He quickly ran to his brother’s bed and looked up at him. His small face was filled with concern and worry.
“Brother, how do you feel?”
Fang Zicheng looked at his brother’s concerned and worried face. When he heard his concern, he felt relieved. He stared at Fang Zikai’s wet eyes. This fellow looked like he was about to cry again. His eyes were like a rabbit’s and he looked aggrieved.
He thought that he might never see such a pair of eyes again. He could not bear to see them staring at him with sincere concern. Therefore, the second he jumped into the lake, he did not hesitate.
“I’m alright.” Fang Zicheng replied to Fang Zikai’s question.
Fang Zikai thought that Fang Zicheng was patronizing him.
He grabbed Fang Zicheng’s hand.
Fang Zicheng raised his eyebrows and felt that this action was especially mushy. He was not used to it and wanted to pull his hand out, but Fang Zikai held it even more tightly. He looked at the hand in front of him and said, “Brother, thank you.”
Fang Zicheng’s expression was cold and indifferent as he nodded calmly.
Fang Zikai added, “You saved my life! From now on, we’re as close as blood brothers. In the future, you can look for me if you need anything. I’ll do anything!”
He had watched too many ancient martial arts dramas. Fang Zikai could say many martial arts phrases.
Fang Zicheng pulled his hand out forcefully. He held his forehead helplessly and said to Fang Yusheng, “Dad, ask Grandpa and Grandma to leave. I’m tired. Tell Kai Kai to shut up.”
Fang Yusheng had been laughing secretly. Seeing that his elder son was starting to despise Fang Zikai again, he was not angry. Instead, he felt that this was how it should be.
Their two sons’ daily lives were as follows: Fang Zikai provoked Fang Zicheng and was despised by Fang Zicheng. Fang Zikai fawned over Fang Zicheng and was despised by Fang Zicheng. Fang Zikai was afraid of Fang Zicheng and would also be despised by Fang Zicheng.
In short, Fang Zicheng’s attitude towards Fang Zikai was mostly disdain.
Fang Yusheng received his elder son’s pleading gaze and could not leave him in the lurch.
He asked the others to go back first before saying to Fang Zikai, “Brother is not feeling well. The doctor said that he needs to rest quietly. Since you’re in the same room, you can’t make a fuss or play games loudly, okay?”
At the thought that his brother had saved his life, Fang Zikai could not say no.
He nodded vigorously. After sending Fang Yusheng off, he closed the door gently. Then, he obediently walked to the bed, took off his shoes, and climbed up. Their beds were not far away. Fang Zicheng lay on the bed with his back facing Fang Zikai.
Fang Zikai sat on the bed and played alone for a while.
When Fang Zicheng was about to fall asleep again, Fang Zikai thanked Fang Zicheng softly. Fang Zicheng was not asleep to begin with. When he heard his brother’s words, he opened his eyes and stared at the white tiles and white wall.
Fang Zicheng slept for a while. When he woke up, it was almost dark.
There was a pillow in his hand, and beside him stood Qi Bufan. Fang Yusheng wanted to take care of Qiao Jiusheng personally, but he could not split himself into two, so he asked Qi Bufan to come to the pediatrics department to take care of the Fang brothers.
Qi Bufan sat on the stool, paying attention to the remaining amount of IV drip above Fang Zicheng’s head as he watched the sequel on his phone.
The effect of the medicine was a little strong. Even though it was being injected very slowly, Fang Zicheng’s arm was still cold and a little painful. Qi Bufan saw that he was frowning and asked him, “Cheng Cheng, are you feeling unwell?”
Fang Zicheng said, “My arm is cold and painful.”
“It’s all like this. I’ll use a hot towel to wipe you.” Qi Bufan turned off the television and took a small basin to get water. He patiently wiped Fang Zicheng’s body.
When Fang Zikai woke up, Qi Bufan had already finished applying the hot compress to Fang Zicheng. “Brother, does it hurt a lot?”
Fang Zicheng told the truth. He nodded and said, “It’s as if a piece of ice was stuffed in my blood and hidden under my skin. It’s especially uncomfortable.”
Fang Zikai did not reply. He lowered his eyes with a hint of sadness in them. His brother was the only person who jumped into the lake to save him. Other than his parents, his brother was the person who treated him the best.
Seeing that his brother was feeling terrible, Fang Zikai also felt terrible. In order to distract themselves, the brothers found a topic to talk about.
Fang Zicheng asked Fang Zikai why he fell into the lake.
At the mention of this, Fang Zikai felt disgusted. “That Lin Xiong lifted one of my feet and deliberately threw me into the lake.”
The truth was similar to what Fang Zicheng had thought. The only thing he did not expect was that Fang Zikai’s posture when he fell into the water would be so strange. He could not imagine Fang Zikai being lifted by one leg and thrown into the lake.
“Lin Xiong is going to be unlucky this time,” Fang Zikai said.
Fang Zicheng did not agree with Fang Zikai, but he agreed with his opinion.
The two of them chatted for a while before Fang Yusheng appeared at the door. Qiao Jiusheng had already fallen asleep. He was worried about the children, so he ran up to take a look. Qi Bufan still had something on at the training base, so when he saw Fang Yusheng, he stood up.
“Sir, there are still some things to do at the training base. I’ll go back first. I’ll come back tonight, okay?”
Fang Yusheng said, “Hurry up and go. You don’t have to come over tonight.”
“Okay.”
Before Qi Bufan left, he went to see Qiao Jiusheng. Qiao Jiusheng was indeed asleep, but the moment Qi Bufan pushed the door open, Qiao Jiusheng still woke up. She was in an unfamiliar place and could not sleep at all. Any movement could disturb her.
Qi Bufan told Qiao Jiusheng about the two little fellows’ situation. After confirming that Qiao Jiusheng was fine, Qi Bufan prepared to go back.
He took the elevator downstairs and arrived at the first floor of the Inpatient Department building. Qi Bufan walked out of the elevator quickly and noticed that there were quite a lot of people in the hall today.
Those people gathered in groups of two or three and whispered to each other, as if they were discussing something very interesting.
Qi Bufan walked out without looking sideways. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw that the door was also surrounded by people. These people were all looking up at the stairs. Most of the onlookers were filled with worry. Young people were taking photos with their phones, and a few bastards were shouting—
“Are you jumping or not? You have to jump faster. We’re about to go to evening self-study!”
Qi Bufan looked at the young man who spoke and thought sadly, “These children are really hopeless.”
Qi Bufan finally knew what had happened. He looked up at the roof.
The hospitalization department was more than ten stories tall. Qi Bufan looked up and saw a pair of legs hanging from the roof. Those hands were swaying as if they were very relaxed. Qi Bufan narrowed his eyes and seriously sized up the woman who was about to jump off the building.
The woman was not going to jump off the building alone. She was carrying a baby.
Qi Bufan frowned tightly.
Was she a pregnant woman?
Just as he was wondering, two more people rushed out of the hall of the hospital building like crazy and looked up to persuade the woman who wanted to jump off the building. Only then did Qi Bufan notice that it was a man and a woman. The woman was older, and there was a hint of worry and panic on her wrinkled face. The man behind her looked to be in his forties and was wearing a suit. He was calm.
They might be mother and daughter.
The old woman shouted upstairs, “Ah Hui! Hurry up and retreat. Don’t take it too hard!” The old woman was really a little anxious. She was so anxious that her eyes were red.
“Ah Hui, don’t take it too hard. If you’re tired from taking care of the child and are in a bad mood because of it, don’t jump off the building! How about this? Mom will take care of the child for you. Mom won’t dare to do anything. I’ll stay at home and focus on taking care of the child for you.”
