Ever since the truck has been hijacked, Yuan hasn't gotten a night of sleep.
Chi led people to hijack the truck, Yuan could lecture him for that, but the main problem is that 50 over snakes 'died', plus they 'died' in the camp. Just with this, Yuan has a lesser advantage now. Whether if it's someone in the camp released the news of the dead snakes, or it's just a trap set by Chi, Yuan is in disadvantage no matter which. Yuan has no evidence for either of the theories so he could only admit defeat.
Being a commander for so many years, he has always believed in persuading people through reasoning, same goes to educating his children. Since young, the thing that Yuan has told Chi the most is: You can make mistakes, but you have to give me a damn good reason behind that mistake, if you managed to convince me, I'll believe in you and I'll forgive you.'
It was his life motto at first, but now it's a weapon used by his son to fight against him.
Take this case as an example, Yuan was wrong in the first place, no matter how bad he wanted to lecture his son, but he still needs to pay back the 50 snakes. But where does he find them? Those snakes that Chi has swapped out were all rare snake breeds, he needs to gather all those different snake breeds and return them back to Chi's hands, that's harder than telling Yuan to shut up.
What can he do?
Again, last time he confiscated Chi's snakes because someone complained about him harassing a male student. This time? What reason is available for me to take away his snakes? If he says Chi is not working, but now he's working properly in the station, he didn't resign after he got the snakes either; if he says that Chi is fooling around, but now he has a girlfriend, he also agreed to register their marriage, but in turn the girl decides to kill his snake. By observation, Chi doesn't look like he's fooling around he isn't sincere either, Yuan can only turn a blind eye to that.
What can he do then?
The worse thing is, when they're hijacking the truck, one of Chi's friend has suffered great damage, he heard that he is quite a dangerous situation. Once someone is hurt or dead, no matter what reason Yuan gives, he's embarrassed to say it even.
What else can he do then?
.............
For past few days, Chi has been staying in the ward, he hired a professional nurse, but she doesn't need to do any work, Chi has done everything in her place.
Early in the morning, the doctor came by to do a routine check, Chi was helping to roll Wu's sleeves, the doctor said rather politely, 'You can let her do such work.'
That 'her' is talking about the nurse that is standing at the side.
Chi replied sternly, 'I feel safer doing it myself.'
The nurse feels she has been indirectly attacked! Isn't it just rolling the sleeves? Why can't you let me do it? Will I dislocate his arm while rolling them? I thought this guy is quite manly, but he's so picky and particular!
Gang stepped into the ward, tapped Chi's shoulder from behind then whispered, 'You old man came.'
Chi followed him out, stood at the door and told him, 'Tell him I'm not here.'
'He saw your car.'
Chi continued, 'You just say you drove my car here.'
'My car is parked right beside yours.'
'Then you say I'm not free now.'
Gang was mildly annoyed, 'He has already come so far, it isn't good to ignore him? If you pushed him to the edge, he then will come to the ward, he is so ostentatious, the one inside will be scared, right?'
Chi glanced into the ward, Wu was hissing in pain.
Suddenly he flared up, 'How many times do I need to tell you? Lift up his backside when you guys take off his bandage, how uncomfortable will he feel if you guys make him stay in this position?'
Ever since they changed to VIP ward, every single nurse has been reprimanded by Chi before, no matter if she's young or old, Chi doesn't give chances. No one dared to speak when he speaks, it's not just about his identity, it's also about that overpowering aspect of his. He hasn't reached 30 years at age, but once he straightens his face he looks more intimidating than a 50 or 60 years old commander.
Once the nurse heard Chi's command, she quickly moved her hand up Wu's butt.
'Just let me do it!'
Chi walked back into the ward in the end and does the chores himself, his hands are huge enough to cover Wu's entire butt with one hand, they're so stable Wu felt super comfortable immediately.
Until Wu has successfully laid down in bed, everything is looking good, Chi then removed his sanitized gloves and threw them into the bin, then told Gang who was standing outside the ward, 'Take care of him, I'll go out for a while.'
Yuan has been standing outside for a ten over minutes, then Chi finally came to his front.
'How's your friend?' Yuan asked.
Chi said without any change in expression, 'Just like that.'
Although he knew Chi will be in this attitude, now he's witnessing it personally, he still feels a tad bit annoyed.
'I didn't come here to reconcile with you, we don't it either, I'll just say it clear to you. You can keep the snakes, you can resign if you want, but you have to marry her. Either you reconcile with Yue Yue, or you find another one, you need one no matter what.'
Chi replied coldly, 'You lost 50 of my snakes, I lost a daughter-in-law, isn't it fair?'
'Don't play with the words with me, I don't want to waste my time,' Yuan's tone has toughened.
'Then let's say it in another way, you pay me back my 50 snakes, I'll give you back a daughter-in-law.'
What Chi said has made Yuan absolutely furious, but he needs to make a pact with Chi, so he swallowed all the anger back.
'I can't find back your snakes, but I can pay back your money.'
Chi snickered, 'Then can I give you money instead of a daughter-in-law?'
'You....'
Chi turned and left.
Yuan's two loose molar teeth almost got ground into dust, why did he even care to come down and talk to him?
When Chi was on his way back, Gang was standing in front of the information counter in the lobby.
'Didn't I tell you to look after him? Why did you come down?' Chi asked.
Gang whispered to Chi, 'There seems to be something wrong, you see, in the past Yue Yue has always been annoyed by Jealous, but why didn't she do such things that time?'
'......'
Gang continued, 'You two have been together for almost half a year too, right? You have been on and off to her too, but she didn't do anything to your mother too! But why now she's always sticking around your mother now? With my knowledge about your mom, she may be gentle at times, but she definitely has her own opinion and her stand, how can she let some outsider scare her like that? It's obvious that someone is trying to fan the flames behind!'
'......'
Gang is getting more and more excited, 'Think again! A lot of things have been happening, first is your mother's attitude changed, then Yue Yue has plotted to harm Jealous, then she got caught red-handed by you. Don't you think those happened at a very fast pace? Don't you think there might be a reason behind it? Don't you think there's a mastermind behind all this? Don't you think that every time that person shows up at a very precise timing? You...'
'Don't you think you're a bit too talkative?' Chi suddenly interrupted Gang.
Gang suddenly stopped talking.
CHi glared at him furiously, said crudely, 'You're the only one with brains now, isn't it? You're so clear about everything, right? You have to say out everything that other is thinking about, is that so interesting?'
Gang is at loss of words.
Before leaving, Chi warned again, 'Take care of that foul mouth of yours, next time you blabber in front of me, I'll just cut you into pieces!'
.......
In the evening, Wu was bored from lying in the bed all day, so he started to murmur to himself again.
He has made the wrong move, he has placed Yu and Yue Yue together, now they have slowly become a problem to Chi. How do I destroy the image of Yue Yue in Yu? As he was thinking, suddenly he took out his wallet that was hidden under his pillow, seeing the card that Shuai has given him, an idea suddenly popped out.
Someone's coming, Wu quickly stuffed the wallet under his blanket.
Gang carried two bags full of food, those are Wu's and Chi's dinner, he placed them on the nightstand and tiptoed out of the ward.
'Gang,' Wu called out.
Gang stopped right in his tracks, he turned back and looked at Wu.
'What's wrong?'
Wu motioned Gang to come forward, something is brewing in his mind.
'I want to ask you for a favor.'
Gang walked over as told.
Wu asked, 'This job is a bit immoral, are you willing to help me?'
Can he say no? Chi just gave him a warning, everything that is illegal or immoral is all plausible when it comes to Wu. The one who is being scammed turned a blind eye to him, what else can he who knows everything say?
'Sure, say it.'
Wu motioned Gang to lean closer, the two has talked for a long time, in the eng Gang has totally understood everything, he lifted his thumb to Wu.
'Chi will belong to you forever one day.'
