Chapter 67: School Violence
In the past, Luo Tao’s phone would always ring like this, but this was the first time for Mo Yan.
Perhaps it was because Mo Yan had always picked up her phone very quickly and had never given the other party a chance to spam her.
Seeing that her phone was ringing non-stop, Mo Yan pushed Luo Tao away and ran to the table to pick up the phone.
“h.e.l.lo.”
…
!!
“Yes, that’s me.”
…
“Is Mo Cheng not feeling well?” At the mention of Mo Cheng, Mo Yan’s voice instantly raised a notch.
…
“Okay, I got it. I’ll be there right away.”
After hanging up the phone, Mo Yan casually took out a set of clothes from the wardrobe and changed in front of Luo Tao.
Just as she was about to leave, Luo Tao hurriedly stopped her.
“Did something happen to Mo Cheng?” Seeing that Mo Yan was anxious, Luo Tao did not have the mood to think about anything else anymore and hurriedly asked.
Being stopped by Luo Tao, Mo Yan was a little irritated and casually replied, “Yes.”.
“Wait for me, I’ll go with you. If something really happens, it’ll be troublesome for you to handle it yourself.”
Luo Tao’s words made sense. If Mo Cheng was really sick, Luo Tao would have to carry him.
Nodding her head, Mo Yan did not say anything and waited for Luo Tao to tidy himself up.
The person who called was Mo Cheng’s cla.s.smate. He said that Mo Cheng fainted during his evening self-study and had been sent to the hospital near the school. He hoped that she could get there as soon as possible.
Sitting in the taxi, Mo Yan felt her entire body turn cold. She had almost accidentally ignored her own brother
“Don’t worry.” Luo Tao held Mo Yan’s hand and held her in his arms.
He was not in the mood to talk about why Mo Yan was so concerned about Mo Cheng. He knew very well that Mo Yan and Mo Cheng were siblings. Even if he wanted Mo Yan to tell him her true ident.i.ty, Luo Tao knew that it was not appropriate to test her right now.
Luo Tao’s embrace made Mo Yan gradually warm up. She held onto Luo Tao’s shirt tightly. She was afraid, afraid that her brother would suddenly be diagnosed with some illness like her mother.
The first time, she could use her marriage as a bargaining chip. What about the second time? Moreover, Mo Cheng was still so young…
Nothing will happen, nothing will happen.
Luo Tao kept patting Mo Yan’s back to comfort her.
Mo Yan was still extremely worried.
“It’ll be fine, don’t be afraid, I’m here.” Luo Tao repeated this sentence in Mo Yan’s ear over and over again, as if he was rea.s.suring Mo Yan.
The car was not driving slowly, but in Mo Yan’s eyes, every second was a torment.
When they finally arrived at the entrance of the hospital, Mo Yan immediately got out of the car and rushed in without bringing an umbrella.
Mo Cheng’s ward was on the fifth floor. Seeing that the elevator was taking too long, Mo Yan went straight to the stairs.
Mo Cheng was sleeping soundly on the bed. When Mo Yan arrived, a doctor in a white coat and two boys were standing beside his bed.
“h.e.l.lo, I’m Mo Cheng’s sister. May I know how Mo Cheng is doing?”
After saying this, Mo Yan could not stop panting heavily.
The doctor asked Mo Yan to calm down before he said, “The patient fainted because of a long-term lack of sleep.”
Mo Yan was stunned. Mo Cheng had a long-term lack of sleep?
Seeing her incredulous look, the doctor gestured for the two of them to speak outside the door.
“His lack of sleep may be caused by the pressure of studying or some external pressure.”
“External pressure?” Mo Yan was puzzled by the doctor’s vague words.
“When I examined the patient, I saw a few kicks and bruises on the patient’s body, and they were old and new. As the patient’s cla.s.smate said that he had been living on campus, these injuries were likely the cause of the patient’s lack of sleep.”
‘Lack of sleep? Kicks and bruises?’
Mo Yan looked at the teenager on the bed through the gla.s.s in shock. In other words, Mo Cheng was very likely to have encountered school violence?
Luo Tao had unknowingly stood beside Mo Yan. He supported Mo Yan, whose legs were somewhat weak, and consulted the doctor about the procedure for the examination of the injuries. The doctor spoke very carefully. It was probably because he sympathized with the teenager, who was very likely to have encountered school violence, that he spoke a little more to the two of them.
When the two of them said that they were going to go downstairs with the doctor to go through the hospitalization procedures, the teacher who had sent Mo Cheng to the hospital just returned. Luo Tao asked Mo Yan to stay behind and said that he would do it himself. Afraid that Luo Tao did not have enough money, Mo Yan transferred the few hundred yuan remaining on her card to him.
After thanking the teacher and the two cla.s.smates, Mo Yan asked the teacher about Mo Cheng’s situation in school in private.
However, the teacher was only responsible for facilitating the evening self-study in the cla.s.sroom every night. Although he had a good impression of Mo Cheng, the specific situation was unknown.
After sending the few people away, Mo Yan returned to Mo Cheng’s bedside.
