Bo Hua Yun was furious and annoyed after his son Bo Yang ran out of the door without a care. He glanced at the wall clock, which read 5:01. Where could he have gone so early? No matter how hard he thought, he couldnt come up with an answer. Helpless, he flipped out his phone and dialed his administrative secretary, "Xiao Xie, help me look up the cell phone number of Yang Directors son from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, hurry, I have an urgent matter."
The secretary received the order and acted quickly, finding the number in no time. She promptly reported to the leader, "Secretary, Yang Directors sons phone number is XXXXXXXXX, do you need to inquire about anything else?"
"No, thats all right, thanks for your hard work, well, see you later——" Bai Huayun hung up the phone and dialed the number he had written down. He was very clear about which of his sons friends were closest to him, and Yang Pu was one of them. His sons affairs, he was also the most informed person, asking him should have an answer.
Yangpu people are still in a huff, suddenly another call comes over, still an unfamiliar number, picks up the phone and gets angry, "Who is it?" He needs to vent, if he doesnt let out his anger, it will get stuck in his heart and cause internal injury.
"Are you Yang Pu?" Bai Huawen thought he had disturbed someones sleep and spoke in a very polite tone.
Yangpu was even more puzzled when he heard that it was a middle-aged mans voice. "Yes, I am. Who are you?"
"Im Bai Yangs father, can Xiaopu ask you something?" Bai Huakun didnt have time to introduce himself either, he had another very important meeting later, being a leader means having many meetings, nothing else.
Yangpu was completely stunned, it turned out to be Uncle Bo, oh my god, I just spoke in a tone that was too rude, hurry up and change to a polite and courteous voice, "Uncle Bo, is that you? Sorry about earlier, please ask me anything, Ill tell you everything I know——" patted his own head with regret.
"Its like this, Bai Yang ran out of the house at 5 oclock this morning, I just want to ask, do you know where Bai Yang went?"
Yang Pu knew things were going to be troublesome after hearing this. It seemed that Bai Yang had secretly run off to Hangzhou without telling his family, and who knows when hell return? If I say I dont know, the Bai family might not find their son for a long time and may even report it to the police. But if I tell them the truth, wouldnt that be exposing Bai Yangs secret? That wouldnt be right by my bro!
Ill say it, these two people quarreled and all, but in their hearts they still regard each other as brothers.
After some deliberation, I decided to cover for Boyang for the time being and take things one step at a time. If all else fails, Ill personally go to Hangzhou to bring him back. Raising my voice slightly, I replied: "Uncle Bai, recently all high schools in Beijing are having basketball competitions, Boyang is our schools ace player, he had to attend an early morning training session, thats why he left early!" The basketball competition and Boyang being the ace player were true, but the school having an early morning training session was a lie. However, this excuse should be enough to get us through half a day, what else could I do?
Bohua Wen was half-believing and half-doubting, "Really? Your school is already having a training session so early?"
"Right, Uncle Bo, Im telling you, our schools goal is to win the championship. If we dont put in more effort than others, its impossible to get the championship, haha, what do you think?!" Yang Pu is really good at fooling people, no wonder every time Bo Yang asks for leave, he finds Yang Pu to take care of it. If someone else were to handle it, they wouldnt be able to fool people like Yang Pu does, that would be a big difference.
Bohua Wen thought for a moment and believed it, Yang Pu was an excellent kid, not inferior to his own son, what he said must be credible, besides, he also knew a little about the basketball game in Beijing colleges, estimated thats it, otherwise, his son could make something else happen, so he smiled and opened his mouth: "Okay, Im clear now, sorry for waking you up early, Uncle is really sorry, then I have other things to do, hang up first, thank you!"
"Uncle, youre too polite, then you go ahead and busy yourself, goodbye!" Yang Pu hung up the phone, his eyebrows furrowed tightly. What to do now? Bai Yang said this morning that he would take a few days off, but it seems like hes going to stay in Hangzhou for a long time. This is terrible! Cant let him stay there, have to hurry and call him back, cant keep this hidden for long...
Yang Pu redialed Bai Yangs phone, but this time he was so angry that he almost smashed his cell phone. Damn it! Bai Yang had turned off his phone. With a loud thud, Yang Pu jumped out of bed and decided to go to the Capital Airport to drag Bai Yang back!
The two of them were only 20 minutes apart, and Yang Pu felt that there was still hope to catch up with Bai Yang. At worst, they would be late for class, but it was better than being exposed for lying, which would lead to a lot more trouble.
But it was these 20 minutes that Yangpu still didnt catch up, the previous flight had just taken off, damn it, my luck is really bad, but Im still determined to bring him back, and surprisingly, Yangpu also booked a ticket to Hangzhou.
Are you kidding me? You think you can find Bai Yang just by going to Hangzhou? Youre not familiar with the place, where would you even start looking for him? But our classmate Yang Pu is really something else, hes determined to do things thoroughly and never gives up. Hes got character, Ill give him that. Fine, go ahead then.
Two "crazies" arrived in Hangzhou, Bai Yang immediately turned on his phone as soon as he got off the plane. He wanted to call Gu Zhi Kai, of course, he had to turn it on. "Gu Zhi Kai, have you found out which ward Tong Jing is in? And hows her condition now?" He was thinking about this all the way in the air and still thinking about it after landing, really thinking about someone until heaven and earth are moved.
"Bo Yang, hurry up and buy a local newspaper. The headline on the front page is a big report about the Tong familys news. Something really happened—"
On that side, Bai Yang asked Tong Jun, and on this side, Gu Zhi Kai answered Tong Jia. They were talking past each other, but they both had the character "Tong" in their names, so its not too off-topic, right?
The content of the newspaper is really rich, first its Secretary Tongs son taking drugs, then its Secretary Tongs daughter being shot in the head, and finally its Secretary Tong himself opening fire. Wow, this is more dramatic than a TV series! The citizens are watching with great interest, I guess Secretary Tong is going to be in trouble, and there will be a big shake-up in Zhejiang politics.
Bai Yang finished reading the news and didnt know what to do anymore. He really hadnt expected that so many things would happen in the Tong family overnight. What worried him most was the news of Tong Jing being hit on the head, from the pictures in the newspaper, her injuries were definitely not light, those traces of blood shocked his eyes, almost suffocating Bai Yang.
He rushed out like an arrow and jumped into a taxi heading straight for XX Hospital.
After Yang Pu got off the plane, he called Bai Yang with a try-on attitude. He didnt expect the call to go through, and his heart was inevitably excited. However, no one answered, and this mood fell from excitement to the bottom of the valley. This Bai Yang is like a woman, still holding a grudge over such a small thing, is it worth it? You can continue to sulk, but Im going to dig three feet underground to find you in Hangzhou and drag you back to Beijing today.
"Ideals" are "great", but when it comes to taking action, Yang still really didnt know where to start, and stood there for a long time, unable to grasp the purpose of his actions.
Just then, a newspaper vendor came over and said, "Hey buddy, want to buy a paper?"
Yang classmate can be funny, the newspaper does not go to buy, and grabbed others to ask about the road,"Hey, do you know, which several big yards are specially for people who live in office?" Yang Pu although unclear where Bao Yang is going, but he also knows that Bao Yang was living in a big yard in Hangzhou when he was young, as long as he finds that big yard, he will not be afraid to find Bao Yang!
The hawker stared at Yang in an inexplicable manner, "Are you going to buy a newspaper or not? If youre not buying one, then dont block me from doing business!"
"Alright, Ive bought several newspapers from you, but you have to tell me the name of that big courtyard." Yang didnt give others a free lunch for nothing, everything had to be an equal exchange.
"Wow, how would ordinary people like us know about such a big yard? Besides, where can you still find a big yard in Hangzhou now? Dont officials all live in villas and bungalows?" The peddler held the newspaper and was about to leave, not even bothering with this business anymore, and hurriedly looked for another customer to sell to.
"Give me a newspaper then—" Yang Pu also felt a bit embarrassed, hastily took over a newspaper and stuffed it with several coins to the vendor, walking forward dejectedly.
He picked up the newspaper and glanced at it casually, but this glance made Yang Pu quickly discover a clue, and he thought of many things. Tóng Jiàn Huá, Secretary Tong, the number one in the local party, was a high-ranking official with the surname Tong! There was also a girl on the cover with blood all over her head, although her face couldnt be seen clearly, but Yang Pu vaguely felt that this girl might be the Tong Jing mentioned by Bo Yang. Something big had happened, no wonder Bo Yang risked his life to come to Hangzhou. It finally made sense, but he still needed to find Bo Yang and go through the confession again to prevent him from revealing anything when he returned to Beijing. So Yang Pu followed the hospital mentioned in the newspaper.
After a whole night of surgery, Tong Jing has been out of danger to his life, but the situation is not optimistic. The doctor in charge said that Tong Jings left hemisphere central nervous system was severely damaged, especially the language center, which may lead to aphasia, i.e., inability to speak. Moreover, since the left brain nerve controls the right hand action, due to nerve injury, her right hand will also be unable to move. This is the worst-case scenario. However, even if it happens, there is no need to completely lose hope. The damaged brain nerves can still be stimulated through physical therapy, acupuncture, electrotherapy, and massage to make them recover and repair automatically. As for how long it takes to recover normally, nobody can say - one day or two days, one month or two months, or maybe longer.
