"Maybe you saw it wrong." Chen Shiming said, "There were so many people in the field at that time, and there were many with similar figures."
"Really?" Chen Qizhao lowered his head and said, his tone fluctuating slightly: "I just remembered it when I saw that person. I haven't offended anyone before."
As he spoke, he paid attention to Chen Shiming's expression, and only when the other party picked up the phone did he realize that Chen Shiming was suspicious.
If you tell him directly that this matter is related to Lin Shizhong, Chen Shiming will definitely not believe it, and may even suspect that he is suffering from a drug reaction. But if the matter is brought to other people in the field, then the significance will be different. In order to avoid exposing himself, Lin Shizhong and the two people competing with him did not choose to raise the price in the end. It is very likely that Lin Shizhong himself was not very sure about this matter or did not do enough preparation in advance, so he did not want the Chen family to notice the competitor.
Since Lin Shizhong didn't want anyone to know, he had to let people know, and he had to make Chen Shiming notice it.
Before the person who drugged the patient comes out, any suspect will alert the Chen family, not to mention what the victim said. Therefore, Chen Shiming may not check the "similar-looking" assistant Lin Shizhong, but he will definitely check the two people who compete with him.
There is no point in saying too much about some things...
The best way is to let the Chen family realize the problem themselves.
"I will also investigate the person who drugged you. You should have a good rest these few days." After Chen Shiming finished speaking, the doctors and nurses came in to check on Chen Qizhao's condition. He stepped back a few steps to make room for the doctors and nurses, and walked to the door to call Special Assistant Xu.
Chen Shiming asked the other party to check the people at the auction. He caught a glimpse of the pale boy on the hospital bed and realized Chen Qizhao's behavior after Lin Shibo came in. Unlike his usual sharp-tongued and trouble-making performance, he seemed absent-minded and evasive.
To be honest, he had imagined Chen Qizhao being furious and complaining to him after waking up, but he had never imagined that Chen Qizhao would be so quiet.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look serious, and changed his words: "First check the people at the auction, especially the two guests who are competing with him, check the relationship behind them, and check all the people who have conflicts and competitions with Chen on the project recently."
He then said, "Don't tell anyone."
Assistant Xu paused after hearing this: "Okay, I'll do it right away."
Anyone who dares to take action in a situation like this either has a grudge against the Chen family and is deliberately looking for trouble at this time, or has a personal grudge against Chen Qizhao. Chen Shiming knew his brother's temper. He might have made a fuss, but he wouldn't go to the extent of being drugged because of personal grudges.
If Shen Yuhuai had not sent Chen Qizhao to the lounge in advance this time, Chen Qizhao, who had drunk the medicated champagne, would most likely have made a fool of himself at the party, and it would have been the Chen family that would have lost face. Moreover, Chen Qizhao would not usually attend such gatherings, and no one knew about it before he came today, so the possibility of targeting the Chen family is higher.
Zhang Yazhi also came to see the situation.
After the doctor checked and said there was no major problem, Zhang Yazhi was relieved. She said, "Be careful with the wine in the future. If it doesn't work, find an assistant to accompany you. Don't let the wine glass pass through other people's hands."
Chen Qizhao didn't want her to worry too much: "It's nothing serious, just drank something wrong."
Drugging is a small matter. He encountered more traps in his previous life, and drugged countless times in various occasions... He was tricked this time because of his negligence. He clearly noticed it but let his guard down. But it was also a coincidence. In a sense, at least Lin Shizhong's suspicion of him has been reduced.
"How come you're alright?" Zhang Yazhi said, "Your brother said you were talking nonsense on the way to the hospital."
Chen Qizhao was stunned: "Me?"
"It's you." Chen Shiming glanced at him and said, "You were talking nonsense to Yu Huai. I don't know what you were talking about. You were mumbling something and you even pulled at his clothes when you got off the car."
Chen Qizhao: “…”
He looked at Chen Shiming and said in surprise: "I think it was me who took the wrong medicine, not you."
Chen Shiming asked: "What do you mean?"
"No, I just feel like your ability to make up stories is like you've taken the wrong medicine." Chen Qizhao didn't remember ever talking nonsense, at most he just misunderstood something.
Chen Shiming: "...I really should have recorded your performance last night."
Zhang Yazhi watched the two brothers quarreling without stopping them. She felt relieved when she saw Chen Qizhao was in high spirits talking to others, so she picked up a fruit knife and started peeling an apple.
Chen Shiming had something else to do at the company. When he saw Zhang Yazhi coming to take care of her, he said a few words and left quickly.
"But this time, thanks to Yu Huai's help, it was him and your brother who sent you to the hospital, and he also helped to get the report." Zhang Yazhi said while peeling the fruit: "He was the first one to notice the problem. If he hadn't reminded us, the first scene at that time might not have been saved."
The most important thing is the glass of something Chen Qizhao drank. It is said that the problematic waiter wanted to remove the wine and destroy the evidence, but he didn't find a chance to act. Finally, when the accident happened, Shen Yuhuai reminded him that it might be due to alcohol intake. Only with Shen Yuhuai's reminder did he find the wine glass somewhere else.
Because Chen Qizhao replaced the champagne with orange juice halfway through.
Chen Qizhao remembered something, he remembered that it was Shen Yuhuai who sent him to the lounge, “I know.”
"But Yu Huai hasn't changed much since he was a child. I still remember that he was only that old when he and Xue Lan came to our house." Zhang Yazhi spoke softly, thinking as she spoke: "How old was he then...? Junior high school, right? I think it was when you were in the second grade."
"He is four years older than me." Chen Qizhao closed his eyes to rest. He still had a headache after taking the medicine. "I was in the second grade, so he should be in the sixth grade, in elementary school."
It is also possible to skip a grade. After all, with Shen Yuhuai's IQ, in elementary school... He suddenly realized something after he finished speaking, and suddenly opened his eyes: "Wait, he has been to our house?"
"I have been there." Zhang Yazhi smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? When you were a child, you often asked him to play with you, and you even insisted on not wanting your elder brother. You wanted to go to the Shen family and be their child, and you insisted on Shen Yuhuai being your real brother."
Chen Qizhao had no recollection of it. "When did it happen? Why don't I have any recollection of it?"
He only remembered that when Chen Shiming was in high school, Shen Xuelan did come home occasionally, but Shen Yuhuai was not there at that time.
"It's normal for you to forget such a small thing." Zhang Yazhi recalled carefully: "There was a period of time. At that time, the Shen family had some problems. At that time, Xuelan and Yu Huai would come to our house after school, and usually stayed until the evening. At that time, your brother didn't like to play with you. Often when he and Xuelan were doing homework in the room, Yu Huai would play with you. Later, he didn't come much because your uncle Shen sent him to study abroad for a period of time because of academic matters."
Chen Qizhao recalled the look in Shen Yuhuai's eyes when he saw him in this life. He thought it was because of Yan Kailin at the time. Now thinking back, the other party had remembered him a long time ago. He was nice to him and had dinner with him probably because of their childhood friendship. He treated him like a younger brother... But he had never heard Shen Yuhuai talk about this childhood incident in his previous life. He even thought that the meeting between the two of them under the Chen Building was the real acquaintance.
Zhang Yazhi: "Yu Huai probably still remembers it. When I was chatting with him yesterday, he said he didn't remember you having a history of heart disease when you were a child."
Chen Qizhao half lowered his head and said, "I'm not sick."
Zhang Yazhi: "Maybe your brother was wrong. Yu Huai thought you had a heart disease. I explained it to him."
While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.
Zhang Yazhi responded and came in, and soon she saw Shen Yuhuai coming in with a bouquet of flowers.
Seeing someone coming, Zhang Yazhi smiled and said, "Yu Huai is here? I just mentioned you to Xiao Zhao."
"Aunt Zhang." Shen Yuhuai nodded politely, his eyes stopped on Chen Qizhao: "Is Qizhao feeling better today?"
"Brother Huai." Chen Qizhao sat up a little straighter, "Thank you for your help yesterday."
Zhang Yazhi took the flowers from Shen Yuhuai and just said a few words to someone when the bell in the ward rang, and the doctor reminded her to go to the clinic to get the test report.
"You go over there, I'll watch here for a while." Shen Yuhuai said.
"Then please help me." Zhang Yazhi said to Chen Qizhao, "Remember to tell me if you feel uncomfortable."
As soon as Zhang Yazhi left, only Chen Qizhao and Shen Yuhuai were left in the ward.
As soon as the surroundings became quiet, Chen Qizhao inexplicably thought of what Chen Shiming had just said. He was sure that he had no memory of talking nonsense, but he was not sure whether he had said it or not, especially the words of Chen Shiming pulling Shen Yuhuai's clothes, which made him inexplicably embarrassed. He carefully searched his memory of yesterday. He still had some impression of when he first arrived at the lounge, but he had no memory of what happened afterwards, not to mention what he had said.
Shen Yuhuai caught a glimpse of the apple that had just been peeled on the cabinet beside the bed, as well as the fruit knife and disposable gloves placed beside it. He noticed Chen Qizhao's silence and asked, "Would you like some fruit?"
Chen Qizhao paused for two seconds and replied, "Eat."
The ward was very well equipped. When she heard that he would only be hospitalized for two days, Zhang Yazhi almost moved all her belongings from home.
Shen Yuhuai sat down in Zhang Yazhi's original position, wearing gloves and holding the knife skillfully. The fruit knife in his hand seemed to have turned into some kind of delicate tool in the laboratory. Compared with Zhang Yazhi's rough way of peeling, Shen Yuhuai held the knife very steadily, peeling along the original blade. After a while, he peeled a long strip of peel, which formed a sharp contrast with the scattered peels on the tray.
Chen Qizhao just watched quietly, without finding topics to talk to Shen Yuhuai as he did in the past. Inexplicably, his mood gradually calmed down, and his mind couldn't help but recall the past.
He looked at Shen Yuhuai now, and remembered the first time he went to Shen Yuhuai’s apartment. He stayed in the utility room for a long time that day, and only followed Shen Yuhuai out of the Chen Building when the noise outside disappeared. At that time, he was in a very bad state, with a lot of sticky things splashed on his suit, but Shen Yuhuai still took him to an apartment in the city center and provided him with clothes to change.
Shen Yuhuai was like this at the time, he didn't say too much, didn't ask too many questions, but always inadvertently gave him the most comfortable environment.
Later, he learned that Shen Yuhuai was entrusted by Uncle Shen to help that day, and he also brought with him some funds that Uncle Shen had provided as support at the time, so he ran into the scene under the Chen building... The Shen family also lent him a helping hand under such circumstances. Later, as problems gradually arose in other parts of the Chen company, when he realized the problems, he found out that Lin Shizhong was deliberately trying to bring him down. On the surface, he was nice to him and helped him, but secretly the media without prior notice, the employees who made trouble, and the bodyguards who did nothing were all acting at Lin Shizhong's instruction.
If it weren't for Shen Yuhuai, he would have collapsed long ago.
Shen Yuhuai had just finished peeling the apple and was about to hand it to Chen Qizhao when he suddenly noticed that the other party's left hand was hanging with water and the oxygen tube on the side of his nose looked inconvenient to move. Chen Qizhao looked pale and not in a very good mental state, with his brows slightly wrinkled, as if in pain.
But the other party didn't say anything and remained quiet, completely different from the boy who was high-spirited and holding up a placard to bid at the charity auction last night.
Before coming here, he consulted classmates in related majors. Psychotropic drugs have many side effects, and even a slight intake may cause headaches for one or two weeks.
Chen Qizhao adjusted his posture and just sat up, and glanced sideways to see Shen Yuhuai's actions.
"I can't find a fork." Shen Yuhuai skillfully sliced the apple with a knife and handed the sliced apple to Chen Qizhao.
Chen Qizhao was slightly startled and didn't reach out to take it for a moment.
Shen Yuhuai noticed his hesitation, paused for half a second, and reached out to hold the apple to his mouth.
