Because the school was still closed, Chen 꼎 couldn't leave directly from the school gate.

It is impossible to ask for leave at this time.

That leaves only one solution.

Chen 꼎 sneaked out of the apartment, then walked across the stadium and went around the iron fence near the back gate of the school.

After confirming that there were no surveillance cameras or security guards passing by on either side, Chen 꼎 took a deep breath and quietly approached.

When he was almost there, he accelerated and ran up the railing. In a second, Chen 꼎 had landed on the road outside the school.

After looking around vigilantly to make sure no one was paying attention to him, Chen quickly walked to the side of the road and stretched out his hand to hail a taxi.

"Go to the People's Hospital."

Rushing all the way to the hospital, Chen Ru threw a hundred yuan to the driver and quickly opened the door and got out of the car.

Keep the change, please.

As soon as I rushed into the clinic lobby, I ran into Feng Pojun.

"Why are you here? What's wrong?"

Feng Pojun explained: "The surgery is over. The doctor said that Mr. Ding had good luck and no vital parts were injured."

"I'm here to help Manager Ding with his hospital stay."

Chen 꼎 quickly asked, "How are the injuries?"

"I have some superficial injuries, but they are not serious. As for the knife wound, the doctor said I need to rest for a while."

After hearing this, Chen 꼎 heaved a sigh of relief.

"You continue to arrange for hospitalization. Which floor is he on? I'll go up by myself.

All the way to the inpatient department, in the corridor, four club security guards were guarding here.

Seeing Chen, the four of them stood up straight immediately. Just as they were about to call the boss, they were interrupted by Chen.

Standing at the door of the ward, Chen 꼎 glanced inside.

On the hospital bed, there was a bandage around the shoulder where he had just undergone surgery. He was having difficulty turning over and was about to reach for the bottle of water on the table.

Seeing this, Chen 꼎 quickly opened the door and walked in.

"I'll do it, I'll do it..."

"What brings you here?"

Dingdian looked surprised. "Isn't the school closed? How did you get out?"

Chen smiled and reached out to pick up the water cup on the bed.

"You want to drink some water? But... you can't drink water after having surgery, right?"

Dingdian glanced at Chen Xiao and said, "My injury is my shoulder, not my stomach. Why can't I drink water?"

Chen 輎 laughed, unscrewed the bottle cap and passed it over.

Dingdian didn't answer, but stared at Chen 꼎 and asked.

"Did Lao Feng inform you?"

"You haven't answered my question yet, how did you get out?"

Chen 꼎 smiled. "That's not a good answer. I can just think of it and come up with it."

Dingdian frowned: "Did you sneak out? You shouldn't have come."

"Old Feng is really a big mouth."

Chen 꼎 smiled and sat on the bed opposite.

"How can I not come?"

Dingdian glanced at Chen 꼎, took the bottle, took two small sips and stopped drinking.

Chen 꼎 smiled and asked, "How is it? Does it still hurt now?"

"It's okay. The anesthetic effect hasn't completely worn off, but I can still feel a little pain."

In front of Chen 꼎, there is no need to pretend at all.

But he lowered his head and didn't dare to look Chen Rou in the eye.

"It's ugly, it's disfigured..."

Chen 꼎 smiled and consoled him, "It's okay. The wounds on your face are just superficial. They will heal after a while."

"You'll see it once you eliminate it."

A little depressed. As a woman, she can endure the pain, but cannot tolerate her appearance being destroyed.

This made her very anxious.

Chen continued to comfort her: "I have asked the doctor, it's just a minor problem. When the scabs on the wounds on my face disappear, new skin will grow and there will be no scars."

It seemed that he had finally found someone he trusted and could confide in; his tone became slightly more aggrieved.

"It's ugly. The new skin is not the same color as the surrounding skin."

Chen 꼎 didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Then get some more sun and tan your skin to a certain color."

"What a joke." Dingdian was speechless and glanced down at his shoulders covered with bandages.

"Even if the wound on my face can heal, the wound on my shoulder will definitely leave an ugly scar after the stitches are removed."

"What should I do? I can't wear suspenders and V-neck clothes in the summer anymore."

Chen 꼎 glanced at the other person's chest and spoke consciously.

"Then don't wear it. Anyway...it won't make much difference whether you wear it or not."

Dingdian: "..."

Realizing that he had said something wrong, Chen 꼎 decisively changed the subject.

"Um...what's going on? Lao Feng didn't explain it clearly on the phone."

Dingdian did not answer the question, but whispered: "I... want to go to the bathroom."

"ah?"

Chen stood up quickly.

"I'll call the nurse."

Dingdian stopped Chen 꼎, "I'm not going to the bathroom, I just want to see what I look like now."

"Oh, so..." Chen Rou came over, "Um... can you get out of bed now?"

Dingdian shook his head and said, "The anesthetic hasn't worn off yet..."

"Then...how about I hold you?"

Seeing that Dingdian had no objection, Chen Xiao bent down, gently took Dingdian's arm and put it around Xiao's neck, and carefully lifted the person out from the bed.

Taking a moment to go to the bathroom, the woman checked her face in front of the mirror again and again.

Seeing that she cared so much, Chen 꼎 spoke up.

"Don't worry. I'm sure everything will be fine."

"Let's take a step back and say that if there are scars left, with the advanced technology nowadays, it can be surgically removed."

Dingdian curled his lips and said, "Doesn't this technique cost money?"

Chen 꼎 immediately said: "This is a work-related injury. The company will reimburse you."

Dingdian turned his head and glanced at Chen 꼎: "That's a reasonable thing to say."

"Please take me back."

So Chen Xiao took Dingdian and returned to the bed from the bathroom.

"Okay, now we can talk about this."

Dingdian was expressionless. "Actually, I don't know what's going on."

When she was leaving the club after work in the evening and was about to take a car home, two young boys suddenly appeared on the side of the road.

The two men threatened Dingdian to hand over all the valuables on him, but Dingdian refused, and a dispute broke out between the two sides.

Finally, the two little boys got so angry that they stabbed Dingdian with a knife, then started punching and kicking him, and even snatched Dongdong away.

After listening to this, Chen 꼎 asked, "Are you sure you don't know those two people?"

Dingdian shook his head: "Never seen it before."

"Do you think this was a deliberate attack or an accident?"

Dingdian was silent for two seconds and shook his head.

"I can't explain it clearly."

Chen sighed, "Okay, don't worry about it. Take good care of yourself. Leave the rest to me."

"But you really are such a fool. In that situation, you could have just given the money to the other party. Do you value money over your life?"

Dingdian lowered his head, staring blankly at the bed sheet covering his body.

"That was your birthday present for me, and I don't want them to take it away..."

Chen 꼎's expression froze for a moment.

After two seconds, he smiled bitterly with a hint of helplessness.

"Which is more important, life or love? If you like love so much, I can give you another one when you are discharged from the hospital."

Ding Dian shook his head, "No need."

"Boss, I need a leave."

"No problem. I'll give you a paid vacation. Take this opportunity to rest and recuperate."

"Thank you for your hard work during this period."

"You work so late every day, why don't you drive home alone? It's not like the company doesn't have a car."

"If it really doesn't work, you can ask the company's security to drive you back..."

Dingdian stared at Chen 꼎 helplessly: "Why are you more nagging than my mother?"

Chen said very seriously: "I was negligent in this matter. As a boss, I want to apologize to you."

"How about this, when you are discharged from the hospital, the club will reward you with a car to recognize your hard work during this period."

"Be safer when driving during work in the future."

Dingdian suddenly felt happy.

"You said it, so keep your word."

Chen 꼎 smiled, "I always keep my word and never go back on my word."

Dingdian curled his lips and said, "Let's make it clear in advance. I don't want a second-hand car worth tens of thousands of dollars."

Chen 꼎 said with a smile: "Don't worry. You can pick any car within 500,000 yuan."

"Really?" He sat up with some excitement.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Grandet to be so generous."

"It seems that my injury was not in vain this time..."

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the ward door, and then Feng Pojun pushed the door open, revealing his upper body.

"Boss, Director Pang is here."
