Sun Jingan narrowed his eyes.
He suddenly called out to Sun Jingyu: "Jingyu!"
Sun Jingyu’s voice trembled: "Big brother."
Sun Jingan’s eyeballs seemed ready to burst as he grabbed his younger brother by the collar, eyes red: "Did you participate in his dirty deeds?"
Sun Jingyu played dumb.
Sun Jingan sneered coldly: "Still playing dumb, weren’t you just now flaunting the calligraphy and painting you received from Jitang? Hah, so refined and cultured!"
He was furious to the core.
In front of his confidants and juniors, he pulled out his belt and thrashed his younger brother fiercely.
While striking, he vented his fury.
"Find out if you’re involved, I’ll chop you up all the same!"
"Worthless trash!"
"I’ll beat you to death, you bastard!"
...
Sun Jingyu dared not retaliate or talk back, merely taking the blows until his body was marked with blood.
The skin split open and flesh burst.
A sight too horrible to endure.
Finally, Bao Jingyan spoke up: "Uncle, even if you want to hit someone, should you not consider the timing, give uncle a moment of clarity?"
Sun Jingan stopped, gasping for breath: "If I don’t get serious, he won’t spit out anything!"
Su Ruanruan was also shaken.
This uncle Bao Jingyan, truly ruthless!
It was not unjust for Sun Jingyu to be beaten.
He knelt before his elder brother, crying bitterly: "Big brother, I did nothing! I merely knew about it, but I dared not speak! How could I dare to? Jitang is the sole child of your respected teacher, of noble status, and moreover, his capability is beyond your knowledge, big brother. He started these schemes at a young age, using you as a shield to build his foundation, no one dared to defy him, nor could anyone grasp his misdemeanors! Yin Changhe, Yin Changhe is just his lackey, whenever there’s trouble, it’s always Yin Changhe who ends up clean and unlucky."
He revealed the truth, yet Sun Jingan had tears streaming down his face.
Jitang, following behind him since his teens.
Such a young child, to do such things!
Bao Jingyan murmured softly: "Uncle, now is not the time for sentimental tears!"
Sun Jingan wiped his face, he said: "Investigate United Hospital immediately! Expose all the bloodworms behind this!"
Sun Jingyu clung to his legs.
He was terrified: "Big brother, how should I explain to old Mr. He?"
Sun Jingan kicked him away.
He said coldly: "I’ll personally kneel and apologize at He Residence! As for you, don’t bother showing up!"
He had always been decisive and ruthless in his methods.
In this way, Bao Jingyan was most like him.
As outsiders, Su Ruanruan and Bao Jingyan stayed behind.
After a long silence, Bao Jingyan waved her over: "Ruanruan, come here."
Su Ruanruan walked over.
She leaned against his shoulder, whispering, "It was only after Miss Yin slit her wrists that I learned about these underlying issues! Bao Jingyan, have you been investigating matters in Yangcheng lately?"
Bao Jingyan gave a soft hum.
He quietly shared the details of Yangcheng with her.
Su Ruanruan felt bitterness in her heart; she was upset... Knowing what He Jitang had done, how heartbroken must the elder He couple be?
Yet she knew, Sun Jingan was right.
Bao Jingyan gently stroked her head.
He asked gently: "Difficult, isn’t it?"
Su Ruanruan nodded, then shook her head.
She said: "Mr. Sun had asked me to visit United Hospital initially for this very matter! I cannot ignore the lives of others due to personal feelings."
Bao Jingyan spoke again, very tenderly: "My Ruanruan has grown up well without losing her way."
His Ruanruan, who had seen the illustrious superficiality of the He family, yet never wavered from her initial convictions.
She remained the same as before, a woman who sat painting, as pure as morning dew.
The person that Bao Jingyan would entrust his heart to for a lifetime!
