Ning Zhiheng left the ward and instructed Zeng Xingguo, who had been guarding outside, "Arrange for someone to stay here and prevent any further accidents."
"Yes!" Zeng Xingguo nodded and accepted the order, arranging for his team members to guard the area.
Ning Zhiheng then said to Jian Zhengping, who was standing next to him, "Zhiming has two classmates who were injured while trying to save him and are being treated in the hospital. Take the sulfonamide to them and tell the doctor to give them the best possible treatment."
Jian Zhengping was best at doing these kinds of trivial things. After the accident, he stayed at the hospital without daring to be negligent for a moment, waiting for Ning Zhiheng's instructions. Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's orders, he quickly accepted the order and left.
"It's not convenient for me to show up. My father and elder brother will go to see Zhiming's classmates later. After all, they saved Zhiming, and they should thank them handsomely."
Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Ning Liangcai nodded repeatedly. It wasn't that they were ignorant of the ways of the world; they had simply been so worried about Ning Zhiming's safety that they hadn't had time to visit the other injured people.
Ning Zhiheng thought for a moment and then said again, "Also, I see that Zhiming really likes this school and gets along very well with his classmates. This time, his classmates were willing to risk their lives to save him, which is truly rare!"
But if he keeps skipping classes, I'm afraid he'll neglect his studies. He just mentioned wanting the family to sponsor his studies at Jinling University, and I think it's a good idea. What do you think, Father?
When Ning Liangcai heard Ning Zhiheng suddenly mention this matter, he was taken aback. He was not a miser; on the contrary, after years of ups and downs in the business world, he was never eager for quick success or short-term gains, nor was he swayed by small profits. Moreover, he was generous and righteous, and was considered an enlightened person among businessmen. Otherwise, when he moved his whole family away from Hangzhou, so many old partners would not have followed him with their families.
After a moment's thought, he said, "Actually, when Zhiming came home asking for money, I was somewhat tempted. To be honest, with the Ning family's financial resources, spending some money to help Jinling University resume classes wouldn't be a big deal. It's not that I'm unwilling to spend the money, but after careful consideration, I wondered if doing so would be too conspicuous. We are just a business, and even the country can't support us. If we rashly step forward to sponsor the school, I'm afraid it will attract attention and eventually drag you into it too."
Ning Zhiheng agreed with his father's concerns, as he also hoped that his family could keep a low profile to avoid any unexpected incidents.
"Of course, this matter cannot be discussed openly. I think we can talk to Principal Chen privately and make an anonymous donation. It doesn't need to be a large amount, just enough to keep the school running. Consider it money to pay more tuition for Zhiming. What do you think?"
Now, in the Ning family, Ning Zhiheng's opinions are the main ones, so Ning Liangcai naturally doesn't say anything more.
Actually, he was happy to see Ning Zhiheng thinking so much about his younger brother and even willing to spend money to support his studies. This second son had always had a cold face and seemed to be distant from everyone, but he was actually warm-hearted. If it weren't for his efforts in protecting the family, who knows what would have become of them? In this chaotic world, they would probably have fallen apart long ago.
He nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then I'll do as you say and go and contact Principal Chen to have a good talk with him."
Ning Zhiheng added, "Don't tell my family about Zhiming's situation, so as not to worry my mother. I'm too busy with official duties. I'll go home to visit my mother in a few days."
Ning Zhipeng chimed in, "Zhiheng, you need to be careful when you're out there. I went to Tongyuan Gate the other day and saw you executing a Japanese spy. I was really worried for you. It's too dangerous for you to do these things every day."
Every so often, Tongyuanmen would execute a group of Japanese spies, a fact that had spread throughout Chongqing. When Ning Zhipeng heard the news, he rushed to the execution site, but with so many people around, he dared not speak to Ning Zhiheng. Knowing that his second brother dealt with such matters every day, he was naturally very worried.
"I know, you don't need to worry!" Ning Zhiheng didn't say anything more, just nodded, patted his brother's shoulder, and turned to leave the hospital.
Watching Ning Zhiheng leave, Ning Liangcai sighed and said to his eldest son, "Our family is now entirely dependent on Zhiheng. It's pitiful that he's afraid of implicating us, so he rarely dares to come home. I don't know when this will end."
Hearing his father's sigh, Ning Zhipeng shook his head; both father and son felt bad.
Meanwhile, Fang Boyi, after leaving the hospital, quickly returned home, took off his coat, sat in the chair in his study, calmed down, and carefully recalled the details of his interaction with Ning Zhiheng today. Only after confirming that his performance had not given anything away did he feel relieved.
After all, Ning Zhiheng was the most outstanding intelligence expert in the Military Intelligence Bureau, and one could not afford to be careless in front of such a person.
He was one of the most senior professors at Jinling University and also the history teacher of Ning Zhiming's class. Although he knew that Ning Zhiming's family was wealthy and had some background, he still did not expect that his brother was actually Ning Zhiheng, the director of the Second Action Division of the Military Intelligence Bureau.
Fang Boyi had a deep understanding of Ning Zhiheng. As a high-ranking figure in the Kuomintang's intelligence department, his position was naturally extremely crucial and important. Therefore, the underground party had collected information about him. However, because Ning Zhiheng's information was all top secret, they knew very little about him. Even though the underground party had many informants in the Military Intelligence Bureau, they still didn't get any results. But today, they made a major discovery.
What's more, Ning Zhiheng's younger brother is actually my student. I have quite a connection with him. It seems I can start working on some things in advance.
