(Chapter Six)
“The Hero reappears, leaping over a dozen meters like a chivalrous warrior to bravely rescue a child falling from the third floor.” Such a post appeared on a well-known local forum in Yanjing.
The content of the post told of an incident that happened around nine o’clock in the evening at Yintai Department Store when a grandmother’s negligence led to a child in her arms falling from the third floor. Fortunately, a man on the first floor threw himself into the rescue and managed to catch the falling child. The child escaped serious harm, sustaining only a minor arm injury, but the young man who saved him left without making a sound.
There were also a few not-so-clear photos on the post.
But then some followers posted a few video clips, which clearly depicted the entire incident.
Surveillance footage at the third-floor elevator clearly captured an elderly woman becoming unsteady on her feet after being bumped by a young person behind her, accidentally dropping the child from her arms over the edge of the escalator.
Another video from the first-floor escalator area showed people scattering to avoid something falling from above, but a young man quickly rushed forward, pushing past two individuals in front of him, and with a swift leap, he caught the child in his arms and fell to the ground with the child.
After catching the child, the young man, unable to stay on his feet, fell to the ground but still made every effort to protect the child.
Then, the young man checked the rescued child’s injuries and provided medical treatment to both injured children.
After doing all of this, “The Hero” pulled his girlfriend through the crowd and left.
Another video was taken by a surveillance camera at the entrance of Yintai Department Store. The person who shared the video said that after “The Hero” and his girlfriend saved someone, they gracefully left, keeping a low profile and not seeking fame.
At the end of the post were photos from the hospital posted by a doctor. The child saved by “The Hero” had only a scraped skin with no other injuries. The child’s brother, however, who fell from the escalator, had multiple injuries but, after various examinations, it turned out there was nothing serious, just some superficial skin wounds.
The doctor also mentioned that “The Hero” must also be a doctor because the medicine he applied had an excellent effect; the swelling at the site of the children’s injuries had subsided, and miraculously, the wounds had started to scab over.
Once the post was made, there were countless viewers and commenters, all of whom praised “The Hero,” and many even lauded him as “The Most Beautiful Lift Hero.”
Someone later commented that he was one of the witnesses and said that “The Hero” was truly handsome, fully deserving of the title “The Most Beautiful Lift Hero.”
He then added another post, saying that “The Hero’s” girlfriend was also very beautiful, and it was because he was looking at her that he failed to notice the child being caught below—otherwise, he would have also helped.
The thread quickly reached several hundred floors, and after a few hundred floors, someone else posted clearer and more direct photos of “The Hero.”
Thus, the front-facing image of Luo Ziling, the brave savior known as “The Hero,” was exposed to the public.
Also exposed was the beautiful face of Ouyang Huihui.
It wasn’t just the local forums spreading this positive news, but several of Yanjing’s television media outlets also reported on the event in their evening news broadcasts.
A beautiful female anchor from Yanjing TV Channel One, with a moved tone, shared the news with the viewers in front of their TVs, saying they were the first to get the news and interspersed all the videos within the news broadcast.
“According to the reactions of those at the scene, the ‘Most Beautiful Lift Hero’ must have been injured. He didn’t have time to correct his position and rushed forward with rapid movements, paying no attention to what was underfoot, his eyes fixed solely on the falling child. The child was caught, but he himself was injured. After rescuing the child, he left quietly without leaving his name or telling anyone he was hurt.”
After Luo Ziling’s image and several other photos were broadcasted, the beautiful anchorwoman continued emotionally, “In today’s society, there are still many actions brimming with positive energy. I believe that the story of this ‘Most Beautiful Lift Hero’ will move many people. Our reporters will try to find this beautiful lifter. Of course, the young man who hit the old lady, we also condemn him; he nearly cost a young life. We hope this reckless person will step forward and sincerely apologize to the victim and their family.”
Yanjing TV Channel One’s evening news program had very high ratings, and Luo Ziling’s image and his deeds became even more widely known through the TV broadcast.
In the Yang family’s villa, the living room TV was on, displaying the Yanjing TV Channel One program, which was the very program that Yang Yunlin watched every night. The program, focused on hot social topics, had been personally directed to go on air by Yang Yunlin after his promotion, and he often found much useful information in its reports.
Today, he was discussing matters with his daughter, Yang Qingyin, while the TV was on.
Yang Yunlin had called Yang Qingyin, asking her to find some time to return home as he had important matters to discuss with her.
Today was Friday, and Yang Qingyin had come back as per his instructions.
After dinner, Yang Yunlin had a lengthy discussion with Yang Qingyin about matters related to the family’s rise and fall, and gradually shifted the topic to Luo Ziling’s father, Luo Xusheng. Yang Yunlin said a great deal about the evil deeds Luo Xusheng had committed in the past, painting him as good as worthless before moving on to discuss Luo Ziling.
He earnestly told Yang Qingyin that if she continued to entangle with Luo Ziling, there would never be a good outcome for the two of them, no matter what. Speaking as a father, he hoped that Yang Qingyin would withdraw early and not fall into the trap of love, or else she might end up as a second Ling Ruonan.
Yang Yunlin bluntly told Yang Qingyin that if she insisted on being with Luo Ziling, then no one in the Yang Family would accept it, and she would lose all her status in the family, possibly facing even more severe consequences.
However, to all he said, Yang Qingyin showed little reaction, merely stating that she had grown up and would be able to determine right from wrong in her actions.
Towards the end of the conversation, Yang Yunlin became a bit agitated and once again brought up the matter of asking Yang Qingyin to transfer schools.
Yang Yunlin gave Yang Qingyin two choices, one was to transfer to Zhonghai to study, and the other was to study abroad.
“Since that Luo guy is studying at Yan University, and you don’t want to leave him, you’ll have to study somewhere else,” Yang Yunlin didn’t hide his intentions.
But his request was met with Yang Qingyin’s refusal nonetheless.
“I want to study at Yan University until I graduate,” Yang Qingyin said without giving her father any face, “Are you going too far by trying to ruin your daughter’s future for your own selfish interests and so-called grudges?”
Just as Yang Qingyin was saying this a bit excitedly, the TV program broadcasted the story of Luo Ziling, the “Most Beautiful Lift Hero,” and his rescue.
After recognizing Luo Ziling in the TV program, both Yang Yunlin and Yang Qingyin stopped talking and watched the broadcast.
When the program ended, Yang Yunlin said to Yang Qingyin with a mocking expression, “Look at your choice of boyfriend, he’s dating another woman. You actually fell for someone who takes pleasure in playing with women’s feelings. Did you see that? That beautiful woman is his girlfriend. Since he already has a girlfriend, why are you still causing a scene? Do you really need to debase yourself like that?”
Saying this, Yang Yunlin stormed off to his room to sleep.
