He walked into the adjacent ward. A doctor was still treating Qin Er Ge, who had an IV drip in his arm.
Qin Gang, his head struck hard, was severely injured and remained in a daze.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but clench his fist, a murderous aura welling up in his eyes.
He was unsure whether this was an accident or a premeditated incident. If it was the latter, it required extreme caution.
"Dr. Wang, how long will my second brother likely be unconscious?"
"It's hard to say, it depends on his constitution."
Dr. Wang said, "Fortunately, they are all superficial injuries, and the wound on his head isn't too serious. I think he should be fine by tomorrow morning!"
"There's no need for so many of you to stay here. Just leave one or two to take care of him. The rest can go back."
After Dr. Wang finished speaking, Qin Yang immediately turned and said, "Xiao Chuan, you and everyone else should go back. I'll stay here alone."
"That's fine!"
Qin Chuan thought for a moment, "Let's all go home first. We'll discuss everything in the morning."
Since the boss had spoken, the others hesitated for a moment before choosing to leave.
A group of people walked out of the hospital and started their cars.
Qin Chuan didn't choose to return to the small apartment he shared with Li Ya. Instead, he drove to the property development site, where there were always well-decorated houses available.
However, upon arriving, it was clear that no one was sleepy, and everyone's faces were grim.
Because on the way back, Zheng Chengdao had called the subordinates he had sent out, asking if they had found any trace of Wu Ya. The reply was no.
Wu Ya was nowhere to be found at his residence, and no one knew where he had gone, or if he was hiding out of fear.
"Boss, if you ask me, why don't we just take our men and find Han Shihong, force him to hand over Wu Ya?" Yao Dong suggested. "Wu Ya is his subordinate, he definitely knows. Maybe Wu Ya is hiding at his place."
"No, that method won't work," Zheng Chengdao shook his head. "Whether Han Shihong knows or not, he won't admit it. He can completely shift the blame to Wu Ya's personal actions."
"Doing this won't bring us any benefits. Instead, it will attract criticism and ridicule, damaging our company's image."
"After all, it was our side that got beaten this time, and it was over something like a massage. Once the news spreads too far, it will affect the entire company's image."
"Qin Gang is the boss's own brother, with a special status. And with the boss's business growing bigger and bigger, we can't be as reckless as before, doing whatever we want."
After Zheng Chengdao's explanation, the room fell into silence.
Qin Chuan's eyes were filled with relief. Zheng Chengdao had made significant progress since following him, increasingly exhibiting the demeanor of a great leader.
He considered all aspects of matters, no longer solely relying on brute force and martial prowess like before.
This was a very positive development.
"Then, are we just going to let that scoundrel get away with beating someone and escape justice?" Bai Xiaoguang asked anxiously.
"If that Wu Ya and the guy who did the beating have truly left Yongnan County, then we'll just have to accept this loss!" Qin Chuan said slowly. "It can be considered a lesson for my second brother!"
"But..."
At this point, Qin Chuan's tone suddenly changed, becoming extremely sharp. "If Wu Ya and the guy who did the beating haven't left, and as long as our people find them, I will make them pay double the price!"
"Tomorrow morning, bring the three people from the hospital. They all saw the face of the guy who did the beating, they will surely recognize him."
"Keep a close eye on Han Shihong and Han Shifei's movements!"
Everyone nodded.
"Boss, are those three guys in the hospital from the same village as you?" Yao Dong suddenly asked.
"Yes, from the same village."
Qin Chuan looked slightly confused, not understanding why Yao Dong asked this question.
Yao Dong seemed hesitant, as if he had something to say.
"If you have something to say, just say it!" Qin Chuan snapped.
After being scolded, Yao Dong seemed to relax a lot, chuckling, "I saw your conversation with them just now, and I felt those three guys were unreliable!"
"More than unreliable, two of those three guys are completely untrustworthy companions," Bai Xiaoguang immediately chimed in after Yao Dong finished speaking. His temper was even more irritable than Yao Dong's, and his words were more direct.
"Look at their attitude when they were talking to you just now. If I were you, Boss, I would have slapped them across the face long ago!"
"Who do they think they are? They can't even ask properly, and they immediately demand a leadership position. They even look down on ordinary employees. This is ridiculous!"
Qin Chuan looked at the furious Bai Xiaoguang and Yao Dong, and a smile played on his lips.
Indeed, the public's eye is discerning. Everyone has a scale in their heart. Whether a person is reliable can be roughly judged by their behavior and the way they speak.
"Boss, we absolutely cannot recruit such people into the company, let alone assign them important positions!" Yao Dong stated.
"Even if you do bring them in, us brothers will make sure they can't stay."
"Haha!!!"
This time, Qin Chuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Don't worry, those kinds of people aren't qualified to join our company."
"My conversation with them tonight was purely out of consideration for our shared village background."
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoguang and Yao Dong both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, it's already past three in the morning. There's still a good amount of time before dawn. Everyone go get some sleep!" Qin Chuan glanced at the time.
The group dispersed.
A few hours later, it was dawn outside.
On his way to the hospital, Qin Chuan received a call from Li Ya. He had left in the middle of the night without returning home, and Li Ya was very worried.
Qin Chuan didn't tell her about Qin Er Ge being injured. He casually gave a reason, saying there was a problem with the electronic factory's machines, which had now been resolved.
Li Ya finally relaxed and hung up after a few more words.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Qin Er Ge had woken up. His elder brother, Qin Yang, had already bought breakfast and was feeding him with a spoon.
Zhou Er Wa, Wu A Ping, and Xie Jun were also present, eating breakfast together.
Seeing Qin Chuan suddenly push the door open with his companions, the people eating breakfast quickly stood up from their stools, looking flustered.
"Xiao... Xiao Chuan..."
On the hospital bed, Qin Er Ge, with a cast on his arm and bandages on his head, had lost his usual arrogant demeanor. His eyes darted around evasively.
Qin Chuan's expression was as dark as water, and he walked closer step by step.
Although he hadn't spoken a word, the atmosphere in the ward became increasingly oppressive, making it difficult to breathe.
Suddenly, Qin Chuan raised his arm and fiercely slapped Qin Er Ge, causing a gasp of surprise...
