Yu Yao narrowed his pupils and said, "Where are you guys?"

"Diagnosing Hua," Pei Zhen said calmly, "They refused to let me be sent to the hospital."

"How is the situation now?"

"It's not serious. He was lucky that he didn't hurt his bones." Pei Zhen said, "I haven't had trauma surgery for more than two years. But I happened to meet a few professional students who were doing internships back to school."

"Is someone bothering you?"

"No," Pei Zhen said, "for now."

Yu Yao slumped on the chair before letting go of his last breath.Just when the butler came back, he said, "Mr. Yu, the car is ready."

Yu Yao: "I'll go to Diagnosis Hua to find you."

"Since you know there is danger, don't come here again. Maybe if you come, their goals will be even bigger." Pei Zhen said, "They should not dare to cause trouble in the school—unless you provoke bandits."

The kidnapping was planned secretly, and on the surface they still have to be wary, Yu Yao said: "It's not that serious."

Pei Zhen smiled lightly, and said, "Tell Yuan and Lin Wan about it for me, and I'll go back later."

"Okay," Yu Yao said gratefully, "Thank you."

The butler asked, "Mr. Yu, are you not going out?"

Yu Yao got up from the chair and suddenly thought of what Pei Zhen said, so he had to sit down again and said, "Please go to Dr. Pei's house. Only his wife and daughter are at home now, so it's not very safe."

……

Xu Zhiyuan's intuition that a blind cat meets a dead mouse actually led them to find Fu Shubai and Wu Tongqiu in Diagnosis Medical College.

After Li Anrong knew that the two were safe, he hurried home.Xu Zhiyuan was left here alone to take care of the patients.

Fu Shubai was not in danger. When he woke up, he saw Wu Tongqiu who was asleep. He breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Xu Zhiyuan who was accompanying the bed, and scolded him for a long time.Asked: "... What did you inquire about?"

"Liao De and Jin Jirui are two dogs raised by Sishan. One sings bad faces and the other sings red faces. The purpose is to swindle information from the Wu brothers and sisters."

"……anything else."

"Wu Shenyuan has..." Xu Zhiyuan glanced at Wu Tongqiu, and said softly, "He is already dead."

He didn't let the enemy get any useful information until he died, and he didn't let his family know his identity as an underground intelligence officer of the Fellowship Association.

Fu Shubai closed his eyes and said, "Don't tell her yet."

"I know," Xu Zhiyuan said with concern, "Does the wound hurt?"

"Damn it, it hurts like hell," Fu Shubai was just a student who hadn't gone through the storm, and his ability to bear physical and mental pressure was naturally not as strong as that of a professional, and the bloodshot eyes that were spawned by fear and tension had not yet dissipated.He said, "I haven't heard from you for a long time... Didn't you go in with Liluofang, where did you die?" He continued to complain, "I feel more and more that something is wrong with Jin Jirui. I would rather run away if I think about it." Wrong, not waiting to die there. So Tong Qiu used the excuse of stomach discomfort, and we escaped through the window of the toilet together. After walking a few steps, a patrolman came chasing us. There are many... dressed in black clothes and black hat."

This reminded Xu Zhiyuan of the man in black who visited his house several times, he rubbed his brows, and explained: "I'm sorry, I was too naive."

"It's okay," Fu Shubai said, "I will definitely not help you with any work that is expected to take your life next time."

"..." Xu Zhiyuan laughed uncontrollably: "You were wounded bravely anyway, so can't you say some heroic words?"

"Go ahead and be a hero," Fu Shubai said with lingering fear, "I cherish my life, I'm a coward, and I just want to live in peace."

Xu Zhiyuan agreed to him, and said seriously: "Thank you."

Fu Shubai was taken aback, turned his head and stared at him for a while with difficulty, and said: "You can pull it away, you have a few catties and a few taels of sincerity, I think you will dare to do it next time."

Fu Shubai was promoted to Pei Zhen's "true patient" this time, and the director returned to the hospital to open a "real medical record", and he was able to ask for leave successfully without going to class.Fu Shubai looked at Pei Zhen's signature, and sighed with trepidation, "Forever".

Pei Zhen asked him and Wu Tongqiu to stay here for the next two days and not to move around.Xu Zhiyuan could choose to go home or stay in Clinic China, but he was asked not to come and go frequently.What Xu Zhiyuan knew was almost the same as what Li Anrong explained.Thinking that he would have to face Yu Yao when he went back, he had no choice but to stay.

The two days after the night party seemed extraordinarily peaceful, maybe it was because they stayed on the campus and the news was blocked, until Xu Zhiyuan went out for a walk on the campus of Diagnosis Hua after being bored for a long time, and picked up a freshly printed newspaper in the newsstand, self-righteous The calm was suddenly broken.

Xu Zhiyuan seemed to have been splashed with cold water, only to see such an article published in several large and small newspapers.

The content is probably——According to "informed sources", the real reason for the transfer of the former Huai District Army Commander Xu Zhenping was that he was found to have held improper gatherings in private, including pornography and opium trading. .The "facts" of those hunters' eyeballs were written like vulgar and pornographic articles in a tabloid. In order to prove that the sex trade was true, Liluofang Niantang's "witness certificate" was directly hung up.Xu Zhiyuan checked several times before confirming that these are all famous newspapers in Huai City.

Seeing the name "Niantang", Xu Zhiyuan almost shredded the paper and turned the pages tremblingly.

If it was just a matter of personal morality, he would not have been transferred. The article linked this illegal assembly with secret arms smuggling.The ending shows that the coalition government requested an investigation into Xu Zhenping's family members who are still in Huai City.Xihua News Agency did not disclose the results of the investigation, but it has dismissed editor-in-chief Li Anrong without disclosing the reason.This shows in a cunning way that Mrs. Xu "has a problem".

There is another sentence at the end - "According to the evidence of a certain student of Ming Ming, the eldest son of Xu is suspected of having an adulterous relationship with a man, because his family style and morals are corrupt, the upper and lower beams are crooked, and he is like a raccoon." He closed his eyes, and it took a long time before he opened them. , and continued to look back, the strange thing is that he didn't see the name of Yu Yao that he was most afraid of seeing at the end.

Xu Zhiyuan couldn't move on the spot, so he threw a few dollars at the newsstand, tore up all the newspapers that published this article, and threw them into the firewood pile in the boiler room.

Regardless of the danger, he called a car and took him to Liluofang.Ignoring the boy's obstruction, he kicked open the door and carried Nian Tang out.It slammed into the trunk of the big begonia tree in the yard.

The apprentices and servants of Liluofang yelled and came to stop them, but Niantang shouted to back off.

The crowd looked at the cold and angry Xu Zhiyuan and questioned their boss: "Boss Nian, you have a hand in biting back."

"I didn't bite back."

"Then why the hell are you going to testify for Sishan and the others, and frame Xu Zhenping?"

Niantang only felt that the strength of his hand was pinching her out of breath, and frowned, "That's a highly skilled sophistry. They only asked me to say 'the demand for prostitutes for private parties is high', which is totally unreasonable. I didn't specify what kind of party it was, but if it was included in an article against Xu Zhenping, it would lead people to think like you..."

Xu Zhiyuan didn't let go, and said: "But since you know, you still agree to give them this fake 'witness'."

Niantang said: "What can I do... Liao De disappeared, and I was serving him last night. They forced me, if they disagree, they will charge this crime on Liluofang."

"Liao De is missing?" Seeing his weak appearance, Xu Zhiyuan felt that the alarm was ringing, Niantang was definitely not the kind of person who would let others slaughter him, maybe what he said in front of him just now was full of words.Xu Zhiyuan said unmoved: "Actually, you did it, boss Nian."

Niantang grabbed his wrist and said in distress: "...how could it be."

The collar was loosened, Niantang took a deep breath, saw Xu Zhiyuan put his hands in his pockets, and said: "How about this, Boss Nian, I will force you too."

"..."

"You've also read that article, so you know what I'm going to say," Xu Zhiyuan said grimly, "Obviously Yu Yao is the one Sishan most wants to target, but his name was not mentioned in that report at all. This is not the group Jackal style."

Nian Tang said with great interest, "Oh... what do you mean?"

"I know that Sishan still has illusions, so I left a step to force my uncle to submit - he must have an 'article' about Yu Yao on hand as a threat."

"Boss Nian is a celebrity on the edge of the temple mountain, with great powers. I don't care what method you use, steal, rob, or create a barrier—you can't let that bullshit lie be published. I want you to protect Yu Yao comprehensively." Xu Zhiyuan There was a chilling sense of oppression on his body, he said, "If Boss Nian is not good at things or lies to me, I will surrender myself and tell the police that I am the criminal who kidnapped Liao De, and that Nian Tang helped me sneak into and hide fellow of man."

"I don't care about reputation. I just want to read the boss. If I am found out to be a traitor by Sishan's side, I will die an ugly death."

Boss Nian stared at him faintly, thinking he was a fucking lunatic.

The lunatic is not like other careerists who are sure to win, and they retreat cleanly after achieving their goals.He dared to use a flawed handle as a bargaining chip-whether it was the best choice or not.

Negotiating with others is like fighting. You go back and forth between defending your own interests and fighting for other people's territory. The trickiest thing is to meet someone who is good at killing both sides and "losing both sides".

Xu Zhiyuan knew that there were many unspoken things behind Niantang, Liao De or Wu Shenyuan - he needed to think carefully before taking risks, so as Xu Zhiyuan expected, Niantang stared at him for a while, then compromised: "Okay. "

After laying down this safety guarantee for Yu Yao, Xu Zhiyuan hid outside in a daze for several days without returning home.This report fit people's entertainment psychology, and because it was widely disseminated, it made a lot of noise. Sometimes in street teahouses, he could hear day laborers who could read a few Chinese characters talking about it with a group of illiterate people.

Xu Zhenping, who was far away in Wuzhou District, immediately sent a text to veto it, and the counterattack article written by Editor Li was also published in the newspaper, but it was outnumbered, and the influence of gossip was not as deep in the end.

"Newspapers in Huai City are just a vassal of the powerful." Xu Zhiyuan didn't really understand Yu Yao's words until now.After Xu Zhenping was transferred away, various newspapers turned their backs one after another.The capitalists who really participated in the improper gathering controlled the direction of public opinion in their own newspapers, and articles unfavorable to them could not be published at all, but they kept rumors to spread.

Xu Zhiyuan was still young after all, and he hadn't practiced the mentality of not being surprised when facing these things.It took all his calmness to go to Niantang to negotiate at the first time.But he doesn't seem to be able to do anything except fight with gossip passers-by.

When he was about to run out of money, he ran to the place where he usually finds young girls to have a drink, while drinking and listening to people talking about comforting him.

"Master Xu, don't worry, those who spread rumors about personal morality are either stupid or bad."

"Yes, yes, you come to play with us every day, don't we know what kind of person you are."

"If you want me to say that it must be the rabbit who hooked up with the young master before, bah! You don't look down on them at all, and they put gold on their faces..."

Xu Zhiyuan drank the stuffed wine without saying a word, the ladies were all talking, and they didn't see Xu Zhiyuan spending a lot of money like before, so they looked at each other, one of them was probably a newcomer, and asked boldly: "Young master, what are you doing today?" Are you shy in your pocket?"

"I didn't bring any money." Xu Zhiyuan said.

The young lady who was lying in his arms glared at the newcomer, and quickly smoothed things over and said: "You rouge vulgar fans, the young master just comes here occasionally to relax, you know how much money you can still owe you?"

Even though he said that, Xu Zhiyuan didn't reply, and the enthusiasm around him was halved.Suddenly all the voices fell silent, Xu Zhiyuan followed their eyes and looked towards the door, and saw Yu Yao's figure clearly.

Yu Yao shouted: "Zhiyuan."

The lady in Xu Zhiyuan's arms seemed to hate Yu Yao very much, she immediately rolled her eyes - after all, when she was with the young master, she was caught by him like a rape, and there would always be conflicts in her heart.If Yu Yao hadn't jumped out halfway at that time, he would have already cooked rice.

Seeing that Xu Zhiyuan was silent, she said unscrupulously: "Oh, it's you again. Why do you like to join in the fun with the young master so much?"

Yu Yao turned a blind eye and stepped forward, and said to Xu Zhiyuan, "Where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time." He was silent for a while, and said softly, "Come home with me, please."

"Where is the young master going to play? I thought your surname was Xu."

"That's right, it's so lenient... Hey, master."

Xu Zhiyuan stood up amidst the denunciation, stepped over the wine bottle, walked around the sofa obediently, and went out without a word.The ladies shouted in doubt, "What are you doing..." Yu Yao bit his lip, and then followed out, only to find that Xu Zhiyuan had already boarded the car driven by the housekeeper.

Xu Zhiyuan followed Yu Yao back, as if he lost his voice, Li Anrong scolded him with red eyes for playing missing these days, it was nothing but nonsense, he didn't speak, just listened quietly.

Yu Yao had no choice but to stop Li Anrong and tell him to take a bath first so that he could come out for dinner.

Xu Zhiyuan went to take a shower, but he came out with his hair still wet, with water dripping from the front of his pajamas.He sat down on the sofa, picked up a piece of cold cake to eat, and while he was eating, he was covered with a dry towel.

Yu Yao wiped it gently for him.Needless to say, he also knew that Xu Zhiyuan had seen those newspapers.While rubbing Xu Zhiyuan's head, he said: "Stay at home these days and don't go out. I will ask you for leave. If you want to eat, I will bring it to you after school."

Xu Zhiyuan still didn't answer, but his chewing stopped slowly. Yu Yao rubbed the tips of his hair carefully, and didn't see him move for a long time, so he bent down to look at him.

Xu Zhiyuan's flamboyant eyebrows, heroic spirit, and aggression are all hidden under the innocence and handsomeness. He looks different when he smiles and when he has a cold face.At this time, the ends of his eyes were reddish, and the long eyelashes were dripping with water. I don't know if it was from wet hair or what.

Yu Yao was slightly startled, and then remembered that Xu Zhiyuan's birthday hadn't passed this year, and nineteen years old was still imaginary.In fact, he hasn't even fully opened his eyebrows yet, no matter how "cunning and calculating", he still lacks a bit of ruthlessness and decisiveness.Compared with that group of old foxes, he is still a child.

It is the innocent age that believes that entrusting a heart of trust and sincerity will be rewarded.

Yu Yao stretched out his fingers out of nowhere, and wiped the drops of water off Xu Zhiyuan's eyelashes.Xu Zhiyuan dodged, pushed his hand away, and said, "Don't touch me."

Yu Yao pursed his lips and said: "...If you are tired, go to the room and rest. An Rong and I will take care of these things."

Yu Yao seemed to want to say something, but he didn't seem to say anything, so he had to stand up, and when he walked to the door, Xu Zhiyuan said quietly, "Yaoer, you know, I like you."

Yu Yao's heart trembled inexplicably, stopped, and heard him say: "But... you said I was confused, my mother and my father also said it was a disease, I don't know what to do now, It’s probably really a disease, just treat it.”

"But I can't stop liking you all at once, you have to give me some time."

"...I'll change it slowly." He added in a hoarse voice, and went upstairs on his own without looking at Yu Yao.
