Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 92

Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Rescue Has Arrived

Proven correct, Jiang Cheng and Director Leng’s assumptions were spot on.

After arranging the passengers, the train conductor rushed back with his team.

Hearing the loud bang halfway, they accelerated their pace desperately.

Another loud booming sound echoed, and they saw the bridge ahead collapsing right before their eyes. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

As the dust and debris scattered and fell away, people on both sides of the ravine caught sight of each other.

"Someone’s over there! Are they here to save us?"

"What’s the use of having people over there? We have no way to get across."

"This damned Hua Xia, should’ve never come!"

Apparently, several foreign friends reached their breaking point; their speech rate increased rapidly, laden with profanities.

Director Leng casually asked Jiang Cheng, "What does this F word mean?"

"Similar to the way we greet mothers when arguing in Hua Xia."

Director Leng, suddenly enlightened, deeply remembered this F word.

He reckoned he might find it handy.

Few words, but they work.

Jiang Cheng walked towards the foreign friends while Director Leng negotiated across the ravine about how to proceed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, who was just protecting you?"

Jiang Cheng’s remark momentarily silenced the foreigners.

One of them, with a defiant look, said, "Who asked you to save us, a bunch of idiots!"

Jiang Cheng, hearing this, showed seriousness for the first time.

Her resolute steps were difficult yet unwavering in the mud.

She stared directly at Smith.

"Mr. Smith, you think he’s foolish, yet this person you deem foolish just risked his life to save you, with a dislocated arm now."

"He saved you out of duty, responsibility, and innate kindness—not because he values your character."

Smith pointed at Jiang Cheng.

"You! You’re too much! Are you saying I’m a despicable person?"

"I believe Mr. Smith, with his intelligence, can comprehend that."

Jiang Cheng stood firm.

Some matters can be conceded, others are worth sacrificing life for.

Smith, burning with anger, used his status as leverage.

"Do you know who I am? I’m going to complain about you!"

Jiang Cheng shrugged, indifferent.

"Go ahead, but just to let you know, I’m merely a temporary translator, not their employee."

With tensions high, Jenny and others rushed over to mediate.

Jiang Cheng continued staring at Smith, said, "Our demands are minimal. Please apologize and thank the comrade who selflessly saved you."

Smith stayed silent.

Jiang Cheng added fuel to the fire, "So, these are the gentlemen of your country. Quite an eye-opener. I hope Mr. Smith shares the story of berating his savior after returning home."

Smith tried several times to speak, but Jiang Cheng’s eloquence rendered him speechless.

The core truth was, deep down, he knew he was unjustifiable.

Under the persuasion of those around, Smith finally decided to apologize.

"Hold on! Mr. Smith doesn’t understand Chinese, I believe you should apologize in Mandarin to show sincerity."

"Don’t know it? No worries, I can teach you."

Jiang Cheng quickly returned to her enthusiastic translator role, determined to teach Smith how to say ’sorry’.

The staff member being apologized to was puzzled, wondering why the apology was directed at him?

However, he wasn’t foolish; his heart was inwardly delighted.

Having been with this group, he had already harbored undisclosed anger!

After Smith said sorry, Jiang Cheng promptly taught other foreigners to say thank you.
