The short and fat man finally understood his situation and kowtowed for mercy with tears and snot. Another subordinate simply took off his smelly socks, stuffed them into the short and fat man's mouth, and dragged him away despite his resistance.
Li Yang felt sad and didn't look at the short and fat man again. She snuggled into Ji Huaizhi's chest obediently.
Ji Huaizhi like this was so terrifying that he made her feel unfamiliar.
But she knew that he did this for her.
Perhaps this is his world, a world she has never touched.

Ji Huaizhi took Li Yang to the nearest local hospital for a physical examination and to bandage his wounds.
When the emergency doctor asked if a gynecologist should be called for consultation, Ji Huaizhi shook his head without hesitation: "As long as she is safe and sound."
The female doctor who saw Li Yang's condition thought he was being abused.
Li Yang quickly explained, "I accidentally rolled down the hillside."
The female doctor looked at Li Yang's abdomen and back, which were obviously bruised from being kicked, and was furious at his lack of resistance: "You've been beaten like this, and you're still speaking for him.
You have to understand that there are only zero and countless domestic violence. If he dares to hit you this time, he will dare to hit you again in the future!"
Li Yang, fearing that the female doctor would really cause trouble for Ji Huaizhi, had red eyes. "Doctor, I understand. Thank you, but he really didn't hit me."
The female doctor thought Li Yang was just a weak woman who had been beaten by her husband. She said, "I'll give you a report on your injuries. Keep it. It might be useful in the future."
Seeing that the doctor no longer continued the topic of domestic violence, Li Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The female doctor treated a few of Li Yang's deeper wounds and instructed, "As for some minor abrasions, go back and apply the ointment yourself according to the prescription. Remember not to get it wet. Start applying the ointment from the moment the scars form. This will effectively prevent scarring."
Fortunately, the injuries to your abdomen and back did not damage your internal organs, otherwise you would be bleeding internally now.
The most serious problem is your coccyx, which has a slight fracture. I suggest you stay in bed for a week, or you'll limp when you walk."
The female doctor had a serious expression on her face. Li Yang was stunned and agreed repeatedly.
The female doctor noticed that although Li Yang's clothes were torn, they were all scratches, not the appearance of someone being assaulted. She hesitated to speak, saying, "If you need any help, please don't be afraid."
After saying that, he went out again to tell Ji Huaizhi the doctor's instructions, prescribed some medicine, and let the two leave.
As soon as they walked out of the clinic, Ji Huaizhi picked up Li Yang again. Li Yang remembered the doctor's instructions and did not refuse.
Ji Huaizhi called a car and stopped in front of a hotel.
On the way, Ji Huaizhi told her that she was kidnapped by Xiao Haisheng and brought to Shenzhen, and the reason why he was able to find her so quickly was thanks to Yao Yunxiang who discovered her missing early in the morning and asked someone to tell him.
Thinking of the thrilling journey, Li Yang is still in shock. Coupled with the fright, he feels a little listless.
Ji Huaizhi booked a single room, carried her to the bed, and propped up her back with a pillow. Then he took out the medicine prescribed by the doctor, carefully compared it with the prescription, and applied the medicine to Li Yang.
It mainly uses some clean and disinfectant hydrogen peroxide and iodine. After wetting a cotton swab, apply it carefully on the wound.
When applying the medicine on the wound on his face, the two of them were close enough that they could clearly see Ji Huaizhi's eyelashes.
This was the first time Li Yang saw Ji Huaizhi up close.
The long, clear eyebrows, the straight nose, the peach blossom eyes that seemed affectionate but were actually ruthless, and the thin pink lips, which were slightly pouting, blowing air on her wound...
Somehow, Li Yang couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
As luck would have it, Ji Huaizhi just happened to look up at her, and Li Yang was caught off guard and met his eyes.
Li Yang: “…”
She turned her head and her tone became unnatural: "I... I can do it myself."
Thinking that Li Yang still had a wound on his back that needed to be treated, Ji Huaizhi didn't force it anymore and said, "I'll ask the waiter to come and help you wipe it off, and bring you a change of clothes."
He stood up and said, "I'm right outside. Call me when you're ready. Don't be afraid."
Hearing this, Li Yang's eyes became slightly moist.
He understood her fragility and respected her pride and self-esteem.

When Ji Huaizhi came in again, the wound had been treated.
Before the waiter left, he kindly helped Li Yang to the bathroom. I guess this was Ji Huaizhi's instructions.
He helped Li Yang lie down and said, "You've worked hard these past two days. You should rest well. I'll be by your side."
Li Yang pulled the quilt upwards and said, "Don't you need to go take care of things?"
She remembered that the man named Xiao Haisheng was still in the warehouse.
Ji Huaizhi pulled out a chair, sat down beside the bed, and said, "It's okay, I'll accompany you first."
Li Yang wanted to be considerate and sensible, urging him to do his own thing and then saying that it was okay. But she was truly terrified. She was afraid that if she fell asleep, someone would break in and kidnap her again. And if she closed her eyes, the short, fat man would lean in close to her. This was the first time since her rebirth that she felt so vulnerable.
She nodded, and for the first time, she gave in to her own selfish desires: "Okay."
As Li Yang's breathing became long and steady, Ji Huaizhi withdrew his gaze from the window.
He lowered his eyes and looked at Li Yang lying on the bed. She was curled up in the white sheets, with scars on her face, which became more obvious after the medicine was applied. She looked petite and fragile.
Ji Huaizhi stretched out his hand, but stopped just before it touched her cheek. His slender fingers brushed away the messy long hair on her forehead, then retracted it.
In the hospital, the doctor's words dispelled his guilt and weakened his urge to cut Xiao Haisheng into pieces. At that moment, he thought that he was lucky to have her safely by his side.
But the rose he had carefully nurtured shouldn't be treated like this.
Thinking of this, Ji Huaizhi's eyes turned cold and he stood up and left the room.
