Chapter 417: Chapter 418 Dong Xiaoye’s Warning
Yang Wei’s battered nose was bruised and swollen, bleeding profusely. His injury seemed to be the worst, but actually, he was the least injured. His head had been smashed by a bottle; it was bleeding for a while, but the cut wasn’t big, and it only needed five stitches.
Xiao Sun’s face was smashed by an ashtray. It broke the bridge of his nose and knocked out two of his front teeth. In addition, he also had multiple musculature bruises on his body.
Tian Guochong suffered the most serious injury, probably because he went to save Gong Fanlin first. He had a broken arm, two broken ribs, and had been so agitated that he even coughed up blood when he got to the hospital.
Ziyuan felt very guilty, thinking that if she didn’t agree to Tian Guochong’s invitation, this wouldn’t have happened. Qin Lan felt that she shouldn’t have made Gong Fanlin drink so much, otherwise everyone wouldn’t have gone upstairs to dance, and then, they wouldn’t have encountered the yellow-haired young man.
Yao Wan’er, who was usually not talkative, had been complaining about Gong Fanlin since we left Earthly Paradise. Everything was caused by Gong Fanlin, but he secretly ran away. It was really despicable. She suggested that Mo Fei should fire him, saying that although he was a competent man, he was not a good person at all; keeping him in the general operation team would only harm the people working in the general operation team.
In fact, Yao Wan’er was not the only one who had this thought. Even Tian Guochong and Sun Zhe, who usually had a good relationship with Gong Fanlin, also couldn’t help cursing that he was not loyal to friends. They obviously went to help him, but he ran away.
Tian Guochong’s arm was broken when he tried to block the bat for Gong Fanlin, but when he fell to the ground, Gong Fanlin was already gone…
Boss Feng’s face was full of guilt. He repeatedly promised that besides medical expenses, Earthly Paradise would also give other compensations. However, we all knew that he wasn’t really willing to compensate us. The reason why he was doing this was mainly to please Sang Yingjie indirectly through me.
In order to save the face of Mo Fei and her mother Wu Xueqing, and to conceal Xiao Yike’s background, I did not explain my relationship with Sang Yingjie to Liusu, Ziyuan, and the others. But those girls also seemed to be avoiding me. No one actually came to ask me anything or comfort me.
I always felt that their attitude towards me became a little strange, as if they were deliberately keeping a distance from me, but because my mind was in a muddle, I really didn’t bother to think about it.
Speaking of the guilt, the one who should feel guilty the most should be me. I was the host of this welcome party, but… Not only did a fight break out during the party, but my guests also got into a fight in the club. Moreover, when we left the club, we were even attacked by a group of people and ended up in the hospital in the end.
Xiao Yike’s words were really not reliable. Didn’t she say that Lin Yun’an wouldn’t retaliate against me?
Tian Guochong would not be able to leave the hospital for a while. The doctor suggested that Yang Wei and Sun Zhe should also stay in the hospital for observation for a period of time. Anyway, Boss Feng would pay for all the expenses, so the two did not refuse. Mo Fei also gave them a paid holiday and told them that they could come back to the company after they recovered from their injuries.
Mo Fei was really a good boss, after all, this was not a work injury…
I originally wanted to send all the girls home separately, but after Dong Xiaoye came to the hospital, all the girls asked her to take me home. Their attitude of avoiding me actually hurt me a little. Could it be that I was too ruthless when I hit that yellow-haired young man, or was it because they were scared of me after they discovered that Sang Yingjie, this gangster, claimed to be my brother?
What I didn’t expect was that Yao Wan’er, who was originally scared of seeing blood, comforted me, saying that not only was I not responsible for what happened tonight, but it was also because of me that no more people were injured.
Hearing this, I could only smile bitterly. After all, if I didn’t attend the party, they wouldn’t be attacked by a group of knife-wielding delinquents.
On the way home, I was still thinking about the scene when I parted with Liusu, Mo Fei, and Ziyuan. The three girls seemed to want to say something, but even after I left, they still didn’t say anything. What did they want to tell me? And why were they hesitant to tell me?
“I only left for a short while, but this kind of thing happened. Chu Nan, did you do it on purpose? I’m here to protect you, not to be your driver! Why did you have an accident every time when I was not by your side? Is it a coincidence?”
I had already told Dong Xiaoye on the phone about what had happened. I just concealed the part that we were attacked by a group of knife-wielding delinquents.
Sang Yingjie temporarily detained those delinquents, so it would be very troublesome if Dong Xiaoye found out about this.
Nowadays, delinquent students always blindly worshipped gangsters, and they weren’t really scared of the police at all; so it would be less efficient to hand them over to the police.
“If I knew that this kind of thing would happen, would I let you go first? Compared to using a broken bottle to threaten them, wouldn’t it be more convenient to use your gun to intimidate them? Who would have thought that Gong Fanlin would cause so much trouble?”
Dong Xiaoye said with a look of disgust, “What is Mo Fei thinking? Why did she allow this kind of person to pass the interview? The bar of your Fengchang Group is really not high…”
“What does this have anything to do with Mo Fei? A person’s ability is different from a person’s character. Besides, no one is able to tell other people’s character in just a day or two.”
“Anyway, I can see it at a glance. Just from his lecherous eyes alone, I can already tell that he is not a good person!”
“You are just judging people by their appearance…” Although I said so, in my heart, Gong Fanlin was indeed a guy whose character was so bad that it was clearly written on his face. Even though he had abilities, I also found it a little weird that Mo Fei would use this kind of person.
“I’m judging people by their appearance?” Dong Xiaoye chuckled strangely, “Did you not see the look in his eyes when he looked at us at the dinner table? It’s so nasty that I almost threw up. It was as if he wanted to see through our clothes… Also, the fight between him and your friend is definitely because of the woman named Qin Lan. It’s okay for two men to fight over a woman, but he actually deliberately spilled the drink on a girl. He is clearly a scumbag…”
“Gong Fanlin and Brother Wei fought each other over Qin Lan?” I couldn’t help but interrupt Dong Xiaoye with a chuckle, “How can you be so sure? Brother Wei and Qin Lan? That’s impossible. The characters of the two are not compatible with each other. Don’t listen to other people’s nonsense. Gong Fanlin and Brother Wei had conflicts with each other in the past, that was just the excuse Gong Fanlin used to fight with Brother Wei. How can you believe him?”
“Who said that I believed him? Don’t underestimate my observational skill. I am a criminal investigator after all.” Dong Xiaoye rolled her eyes at me and said, “That Qin Lan woman mocked that scumbag twice. Do you remember how she mocked him the first time? She mocked him that he couldn’t take the joke. In other words, he is so petty-minded, not acting like a man. Then think about how that scumbag mocked Yang Wei later. Is it really just a coincidence?”
I was dazed. Gong Fanlin had indeed made fun of Brother Wei for not acting like a man… Was Qin Lan really trying to defend Brother Wei? Then I thought about what I saw at the car park earlier. Although Brother Wei was still bleeding at that time, he still insisted on driving Qin Lan’s car. He was worried that Qin Lan would have an accident while driving after drinking…
The more I thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case…
Dong Xiaoye continued on, “I was watching you playing games with Dongfang, so I didn’t notice how that scumbag spilled a drink on Qin Lan, but from Yang Wei’s extreme reaction alone, who would believe that there’s nothing going on between them? If there’s really nothing going on between them, why did he have such an extreme reaction? If that scumbag spilled a drink on Liusu or Mo Fei, I don’t believe you would not be angry…”
As soon as Dong Xiaoye mentioned the game I was playing with Dongfang, I couldn’t help but remember the unexpected kiss. In fact, when Dongfang teased me before, she had that kind of intimate contact with me more than once.
Didn’t she deliberately leave a kiss mark on my face while I was asleep before? But today, I didn’t know what happened to her, even until Dong Xiaoye took her away, her face was still blushing. Since when did that bratty girl become so shy?
Anyway, I stopped thinking about Brother Wei and Qin Lan’s business shortly after. After all, that was their personal affairs. Not to mention that I also wished that they could be together.
“You didn’t tell Yuan Yuan about my fight with others, did you?”
Dong Xiaoye said in a huff, “Do you think this kind of thing is very glorious? Do you want to brag about it in front of your little sister?”
I chuckled, “I was worried that you would tell her. I’m her elder brother after all. I have to set a good example in everything, don’t you think so?”
“Just based on the fact that you have a friend like Sang Yingjie, you are destined to be a bad example,” Dong Xiaoye didn’t seem to be able to hold back her questions anymore. She sighed and asked, “Chu Nan, tell me the truth, what’s your relationship with Sang Yingjie?”
I didn’t want to drag Xiao Yike into this, so I simply said, “I don’t have any relationship with him, I just know him…”
“Who are you trying to fool?” Sister Tiger glared at me and said, “The last time someone wanted to splash Mo Fei with feces was also related to Sang Yingjie, right? When he handed you his business card outside the police station, I could tell that you two not only knew each other but also had a close relationship. You’d better tell me the truth now. I’m warning you, the police are monitoring him. It is definitely not a good thing for you to get too close to him.”
“Oh? What did he do that deserves your police’s attention?”
Dong Xiaoye knew that I wanted to trick her into telling me the information I wanted to know, but she still said, “It has something to do with Xu Heng’s case…”
