"Brother, but you're like this..." Qian Chengyi stretched out his right hand and wiped his tears haphazardly across his face, trying to stop the tears from rolling down, but to no avail.
"I'm really fine, everything will be alright," Qian Chengfeng said softly.
His voice was so soft that it seemed only he could hear it, and he didn't know whether he was comforting himself or his younger brother, Qian Chengyi.
"Yes, I believe in you, brother. Things will definitely get better, and I will help you too." Qian Chengyi suppressed his grief, tried to stop his tears, and replied firmly.
"Xiao Yi, you've really grown up. You even know to help your brother now."
“But your brother doesn’t need you to do anything. He just hopes you can be happy and joyful, and be your most authentic self,” Qian Chengfeng said gently to Qian Chengyi, while patting Qian Chengyi’s hand lightly to comfort him.
"Brother, I admit I didn't do a good job last time, but I'll definitely do it well next time, please believe me!"
Qian Chengyi looked at Qian Chengfeng with a firm and confident gaze, as if trying to convey a sense of strength and confidence to his brother through his eyes.
However, when Qian Chengyi thought about how he had failed to persuade Huo Chengyu to invest last time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration.
"It's alright, Xiao Yi. Last time, I was too impulsive and couldn't hold back my anger, which is why I asked you to deal with Huo Chengyu. It's all my fault," Qian Chengfeng said with a hint of regret and self-reproach.
“There won’t be a next time. From now on, just focus on doing what you want to do. It’s my fault for not taking good care of you, which led to you getting involved in all this mess.” Qian Chengfeng revealed deep remorse.
"elder brother……"
Before Qian Chengyi could finish speaking, Qian Chengfeng interrupted him, saying, "Alright, take my brother back."
"Okay, sure."
The walls of Qian Chengfeng's bedroom were painted a smooth gray-white, and a large black leather bed was placed in the center of the room, giving it an understated yet luxurious feel.
The white sheets and black pillows created a striking contrast, and a black lamp sat on the bedside table.
The gray-white curtains covered the windows, making the room feel more private.
A large black wardrobe stands against the wall, its clean lines complementing the overall style.
The gray handles on the wardrobe add a touch of detail. An abstract painting in black, white, and gray hangs above the bed, adding an artistic touch to the room.
"Brother, lie down and rest for a while. I'll go get your medicine right away." Qian Chengyi carefully helped Qian Chengfeng sit down on the edge of the bed.
"No need for that. You can just go and call Dr. Wu over."
"With your clumsy hands, it'll probably take you until tomorrow morning to apply the medicine to me." Qian Chengfeng endured the pain, deliberately putting on a nonchalant expression.
In fact, he knew very well that if his younger brother treated his wounds himself, it would probably break his brother's heart and he might even cry again.
That's why I came up with this excuse to get rid of him and avoid letting him see my battered and bruised appearance.
"Oh, okay then, I'll go find Dr. Wu right away." Qian Chengyi didn't realize his brother's true thoughts and hurriedly ran downstairs.
Watching his younger brother's departing figure, Qian Chengfeng finally could not bear the excruciating pain in his body any longer. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then slowly lay down on the hospital bed.
Just now, when Huo Chengyu was mentioned, a person involuntarily came to Qian Chengfeng's mind—Huo Nanchu.
At the age of ten, he followed his father's wishes and befriended Huo Nanchu.
Despite his reluctance, he had no choice but to obey his father's wishes.
To this day, he still vividly remembers the scene when he first visited the Huo family.
At that time, Zhao Qiuying was kind and approachable, and took great care of herself and Huo Nanchu. She not only prepared many delicious snacks, but also specially bought all kinds of novel and interesting toys for them to play with and have fun.
Although Huo Shan appeared very strict, he was full of affection for Huo Nanchu.
Witnessing the warm and beautiful scene before him, Qian Chengfeng couldn't help but feel a surge of intense jealousy.
He pondered to himself: Why is fate so unfair? Why is Huo Nanchu able to have such a happy and fulfilling family life?
This extreme sense of imbalance caused Qian Chengfeng to harbor resentment, which he found difficult to let go of for a long time.
Therefore, he desperately wanted to destroy Huo Nanchu, to witness him fall from grace, and to personally experience the pain and torment he had gone through.
Furthermore, significant actions must be taken if one wishes to establish a firm foothold within the Qian family and achieve greater success.
Bringing down the Huo Group would quickly win the approval of the Qian family's top management and accelerate his plan to retaliate against Qian Ming and Qian Chengjin.
It is fair to say that, whether from an emotional or economic perspective, there is absolutely no possibility for Qian Chengfeng and Huo Nanchu to get along harmoniously and peacefully.
"Brother, Dr. Wu is here!" Qian Chengyi shouted loudly.
Hearing his younger brother's shout, Qian Chengfeng mustered his strength and struggled to sit up.
"Young Master." Dr. Wu responded softly, then skillfully opened the medicine box and took out the necessary items for use.
This Dr. Wu, whose real name was Wu Yong, was around forty years old and was a private doctor specially hired by the Qian family.
They had become accustomed to Qian Chengfeng's injuries, but were helpless and could only feel sorry for him in silence.
"Xiao Yi, I suddenly have a craving for pastries from Cuiyuxuan. Could you go and buy some?"
