Chapter 310 Chi Heng remains unconscious
The next second, before the man could speak...
Chi Heng had already taken off his shirt.
He turned his back, a faint hint of mockery playing at the corners of his lips.
The man didn't say much, but he gestured behind him.
One of them immediately stepped forward and handed him a whip that was soaked in salt water.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
After a few more lashes, Chi Heng's back, already covered in crisscrossing welts, was covered in even more bloody wounds.
"Madam asked me to pass on a message to you: Young Master, you are now an adult. You should know what you should and shouldn't do, and don't forget your place!"
After a pause, the man spoke threateningly, "If there's a next time, it's hard to say who will get those lashes..."
The words fell.
Chi Heng slowly turned around, staring directly at the man in front of him. "Get lost!"
"Yes, young master." The man nodded slightly, glanced at the old man guarding the door before leaving, and then led everyone out of the door.
As soon as they left, Chi Heng's once upright back bent instantly.
"Young Master! Why are you doing this to yourself?"
Before the words were even finished, the old man was already sobbing uncontrollably.
"Madam, she's too cruel. You are, after all, his..."
“Uncle Da.” Chi Heng shook his head at him.
"Okay, okay... I won't say it, I won't say it..."
Uncle Da understood what he meant. He wiped away his tears and quickly took out hemostatic powder and bandages from the medicine box.
"Young master, bear with the pain, I'll apply medicine and bandage it for you right away."
"Uncle Da, it's alright, I'm not in pain anymore."
Chi Heng gently comforted her, "She's not in the country, so those people were hesitant and only used about 70 or 80 percent of their strength when they attacked her."
Compared to the past, this is already considered mild.
"How could it not hurt!" Uncle Da's tears fell again, heartbroken.
The whip was specially made, with barbs and soaked in salt water.
One lash, and even the hardest bone can't withstand it.
As he spoke, Uncle Da glanced at Chi Heng's back again, where new wounds overlapped with old ones, the wounds so gruesome that it was almost unbearable to look at them.
He could only be extremely careful until he had finished bandaging Chi Heng's wounds.
Uncle Da couldn't help but whisper another word of advice, "Young Master, listen to my advice, stop arguing with Madam!"
Actually, when his wife asked him to return to China...
He had advised the young master.
But the young master wouldn't listen; he stubbornly insisted on coming back.
They even bought the house without permission and actively contacted the Jiang family.
That's what led to this physical punishment.
Chi Heng didn't speak, his gaze fixed on the half-open drawer.
Even without seeing the contents of the drawer with his own eyes, Uncle Da knew what was inside.
"Young Master..." Uncle Da wanted to persuade him again.
"Uncle Da, stop talking." Chi Heng closed the drawer.
He knew what Uncle Da was going to say, but at that moment he couldn't hear anything.
After a moment of silence, he spoke again, "Have you prepared everything I asked you to?"
"Ready." As he said this, Uncle Da glanced warily at the door.
Once he was sure those people were gone, he quietly opened the hidden compartment of the medicine box and took out two identical safety buckles.
Chi Heng was raised by Uncle Da from a young age, and Uncle Da knew exactly what his every move meant.
"Young Master, I'd better find a way to send this over to you, otherwise Madam will find out..."
Chi Heng shook his head. "No need."
Seeing that Uncle Da wanted to say something, he unusually offered an explanation.
"Uncle Da, this is my own decision, and it has nothing to do with her."
He admitted that he did indeed have unusual feelings for her.
But returning to China was just to find out if she had been doing well all these years.
Is it true, as those people say, that she is currently in dire straits?
Therefore, he knew perfectly well that doing so would displease his mother.
But he did it anyway.
"Uncle Da." As if remembering something, a faint smile appeared on Chi Heng's lips.
"Her personality is still the same as when she was a child—simple and straightforward, she doesn't like beating around the bush, and she's very happy now."
That's enough.
When he brought up the Jiang family member, Uncle Da couldn't help but sigh.
He's old and can't keep up with the ideas of young people.
But he knew that the young master liked her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have made a special trip back to China just to make sure she was alright.
He just didn't understand, if he liked it so much, why...
“Young Master,” Uncle Da looked at him, “Didn’t Madam say that as long as things go smoothly, she would agree to anything you want…”
"She agreed?" Chi Heng chuckled self-deprecatingly upon hearing this. "She's always like this, deciding other people's lives based on her own preferences."
They've been controlling him for over twenty years, and it's still not enough!
Now they want to control other people's lives.
What makes her so special?
“But, young master…” Uncle Da looked puzzled, “haven’t you always liked Miss Jiang?”
Chi Heng has never denied liking her.
However, being in the complex and dangerous vortex of the Qin family, he himself did not have the ability to protect himself.
What right or face does he have to drag her into this mess?
Moreover, his liking for her was always one-sided from beginning to end.
There was not a trace of romantic love in her eyes when she looked at him.
Chi Heng understood this very well.
Uncle Da didn't say anything after hearing this, he just looked at him with heartache.
After an unknown amount of time, Chi Heng suddenly spoke, "Uncle Da, I'm tired."
"Alright, alright, then young master, you should rest now." Uncle Da quickly stepped forward to help him up.
Before leaving, he reminded him again, "Young Master, please be careful when you go to sleep later, and don't touch the wound."
"I'm right next door, remember to call me if you need anything!"
Chi Heng nodded. "Okay."
That being said, Uncle Keda was still uneasy.
Ever since the master left, the madam has become a completely different person.
If the young master does anything that displeases her, he will be physically punished or locked up.
Under this long-term control and mental torture, the young master's health has deteriorated.
Worried that something might be wrong with his health, Uncle Da stayed outside the door the whole time.
Two or three hours later, Uncle Da quietly pushed open the door.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the wound on his back had reopened at some point.
The bed was soaked.
"Young Master? Young Master!"
Seeing that Chi Heng was unconscious, Uncle Da didn't care about anything else and quickly went to the other rooms to wake everyone up.
"What's wrong with the young master?" Hearing the commotion, the middle-aged man from before also came out of the room.
On the surface, he was the lady's confidant.
Responsible for protecting and supervising the young master.
Uncle Ke knew perfectly well that this man had probably been having an affair with the lady for a long time!
Otherwise, he wouldn't target the young master every time.
Thinking about all this, Uncle Da's tone became noticeably harsher, "What do you mean! The young master's health has always been poor, and you still treated him so cruelly!"
"If anything happens to him, how will you explain it to Madam when you get back!"
As they were talking, the others also came out.
What are you all standing there for?
Uncle Da was both angry and anxious. "Young Master's fever won't go down. Get him to the hospital right away, or it will be too late!"
"This..." The group exchanged glances, then turned their attention back to the man.
The man was still hesitating.
But looking at Chi Heng's complexion, he still seemed to be in good condition.
They had no choice but to agree.
The group then carried Chi Heng on their backs and rushed him to a nearby hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor who examined Chi Heng's wounds gasped in shock upon seeing the wounds on his back.
This...this isn't an accident, this is clearly abuse!
Upon closer inspection, the men who brought him over were all burly and didn't look like good people at first glance.
Upon seeing this, the doctor immediately gave the nurse on duty a look.
The nurse was quite clever.
While the others weren't paying attention, they quickly called over the hospital's security personnel.
Upon seeing the wounds on Chi Heng's body, the security personnel immediately took control of the group without saying a word.
Upon seeing this, the man quickly took out two packs of cigarettes.
"What are you doing? What are you doing?"
The security guard, with a righteous and stern expression, pushed away what he was offered.
"Are you trying to corrupt our revolutionary ranks with sugar-coated bullets?"
"No, no, I didn't mean that," the man explained.
However, the security personnel wouldn't listen to a word. "Don't give me that! I'm asking you, who inflicted these wounds on his back?"
"this……"
The people present exchanged glances, none of them daring to admit it.
Seeing that they couldn't come up with a coherent explanation after a long time, the security personnel got tired of arguing with them and simply took the group to the nearby police station.
As for Uncle Da, he was kept on the doctor's advice.
After all, the patient's condition is serious, and someone needs to be with them for the time being.
After the group left, the doctor re-bandaged Chi Heng's wound, put him on an IV drip for fever reduction and anti-inflammation, and then left the ward.
The moment the door closed.
Chi Heng suddenly opened his eyes.
Uncle Da's eyes were swollen like peaches from crying. He was both surprised and delighted to see his young master wake up.
However, before he could even speak...
A knock suddenly sounded on the door—
