When Jiang Chen walked out of the ward, he saw Shi Fengyue sitting on a bench in the corridor. When he saw him come out, Shi Fengyue stood up and asked lazily, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the He family."
This is a single room with good soundproofing. Shi Fengyue knew that Jiang Chen and Shen Xu had something to say, so he deliberately did not go in. He did not know what had happened. When he heard that Jiang Chen was going to the He family, he just thought it was a private matter between him and the He family and did not ask any more questions.
He stood up and said, "I'll take you there."
Jiang Chen's lips were tight, his jaw moved slightly, as if nodding, and he walked past him and forward.
Shi Fengyue then realized something was wrong, and caught up with him in two or three steps, walking side by side with him, his tone more casual than before, with more concern: "How did Huo Bo get injured?"
Jiang Chen paused, the air around him suddenly cooled, and a frost covered his face: "He Qianjian beat me."
"He Qianjian?"
There was a hint of surprise in Shi Fengyue's eyes. In his impression, although He Qianjian was vain and hypocritical, his disguise to the outside world was almost flawless. If it weren't for a few accidental accidents before, he would have found it difficult to discover He Qianjian's extraordinary abilities and his style of saying one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.
According to He Qianjian's previous caution, he would not take action if he really didn't like someone. But if the target was someone who was involved with Jiang Chen, it would be hard to say.
When the He family approached Jiang Chen and the truth about Jiang Chen and He Qianjian's identities came to light, Shi Fengyue was the only outsider who knew about it, except Xiang Hong who produced the test report.
It was not that Jiang Chen told him intentionally, but he guessed it from the sudden increase in the frequency of contact between Jiang Chen and the He family. Afterwards, Jiang Chen did not hide it from him and directly admitted it.
At that time, Shi Fengyue reminded Guo Jiangchen to pay attention to He Qianjian.
Unexpectedly, after such a short period of time, Jiang Chen did not encounter any accident, but his friends were implicated.
Shi Fengyue didn't ask any more questions. He opened the passenger door and went around to the driver's seat to drive. There was no conversation along the way. When he was about to reach the He family, he glanced at the boy in the rearview mirror, whose face was always calm and almost indifferent, and asked, "How are you going to deal with it?"
Jiang Chen did not answer. Shi Fengyue lowered the car window so that the security guards at the entrance and exit could see the people inside clearly.
When the security guard saw Jiang Chen, he immediately smiled and said, "Good evening, Master Jiang." He let him pass after saying hello.
Shi Fengyue didn't say anything until the car stopped in front of the garage on the basement floor of the He family. The car door opened, Jiang Chen pressed the doorbell, and Shi Fengyue got out of the car a step later and stood beside him.
Yang Yun was helping He Qianyu with her homework. He Yanfeng was in the study upstairs. Only the aunt who stayed at He's house was in the living room. She glanced at the surveillance camera and saw that it was Jiang Chen. She immediately laughed and said, "Master Jiang Chen, come in quickly."
As an old lady who once took care of Mrs. He, the aunt of the He family naturally knew Jiang Chen’s true identity. Over the past few months, Jiang Chen would be present at every monthly family dinner. Even if he could hide it from outsiders, the servants of the He family could not conceal it.
She knew how much He Yanfeng and his wife valued the child, so she went upstairs to inform them immediately after opening the door. He Yanfeng and Yang Yun were both very surprised. Jiang Chen had never come back without saying hello, but after not seeing him for a long time, they were both surprised.
He Qianyu was also very surprised. She was standing aside when her aunt notified Yang Yun. She didn't want to do her homework anymore. She put down her pen, jumped off the stool, and ran out of the room impatiently, not forgetting to knock on He Qianmin's door.
——Boom boom boom. Boom boom boom.
The knocking rhythm was very fast, and one could hear the excitement and eagerness of the person knocking.
He Qianmin was working on a competition question. He had just found an idea when there was a knock on the door. The distinct rhythm made all the clues he had just come up disappear. He put down his pen, frowned, and forcefully opened the door, with anger on his face.
But before he could vent his anger, it was completely dispelled by He Qianyu's next words.
"Brother! Brother is back!"
Ever since she knew Jiang Chen was her biological brother, He Qianyu changed her way of addressing him. He Qianmin is still the second brother, He Qianjian was changed from eldest brother to Brother Qianjian, and Jiang Chen was changed from Brother Jiang Chen directly to Brother. The closeness and distance of the relationship is clear at the first glance.
Because of this incident, He Qianjian secretly cursed the He family members, saying that each one was more cold-blooded than the other and only cared about blood ties and not years of affection.
He Qianyu knocked on the door loudly, and He Qianjian next door also heard it. He heard these words as soon as he opened the door, sneered in his heart, and closed the door again.
The movement of his slamming the door was neither too big nor too small, but his room was right next to He Qianmin, so He Qianmin and He Qianyu naturally saw his movement clearly.
He Qianyu shrank her neck and said belatedly, "Brother Qianjian is unhappy."
He Qianmin sneered, closed the door and walked out, "Who cares about him?"
Ever since she saw He Qianjian and Jiang Chen fighting last time, He Qianyu had an inexplicable fear of him. Later, as Jiang Chen's identity was exposed, He Qianjian became more and more gloomy, and her relationship with him became more distant. Seeing that He Qianmin ignored He Qianjian, she followed him downstairs step by step.
…
The iron gate opened with a click, and Jiang Chen walked straight in. Shi Fengyue followed him slowly. It was his first time to visit the He family, so he looked around leisurely.
As soon as I reached the first floor, I saw He Qianyu jumping down the last few steps of the stairs and running towards Jiang Chen: "Brother!"
Jiang Chen had long been accustomed to He Qianyu doing this every time they met. The coldness in his eyes faded a little, and he opened his arms to catch her: "Be careful not to fall."
"Brother." He Qianmin walked down the stairs half a step behind. Seeing Shi Fengyue behind Jiang Chen, he was stunned for a moment and paused: "Why are you here?"
"He sent me here." Jiang Chen explained casually and asked about the main matter: "Where is He Qianjian?"
He Qianmin frowned: "What do you want to do with him?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Yun and He Yanfeng also went downstairs. They were very happy to see Jiang Chen, but they were also surprised for a moment when they saw Shi Fengyue beside him.
He Yanfeng smiled, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. Perhaps he had not taken them off when he was in the study just now, and his smile looked more elegant: "Xiao Shi is here too."
Shi Fengyue put away his lazy look and nodded politely to He Yanfeng and Yang Yun: "Uncle He, Aunt He."
Yang Yun's attention was all on Jiang Chen. Seeing that he didn't look very well, he nodded to Shi Fengyue, then immediately grabbed Jiang Chen's hand and asked with concern: "Why are you so thin? And why is your face so pale? Are you wearing too little, or are you working too much at the institute?"
Jiang Chen pursed his lips, and the cold anger was dissipated a lot in He Qianyu's hug and Yang Yun's soft voice. He pulled the corners of his lips and did not forget the purpose of coming here.
"My mother just gave birth."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the living room fell silent, and Yang Yun's hand holding his also froze.
He Yanfeng was the first person to know about this. He not only knew that Yang Yun had given birth to a daughter, but also knew that before Yang Yun gave birth, Jiang Chen and Xiang Hong had a conversation in the garden of Yanda Affiliated Hospital, which was overheard by Jiang Zhuo.
As soon as Jiang Chen opened his mouth, he thought Jiang Chen was here to talk about this matter. He took off his glasses and was about to speak when he heard Jiang Chen change the subject: "While she was giving birth, I received a call. My best friend who grew up with me was beaten and is in surgery."
"The surgery ended fifty minutes ago. From here to here, he was hit twice with the sharp edge of a wooden stool." Jiang Chen ran his index finger down from above his right eye to the end of his eye near the temple. "Twelve stitches were needed. He is still unconscious."
Yang Yun was stunned, and subconsciously asked: "It's so serious, who hit you? What happened?"
He Yanfeng vaguely understood that when Jiang Chen left the Yanda Affiliated Hospital, Xiang Hong called him and said that Jiang Chen answered a phone call and even left after only holding his sister for a short while after she was born. The matter must be quite serious because he looked very ugly when he left.
At that time, Xiang Hong asked if something might have happened and whether he should send someone to investigate. If there was something wrong, he could help. However, He Yanfeng refused. He knew Jiang Chen's ability and believed that he could handle it himself, and secretly. He also hoped that if there was something serious, Jiang Chen would ask him for help.
Through this incident, perhaps the father and son could get closer.
Now that Jiang Chen has come here and mentioned the matter of his friend, it is highly likely that the He family may need to intervene in handling this matter.
He Yanfeng smiled and said confidently, "Is there any trouble with your friend, or is there any background of the person who injured him? Do you want dad to help?"
Shi Fengyue's eyelids twitched slightly, he looked up at He Yanfeng, the corners of his mouth curled up a little, then secretly suppressed it. Why didn't he realize that Tuanan's boss was not very smart before.
He Yanfeng was completely unaware of Shi Fengyue's hidden gloating. His attention was all on Jiang Chen. Seeing Jiang Chen pursing his lips slightly, he recalled what he had investigated when he learned of Jiang Chen's identity. He also knew how important his two friends were to him, so he immediately said, "Tell Dad that no matter who the other party is, they must pay the price for hurting someone like this. Dad will definitely help you."
He Qianmin had a vague premonition. He remembered the previous phone call and the person who asked where He Qianjian was as soon as he entered the door. He frowned and looked unhappy.
"Brother, who is injured? Brother Shen Xu or Brother Huo Bo?"
"Huo Bo." After Jiang Chen answered He Qianmin, he turned his gaze back to He Yanfeng and Yang Yun. He gently pulled out the hand that Yang Yun was holding, his eyes dark, "I will make him pay the price myself, I just hope you don't interfere in this matter."
He Yanfeng frowned slightly, something flashed through his mind, and asked, "Who hurt your friend?"
Jiang Chen opened his lips and spoke word by word: "He Qianjian."
Yang Yun's face changed slightly, and she turned to look at her husband. However, He Yanfeng's face showed no ripples at all. He only looked into Jiang Chen's eyes and asked him, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Chen said nothing, looking towards the stairs behind him. He Yanfeng looked at him silently for a few seconds, then slightly turned sideways to make room for one person to pass.
As Jiang Chen passed by, he said calmly, "Violence can't solve any problem."
Jiang Chen paused slightly and passed him by.
Violence cannot solve any problem, and fighting violence with violence is always the most crude and low-level means of revenge.
For a long time, Jiang Chen had always thought so. Even though He Qianjian had provoked him many times before, and even though they had a life-and-death feud, Jiang Chen had never thought of using violence to solve the problem.
In the final analysis, it was because he had never taken He Qianjian seriously from the beginning. In Jiang Chen's eyes, his opponent had always been the system in He Qianjian's mind. He Qianjian had done all kinds of evil things, but he relied on the system to bully others, and those evil things were most likely caused by the connivance of the system. When he lost the system, he would naturally be nothing.
There is no need for him to deal with him at all. A person who relies all his halo on external objects will be like a puddle of mud once this external object disappears.
What Jiang Chen wanted was never for He Qianjian to pay with his life, except that he occupied the body of Jiang Zhuo and Yang Si's biological son, because he wanted him to see with his own eyes what kind of retribution he would get for the evil things he had done.
However, it was not until Yang Si and Huo Bo met with accidents one after another that Jiang Chen realized that these spiritual revenges took too long. Before the system in He Qianjian was truly removed, he would continue to hurt those around him without fear.
His previous disregard actually turned into another kind of indulgence. He made He Qianjian feel that he was weak, so He Qianjian defined him as being bullied. It was precisely because of his contempt, because he did nothing to He Qianjian on the surface, that He Qianjian would step on his bottom line step by step, provoking and hurting the person most important to him.
Now, he will let He Qianjian know that everything has a price, and he will pay the price personally.
Jiang Chen knocked on He Qianjian's door three times.
He Qianjian opened the door as requested, but before he could see the person outside the door clearly, he was hit in the face by a heavy punch, followed by a kick that knocked him to the ground. The severe pain in his coccyx and nose made him scream. He raised his eyes to see the person outside the door, and hatred instantly burst out in his eyes.
"Jiang Chen!"
Jiang Chen closed the door expressionlessly, and locked it with a click.
He Qianjian heard the voice and subconsciously felt something was wrong. He shrank back a few steps and asked cautiously, "What are you going to do?"
"What you did to Hobo, I will do to you."
He Qianjian froze, thinking of Huo Bo lying in a pool of blood that afternoon. He couldn't help but feel a palpitation in his heart, and cold sweat instantly spread down his back.
Could it be that Huo Bo is dead and Jiang Chen wants to kill him to avenge his friend?
Thinking of this, He Qianjian shuddered, and climbed up with difficulty and embarrassment, quickly ran to the desk, swept his eyes across the table, and quickly picked up the heaviest sculpture decoration. The pain in his nose was so severe that his head was a little dizzy. He Qianjian gritted his teeth and said to Jiang Chen: "This is the He family, do you really dare to do it here?"
Seeing Jiang Chen approaching step by step, He Qianjian leaned against the wall and raised his voice: "You are not afraid that your parents and grandparents will come after you for doing this. Do you think you can do anything to me just because you are their biological son? I tell you, I have been in the He family for 18 years. I know them better than you. If you hurt me today, their impression of you will definitely drop again and again. It will be difficult for you to get the resources of the He family or enter Tunan in the future."
He Qianjian spoke very quickly, and it only took him a few seconds to finish this long string of words. However, in just these few seconds, Jiang Chen was already right in front of him.
When he was half a meter away from He Qianjian, Jiang Chen paused. He Qianjian's tense shoulders relaxed a little. He was delighted, thinking that Jiang Chen had listened to his words. There was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, but no trace of it appeared on his face.
“If you go out now, I can tell my parents that we were just having fun and you accidentally hurt me. I believe this will be very hard on you…what are you doing!”
There was a scream and the dull sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. He Yanfeng and Yang Yun looked at each other and quickly went upstairs. Shi Fengyue followed behind them, not considering himself an outsider at all, and went upstairs as well.
He Qianmin pushed He Qianyu to the aunt at home and reminded her, "Don't let her go upstairs." Then she took three or four steps and went upstairs in three or five steps.
"Chenchen!" Yang Yun knocked hard on the door: "Chenchen, open the door, don't be impulsive!"
He Yanfeng also said in a deep voice: "Little Minister, calm down a little and don't let it lead to irreparable consequences."
There was no movement from inside the door. Yang Yun and He Yanfeng looked at each other and knocked on the door even more violently.
Before I could take a few pictures, the door opened.
Jiang Chen stood inside the door, glanced at them lightly, and then slowly adjusted his sleeves. The soft folds of his shirt cuffs were rolled up at his arms. The boy had a casual temperament and no expression on his handsome face. His eyelashes were clean and soft when he lowered his eyes. If it weren't for the scream just now, the people outside the door might have thought that he was just reading a book in the study, or an elegant literary work.
Yang Yun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted and stretched his neck to look inside.
"Where's Qian Jian?"
Jiang Chen moved aside to let them in.
The room was empty, with only the wind blowing in through the wide-open floor-to-ceiling window behind the desk, causing the soft gauze curtains to dance in the wind.
"Brother, where is He Qianjian?"
He Qianmin asked everyone's question, but Shi Fengyue looked around. When his eyes met Jiang Chen, the corners of his mouth curled up and he slowly made a mouth shape.
Jiang Chen saw clearly what he said, and the anger in his heart dissipated with the wind, and he rolled his eyes at him.
Suddenly, a low wailing sound was heard outside the window, and it blew into the bedroom along with the wind. Everyone reacted and walked towards the terrace outside the window.
"Qianjian?" Yang Yun was relieved when she saw He Qianjian falling into the flower bed, but she couldn't help but worry: "Are you okay?"
He Qianjian looked at the heads sticking out from the terrace, the shame and resentment in his heart surging. He gritted his teeth, and his resentful gaze passed through the first few people, as if he saw Jiang Chen in the room.
He covered his broken leg, his face twitching slightly in pain as he thought about what had just happened.
He thought Jiang Chen stopped because he was convinced by him, but he didn't expect Jiang Chen to suddenly turn around, pick up the small solid wood table next to the sofa with one hand, and the things on the small coffee table fell to the ground with a clatter. He Qianjian instantly remembered that he had smashed Huo Bo's chair, and almost in a flash, he realized what Jiang Chen was going to do.
He Qianjian stepped back immediately, but found that he had nowhere to retreat. Seeing that Jiang Chen had turned around and came towards him again, he knew that he could not beat Jiang Chen at all. He immediately opened the floor-to-ceiling glass door and fled to the terrace. Before he could lock the glass door, Jiang Chen had already squeezed in.
In his hand, he was holding a small table that was not much different from the solid wooden chair, and without blinking, he smashed it on his right leg. The sound of bones breaking was accompanied by an indescribable pain. He Qianjian was in so much pain that his eyes went black. Just as he came to his senses, he saw Jiang Chen lifting the stool again, and his target seemed to be his right leg that might have been broken.
If this stool falls on him, he might have to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life!
He Qianjian tried desperately to escape, but the pain in his injured leg went straight into his bones. He was sweating profusely. When he looked up and met Jiang Chen's calm eyes, he felt a chill running up his spine and his hair stood on end. He couldn't help but beg for mercy: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have killed your friend, please let me go, I was wrong, don't kill me..."
Jiang Chen paused, then suddenly looked at him deeply, weighed the coffee table in his hand, as if he was filled with kindness.
"You jump down from here and I'll let you go, or this table will break your other leg. Choose one."
His room was on the second floor. If he wasn't injured, there would be no problem jumping down. Even if he was injured now, it was better than having Jiang Chen break his leg again.
He Qianjian didn't hesitate at all. He rolled and crawled over the Roman column-like stone railing of the terrace and landed on the ground with a thud.
It was not until he felt the stinging pain of countless tiny wounds on his body and the sharp pain in his buttocks that he remembered that this place had been used by He Qianyu to grow cacti some time ago.
