The light from the hospital's thin and long lamp tubes was still strong, shining on Jiang Xun's head and hands, making the white gauze look whiter and the black hair even blacker.

Duan Yanzhe occasionally glanced at him from the corner of his eye, but his main attention was still on Shu Jingyao.

Only then did Shu Jingyao notice that the corners of Duan Yanzhe's mouth were also swollen, and she dared not speak when she wanted to ask.

She opened her mouth, not knowing where to start the conversation, and finally pointed at Jiang Xun, stammering, "I'm at the same table... because of me, I was beaten."

Jiang Xun looked away from Shu Jingyao in surprise, and turned to Duan Yanzhe: "This is my own business, it has nothing to do with her."

"..."

Jiang Xun pursed his lips: "Thank you, but I can solve my own problems by myself, so I don't need to bother others. I have to go home for dinner."

After he finished speaking, his eyes flashed aside, and he turned to leave.

Seeing that he was not cooperating at all, Shu Jingyao stomped her feet anxiously: "Ding Nan said it all, he called you just now, and I heard it!"

She grabbed the hem of Jiang Xun's clothes and looked at Duan Yanzhe: "My deskmate is being beaten because of me... That person is a bastard... What should I do if my deskmate's life is in danger? I even broke his head before." , Lawyer Duan, can you help us?"

Duan Yanzhe walked up to Jiang Xun and looked down at the wound hidden in his hair.

He tried to stretch out his hand to push Jiang Xun's hair away, Jiang Xun immediately took a step back and stared at him,

Duan Yanzhe could only smile back: "Let me see the wound on your head."

"..." Jiang Xun raised his hand and pushed all his hair up, and said embarrassingly, "I want to help Shu Jingyao for you."

As he spoke, his eyelashes fluttered up and down slightly. Duan Yanzhe could see the top of his head from his eyelashes, but there was a spot on his forehead that was slightly pink. It should be a minor scratch and healed soon.

Duan Yanzhe remained calm, he was completely sober from the wine, his mind was clear, and he felt funny in his heart.Whether it's the fuss over Shu Jingyao, or the children's talk about Jiang Xun.

Also, for two high school students, it is not surprising that they exaggerate the problem, all he can do is appease appropriately.

As Jiang Xun put his hand down, he asked, "Who is this Ding Nan? Who is he troublesome of you?"

"his--!"

"her--"

After the two spoke in unison, they both froze and glanced at each other.

Duan Yanzhe didn't expect: "What do you mean, who are you looking for?"

"Jiang Xun."

"..."

Jiang Xun stopped talking, but Shu Jingyao was very excited and took a step forward: "He was with me, I..."

She spoke intermittently, and Jiang Xun's cell phone rang on the way, and he walked aside.

"Jiang Xun wanted to help me, so he didn't like Jiang Xun. Ever since my dad picked me up from school, he stopped looking for me. I thought he had figured it out. It turned out that he just shifted his target to Jiang Xun."

Shu Jingyao's ins and outs were confused, and finally Duan Yanzhe finally figured out what was going on, and couldn't help but pat her on the shoulder: "If this is the case, you can explain it to him. If it doesn't work, you can also find his teacher. Jiang According to this degree of injury, it is not serious, the boy is very strong, if you really do it, the consequences will not be so simple."

Shu Jingyao was silent for a while: "So, you mean there is nothing you can do now?"

Duan Yanzhe smiled: "You can ask Jiang Xun's father to pick up Jiang Xun. It's not impossible. At this level, you can only find a way with teachers, parents or the school. I'm afraid I can't help you."

When Jiang Xun came back after making the call, he saw Duan Yanzhe wobbly returning to his seat. He took out his cell phone and looked at it, and said, "It's getting late, you two must be hungry, or I'll take you with you." Are you two going to have dinner?"

Just as Jiang Xun wanted to say no, Shu Jingyao suddenly said, "Lawyer Duan, is it because Ding Nan's father is Ding Haoyi?"

Duan Yanzhe originally had a smile on his face, but now he couldn't hold on to that smile. He who was expressionless, for some reason, showed a little fierceness.

"Xiao Yao, what do you mean by that?"

Shu Jingyao's face turned pale, and she took a step forward, her voice trembling: "There is a girl at the same level in our school. Because she was bullied by Ding Nan, she has to transfer to another school. She can't even study here."

Seeing what she said, Jiang Xun was filled with righteous indignation, and grabbed her schoolbag, trying to stop the tense atmosphere.

"Hehe——" Duan Yanzhe chuckled. After he put away his politeness and friendliness, he turned into an adult, the way a business-like lawyer should be. He even took out his business card holder and took out two cards from inside. The business card was handed to them.

"Then wait until either of you can't go to school, let your parents come to the institute for consultation, maybe at that time, we can provide a little help."

Jiang Xun was not surprised by this result, but it seemed that Shu Jingyao never expected to run into this wall. After getting on the subway, she grabbed the handrail with a serious expression.

Jiang Xun couldn't help asking: "Are you familiar with him? Your dad is familiar with him?"

"I thought." Shu Jingyao's lips were drawn into a line.

At the beginning of eight o'clock, Zheng Ruochen's wife came to take him home. When she saw Duan Yanzhe, she complained and felt guilty at the same time, but she didn't know what to say for a while.

It was Duan Yanzhe who said hello first: "Hi sister-in-law."

Zheng Ruochen's wife nodded: "Is Old Zheng okay?"

"No big problem, just a little skin trauma."

Zheng Ruochen's wife was relieved at this moment, her eyes were red: "Tell me, I told him to drink less outside, he won't listen, he will cause trouble—" She was in the middle of speaking, suddenly stuck, looking Looking at Duan Yanzhe, he felt that what he said might not be right.

Duan Yanzhe said: "It's mainly my problem. That person came after me. Old Zheng was injured for no reason, and it's because of me."

Zheng Ruochen's wife looked distressed: "Yanzhe, your lawyers are really high-risk professions. Your family is still doing this. It's really hard work. In this world, everyone thinks they are justified. You won the defense. The other party is looking for you. You, you lost the defense, and the agent wants to find you, it's better to just do non-complaints."

Duan Yanzhe nodded with a smile: "Sister-in-law, then you and Lao Zheng go back first, and I will come to see him in two days."

After sending Zheng Ruochen and his wife away, Duan Yanzhe could no longer hide his exhaustion. He first squatted on the side of the road and smoked a cigarette, then turned into the 7-11 next to him, bought a few strings of Kanto boiled rice and a cup of coffee, and filled it casually. Fill your belly.

He was gnawing on a bunch of flower stick pills without taste, when the phone rang.

As soon as the connection was made, Duan Xingyue's voice came from the opposite side: "I heard that you have made great achievements. The lawyer beat someone, and you were the family member of the other party in the case you represented. It's quite okay."

The meatball was very chewy, Duan Yanzhe chewed it so badly that his teeth ached, and all the anger that had been suppressed for a day rushed to the top of his head: "What's wrong with yin and yang? He rushed up to fight with me without asking any questions, and even brought a few people to kill the old man. Zheng and the others beat them all up. What about you? Take out the red book and teach him the law?"

Duan Xingyue sighed: "Where are you? Liao Xue came to eat at home tonight."

It was clear that Duan Xing could not see more, but Duan Yanzhe still realized that something was wrong, and involuntarily stood up from the curb, not as carefree as before.

He threw the paper cup into the trash can, and the irritability in his heart didn't ease in the slightest: "Come as soon as you come, as if she only knows me."

"Hey, people love to talk to you. If you don't come back, you probably won't be able to leave for a while."

"...Okay, I see." Duan Yanzhe smacked his lips inwardly, hung up the phone, and walked to his car.

When Jiang Xun arrived at the door of the house, he forcibly took off his school uniform and put it on his right arm, pretending to be safe and sound.

Aunt Zhang opened the door and saw him dressed up in June on a December day, and there was something wrong with him: "Why did you take off your school uniform, isn't it cold?"

"Hot." Jiang Xun lowered his head, "I'll go upstairs first."

"Wait—!" Seeing that he forgot to change his shoes, Aunt Zhang wanted to rush into the room, "Let me see yours... Whoops! Who hit you?!"

Ding Nan's fist was not light, and the marks were clearly on Jiang Xun's face. Aunt Zhang turned around in a hurry, and said to Jiang Shao'an who was watching TV in the living room: "Sir, Xiao Xun is injured."

When Jiang Shaoan heard this, he came over in a hurry, stopped Jiang Xun at the door, and looked carefully at his face: "What's going on?"

Jiang Xun said, "I touched it accidentally."

"Nonsense!" Jiang Shaoan tugged at his school uniform, and Jiang Xun immediately snorted.

His hand hurt badly. The moment the school uniform fell on the floor, Jiang Shaoan also saw Jiang Xun's right hand clearly. He suddenly opened his eyes wide, and his tone changed from anxious to serious: "Who hit you?"

Jiang Xun also looked at him with calm eyes: "No one."

Then he turned sideways, trying to squeeze through the gap between Jiang Shaoan and Aunt Zhang.

Jiang Shaoan couldn't understand why it took so much effort to communicate with him, and he was anxious: "Why are you talking nonsense with your eyes open? It's so good, no one can make your hands and face like this?"

Jiang Xun turned to look at him, and said quietly, "Do you really want to know?"

"I want to know, you say! I don't believe you can say some shocking name that makes me prefer to pretend to be deaf and dumb!"

"Ding Nan."

"..." It was extremely quiet for a moment, Jiang Shaoan seemed unable to react, his brows were locked, and his eyes were somewhat confused and puzzled, "Aren't you two reconciled?"

Jiang Xun didn't think the word reconciliation could be applied to him and Ding Nan.

They were strangers to each other before, but now they have a lot of grievances, they are not worthy to talk about reconciliation, and they look down on reconciliation with each other.

He gently pushed Jiang Shaoan away, this time it was so easy: "I'm entering the house."

He turned on the light, put his schoolbag on the seat, turned around and fell on the bed, his eyes open in a daze.

He turned a deaf ear to the hungry gurgling protest, and felt a powerless hatred in his heart, but he didn't know who to hate.

About half an hour later, Jiang Shaoan came in with food, and tiptoedly sat beside Jiang Xun: "Does your hand still hurt?"

"..." Jiang Xun said nothing.

Jiang Shaoan was a little embarrassed, but he continued to ask: "Didn't you say that you are an activity of the Model United Nations today?"

Jiang Xun suddenly turned upside down: "Father, do you really want to do this business with Ding Haoyi?"

Jiang Shaoan's smile froze, and he pursed his lips: "I'm going to give Brother Ding money this Friday, and now I suddenly don't do this business, won't I offend him?"

"..." Jiang Xun looked at him, "So, he is more important than your son?"

Jiang Shaoan looked into Jiang Xun's eyes, black and white unique to young people: "You are important, it is because you are important, I think we can live a better life, so I swallow my breath like this."

"..."

"I know, you think I'm just patronizing to make money now, but if I spend all this time with you, I can't leave you with anything in the future, and you will still blame me."
