Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat-Chapter 83 - 80 The Truth
Chapter 83: Chapter 80 The Truth
Chapter 83 -80 The Truth
“Song Jiawen left? How could she just leave, wasn’t she the one who injured my son? How could she just walk away without being detained?”
Hearing that the parties involved had already gone back to eat and sleep, the hospital director Chen became furious, “Is this how you police handle cases? Letting the parties involved go while keeping the victim here; this is blatant nepotism.”
Zhou Youming sneered, “I’m not sure if we’re using nepotism, but Director Chen, you definitely wanted to, right, Deputy Captain Li?”
Following Director Chen into the police station was a middle-aged man in plain clothes who smiled sheepishly. The Silia District Branch had collaborated with the military academy before, which is why Zhou Youming recognized him.
He also didn’t expect that the girl who injured Director Chen’s son was Zhou Youming’s little aunt.
At this point, all he could do was try to mediate, “Look, it’s a case of ‘the temple flooded—family members washing away family members.’ We’re all family here; let’s discuss this amicably.”
“Amicably?” Zhou Youming pointed at Chen Yijie, “That boy filed the complaint, and from the moment he got here, he’s been screaming about suing my sister. Suing her for intentional injury, is that it? Fine, we’ll sue too, for his indecency and obstructing a student from taking their college entrance exam. Officer Lu, please note this down, I’m calling a lawyer right now.”
“This, this must be a misunderstanding, Instructor Zhou, please, calm down, calm down.”
Seeing that Zhou Youming was really about to make the call, Deputy Captain Li hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and signaled to Officer Lu, who was in charge of this case.
Officer Lu was also quite helpless. He didn’t look at Director Chen but earnestly explained to Deputy Captain Li, “Right after Song Jiawen’s exam ended, Chen Yijie was blocking her at the door. Then he got into an altercation with Song Jiawen’s cousin, who’s only sixteen years old, still a minor. And the cousin was injured worse than him. If we’re talking about the victim here, it’s not necessarily Chen Yijie.”
Director Chen immediately glared, “But what about Song Jiawen hitting my son with a brick? How do you explain that?”
Officer Lu looked at him with a complicated gaze, “I heard you’re a surgeon? Why don’t you go examine your son’s wounds and see if they’ve healed.”
The little girl clearly didn’t have much strength; either she didn’t dare use her full force, or it was just a small brick hit to the head, causing only a small cut—which wouldn’t have stopped bleeding by the time we arrived otherwise.
And for this, you claim intentional injury?
What a joke!
Deputy Captain Li also felt it was quite embarrassing. Isn’t this just making trouble?
He pulled Director Chen aside to persuade his son to leave, to stop making a scene for no reason.
Zhou Youming and Xie Yanhai observed with cold eyes until Officer Lu said it was all fine, and then they got up and left.
They really couldn’t stay another second, seeing that jerk made their blood boil.
If it weren’t for Jiajia still taking her college entrance exams these days, this wouldn’t be the end of it.
Back at Zhou Youming’s home, Xie Yanhai made a call to the Yang Family and told Elder Yang’s eldest son in detail about what happened today and previously.
After hanging up, he explained to Zhou Youming, “This Chen guy is petty. His son got hit by Jiajia with a brick today, and he’s certainly holding a grudge. I’m not afraid of anything else, just that he might do something underhanded to screw over Jiajia’s exams. It’s better to be prepared and prevent it from happening.”
That advice was pretty similar to what Jiang Yan had said.
….
Meanwhile, Director Chen took Chen Yijie out of the police station. He let him get into the car first, and then stood outside with Deputy Captain Li, each with a cigarette in hand.
“Didn’t they say that Zhou guy is from out of town? Has backing?”
Vice Captain Li nodded, “This is a key talent cultivated by their Political Commissar Liu, do you know the rank of their school’s political commissar?”
When Vice Captain Li said two words, the expression on Director Chen’s face immediately darkened even more than before.
“So you are saying that both my son and I must suffer this loss today?”
To this, Vice Captain Li was really powerless, “Not to mention Zhou Youming himself, but just the fact that your son took the initiative to cause trouble, plus there are so many witnesses—it’s tough to handle. This is the city, not your county town.”
Director Chen didn’t make a sound.
Vice Captain Li knew he was vindictive and gave him a suggestion, “Isn’t this young lady from your county? Now the college entrance exam is in the city, so you can’t do anything. But what about after the exams end? Won’t she return to Yunfeng? And there’s her admission notice… To deal with a young girl, there are many means; why rush at this moment?”
Director Chen thought it made sense and his previously heavy heart loosened a bit. He even smiled when he waved goodbye to Vice Captain Li.
Little did he know, the man who was plotting revenge hadn’t yet waited for Song Jiawen to return, but three days later, he received a surprise inspection from the City Health Bureau.
That day he was still eating at home when he suddenly got an anxious phone call from his assistant, “Director, it’s bad news. The City Health Bureau secretly came for an inspection, and right at the hospital entrance they were stopped by several patients, those patients, they are, they are the same ones from before…”
With a bang, Director Chen felt his entire head explode as if struck by thunder.
For several years, the City Health Bureau had not come for an inspection, or if they did, they would notify in advance. Why did they come today without any warning?
And those patients… Clenching his teeth, Director Chen asked his assistant, “Didn’t I tell you to handle them? Why have they come back again?”
The assistant explained with a pained expression, “I did handle it, I sent them all back to the village, and also provided a settlement fee. Who could have imagined they would come back together like this, and just happen to block the City Health Bureau’s leaders?”
Coincidence?
Director Chen inexplicably felt a twitch in his eyelid, sensing something amiss about the assistant’s use of the word “coincidence.”
But right now he didn’t have the time to think about it, and he rushed to the hospital immediately after hanging up the phone.

In the city, the next two days of examinations went smoothly. After finishing the last subject, Integrated Science, Song Jiawen planned to go back to Jianghai Town with Xie Yanhai.
They had already agreed with Teacher Yu and Yang Dan earlier; they were waiting for her to join them for the graduation photo after the college entrance examination.
However, before leaving, she still needed to talk to her sister.
Song Xiwen asked Xie Yanhai to take care of Haohao and then found a quiet café where the two sisters sat face to face in a rare formal meeting.
She knew this moment would come sooner or later, but Song Xiwen didn’t expect it to arrive so quickly. Fourteen years passed in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace behind. Now looking at Song Jiawen again, the memory of that pale, tender, and giggling snowball seemed to recede further, replaced by a stunningly elegant beauty, cold and aloof, beyond her imagination.
“The first time I saw you, you were this tiny, a small bundle, pitifully lying behind the trash bin in the corner of the wall, your head, face, and body all covered in blood. If one didn’t pay attention, one might think you were dead. I held back my screams at the time and checked your breath only to find out you were alive.
I wrapped you in my school uniform and carried you home.
When I encountered neighbors along the way, they asked what happened to my sister. I answered very naturally, saying she accidentally scraped her head while running.
But in reality, my sister had died the day before.”
