Chapter 160 Hou Liangping in Despair! Even Crying Has Its Timing!
Keep indoors.
Hou Liangping lay on the bed, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep.
He had actually woken up a long time ago, but he just didn't want to get out of bed.
After graduating from Handong University, he was assigned to the Economic Investigation Department of the Handong Procuratorate.
Later, their separation due to living apart was detrimental to their relationship.
His father-in-law, Zhong Zhengguo, transferred him to the Anti-Corruption Bureau in Yanjing.
After so many years of fighting corruption, he has arrested quite a few corrupt officials.
It is perfectly clear what being transferred to detention for investigation means.
There's no way you'll leave the detention room without confessing.
but……
He still harbored a glimmer of hope.
Because his father-in-law is Zhong Zhengguo.
So how can someone in such a high position and with so much power simply fall from grace?
Moreover, behind his father-in-law is the high-ranking Elder Ge!
Therefore, he firmly believed that as long as he delayed, things would definitely change.
however……
Anyone who has ever received an IV drip knows this.
With various liquids being injected into the body, most of which are water, the urge to urinate will inevitably arise sooner or later.
at the moment.
Hou Liangping was not only starving, but also had an unbearable urge to urinate.
"No! No!"
"If I keep going like this, I'm afraid I'll ruin my kidneys before I starve to death."
"I'm only twenty-eight years old, so young. If I damage my kidneys, wouldn't that be the end of me?"
Thinking of this, Hou Liangping threw off the covers, got up, and raised his hand.
"report!"
Having been involved in anti-corruption work for so many years, we are quite familiar with the rules and regulations in detention rooms.
Everything must be reported; you can't just do whatever you want.
"Say!"
"I want to go to the toilet!"
"can!"
Hou Liangping endured the aches and pains all over his body and sat up.
It's like not exercising for a long time and then suddenly playing a basketball game.
hiss~
Hou Liangping gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he put on soft-soled slippers.
I finally managed to get to the bathroom.
She instinctively turned to close the door, but the caregiver blocked her way.
"What are you going to do?"
"I……"
Hou Liangping was embarrassed and awkward.
I almost forgot, this is a detention room, not a bathroom at home.
privacy?
What privacy?
It wasn't just someone watching from behind.
There's even a camera installed in the corner of the bathroom ceiling!
Those in the monitoring room could clearly see everything.
this moment.
Besides feeling sore all over, Hou Liangping also felt uncomfortable all over.
I don't know if it's due to family genetics or because I was a picky eater when I was young and didn't get enough nutrition.
Or perhaps it was because I had secretly read those inappropriate books and magazines that my father had hidden away too early.
He was particularly insecure about his development in that area.
Whether you're studying at school or later starting work.
He has a habit of never standing too close to other people when he urinates.
If there are too many people at the urinals, he will look for a squat toilet.
If there's no squat toilet, he'd rather light a cigarette and wait a little longer.
You either wait until someone comes out of the squat toilet, or wait until there are fewer people at the urinals.
He absolutely refuses to let anyone see his small size.
But now...
Or they'll just pee without caring about the shame.
Or, even more embarrassingly, you might wet your pants.
Unable to hold back any longer, Hou Liangping finally made his choice.
However, he was quite cunning and chose to lean forward and hold onto the wall with his left hand.
This way, you can both pretend to be sickly and also have some concealment.
Unfortunately, the privacy was preserved.
But a burning, stinging pain sent goosebumps up all over his body.
Furthermore, the waterline is extremely fine.
It's like a syringe squirting water out.
This scene startled him.
But just as she was about to shout it out, she felt embarrassed.
"Could it be because I took two Viagra pills last night, and the medication was too strong, causing some side effects? Or is it a urinary tract infection?"
Look at those thin water lines.
The intense bloating and pain, coupled with the persistent feeling of not being able to urinate, is truly agonizing.
Even more devastating is...
The caregiver standing behind urged impatiently:
"Aren't you done peeing yet? It's been almost two minutes."
"I……"
Hou Liangping blushed and said, "Not yet, I'm not feeling well, could you please have the on-duty doctor come over?"
The caregiver picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Intention room 205, the target is feeling unwell and requests to see a doctor!"
"receive."
Waited for a while.
Hou Liangping finally finished urinating.
My arms, which I used to brace myself against the wall, have gone numb.
With difficulty, I turned around after lifting the zipper, washed my hands, and slowly tried to go back to bed.
But before I could even sit down, the door opened and the on-duty doctor arrived carrying a case.
"Huh, why is it a female doctor now?"
"This is the doctor on the day shift today."
"day shift?"
Hou Liangping was stunned.
Thinking back, I spent so much time getting injections and IV drips last night, and then I took a nap.
It's probably broad daylight by now.
In this detention room, which has no windows, no sunlight, and is lit 24 hours a day, it is truly difficult to distinguish between day and night.
"Tell me, where does it hurt?"
After the female doctor sat down, she skillfully took Hou Liangping's temperature and blood pressure.
"I...I feel pain in all my bones and muscles, and...and when I urinate, not only is it very painful, but the urine stream is also very thin..."
Hou Liangping lowered his head, too ashamed to face anyone.
"I read last night's medical log. You took Viagra produced in the US, didn't you?"
"Yes, it is."
Now that things had come to this, Hou Liangping dared not hide it any longer.
Ignoring your illness and avoiding medical treatment will only make your condition worse.
"That's a prescription drug. You didn't go to the hospital for a checkup and just took it on your own?"
"Ah."
"And you ate more than one?"
"Just two."
"Wow, two... Do you know that some people can't even handle one, and you're taking two!"
The female doctor sighed and shook her head.
"Someone as young as you should go to a proper hospital for examination and treatment if you really have a problem in that area, instead of taking medicine on your own!"
"Do you really think you can just take any drug imported from the US? This kind of drug not only has serious side effects, but it is also very likely to make you dependent on it."
"This dependence is not only physical, but more psychological. It will make you lose confidence if you don't take the medicine, and the more insecure you are, the more you want to take it."
As she spoke, the female doctor put on her stethoscope.
After listening to Hou Liangping's heartbeat and breathing, and checking his blood pressure, he said in a calm tone:
"Your condition is a typical side effect of medication."
"After taking the medicine, I felt dizzy and my blood pressure was low, but I usually felt fine after a good night's sleep."
"However, the soreness in the limbs will take a long time to recover."
Hou Liangping looked up and asked urgently, "Can my problem of painful urination and low urine volume also be cured?"
The female doctor hesitated for two or three seconds.
"Prolonged excessive congestion can lead to damage or even necrosis of soft tissues, like wrapping it up and restricting the urethra."
"You can imagine that if a small water pipe is squeezed tightly, it cannot drain smoothly, and the water column will naturally become thin and long. As for whether it can be restored, I don't know."
"Viagra has not been on the market for long. It was originally developed to treat cardiovascular diseases, but it has been used to treat erectile dysfunction. As for the side effects and other complications, they are not yet clear!"
"..."
Hou Liangping felt like the sky had fallen.
He really wanted to rush out, find Cai Chenggong, and give him a good beating.
Damn it, what kind of medicine did they send?
But then I thought about it.
Regardless of whether they could break through, Cai Chenggong cannot be entirely blamed for this.
When delivering the medicine, Cai Chenggong said to take one pill twenty minutes in advance, as it would be particularly effective.
It's because I don't quite trust what Cai Chenggong says.
He was also too eager to prove to his wife, Zhong Xiaoai, that he was in good shape.
So instead of eating one, I ate two.
In addition, their 'innate conditions' were not very good to begin with.
As a result, the aftereffects are now far too severe.
"Let me prescribe you some anti-inflammatory medicine!"
"Drink more water and urinate more often. Maybe in a couple of days, the condition will improve."
As the female doctor spoke, she began to write a prescription.
Hou Liangping asked anxiously with a mournful face, "If things can't be improved, won't I be stuck like this for the rest of my life?"
The female doctor shook her head and said, "It's not that serious. If there is indeed soft tissue necrosis, you can have surgery."
"Remove it? Wouldn't that make it... even smaller?"
Hou Liangping was shocked.
"You can also choose to have implants; the technology for that is available now."
"..."
Hou Liangping was stunned and speechless.
I thought to myself, what good is a fake if it's fake?
Just when he was in a daze.
The female doctor then delivered another blow.
"Don't stay in bed any longer. Drink plenty of water after taking your medicine!"
After saying that, the female doctor got up, picked up her suitcase, and left.
Hou Liangping, who had originally planned to continue feigning illness and resting, was now completely dumbfounded.
"Ugh, can I... can I eat? I'm so hungry!"
"Of course! How can you have the energy to answer questions if you're not well-fed?"
Hou Liangping gave a bitter smile.
soon.
The single bed was lifted up and tucked away against the wall.
A meal consisting of two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and a soup was also served.
Hungry Hou Liangping was about to sit down and start eating.
The delivery person suddenly asked:
"Take a look at these dishes. Are there any that you can't eat or are restricted from eating?"
Hou Liangping quickly glanced at it.
Stir-fried celery and shredded pork, stir-fried pork slices with tomatoes and wood ear mushrooms, plus stir-fried shredded potatoes and seaweed and egg drop soup.
With this combination, it seems like anyone could eat it; there's no such thing as being unable to eat it.
However, he soon noticed.
The person delivering the food had something wrong with the palm of their right hand as they held the tray.
Upon closer inspection, a line of text was written inside.
"You and Elder Zhong confess your crimes, and protect Zhong Xiao'ai at all costs!"
As soon as I finished looking at it, the delivery person put the food tray on the table.
"If you don't have any dietary restrictions, then eat up!"
After saying that, the delivery person clenched his fist, stepped back, and stood to the side with his hands behind his back.
It was obvious that this guy had taken the opportunity to wipe the words off his palm.
"What do you mean?"
"Make me and my father-in-law confess our sins, and save Xiao Ai?"
"Whose idea is this? It certainly wasn't my father-in-law!"
“The fact that Xiao Ai and I were forcibly brought here and detained proves that he must have been arrested as well.”
"Then... there's only one possibility: it's Elder Ge! It must be him. Only he has such power to get the people here to tip me off!"
"Only he could make the decision to protect Xiao Ai, not my father-in-law! But... my father-in-law is so powerful and influential, why didn't we try to protect him?"
Hou Liangping was deep in thought.
The caregiver suddenly said:
"This isn't a fancy restaurant, so just make do with what you have. This is all the conditions here!"
The moment I heard the words "high-end restaurant".
Hou Liangping suddenly realized what was happening.
They suddenly realized that their every move had been watched.
Hou Liangping picked up a plastic spoon and began to eat.
But just a moment ago I was starving, now I have no appetite at all.
Back then at Handong University.
He knew that Gao Yuliang's daughter, Gao Fangfang, had always liked him.
But Zhong Xiaoai's father is Zhong Zhengguo, who holds a higher official position.
In order to make progress faster, he cleverly chose Zhong Xiaoai.
But now...
Old Ge only cared about Zhong Xiaoai, completely disregarding his own life or death.
Perhaps in his eyes...
I am just a nobody, my death is nothing to regret!
“If I confess, I will say that I colluded with my childhood friend Cai to drag my father-in-law down with me, and that it has nothing to do with Xiao Ai.”
"With my father-in-law's support and Elder Ge's help, Xiao Ai can stay safe and sound, but what about me?"
"Having received such a large sum of money, he'll likely be sentenced to at least ten years in prison!"
"Not only is her reputation ruined and her future destroyed, but even before she's released from prison, Xiao Ai will definitely remarry."
"And what can I do after I get out of prison, given my background in law and political science? I can't get into the system, I can't become a lawyer..."
Hou Liangping, increasingly desperate, soon couldn't hold back his tears.
If I had known this would happen, I would have been better off with Gao Fangfang back then.
Her father, Gao Yuliang, is now the secretary of Luzhou City, and he is expected to rise further in the future.
I am not even as good as Qi Tongwei, who knelt down and proposed to Liang Lu in public on the playground back then.
Although the Liang family fell, Qi Tongwei remained unscathed and could continue to improve with the help of Teacher Gao.
"Why are you crying?"
"It's not like you're being executed, hurry up and eat!"
"You have five minutes to eat, and even crying counts!"
Upon hearing this, Hou Liangping cried even harder.
This is clearly a death warning!
Either confess and go to jail, or die an 'accidental' death...
