After treating Chaoge's hand injury, the two went next door to find Han Xiaojun.
Han Xiaojun has some problems with his eyes, which are still in the development stage. If not properly treated, it may affect Han Xiaojun's future vision.
"It's okay, it's not a big deal. Luckily you protected it with your hands and came to the hospital just in time," the doctor said to Chaoge and Han Xiaojun. "Just rest well from now on."
Han Lin nodded: "Thank you for your help."
"That's nothing, but I just realized this is your brother," the doctor examining Han Xiaojun said. "You have quite a few brothers."
Han Lin said, "Yes, there are quite a lot. I'll take them out first. They still need to go to the police station to give their statements."
"Go ahead."
After leaving the office, Chaoge didn't want Han Lin to continue following him. He typed to Han Lin on his phone: [You should go to work quickly. We are fine and will be able to go home soon.]
Han Lin also knew that it was not easy for him to ask for leave, so he could only helplessly send them both out of the hospital.
The police station was not far from the hospital, so they took a car there with the little girl and the property management police.
In the car, Chaoge and Han Xiaojun learned that the little girl was the daughter of the family living upstairs from them, and the one who beat her was her brother, and this was not the first time such a thing had happened.
Han Xiaojun looked very bad.
Chaoge touched his head, not knowing what to say.
He was born in a loving family. The word domestic violence was too far away from him, and he had no way of experiencing what it felt like.
When Chaoge saw the little girl today, he was more shocked than panicked.
I also feel a little overwhelmed.
They quickly took notes. The little girl was very familiar with the property management, and they had been protecting her since they arrived.
It just so happened that there wasn't much for Chaoge and the others to do at the moment, so after the police told them they could leave, Chaoge took Han Xiaojun home and would call them back when there was any further progress.
Chaoge felt very uncomfortable seeing Han Xiaojun's eye swollen from being beaten.
His younger brother came to his house to play, and not only did he not take good care of him, he also got him injured. Although he was trying to help others, he still has to take a lot of responsibility for this matter.
and……
Chaoge looked at his right hand. The doctor said he needed to rest for at least three or four days, preferably a week.
Han Lin definitely wouldn't allow him to draw during this period. That was fine, but he couldn't move his right hand, so how would he do the housework and prepare three meals a day?
Chaoge is sad.
Han Xiaojun has been silent since leaving the hospital. After arriving home, he told Chaoge that he wanted to rest, then went back to his room and closed the door.
Chaoge stood in the living room for a while, feeling inexplicably uneasy, but she didn't know how to tell Han Xiaojun, so she had to go back to her bedroom.
Since he couldn't start writing and submitting the manuscript for the next few days, Chaoge sent a message to the editor in advance.
Ding Ding: This excuse for delaying the manuscript is too old-fashioned, little Gugu.
Eating well: It’s not an excuse [laughing and crying].
Eat well: [Photo]
Ding Ding: Damn, teacher, why is your hand so swollen!
Ding Ding: How long will it take for this to heal?
Eat well: The doctor said it will take 4-7 days, and after I can start writing, I will give you what I owe as soon as possible.
Eat well: Sorry...
Ding Ding: It’s okay, it’s okay. This is the first time you’ve delayed submitting your manuscript. Our editorial department even made a bet before to see how long you can last without delaying your submission. Hahaha.
Eat well: ...How long will you bet?
Ding Ding: 2 months [crying]
Ding Ding: The main reason is that I didn’t expect that the teacher is so self-disciplined. He has never delayed submitting the manuscript in all these years. If you hadn’t said today that you couldn’t submit the manuscript on time, I would have almost forgotten about this bet.
Eat well: [Haha]
Chaoge felt a little helpless because of what happened in the afternoon and he was not in the mood to talk more about this matter with the editor.
After speaking a few words, he closed the dialog box.
After exiting WeChat on his phone, Chaoge sat on the edge of the bed in a daze.
His mind was in a mess, as if he was thinking about nothing, but also as if he was thinking about a lot of things.
Han Xiaojun, the little girl, and the face of that violent man kept flashing in his mind.
When he came to his senses, he found that it had turned dark outside.
Chaoge took out his cell phone and looked at it. It was 8:15.
Han Lin sent him a message after six o'clock saying that he had an emergency surgery and would be home late.
Chaoge had never expected that what happened at noon would have such a big impact on him, and he was in a trance for such a long time.
Thinking of Han Xiaojun who was still hungry in the guest room, Chaoge felt filled with guilt.
Now it takes half an hour to order takeout, so Chaoge simply called Han Xiaojun to eat noodles downstairs.
Since Chaoge couldn't use chopsticks with her right hand, she ordered some dumplings and ate them with a spoon in her left hand.
Han Xiaojun was still very silent. He didn't speak, and Chaoge couldn't speak either. He couldn't use his hands to type and communicate with him like usual.
The meal was unusually silent, as if they had returned to the time when Han Xiaojun was still full of hostility towards him.
Chaoge really wanted to talk to Han Xiaojun, but this matter made it difficult for Chaoge to start.
Is it possible to tell Han Xiaojun not to help in the future when encountering such a situation, so as to avoid being hurt? This is impossible. Regardless of what Han Xiaojun thinks, Chaoge himself cannot stay out of it.
Did he ask Han Xiaojun to hide behind him from now on? Chaoge knew Han Xiaojun wouldn't listen. This afternoon, Chaoge tried very hard to pull Han Xiaojun behind him, but Han Xiaojun didn't move at all.
Chaoge was at a loss, feeling that whatever he said now would be wrong. He could only watch in silence as Han Xiaojun returned to the bedroom and locked himself in the room.
Han Lin didn't get home until half past ten.
As soon as he entered the room, he grabbed Chaoge's hand and looked around.
Chaoge shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
"What happened today was too dangerous." Han Lin said.
Chaoge nodded, but he hadn't expected this to happen before he opened the door.
Han Lin actually still didn't know what exactly happened at that time. In the afternoon, Han Xiaojun just briefly told him the situation, but even with just a few simple words, seeing the tragic appearance of the two of them was enough to scare Han Lin himself.
Chaoge took out her tablet and told Han Lin bit by bit what had happened in the afternoon.
No matter how big or small the matter is.
Han Lin watched very seriously. Chaoge was lying on the bed, so he lay beside Chaoge, put his arm around Chaoge's waist and held him in his arms.
"That's how it is." Chaoge concluded, "If Xiaojun hadn't been here today, I definitely wouldn't have been able to protect that little sister on my own."
Han Lin hummed.
Chaoge typed again: [After he came back, he kept himself locked in his room. I was very worried and felt that something was wrong with him, but I didn't know how to tell him.]
Han Lin lifted a strand of Chaoge's hair without saying anything.
He probably knew why Han Xiaojun was like this.
Although the situation was not as serious as that of the family upstairs, he and Han Xiaojun were also children who were beaten since childhood.
Corruption was his parents' specialty, and Han Lin was beaten countless times when he was young.
Although he hadn't lived at home for many years, Han Lin could guess that his parents would never back down on this matter and that it would only get worse.
Both he and Han Xiaojun are victims of failed education.
