With Li Susu's assurance, the managers of the two construction sites temporarily stabilized the situation.
The decision to take a day off temporarily kept these workers who wanted to leave.
Even so, the workers continued to discuss the matter privately.
"Who did the boss offend? The commotion last night didn't seem like that of ordinary thugs causing trouble."
"Nine times out of ten, it's a real triad."
"That scarred guy leading the group doesn't look like a good person. He might actually have a murder on his hands!"
"Many people are coveting this piece of land; it's probably the local bigwigs."
These workers were quite knowledgeable; as they chatted, they actually figured out some things.
With Wu Xiong hospitalized, the heavy responsibility of managing the construction site fell on the shoulders of two other people, who were now sitting in the office, worrying.
"Although President Li promised to compensate everyone, we don't know if something like this will happen again tonight."
"Old Liu, I'm starting to panic."
The man called Old Liu silently smoked his cigarette, a deep sorrow lingering between his brows.
He was closest to Wu Xiong last night and saw everything clearly.
When that scarred man struck, he didn't consider Wu Xiong's life or death at all.
Such a person is truly willing to risk their life.
They are just ordinary people, how can they fight back?
"Old Liu, say something!"
Old Liu stubbed out his cigarette in frustration and sighed.
"Then what do you suggest we do? Engineer Wu is in the hospital right now, and his injuries are so severe that he won't be able to leave anytime soon."
"This project might just end up being our responsibility. Are you going to just run away at the last minute?"
Upon hearing this, the other party sighed resignedly, their tone becoming increasingly impatient.
"What if someone comes to cause trouble again tonight? We can't fight anymore. If someone dies, we won't get the money, and we'll face a lawsuit!"
"If the employer tries to shirk responsibility, won't we be the ones taking the blame?"
The other party's concerns are not unfounded; if things escalate, the person in charge will be the first to bear the blame.
They've seen enough of these capitalists' tricks; countless people have been ruined and their families torn apart by them.
Old Liu shook his head. "I don't think so. President Li went to the hospital in person last night. Didn't you see him?"
"If Mr. Wu hadn't been properly settled, would his wife have agreed to this?"
Both men had a close relationship with Wu Xiong and were familiar with his family situation.
Wu Xiong's wife is a straightforward and outspoken woman with a calculating personality. If Li Susu hadn't made proper arrangements, she probably would have come to cause trouble long ago.
There's no news right now, so I guess they've been settled in.
"Although President Li is a woman, I've heard she's a good person and very loyal."
"Don't underestimate women. Did you see those bodyguards at the door? They were all sent by President Li. Let's stop sighing and worrying here."
"If anyone causes trouble again tonight, call the police as soon as possible and arrest them all. That would be the end of it!"
Old Liu swore and finally made up his mind.
“If we really cancel this huge project, we won’t be able to find any other work for the time being, so I think we should just leave it at that!”
"Let's see how things go."
Hearing Lao Liu say this, the other party agreed.
"Alright, let's see how things go tonight."
