The dean said: "Yes, how did Mr. Tang know? The person who sent him here said that he would be locked in a VIP room alone and that he would not need to worry about him. Just give him food and drink every day. Then he paid half a month's hospitalization fee in advance. He said someone would pick him up in half a month. It’s due tomorrow.”
Tang Zhaonian: "That's my relative. Release him quickly. I'll pick him up right away."
He hung up the phone and walked out while cursing: "Liban rushed to the street, he was so cunning. He actually locked Tao Guangming in the VIP room of the lunatic asylum. If you, a pervert, hadn't thought of it, that fat kid wouldn't have been locked up. In it for life.”
Li Wenjun looked at him helplessly: "Weren't you the one who imprisoned Ji Qingtao first?"
Tang Zhaonian paused and then cursed: "That guy who rushed to the street was just to take revenge on me. Throw him down." This is indeed something that a person like Ji Qingtao who is determined to retaliate can do.
Tang Zhaonian called a few people and got in the car, and they arrived at Qingshan Hospital in a hurry.
The director of Qingshan Hospital came out to greet them from afar.
Tao Guangming is not around.
Tang Zhaonian jumped out of the car: "Where is the man? Didn't I ask you to be released?"
The dean looked embarrassed: "Mr. Tao refused to come out, saying that he would not come out unless Mr. Li Wenjun or Mr. Tang went to his ward in person. Because Mr. Li Wenjun said that he would come to save him. He didn't believe anyone else."
Li Wenjun's eyes were sore for no reason, and he didn't know whether to call this bastard smart or cautious.
He and Tang Zhaonian ran all the way into the VIP ward under the leadership of the dean.
It's said to be a VIP ward, but it's actually a single cell. No prison uniforms, but hospital gowns.
There was an indescribable smell permeating the corridor, the smell of excrement masked by disinfectant.
When I heard someone coming in, a pair of eager, slightly crazy or silly eyes appeared in the windows of several rooms.
Someone screamed and cried: "Let me out. Please, I'm not crazy."
Others laughed: "I have seen God. You can't trap me."
Even Tang Zhaonian and Li Wenjun, two people who had seen countless big scenes, felt the chill behind them and felt tingly in their hearts.
Tang Zhaonian choked and shouted: "Fat boy. Tao Guangming, we are here to save you."
Then Tao Guangming's crying voice sounded in the last room of the corridor: "Why are you two bastards here..."
Li Wenjun was originally very sad, but now he couldn't help laughing: "Listening to this voice, it's quite energetic." It shouldn't be a big deal.
The dean timidly said: "Because Mr. Tao has always been quiet and cooperative, we didn't give him a shot of Diazepam."
Li Wenjun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Zhaonian caught the director and said through gritted teeth: "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry open the door and let the person out."
The dean shivered with fear.
Tang Zhaonian was in a state of uncertainty, and his reputation for killing people without batting an eye was known to everyone in Hong Kong.
Now his relative has been locked up by him for half a month, and he might just kill him in the corridor.
He took the key from the carer and wanted to insert it into the keyhole, but his hands were shaking so much that he couldn't hold it at all.
The door was not opened and the key fell to the ground.
Tang Zhaonian pushed him away, picked up the key and opened the door.
Tao Guangming was sitting on the bed in a hospital gown. He was so thin that his eye sockets and cheeks were sunken. His beard and hair were long, like a wild man.
He hugged Tang Zhaonian and cried loudly: "You are here."
Tang Zhaonian's eyes turned red and he patted Tao Guangming: "You have suffered."
Tao Guangming let go of Tang Zhaonian's embrace of Li Wenjun: "I remember your last words and didn't resist at all."
Li Wenjun patted him: "Yes, you are great, you have suffered a lot less." Otherwise, if you take one shot of Valium a day, you will not be normal after half a month.
Tang Zhaonian pointed outside: "Go out and talk, it's so gloomy and uncomfortable here. I'll take you to eat something good."
----
Tao Guangming changed into his clothes in the car and finally looked much better than before. Although he didn't cry anymore, he didn't speak, his eyes were dull, like a fool.
Li Wenjun and Tang Zhaonian exchanged looks, feeling very uncomfortable.
When he arrived at the hotel, Tang Zhaonian specially took the VIP channel so that he didn't have to meet anyone else.
After sitting down in the private room, he asked people to bring everything that could be served immediately.
Then the waiters filed in and put the dim sum and cold dishes on the table.
Tao Guangming's eyes glowed green, he devoured his food ravenously, and shot his bow left and right. His past gentle tutor was completely forgotten, and he looked like a hungry wolf.
Tang Zhaonian's face felt like his muscles were trembling.
Li Wenjun said: "Slow down, slow down."
He and Tang Zhaonian were both people who had experienced hunger and knew how uncomfortable it felt.
Poor Tao Guangming, a dandy, had he ever been so hungry?
Tao Guangming didn't care whether he had time to swallow it or not, he just stuffed it into his mouth and rolled his eyes while choking.
Li Wenjun silently poured him a glass of warm water and placed it next to his hand.
Tao Guangming spit out the contents of his mouth, took a sip of water, and tried to stuff it again.
Li Wenjun held down his hand: "Slow down, no one will fight you. You have been hungry for so many days and your body will not be able to bear it if you eat so much at once."
Tao Guangming slowed down, but he still ate faster than usual.
Seeing that he was done, Li Wenjun stopped him: "Come and take a break. Let's talk and drink tea. We'll eat later. We're not in a hurry to leave anyway."
Tao Guangming knew that Li Wenjun was doing it for his own good, so he stopped but kept his eyes on the food.
Tang Zhaonian received the look from Li Wenjun and went out to ask the waiter to take the things away.
Then Tao Guangming stared at the door again.
Li Wenjun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said something to attract Tao Guangming's attention: "Don't you ask me why they arrested you?"
As expected, Tao Guangming's eyes turned from the door to Li Wenjun's face and asked: "Why."
Then he and Tang Zhaonian vividly recounted what happened in the past half month.
Tao Guangming was speechless after hearing this, and finally said: "So many things have happened."
Li Wenjun dialed Tao Guangming's home phone number on his mobile phone.
The call was picked up almost immediately. It could be seen that Ji Rushi was waiting by the phone at any time: "Hello."
Li Wenjun said: "I'll let Tao Guangming talk to you."
Tao Guangming took the call: "Hello, this is Tao Guangming."
Ji Rushi's sobs were immediately heard on the phone: "Are you okay? Are you suffering or injured?"
Tao Guangming's lips trembled, but he was afraid of scaring Ji Rushi. He gritted his teeth and swallowed his tears. He pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's okay. I just lost a few pounds, which is a good thing."
The two of them whispered for more than half an hour.
After hanging up the phone, Li Wenjun looked at the time and said to Tang Zhaonian: "Serve the food, let's eat together."
This time, Tao Guangming finally returned to normal speed.
On the way back, Tao Guangming rubbed his round belly and burped while scolding Ji Qingtao and Gan Qiangsheng, turning back into the talkative little ruffian he usually was.
Li Wenjun and Tang Zhaonian exchanged secret glances again: As expected, only Ji Rushi could soothe his hurt heart.
