5 Misunderstanding! Family Member wants to punish the Rescuer!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chen Yeliang was taken to the hospital in a police car.

Due to the special nature of police work, the police typically dropped by the hospital every few days, so the hospital created an exclusive passage for them.

As a life-saving hero, Chen Yeliang could naturally enjoy the one-on-one medical attention of a specialist without having to queue.

"What did you say happened to him?" The slightly balding doctor pushed his presbyopic glasses up his nose and stared at Chen Yeliang gravely.

"I said that he just fell from a 5-storey high building and landed on a tree," the police officer explained.

The old doctor widened his eyes in disbelief as he sized up Chen Yeliang several times. Finally, he picked up his pen and wrote down a long list of tests on the diagnosis sheet.

Then, he called the nurse over and instructed,

"Arrange for him to be hospitalized first. He would have suffered a major impact when he fell off the building. Outwardly, he may look fine, but he may be suffering from internal hemorrhaging. Send him for a CT scan first."

The nurse efficiently took the documents and led them to the Medical Imaging Department.

Chen Yeliang scratched his face and said, "Actually, I don't think there's any problem with me. I don't need to go for CT scans or stay in the hospital."

"That won't do!" the policeman said sternly. "Don't take advantage of the fact that you're young and healthy. You still have to listen to the doctor."

After hearing what the police officer said, Chen Yeliang did not protest anymore and could only follow the nurse to go through all the tests.

It was almost evening by the time all the tests assigned by the doctor were done.

The nurse brought them to the designated hospital bed.

"I'll send the results to the doctor later. If there's any problem, he'll come and see you," the nurse said without looking up as she scribbled busily on the medical record.

"Thank you, nurse," the police officer said politely.

While undergoing the tests, Chen Yeliang chatted with this police officer who had been accompanying him, and found out that his surname was Zhao.

Now, Officer Zhao had effectively become Chen Yeliang's guardian. He listened to the nurse's instructions and nodded from time to time.

The nurse spoke for two minutes before looking up and said to Chen Yeliang, "There are no other matters for the time being. Have a good rest."

Seeing that she was about to leave, Chen Yeliang called out to her, "Excuse me, may I ask how the girl with the surname Lan is doing?"

"She's still undergoing a checkup. If all goes well, she'll be transferred to your ward."

With that, the nurse closed the door and left.

Only Chen Yeliang and Officer Zhao were left in the silent ward.

After spending half of the afternoon together, the two of them were already familiar with each other, so Chen Yeliang did not feel awkward. He laid down on the bed and covered himself with a blanket.

Officer Zhao took out a pen and dragged a chair to sit down, preparing to ask questions.

He started off by chatting casually. "You said that the girl you saved has the surname Lan?"

"That's right." Chen Yeliang nodded. "What happened to her?"

Officer Zhao smiled. "Oh, nothing. Just thought what a coincidence. How are you feeling? Are you able to answer questions?"

"Sure."

Chen Yeliang nodded again. He really felt that he was fine.

After all, the system was in operation here. Before the 72 hours expired, he would still be alive and well.

Officer Zhao cleared his throat. "Let's start then. Is the man you arrested today connected in anyway to the suicide attempt?"

Chen Yeliang answered, "Yes, he took obscene voyeuristic photos of that girl and even threatened her to be his girlfriend. My school mate was very upset and headed for the rooftop."

"How did you know? Are you acquainted with the girl?"

"I don't know her. I had an argument with the lecturer in class today and happened to see her on the roof when I was skipping class."

Speaking of this, Chen Yeliang felt a little remorseful. If he had known that he could continue living, he wouldn't have mocked lecturer He Ming.

Hearing Chen Yeliang's answer, Officer Zhao was stunned for a moment. He asked in surprise, "You don't know each other?"

At that time, when Officer Zhao stood below watching Chen Yeliang jump down without a care for himself, even in the midst of panic he silently extolled the heroism ensuing from the passionate love between young people.

But what he did not expect was that these two people did not know each other at all! In that case Chen Yeliang's selfless act was true courage!

Officer Zhao looked at Chen Yeliang with respect in his eyes, and involuntarily straightened his back.

Just as he was about to continue asking, a man pushed a wheelchair into the room.

Lan Sixi was sitting in that wheelchair with a soft blanket covering her lap. Although she still had not recovered from the ordeal, her complexion was much rosier than when she was on the rooftop.

Lan Sixi did not expect to see anyone in the ward. When she saw Chen Yeliang, she was moved to tears once more.

Seeing this, the man behind her tenderly squatted down beside her.

"What's wrong, my dear Sixi? Why are you crying again?" the man asked gently. "What's wrong? Tell Daddy."

Chen Yeliang got up, wanting to check on her, but the police officer beside him suddenly shot up and stood at attention.

Officer Zhao clicked his heels in a salute and barked out, "Good evening, Deputy Chief!"

At this moment, Chen Yeliang finally noticed the police uniform hanging on the wheelchair.

His heart skipped a beat. He had only heard that Lan Sixi's father was a deputy chief. He did not expect him to be the Deputy Chief of Police—Lan Penghao!

Lan Penghao thought his daughter was alarmed by the people in the room when he saw her crying.

Although public hospitals did not strictly segregate male and female patients in different wards, as a father he was still displeased when he saw his daughter would be warded together with a boy around the same age as her.

He asked Officer Zhao gruffly, "Officer Zhao, why are you here?"

"I…" Officer Zhao turned to look at Chen Yeliang, not knowing how to introduce him to the Deputy Chief.

Chen Yeliang lifted the blanket and stood up. He smiled and said, "Hello Deputy Chief Lan, I'm Lan Sixi's school mate."

"School mate?" Lan Penghao raised his eyebrows and looked down at his weeping daughter.

He had rushed over when he heard that his daughter had fallen off a building with a male classmate. Lan Sixi had not been in good spirits, so he had not had the time to ask her for details.

However, based on Lan Sixi's past experience of getting harassed, Lan Penghao's first thought was that his daughter falling off the building had something to do with this man!

His face then darkened and he snorted. "You're the one who hurt my dear Sixi?"

"Ah?" Chen Yeliang was caught off guard.

He had heard that Deputy Chief Lan was swift and decisive, but he didn't expect him to be so direct. If he didn't explain it well, the consequences would be unthinkable!

Chen Yeliang waved his hands frantically. "No, you've misunderstood…"

"Misunderstanding!" Lan Penghao stepped forward ominously. "Then why does my dear Sixi cry the moment she sees you!"

So saying, he started rolling up his sleeves. He did not want to hear Chen Yeliang's explanation at all.

Lan Penghao might be the deputy police chief, but he was also a father. Seeing his daughter bullied by a bad guy, all the blood in his body rushed to his head. Even though he was in an eminent position of authority, he still wanted to thrash this scoundrel personally!

Officer Zhao saw that the situation was escalating out of control and quickly stepped in front of Chen Yeliang. "Deputy Chief, this is the hospital, please don't…"

"Get out of the way!" Lan Penghao glared at Chen Yeliang like an enraged lion that couldn't wait to gobble him up.

He wouldn't listen to anyone's explanation. His own guilt towards Lan Sixi transformed into rage. He could no longer suppress his emotions.

What he wanted to do now was to seek justice for his daughter!
