When Qiu Shaoping received the news from Shao Yuhan in the hospital, he felt an unprecedented anger.
It was said that Shao Ming’s biological father in A City had someone come, and that person planned to bring Shao Yujie and Shao Ming to A City.
Bring them to A City? How could he let this happen?
What kind of life he led during these 5 years when he lost his freedom? No matter how difficult it was to endure, it didn’t matter. He knew there would always be a day when he could escape. Everything that was destroyed in his life, everything that was ruined by that little brat, he would repay it all to that mother and child a hundredfold. He would ensure that their remaining days would never know peace!
But now someone told him they’re leaving, that they’re going to break free from him?
Those ungrateful shits!
Back then, that bitch had nowhere to go. It was he who took in her and the wild seed in her stomach. It was he who raised that little bastard. How could they receive something without giving in return? They have received his grace. They have to repay him.
But that whore actually disliked him and slept around with the guests in his bar! That brat didn’t know how to be grateful, so he dared to rebel against him. He even called the police to deal with him!
They aired out his flaws to the public, they made him the laughingstock of the neighborhood, they made him the target of everyone’s scorn, they made him go to prison…
He has nothing now, how can the people who harmed him live so happily?
They still wanted that brat to recognize his paternal family and go there to enjoy glory and wealth?
Delusional!
Shao Ming was raised by him as his son. If he can’t get what he wants, he won’t let anyone else get them, even if he had to destroy it!
He knew that there were people watching him in the hospital, not just the police from the police station, but others as well. He had long suspected who these people were until he received a message from Shao Yuhan. He believed Shao Yuhan’s words and firmly believed that the person watching him was arranged by Shao Ming’s biological father.
Such a responsible and considerate father.
Qiu Shaoping felt jealous. His heart’s distortion only grew.
During his two-day stay in the hospital, he had been very calm. He fooled the police and the people who were watching him to relax their vigilance. He remembered the time and place that Shao Yuhan told him. He grabbed the first opportunity and sneaked out of the hospital.
Outside the cafe, he saw a man from A City with clear arrogance displayed on his face. His eyes were full of contempt and disdain for this kind of small city.
They were so high above him, while he, at present, was like dust in the mud. How could he tolerate his own raised son climbing to a higher place than him?
Without any hint of hesitation, he wanted to drag him into hell!
However, it was destroyed by someone who suddenly rushed up.
Just who was blocking the knife for Shao Ming?
Who was the man who suddenly kicked him?
Why does everyone have to get in his way? Why is everyone against him?
Damn them all! Damn them all to hell!
Qiu Shaoping frantically wanted to get up again, but blood kept pouring out of his throat, and finally passed out from exhaustion.
In the café, the few customers stared wide-eyed at the café door, where there was a person with their back pressed against the glass door.
The person didn’t intervene to help, nor did they appear panicked or flustered. They remained aloof when Qiu Shaoping rushed out, observing with cold eyes. It wasn’t until they saw Uncle Liu appear that their pupils slightly contracted, revealing a hint of disbelief, even some fear and regret in their eyes.
He regretted not helping the situation just now.
The trace of arrogance in his face dissipated.
However, Uncle Liu was in a daze and didn’t even glance at him. He wanted to rush at Qiu Shaoping and beat him to death. At this time, someone behind him shouted, “Ming-ge, why are you standing still! Take him to the hospital!”
Shao Ming jolted back to reality. His cold and stiff limbs finally gained strength. He picked up Zhu Tong directly, and immediately rushed towards the direction of the hospital.
The man in the suit initially intended to intervene but quickly withdrew his hand, watching as the group of people ran away. His expression changed slightly, and he took out his phone to make a call.
On the way, Zhu Tong’s face was pale due to the pain. His hands were tightly clutching the fabric of Shao Ming’s shoulders.
Shao Ming felt that his heart also tightened.
He tried to speak, but his throat was so hoarse. At that moment, someone comforted him by saying softly in his ear, “I’m fine, but you…”
“…”
Shao Ming did not speak, but tightened his grip.
It may sound easy to say, but in reality, Zhu Tong is in a lot of pain!
It turned out that being slashed by a fruit knife would be so painful!
What happened to his back? Is his skin cracked open and bleeding? How ugly is that?
‘Host, your physical data is good. The injury on your back is only skin-deep. No need to worry.’
“…”
Zhu Tong was really relieved, but he was still in pain.
‘Don’t the developers of your system offer services to reduce the host’s sense of pain?’
He can only divert his attention by snarking back to the system.
The system said helplessly, ‘I apologize, we are a mission-based survival system, not a player experience system. We do not offer such service.’
Zhu Tong: “…”
But the quest reward doesn’t work either!
After his favorability surpassed 30%, he still seemed still getting sick and injured!
As Zhu Tong thought about it, Shao Ming had arrived at the hospital.
The process of finding a doctor, undressing, undergoing examination, disinfection, applying medication, and bandaging was already familiar to Zhu Tong.
It’s just that during the whole process, nobody spoke. What is happening?
‘Was this embarrassing for the doctor?’ Zhu Tong thought.
The doctor was not embarrassed. On the contrary, the doctor was very satisfied with such a “sensible and quiet” patient. Finally, he doesn’t need to hear someone screaming in his ear when he is treating the patient’s wound.
The wound was treated perfectly, and the doctor took the tray to the aisle as he said, “The wound is not deep, I’m confident the injury will be cured as long as the medicine is applied in a few short days. But your injury looks like a slash wound, how did you get hurt?”
Based on the patient’s appearance, he didn’t look like a typical gangster who likes going to fight.
Zhu Tong was silent for a while, and seeing that no one answered, he could only say to himself, “I… acted bravely in the name of justice?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the hands on his shoulders suddenly tighten.
After arriving at the hospital, Shao Ming remained silent and refused to let go of Zhu Tong. When it was time to apply medication, Zhu Tong was afraid of pain. He sat sideways on a nearby chair, looking for something to hold onto. Before he could find a suitable place, Shao Ming stood in front of him, holding onto his shoulders with both hands.
Zhu Tong was half-leaning in front of him while the process of applying medication was being done.
When he trembled from the pain thanks to the medicine, Shao Ming’s hand on his shoulder tightened.
Zhu Tong knew that he was worried, so he could only lean his forehead as much as possible.
After finally the medicine was applied, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The doctor placed the tray on a movable shelf and turned around, saying, “Acting bravely? You? You young people, it’s good to have a sense of justice, but you also need to know your limits. With your small stature, you’re like a leaf in the wind. You want to act bravely? Are you sure you aren’t sending your head instead?”
Zhu Tong: “…”
This doctor is quite trendy, and even knows the gaming term of “sending one’s head1to give your opponent easy kills (by sending your head for them to chop). The English equivalent would be “serving your head on a platter.””.
He also knew that he was a weak chicken, but at that time, if he didn’t rush up…
‘Even if you don’t block the knife for the White Moonlight, he may not be injured.’
“…”
The system directly interrupted his wild imagination.
Indeed, judging from Shao Ming’s reaction when Qiu Shaoping pounced on him, Shao Ming looked prepared. That knife attack might not even connect.
‘Wait… prepared?’
Zhu Tong suddenly felt that something was wrong. He wanted to look up, but felt a little cold.
Ah, he took his clothes off when the medicine was applied.
He turned to look at the blood-stained clothes lying aside, feeling a wave of disgust. Then, he turned to Uncle Liu and said, “Uncle, could you please go back and fetch me a set of clothes?”
Uncle Liu’s face was full of complicated emotions: self-blame, distress, and a hint of leftover anger.
After he stared at Zhu Tong for quite some time, he let out a sigh, then walked out of the room first.
With his keen eyesight, Luo Suo watched as the doctor and Uncle Liu left the consultation room one after another. Then, he turned to the door and said, “I’ll go get the medicine first. Ming-ge… you stay with him.”
“…”
The once crowded room suddenly became empty.
It might be because there were only the two of them, but Zhu Tong felt that the air pressure in the room had dropped.
Why didn’t Shao Ming speak?
What should he say now?
Just as he was feeling conflicted, a mechanical-sounding notification rang in his mind: ‘Congratulations! You gained +10% of the white moonlight’s favorability. Your current favorability is 59%.’
“!”
10%?!
Zhu Tong has always felt that the favorability level has remained at 49% for a long time because it has reached the critical point of the next stage of rewards.
Just as it usually goes in those cultivation novels: which protagonist will not encounter a bottleneck just before they break through and level up?
That’s why despite the level being stuck at 49% for quite a long time, he wasn’t anxious or discouraged.
He believed that with sincerity, even the hardest of hearts could be softened. So, he patiently waited for his favorability to surpass the 50% mark.
Now the 50% mark was broken.
Not only was it broken, but it was approaching another critical point.
Even though Zhu Tong was normally a cultured person, at this moment, he almost blurted “Fuck” out loud.
How did the favorability rise? What did he do?
Ah, he blocked the knife for Shao Ming.
Can such a knife block have a good effect?
Isn’t this development so dramatic?
Even the ethereal and otherworldly White Moonlight couldn’t escape the clichés.
Zhu Tong looked at the progress bar at the system interface. It had reached halfway point already. He blankly thought, ‘Can he come again and stab me a few more times?’
System: …
It was probably the sudden surge in favorability that gave Young Master Zhu the courage. After hanging his head for a long time, he finally lifted it up and met a face as calm as water.
“…”
Shao Ming’s current expression, if Zhu Tong had to describe it, is that his complexion doesn’t look good, but it’s not necessarily ugly. However, it gives off a sense of heaviness, like that breathless feeling before you suffocate.
Zhu Tong glanced at the favorability bar again.
The favorability level has indeed increased, but he couldn’t tell from Shao Ming’s face at all.
When will this young man be true to himself?
Why are his emotions so strange?
When Zhu Tong met his eyes, it inexplicably made him a little uneasy. Just as he was about to speak, Shao Ming looked away again.
“…”
‘There must be a bug in the system!’
‘Isn’t the favorability level has broken through the halfway point?’
While questioning, the grip on his shoulder suddenly loosened.
The warmth of the palm suddenly disappeared, and Zhu Tong quickly felt the chill creeping on his shoulders. Before he could cover himself, a coat was suddenly draped over him, wrapping his upper body, leaving only the bandaged portion exposed.
A Japanese-style collared jacket2something like this 
, a bit oversized on Zhu Tong, suddenly enveloped him with a familiar scent, fitting snugly against his body without any hindrance. He was momentarily stunned.
He was still sitting in a chair.
Shao Ming looked down at him and asked, “Can you stand up?”
Zhu Tong nodded.
His legs weren’t hurt, after all.
He stood there like a puppet, letting Shao Ming drape his own jacket over his shoulders.
The jacket also emanated Shao Ming’s body temperature.
Seeing that there was only a thin striped shirt left on Shao Ming’s body, he pondered, “Aren’t you cold?”
“…”
Shao Ming paused for a moment, did not answer him, and buttoned his jacket carefully.
Zhu Tong looked at him from a very close distance. He could even count Shao Ming’s trembling eyelashes.
But Shao Ming still didn’t lift his eyes, he simply continued to silently button up the last button on Zhu Tong’s shirt for a while before asking, “Does it hurt?”
Zhu Tong felt the wound. “The medicine on it has an analgesic effect, so it doesn’t hurt much anymore.”
It just the gauze wrapped around him gave a weird tactile sensation.
Shao Ming raised his hand again and stroked Zhu Tong’s messy bangs.
“You…” His voice was hoarse. “How did you know I was there?”
He didn’t ask Zhu Tong why he was there.
Did he follow Shao Ming? Unlikely.
Zhu Tong came in a hurry and bumped into him without thinking.
Did he see the knife in Qiu Shaoping’s hand?
Does he know what will happen if the knife stabs him in the body?
Shao Ming’s breathing was somewhat labored, and even the exchange of breath in his lungs became unusually difficult.
His mind was full of the image of that lunatic holding a knife and slashing at Zhu Tong’s back. He clearly… didn’t want to involve Zhu Tong.
Zhu Tong knew that Shao Ming would be in the cafe, the location provided by the system.
But how would he tell Shao Ming about this?
His eyes flickered. With a lowered gaze, he said, “I… I asked Uncle Liu to find someone to watch that person in the hospital.”
Shao Ming was slightly startled.
Watching Qiu Shaoping in the hospital?
“You again…”
“I didn’t want to do anything.” Before he spoke, Zhu Tong explained, “I just wanted to find someone to watch him. If he wanted to do something, we could be prepared. I didn’t expect him to run away.”
“…”
Shao Ming whispered, “Did you follow Qiu Shaoping to find me?”
Zhu Tong nodded hesitantly. “Yes.”
Shao Ming looked at him calmly, but thought in his heart: ‘He is lying.’
There’s no way he could follow Qiu Shaoping. Uncle Liu would not tell Zhu Tong about Qiu Shaoping’s whereabouts at all, and he would not put Zhu Tong in danger.
If they knew where Qiu Shaoping was, they wouldn’t have let him escape from the hospital in the first place.
Why was Zhu Tong the first to rush up when the incident happened?
He’s suspicious.
