Chapter 74 The Truth

Seeing him guarding the clothes tightly, Bai Zhiyan could do nothing. "If you want it, take it. You are so old and still want to steal other people's clothes. What's wrong with you?"

At this time, Bai Jitai's voice outside the door interrupted the quarrel between the two, "Master Che, is it time to go?"

Che Jingcan was startled, leaning close to Bai Zhiyan and whispering, "Your brother seems to be targeting me."

Bai Zhiyan patted his head and said, "I'm targeting you too, so leave as soon as you're done."

"whispering sound."

When he went out again, Che Jingcan had lost his shyness in front of Bai Zhiyan, and instantly regained his arrogant and conceited look.

"I think you sneaked out, didn't you, Master Che?" Bai Jitai said with a fake smile, "There's a car ready for you at the door, so I won't take you down myself."

"Thank you, Director Bai."

While Che Jingcan was saying thank you, his eyes were always on Bai Zhiyan. He was still holding the clothes he had snatched from Bai Zhiyan in his hand, and before leaving, he insisted on pinching his face.

"I'm gone, don't miss me too much."

"Uh, get out of here!"

Che Jingcan glanced at Bai Jitai meaningfully and said, "Next time I will come in through the main entrance."

Bai Zhiyan rubbed his red face, looked at his leaving figure and was about to turn back, but was stopped by Bai Jitaei again.

"Is this what you told me it has nothing to do with you?"

Bai Jitai's tone was low and fierce, and his hands were very strong. Bai Zhiyan couldn't break free and looked at him with a frown.

"So what if they are related? It is my freedom to associate with whomever I want. You are meddling too much."

He was right, and Bai Jitai knew that he had no right to interfere in his private affairs, but when he saw Che Jingcan lying on his bed wearing Bai Zhiyan's clothes, the rationality in his brain was instantly confused.

"You like Che Jingcan? You don't like women?"

Bai Zhiyan's body stiffened. He looked at him with a look that Bai Jitai didn't understand. "I don't like it. The question you ask is ridiculous."

After saying this, he took advantage of Bai Jitai's daze to forcefully break free from his shackles and quickly ran back to his room.

Bai Jitai was still thinking about what he had just said, "I don't like it." Did he dislike Che Jingcan as a person, or did he dislike women?

Bai Zhiyan was still frightened after returning to the room. He picked up his mobile phone that had fallen on the ground, opened it and quickly checked if there was anything unusual inside, and finally opened the chat history between him and Ji Chengxun.

It seemed that Bai Jita didn't discover his secret, and Bai Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief.

Sitting in the Bai family's car, Che Jingcan was still looking at the direction of the Bai family reluctantly. This time he came in to ask for help from his younger brother who lived here. Next time, he must go in through the main gate of the Bai family to look for people openly.

But his sneaking out this time would definitely make his father very angry, and he would probably be put in solitary confinement again. In this case, I don’t know how long it will take before I can see Bai Zhiyan again.

In the afternoon, Bai Zhiyan asked Butler Li to help prepare some fruits, which he would take to see Jin Nanxian.

Bai Zhiyan never thought that one day he would come to the hospital not because of his injury or illness. He hesitated for a moment when he walked to the ward. He didn't know whether he would see complaints and disgust in Jin Nanxian's eyes. Whether in his past life or this life, he had only a handful of friends, and he was really afraid of losing this friend.

"Zhiyan, you're here, come in quickly."

Kim Nam-hyun was the first to notice Bai Zhiyan hesitating at the door, and called him eagerly.

Bai Zhiyan was startled, adjusted his state, raised a smile and pushed open the door. It turned out that Jin Zahuan was also there. He heard the sound and walked out of the bathroom. He nodded to Bai Zhiyan as a greeting.

"Brother Nanxian, this is for you." Bai Zhiyan handed over the fruit in his hand.

"Hey Zhiyan, you came here so why did you buy something?"

While Jin Nanxian said this, his eyes were already fixed on the pile of fruits.

The wound on his face was still wrapped in gauze, and the circles around his eyes were faintly blue and yellow, but his mental state seemed to be very good, much better than before when he was lying on the hospital bed dying.

Seeing his greedy look, Jin Zaihuan smiled and held the fruit basket in front of him, "Which one do you want to eat? I'll wash it for you."

"I want these cherries, grapes and those strawberries."

Jin Nanxian smiled and directed his brother to wash the fruit for him, and at the end he did not forget to praise him, "Hehe, I knew that my brother was the best to me."

Jin Zaihuan looked doting, without a trace of impatience, "Eat it, and tell me if it's not enough."

Bai Zhiyan was a little dazed when watching their interaction. So this is how brothers from ordinary families get along with each other?

He couldn't help but think of Bai Jitai. Every time they met, the atmosphere was tense and they both wanted to kill each other. They didn't act like brothers at all.

Seeing him distracted, Jin Nanxian realized that he was too self-absorbed and neglected him, and hurriedly chatted with him, "Ji Yan, why are you here today? Didn't you go to school?"

His voice called Bai Zhiyan back. He suppressed the complicated emotions in his eyes and gave a gentle smile. "I have asked for leave from home to help. I will go back tomorrow."

After a brief chat about daily life, Bai Zhiyan looked at Jin Zaihuan with some uneasiness, because what he wanted to know most was what happened between him and Cha Jingcan that day, why Cha Jingcan was so angry and hurt him like this. And Xu Shiyuan, what role did he play in that farce at that time.

Seeing his hesitation, Kim Nam-hyun casually said that he wanted to drink coffee and sent Kim Jae-hwan away. At this time, there were only two of them left in the ward.

"Zhiyan, do you have something to ask me?"

Bai Zhiyan didn't expect him to ask so directly, and he stopped being shy, "Nanxian, what happened that day? You and Che Jingcan have no grudges against each other, why did he hit you?"

Jin Nanxian put down the strawberry in his hand and said seriously, "To be honest, Jiyeon, I don't know why Che Jingcan was angry. He saw me helping you up that day, and he started beating me when he came in. He also said something about how I dared to touch you."

"what?"

"Ji Yan, I asked you before if you and Che Jingcan were in a relationship, and you said no at the time. But that day, he looked angry as if someone had touched his personal property. He seemed to treat you as his property. I just went to support you, but in his eyes, it was a malicious touch."

Kim Nam-hyun's analysis was clear and logical, but Bai Zhiyan's brain was extremely confused. He knew Cha Kyung-chan's bad temper, and usually he would be sour and sarcastic when he talked to Cha Kyung-chan and Liu Zhimin for a few more words, but what did Kim Nam-hyun mean when he said he would help himself up?

"Wait a minute, Nanxian, what do you mean by helping me up?"

Jin Nanxian pulled the corner of his mouth, "That day the monitor suddenly came to me and said that you seemed to be unwell, but he had something to do and couldn't leave, so he asked me to take you to the infirmary. I didn't think much about it and went straight to the classroom. After entering, I found that you were indeed lying on the table and I couldn't wake up no matter how I called you. I thought you fainted because of the illness, so I wanted to help you up and go to the infirmary. As a result, as soon as I put my hand on your shoulder, Che Jingcan came in, and then it became like this."

"Xu Shiyuan told you that I was not feeling well?"

Bai Zhiyan frowned. Nothing happened to him that day, so how did he end up in a coma as he thought?

Jin Nanxian nodded, "Yes, he was a little anxious at the time, and I didn't think much about it and went to find you."

What happened that day? Bai Zhiyan only remembered that he suddenly felt very sleepy after talking to Xu Shiyuan, and then fell asleep on the table. How did he fall into a coma?

Xu Shiyuan, what did Xu Shiyuan do again...

Bai Zhiyan suddenly had an idea: it was milk! Bai Zhiyan rarely took a nap, and that day he started to feel sleepy after drinking the milk that Xu Shiyuan gave him.

Did Xu Shiyuan put drugs in the milk?

Thinking of this possibility, Bai Zhiyan's body trembled suddenly. Xu Shiyuan is a madman! He can actually do such a thing.

Bai Zhiyan knew that he was dark and paranoid inside, but he dared to carry out such vicious and despicable means to harm others, not only hurting his new friend Jin Nanxian, but also successfully making himself hate Che Jingcan even more. He also played the role of a good man who saved people. It was really killing three birds with one stone, Xu Shiyuan.

Seeing that he looked pale and dazed, Jin Nanxian was a little worried, "Ji Yan, Ji Yan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell again?"

Bai Zhiyan put aside all distracting thoughts and forced a smile at him, "I'm fine, Nanxian, I'm just a little tired."

He couldn't tell Kim Nam-hyun about this. If he knew that Seo Shi-won was the culprit for his injury, he would find it hard to accept it.

"Then just leave me alone, Li Zhiyan. Go back and have a good rest."

Just as Bai Zhiyan was about to stand up and say goodbye, he met Jin Nanxian's eyes that seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong, Nanxian? Do you have anything else to say?"

Jin Nanxian trembled his lips, took a deep breath and finally spoke, "Ji Yan, although I don't know what your relationship with Che Jingcan is, I always feel that his feelings for you are not ordinary. You told me before that you had nothing to do with him, and I naturally believed you, but I think Che Jingcan is a little... uh, a little abnormal."

In Kim Nam-hyun's eyes, Cha Kyung-chan is now no different from those domestic violence men.

"Ji Yan, don't think I'm meddling in your business. I really think he's too dangerous, and I'm worried that you'll get hurt if you get too close to him."

After hearing what Kim Nam-hyun said, Bai Zhiyan was silent for a moment. There was nothing wrong with what he said. Che Jingcan was indeed an emotionally unstable and abnormal person.

"Nanxian, don't worry about me. I know all this."

In his eyes, Che Jingcan's personality is not worth mentioning. The most difficult person is Xu Shiyuan, who is the root of the problem.

Bai Zhiyan stood up, smiled, opened his arms and gently hugged him, "I'm going to go back first, I'll come see you when I have time."

When Bai Zhiyan returned to the Bai family, he was still in a daze and staggered when getting off the car. Driver Zhou was worried about him and stayed behind him to protect him until he entered the gate before leaving.

The viciousness of Xu Shiyuan was beyond his imagination, and he couldn't help but recall what happened in his previous life.

Because he stole the first place from him, he secretly hid the bracelet left by Che Jingcan's mother in his schoolbag. Later he reported it to Che Jingcan's younger brother, causing him to be bullied ever since then.

It was his fault. Xu Shiyuan had always been a vicious person, but he pretended to be too nice in front of him in this life, and he almost forgot his true nature.

He buried his head in the pillow, and the strong sense of guilt towards Kim Nam-hyun almost overwhelmed him. No matter whether it was Cha Kyung-chan or Seo Shi-won, he would never be able to escape the responsibility that Kim Nam-hyun would be hurt.

"Buzzing—"

Speak of the devil, here he comes. Bai Zhiyan's phone starts vibrating. This is the message reminder he set specifically for Xu Shiyuan.

“Jiyeon, I heard that you came to the hospital to see Namhyun, why didn’t you ask me to come with you?”

Bai Zhiyan snorted coldly. He was afraid that he would ask Jin Nanxian something that would be unfavorable to him.

"Will you come to school tomorrow? I haven't seen you these past few days."

"The teacher said that you have a subject that you missed and need to make up for it in the next few days. Do you need me to help you with the make-up?"

"Are you still feeling unwell? I was really scared when you suddenly fainted that day. I was really worried about you."

This is the fundamental difference between Xu Shiyuan and Che Jingcan. Che Jingcan likes to play it straight, and when you click on his messages, almost all of them are words like "I miss you so much, I want to see you", but Xu Shiyuan always likes to beat around the bush.

"Ji Yan, did Cha Kyung Chan come to see you? He is really too much. When I saw the wound on Kim Nam Hyun's face today, I still have lingering fears about how he beat someone that day."

"Ji Yan, didn't you say he likes you? No one expresses love by using violence."

Seeing this, Bai Zhiyan slightly agreed. It turned out that Xu Shiyuan could also say some normal things.

"Why don't you always reply to my messages? I'm really worried about you."

"Or are you angry and deliberately not replying to me?"

Bai Zhiyan felt his scalp tingling when he saw the last message. Since Xu Shiyuan had just returned from the hospital, he must be wondering if Jin Nanxian had said anything to him, so he had been ignoring him.

In order to dispel his doubts, Bai Zhiyan had to endure the discomfort in his heart and reply to him.

"Shi Yuan, I just got home. I didn't mean to ignore your message."

The other side responded quickly.

"How is your health now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"

"I'm fine, Shi Yuan, don't worry."

"So is it true that you will come to school tomorrow?"

"Of course it's true, how could I lie to you? I wish I could go there today so that I can see you soon. =^_^="

When Xu Shiyuan saw Bai Zhiyan's message, he was shocked. He bent his fingers and gently stroked the words "see you", and a smile appeared on his gloomy face.

"Me too."

After the chat, Xu Shiyuan still looked at the message he replied reluctantly. Bai Zhiyan said that he would not lie to him, but he knew that perhaps their initial meeting and contact were lies made up by Bai Zhiyan.

But he will not expose it, even if it is a lie. After acting for too long, there will come a day when he can no longer distinguish between reality and falsehood. He is willing to accompany Bai Zhiyan in this farce full of lies and deception. As long as he stays sober, the only person who will be trapped in the whirlpool in the end will be Bai Zhiyan.
