Chapter 23: Jiang Wan Borrows Money After Her Brother's Accident
"Brother Che, I want to talk to you about something."
"Okay, go ahead."
"My brother ran into some trouble and needs some money. I'm short 10,000 yuan right now, you—"
Before Jiang Wan could finish speaking, the words "I'll lend it to you" came from the other side.
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Brother Che."
Shen Che chuckled, "You don't need to be so polite with me."
"When we were kids, we often spent each other's allowance, don't you remember?"
Jiang Wan smiled for the first time that evening. "I haven't forgotten."
Shen Che: "Is 10,000 enough? I'll transfer you more; you can pay me back if you don't use it all."
A warm feeling welled up in Jiang Wan's heart. "Okay, thank you, Brother Che."
"No need to thank me anymore. Send me your bank card information via WeChat, I'll transfer the money to you now."
"OK."
Three minutes after sending the message, Jiang Wan received a notification that 50,000 yuan had been transferred.
Seeing that there was enough money in the card, Jiang Wan finally felt relieved.
Money may not be everything, but it can solve 95% of the problems in this world.
Jiang Wan held her phone and looked out the window.
As the ride-hailing car drove along the highway, the scenery outside the window gradually changed from the steel and concrete of the city to the fields of the suburbs.
She slowly closed her eyes to rest.
9 pm.
After a two-hour drive, Jiang Wan finally arrived at the hospital.
I saw my younger brother in the emergency room corridor.
He sat on a plastic chair, his school uniform covered in dust, with a tear in the cuff.
There was a gauze pad on his elbow and a shallow abrasion on his face, but it didn't look serious.
His head was bowed low, his hands were clasped together on his knees, and he looked like a large dog that had been soaked by the rain.
"Xiaofeng." Jiang Wan walked over and reached out to touch his head.
Jiang Feng looked up, his eyes a little red.
The moment he saw his sister, his lips trembled, and he held back his tears, his voice hoarse, "Sister... I'm sorry."
"Don't rush to apologize, let's get down to business," Jiang Wan said calmly. "That man was following the female student, did you call the police?"
Jiang Feng shook his head. "Not yet. He had a brain hemorrhage at the time. I was in a hurry to call an ambulance and didn't think about calling the police."
"If you hit him now, we'll get the police to the hospital. Even if we have to pay for the medical expenses, we'll make sure the bad guys are punished."
"Okay!" Jiang Feng replied, and immediately took out his phone to call the police.
Jiang Wan stood quietly to the side, waiting for him to finish.
After hanging up the phone, she asked, "Which room is the injured person in? I'll go check on them."
Jiang Feng pointed to a ward at the end of the corridor.
"His wife is inside too."
Jiang Wan patted his shoulder, "You wait here, I'll go talk to them."
"No, I want to go with you!" Jiang Feng was afraid his sister would suffer.
He had already dealt with those two; they were both cheaters.
Jiang Wan didn't insist, and the siblings entered the ward one after the other.
Upon entering, Jiang Wan saw a middle-aged man with bandages wrapped around his head on the hospital bed.
The other person didn't look well, but seemed to be in good spirits.
A middle-aged woman in a floral shirt was sitting by the bed, talking loudly on the phone.
"...I'm telling you, this can't just be left like this! My husband was beaten like this, we have to pay compensation!"
Jiang Wan walked over, neither humble nor arrogant, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Jiang Feng's older sister."
The middle-aged woman hung up the phone, looked Jiang Wan up and down, her eyes filled with hostility.
"You're his sister? Your brother beat my husband like this, what do you say we do about it?"
Jiang Wan didn't rush to refute, but glanced at the man on the bed and spoke calmly.
"Auntie, I now fully understand what happened."
"It's wrong for my brother to hit someone, but your husband was also at fault first."
"He was following a female student with malicious intent, and my brother was acting as a Good Samaritan."
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" The middle-aged woman's voice suddenly rose two decibels.
"What stalking? My husband isn't that kind of person!"
"It was your brother who attacked me without saying a word, and now he dares to slander my husband?"
"If you keep talking nonsense like that, I'm calling the police!"
The man on the bed immediately said to his wife, "Honey, calm down. These two are talking nonsense. Don't argue with a child."
"Just make them pay compensation; there's no need to call the police."
The woman said loudly, "I know."
Jiang Wan observed this and roughly made a judgment in her mind.
This woman has a fiery temper, but she seems unaware of her husband's character.
She smiled slightly, "Auntie, you don't need to call the police."
The woman had a smug look on her face, her expression saying, "Scared now?"
Then Jiang Wan said the next thing—
"I have already called the police."
"What did you say?!" The man on the bed sat up abruptly, pointing at Jiang Wan, "You, you..."
You talked for ages but got nowhere.
The woman noticed her husband's unusual behavior and assumed he had a headache. "Okay, you lie down. I'll handle this."
A guilty look flashed in the man's eyes as he began to think about how to deny everything in front of the police.
The woman looked at Jiang Wan again, and sneered, "Fine, since you've already called the police, then let's wait for them to arrive."
"it is good."
After Jiang Wan finished speaking, she took her younger brother to the door of the ward and sat down to wait.
About ten minutes later, two police officers rushed over.
Upon seeing the police, the middle-aged man preemptively accused the perpetrator, immediately portraying himself as the perfect victim.
What he didn't know was that Jiang Feng had already provided the location of the incident when he called the police, and had also asked the police to check if there were any surveillance cameras nearby.
Therefore, Jiang Wan and Jiang Feng, siblings, were not flustered at all when they saw the police officers.
Without wasting any words, the police took out their phones, pulled up the captured surveillance video, and shoved it right in front of the middle-aged man's eyes.
"See for yourself, aren't you stalking me!"
"The surveillance cameras have captured this; do you think you can get away with making things up?"
"We have contacted the victim, who confirmed that you were the one who followed him first, and that Jiang Feng acted bravely."
The middle-aged man struggled desperately, crying, "No, no! They conspired to frame me! I'm innocent!"
Such sophistry couldn't even fool his wife.
The middle-aged woman's face changed like a palette of colors.
"Snapped!"
The slap landed squarely on the man's face.
He slapped the fan while cursing.
"You shameless bastard! You've completely disgraced me!"
Jiang Wan and her brother Jiang Feng watched the whole show with smiles.
Although he eventually had to pay 30,000 yuan in medical expenses due to excessive acts of bravery.
But I still managed to vent my anger.
The man was fined and detained for stalking a minor.
It was already 10:30 when I left the hospital.
It's only two blocks from home.
They chose to walk home.
The streetlights cast long shadows of the siblings.
Jiang Feng lowered his head, his voice muffled, "Sister, I'm sorry."
"I'll pay back that 30,000 yuan by working a summer job."
"Talk to the friend who lent you the money, and I'll give him an IOU so you can pay it back in installments."
