"Something happened, something happened!"

"Edgar Austin eye was injured by the arc light! Please help!"

On the construction site, some people screamed, some ran, and some were anxiously dialing the ambulance number. The whole scene was a mess.

On the welding field of the construction site, Edgar Austin huddled up in a ball. His left eye was burned black by the arc light, exuding a burnt smell. Blood, water and dust mingled on his face, giving people a miserable sight.

"Hey, it's such a pity that one of the eyes of such a young and handsome baby has been lost like this." Someone sighed.

"He also has a sister at home who is admitted to college. If he is blind, how can his sister go to college?"

"Hey, Edgar Austin is a very nice young man. He always rushes to do work and is kind to others. How could something like this happen to him? God is so cruel."

There was a lot of discussion and many people were sighing.

Edgar Austin's mother died of illness at an early age, and his father disappeared mysteriously five years ago. That year, he happened to be admitted to Kyoto University, but considering his sister Brynlee Austin, who was still in junior high school, he tore up the admission notice with tears in his eyes. When his sister asked him, he said he missed the exam by a few points. From then on, he started working on construction sites, doing whatever he could as long as he could make money. Now, his sister Brynlee Austin has also been admitted to Kyoto University, but something like this happened to him...

After a brief period of numbness, severe pain swept over him. Edgar Austin's body twitched, and then his vision went dark and he passed out.

Someone was calling his name in his ears, but he could no longer hear the sounds. In the darkness, he felt as if his body was floating on a river, ups and downs, heading towards hell.

Time is imperceptible to a person who has fainted.

I don't know how long it took before Edgar Austin opened his eyes. He saw a glimmer of light, and then saw a fat face, that was the face of his hair pony Kaiden Barlow An. However, because he could only open one right eye, he couldn't see very clearly, and it felt like a double image.

"Edgar, are you awake?"Kaiden Barlow's voice trembled slightly, looking very excited.

"Where am I?" As he spoke, Edgar Austin suddenly thought of something, and he reached out to touch his left eye. There was gauze wrapped around his left eye, and it hurt when he touched it.

Kaiden Barlow grabbed Edgar Austin's hand and said, "Don't worry, Edgar, the doctor said that your left eye may not be blind. If you treat it well, it will be fine."

"Not necessarily? What does it mean not necessarily?"Edgar Austin was very anxious and a little out of control.

Kaiden Barlow hesitated to speak. He seemed to know something but did not dare to say it.

"Say it!"Edgar Austin became even more anxious.

At this time, a middle-aged man walked in from the door. He was slightly fat, wearing a famous brand suit, wearing gold and silver, and he was very wealthy. He is the owner of the construction company, Anderson Chambers.

Seeing Anderson Chambers coming in, Kaiden Barlow moved some places.

Edgar Austin struggled to sit up from the bed and said hello, "President Anderson, why are you..."

Before he finished speaking, Anderson Chambers interrupted him, "Edgar Austin, what did you do? Not only burned a welding machine, but also burned a transformer. Do you know that a welding machine plus one A transformer costs more than 20,000 yuan? This is not included. The construction period has been delayed, so who is responsible for the loss?"

A burst of anger suddenly rushed into Edgar Austin's heart. Just now, he thought Anderson Chambers was here to visit him, but he didn't expect that this guy was here to settle scores!

Kaiden Barlow couldn't help it anymore and said angrily: "Anderson Chambers, what do you mean? Huh? There is a 90% chance that one of my friend's eyes will be blind, and you still fucking say such things, you Is he a human?"

These words were like a thunder exploding in Edgar Austin's head, and he was completely stunned.

Kaiden Barlow suddenly realized that he had let something slip, but the words he said were like water that was thrown out and could not be recovered. He was stunned there, not knowing how to comfort Edgar Austin.

At this time, Anderson Chambers sneered, "What does his blindness have to do with me? Do we have an employment contract? No? So, I'm not afraid even if you take it to court."

Edgar Austin's face was livid with anger and his teeth were clenching.

Anderson Chambers was still adding fuel to the fire, "I sent you to the hospital because you were pitiful. I paid 10,000 yuan for the hospitalization fee. You can be discharged when you finish the treatment. In addition, I will pay Please leave a message, this 10,000 yuan is enough to settle the matter, don’t look for me again, it’s useless to look for me.”

"Asshole!"Kaiden Barlow said angrily: "I'm blind in one eye. Do you want to settle it with ten thousand yuan?"

Anderson Chambers raised his finger and pointed at Kaiden Barlow's nose, and suddenly turned his face, "You kid, stop worrying about this. If you want to make trouble, I will help you! Damn it, you don't want to ask me who Anderson Chambers is. If you try to make trouble again, I will I will destroy you in minutes!"

At this moment, Edgar Austin suddenly grabbed the water glass on the bedside table and smashed it over.

There was a muffled sound, and Anderson Chambers was caught off guard and his head was suddenly hit with a gash. Bloody red blood flowed down, wetting half of his big face covered with flesh in the blink of an eye.

"Damn! How dare you hit me!"Anderson Chambers was furious.

Suddenly two tall and thin young men rushed in at the door. They had tattoos, earrings, and fierce eyes. You could tell at a glance that they were gangsters.

"Hit me!"Anderson Chambers pointed at Edgar Austin on the hospital bed and shouted.

The two young men rushed forward.

Kaiden Barlow turned around to block Edgar Austin behind him, and the fists of the two young men fell hard on his head and back. Kaiden Barlow gritted his teeth and endured, using his body to protect Edgar Austin, and at the same time suppressing Edgar Austin to prevent him from being impulsive.

"What are you doing?" A nurse appeared at the door pushing a tool cart. She was stunned for a moment, then screamed: "Someone is coming, there's a fight!"

The nurse turned and ran to call security.

"Wait for me, kid!"Anderson Chambers said harshly, turned around and walked out the door. The two young men also left with him.

Kaiden Barlow then let go of Edgar Austin. Several bumps had appeared on his head, and he grimaced in pain.

"Why are you blocking me?"Edgar Austin lost control of his emotions and shouted, "I want to kill him!"

"Kill him? He's a rotten person, but you still have a sister to take care of. He enjoys everything from wine, sex and wealth, but you haven't even had a good day. Is it a good deal for you?"Kaiden Barlow sighed, "Edgar, calm down!"

Edgar Austin is actually not an impulsive and reckless person. The absence of his parents has allowed him to develop an independent and mature character. But today's situation is really too bad. When he thinks about it, there is a 90% chance that his eyes will be damaged. If he goes blind, he won't be able to calm down.

"I'm sorry, Kaiden An..."Edgar Austin wanted to say something but didn't say it. He was so confused.

Kaiden Barlow patted Edgar Austin on the shoulder, "Why are you being polite to me? If it were you, you would do the same for me."

Indeed, when Kaiden Barlow was bullied in the past, Edgar Austin always rushed to protect him and stood up for him.

"Do you want me to tell Brynlee?"

"No, don't tell her."Edgar Austin said nervously: "She is now giving tutoring lessons at school. She will be anxious if she finds out."

"But she will know one day."

"Then..."Edgar Austin bit his lip, "Let's talk about it then."

At this time, the nurse walked into the ward with the security guard. The security guard asked Edgar Austin some information, while the nurse treated the wound on Kaiden Barlow's head. After a while, the nurse and security guard left, and the matter was settled.

Kaiden Barlow stayed with Edgar Austin until night before leaving the hospital. After he left, Edgar Austin couldn't sleep. He thought a lot. He thought about the cost of medicine, his future, and his sister Brynlee Austin and her dream of going to Kyoto University. Later, tiredness came over him, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He didn't know how long he slept, but his left eye started to itch, and he woke up. It was an indescribable itching, itchy to the core, itchy to death.

Edgar Austin called the nurse, but the nurse didn't respond for a long time. He found the pager on the bedside and pressed it, but the pager was broken.

"Unlucky, how long will I be unlucky? What kind of shabby hospital is this?"Edgar Austin was very depressed. He got up from the bed and walked cautiously towards the door.

He originally wanted to go out to the nurse's station, but when he reached the door, he stopped.

"The doctors and nurses here know that I have no money, and because of Anderson Chambers troubles during the day, they are even more convinced that I can't afford the medical bills. I asked them to check and treat my wounds, and it was late at night, and they definitely ignored me. , maybe you’ll give me a blank stare. Forget it, I’ll just endure it.” After thinking about it, he turned around again.

The bathroom door was open, and Edgar Austin saw himself in the mirror.

He is actually not bad looking, with handsome features and good looks. Coupled with a height of 1.8 meters and strong body curves, he is the kind of young man who is very sunny and handsome. It's a pity that all this seems to be leaving him. If he is blind in his left eye and has a big scar on his face, women will stay away from him when they see him, right?

Edgar Austin felt sad about himself in the mirror.

A burst of itching suddenly struck, interrupting Edgar Austin's thoughts. He secretly thought, "The itching of the wound is a symptom of wound healing, but I only suffered the injury during the day, why do I feel itchy at night? No, my eyes It’s my own eyes, I have to see what it’s like now.”

Edgar Austin entered the bathroom, stood in front of the sink, faced the mirror, and reached out to untie the knot of gauze.

The gauze was peeled off layer by layer. Edgar Austin the last layer of gauze was peeled off, Xia Lei saw his left eye. He was stunned when he saw it.

His left eye was covered with a layer of white ointment, and the ointment was tightly smeared, but strangely, when he looked at his left eye, he vaguely felt that the sight of his left eye seemed to penetrate The thick layer of ointment saw the light in the bathroom, but it was just very blurry.

"How... is this possible?"Edgar Austin was stunned.

Under normal circumstances, even if his left eye was not injured and the ointment was covering his eye, he would not be able to see anything, but now he actually saw light!
