring them water or offer them help. Some heavy works were difficult for him, yet he managed to complete them.

They felt that he was a nice young man, too skinny though. He looked pale, so they were worried that he might not be able to cope with the constructional works.

"Ah, I'm fine! I can do a little more," Lu Tong responded while shoveling the concrete into the bucket that was about to be lifted to a high place. His pale face was covered in sweat, but wearing a humble smile.

"Come and have some water then. Take the work slow. You don't want to ruin your health. Look at your little body. You're making us worried," A middle-aged man laughed and said.

Lu Tong felt impatient. Yet, he maintained that smile as he shook his head and responded, "It's okay, I'm okay!"

His face was ghastly pale. In fact, he felt very uncomfortable. He didn't sleep the last night and came here to work early in the morning. He did that on purpose. Staying up all night added with doing heavy work the entire morning would allow him to carry out his plan.

He wasn't feeling well, but he had to pretend to be fine. That was why he was a little irritated. He couldn't show that on his face though.

In the afternoon, the managers on the construction site all turned a little nervous.

Seeing them, Lu Tong knew that Yuan Tianxing was coming. He immediately walked to a scaffold and knocked on it. In response, a worker on the scaffold looked down at them. Lu Tong made eye contact with him, then nodded slightly, and the worker nodded back at him.

Then, Lu Tong climbed onto the scaffold.

Yuan Tianxing showed up together with Chen Yuting, followed by Lu Junjie and some others. wearing safety helmets. They talked to each other while observing the construction work.

"We have more people now. I think this area will be done in about ten days. Have you confirmed the area on the other side yet?" Chen Yuting asked Yuan Tianxing.

By the other side, he surely meant the other side of the base. Lin Qiao said that the base would be divided into two parts. The part for humans was mostly completed, and only a small section of the fence wall was still under construction.

When this side of the wall was built up, the works on the other side would start.

Yuan Tianxing nodded and said, "Yes. Chief has confirmed it before she left."

While walking, they looked at the map and also asked questions to the managers near them.

Right at that moment, a scream was heard from above them. "Hu! Be careful!"

People gave a start and immediately looked up. They saw Lu Tong lying face down on the scaffold, holding the hand of a man who fell off the scaffold.

The man was hanging in the air, holding Lu Tong's hand. He looked panicked, shouting 'help'.

That man weighed over fifty kilometers while Lu Tong was short and skinny. He was holding that man's hand with all his strength. His veins even bulged on his forehead, making his pretty face look a little scary.

"Dangerous! Help them!" Someone burst in a shout.

Yuan Tianxing had his expression changed immediately. As he reached out a hand, an earth platform rose from the ground and soon held that man up.

That man climbed back onto the scaffold in panic. Lu Tong squatted beside him, his face covered in sweat. "You're safe now…" he murmured.

Before he could finish, Lu Tong had his eyes rolled slightly upward and then shivered a little before falling down.

That man had just calmed down slightly, but seeing Lu Tong fall gave him another start. "Oi! Lu Tong! Lu Tong!"

At that moment, the people on the ground who took fright just now heard the man shouting, "Captain! Lu Tong passed out! Come, come up and help!"

As people brought Lu Tong down in a flurry, Yuan Tianxing and Chen Yuting walked over and saw his pretty but ghastly pale face. His forehead and nose tips were all covered in tiny sweat drops.

"How is he?" Yuan Tianxing looked at Lu Tong's pale lips and asked with a slight frown.

"I… I don't know! I think he's too tired. He's been working very hard lately, and just now he tried to drag me up there. I think he's exhausted," said the flustered man who was saved by Yuan Tianxing with his earth power earlier.

Yuan Tianxing silently looked at Lu Tong's face, which was as white as a sheet. Chen Yuting, who was standing beside him, said, "Send him to the medical department. What are you waiting for?"

"Yes, sir!" The mangers who were in charge of the area carried Lu Tong away hurriedly. Meanwhile, Yuan Tianxing and Chen Yuting continued their work, not seeming to be affected by what happened earlier.

Not far away, Lin Wenwen quietly watched the whole thing from an inconspicuous corner. She narrowed her eyes when Lu Tong was carried away, then turned and left.
