Chapter 70 Despicable and vile
In a private consultation room.
A young man sat in a wheelchair, his head slightly lowered.
He looked unusually thin, even somewhat lifeless.
The power cord wrapped in an insulating sheath was connected to a machine with flashing indicator lights behind him.
Sitting opposite him was a blond foreigner holding a notepad, occasionally looking down and writing something.
Even Wen Shu couldn't help but feel a tightness in his fingertips.
She turned to Li Jiangyan beside her and asked, "Where is this?"
"The one receiving treatment and sitting in a wheelchair is your younger brother, Qiao Shen."
Li Jiangyan spoke without any preamble, his tone as flat as if stating a pre-established fact.
He knew that Wen Shuyi also needed time to process this, but he had to say it.
He must lay everything he knows out in front of her.
"He's undergoing a completely new treatment. Electroshock, hypnosis, and... all sorts of methods you probably can't even imagine."
Wen Shuyi was stunned.
Her brother?
What's her brother doing here?
How could it be like this?
"My brother? What happened to him? Why is he undergoing this... treatment?"
She had just come to terms with the fact that she was twenty-eight years old.
And she was forced to accept that her younger brother was being treated in a strange way.
But in her eyes, this didn't seem like treatment at all.
The cold instruments, the stiff postures, and the faint sense of anxiety in the air felt more like a form of torture.
Just as she saw and heard the next second.
It was Qiao Shen's agonizing scream.
This confirmed her fear.
Wen Shuyi trembled, her mind going blank.
She grabbed Li Jiangyan's arm violently, her nails almost digging into his white coat: "What are they doing? Why is he in pain? Li Jiangyan! Tell me, why are they doing this to him?"
Li Jiangyan frowned slightly. "The treatment process is sometimes like this."
"Who made him undergo this treatment? Was it you?"
Wen Shuyi pushed Li Jiangyan aside, and leaning on her cane, she stumbled to the door of the consultation room, pounding on the heavy door with all her might, "Open the door! Open the door! Let me in! Qiao Shen! Qiao Shen..."
The people inside did not respond to her cries and thrashing.
It seems that everything is completely unrelated to the people outside.
Li Jiangyan pulled her away from the door and led her to an office not far away.
He pressed his hands on Wen Shuyi's trembling shoulders, trying to calm her down.
"Listen to me, Shu Yi," he lowered his voice, his pace quickening, "Your brother has already had surgery. Theoretically, this intensive treatment is completely unnecessary. It was Sheng Tingwang, it was Sheng Tingwang who insisted on giving him this. I'm a doctor, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that this excessive, highly stimulating treatment will only worsen Qiao Shen's condition, do you understand?"
Wen Shuyi shook her head desperately, her face blurred with tears.
She didn't understand; she understood nothing.
She didn't know who Sheng Tingwang was; she only knew that her younger brother was suffering inside.
"Tell me... how can I take my brother away?" She grabbed Li Jiangyan's sleeve as if it were the last straw, her voice broken and desperate. "Please, tell me, Li Jiangyan... what should I do?"
Li Jiangyan looked at her and slowly shook his head. "This matter is not up to me. This is Sheng Tingwang... You don't know who Sheng Tingwang is, do you? He is Lu Ji. He's the one who insisted that Qiao Shen accept all of this. If you want to take your brother away, I'm afraid... you'll have to go to him."
Lu Ji.
It's him?
He was the one who harmed her brother.
But why?
"Do I have a blood feud with him? Or is there some conflict between my family and him, or something else?"
Li Jiangyan was a man, and he could roughly guess what Sheng Tingwang was thinking. "Shuyi, you and him do have a lot of stories. Go ask him. If he is sincere, he will definitely tell you clearly. But... you have been awake for so long, and he doesn't seem to have told you anything about your memory loss. He must have other thoughts in his mind."
Wen Shu also couldn't understand.
I can't understand a word of it.
What are your thoughts?
Even if you have any ideas.
He also has no right to make her brother suffer such inhuman torment here.
fraud.
It turns out he was a fraud.
He even gave her a fake name.
His name is Sheng Tingwang.
It wasn't Lu Ji at all.
He even disguised himself as a kind person who adopted her.
……
When Sheng Ting came to fetch Wen Shuyi to go home.
The person is not in the hospital.
The nurse said that she and Li Jiangyan went out and never came back.
The man's heart skipped a beat.
It was as if they had a premonition of something.
Without a moment's hesitation.
I went directly to Li Jiangyan.
Li Jiangyan was just about to leave work.
Sheng Tingwang stopped him, asking, "Where is Wen Shuyi?"
"Didn't she go home? If she didn't go home..." Li Jiangyan said casually as he changed his clothes, "...she saw Qiao Shen receiving treatment and was a bit upset. She probably went somewhere to process it."
Sheng Tingwang: ...
Hearing this made him want to kill someone.
Given Wen Shuyi's current condition, she is unable to walk properly and doesn't even know her own age. What was Li Jiangyan thinking, to provoke her like this?
Raise your hand.
Sheng Tingwang grabbed Li Jiangyan by the collar and dragged him out of the office.
"What heart are you pressing?"
"I'd like to ask you what you're up to?" Li Jiangyan shoved Sheng Tingwang's hand away abruptly. "It's true she's lost her memory, but she's not stupid. You're not telling her anything, are you trying to make her foolishly continue dating you? Despicable, filthy."
"Am I despicable? Am I vile?"
For patients like Wen Shuyi.
Would it do her any good to see her brother undergoing such treatment?
Did Li Jiangyan have any selfish motives in doing such a thing?
"Li Jiangyan, do you want her to hate me, and then fall in love with you?"
This is somewhat ridiculous.
"I didn't think that way. I just don't want Wen Shuyi to be kept in the dark. She has the right to know what's in the part of her memory that she lost, and she has an even greater right to know the things you did to hurt her."
Li Jiangyan's goal was simple: "I just want to show her your true colors and let her choose whether to stay or leave. Isn't that right?"
Sheng Ting laughed idly.
The smile didn't reach his eyes.
Mockery, disdain, and even a touch of ruthlessness.
His appearance is certainly not pleasant now.
Even if she's not good-looking, can she be worse than the doctor in front of her who saves lives?
In an instant, the cane, held tightly by slender fingers, was swung out.
Swift.
Sharp.
Unreserved ruthlessness.
Before Li Jiangyan could even react, a gash was violently torn open on his face.
There were even sounds of bones dislocating.
Amidst cries of agony.
Every punch lands squarely.
Under the ribs.
Cheekbones.
There's nothing fancy about it, just the most primitive and brutal stuff.
In the past, Sheng Tingwang had fought enemies with his bare hands.
Hit a doctor...
That's a waste of talent.
Li Jiangyan staggered backward, his glasses flying off and shattering on the ground.
Blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and his cheek swelled up rapidly.
Embarrassed.
Curled up.
Groaning in pain.
Li Jiangyan wiped the blood from his nose and lips, and mocked Sheng Tingwang, "What else do you have besides your fists? You think you're so great just because you were a soldier? If you're so capable, go ahead and kill me. Otherwise, I'll tell Wen Shuyi everything you've done, one by one, word by word."
