Jinhai rushed to the hospital as soon as his plane touched down in Beijing. Half of his anxiety had dissipated as he came to know that Jun was free from Ouyang Haitao's clutches. The other half of his worries included Jun being admitted to a hospital because of the injuries he sustained.
He immediately recognized Xuan Hui who was standing in attention. "Hui! Jun…where is Jun?"
Xuan Hui replied. "Boss! Young master Jun, young master Jian and young master Nian are all inside with Sir Liang."
Jinhai shakily nodded his head. He was afraid to go inside, imagining the worst scenarios in his head. Xuan Hui could sense his restlessness and he immediately assured him. "Boss. Young master Jun is fine now!" He brightened. "He is already awake. Sir Liang is treating some minor injuries, that's all."
Jinhai went still and then narrowed his eyes on him. "Awake? You mean there was a point where he was unconscious?"
"We will talk about this later," he said with a rough edge to his voice.
Jinhai was about to step inside when Xuan Hui hastily said, "Boss! Don't…Please don't get angry at the twins…"
He blinked. "I know the general gist of what happened and I won't blame the twins for anything."
Xuan Hui sighed in relief.
"But they insisted on accompanying you to such a dangerous place. Instead of only one, I could have heard the news of three of my sons hurt and in danger. They are going to get an earful for that."
Jinhai opened the door to his brother-in-law, Liang Shin's office, who was treating Jun's injuries. The twins were present beside Jun, firmly holding onto his hand. His breath almost stopped in his throat, seeing Jun lying on the bed as a patient.
Liang Shin, Nana's elder brother who was an acclaimed doctor, smiled at Jinhai. "Brother-in-law. As I see, you are stressed out too much and I can already see some of your hair turning grey. You are too young to grow old at this age. You need not worry because my little nephew is all fine."
It was in that confidence that Jinhai finally released his breath. He slowly walked towards Jun and seeing the scratches on his skin, twisted his heart. But it pained even more when he saw slightly bluish marks on his neck.
His gaze went cold and so did his voice. "What happened to his neck? Had Ouyang Haitao…tried to strangle my son?"
Liang Shin saw his fingers crackling with the thirst of violence and he very well understood his emotions too. He would be the same if somebody harmed his children.
"Indeed, but it's not serious. There is no damage to any veins in his neck. He won't even have a sore throat. Right, Jun?"
Jun slowly nodded. "It doesn't hurt Dad…"
Liang Shin said, "I will leave you all alone for sometime. I know you have many things to talk to them about."
"Thank you, brother-in-law. The twins are-"
"Also fit and fine," he smiled and patted his shoulder.
As Liang Shin left, he sat beside Jun and gently held his hand. "Tell me the truth. Are you really okay?"
Jun wanted to nod a yes but soon, tears pooled in his eyes as he was unable to hide his fear. "Dad, did I…did I kill that Uncle?"
Jinhai rapidly blinked his eyelids. "Of course not. Who said that to you?"
"Oof Jun!" Jian flared his nostrils. "Didn't Nian already say that it has nothing to do with you?"
Nian nodded hard. "Little brother, I see you keep defying your elder brothers."
Jun sniffled and gasped uneasily. "B-But I heard the girl say…that I am a killer. I killed her father…"
Shit! Jun heard that? I thought he was still unconscious.
The twins hadn't expected that Jun would have listened to Zhan Yahui.
Didn't you take Jun away? How did he hear her then?
I don't know! Nian began to sweat.
Well it's true that I also had heard that girl screaming at Jian and accusing him. It was quite loud…Maybe Jun heard it then…Shit! Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novel⦿fire.net
Jinhai saw his twins fumbling and confused. He placed his palm on Jun's head and smiled. "It isn't like what you are thinking, Jun. Ouyang Haitao is okay."
The twins widened their eyes.
Jun was equally shocked, but a sense of relief washed over his heart too. "R-Really? He…he is alive?"
He smiled. "Yes. It was a simple concussion. Also, what you did was to only protect yourself. So I won't tolerate seeing you blame yourself, okay? It was Ouyang Haitao in the wrong who kidnapped you and his daughter. Uncle Shin gave you some medicine, right? You should go ahead and sleep."
He bent and kissed his forehead. "You need a lot of rest."
Jun slowly dozed off to sleep, holding onto Jinhai's hand. His lips curved into a warm smile, seeing his son safe and unharmed. He gently freed his hand from Jun's and looked at the twins. "Let's talk in another room."
The twins gulped and followed him obediently.
Are we gonna get punished…?
Jinhai took a seat on a chair and pulled them forward. "From next time on, you are directly heading home if something ever happens. You are only ten. Don't act like you are twenty."
The twins swallowed their saliva. "Yes…"
"I don't want to see you two just nodding your heads," he icily said.
They apologized simultaneously. "We won't do it again."
"Good. But you will still get an earful from Nana. I cannot do anything about that."
They bobbed their heads.
Jinhai smiled in satisfaction. "Hm. Let's go back."
The twins were dumbfounded. "Ah? The scolding part is over?"
"Is there anything else I need to scold you two for?"
Jian said, "I guess Uncle Xuan forgot to tell you the main thing."
"He didn't forget to tell me. I know everything."
Nian asked, "So why are you so calm?"
"Because I would have made the same decision as you two did. He was going to kill Jun. Naturally, he had to die," Jinhai said, unfazed. "I am proud of you two that you could take that step. I know it must feel terrifying to order someone's death. You did a fine job as responsible elder brothers. I have nothing to scold you for it."
