"Damn it, Senior Brother Zhang, are you deaf? We've been calling you outside for a week, and you didn't open the door? Waiting in the yard? What were you thinking..."

Hearing this, Wang Defa became extremely angry and his tone suddenly became stern.

But Li Xiangnan touched his knee and signaled in his ear.

Wang De gave him a white look, followed his gaze and was stunned.

There were traces of dark yellow pus flowing out from under one of Zhang Zhisheng's ears, while the other ear was intact.

Wang Defa, extremely surprised, stood up quietly and took two steps, came to Zhang Zhisheng's side and looked at him for a few times. The more he looked, the more frightened he became. When he looked into the other's eyes again, his brows furrowed tightly.

Qin Ruobai looked at him like this, and when he came over and sat down uneasy, he asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, Fatty?"

Wang Defa pondered for a few seconds, shook his head and guessed: "It should be damaged along with his eyes. He only has one good ear, so he may not be able to distinguish the direction of the sound very well..."

As if answering him, Zhang Zhisheng smiled bitterly and said, "Have you been here? Are you knocking on the front door? Why do I sound like it's from next door?"

Li Xiangnan smiled at him, then realized that the other party couldn't see him, so he said, "It's okay, Senior Brother Zhang, please continue! You said Jingyang went out to find medicine for you? Could it be medicine for your eyes? What happened to your eyes?"

Out of respect, Li Xiangnan did not attack directly nor get close. He kept observing the other person's face and analyzing the condition of Zhang Zhisheng's eyes in his mind.

"Yes, Jingyang went out to find eye drops for me! A month ago, I remember one morning, Jingyang went out to buy breakfast early! He is not very good at cooking, and I don't care about these details of eating and drinking, but that day, I got up very early because there was an art exhibition at the Imperial College that day, and we applied for a booth there!"

Li Xiangnan and the others looked at each other and suppressed the doubts in their hearts.

"Our booth is the largest. My junior and I have been preparing for a long time. We have also sorted out some of my father's humble works as the main works, and Jingyang and I's paintings will be exhibited together as foils!"

"If this exhibition has a good impact, our reputation will definitely increase significantly, and we will be able to successfully join the Artists Association. Then we can get a letter of introduction, gain a foothold, and hold exhibitions all over the country!"

"But that morning, just as Jingyang and I were happily looking forward to the future, something went wrong!"

"When I was washing my face, I didn't notice anything unusual in the basin. In that instant, I threw my face into the water, and the water immediately seeped into my eyes. It hurt so much that it was heart-wrenching. My eyes felt like they were pierced by a sword at that moment. The pain almost made me faint..."

"Ah?" Xu Qiluo huddled behind his master, frightened and disturbed by this experience.

“There’s something wrong with that water!”

But Qin Ruobai's sensitivity made her stand up, her beautiful eyes full of anger.

"That's right!" Zhang Zhisheng covered his face and wiped the tears that overflowed from his black eye sockets. It seemed to be very painful. He kept breathing in cold air and panting for a long time before he suppressed his emotions. "There's something wrong with that basin of water! There's a big problem!"

"When I was woken up, I found that my junior brother had returned, but I could only hear his voice but could not see him. At that moment, I felt that the whole world was dark. I knew that I was blind!"

"I definitely can't attend the exhibition, and I... I, I can't see anymore. I can't paint anymore. My artistic path, my future..."

When Zhang Zhisheng said this, he couldn't control his emotions and could no longer bear the sadness in his heart, so he sobbed.

Li Xiangnan could almost foresee it.

When Zhang Jingyang came back from buying breakfast happily that day, he saw his senior brother lying in a mess. His eyes could no longer see anything, even his closest self.

How sad Jingyang must be feeling!

The beauty of life is coming soon!

But everything came to an abrupt end on that day.

From then on, Zhang Zhisheng's artistic career encountered an insurmountable chasm.

That day was definitely the darkest moment in the life of Zhang Jingyang, his junior brother.

Thinking of this, Li Xiangnan took out another cigarette and took a deep puff. The expression hidden in the smoke was extremely heavy.

He understood Zhang Jingyang's eagerness to go out and find medicine. No one could remain calm when something happened to a loved one.

Things have their priorities. Compared with the matter of Zhang Zhisheng, what does Brother Zhang’s failure to contact me in time matter?

"What the hell! Who did this?!"

Wang Defa had come back to his senses after his frozen expression. He kicked the stool away and stood up indignantly, "Senior Brother Zhang, is this your recent enemy?"

Qin Ruobai and Xu Qiluo looked at each other, both of them looked alert.

This incident was indeed strange.

"I don't know either!" Zhang Zhisheng shook his head, looking sad. It was as if the spirit that had sustained him until now had suddenly become deflated after he told Li Xiangnan and the others about his experiences. He became completely listless and extremely desperate.

Qin Ruobai came over, gently pinched Li Xiangnan's shoulder, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Li Xiangnan didn't say anything, but shook his head gently, "I'm fine!"

After nodding, Qin Ruobai sighed. Knowing that he was also feeling bad, he did not stop him from smoking quietly.

"Xiao Xu!" Qin Ruobai turned around and nodded to his colleague. They both took out their flashlights. "Brother Zhang, where did the accident happen?"

Without looking back, Zhang Zhisheng followed his memory and pointed without moving.

"I'll go take a look first!" Qin Ruobai said softly to Li Xiangnan, turned around and took Xu Qiluo into a living room, which was the location of the east wing.

Wang Defa ran to Li Xiangnan and asked for a cigarette, then smoked it fiercely. He paced back and forth for a long time before squatting in front of him, looking at him quietly without saying a word.

But Li Xiangnan understood what he meant at a glance.

He shook his head directly.

“…” Wang Defa’s face froze. He sat down on the ground, raised his hands tremblingly, and took a big sip.

He knew what Li Xiangnan meant by shaking his head.

Zhang Zhisheng's eyes are beyond saving.

It wasn't that he was doing nothing just now, he was just observing and looking around.

Especially Zhang Zhisheng's eyes, the entire lens of his eyeballs had been dissolved, leaving only two big black holes.

If it cannot be saved, it really means that Zhang Zhisheng will never be able to see his favorite painting in this life!

Thinking of this, Wang Defa felt so sad that he wanted to cry!

Zhang Zhisheng is Jingyang's senior brother. It is hard for him to imagine what would have happened if it was Brother Zhang who used that basin of water to wash his face that day!

The blind person would be Zhang Jingyang!

"Brother Li!"

At this time, Zhang Zhisheng raised his empty, lifeless face and asked tentatively: "I heard you are a doctor?"

Li Xiangnan was shocked.

If it is possible!

He wished he wasn't a doctor, so that such desperate words wouldn't come out of his mouth.

How should he answer Zhang Zhisheng? !
