Chapter 240 - Slap! (1)
Translator: Sissy That Walk
The nursing home that Fan Da and Di Qiuhe arranged for Di Bian was actually very luxurious for a nursing home, Di Bian resided in a garden villa, a professional medical team was by his side 24/7, as for the menu, he enjoyed different courses every single day.
However, Di Bian felt he couldn’t breathe there, he was unhappy. Because no one talked to him, even the questions he asked them would get ignored, he couldn’t contact anyone. He was under surveillance 24/7, even when he went to the bathroom, he felt so depressed.
“I want a coffee.” Di Bian asked the medical carer with indifference.
The medical carer poured him a glass of water and retreated to her old spot behind his wheelchair.
Di Bian felt offended, he grabbed the glass and threw it on the ground, fuming, “I said coffee, you heard me! I didn’t ask for water, do you understand me or what?”
The medical carer cleaned the glass on the floor, and poured him another glass, she did not even make one eye contact with Di Bian this whole process.
Di Bian, who had not talked to anyone for a long time exploded, he felt he was on the brink of a collapse, he threw the glass on the ground again, then he stared at the carer like when a predator spotted its prey, “Talk to me! Are you a dummy? I said talk to me!”
The carer pressed the call bell in fright, soon a group of carers marched towards them.
Seeing that, Di Bian’s eyes widened, he screamed, “No, I’m fine, don’t come near me! I’m not having a headache, I don’t need to calm down, don’t! I don’t need an injection.”
Of course everyone ignored him. They grabbed him and put him back to his wheelchair, one went to clean the glass on the floor, two grabbed him and pined him down, the other one produced a needle tubing and gave him an injection.
Soon Di Bian stopped struggling, he slumped into his wheelchair, before he passed out he murmured, “I need to see Fan Da, let me see Fan Da, I want to see my son Di Qiuhe, what you are doing to me is abusing, let go of me, let go... of... me...”
After the injection, the carers carried him back to the house.
Di Bian completely shut down, he stopped feeling anything under the effect of the injection, he knew they were carrying him back to the house where was like a grave to him, he would very much like to scream and refuse, but all him limbs were soft and he couldn’t utter a word.
Di Bian was put onto bed, the carers and doctors began to run a check-up on him.

Di Bian felt he was no different than a piece of meat, he felt his clothes were taken off, several equipment were connected on his body, nothing could be heard except the machine. Di Bian was falling apart, he struggled to say, “You are all monsters... ...”
The doctor who was looking at the machine took a glimpse at him, “Monsters who are saving your life?”
That was the first sentence that Di Bian had heard for a really long time, Di Bian felt encouraged, he was so excited to talk more like he’d grabbed a life-saving straw, “Let me out! I’m in perfect health, I don’t need this, I need to see Di Qiuhe, tell him he can’t do this to me, he can’t!”
“Today is the 7th of September.” the doctor said this to him while he was keeping track of the data on the machine, he asked others in the room to leave and he looked at Di Bian, “Today you will have visitors, cherish this opportunity say something nice to your visitors, you know, it depends on this visit that whether you can walk away from this gate.” with that he turned around and slammed the door.
Di Bian was too weak to stop him, he just stared at the wall and listened to the “beep beep” sound of the machine, his face turned crooked, “Visitors? Today? Who could that be? Qiuhe? It must be Qiuhe!”
Di Bian waited in torment lying in bed for a whole day, finally his visitors came at dinner time.
“Fan Da? Why are you here?” asked Di Bian in surprise, he looked around and frowned, “Where is Di Qiuhe? Why isn’t he here? Ask him to come to see me now!”
Fan Da looked away, Hu Zhao walked towards Di Bian and slapped him on the face.
Di Bian was caught off guard, his face turned to other side due to the slap, and he could taste the blood in his mouth. He fumed and threw the food from the table to the ground.
“This slap is to teach you to have some manners,” said Fan Da, he looked around and said, “Di Bian, looks like you are living in such a lovely place.”
Di Bian took a few deep breaths and sat straight, he spat on the ground and looked at Hu Zhao, “You traitor! You betrayed me, how dare you!”
Seeing that, Fan Da shook his head and said, “Continue.”
Hu Zhao nodded and grabbed Di Bian on his collar, he punched Di Bian on his chest.
Di Bian, who was suffering severe body pains already, couldn’t take the punch. Soon he rubbed his chest and groaned.
“The slap and the punch are both for my daughter, Lianxiu.” Fan Da looked at Di Bian in disgust, and continued, “You beat Xiulian twice, the first time was not long after Qiuhe was born. You were desperate to become a manager in Huangdu, but you were refused by your father time and again, you didn’t want to give up, and you asked Lianxiu for her dowry money so you can establish a new company stealthily, but Lianxiu refused you as well. In order to stop you act rashly, Lianxiu told your father about this and she suggested you that you should listen to your father and start to work as a clerk, so you could have a more profound understanding of the company. You just turned utterly discomfited and slapped her.”
Hearing that Di Bian was shocked, and Fan Da continued, “The second time was when Lianxiu got pregnant for the second time, you were already having an affair with Qin Li, you were so sick of Lianxiu who always suggested you should do the right thing, you punched her after you got drunk, and that caused Lianxiu’s miscarriage. Lianxiu just told everyone else that she accidentally stumbled and fell, and she was disheartened by you after that, she asked for a divorce in the presence of your father, she only wanted Qiuhe and her dowry that I gave her when she married you.
