Sister Hong's eyes reddened as she looked at Ou Yunchen's pathetic state.
She turned her head away, not wanting to watch him speak.
Ou Yunchen had never been drunk before, at least not in front of Sister Hong, he was always sober.
But now, he had drunk himself sick at the Wang family's place…
Sister Hong: "Stop the car, stop it quickly!"
As expected, the driver pulled over, and Ou Yunchen immediately pushed open the car door, falling to his knees with a thud and starting to vomit.
Sister Hong: "Why are you torturing yourself like this! It's just two paparazzi who died!"
Ou Yunchen: "They shouldn't have sacrificed themselves for nothing…"
Sister Hong: "So what! They've taken plenty of ill-gotten gains before, haven't they? Two scoundrels who've done all sorts of evil, they deserve to die!"
Sister Hong helped Ou Yunchen up. He took off his suit, wiped his mouth, and threw it on the ground.
Ou Yunchen: "Don't cry. To gain the Wang family's trust, I have to do this."
Sister Hong: "What trust do you need anymore? They're capable of murder to silence people. Do you really think you're a god! How capable are you to fight against the people in power!"
Ou Yunchen: "Did you find evidence of who set the fire and killed Fan Zhijie and the others?"
Sister Hong: "No!"
Ou Yunchen: "Godmother, please, you have to find it, can you?"
Ou Yunchen never begged anyone, yet he was begging for these two paparazzi…
Sister Hong: "Is it worth it?"
Ou Yunchen: "It is!"

And so, Ou Yunchen was constantly called to accompany them for drinks, treated like a dog to be played with.
Even when it was time for the intensive training, Ou Yunchen had to skip class.
Yang Danzhou: "You must come to class with me today. The first three days were taught by other instructors, and you might have gotten away with it, but today is Yun Qingyang's class!"
Ou Yunchen: "I have something to do."
Yang Danzhou: "Are you crazy!!! You dare to skip Yun Qingyang's class? Do you believe he can get you kicked out in minutes! All your classes from the past two years will be wasted!!!"
Ou Yunchen: "Please ask for leave for me."
Yang Danzhou grabbed Ou Yunchen, angered, and directly pulled him towards a corner of the hallway.
Yang Danzhou: "Don't think I don't know! You're going to the Wang family!!! Right?"
Ou Yunchen: "If you know, then don't ask."
Yang Danzhou: "Look at yourself! What do you look like! You're drunk every day! Even a beggar is cleaner than you!"
Ou Yunchen: "It's just business."
Yang Danzhou: "Please come to your senses, okay? The Wang family will never use you!!! They just want to see you become their dog! The day they're no longer happy with you, they'll throw you out!!!"
Ou Yunchen: "Yes, I just want to be their dog, a loyal dog…"
Yang Danzhou: "You!!!"
Yang Danzhou took a deep breath. She really couldn't stand it anymore. If she hadn't personally witnessed how the Wang family turned a normal person into a madman, she wouldn't be so anxious to save Ou Yunchen.
Yang Danzhou: "Mr. Ou, the Wang family will not agree to put our medicine on the medical insurance list."
Ou Yunchen froze. He had never mentioned this to anyone. How did Yang Danzhou know…
Yang Danzhou: "It's for your friend, isn't it."
Ou Yunchen fell silent.
Yang Danzhou: "I can see that you have a very good relationship with your friend. He is lucky to have a brother like you."
Yang Danzhou was very clever. This one sentence opened Ou Yunchen's heart.
Ou Yunchen sighed, turned around, leaned against the window frame, closed his eyes, feeling a tightness in his chest, unable to say anything.
Yang Danzhou: "The medicine we developed is not just for beauty; in fact, all scars can be repaired."
"And our research team once hoped to become an approved medical insurance product, benefiting more people…"
Ou Yunchen: "Why didn't you do it?"
Yang Danzhou: "How do you know we haven't tried…"
Ou Yunchen: "I apologize. Without your consent, I really wanted the Wang family to approve it."
Yang Danzhou: "If you only rely on drinking and giving them money, you will never be considered one of them."
Ou Yunchen: "Because of certain things, they are very hostile towards me, and, my relationship with Yan Shizong is very bad."
Yang Danzhou: "Don't waste your energy. Our medicine is already very expensive. If it can't be covered by medical insurance, then so be it."
Yang Danzhou patted Ou Yunchen on the shoulder, signaling him to come to class with her, but Ou Yunchen still shook his head.
In the end, Yang Danzhou reluctantly went to class alone. As for Ou Yunchen, he really didn't want to give up Z's wish.
If more people could use this special medicine, those heroes in the flames, those ordinary people in accidents…
Perhaps their disfigured faces from burns would no longer prevent them from showing their terrible appearances to the world.
What Ou Yunchen wanted to treat was perhaps not Z's appearance, but his spirit.
As a brother, he could protect his former comrade's wish, and he would have no regrets in this life…
Yang Danzhou arrived at the classroom alone, and soon Yun Qingyang began to call roll.
Yun Qingyang: "Ou Yunchen."
The room fell silent. No one raised their hand to say "present."
Yun Qingyang looked up and scanned the entire room, calling Ou Yunchen's name again.
Everyone began to whisper, thinking that this student was too daring, having not attended a single class during this intensive training.
Yun Qingyang: "Take this as a warning. Missing classes means you will never be able to attend Bay University again."
Yun Qingyang: "Yang Danzhou."
Yang Danzhou immediately raised her hand and answered "present," but she was extremely nervous because she desperately wanted to defend Ou Yunchen. The school shouldn't expel such an excellent student!!!
Yun Qingyang: "Please sit down."
Yang Danzhou: "Professor, I…"
Yun Qingyang: "Sit down first. We can discuss it after class."
Yang Danzhou: "It's not…"
Yun Qingyang: "Alright, class begins now…"
Yang Danzhou was still standing. Everyone in the room, except for Yun Qingyang who had turned his back, was staring at her.
At this moment, Ren Xiaoguang darted to Yang Danzhou's side and tugged at her clothes, urging her to sit down.
Ren Xiaoguang: "I will help you ask the professor about Ou Yunchen's situation. Sit down quickly, don't disrupt the class!"
Yang Danzhou looked at Ren Xiaoguang and then, relieved, sat down in her chair.
Ren Xiaoguang: "I know about Ou Yunchen's situation."
Yang Danzhou: "But about the professor…"
Ren Xiaoguang: "We'll talk after class."
Yang Danzhou nodded, but her mind was no longer on the lecture…
