Uncle Three was still worried and handed over the card, "Second Sister, you take it. Since Xiaobo has entered the industry and made money, that's his ability, but there is still considerable risk. Take this money and eat more nutritious food. Don't just save money and exhaust yourselves!"
Mother Yang still refused, "Xiaobo has really prepared all this money. You can rest assured. We have been eating well and sleeping well these days. Look, I've even gained some weight."
As she was speaking, Ye Xiaoxuan stepped in with a thermal bucket, and upon seeing the room full of people, she was startled. But she quickly calmed down, "Auntie, the relatives have come!"
Mother Yang instantly beamed with joy and said happily, "Xiaoxuan, come in quickly!"
Xiaoxuan walked in, saw Yang Bo standing at the edge of the crowd, and nodded slightly at him. Then she walked to the foot of the bed and handed the thermal bucket to Mother Yang, "Auntie, I just brought some chicken soup for Uncle. Here you go, I'll be off now!"
"Don't leave so soon!" Mother Yang took the bucket and pointed to a few people, introducing them, "This is Elder Aunt, Second Aunt..."
After introducing everyone, Mother Yang said to the group, "During these few days in the hospital, Xiaobo has been busy outside. Thanks to Xiaoxuan for taking care of us!"
Everyone looked at Ye Xiaoxuan. She had delicate features and a pretty appearance, and in her white nurse's uniform, she looked even more charming. Everyone smiled, understanding Mother Yang's meaning.
Second Aunt even said with a smile, "The girl is really beautiful, and she's just the right age. They match well!"
Despite having some plans in mind, Ye Xiaoxuan, being a young girl, felt embarrassed when it was said in public. Her face turned red, and she ran out, "Auntie, I still have patients to attend to. I'll be off now!"
As Ye Xiaoxuan ran out, the ward was filled with laughter. Second Aunt looked at Yang Bo, "Xiaobo, you're really something! You've already set your sights on a girl so quickly!"
Yang Bo felt a bit helpless. He knew what his mother meant, and she had mentioned it more than once. However, he felt that he was still young and didn't need to rush into such matters.
Yuan Yezhi, carrying several boxes of nutritional supplements, was walking down the hospital corridor, looking for the ward. She saw a young nurse running by with a red face and quickly stopped her, "Hello, could you tell me how to get to Ward 208?"
"Just go straight ahead!"
The young nurse said this and ran off, which made Yuan Yezhi a bit curious. She didn't know that the young nurse had stopped a few steps away and looked back.
Opening the door, Yuan Yezhi was taken aback. She stood there, watching as a group of people turned to look at her, and finally saw Yang Bo. She smiled awkwardly, "I'm Yang Bo's friend, here to visit Uncle."
Yang Bo didn't expect Yuan Yezhi to come at this time. He walked forward a few steps and introduced her to everyone, "This is Yuan Yezhi, a business friend of mine."
Mother Yang stared at the graceful young woman in front of her, somewhat entranced. She quickly got up and walked over, "Miss, thank you so much!"
Yuan Yezhi smiled awkwardly, "Auntie, you're too kind."
The ward was crowded, making Yuan Yezhi uncomfortable. Being stared at by Yang Bo's many relatives made her feel strange, and she became quite uneasy.
Yuan Yezhi placed the gift box by the bed and asked, "Yang Bo said Uncle will have surgery soon. Have you found a doctor yet?"
"Xiaobo said he has found one. Thank you, Miss." Father Yang added.
Then Mother Yang asked, "Miss, what do you do for a living?"
Yuan Yezhi felt Mother Yang's gaze was a bit strange but still answered honestly, "I'm a police officer."
Mother Yang's eyes widened, and her expression changed.
Yuan Yezhi felt the atmosphere was oppressive and quickly said, "Auntie, I need to discuss something with Yang Bo."
"Miss, it's no problem. Xiaobo, why don't you accompany her outside?" Mother Yang said.
As Yuan Yezhi walked out of the ward, she heard the murmurs behind her.
"Being a police officer is too dangerous. A nurse is better; they can take care of you when you're sick. Police officers are usually strong-willed, and someone like Xiaobo might not be able to handle them."
"Being a police officer is still good; the job is stable, the salary is high, and it's convenient. Nurses often deal with patients, which can be dirty."
"The nurse earlier was young, but this one looks older than Xiaobo!"
...
Seeing Yang Bo come out, Yuan Yezhi almost choked him, grabbing his collar and asking, "What's going on in your family? Do you think I'm here for a blind date?"
Yang Bo pushed her arm away, "Why did you come?"
"Don't try to change the subject. What did you tell your family about the nurse and the police officer? Are you already at the age for a blind date?" Yuan Yezhi asked curiously.
"There's nothing to it. It's just my mother overthinking things. Don't misunderstand. You're too manly for me, I don't like you!" Yang Bo said directly.
"What did you say!" Yuan Yezhi was so angry that she almost lifted Yang Bo by the collar, choking him until he started coughing.
"Hmph, you're asking for it. I'm the third-place winner in a kickboxing competition!"
Yuan Yezhi looked at Yang Bo's pitiful state and felt quite proud.
Yang Bo glanced at her, "You seemed so ladylike the last few times I saw you. What's with this sudden change?"
"I wasn't familiar with you back then!" Yuan Yezhi revealed the secret.
Then she said, "By the way, I almost forgot the main reason. The interrogation has yielded results."
"As expected, they do have a template, and it's not from any museum in the country!"
Yang Bo immediately understood, "So they have their own bronze ding?"
"Yes, they must be a well-organized group!" Yuan Yezhi nodded, "I'm about to leave Jinling to work on a case. Wish me success!"
Saying this, Yuan Yezhi turned her face, looking like she wanted to hear a blessing.
Yang Bo smiled, "Alright, I wish you success!"
"Perfunctory!" Yuan Yezhi shook her head, "Too perfunctory. Is there anything else you want to say?"
Yang Bo thought for a moment, "I'm not your superior, so I don't have anything to say."
Seeing Yuan Yezhi's anger, Yang Bo quickly added, "The only thing I want to remind you is to be careful. You should know that since those people are doing a business with almost no cost, they might not hesitate to risk their lives. But you are still young."
"Alright, stop being so nagging!" Yuan Yezhi complained, interrupting him.
Yuan Yezhi didn't elaborate, and Yang Bo didn't press further, but he knew this matter wasn't simple!
Back in the ward, Mother Yang immediately approached, "Who was that girl just now?"
"A friend," Yang Bo said.
"Be honest. Why would a girl come to visit your father for no reason?" Mother Yang interrogated.
"She's really just a friend. Can't she come to visit?" Yang Bo felt helpless, never expecting his mother to overthink things about the girls around him!
