Chapter 655: The Loyal CEO

Their eyes met, and Jiafeimao immediately shut his mouth.

But "Cassette" started up again.

"What about me? What am I supposed to do? The fat guy can pretend to be a patient, do I have to play dead too? I don't want to lie in a hospital bed with the fat guy, I despise him..."

One set of clothes was still missing.

It was impossible for "Cassette" to leave the hospital wearing a patient gown.

"The CEO" said, "You shut up too. Wait for me, I'll be back soon." He slipped out.

He did indeed return quickly, holding a neatly folded ambulance driver's uniform.

"Put it on."

"Cassette" put it on; it was a perfect fit.

Once ready, Jiafeimao lay on the gurney, and the three of them pushed it as they ran outside.

The journey was very smooth, and they encountered no obstruction.

But once they reached the courtyard, the small group had a disagreement.

Jiafeimao was unhappy about continuing to act as a patient; he felt that as a "cat," having to lie on a hospital bed to escape was the greatest insult to a cat.

He insisted on jumping over the wall to escape.

"Cassette" mocked him: "Silly cat, stupid cat, dumb cat, can't you have a little self-awareness about what you are? You want to jump the wall, but you can't even jump up..."

"I can, I really can. If you don't believe me, I'll jump and show you."

Jiafeimao actually got off the gurney and started warming up!

Jian Yining:...

"The CEO" pulled him and whispered, "Let's go quickly. We can't take them with us; we can't get these two out."

Jian Yining still wanted to try a little harder.

"Hey, you guys hurry up and go. We can practice slowly after we get out."

Jiafeimao didn't listen and insisted on climbing the wall.

Jian Yining gave up and turned to Cassette, saying, "Come with us quickly."

It was no use.

The two of them ignored him completely, only concerned with bickering.

"The CEO" was right; these two were already so immersed in the joy of arguing that they couldn't extricate themselves.

"Who's in the courtyard?"

"Snap!"

The courtyard floodlights turned on, bright as day.

Oh no, they had been discovered; they had to escape immediately, otherwise, no one would get out.

"The CEO" drove the ambulance out, Jian Yining jumped into the vehicle, and the two of them fled first.

Looking through the rearview mirror, Jian Yining saw Jiafeimao and "Cassette" being caught by the Security Guard, and he felt very pained.

"The CEO" caught a glimpse of his expression and said coldly, "You're fine in every other way, but you have one flaw: your heart is too soft."

"You can't accomplish great things with a soft heart. You must change, otherwise, this cruel world will eat you until not even your bones are left."

Jian Yining:...

He had heard similar words before.

But the person who once said such things hadn't managed to do it themselves.

People, they have mouths to lecture others, but no mouths to lecture themselves.

The sound of an ambulance rang out behind them; it was coming to chase them!

A patient escaping from a psychiatric hospital was no small matter; if they endangered society, the trouble would be huge.

The car speed had reached 180 mph, but the car behind was still in hot pursuit.

"The CEO" furrowed his brows into a knot. As he turned a corner, he suddenly slammed on the brakes—the car door opened, and Jian Yining was pushed out.

Before leaving, he dropped a sentence: "You run fast; come back to save us once you're safe."

The car hadn't driven more than twenty meters away.

A moment later, the car behind caught up and blocked them; no one noticed Jian Yining getting out of the car.

Hiding behind a large tree by the roadside, Jian Yining saw with his own eyes "The CEO's" car being cut off and forced to stop, and "The CEO" being dragged out of the car.

Those people were questioning him.

They were likely asking where he had gone.

"The CEO's" face remained as cold and aloof as ever, his head held high, saying nothing.

Jian Yining felt as uncomfortable as if his throat were stuffed with cotton; he turned and ran into the night...

Sheng Hanyu called Shi Youxuan to tell her that A Ning had been sent to a psychiatric hospital and asked her to go save him.

Shi Youxuan and Jian Yixin went immediately, but upon arriving at the psychiatric hospital, they were told, "Ma'am, we don't have this person in our hospital."

The two didn't believe it, but they checked the register and he truly wasn't there.

Jian Yixin said, "I want to go to the ward to see. Only after seeing all the patients can I believe what you are saying."

Back then, she had framed Bai Xue for having a mental illness and sending her to a psychiatric hospital; the memory was still fresh.

Sometimes, formal procedures weren't necessary.

"No, ma'am, you don't have the right to do that." Jian Yixin's request was flatly refused.

"Is that so?"

"Fine, you'll know in a moment whether I have the right to do so." She wasn't angry, and took out her phone to dial a number.

Jian Yixin smiled radiantly: "Yes, it's me. It's rare that you still remember my number after so long... it's a very small matter..."

Then she handed the phone to the doctor: "The Chairman wants to speak with you."

The doctor was half-doubting, but after taking the phone and hearing only one sentence, his expression immediately became respectful.

"Yes, yes, alright!"

Hanging up the phone, the doctor's attitude did a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn: "So it is Chairman Jian. I am sorry, I did not know it was you. Please, take a look, this is the list of patients admitted in the last two days."

Now, there was no more mention of "authority."

Jian Yixin scrolled the mouse, and the two of them carefully browsed the patients' names, genders, and ages one by one.

After looking through them all, it was not there.

Shi Youxuan noticed that a name among them, "Ji Wuming," was very suspicious.

There are not many people in Jiangzhou with the surname Ji; they are very rare.

Moreover, who would name their child "Wuming" (No Life)?

That is far too inauspicious.

She pointed at "Ji Wuming" on the roster and said to the doctor: "I want to see this person."

The doctor's face changed immediately.

He stammered: "He, this person is not here."

"Not here? Where did he go?"

"He ran away."

Since he could no longer hide it, the doctor told the truth, recounting how "Ji Wuming" had colluded with patients in the same Hospital Ward to fake illness and escape.

For the sake of caution, the two of them specifically went to see the three people who had been in the same Hospital Ward as "Ji Wuming."

"Big CEO."

"Jiafeimao."

"Cassette Tape."

Because their escape attempt failed, the three people had been locked in a dark room.

Now, because Shi Youxuan and Jian Yixin wanted to see them, they were released.

"Hmph! Useless things. I sacrificed myself to protect you, yet you were still caught and brought back." Big CEO let out a cold snort and raised his head proudly.

Jian Yixin and Jian Yining are fraternal twins; the two of them naturally look very similar, and since they had just been released from the dark room, their vision was not very good, so they mistook one for the other.

"Jiafeimao" looked full of admiration and said: "A Ning, it's only been a few hours, and you've already grown long hair? How did you do it? I'm so envious of you, I want long hair too..."

"Cassette Tape" was disdainful and retorted to "Jiafeimao": "What is it that you don't want? I don't think there is anything in this world that you don't want."

"Stinky Cassette Tape, was I talking to you? Do you need to be a busybody?" Jiafeimao retorted.

As long as the two of them started a fire, it would never end in less than an hour, and they were soon arguing in a mess.

Finally, it was only after asking "Big CEO" that they confirmed "Ji Wuming" was indeed Jian Yining.

They had finally found the place, but the person had already escaped.

Early morning.

"The Young Master is back."

"The Eldest Young Master is back."

The Jian Family servants shouted happily.

Jian Yining was back.

The whole family was reunited, and everyone was very joyful!

But Jin Wan'er did not remember what had happened during those few days.

Her memory of those few days was a complete blank; she could not remember anything, and thinking about it too much would cause a headache!

Yet she remembered her husband calling her name, saying "Wan'er, I love you." As for everything else that happened, she had no impression at all.

Jian Yining was the same.

He only remembered going to find Wan'er, and then waking up in the psychiatric hospital!

Both of them had forgotten everything that happened in the Swamp.

The matter was filled with strangeness and the unusual.
