Chapter 147 Unforgettable
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
Jian Chi laid in bed during the day to recuperate, and took every opportunity at night to wait for Ji Huaisi to wake up in his ward.
The doctor told Jian Chi that if Ji Huaisi hadn’t hugged him at the last minute, there would have been more than two ribs and skin injuries. The impact of the car accident occurred from the rear, and most of the force received was scattered on Ji Huaisi. The driver suffered the least injuries and was discharged from the hospital. Ji Huaisi was pushed into the emergency room on the night he was admitted to the hospital.
Luckily, a passerby driver passed by when the accident happened, and immediately got out of the car and called the ambulance. The ambulance arrived in time, and Ji Huaisi was out of danger after being rescued overnight, but the head injury kept him in a coma.
Everything was different from the original, they both protected each other at the moment of crisis. Looking at Ji Huaisi’s sleeping face, Jian Chi recited in his heart over and over again: wake up quickly.
He wanted to see Ji Huaisi’s smile again.
During the hospitalization, Shao Hang, Wen Chuan and Shen Shuting came to take care of Jian Chi every day as promised, and they did not bump into each other once. Yesterday, Wen Chuan came to visit with the chicken soup he cooked by himself. Today, Shen Shuting prepared a table full of tonic herbal meals. Jian Chi suspected that if this goes on like this, he will add an inch of meat on the day he is discharged from the hospital.
The injury from the car accident was not like the last time where he twisted his foot. Besides his weakness and that he cannot make large movements, Jian Chi could take care of himself by himself. After all, his hands and feet were intact. Such an explanation could not convince the three people at all. Shao Hang always asked the doctor to do a full-body examination again. The doctor said that the person was fine and there was no need for this. At that time, Shao Hang would run to him and secretly say he was a quack and that he would invite the best personal doctor to come diagnose him. However, Jian Chi knew that it was not a small feat to do this, because last time Shao Hang said in front of the doctor that he was going to change to another, he couldn’t speak because of the doctor’s series of terms that he said in succession. Jian Chi couldn’t help laughing.
In contrast, Wen Chuan had more experience in caring for patients than Shao Hang. When communicating with doctors and nurses, he can often bypass some irrelevant content and hit the key points. During this period of time, Jian Chi was fortunate enough to taste his cooking skills, and deeply understood why Jingjing liked to come to the house for food in the first place. Looking at Wen Chuan’s expectant eyes, Jian Chi expressed his full encouragement, saying he would get Wen Chuan’s improved version next time.
Jian Chi had no choice but to give up the idea of dissuasion. To be able to do this might be some kind of unusual talent of Wen Chuan’s.
When it was Shen Shuting’s turn, Jian Chi’s desire to be discharged from the hospital deepened, which was a unique role of Shen Shuting. The days of being forced to be alone were getting harder and harder each time, and sometimes, Jian Chi can’t tell whether Shen Shuting was accompanying him or he was accompanying Shen Shuting.
“If you have something to do, you can go back earlier.” Seeing Shen Shuting coming back from the corridor after answering a phone, Jian Chi pretended not to be so impatient and suggested it, expecting a positive answer.
The door slammed shut, Shen Shuting hooked his lips indifferently, “You want me to go so much?”
Seeing the expression on his face, he knew what Shen Shuting was thinking, and denied it: “This is what you said. ” It had nothing to do with him.
Shen Shuting said, “I’ll leave when you fall asleep.”
Another difficult night Jian Chi thought.
Shen Shuting’s way of caring was always different from others, at least both Shao Hang and Wen Chuan treated him as a patient, only Shen Shuting treated him like a hostage. Jian Chi remembered very clearly that once he felt sleepy after lunch, leaned against the head of the bed for a nap, and fell asleep accidentally. As a result, he woke up with a violent shaking. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Shuting’s face. For the first time, Jian Chi saw concrete tension in Shen Shuting’s eyes, like an arrow on a string. Looking at each other for just a second, under the emerald cold pupils, Shen Shuting said, “I just want to know how deadly you slept.”
After that, Jian Chi could always feel Shen Shuting’s gaze falling on his body. When he happened to yawn, or want to close his eyes and rest for a while, Shen Shuting would stop what he was doing and stare at him, every time he had to wait for him to fall asleep before leaving. If it was in the past, Jian Chi would definitely feel that Shen Shuting was ill, and now he still felt that Shen Shuting was ill. This unusual and duplicitous concern was not something normal people can bear. But at least, now he can be sure that this was caring, and not him being annoying.
Tonight, he was destined to be unable to drive away the stubborn Shen Shuting, so Jian Chi had to find something to pass the time. Just after picking up the remote control, he heard Shen Shuting’s voice: “Bai Shuyun is leaving, he wants to see you.”
At first glance, Jian Chi thought Bai Shuyun was about to die, and his mind went blank for a moment.
In his impression, Bai Shuyun was always so weak that he was hanging on his last breath. The strange thing was that such a frail and sick Bai Shuyun was like a little cockroach who was dying but can’t be beaten to death. It turns out that even if he hits someone with a car in the plot, he would be safe in the end. Jian Chi couldn’t believe it, how could this incident change Bai Shuyun’s fate?
Shen Shuting’s next sentence dragged back Jian Chi’s thoughts that were farther and farther away: “The Bai family wants to send him abroad, and this time they are completely disappointed in him.”
Sure enough, it was still the little cockroach who couldn’t be beaten to death.
Jian Chi nodded to show that he knew. To be honest, he didn’t have any good feelings for Bai Shuyun, who directly caused the accident, so he had a dark thought for a moment. If Bai Shuyun could get sick and leave during this car accident, maybe it would be better. However, when he knew the truth of the matter from Bai Xiyu’s perspective, in addition to his disgust, Jian Chi felt a little sad for Bai Shuyun who was often dragged out to block the gun. If there was no Bai Xiyu’s guidance, would he still do this?
Bai Xiyu’s shrewdness was terrifying, and Bai Shuyun was too stupid to deserve sympathy. Jian Chi didn’t think that the fault should be entirely on one side, and neither of them can escape. He only had one wish, that he will never have anything to do with this pair of brothers in the future.
Jian Chi’s silence seemed to be misunderstood by Shen Shuting as something else, his eyes darkened slightly, “There is the Bai family behind him, he is not easy to move. When he goes abroad, it is no longer a territory that the Bai family can control at will, I have already arranged people. I won’t let him escape when the plane lands.”
Jian Chi was made nervous by this villain-like remark, “Don’t do anything illegal.” He always felt that the next step was to unknowingly resolve Bai Shuyun.
“It’s not enough to deal with him,” Shen Shuting said, “I will give him an unforgettable trip within the limits of the law.” He sounded more like a villain.
“You said just now that he wanted to see me?” Jian Chi finally remembered the key point.
Shen Shuting frowned, “Do you want to accept?”
“Did he make the call just now? What did he say?”
“It’s Bai Yinnian,” Shen Shuting paused, “do you want to see him?
This statement brought a subtle difference. Jian Chi always felt that answering ‘yes’ was like saying that he wants to see Bai Yinnian, so he added the prefix, “I want to meet Bai Shuyun.”
Jian Chi failed to fall into the the trap’s answer made Shen Shuting raise the corner of his lips gently, as fast as an illusion, “I’ll go with you.”
This time Jian Chi didn’t refuse, he knew that Shen Shuting was there for his safety, and as for if he had any other secret thoughts, he really had no energy to think about it. He wanted to know what Bai Shuyun wanted to say to him. Intuition told him that it might have something to do with Bai Xiyu.
He and Shen Shuting had a rare tacit understanding, and he did not tell Shao Hang and Wen Chuan about this. If they knew, they would definitely be opposed. Jian Chi came to the Bai family mansion after a long absence. He sprained his foot here before, but this time he came in a wheelchair again. He and this house, or with the Bai family, were destined to have a bit of a relationship.
It was Bai Yinnian who came out to greet the guests. It was difficult to see his attitude towards this incident from his cold and stern expression. He nodded to Shen Shuting, looking away from Jian Chi, stopped for a few more seconds while at the legs of the wheelchair.
“He’s in the room.”
Shen Shuting pushed Jian Chi forward, but was stopped by Bai Yinian’s raised arm, “He wants to see Jian Chi alone.”
“Do you think I would agree?” Shen Shuting suddenly cooled down, “Get out of the way.”
Bai Yinian didn’t move, his voice was calm and unbearable: “He won’t pose any threat to Jian Chi, you can feel rest assured, don’t forget that he is also injured.”
Jian Chi expected something, and when he met Bai Yinian’s eyes, he got a touch of consensus, which was a little surprising. He originally thought that Bai Yinnian, this younger brother con, would take his anger on him unreasonably. This was the worst situation that Jian Chi had thought of when he arrived, but obviously Bai Yinian’s reason was more stable than he thought. Facing a criminal who risked people’s lives, even as a relative, it was unacceptable and unforgivable.
“I’ll go in alone,” Jian Chi said to Shen Shuting, “You wait for me outside, a few minutes is enough.”
Shen Shuting’s face was not good, Jian Chi’s wheelchair fell into Bai Yinian’s hands, and he opened the door and pushed him in a split second. Jian Chi heard Bai Yinnian ask behind him, “Are your legs okay?”
“It’s okay.”
“I’m sorry,” after the silence, Bai Yinnian said, “I failed our agreement.”
Jian Chi was stunned, no answer.
At this moment, Bai Shuyun on the bed was tightly bound for both hands and feet as Jian Chi had expected. He raised his neck suddenly when he heard the movement. When Bai Yinnian left, he squeezed out a smile on his haggard face. A complicated smile, full of unwillingness and resentment: “Are you satisfied?”
When Jian Chi heard these words, he knew that Bai Shuyun was not here to apologize to him, so he lost his patience and replied coldly, “It’s not enough. If you can bear all the injuries for me and Ji Huaisi, I will be more satisfied.”
“Why didn’t I kill you?” Bai Shuyun gritted his teeth, “If I had known, I should have just killed you, at least I would not suffer these injuries in vain, and have to flee abroad to avoid the limelight. Bai Xiyu should be very proud now. When I leave, he will become the young master of the Bai family. I should have thought that he had this idea from the very beginning. Disgusting peasant deceived me, you, and everyone, I should have thought…”
Before learning the truth, Jian Chi would definitely be confused by Bai Shuyun’s words.
But at this moment, it was like clearing the clouds and seeing the moon, he was suddenly enlightened.
After waking up that day, in addition to feeling complicated and relieved, Jian Chi also had another doubt. Bai Xiyu in that life, because of Ji Huaisi who saw through his true colors, had the idea of destroying him since he couldn’t get him and induced Bai Shuyun to cause a car accident. But back to reality, with a completely different trend of events, Bai Xiyu still played a role that cannot be ignored in this car accident. What was the reason this time?
——Jian Chi couldn’t think of any other reason except to get his rightful young master status.
Everything was clear, Bai Xiyu’s goal was clear and cruel from beginning to end. He wanted power and status, and he did not hesitate to murder his own mother; he wanted everyone’s care and love, so he created a cage full of lies and false love. However, Bai Xiyu in this life did not get the latter. He changed his purpose, searched for deeper power and status, and formulated another brand-new and terrible plan.
He was unwilling to be just a precarious illegitimate child. He wanted to get rid of Bai Shuyun and replace him.
Jian Chi’s back was chilled, and when he met Bai Shuyun’s gaze, it was misunderstood as something else, and he sarcastically said, “Now you know how to be afraid? Now you know the true face of your ‘good friend’? Jian Chi, do you know that that day, I didn’t plan to hit you with my car at night, I just wanted to teach you a profound lesson and let you experience the torment of being locked up here and unable to leave. However, it was your friend, my good little brother who said don’t drink too much alcohol, it’s dark outside, if there’s a little accident in the car, it might not be noticed, and then asked if I would do something to you. He said a lot of nonsense, and in the end he told me not to go for you, doesn’t it sound very touching?”
Bai Shuyun sneered.
“He knows me so well. He knows that I hate his act of being the most innocent in the world. The more he said this, the more I will do the opposite. After drinking, his words become clearer and clearer. Yes, it’s so dark outside, it’s impossible for anyone to find out if there was an accident while driving. I was going to teach you a lesson. Wasn’t a car accident a good thing? If it wasn’t for Bai Xiyu’s hint, I wouldn’t have thought of this at all, and I wouldn’t have drunk so much alcohol. It wasn’t until I hit the car that I thought that Bai Xiyu knew that I was always in the driver’s position, so why did he mention the car accident in the first place?”
Jian Chi listened to Bai Shuyun expressionlessly, “Is there any more?”
“Jian Chi, you should have understood that the car accident was not my intention at all, it was Bai Xiyu who deliberately guided me, it was him…”
“Make you story short, I don’t have time.”
Bai Shuyun saw that Jian Chi was about to leave, panicked for a moment, and shouted with all his strength: “Don’t you understand? I’m innocent, you see, I’m also injured, the three of us. It’s all because of Bai Xiyu, you and Ji Huaisi – I didn’t know it was his car at the time, I was drunk. And me, I can’t even stay in the Bai family now. My brother said either go abroad or go to jail, but it should be Bai Xiyu who should go to jail! Don’t you think so? We were all used by him.”
Jian Chi completely understood what Bai Shuyun meant.
“You want me to go out and intercede in front of your brother, let him revoke the punishment against you, and say that Bai Xiyu was the mastermind behind everything, let him go to jail?”
Bai Shuyun nodded hastily, and then froze when he saw Jian Chi’s smile.
“You got one thing wrong.”
“Bai Xiyu is not innocent, and neither are you. You two can’t tell who was at fault and who was more at fault. In my opinion, you are both the same kind of person. You keep saying peasant, but you are not as smart as Bai Xiyu, a ‘peasant’ who came half way. If you don’t go abroad, do you really want to go to jail? Or listen to your brother and have yourself an unforgettable trip abroad.”
Before leaving the room, Jian Chi turned back to look at Bai Shuyun, whose face was pale, and saw that he moved his lips to argue, so he interrupted him completely and indifferently.
“Also, what ‘us’?”
–Jian Chi: Jie Jie Jie (villain’s laughter)
