A migrant worker risked his life to rescue a drowning girl.



After being rescued, the girl prepared to give the migrant worker some money to thank him for saving her life.

The migrant worker was kind-hearted and refused outright. He said he didn't save her for money.

Returning to the construction site, he discovered his phone was damaged by water during the rescue and couldn't be used.

He needed to buy a new phone—an ordinary one for 200 yuan.

He had worked hard on the construction site to earn 200 yuan, which wasn't easy. He felt a bit heartbroken about it.

Then he thought of the girl he had rescued. After all, the phone was damaged because of saving her, so she should compensate him. He contacted the girl and explained the situation.

But the girl refused outright, saying the rescue was voluntary on his part. When she offered him payment before, he refused, so he shouldn't ask for it now.

Otherwise, if he kept bringing it up, it would become extortion in disguise.

The migrant worker felt wronged too. He believed he was asking for compensation, not a reward.

He never expected that people's warmth could cool down so quickly.
