Gou Liang choked with sobs and spoke while holding back his tears.
He said, "Uncle Ye, I didn't. I didn't hit these people. Today, I went out with … brother. When I got to the entrance of the community, I got off the car … I had something to do and was accidentally late. When I got to the school, I saw them gathered together and talking about me. "
"Someone pried open my key lock, stole my diary, and tore it up for others to see … How, how could they do that."
Gou Liang sobbed. His whole body was trembling because of anger, but he still continued to say, "They kept scolding me, saying that I was a pervert and wanted me to die. Wu Yong also scolded mother, scolded uncle Ye … I couldn't stand it anymore, so I argued with Wu Yong. I was too angry at that time, so I hit him. He, he also fought back … Later, I don't know why other people fought. Wu Yong was dragged over and beaten by them. I also saw Wu Yong spit out blood … I was very scared, so I ran out. Then the principal and the director came. "
"Mom … Uncle Ye, I know I did something wrong. I liked someone I shouldn't like."
"But I didn't want to do anything to embarrass the family. I really didn't! I just secretly … I admit that I'm not innocent in this matter. I'll bear the consequences! I didn't do it. Even if you beat me to death, I won't admit it! "
"Okay, uncle Ye believes you."
Ye Chao heard this and was slightly relieved. Finally, things didn't get to the worst point.
He avoided the important points and didn't mention that his stepson was gay. Instead, he looked at Mrs. Wu and said, "Mrs. Wu, you also heard it."
"Qi Cheng did hit your son, but look at his physical fitness. Compared to your son, who is weaker? Wu Yong won't go into shock because of a few hits from Xiao Cheng, right? If you don't believe me, I think the school surveillance record should be on the way. Whether the truth is like what Xiao Cheng said, I believe you will know the answer soon. I also watched Wu Yong grow up. He is now in emergency treatment. I can't care about the fact that he insulted my Ye family's child and beat Xiao Cheng like this. But I also hope that after he wakes up, he can be as courageous as Little Cheng and admit his mistakes. "
As he spoke, he no longer looked at Mrs. Wu, who had angrily turned her attention to the other students and parents after hearing that her son had been beaten to the point of vomiting blood. He informed Headmaster Chen that he was going to take Gou Liang to the hospital to understand his injuries.
Headmaster Chen naturally didn't dare to keep him. He only reminded him that the police were already involved, and there were still some work that required their cooperation.
Ye Chao said, "Of course. If you need my cooperation, I will not refuse."
After that, he led Cheng Li and her son to the director's office. He had already contacted the director on his way here and asked them to expedite the examination of Gou Liang's injuries. Now, the report had already been sent here.
Seeing them, the dean's face did not look too good. He invited them into the office and closed the door.
Ye Chao's heart sank. He asked, "Director Lin, how is Xiao Cheng's condition?"
Director Lin sighed and handed the report to him for him to read.
Sitting back in his seat, the director first looked at Gou Liang and then said, "According to the preliminary results, Qi Cheng's injuries are not serious, but his body's problems are far more than the injuries he suffered today."
"From this report, we can see that this is not the first time he has encountered a similar beating at school … Mr. Ye, you can take a look at the injuries on this child's body. It's not convenient for me to say anything else. I can only suggest that you arrange a more comprehensive and thorough health examination for this child as soon as possible. "
Ye Chao didn't pay too much attention to the report's conclusion that there were multiple soft tissue contusions. After all, the more serious Gou Liang's injuries were, the more advantageous it would be for him to escape responsibility for today's incident. It could also obscure the fact that he was gay.
But after listening to the report, he realized that things were far more serious than he had expected. Then, when he saw Gou Liang's scarred body after taking off his clothes, he knew that he wasn't overthinking it.
Even Cheng Li, who had been hesitating about how to ask the director about his homosexuality, exclaimed. She covered her mouth and tears fell down.
"How, how could this be … Xiao Cheng, you, why didn't you tell mom and your Uncle Ye? This is too much. How could they do this? How painful it must be … Xiao Cheng, tell mom who bullied you like this. I won't forgive him! "
The bruises didn't get better after two days. Instead, they became more terrible. Many of the wounds had turned black and purple. The wounds that weren't treated in time were seriously inflamed. It was a shocking sight. Even Cheng Li, who didn't value her son, was worried. Not to mention Ye Chao, who had already guessed the inside story.
He frowned. Seeing that Gou Liang just lowered his head and didn't say a word under Cheng Li's questioning, he was relieved. At the same time, he felt even more disappointed about his son's crime.
He asked Gou Liang to put on his clothes first. Then, he asked the director to arrange a full body examination for the child. Coincidentally, Headmaster Chen sent someone to ask Ye Chao and the other two to cooperate and give their statements. Ye Chao weighed the injury report in his hand. He asked Cheng Li to accompany Gou Liang for the examination while he dealt with the police.
System: Master, Ye Chao asked someone to go to the school and bring Ye Hui home. He also specifically asked for his phone.
Gou Liang, who was being manipulated by the doctor, was not surprised. However, the system was not. It was completely confused about the current situation. Unfortunately, its master was not interested in analyzing the game he played with Ye Chao and Ye Hui.
After Gou Liang finished his examination and was arranged to be hospitalized, Ye Chao was almost done with the matter. He even arranged for someone to send lunch over.
He explained the development of the situation to Cheng Li and her son. Out of everyone's expectations, the more than ten students who were seriously injured were found to be suffering from various degrees of acute heavy metal poisoning.
Wu Yong and the other three were the most seriously poisoned. They went into shock because of this. Furthermore, they were beaten to varying degrees with rib fractures and internal bleeding. They needed to be hospitalized for a long time to recover. As for those who were lightly injured and weren't poisoned, they had already testified that their injuries had nothing to do with Gou Liang. Instead, it was the poisoned students who suddenly went crazy and beat them up for no reason. These youths were indignant and fought back.
As for how to deal with this matter, he was currently discussing with the school and a third party. There would be a result soon.
As for the original owner's diary, Ye Chao returned it to Gou Liang.
Looking at Gou Liang who hurriedly stuffed the diary under the blanket and buried his head, Ye Chao said earnestly, "Little Cheng, you will be an adult in a year. Uncle believes that you have your own judgment and attitude."
"But uncle still hopes that you can think about it carefully. You are still young and don't have the ability to bear the pressure of society. This is especially true when it comes to relationships. In the next few decades, you will meet a lot of people. Maybe when you look back, you will find that the people you liked and cared about in the past are just so-so. At the end of the semester, you will be dividing your subjects into arts and science. After that, it will be the college entrance exam. I hope that you can understand that studying is your most important task right now. "
"This is related to your future. I hope that you will not be distracted by other things."
As a stepfather, Ye Chao was already more responsible than the average person when he said this.
Although he knew that Ye Chao was trying to restore the Ye family's position in his heart, or perhaps he was trying to make it up to him, Gou Liang still cooperated and said gratefully, "Thank you. I understand."
Cheng Li said, "A Chao, I just asked the director to help me contact an authoritative psychologist. Let the professional talk to Little Cheng. If you still have work to do, you can go back first. I can handle it here. "
Gou Liang's eyes suddenly widened.
Since there was a wound on his forehead, the doctor used gauze to wrap up his overly long hair. An exquisite and pale face was exposed. His red and swollen eyes were filled with shock and sadness. His eyelashes, which were wet from tears, became even more moist because of the mist that rose from his eyes.
When Gou Liang saw Cheng Li's hateful gaze, he lowered his head again. Ye Chao was stunned, then he frowned.
But in the end, he did not say anything bad about his wife. Instead, he said, "Work matters don't lack time. Since you asked the doctor to come, we should listen to the doctor's advice. After all, this is the most important two years for a child. Although I am not his biological father, I treat him like my own child. I hope that he can pull himself together. "
Cheng Li thought that he was only enduring Gou Liang's shameful deeds because of her. She was so touched that she could not be any more touched. She leaned on his shoulder and cried for a while.
The psychiatrist soon arrived. He and Gou Liang were alone in the ward for a whole hour before he left.
Ye Chao and his wife, who were waiting outside, greeted him. The psychiatrist smiled at them and invited them to the director's office that he had borrowed to talk.
As soon as they entered, Cheng Li could not wait to ask, "Doctor Li, how is my son's condition? Is he really gay? Can he still change? "
Doctor Li asked them to sit down. He sat down on the sofa across from them and said, "Mrs. Ye, I hope that you can understand one thing first."
"Homosexuality is not a disease. It is written into the human genes. It is not a choice that Qi Cheng made, and he has no control over it. In essence, sexual orientation cannot be changed through acquired means. Otherwise, it would be a distortion of nature. If you insist that he 'change', of course, he may make some changes to take care of your feelings, obey you, and accept your arrangements. But I hope that you know that this is not a solution to the problem, but an escape from the problem. At the same time, it will do more harm than good to the child's growth. "
"What... Doctor Li, you mean that we should just let him continue to be wrong? Then how will others look at him? How will they look at me and his stepfather? His classmates, his teachers - "
Ye Chao pulled Cheng Li, who wanted to stand up and argue with the psychiatrist. He smiled at him apologetically and said, "Please don't mind her. She is also worried about the child. How is Qi Cheng's condition? "
"It's okay. It's understandable." Doctor Li said, "What I said just now was a bit too harsh, but this is the key point that I want to communicate with the two of you."
"Based on my interactions with Qi Cheng in the past hour, there are not many problems with his psychological state. At least, he is healthier than most children and adults today. In other words, his values are very good. He has a very clear understanding and judgment of his own feelings and actions. Originally, I can't play any role in counseling this child's psychological state. Even if there are some small problems, he has the ability to adjust himself. But for the sake of the long term, there are some things that I still want to talk to the two of you about. "
Ye Chao was surprised to see that the psychiatrist actually showed a strong desire to protect his stepson in such a short period of time. He asked him to speak frankly.
Doctor Li looked at Cheng Li and said in a relaxed manner, "Before I came here, I had a three-minute conversation with Mrs. Ye. As for your previous worries about whether your child likes the same sex because he thinks he is a girl, I can answer you now. It's not like that. "
"Although Qi Cheng's hair is too long and he is prettier than the average girl, he doesn't have any gender barriers. I tested him. The reason why he has such a hairstyle is very likely because he overheard a conversation between you and your youngest son. At that time, you said that you wanted a daughter. If you had a daughter, you would especially love her. He did this to attract your attention. "
"I..."
Cheng Li was stunned. It was as if she just realized that she had never participated in or paid attention to her eldest son's growth. For a moment, she didn't know how to refute the doctor's words.
Doctor Li smiled at them and continued, "I can see that he really wants to be accepted by his family. He is a very soft and considerate child. Even if he likes boys, he only chooses to remain silent because he doesn't want his family to be criticized because of him. So, although I don't have much to offer him, in order to be responsible for the expensive consultation fee you paid me, I will say a few words. Don't put too much pressure on the child. A word of blame, or even a look of disappointment, would be a great psychological burden for him... "
[System: Master... You drugged him?]
[Just as I was happily watching the psychiatrist work with Ye Chao through the system's surveillance, Gou Liang raised his eyebrows and said, "For better or for worse, I am a king-level psychic ability user who won't die even if the world explodes. My soul power is gone. How could something as simple as giving him a little psychological suggestion be too difficult for me?]
[System:... This feeling of smugness must be an illusion. _ (: з _ ∠) _.]
When Cheng Li followed Ye Chao back to the ward, her attitude was much softer. She awkwardly asked her eldest son about some things in school. Seeing that he wasn't willing to talk about it, she couldn't help but feel anxious.
She had always known that her son's grades were terrible and couldn't compare to Ye Hui's. Or rather, he had always been inferior to Ye Hui since he was young. She had long since given up on him. But if she really wanted to argue, she actually knew nothing about her son's true situation. This made her feel even more guilty, and she desperately wanted her son to be honest with her.
Ye Chao patted her shoulder and said, "Alright, don't ask about these things. It's not a good memory anyway."
"Little Cheng, I will seek justice for you this time. But you have to be mentally prepared. The matter of you being... has already been publicized. Uncle can't make everyone shut up. It's inevitable that there will be rumors in the future. If you need it, uncle can change to a better school for you … "
Gou Liang shook his head and said, "Thank you uncle, but there's no need to trouble yourself. There's nothing that can't be told. In any case, it won't be worse than before. I can get used to it. "
What a joke. He had to be wherever his target was.
Ye Chao's eyes flashed with deep thought. Then, he told him about the consensus he had with the school about today's incident when he was talking to the psychiatrist.
From the surveillance footage, it was just as Ye Chao had guessed. Wu Yong had pried open his stepson's desk and stolen the diary. He was also the one who had insulted and provoked him. Even if he was discharged from the hospital, Ye Chao wouldn't let him return to Lecheng. His original words were: "This kind of morally deficient student, no matter how good his family is, doesn't need education. He needs help from his family or even a third party. I can't stand my son being classmates with this kind of person. "
From the statements of the students who were mildly poisoned, the police found out that most of the poisoned students, including Wu Yong, had met at an abandoned chemical plant a day ago. They planned to teach Gou Liang and Zhan Yongzhe a lesson today. Although it wasn't something to be proud of, this kind of truth reduced the school's responsibility to a minimum.
With the metal poisoning as the scapegoat, the parents of this group of students had no reason to ask anyone to take responsibility for their children's injuries. It wasn't suitable for the police to interfere too much and agreed to let the parents discuss a solution in private.
The sports students were also asked about the fact that they often bullied Gou Liang at school. Ye Chao firmly asked the school to deal with them severely, including the three people who had just come out of the emergency room.
The school had already agreed.
Gou Liang was surprised at first, but then he revealed a bright smile.
"Thank you, Uncle Ye."
These words were spoken from the bottom of his heart.
This kind of smile was very infectious. Ye Chao smiled back at him and told him not to be so distant. He also told him that no matter what trouble he encountered in the future, he could tell him and he would do his best to help him.
Gou Liang didn't refuse. When it was almost time, he asked them to go back.
He said, "Mom, I'm fine. I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere. I'm just staying in the hospital for observation for a night. I don't need anyone to accompany me. You should go back. It's time for my brother to leave school. He won't be happy if he can't find you at home. Uncle Ye, you too. You still have to go to work tomorrow. I shouldn't have troubled you for the whole day... "
Cheng Li only then noticed the time. Thinking of her youngest son, she became anxious and didn't say anything about staying.
Before Ye Chao and Cheng Li left, they turned back to look at Gou Liang. The latter didn't expect him to turn back. He didn't have time to retract the disappointment and sadness in his eyes. When he saw his stepson smile at him awkwardly and say to him, "Drive carefully on the road," he sighed in his heart.
In the past, he had no interest in understanding his stepson. After living under the same roof for more than ten years, he knew very little about him except for his gloomy and unsociable behavior. He didn't expect that his stepson wasn't a fish in a pond...
When he thought of his own son, Ye Hui, Ye Chao suddenly frowned.
As soon as they left, Gou Liang burrowed under the blanket. He could no longer control his joyful expression.
[The System struggled to emerge from a pile of pink bubbles. It was frightened by the fickle master. It laughed dryly and asked, "Ding, Master, are you... very happy?"]
Of course he was happy! Today was the happiest day in his life!
Almost impatiently and ostentatiously, he revealed his private account to the System. ↓

100,000 soul coins ah ah ah ah ah ah!! It was 100 soul coins more than the reward for completing the task. Oh, oh, oh, oh, this only purified less than one-third of the original owner's negative soul power!

The System was crying in the starry sky.
