Chapter 44

Chapter 36, the traffic today is a bit heavy.

The location of the incident was actually quite close to the county hospital, just a few streets away in a straight line.

Despite such a short distance, no citizen had the courage to take Xu Ming to the hospital. Yang Zixuan sighed at the fickleness of human nature and the immense power of authority. A mere relative of a county official could scare a group of grown men.

The Santana took a few turns and arrived at the county people's hospital. Xiao Chen and Yang Zixuan directly took Xu Ming to the emergency room. Yang Zixuan didn't call the hospital leadership to avoid the usual pleasantries and formalities.

Fortunately, Xu Ming's injuries were not particularly severe, and he was treated promptly. Soon, the doctors had bandaged his limbs, and Yang Zixuan was dozing off in a chair.

After his rebirth, Yang Zixuan felt his energy was quite robust. He only needed a few hours of rest each day to maintain full vigor.

According to historical events, the great leader's Southern Tour would begin in a few days. Yang Zixuan stayed up all night writing an article emphasizing deepening reforms, which he handed to Liu Xiao early in the morning, asking her to help find an old classmate at the provincial party newspaper to publish it...

In his previous life, Yang Zixuan was excellent at writing economics papers, but he found it quite challenging to write these unfamiliar official documents. This morning, he felt a bit tired for the first time, but a short nap quickly restored his energy...

After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he also had Liu Xiao help publish an article, but it seemed to have fallen into a void. At least on the surface, it neither sparked significant controversy nor halted the wave of bourgeois liberalization, leaving Yang Zixuan very puzzled. Liu Xiao was also puzzled, as she had read the article and found it incisive and well-analyzed!

This time, Yang Zixuan was determined not to give up and wrote another article, hoping to catch the attention and appreciation of the higher-ups!

Just as Xu Ming, wrapped in bandages, was about to leave the ward, a long-haired youth suddenly rushed into the hospital, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, wearing a garish plaid shirt. He charged straight at Xu Ming, who had a honest and simple face, and punched him hard...

Behind him were several men in police uniforms. Seeing the long-haired youth take action, they also joined in, beating Xu Ming fiercely...

The surrounding doctors and nurses couldn't help but scream in shock.

"Stop! What are you doing!" Yang Zixuan, still groggy from sleep, was suddenly awakened by the commotion. He immediately stood up and walked over.

The long-haired youth, still feeling unsatisfied, was surprised by the interference. He turned and glared at Yang Zixuan, rolling up his sleeves to prepare to beat him as well...

Seeing the long-haired youth's aggressive stance, Xiao Chen, who had military experience and was a skilled fighter, stepped forward and delivered a powerful punch to the long-haired youth's abdomen, immediately causing him to spit out bitter water and crouch in pain.

Xiao Chen had served in the military and was a top soldier. After being transferred to civilian life, he didn't abandon his combat skills, which came in handy now...

"Which police station or county bureau are you from?" Yang Zixuan shouted at the police officers who were about to surround Xiao Chen!

The police officers recognized Yang Zixuan, sensing his authoritative presence and knowing he was used to giving orders. They hesitated to act rashly.

"Who are you? Why should we tell you where we work?" One of the young police officers, inexperienced and disrespectful, replied with a cocky tone...

"You won't tell me? I'll call An Zai Shan and find out." Yang Zixuan chuckled and walked to the public phone by the hospital.

"You think you know a big shot like Director An? You should have some sense when you brag. Do you think Director An would care about us? You think..." The police officer was speaking when he saw Yang Zixuan actually dialing An Zai Shan's number on the public phone.

As officers from the Hongshui District police station, they all knew An Zai Shan's phone number. They were surprised that this seemingly mild-mannered man actually knew it, and a sense of impending doom began to spread among them...

"An Zai Shan, yes! There are a few men in police uniforms here. Ask them if they are your subordinates." Yang Zixuan spoke a few words and handed the phone to one of the older police officers...

"Which police station or county bureau are you from? Are you on drugs or something? Who is your leader..."

On the other end of the phone, An Zai Shan was giving a fierce reprimand...

The young police officers didn't dare to ask about Yang Zixuan's identity and fled in a hurry.

The long-haired youth, seeing the young police officers scared off by Yang Zixuan, was surprised. It seemed this interfering young man had some background. With a pale face from being punched in the abdomen by Xiao Chen, he said, "Who are you? Do you know who I am? No matter who you are, if you don't apologize to me today, you won't leave this hospital..."

Yang Zixuan found this quite amusing and didn't bother to argue with him. Instead, he helped Xu Ming into the examination room.

"Remember this, I will get my revenge..." The long-haired youth's hoarse voice echoed behind Yang Zixuan.

Xu Ming finally saw Yang Zixuan's face and was surprised. "Why is it you? Where is Su Chen? Are you not together? Don't worry about me, or you'll really get into big trouble."

Xu Ming didn't know Yang Zixuan's identity before, thinking he was just a wealthy young man with some business acumen. He didn't want to get involved in this mess...

Yang Zixuan didn't want to bully such an honest person and didn't explain much. He just instructed the doctor to take good care of Xu Ming and promised to handle everything, then left the ward.

While walking down the hospital corridor, which was filled with the pungent smell of medicine, Yang Zixuan suddenly caught a familiar scent. He turned his head and saw Lin Ruoshui, wearing a deep red coat and elegant high heels, walking hurriedly with her head down.

"Where are you in such a hurry?" Yang Zixuan asked casually.

Lin Ruoshui, not expecting to run into Yang Zixuan at the hospital, was momentarily at a loss for words. She instinctively blurted out, "The traffic today is a bit heavy, so I came to the hospital..."

Before she could finish, she realized her mistake, quickly covered her mouth, and ran off, her face flushed with embarrassment.

"Hmm?" Yang Zixuan was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly understood, a mischievous smile appearing on his face.
