After saving the money, Wang Jincái walked out of the bank with his back straight, feeling more confident than ever before.

Money emboldens a man!

Wang Jincái finally understood this saying.

He squeezed the 500 yuan reward from the project department in his bag, then squeezed the bank card where he had just deposited the money, and a smile appeared on his face.

There was still one thing left to deal with, and that was the issue with his phone.

Wang Jincái thought about Lin Yihai's suspicion that there were photos on his phone.

What should he do?

According to Wang Jincái's original plan, he would hide the phone to make Lin Yihai suspicious. However, after arriving in town, Wang Jincái secretly laughed at himself for overthinking it. Lin Yihai might know that he had come to town today, and if he knew, he would also suspect that Wang Jincái had moved the contents of the phone elsewhere. Therefore, even if he held the phone, Lin Yihai wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

When he saw the black internet cafe in town, Wang Jincái smiled. He would say that he had saved the photos on a computer and see what Lin Yihai would do.

Besides, with 50,000 yuan, even if he couldn't work, he wouldn't worry too much about feeding his family.

Feeling relaxed, Wang Jincái thought about watching a video before returning to the construction site.

There was a video hall in town with average conditions. Wang Jincái had been there a few times with his coworkers, who had paid for him to watch a few times. Now that Wang Jincái had money, he felt he should spend it on a video.

Of course, the most important thing was that the video hall offered all-you-can-watch for one ticket. As long as you wanted to watch, you could keep watching.

Thinking about the short erotic films between every two videos, Wang Jincái felt a bit restless.

Just as he was about to enter the video hall, he saw a crowd gathered there. When he approached, he saw an old lady lying on the ground.

What's going on?

Wang Jincái asked a nearby resident, "What happened?"

"She fainted, and no one dares to help her."

The man glanced at Wang Jincái and said this without further explanation.

Looking at the old lady, her clothes were decent, and she looked like someone from the city.

"She just suddenly fell down, who dares to help her!"

Someone whispered.

"Indeed, last time on TV, a good person helped someone and was accused."

"Even good deeds can't be done. If the old lady isn't rescued soon, she might not make it."

Hearing everyone's comments and seeing that no one dared to help, Wang Jincái looked at the old lady and felt that she really needed to be rescued, or she might not make it.

What should he do?

Thinking about the possibility of being accused if he helped, Wang Jincái really didn't want to get involved, but he couldn't bear the guilt.

Thinking about the 50,000 yuan in the bank, he gritted his teeth and walked forward.

"How do we save her?"

Wang Jincái asked the crowd.

"Son, the town hospital is just ahead. You can carry her there and see if she can be saved."

A middle-aged woman said.

Not helping someone in need is immoral!

Wang Jincái didn't think much more and carefully helped the old lady up, carrying her to the hospital. He didn't care if carrying her to the hospital was the right thing to do.

Wang Jincái thought, the 50,000 yuan was unexpectedly obtained, and if he was accused, he would just pay some money.

Wang Jincái was a very strong person, and after recovering from his injury, he felt even more energetic. Carrying an old lady, he ran as fast as a bird.

If not for the concern of jostling the old lady, Wang Jincái would have run even faster.

At the hospital, Wang Jincái ran around, took out money to pay the fees, and watched as the old lady was taken into the emergency room. He then sat on a chair in the corridor, worriedly watching the lit area.

Time passed slowly, and Wang Jincái wondered about the medical skills in town. If she died, the situation would become serious.

After a while, the door to the emergency room opened, and a doctor came out. Seeing Wang Jincái standing up, he said sternly, "The old lady fainted due to a fall and is now stable, but since we are a small hospital, it's best to transfer her to the county hospital for a thorough examination to check for any internal injuries."

Hearing that she needed to be transferred to the county hospital, Wang Jincái quickly said, "I saw her fall on the road and carried her here. I don't know her family's situation."

"Are you not her relative?"

Several people at the hospital looked at Wang Jincái in surprise.

Wang Jincái shook his head, "No."

One of the doctors said, "This condition cannot be delayed. She must be transferred to the county hospital immediately. We are worried about potential brain injuries, which could be serious."

Wang Jincái hesitated and said, "Alright, I'll accompany her to the county hospital and see if she can provide her family's phone number when she wakes up."

"That's the best."

Soon, the old lady was lifted onto an ambulance, and Wang Jincái got in. Since he had already gone this far, it wasn't in his nature to leave things unfinished, so he decided to see it through.

The ambulance then headed to the county hospital.

Looking at the old lady lying on the bed, Wang Jincái smiled bitterly. He had originally planned to watch a video today, but he ended up in this situation. Seeing the old lady's condition, Wang Jincái became worried. What if her family accused him?

However, Wang Jincái put this thought aside. He only had 50,000 yuan, and at most, he would have to pay it.

While Wang Jincái was thinking, he heard a phone ringing from a bag next to the old lady.

Slapping his thigh, Wang Jincái realized he had been so flustered that he hadn't checked if the old lady had an ID or a phone. It turned out she had a phone.

He quickly picked up the phone and saw the caller's name was "San'er."

This was good, Wang Jincái quickly answered the call.

As soon as the call connected, a loud voice came from the other end, "Mom, where are you?"

"This, brother, your mom is in the ambulance."

Wang Jincái hurriedly said.

"Your mom is in the ambulance!"

The other person immediately became agitated and started cursing.

Hearing the loud voice from the phone, Wang Jincái held the phone away from his ear and said, "I'm telling the truth, this is your mom's phone."

Hearing Wang Jincái's words, the other person fell silent for a moment, then quickly said, "What did you say? Say it again."

Wang Jincái explained that he saw the old lady fall and no one dared to help her, so he carried her to the hospital. The town hospital had decided to transfer her to the county hospital. He then said, "Come to the county hospital quickly, our ambulance is on the way."

The other person didn't respond and quickly hung up the phone.
