Chapter 186 Those who go there are not normal people.
Gu Dongxuan followed Shi Nianzhi's gaze and then said calmly, "What you see is only one side, and that's the good side. He's already like this, Zijian, if you want, take him away."
Gu Dongxuan seemed to realize that Nianzhi would be somewhat restrained while he was there, so he left.
Shi Nianzhi walked over to Lu Jiunian.
He stood in front of him and said, "If you directed and acted in this whole thing yourself, I think it was completely unnecessary."
Lu Jiunian did not react; he was still staring blankly at a certain spot.
There are many mental patients in the back garden; this is their free time.
A diverse group of mentally ill individuals gathered together; some chattered incessantly, some appeared normal but were actually quite abnormal, and others, like Lu Jiunian, were quiet and listless.
Shi Nianzhi reached out and waved his hand in front of Lu Jiunian, "If you're acting, you're going a bit overboard."
Lu Jiunian did not react. After a while, he slowly squatted down and dug into the mud with his hands.
Shi Nianzhi then noticed that the veins on the back of his hand were covered with needle marks from injections, as well as scratches, which looked heartbreaking.
"Alright."
Shi Nianzhi saw that Lu Jiunian's hands were dirty, and dust had settled on his wounds.
He gripped Lu Jiunian's wrist tightly, "How old are you and you're still digging in the mud!"
To everyone's surprise, Lu Jiunian reacted as if by reflex, shaking off Shi Nianzhi's hand and then covering his face with his hand.
He looked terrified and screamed as if he were a madman:
"don't want----"
"Don't hit me—"
His voice cracked from shouting, which showed how scared he was.
He then began to lose control of his emotions, shouting for people not to hit him while destroying the flowers and plants in the garden. He punched and kicked the wall, drawing blood from his hands, but seemed not to feel the pain as he continued.
Doctors and nurses rushed over upon seeing this, and several of them pinned Lu Jiunian to the ground and tied him up with rope.
"You didn't give him a sedative, and you just tied him up like this? Didn't you see the injuries on his body? He's in pain! He's begging you not to hit him, didn't you hear him?!"
Shi Nianzhi tried to step forward to stop him, but a doctor came over and stopped him. "We understand your feelings, but there's nothing we can do about the patient's condition. He goes crazy many times every day. If we give him sedatives every time, the side effects will be severe, and he will become dependent on them, which will be detrimental to his recovery. As for the marks on his body, every patient who is admitted to a mental hospital goes through these. Once he adapts, they will gradually heal. You've seen it yourself; if we don't control him, he will harm himself. Right now, he can't feel pain anymore."
Shi Nianzhi stood there, looking at Lu Jiunian who was tied up on the ground.
The man who was once so high and mighty was now cowering in a ball, trembling as he whispered, "Don't hit me, don't hit me."
Shi Nianzhi suddenly clenched his fist at his side and pushed the doctor away forcefully.
"He's a human being, not a dog that you can keep chained up!"
Shi Nianzhi pushed away the hands that were holding Lu Jiunian down and bent down to untie the ropes.
"Don't untie him, he'll hurt someone!"
Read it aloud when the doctor gives advice.
But Shi Nianzhi wouldn't listen at all. He untied the thick hemp rope from Lu Jiunian and threw it aside.
"Don't hit me..."
Shi Nianzhi held Lu Jiunian in her arms, saying, "I'm here, no one will hit you."
He patted Lu Jiunian on the back and realized that it wasn't that the hospital gown was too big; Lu Jiunian had really lost a lot of weight.
Shi Nianzhi couldn't quite describe the feeling in his heart.
But the next second, Lu Jiunian grabbed him by the neck and slammed his head hard against the stone bench under the pavilion. The sharp edge of the stone bench scratched Shi Nianzhi's scalp, and blood gushed out instantly.
Shi Nianzhi's eyes flashed fiercely, and Lu Jiunian's face became blurry before his eyes, his vision began to darken.
He couldn't see what Lu Jiunian's expression was like, he only knew that the hand choking him gradually loosened its grip, and then he was suddenly pulled into someone's arms.
The strength was so great it felt like he could crush his bones.
Lu Jiunian held Shi Nianzhi, whose face was covered in blood, his eyes filled with grief and sorrow, tears streaming down his face, and he let out a low sob.
But his consciousness was in a state of confusion; he didn't even know why he was so sad or who the person in his arms was.
When the doctor realized something was wrong, he quickly sent someone to save Shi Nianzhi, who was in Lu Jiunian's arms.
The injuries are so severe, they need immediate medical attention.
But Lu Jiunian was like a fierce beast protecting its prey, holding the unconscious Shi Nianzhi tightly and refusing to let anyone take her away from his arms.
Even if those people hit him, grabbed him, and used great force to break his fingers.
He refused to let go, even though he had forgotten who the person in his arms was; subconsciously, he felt he couldn't let go.
He had forgotten everything, and he didn't realize that holding Shi Nianzhi like this would only kill him.
"Go get the sedatives."
Soon, a sedative was injected into Lu Jiunian's body, and his hand was instantly immobilized. He could only watch helplessly as someone snatched Shi Nianzhi from his arms.
He could no longer support himself and collapsed to the ground, his bloodshot eyes fixed on the direction where Shi Nianzhi was being carried away, tears streaming uncontrollably down his face.
His dry, hoarse voice sounded as if he couldn't breathe, and he strained until the veins on his forehead bulged before he could utter two complete words.
"Don't...go..."
Hospital.
Shi Nianzhi woke up in a VIP ward. Gu Dongxuan was sitting by his bedside, working on company matters on his computer, looking very focused.
It was pitch black outside, and the ward was silent except for the occasional soft sound of Gu Dongxuan typing on his keyboard.
Shi Nianzhi had a terrible headache, especially around the wound on his head, which felt like it was about to explode.
When the pain intensified, Nianzhi gently touched the gauze with her hand, "Hiss—"
Gu Dongxuan immediately put down his thin laptop. "You're awake! You really scared me to death today. If I had known you were like this, I wouldn't have told you that Lu Jiunian had gone mad. It's all my fault for making you like this!"
"I'm fine, it's just that my wound hurts a little."
"How could it not hurt? Such a deep wound, so much blood. Lu Jiunian is a madman. Don't go see him again. He even hurt you, so he's completely lost his mind. I used to sympathize with him, but now I realize I was too kind. Why should I let my excellent younger brother spend the rest of his life with a madman?"
Shi Nianzhi smiled but didn't say anything.
Gu Dongxuan added, "Brother was mistaken before. Zijian, just pretend I didn't say anything. Stick to your own ideas and stay away from Lu Jiunian. Besides, didn't you sign an agreement with Lu Bing? If you stay with Lu Jiunian, you'll have to return the Lu Group and lose billions of US dollars, which would be a loss for us."
Shi Nianzhi agreed readily, "Yes, I know. I won't have anything to do with that madman."
"Are you hungry? I'll have someone bring you some food."
"good."
The assistant quickly brought over the porridge box.
Gu Dongxuan saw that Shi Nianzhi had also eaten and had not vomited.
He felt relieved that the knot in his heart had been untied. He slept on the nursing bed for one night and went to the company early the next morning.
After finishing breakfast, Shi Nianzhi sent his assistant away, threw off the covers, got out of bed, and left.
"Remember this often!"
Zhou He chased after her from afar and finally caught up with her in front of the elevator. "Shi Nianzhi!"
Shi Nianzhi looked at the person in front of her and actually remembered him somewhat.
The school heartthrob next door had a relationship with Gu Yuanyuan.
His name seems to be Zhou He, and he looks just like his name suggests, with an ethereal quality.
"What's up?"
"Shi Nianzhi, Su Hengyi and Gu Yuanyuan got married, what about Mu Guangcheng?"
Shi Nianzhi smiled slightly, "No comment."
He stepped into the elevator.
Zhou He followed in relentlessly, "Everyone knows that Su Hengyi is madly in love with Mu Guangcheng, but instead of being with Mu Guangcheng, Su Hengyi married my brother Yuan. I want to know, what does my brother Yuan mean to me?"
Shi Nianzhi remained silent and reached out to press the button for the first floor.
Seeing that Shi Nianzhi didn't say anything, Zhou He spoke again, "I want you to tell Su Hengyi that Yuan-ge is spoiled and willful but is very fragile at heart. He is afraid of pain but is very proud. He is stingy, gets angry easily, and gets jealous easily... Yuan-ge is very delicate. Please ask him to treat my Yuan-ge better."
Shi Nianzhi looked at Zhou He and smiled slightly, "I will speak for you."
Zhou He had already started crying. Seeing Shi Nianzhi exit the elevator, he followed her with great concern. "And could you please tell Yuan Ge for me that if Su Hengyi ever dislikes him or if he feels wronged by Su Hengyi, he should come back to me. I will treat him the same as before and still cherish him."
"Um."
"Yuan-ge has a bad stomach, so tell him not to drink so much, especially drinking alone is bad for his health. Yuan-ge should use his phone less, his eyes get dry easily. He should look left and right before crossing the street, he always rushes across recklessly. Also, tell him not to lose his temper and fight so often, it will hurt himself..."
He doesn't like scallions, garlic, or ginger, nor does he like cilantro. He prefers mild spice but dislikes numbing spice. He doesn't like fish but will eat a little occasionally. He hates fish bones. He doesn't like salty food but will get angry if it's bland. He doesn't like seafood, but he'll eat shrimp even if he doesn't like peeling them. He hates very sour or very sweet foods, and... "
Shi Nianzhi turned to look at Zhou He and interrupted him, "Gu Yuanyuan is not a child anymore."
With tears in his eyes, Zhou He remained stubborn, saying, "But Brother Yuan is like a child to me, a little darling who needs to be pampered and cherished."
Shi Nianzhi: "..."
My head, which was feeling a little better, started buzzing and throbbing from Zhou He's noise.
Shi Nianzhi pressed her brow bone with her hand. "Don't you have his contact information? Why don't you tell him yourself?"
Zhou He seemed unable to hold back his grievances any longer. He pouted and choked up, his eyes red and swollen from crying, like an innocent little white rabbit. "Brother Yuan blocked me."
Shi Nianzhi: "..."
My head hurts so much.
"I understand, I'll have him contact you."
"Really? Is it true? That's too—"
Before Zhou He could finish speaking, Shi Nianzhi coldly interrupted, "If you bother me again, then you're not real."
Zhou He immediately left Shi Nianzhi eight zhang away.
Shi Nianzhi hailed a taxi.
The driver, a young man, asked with a grin, "Where are you going, handsome?"
Shi Nianzhi said indifferently, "Mental Hospital."
