Taking advantage of the moment of silence, Lu An Ning quickly helped Zhong Ling up from the ground. Her hands were stepped on and her fingers were red and swollen.
"You have just injured my colleague. I will take her for a detailed examination later. I will send the subsequent compensation to your unit."
Now everyone was confused. They just wanted to come here to make a trending search, but who would have thought that they would have to deal with compensation.
Someone stood up and said, "It was a chaotic scene just now, and we didn't want to see the young lady fall. This is at most an accidental injury. It was just a light step, so why should we pay compensation?"
Lu Anning curled his lips. "I don't care how my colleague got injured. It's a fact that her hands were stepped on and swollen. So many eyes were watching, and there's surveillance footage in the corridor as evidence. You guys want to deny it? She makes a living with her hands. Medical expenses, lost wages, mental damages, and we don't even know if she's broken bones. I'm her direct superior, shouldn't I seek justice for her? Also, I was bumped into earlier. I can request a medical examination and hold you all accountable."
When everyone heard this, they were immediately confused.
They had assumed that even if the contractor came to resolve the situation, they would be in a state of panic, as they would be in the wrong if something went wrong. Unexpectedly, someone showed up today who didn't play by the rules.
At that moment, some people were immediately unhappy.
"Aren't you kidding me? It's not that serious! She was injured for a reason."
Lu Anning smiled with satisfaction: "When you saw me just now, you accused my company without asking any questions. Isn't that indiscriminate? I just learned it from you."
Suddenly, the reporters were speechless.
Is this possible?
No one noticed, but something seemed to have quietly changed. Zhong Ling was so stunned when she saw Lu Anning calm the situation with just a few words that she even forgot the pain in her hand.
"I don't want to embarrass you, and please don't embarrass me. I just hope that before things are clarified, you will report the situation truthfully, without exaggeration or favoring any party. The demolition and reconstruction of suburban land is a project that the government strongly supports, and it is also for the better development of Jiangcheng in the future. I think you all also hope that our city will become better and better!"
With such a heavy accusation placed upon them, the last two or three people who wanted to refute them swallowed their words. They couldn't afford to be accused of affecting urban development.
Lu Anning smiled gracefully and said, "I think there must be some misunderstanding. We will definitely discuss this with the public and resolve it peacefully. As for the expenses we need to bear, Feiyun Technology will definitely not shirk its responsibility."
Seeing that this group of reporters was about to be persuaded by Lu An Ning, Li Shun, who was hiding aside and watching the show, couldn't help it.
There was a sound of "ouch" from the bed, and everyone's attention shifted to Old Man Li on the bed.
"Don't listen to this woman, she's just trying to fool you. My dad can't even get out of bed, and she's just trying to shirk responsibility. You just think my parents don't understand, and you're using threats and bribes to coerce them into signing. Isn't this forced demolition? You're just bullying us ordinary people just because you have a few bucks. You're amateurs. Don't even think about demolishing this house!"
Lu An Ning inadvertently saw the father and son exchange glances, and Old Man Li wailed while holding his injured right leg. Lu An Ning immediately became suspicious.
She had heard Zhong Ling mention before that Old Man Li's family was the first to agree to the demolition, and at that time, Li Shun hadn't returned yet. It seemed that the problem lay with Li Shun.
The sharp eyes stared directly at Li Shun, making him feel uncomfortable. He asked guiltily, "Why are you staring at me? Did I say something wrong?"
"Mr. Li, your village's reconstruction is a key project this year, and the government strongly supports it. As for the negotiated demolition, everyone is treated equally. Compensation is calculated based on the floor area of the house, and a substantial subsidy has been added. Other villagers have no objections. May I ask, what is your dissatisfaction, Mr. Li? We can discuss it."
Seeing this, Li Shun snorted coldly: "This matter is non-negotiable! Don't think you are so great just because you have a few bucks. I don't agree to demolishing the house. Otherwise, beat me to death!"
"If Mr. Li doesn't agree, there must be a reason. You can tell us and we can find a solution together."
Lu An Ning asked patiently, using courtesy first and then force, so as not to give others an opportunity to talk nonsense.
"No need to settle! I refuse to negotiate, I just can't demolish it. What can you do to me? You hurt my dad, I'm going to find a lawyer to file a complaint against you. You want to make money on our land? No way."
Everyone understood that Li Shunming was clearly playing dirty and didn't want the project to proceed smoothly.
Zhong Ling couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to go up and argue with Li Shun, but was stopped by Lu An Ning.
Don't argue with fools!
She smiled slightly and asked Old Man Li, who was lying on the bed groaning, "Uncle Li, are you sure you don't want to accept any of our company's conditions and refuse to be demolished?"
What Lu Anning said was, any conditions!
Old man Li on the bed paused obviously, subconsciously looked at Li Shun next to him, hesitating and unable to make a decision.
Li Shun answered first: "Don't ask. I am my parents' only son. I have the final say in this family. I said I refuse the demolition. There is nothing to discuss. Stop lying to my father."
"Okay." Lu Anning agreed readily. "Since Mr. Li is firm in his stance and we won't discuss it any further, we can only respect Mr. Li's opinion. I will go back and explain the situation to the company's top management and work with the designer to revise the design. I won't make things difficult for you."
