Jing Rong received a call from his father when he got off work at noon.
He pinched his brows, looked intently for a few seconds, and then hesitantly pressed the green button to connect.
Jing's father on the other end of the phone obviously didn't realize that he was not welcome. The moment the call was connected, he said directly: "Your brother has been found."
“……” Jing Rong has always remained silent regarding the word “brother”.
"He was the protagonist of the Suixian explosion a few days ago."
Jing Rong frowned slightly.
Although it could be heard from Jing's father's tone that the other party seemed to be just calmly stating the facts, Jing Rong could still hear something else in this sentence.
Recalling the daily events, Jing Rong's hand holding the phone tightened unconsciously: "What do you mean?"
The tone of Jing's father on the other end of the phone did not change at all: "You will always be the only heir to the Jing family, you don't have to worry about anything."
Jing Rong was silent for a moment, then said, "You mean I was the one who caused Jing Cheng's trouble this time?"
...
...
There was no response from the other end of the line, but the call was not hung up either.
Obviously it is the default.
Who on earth is this old bastard?
Jing Rong laughed in anger: "Do you think I would find someone to kidnap him? Just that piece of trash?"
"He is your brother."
"My mother only gave birth to me. I don't have a brother."
"..." Father Jing was choked, but still said firmly: "I asked someone to transfer him to the Central Hospital. I don't care what you did before, you must go to see him today."
At this point, Father Jing softened his tone and said, "I know your brother was naughty before, but he has been taught a lesson and his brain has been injured, so he doesn't recognize anyone now. Don't bother with him."
“…”
Jing Rong hung up the phone.
This "little brother" of his who tests the edge of the law every day and even often crosses the line into evil deeds is just "naughty" in the eyes of his father?
Jing Rong had nothing to say about this kind of selectively turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to the evil parents.
The person on the other end seemed to be angry at his sudden hanging up and didn't call again.
When Jing Rong saw that it was almost time, he prepared to get off work.
He definitely had to go and see the person, if for no other reason than that he had a "broken brain and couldn't recognize people".
He wanted to see what his good "brother" would do this time.
…
Shangjing Central Hospital, VIP ward.
The room was spacious and bright. On the bedside table stood a beautiful vase filled with several gorgeous lilies. Not far from the bed was a simple bookshelf, on which lay a book called "Modern History", which had obvious signs of being flipped through.
A classic anti-Japanese war drama was playing on the large-screen LCD TV.
“Kill!!!”
“Thump, thump, thump, thump—”
…
"...I can't die like a coward like this. If I have to die, I'd rather die on the charge!"
"Keep attacking!"
The roars of the soldiers echoed in the ward, and the sad background music made the plot even more exciting.
Jing Cheng clenched his fists, stared with wide eyes, and watched without blinking.
This was the scene Jing Rong saw when he opened the door of the ward and came in.
The boy had a thick gauze wrapped around his head, with half of his short black hair hanging down, his fair and slender neck half covered. His face was as white as jade, his skin was almost transparent, his eyes were big, his pupils were clear, and his thin lips were tightly pursed, showing a sense of unwillingness to admit defeat.
He was wearing a pure white hospital gown. The loose gown made his face look even more delicate and small. His lower body was buried in the quilt, making him look pitiful.
Jing Rong was stunned for a moment. It seemed like it was the first time that he looked at his "little brother" seriously and was unexpectedly amazed.
But Jing Rong quickly reacted and frowned.
All that is gold and jade appears outside, but rotten cotton is inside.
Because of his practice of Taoism, Jing Cheng has always had sharp ears and eyes. Even though the volume from the TV in the room was deafening, he could still hear the almost imperceptible sound of the door opening.
Jing Cheng looked up at the person who came and was also stunned for a moment.
He was stunned not because this person looked somewhat similar to him, but because of some unusual sense of familiarity.
Jing Cheng searched his mind and made sure that he did not know this person. He thought about it and felt that this should be the family of the original "Jing Cheng".
During the days since he was transferred from Sui County Hospital to Shangjing Hospital, Jing Cheng has understood one thing: he seems to have come to an extraordinary era, and for some reason, he is now occupying the identity of "someone else".
Whether it was Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly or the butterfly dreaming of Zhuang Zhou, Jing Cheng did not dare to delve into it.
However, after he woke up in the hospital, he told himself that it was a "good situation", which was also... his only chance.
The original "Jing Cheng" was killed by the kidnappers, and because he was struck by lightning that night and turned into charcoal, he could not be identified from his original appearance. So Ling Su, who looked similar to him and had an ID card on her, was mistaken for "Jing Cheng" and was subsequently rushed to the hospital.
Everything seemed to have been planned in advance, and everything had its destiny.
It seemed that from the moment he acknowledged the identity of "Jing Cheng", he became the real Jing Cheng.
And this person... Jing Cheng looked at him in confusion.
"I heard that you have become mentally retarded?" the visitor asked coldly.
Jing Cheng's eyes widened.
Who is this? Why is he cursing?
This made Jing Cheng unable to help but look at the person who came carefully.
The man was about 25 or 26 years old, with a pair of narrow and sharp phoenix eyes, a forehead as high as a wall, shiny as a mirror, a high bridge of the nose, a full forehead, long eyebrows, and a very good and noble face. This kind of person can inherit the family business and carry it forward, and is a person who can call the wind and rain in his career.
The only flaw is that the sun and moon corners above his eyebrows are sunken, indicating a weak bond with his parents.
If he guessed correctly, this person should be his "big brother".
While Jing Cheng was looking at Jing Rong, the other party was also looking at him.
As we got closer, we could see that Jing Cheng was surprisingly good-looking. What was even more ridiculous was that his eyes were very clear and looked very clean.
Jing Rong had met his "younger brother" only a few times. The last time was when this kid was reported for gathering with a bunch of playboys in a bar to take drugs, and Jing's father asked him to clean up the mess.
At that time, "Jing Cheng" had dyed colorful hair, was skinny, had a sallow complexion, cloudy eyes, swear words, and looked gloomy and decadent, totally unlike a teenager in adolescence. He was completely different from the boy in front of him with a noble temperament and innocent eyes.
How could such a big change happen just from a kidnapping and brain injury?
It's like a completely different person.
The other party had bad intentions, so Jing Cheng could only speak hesitantly: "Are you...big brother?"
Hearing this title, Jing Rong raised his eyebrows. It seemed that he was really racking his brains. This kid always called him by his name, but this time he actually called him "Big Brother".
Jing Rong: "You want to..."
"Damn it! Haven't you eaten enough?! Fight! The Japanese are right in front of you, why are you staring with those big eyes and still gasping for breath?!" A rough male voice suddenly sounded.
Jing Cheng: "..." Ah! I almost forgot about the TV series!
Jing Rong: "..." Hmm? What?
"The Japs are also human beings, they are made of flesh, even if a big knife is used, it will make a hole in them!"
Jing Cheng: “…” Well said!
Jing Rong: “…” What the hell?
The two of them turned to look at the TV at the same time. A crucial plot was being played on TV. Against the backdrop of heavy gunfire, the protagonists were slashing at the enemy with their knives like crazy.
Blood splattered and the expressions of the two opposing sides were ferocious.
Jing Rong looked at Jing Cheng, who was staring at the TV with a serious face, and the corners of his mouth twitched because he couldn't bear it anymore.
