After Guan Lei was taken to the school, he was immediately confined in a detention room without even a window.
At the moment, Guan Lei could do nothing but rest as much as possible to ensure his safety. Otherwise, if anything happened to him, he had no idea what kind of blame might be thrown at him.
It would undoubtedly affect the Guan family, so he had to quickly recover from his injuries, avoiding potential schemes against him.
As for who was slandering him, it was likely just political opponents, nothing more.
Fourteen years ago, his elder brother, Guan Miao, had faced a similar situation. Little did he expect that today, fourteen years later, it was his turn.
Guan Lei had not rested for long when he heard a commotion outside.
However, the soundproofing in his confinement room was quite effective, and he could only hear faint, indistinct noises. He had no idea what was the specifics of the conversation.
Outside, a confrontation had unfolded, with both sides unwilling to let the other’s medical personnel enter.
Guan Yi stared coldly at the opposing group, stating firmly, “Liu Dong, I don’t trust your doctors and nurses. Guan Lei is a member of the Guan family, and I must ensure his safety at all times. So, he must be treated by the doctors I’ve brought. ”
Liu Dong, not willing to give in, responded, “Currently, Guan Lei is a suspect under supervision. If some people want him dead to protect certain interests, our investigation will be hindered. Therefore, we must use our people to ensure Guan Lei’s safety until the official investigation order is issued.”
Both sides cited the need to ensure Guan Lei’s safety as a reason to block the other party from entering the confinement room.
Guan Yi squinted sinisterly, his voice carrying a steely authority. “Is that so?
Are you implying that I, as a grandfather, would harm my own grandson?” Feeling the imposing pressure, Liu Done had the urge to retreat, but considering his mission, he persisted, “Old Master, your words make me fearful. I suspect no one, especially not you. I’m just concerned that someone might infiltrate your medical personnel and harm Guan Lei. It’s purely a precaution.”
“Oh, really? Do you think I’ve become senile and can’t even judge people anymore?” Guan Yi persisted with an air of tenacity, leaning on his seniority and refusing to yield. He was determined not to let the opposing party enter.
The Old Master left the opposing side helpless, and Zheng Huai, watching on the side, marveled at the situation.
When the incident first occurred, Guan Yi’s call had sent shivers down Zheng Huai’s spine.
Who knew how a professional psychiatrist, for reasons unknown, acquired knowledge in several other fields and ended up becoming a trauma specialist?
Facing Guan Yi who was unwilling to budge an inch, the other side was exasperated.
But considering the potential consequences, they finally realized that if they continued this standoff, Guan Lei might die from infection.
Liu Dong quickly adopted a humble and respectful demeanor, smiling at Guan Yi. “Old Master, how could I ever doubt your intentions? I didn’t mean that at all. I’m just concerned about Guan Lei’s safety. So, I’ll take the risk this time and offend you. Sorry.”
Guan Yi could see through his tactics but had no choice. He could only pray that Guan Lei would endure a little longer.
Both sides fell into a peculiar and tense silence until someone from the opposing side arrived and whispered something in Liu Dongs ear.
Afterward, Liu Dong swept his gaze across Guan Yi’s side and nodded.
Once the person left, Liu Dongs face immediately transformed into a pleasing smile. “Old Master, I was just inflexible. How could I suspect your people? Our minister scolded me just now, so I apologize for my actions. I’m sorry!’
With that, Liu Dong looked toward Zheng Huai and his nurse and said with a smile, “Doctor, please go inside quickly. Treating the injuries is crucial; any delay would be disastrous.”
Guan Yi ignored the other party and simply turned to let Zheng Huai enter.
As the door opened, only Zheng Huai entered. Guan Yi stood guard like a door deity at the entrance.
Duan Jian and Xu Hua had been watching from the sidelines. Both began to feel a bit exhausted as the time approached three in the morning..
