Lima syndrome

On the other side, driver Zhou, who received the news, finally rushed over. Seeing Bai Zhiyan with new wounds on his face in the ward, he felt distressed.

"Oh my, how come our Master Zhiyan was beaten like this?"

His own daughter is about the same age as Bai Zhiyan. Whenever he sees him, he would think of his own daughter. He feels really bad to see scars on a child this old.

Bai Zhiyan smiled and comforted him, "It's okay, Driver Zhou. The doctor said it's just a superficial wound. It will heal in a few days."

"This is no small matter, Master Zhiyan. Who hurt you like this? Have you told President Bai and Master Jitai about this?"

Hearing him mention those two unlucky people, a hint of displeasure flashed in Bai Zhiyan's eyes. There was no need for him to tell those two people about this matter. Even if he did, nothing would change. Bai Zhengren might even scold him for it.

"There's no need to tell them about this." Bai Zhiyan patted Xu Shiyuan's arm and introduced him to driver Zhou, "Driver Zhou, this is our class leader Xu Shiyuan. You saw him at home last time. He was the one who took me to the hospital."

When Driver Zhou found out that Xu Shiyuan was Bai Zhiyan's benefactor, he excitedly held his hands.

"Thank you so much, Shi Yuan. It's all thanks to you for taking care of our Master Zhi Yan."

Xu Shiyuan was a little uncomfortable with such passionate contact. He resisted the urge to withdraw his hand and shook his head to indicate that it was nothing.

"Driver Zhou, the doctor said I need to rest for a few days, so please send the monitor home and ask the counselor for a few days off."

"Okay, you have a good rest."

After Driver Zhou and Xu Shiyuan left, Bai Zhiyan could finally relax.

He recalled the scene before he fell into coma. He remembered that Gao Enshuo and Park Jun had been knocked down by him, and there were many spectators around when Xu Shiyuan broke into the room. If nothing unexpected happened, the news that he defeated these two people today would spread throughout Silver Star. If Gao Enshuo and Park Jun had any shame, they would not continue to cause trouble for him at school.

Thinking of this, he touched the bandaged wound on his forehead. This happened over and over again, and maybe there would be a scar left here in the future.

The next day, Bai Zhiyan slept until noon. He was so hungry that he got up, went to the hospital cafeteria to get a meal, and then lay back in bed.

After reluctantly eating some, he received a call from Bai Zhengren.

Looking at Bai Zhengren's name on the incoming call, Bai Zhiyan frowned.

"Hello, father."

"Where are you now? Your counselor said that you beat up a classmate and you haven't gone to school today. Why didn't you go to school?" Bai Zhengren's heavy and low voice came from the other side of the microphone. Bai Zhiyan clearly felt his displeasure at this moment.

"I'm in the hospital right now, and I asked my counselor for leave yesterday."

Bai Zhiyan's tone was calm, and he didn't seem aggrieved or sad because of his questioning.

Because in his heart, Bai Zhengren is not worthy of being his father. No father would blame his child without knowing the truth, nor would the first thing he thinks of after hearing about a fight is why his child didn't go to school.

"I don't care if you hit someone or they hit you, I just hope you don't bring shame to our Bai family." He paused and said, "Don't go to school these few days, and don't let your teacher find me for the follow-up of this matter. I'm very busy. I will transfer the money to you. If the other party can't get entangled, just let them name a price."

"Okay, I see."

Bai Zhiyan thought that he was indeed a businessman, and anything could become a deal for him.

After hanging up the phone, he lost his appetite. He packed up the leftovers and lay back on the bed.

It was not until dinner time in the afternoon that Xu Shiyuan came over again. He looked hurried and probably had just come after school.

"Shi Yuan, why are you here?"

"I was worried that you would be too bored alone, and I was also concerned about your injury." He said as he put down his schoolbag, "I also brought my study notes from today's class, so I can help you with your homework."

Bai Zhiyan had no interest in what he said, but the final tutoring lessons finally moved him. All other things are inferior, only reading is superior.

"Thank you so much, otherwise I would have to spend my rest days in cram school again."

Seeing Bai Zhiyan's smile, Xu Shiyuan was deeply encouraged. This was a good opportunity for him to improve his favorability, so he naturally couldn't let it go. So he took out the notes he had sorted out during the day and carefully explained the knowledge points and exercises to him.

During this time, Bai Zhiyan ordered takeout, and it was already dark when the two of them finished their meal.

"By the way, Jiyeon, I have something else to tell you." Seo Shiwon recalled the rumors he heard today, "I heard that Ko Eun-seok and Park Joon are also in this hospital."

This was not something unexpected, and Bai Zhiyan did not react much.

"Okay, I understand. I will try to go out less these two days."

After seeing Xu Shiyuan off, Bai Zhiyan lay alone in bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He woke up too late during the day, so he was still very conscious.

He sat up and read the books and notes brought by Xu Shiyuan again. Then he felt a little sleepy. Driver Zhou helped him to move to a higher ward yesterday. He was the only one living in the room and had a separate bathroom. After a simple wash, he slowly climbed onto the bed.

His cell phone rang again at this time, and the unread message showed that it was from an unknown number.

He was not curious about who it was and didn't even read it, but the sender was extremely anxious.

After Bai Zhiyan "voluntarily" left him his contact information, Che Jingcan had been thinking about whether to contact him, and today he finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, half an hour...still no movement from the other side.

Che Jingcan looked at his mobile phone over and over again. He wondered if his newly bought phone was broken as he couldn't even receive a message.

He patiently sent another message.

Bai Zhiyan saw his phone light up and go off repeatedly, and finally he got fed up and picked up his phone to check.

Because he felt that no one would send him messages except Liu Zhimin and Xu Shiyuan. Liu Zhimin would only say some nonsense, and as for Xu Shiyuan, there was no need to reply to his messages at all.

When I turned on the phone, I found it was an unknown number.

"Hey Dead Fish Face, this is my number."

Well, now he knew who it was.

"Did you see my message? Why didn't you reply to me?"

"Is your phone broken?"

"Isn't the number you gave me a fake one?"

"Why are you pretending to be so cool? Will you die if I say something back?"

Bai Zhiyan didn’t know if he would die if he didn’t reply to the messages, but now as he looked at the long list of messages, he knew that he was about to be annoyed to death.

"You're not really dead, are you?"

……

Bai Zhiyan was speechless. Seeing that the other party was unstoppable and had no intention of stopping, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and replied.

"Shut up."

The person on the other side stared at the two words in a daze. He was first surprised and a little happy at his reply, and then became angry at its content.

"Dead fish face, are you looking for death? What kind of bullshit are you replying to me? Say something else."

Bai Zhiyan ignored him and calmly muted his message notification.

At this time at the Bai family, Bai Jitai had not seen Bai Zhiyan since he returned home. He thought he was deliberately avoiding him, until he saw him coming downstairs at dinner time, and then he realized something was wrong.

"Aunt Han, didn't you ask that bastard to come down for dinner? Why do you need someone to treat you to a meal now?"

After Bai Jitai finished dealing with company matters during the day, he went home without thinking about anything after work. Things at the company made him upset, and he could only get a little rest when he was at home.

Aunt Han was used to his insulting names for Bai Zhiyan, so she lowered her head and answered him, "Master Jitai, you may not know since you haven't been home these few days, but Master Zhiyan is injured and in the hospital."

"Injured?" Bai Jitai frowned. "What kind of injury did he get?"

"I heard that Master Zhiyan had a conflict with his classmates at school, and both sides fought. Master Zhiyan was sent to the hospital that day."

"Does father know about this?"

"According to Driver Zhou, President Bai knows about it, and..." Aunt Han paused, "The president doesn't seem to want to take care of it."

"Bang--" Bai Jitai dropped the knife and fork in his hand, and the porcelain white plate broke, with fragments flying out of the table and hitting the ground.

"Why didn't anyone tell me about this?"

Aunt Han looked at him suspiciously, a little hesitant, "Master Jitai, don't you always dislike Master Zhiyan? So we didn't say anything."

Aunt Han has been working in the Bai family for more than ten years. She has deeper feelings for Bai Jitae than for Bai Zhiyan, who came to the Bai family as an illegitimate child, so she doesn't want Bai Jitae to feel unhappy because of Bai Zhiyan.

"Do you know who the other party is from?"

"I heard that he is the young master of the Park family who is engaged in investment and the grandson of Chairman Gao."

"Okay, you go down."

Bai Jitai rubbed his swollen temples, his mind was in a mess. The scene a week ago when Bai Zhiyan hit his head to avoid him was still vivid in his mind. This time he was injured and hospitalized again. He didn't know how the children of the two families were doing.

Damn bastard, what if this matter gets out of hand and affects the Rijiang Group? Dealing with the company's affairs every day is already enough of a headache for him, and he doesn't want to deal with the mess before taking over.

He thought of something and picked up his phone to swipe to Bai Zhiyan's number. Although they had each other's contact information, it was just a decoration and they had never contacted each other.

After just a moment of hesitation, the call had already been made. Bai Jitai didn't know whether the other party would hang up on him directly. The unpredictable result made him excited.

"Dududu-"

People may be born as contradictory and complex individuals, with excellence and beauty coexisting with mediocrity and ugliness in the same body. When a truly difficult decision is put before us, the answer to the solution is naturally self-evident.

"Hey?"

Bai Zhiyan answered the phone.
