Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Huo Zhongshan stepped forward step by step...
Huo Zhongshan stepped forward step by step, his shoes making light sounds as he stepped on the muddy puddle. He gently picked up Fang Shimian and treated him with care as if he were the rarest treasure in the world.
He was so light that it seemed as if the mountain wind could carry him away.
Huo Zhongshan subconsciously hugged the person tightly, but immediately reacted and relaxed.
The young boy in his arms was so fragile, so fragile that the two powerful men in front of them did not dare to check his breathing at the first moment. They just kept moving forward and striding down the mountain.
Maybe I was just too tired from climbing and didn't want to wake up.
"Oh my god! This ancestor really came up, my god, what a sin!" The middle-aged man put out his cigarette and ran forward. He grabbed Fang Shimian's limp wrist with lightning speed and touched it, shouting anxiously: "He's still breathing, he's still breathing, hurry down the mountain and find a hospital!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
I don’t know if it was because God felt sorry for Fang Shimian, but the rain gradually became lighter.
The accompanying medical staff on standby provided Fang Shimian with basic first aid in the car and continuously reported the patient's condition to the doctor waiting at the hospital.
The way down the mountain was more cautious than going up the mountain, but the drivers trained by the Huo family were all from the army and had been through many battles. They drove fast and steadily, and soon rushed down the mountain and rushed to the hospital at a very fast speed.
Huo Zhongshan cut open Fang Shimian's completely wet down jacket, carefully took off his shoes and socks, covered him with the blanket in the car, and held his cold and wet feet in his palms. He looked at the wound on the boy's neck that was whitened by the rain, his face as cold as frost.
"Who the hell is so cruel?" Huo Jun looked at Fang Huaimian's purple cheek with a cold expression.
Huo Zhongshan looked dignified without being angry, and said slowly: "Fang Guohong."
"Shi Mian's father? Is that man sick? He beat the child like that when he was little, and didn't treat him as a human being. He is still like this when he grows up. What an old man."
Huo Jun threw away his rain-soaked coat, feeling a little annoyed. "This guy is also a fool. He didn't resist or run away when he was beaten. I don't know where his head is."
Huo Zhongshan lowered his eyes and was silent for a moment, then said, "Don't mention his childhood in front of Shi Mian, and don't let him know that we saw him."
"It doesn't matter what I said. We only met once and we rarely go back. But if I had known that this guy was so sincere, I should have found a way to take him away. It's a pity that Zhu Ze guarded so closely. I don't know what he was doing..."
Huo Zhongshan remained silent.
Fang Shimian was often violently punished by his parents when he was a child, and all the children who lived in the yard for a long time knew him.
In the beginning, many neighbors actually tried to persuade them, but they were accused of meddling in other people’s business. As time went on, everyone just ignored it as long as it wasn’t too excessive.
Moreover, most parents also forbid their children to play with Fang Shimian. Firstly, they are worried that children growing up in this state will become extremely radical. Secondly... parents will never discipline their children for no reason. There must be some problems that they are not aware of.
Children are the most sensitive. They will form groups and exclude those who don't fit in.
To go from being liked by everyone to being bullied by everyone can actually be done with just a loud slap in the face in public.
Children are innocent and cruel. When their concepts of good and evil are not yet formed, when they find that a child is not loved by his parents, they will quickly learn how to treat him.
So in the end, Fang Shimian had almost no friends in the yard.
When Huo Jun was a teenager, he was raised in another house by his father. He seldom came here, and when he did, he never stayed long. But in these few short times, he always ran into Fang Shimian being punished.
It was summer at that time, and Fang Shimian should have been in elementary school. He was very small and squatting by the flower bed playing alone. He was wearing sky blue overalls and a white T-shirt, and was very cute.
Huo Jun was watching from upstairs at the time. Just as he was about to ask his second brother who was sitting opposite him whose child that was, he saw a menacing man coming down from upstairs.
In front of all the other children, Fang Shimian was severely beaten several times. Shimian started crying and spread his hands to show his father, crying and saying that he was not dirty, and only then was he let go.
There were a few more muffled thunders in the distant sky.
The main gate of Anhe Hospital opened and the SUV drove directly into a special passage. Fang Shimian was taken over by medical staff. The emergency personnel immediately conducted a preliminary examination and then he was taken for an X-ray.
"The patient has multiple soft tissue contusions, a left rib fracture, and a suspected ruptured spleen..."
The surgery required a signature, and the Huo brothers didn't know who to notify for a moment. Huo Zhongshan originally planned to let the hospital go through the emergency approval process, but he heard a nurse run out and say, "The patient is awake!"
The doctor's face relaxed and he was about to go back and ask the patient to sign as soon as possible, but the nurse said anxiously: "The patient wants to give up treatment."
Huo Zhongshan's face darkened, suppressing a certain anger and barely perceptible panic, "Please tell the patient that if the treatment is delayed any further, the top of Wusong Mountain will become a children's playground."
Those in power always keep their words. Huo Jun glanced at Huo Zhongshan and said nothing.
These words seemed to be quite powerful, and the red light for the operation was turned on after a while.
The two people outside breathed a sigh of relief. Huo Jun asked, "Do we need to notify Fang Shimian's parents?"
"Notify?" Huo Zhongshan took the questionnaire handed over by the bodyguard, his eyes cold, "Bring Fang Guohong here."
He wanted to hear what heinous crime Fang Shimian had committed that was worthy of the usually magnanimous and elegant Dean Fang to make such a fuss and want to kill his own son!
When the bodyguard found Fang Guohong's home from Oasis Bay, Fang Guohong was coaxing his crying little son. He was surprised and delighted to hear that Huo Zhongshan wanted to see him.
He didn't expect that his good-for-nothing eldest son would still be willing to do things for him after being beaten. When he walked out of the house under his wife's happy gaze, Fang Guohong even felt a little resentful that Fang Shimen was not smart enough.
If you are willing to do the thing, just agree to it. But you had to show off verbally. Not only did you get beaten into a lifeless state, but you also made him lose face in front of his wife. You are a loser!
Forget it. I should be nicer to him in the future. After all, he is my own flesh and blood.
Fang Guohong was still acting like a dean when he was in the car. However, as soon as the car started and his excited and happy heart cooled down, he felt a little strange. Such a small matter as arranging people to enter the hospital required a personal meeting with him as the president of Hengshi Group to decide?
But the opportunity to meet the person in power in the world is rare.
Although Fang Guohong was suspicious, he could not resist the temptation. He had not believed when he heard people say that Fang Shimian was close to the Huo family, but now it was almost certain...
In this case, Fang Shimian should still be kept in his hands so that he can do things for him in the future.
Fang Guohong felt a little uneasy when the car drove into Anhe Hospital. Who would come to the hospital to discuss things? Could it be... Could it be that Fang Shimian was really beaten up and something bad happened?
But it shouldn't be the case. The child is very strong and can take a beating. It's impossible for him to be more fragile than when he was a child when he grows up.
When Fang Guohong was semi-forcibly taken to the door of the emergency room by the bodyguards, his expression was very complicated.
Because there were not only Huo's family members at the door of the emergency room, but also his ex-wife who he hadn't seen for a long time.
Huo Zhongshan looked at Fang Guohong who was brought to him by the bodyguards, looking down at him with a cold tone, "I don't know who beat Shi Mian after get off work. He is seriously injured now. We plan to call the police. What do you think?"
Although the tone was not harsh, Fang Guohong felt a chill.
He was panicking, and only then did he start to regret that he had no sense of proportion in his attack, which had even reached the point where he needed to be rescued. He didn't show it on his face, and just said, "There's no need to call the police... He came to see me today, and we had a disagreement and had a few words, and I didn't do anything. He got scared and fell down, but he didn't cry out in pain at the time. I didn't expect it to be so serious. It was my negligence."
"Oh? Really?" Huo Zhongshan's face was expressionless, and he couldn't tell if he was happy or angry. He asked calmly, "Shi Mian has always been a good person. What caused the quarrel?"
Fang Guohong's eyes suddenly lit up when he talked about this. This was a good opportunity. His son was unwilling to speak, so if he took this opportunity to speak, wouldn't he be able to get the job done?
"Come to think of it," Fang Guohong smiled with an embarrassed look, "it's just a small matter. My wife's younger brother graduated from graduate school. The current environment is not good and it is difficult for him to find a job. He has always wanted to work in Anhe..."
It's a small matter indeed.
Huo Zhongshan felt a sharp pain in his heart. He didn't expect that it was actually related to him. It went without saying that Fang Shimen must have refused, otherwise it would never have come to this.
Such a small thing almost cost the child his life.
He took a deep breath, and tried his best to suppress the violent emotions growing wildly in his heart. He looked at Fang Guohong who was observing his expression, and asked, "And then?"
So Fang Guohong could only bite the bullet and continue, "I also... I also heard that Shi Mian knows you, Mr. Huo. I thought this would be a good thing, right? Why bother with the outsiders, so many tests and interviews? That kid is down-to-earth, knows how to behave, and is good at studying. It's safer to have him as your own, right? Let's have dinner together tomorrow, and you'll know when you see him. You'll definitely like him."
He is willing to beat his own flesh and blood, but praises all unrelated relatives.
Huo Jun sneered after hearing this, undercurrents surged in his eyes, and he cursed in a low voice with disdain.
"Who told you?" Huo Zhongshan said lightly.
Fang Guohong was stunned. "What?"
"I'm telling you," Huo Zhongshan stared at him expressionlessly, emphasizing each word, "Who told you that Fang Shimian and I knew each other?"
Fang Guohong didn't think there was anything worth talking about. He said nonchalantly, "Zhu Ze, you must know him. Aren't your two families very close? That child is quite successful now. He has started his own company. When he lived next door to us, I said that this child would be a great success when he grows up..."
Zhu Ze is a villain.
"Are you worthy of being a father?" Huo Jun couldn't hold back any longer. "Are you still a human being? Calling you a beast is a compliment... Forget it. I find it disgusting to talk to a thing like you."
Fang Guohong was so frightened by such crude and straightforward insults that he didn't react for a long time. He wanted to curse back but was concerned that he was a member of the Huo family, so he turned his attention to Huo Zhongshan.
Huo Zhongshan remained calm and looked at him calmly, as if he didn't notice Huo Jun's impoliteness at all.
It is obvious that they want to protect their own family.
Fang Guohong had no choice but to force a smile, "Shi Mian really fell by himself. He is in there for treatment now. I must be heartbroken too."
"Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to talk to me?" Huo Jun sneered with disdain.
If it weren't for Fang Shimian, people like him wouldn't even be able to get through the door of his company if they wanted to see him.
Fang Guohong explained in a low voice with a pale face.
Huo Jun, however, could not listen any further. He turned around and sat down at a place far away, staring at the sign that said "operation is in progress" in a daze.
After saying these words, Huo Zhongshan nodded to Zhang Chan, who had been patient for a long time, and took a step back to politely make room.
Fang Guohong noticed Zhang Chan only then, and a hint of guilt flashed across his eyes.
Zhang Chan strode up to Fang Guohong and slapped him twice, knocking him unconscious. He had never been slapped in public since he was a child, so this was the most humiliating moment in his life. He glanced at Huo Zhongshan awkwardly, and when he saw that the man didn't seem to be looking in his direction, he cursed in a low voice, "Are you crazy?"
"You're crazy!" Zhang Chan gnashed her teeth, shaking with anger. "You sent my son to the hospital for emergency treatment just for San'er. You didn't want me to go to work before, which drove me crazy. Now you've cut off ties with Shi Mian, and you still ask him to do things for you! Fang Guohong, how can you be so disgusting and mean!"
Zhang Chan has now gotten rid of that dark past and has a healthy life, work and relationship.
She really didn't want Fang Shimian and his ex-husband to disturb her new life, but she also couldn't bear to see that beast Fang Guohong harm her child like this because of those shameful things.
Fang Guohong's face instantly turned the color of liver. He was so angry that he couldn't speak. The filth in his heart was exposed. When had he ever been insulted like this before? But at this moment, he felt guilty and was not in the right. He could only say hatefully: "Did you hit him enough? Huh?"
"Why did I do that? Don't you know it clearly? You made me lose my job and I can only rely on you to make a living. You let those people throw dirty water on me and make me afraid to go out to see people. Every day I say that I am not smart and I embarrass you. What can I do? If you don't fool around outside, will I go crazy? The woman next door mocks me every day. Have you ever said a word for me? Did I give birth to the child alone?" Zhang Chan was originally a very strong-willed person. The more she spoke, the more hateful she became. She suddenly pinched Fang Guohong's neck with both hands, "Old beast, kill you!"
Fang Guohong was pinched so hard that he saw stars. After pushing and shoving for a long time, he pushed Zhang Chan away and said, "Have you had enough of this, you lunatic?"
Zhang Chan was indeed ill again. She tremblingly grabbed a handful of medicine from her bag and stuffed it into her mouth.
She hated Fang Guohong so much that he ruined her first half of life. Her mind became confused. She got up and thought of the person in the emergency room who still had half of that beast's blood. She felt sick and wished that the father and son would die together. She hated everyone who disturbed her new life.
"Go to hell, all of you." Zhang Chan threw the medicine into her bag, gathered her hair, turned around and left. She had her own life and she would never be stuck in the mud again.
She doesn't want to be crazy all the time.
Fang Guohong's breathing was unstable at the moment. In his heart, he probably knew that the matter could not be accomplished, but he still put on a smile again, "Please forgive me, Mr. Huo, that woman is mentally ill. We have found out before. What she said was all crazy talk she imagined."
Huo Zhongshan watched the farce calmly, with an unfathomable deepness between his brows. He asked casually, "I heard that Dean Fang is still working at the university?"
The question without any emotion was filled with an overwhelming sense of oppression, and the man whose mood could not be seen gave off a frightening aura.
Fang Guohong didn't understand what he meant, but he felt inexplicably frightened.
