Chapter 402: Yi Muyang Is Not Here

e any trace of herShu Tinglan had nowhere to go, his face burning with pain, his heart crushed by a giant wheel. 。Zuo Yu'an firmly gripped her wrist, standing protectively in front of Wen Jian. The i...Before, Lao Ding's participation in competitions, both big and small, was always arranged by Yi Muyang. He could basically rely on competition income. Yi Muyang acted like his agent. Now that Yi Muyang is gone, many of his competitions have been forced to be suspended, so he's spending more than he's making.

Shu Tinglan probably understood what was going on, and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. Yi Muyang was such an honorable and emotional person, to just abandon his brother like this must mean he was facing a real hardship.

Two people in the conference room went over Lao Ding's sponsorship information for this competition, as well as the original promotional ads and evidence like posters with prize money details and his ranking from the previous competition. She already had a plan in mind.

"Sister-in-law, besides the issue of withholding prize money this time, there's another even more infuriating thing. One of our athletes was unexpectedly injured during the competition and is still lying in the hospital. Originally, for our competition, the organizer would purchase high-amount insurance, and the insurance would cover medical expenses. However, the organizer didn't even buy accident insurance, and they refuse to pay for the medical bills."

After Lao Ding finished speaking, he looked at Shu Tinglan somewhat embarrassedly: "If sister-in-law is convenient, could you please help me get the medical expenses from that athlete"

He felt embarrassed. His own problems were already a burden on his sister-in-law, but the injured athlete's medical expenses were more important than his winnings.

"Okay, I'll take you to the hospital first." Shu Tinglan readily agreed. Getting along with Lao Ding or Yi Mu Tang and the others was straightforward; there was no need for any complicated thoughts. They were simple and kind. Even though they themselves were facing difficulties, they were focused on helping those who were even more struggling. They had passion, responsibility, and a sense of justice. In them, she saw the most shining aspects of human nature. So even if she was busy, she happily agreed to help him.

I rushed to the hospital to see the injured athlete, Xiao Gao. He is only 22 years old. This time, it was because the racetrack was not standardized that he fell off his motorcycle halfway through the race, injuring his waist. He almost became paraplegic and could never walk again. Fortunately, after successful surgery, the tragedy was avoided.

But the high cost of medical care and subsequent rehabilitation left Xiaogao's parents feeling desperate.

Xiao Gao's parents, upon seeing Lao Ding arrive, were overcome with emotion and shouted at him.

“You still have the face to come here If you hadn't dragged Xiao Gao into this competition, he wouldn't have gotten hurt. He's only 22 years old! How is he supposed to live his life now”

To cover the medical expenses, the family has already spent all their savings and borrowed every penny they could. But it's only a drop in the bucket, unable to fill this financial hole.

Lao Ding stood there, head bowed, allowing Xiaogao's parents to scold him.

Xiao Gao shouted from his hospital bed, “Stop arguing, this has nothing to do with Ding Ge.” They were all in the same line. No one could have predicted the accident in the competition. He just considered himself unlucky.

Then Lao Ding brought Shu Tinglan to Xiao Gao and said, "This is Lawyer Shu, who will help us."

Xiao Gao's parents, hearing that she was a lawyer, hurriedly stepped forward and grasped her hands: "Lawyer Shu, you must help us."

As she spoke, tears suddenly welled up and rolled down her cheeks.

"He's so young, if he doesn't recover well, he might be stuck in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. It's all those damn organizers' fault, they didn't do their jobs properly and ran away faster than anyone else when things went wrong."

"I will do my best."

Xiao is tall and slender, a very handsome young man. Even though he is lying in bed right now and his lower body can't move temporarily, it doesn't seem to affect his mood. Judging from the phone screen beside him, he should be watching a video game competition.

This reminded Shu Tinglan of the first time she saw Yi Muyang. He had broken a leg and needed the nurse to administer an IV in his foot because he wanted to keep his hands free to play games. Hospital life seemed like a vacation for him.

Thinking of him, I couldn't help but let out a silent sigh.

After leaving the hospital, Lao Ding took her to Feng Lei Club, the organizer of the race. Feng Lei Club is located in the suburbs. Besides a two-story office building at the front, there's a training ground at the back. At this time, many players were doing physical training. Seeing Lao Ding bringing a woman over, they whistled and laughed from afar.

"Lao Ding, is this your girlfriend"

"Coming here with your girlfriend to ask for money, isn't that a bit cowardly"

Lao Ding was a rough person, usually arguing and even swearing at these contestants. However, with his sister-in-law present today, those unrestrained words were extremely jarring.

They roared at him, "Shut your yaps, all of you, and be quiet!"

The players, fueled by the electrifying atmosphere of the training ground, started honking their car horns with abandon. The deafening cacophony echoed through the air as they laughed, jeered, and flaunted their prowess.

Shu Tinglan saw that Lao Ding's fists were clenched tightly, with veins bulging on his arms, but he always held back and didn't shout at the other person.

“I’ll just hold my tongue for now, these idiots,” Lao Ding gritted his teeth and said. He was outnumbered and had his sister-in-law with him, so he couldn’t risk putting her in danger because of him.

Lao Ding is not a reckless man, he knows how to judge the situation and act accordingly. Especially after Yi Muyang left, he has learned to control himself, not being impulsive or causing trouble.

Shu Tinglan stood aside, watching with a tinge of sadness. Lao Ding was never like ordinary people; he had a prosthetic leg, yet he persevered on this battlefield with unwavering tenacity. The effort he put in was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Now that she hasn't received her own bonus and has been running around for other injured people instead, it deeply moved her. After seeing too much of the dark side of human nature, to see the bright side again, she felt that everything was worth it.

The head of Feng Lei came out to meet them, but didn't even let them into the conference room. He just listened from the training hall outside.

Speaking is harsh.

“Old Ding, I’m not saying this to criticize you, a gentleman loves wealth but acquires it through proper means. You came here like this, isn't that blackmail”

"Given your physical condition, you're completely unsuitable for our competition. I only gave you a spot because of Yi Mu Yang. There's a 2,000 yuan prize for participating. What else do you want"

"As for the bonus, is it written in the contract Don't be so naive. A high bonus is just a publicity stunt to attract people. There's no way they'll really give you 100,000. Stop daydreaming."

The head person only came out to say a few more words because Lao Ding had hired a lawyer, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered with him at all.

Old Ding was tall and strong, he felt like he could knock the person in charge down with one push. When he got angry, he was pretty scary.

“I'll settle my own scores with you later. What about Xiao Gao Xiao Gao had an accident on your track, are you not responsible”

When Xiaogao was mentioned, the responsible person's face showed a hint of guilt: "Xiaogao was sent to the hospital by us, and we also paid part of his initial medical expenses. How can you say we didn't care Besides, he himself did not abide by the competition rules, and what happened is something we couldn't control." of the reasons why Zhu Yuan didn't attend the funeral. The old man had emphasized many times before his death that everything should be kept simple in case of his passing, and there should be no extr...
