"Shi Jing, what's wrong with your health?"
Zhu Mingyue immediately took over Shi Jing's words and cooperated with him in a very tacit way.
"Sigh..." Shi Jing sighed, somewhat frustrated, "I don't know exactly what's wrong, but my hair just inexplicably turned white, and it's getting whiter and whiter!"
“My dad took me to several hospitals in Beijing for tests, but they couldn’t find anything. He was worried, so he decided to take me to Germany to try again.”
"Hey, I know about your gray hair!" Zhu Ning put her arm around Shi Jing's shoulder and said seriously, "Your hair started turning gray when we recorded the first episode. Many viewers in the live stream reminded you to go to the hospital."
Shi Jing nodded: "Yes."
Zhu Qian frowned: "Although I didn't watch the whole first episode, I have a deep impression of Shi Jing's white hair. At that time, the topic of turning white overnight was trending on social media for a whole day, and our hospital even held a special meeting to discuss it."
"Did you come to any conclusions?" Shi Jing asked with concern.
Zhu Qian shook his head: "The saying that hair turns white overnight is somewhat exaggerated. Usually, when patients suddenly grow white hair, it's like you, with small patches of hair growing. It's not like hair really turns completely white overnight. Moreover, there are many reasons why hair turns white, and we need to analyze each case specifically to accurately diagnose the cause."
"If you can't get any results at the hospitals in the capital, then you can definitely try going abroad. Maybe a different testing method will give you a better result."
“Yes! That’s what my dad thinks too.” Shi Jing deliberately raised his voice to make sure Zhu Xingye on the other end of the phone could hear every word he said.
"I suddenly terminated my contract with the program because my dad plans to accompany me to Germany in a few days. Since Chaochao is currently receiving treatment in Germany, I might as well go directly to Chaochao's hospital."
“Okay.” Zhu Qian agreed immediately. “Brother, which hospital is Chaochao in now? Tell me a name, and Shijing will go there in a few days.”
“…No need for all that trouble.” Zhu Xingye’s voice was a little tense, sounding cold yet also somewhat panicked. “Go to whichever hospital you need to go to. There’s no need to come all the way here to find Chaochao. Chaochao’s condition isn’t very good right now, and she shouldn’t be disturbed.”
"I won't disturb her!" Shi Jing quickly assured him. "Brother, I'm Chaochao's boyfriend, and I care about her health more than anyone else. I know she needs to rest more right now, so I absolutely won't bother her! I just want to see her and keep her company!"
"And I heard from my second brother that you know a very famous cardiologist at that hospital. My dad's heart hasn't been feeling well lately, so if it's convenient, I hope you can introduce him to that doctor so he can have a thorough check-up."
"..."
Zhu Xingye was prepared, but Shi Jing was equally prepared. Every word he spoke precisely targeted the weaknesses in Zhu Xingye's lies, leaving Zhu Xingye with no way to retaliate.
Zhu Jinzhao's illness was a lie, as was his trip to Germany for treatment. If Zhu Xingye forced himself to keep the lie and gave Shi Jing the name of the hospital, the lie would be exposed in the next second. But if he gritted his teeth and refused to tell Shi Jing the hospital's address, it would definitely arouse suspicion from Zhu Qian and Zhu Ning.
Moreover, Shi Jing has now brought out Shi Fei.
Shiyun Group and Zhu Group have a partnership, so Zhu Xingye has no reason not to introduce doctors to Shi Fei.
Shi Jing's demands are full of thorns, and no matter what Zhu Xingye chooses, he will be hurt by these thorns, and his carefully woven lies will eventually fall apart.
"Big brother?"
Zhu Xingye remained silent for a long time, so Zhu Qian couldn't help but urge him, "Did you hear what Shi Jing said?"
Zhu Xingye: "...I heard you."
Zhu Qian: "Since you heard that, you should quickly tell Shi Jing the name of the hospital."
“…I won’t tell.” Zhu Xingye gritted his teeth, deciding to give up entirely.
Since he'd be suspected no matter what he chose, he might as well shift all the suspicion onto his bad temper.
"Why?" Zhu Qian stared wide-eyed in surprise, not understanding why Zhu Xingye would give this answer.
Zhu Xingye suppressed his anger and deliberately put on a fierce look: "I haven't agreed to Chaochao dating yet, what boyfriend? I don't recognize him."
"...Huh?" Zhu Ning was stunned. "No, my dear brother! Dating isn't marriage, and it's not like choosing a university major. What's there to agree to?"
"As long as Chaochao has a good talk with someone, and he's not talking about a scumbag like Lu Yuzhou, then we brothers can rest assured, right?"
"Besides, Shi Jing is the son of Shi Fei. With such a terrifying family background right in front of you, are you out of your mind to disagree?"
Zhu Qian agreed with Zhu Ning's words, but since he didn't dare to speak up, he could only nod to show his stance.
"..." Zhu Xingye had no way to refute Zhu Ning, so he could only vent his anger on other issues Zhu Ning had raised.
"Zhu Ning, are you insane? How dare you talk to me like that?"
"I'm sorry." Zhu Ning apologized very quickly, but showed no remorse. "Brother, I may have been a little rough with my words, but my reasoning was sound!"
"Shi Jing is so handsome, so outstanding, and comes from such a good family. What reason do you have not to agree with him?"
"...Do I need a reason to disagree with him?" Zhu Xing said arrogantly, "I don't care whose son he is, or how powerful his family is, I just disagree!"
"Why?" Zhu Ning really didn't understand him. "Shi Jing didn't do anything to you, so why do you disagree with him? What is it about him that you don't like?"
Zhu Xingye: "I'm not dissatisfied, but I just disagree."
"...Hey! Are you out of your mind?!" Zhu Ning was so angry that she snatched Zhu Qian's phone and started arguing with him, her face flushed.
"Our Chaochao finally found a boyfriend with excellent character and family background. Why do you disagree? Do you want to see her stay single for the rest of her life?"
"Would you be happy if she started dating those disgusting gigolos?"
Zhu Xingye: "Is that what I meant?"
Zhu Ning: "So that's what you mean! Go to the capital and search high and low, see if you can find another person as outstanding as Shi Jing!"
Zhu Xingye: "Why should I look for him? I don't like him!"
Zhu Ning: "Why do you like him? He's Chaochao's boyfriend!"
The two brothers started arguing loudly at the slightest disagreement, startling everyone in the living room.
Shi Jing was the first to react, and said helplessly and aggrievedly, "Garlic Bird, Garlic Bird, my two brothers, don't fight like this because of me."
