"Ouch." Hong Nan frowned. He started to feel pain in his stomach again. It was as if numerous small insects were moving and biting inside his stomach."Move!"
"Sure, I see. You take care, " the young man with him said.
Hong Nan was sweating severely on his head. His body was shaking badly."Call the doctor!"
"Sure!" The young man who was accompanying him in the hospital quickly ran out to look for a doctor.
A doctor came a moment later.
"I started to have pain in my stomach again, " Hong Nan said as he clenched his teeth. He was in severe pain. It was worse than being stabbed an twisted by a knife."Give me some painkiller!"
"OK, just a moment." The doctor went out to get the painkiller and came back a moment later. He was followed by a nurse, who gave Hong Nan the injection.
"Oh dear!" Hong Nan took a big breath of relief.
He thought he would be pain free for a while.
"Hmm!?" The pain suddenly came back. What the hell is going on?
In the past few days, he was constantly in pain almost every day, mainly in his stomach and head. Normally, the pain would disappear after he had taken painkiller, so he could settle for a while. However, the situation was different now. The pain came back almost immediately after he had taken painkiller.
Did they give me the wrong medication?
"Call the doctor!" He was in such horrendous pain that he was like a prawn being throw into the boiling oil. He curled up. The pain in his stomach didn't get any better. On the contrary, it got worse, like tide water. The pain was intolerable.
The doctor who came to check on him was very surprised."What's going on?"
Hong Nan was not supposed to be in severe pain after being injected of painkiller.
"Give him another dose of painkiller, " the doctor said.
The nurse followed the instruction from the doctor, but it still didn't work.
"Change the medication, " the doctor said.
There were different types of painkillers. A moment later, the nurse injected a different type of painkiller into Hong Nan's body. However, the pain was still there. He was still screaming in pain on the bed.
"Can you do something? Do something!" Hong Nan shouted.
Apparently, shouting wouldn't reduce the pain.
"Give him some morphine, " the doctor said.
Despite advanced medical technology, morphine was still the most effective painkiller in the world. Morphine could basically treat any kind of pain. However, it had bad side effects. People could easily become addicted to morphine.
It worked. The pain had gone. Hong Nan was breathing hard. He needed more air.
"I need... I need oxygen, " he said.
"Give him oxygen, " the doctor said.
Meanwhile, in the same building of the same hospital, a patient was screaming in a room.
"Ouch!"
A nurse ran out of the room with a panicked expression on her face. She had blood all over her upper body. A knife was in her right shoulder. She was still bleeding.
"Ting!" Her colleagues immediately came up to help her.
"Take her to the trauma department, be quick, " a nurse said.
"What is going on?" another nurse asked.
"Boss, calm down! Please calm down, " a man in the room said.
Several men were trying to pin a bald guy on the bed in the room.
"No! No! No!" The bald guy were screaming like a maniac.
Suddenly, he took a bite of one of the men's arm. He bit so hard and didn't let go.
"Ouch! Stop! It's so painful! Let me go!" The man tried to take his arm out of the bald guy's mouth, but the bald guy wouldn't let him go.
"Break open his mouth!" the man shouted."Sedate him!"
The medical staff came to give the bald guy an injection, which didn't immediately stop him.
"Give him another dose, " the doctor said.
The nurse gave him another injection, which finally calmed him down.
"Oh my god, " one of the bald guy's men said.
"Dear!" The young man who had been bitten rolled up his sleeve to check the wound. He had two sets of tooth print clearly on his arm, and it was bleeding.
"Get your wound treated now! Otherwise, it might get infected, " the doctor said.
"Is his condition contagious?" the young man asked.
"I'm not sure, " the doctor said.
The young man was so anxious that he went to get his wound treated immediately. He didn't want to be infected and become as crazy as the bald guy.
"Get the paperwork ready and transfer him to the psychiatric ward, " the doctor said.
"OK, " the nurse said.
"Nan, boss has just been transferred to the psychiatric ward, " one of Hong Nan's men reported.
"Why?" Hong Nan asked.
"He just stabbed a nurse, " the man said.
"Is the nurse dead?" Hong Nan asked.
"No, boss stabbed her in the shoulder, " his man asked.
"That's good. Boss always gets agitated so easily, " Hong Nan said "I don't think he's psychotic. The doctors are useless. Go talk to the doctor in charge. Pay him privately if we have to."
"OK, " his man said.
"Sh*t!" Hong Nan cursed.
It was Wang Yao who caused him and his brother to end up in the hospital. He had to get revenge. He wanted to give Wang Yao a painful death.
Meanwhile, Wang Yao was on Nanshan hill.
"What? I know, San Xian, I know. I'm just experimenting, " he said.
He took many wild grapes from the hill. Although the wild grapes didn't look as good as those ones from a vineyard, they tasted good. Wang Yao gave some to his parents to taste and used the rest of them to make wine. He had just learned some wine-making techniques and wanted to try them right away. San Xian was sitting next to him and barked from time to time.
Wang Yao found a lot of information and videos online relating to how to make wine at home. Producing homemade wine didn't seem to be difficult.
"I'll just make one barrel first, " Wang Yao asked as he clapped his hands.
Meanwhile, Zhong Liuchuan received a message when he was in his rental house in the village.
He frowned. This is going to be tricky!
He visited Wang Yao after dinner.
"Dr. Wang, can I have a word with you in private?" Zhong Liuchuan asked.
Wang Yao agreed and followed him out. Zhong Liuchuan told Wang Yao what he knew.
"He is paying $5 million to kill me and my family?" Wang Yao asked with surprise.
"Yes, things like this haven't happened for years, " Zhong Liuchuan said.
"He seems to be very rich, " Wang Yao said.
"He is. The point is a lot of gangsters are poor. That amount is more than enough to make them do anything, " Zhong Liuchuan said.
"Let me think about it, " Wang Yang said after pausing for a moment."If the two brothers from Hong's family died suddenly, I guess no one would do the job."
"Of course, no one can get money from dead people, " Zhong Liuchuan said.
Taking away the firewood from under the cauldron was the fundamental solution
"I have to go out now, " Wang Yao asked.
"I'll keep your parents safe, " Zhong Liuchuan said.
"Thank you very much, " Wang Yao asked.
"My pleasure, " Zhong Liuchuan said.
Wang Yao was still worried about his family since Zhong Liuchuan was on his own. He made a few calls. One of the calls was to Sun Yunsheng, who was going to send several professional bodyguards to protect his family. Another was made to Zhou Xiong, who was from a family with a Kung Fu background.
"Someone wants to hurt you? I'll send some people over to the village tonight, " Sun Yunsheng said.
"I'll come to you tomorrow, " Zhou Xiong said.
The next morning, Sun Yunsheng came with eight professional bodyguards to the village. Zhou Xiong arrived in the afternoon. He came with a thin, young man who had learned Kung Fu from the same teacher. The young man was also from the same village as Zhou Xiong. His name was Zhou Anxin.
"Thank you very much for coming. Please try not to let my parents know, " Wang Yao said.
"Not a problem, " Sun Yunsheng said.
"Are you gonna visit northeast?" Zhou Xiong asked.
"Yes, I am going to visit Hong Nan and his brother's hometown to get some useful information, " Wang Yao said.
"I can arrange someone to go with you or just run some errands for you. He is quite familiar with the northeast, " Sun Yunsheng said.
"Sounds good, " Wang Yao said.
However, he didn't expect that Sun Yunsheng was talking about Hao, the guy with no facial expression.
"Hello, Dr. Wang, " said Hao, whose voice was as stiff as his face.
Wang Yao and Hao arrived at Hong Nan and Hong Wen's hometown that night. It was the town the two had started to become rich in, Dengzhou.
It was busy at night in Dengzhou. The place was on the coast, so it was nice and cool, even in summer.
Hao was very efficient.
"Dr. Wang, I've booked a hotel and contacted someone who knows Hong Nan and Hong Wen, " Hao said.
"I want to talk to the person first, " Wang Yao said.
"OK, " Hao said.
Thirty minutes later, in a cafe, a guy wearing a big golden necklace with a beaded stream in his hand came in front of Wang Yao and Hao.
"Hao, long time no see!" The guy was very happy to see Hao. Apparently, they had known each other for a long time.
"Please take a seat, Dr. Wang. Allow me to introduce Li Chengwei to you. He is one of my friends, " Hao said.
"Just call me Chengwei, " Li Chengwei said.
"OK. I want to ask you something, " Wang Yao said.
"Sure, go ahead, " Li Chengwei said.
"We know to know everything about Hong Nan and Hong Wen, " Hao said.
"Those two? I see. Have they offended you?" Li Chengwei asked.
"Not really, I just want to know their background, " Hao said.
Li Chengwei immediately got what Hao meant.
"They are quite well-known in Dengzhou. They do whatever they want. A lot of people are watching them, " Li Chengwei said.
