Chapter 24 Fellow Patients

 

After the battle at Fortune Inn, neither Changqing Corporation nor the Su-Liu-Bai-Kong group took the initiative to report to the authorities. The incident that happened at the restaurant was kept within its walls, and any lingering grudges or disagreements were left to be dealt with later. It seemed that the arms smuggling case could come to an end with Changqing Corporation temporarily conceding.

 

Both sides did not cause any more trouble, which was undoubtedly in line with the demands of the police station and the police chief in the Zhanan district. They were happy to see peace on the ground and no more troublesome incidents, so they were not interested in investigating the fight.

 

Since Changqing Corporation landed in Dragon City, they have had conflicts with many people, but only the Su-Liu-Bai-Kong group managed to force the host to compromise and take away 600,000 yuan in compensation. The unluckiest person in this matter was certainly Lu Feng, but the one who paid the heaviest price was undoubtedly the floral shirt man. He was in a pitiful state, with the evidence for the serious injury of the workers being conclusive, the case of smashing and looting the Su family garbage factory, and the added charge of arson by Wang Daolin. The final shooting case would definitely have to be solved too. In this case, with both sides wanting to settle things, the floral shirt man was most likely going to be the scapegoat.

 

As the saying goes, "if you have too many lice, you're bound to get bitten." In any case, the floral shirt man was going to be locked up. As long as Lu Feng could pay enough money, for someone like the floral shirt man, the difference between a few more or fewer years in prison wouldn't make much of a difference.

On the side of the four companies, Su Tianyu, Su Tianbei, Kong Zhenghui, Bai Hongbo, and others were all injured. After leaving Fortune Inn that night, they were immediately sent to the hospital for treatment.

 

In this battle, the four companies could not be considered an absolute victory. At best, they managed to turn the tables and achieve their psychological demands. However, the most important thing was that they made the people from Changqing Corporation, especially Lu Feng, feel scared. It was said that when the doctor was examining Lu Feng's wounds after he was sent to the hospital, he instinctively protected his head with his hands, thinking that the fight was not over yet and that Su Tianyu was still hitting him. He even nearly shouted, "Take away the ashtray!"

 

It could be seen that Lu Feng's psychological trauma was also significant. He probably wouldn't even use an ashtray to smoke in the future. Su Tianyu and Kong Zhenghui's intentions in insisting on taking the 600,000 yuan compensation were also for this reason. Li Hongze was not mentioned, but with someone like Lu Feng who suffered such a big loss, if you acted weak when settling things, there was a possibility that he would retaliate against you behind your back.

 

When you fight, you have to win and win completely! Even if you can't win, you have to make these people scared just by thinking about you.

 

The 600,000 yuan in cash given by Changqing Company was distributed reasonably. The Kong family received 250,000, the Su family received 250,000, the Bai family received 100,000, and the Liu family didn't get a single penny.

 

In this matter, the Liu family contributed the least and almost relied on their teammates to fight for them, ultimately lying down and winning. Liu Laoer also knew that the Liu family should not take the money, as he barely participated in the battle at the Fortune Inn, dodging and evading attacks throughout the entire time.

 

As for the Bai family, although Bai Hongbo performed like a one-third man in the battle at Fortune Inn, with later events such as being forced to fight back and awakening, he still contributed very little in the early stages. The media wasn't contacted by him, and the police station's connections had nothing to do with the Bai family, so 100,000 was a reasonable amount. Moreover, Big Bai loved to show off, and giving him a few compliments might be more effective than giving him money.

 

The turning point of this incident was that the Su family hooked up with Wang Daolin, and the Kong family also found many media connections, so they were the main force behind Changqing's work. Therefore, it was reasonable to split the compensation evenly between the two.

The matter ended temporarily, and Su Tianyu, Su Tianbei, Kong Zhenghui, Bai Hongbo, and others entered a long-term recovery state, staying together at the People's Hospital and getting to know each other.

 

Speaking of recovery, one couldn't help but mention Big Bai's talent. Since everyone went to the emergency room for treatment at different times that night, the ward assignments were random. Su Tianyu received treatment in the same ward as Big Bai at first.

 

After three days with Big Bai, Su Tianyu couldn't stand it anymore, as this guy was too good at bragging. He talked a lot, and his topics were deep, ranging from the current situation of sanitation workers to when Emperor Qin Shihuang died in the Chinatown area, and even asked Su Tianyu what he thought of interstellar migration.

 

Su Tianyu didn't even have a place to live now, let alone the time to talk to him about interstellar migration.

 

In addition to being talkative, Big Bai also had many female friends. During the three days of hospitalization, Su Tianyu saw at least twenty women dressed in a cool style coming to visit him, carrying fruit and nutritional products.

 

After investigating, these women were either hostesses, developing hostess relationships, or working on "major projects" in some entertainment city, and Big Bai could chat with them for at least two hours. Sometimes, when it was late, Big Bai would ask Su Tianyu to go out with him for a while.

 

Who the hell could stand that?

 

Su Tianyu had no choice but to find an opportunity to switch to a room with his second brother, Su Tianbei. But he didn't expect that Su Tianbei's roommate was Wu Shixiong, who was... a pervert and didn't speak fluently, causing Su Tianyu to feel a little overwhelmed.

 

Wu Shixiong was injured because of the incident at the Su family's garbage dump. He went to the hospital before Su Tianyu, and he had already been staying in Bai Hongbo's ward for three days when they became roommates officially. Wu Shixiong's wounds were almost healed and he could move around without problems.

 

Wu Shixiong was a straightforward person. He took good care of Su Tianyu, who had suffered severe injuries to his legs and arms. Sometimes, Wu Shixiong had to help Su Tianyu go to the toilet and buy food for him on a regular basis.

 

After spending a week in the hospital, the two of them had become quite familiar with each other.

 

One evening, Wu Shixiong sat in a chair, picking at his feet, and asked Su Tianyu, "Little...Little Brother Yu, they always talk about sleeping with women, but how do you actually do it?"

 

Su Tianyu lay on the bed, taken aback for a moment, and replied somewhat awkwardly, "Don't ask about things in society!"

 

"I...I've actually done it before...but I didn't feel anything," Wu Shixiong insisted on talking about this topic.

 

Su Tianyu was also surprised to hear this, "How could you not feel anything?"

 

"I...I couldn't hold onto it with one hand. It hurt when I squeezed," Wu Shixiong replied after thinking for a while.

 

Su Tianyu couldn't help but break out, "Are you kidding me?!"

 

While the two were chatting, there suddenly came a shout from outside the door, "Damn it, I told you not to dawdle. I'll be there in a minute. Hey, go back. You don't understand anything. Why are you following me?"

 

The yelling was loud, and Su Tianyu turned his head in confusion and looked towards the door of the ward.
