Everyone immediately fell into silence, and Shen Qiuyu looked at Ye Xiao, who was silent with his head lowered, then turned her gaze to Ling Shuya, whose brow was slightly furrowed.

Clearly, at this moment, everyone knew what should be done next, but no one spoke up first. Since no one took the initiative, as Shen Qiuyu's seniors as well as everyone's older sister, it was up to her to speak.

"I do have a suggestion, I wonder if everyone is willing to listen," said Shen Qiuyu with a smile.

After Shen Qiuyu spoke, the first to react was Ling Shuya. She immediately looked up at Shen Qiuyu. Although she didn't say a word, her eyes were constantly on Shen Qiuyu.

"Sister Qiuyu, let's hear it. It must be in Han Xuewei's best interest. After all, Han Xuewei is just too pitiable," Shen Qiuyu said sincerely.

"First, Ye Xiao must take responsibility. After all, even though Han Xuewei might not be aware of these matters, as a man, if Ye Xiao doesn't take up the responsibility to care for Han Xuewei, I think he would always feel guilty inside himself. Secondly, if possible, it would be best for Han Xuewei to move into Shuya's villa, of course, this is just my suggestion," Shen Qiuyu finished, looking toward Ling Shuya.

Obviously, the final decision on Shen Qiuyu's suggestion lay with Ling Shuya.

Upon hearing Shen Qiuyu's words, Zhou Yuyan nodded slightly and said, "Ye Xiao is currently staying in Shuya's villa. If he wants to take good care of Xuewei, it seems that this is the only way, especially in the past three months. There must be someone to accompany Han Xuewei, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome. Shuya, what do you think?"

Ling Shuya glanced at Shen Qiuyu and then at Zhou Yuyan, sighed, and spoke, "Living in my place is not a problem, but even though I haven't had much contact with Han Xuewei, my intuition tells me that she would absolutely refuse to stay in my villa. Perhaps, her choice would be to stay at Lin Dieying's home."

Hearing Ling Shuya's words, Shen Qiuyu and Zhou Yuyan looked at each other, while Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Shuya is right, I think so too. Han Xuewei is currently overwhelmed with grief, but if she were to choose, the most likely choice would be Lin Dieying's home, besides..."

Ye Xiao's words were cut off as his mobile phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Song Jiamin.

Ye Xiao wondered, why was Song Jiamin calling at this time? Shouldn't she be with Yang Ming interrogating the criminal?

Despite his confusion, he still answered the call.

"Minmin, what's up?" Ye Xiao asked affectionately.

Hearing Ye Xiao's address to her, Song Jiamin hesitated for a moment and then said, "Han Jianjun's wife has arrived at the Guard Bureau creating a big scene, and she's demanding to see Han Xuewei."

"See Han Xuewei?" Ye Xiao knew that after Han Xuewei's mother had passed away, Han Jianjun had taken another wife, but he had no idea what the relationship between this stepmother and Han Xuewei was.

Moreover, Han Xuewei was resting right now, she should at least wait until her spirits were back to normal tomorrow.

Ye Xiao said, "First calm down Han Jianjun's wife. As for seeing Han Xuewei, let's wait until tomorrow. Let Han Xuewei rest for today."

"Alright, I understand," Song Jiamin said. "Also, you're not allowed to call me Minmin anymore."

"I think it's quite nice, well, I have to go if there's nothing else," Ye Xiao finished, not leaving Song Jiamin any chance to speak and hung up the phone directly.

Hearing the click of the phone hanging up, Song Jiamin was stunned for a moment, then felt a wave of displeasure. Ye Xiao had actually hung up on her.

"It was Song Jiamin, right?" Ling Shuya said. "What happened?"

Ye Xiao 'hmmed' and said, "That's right, Han Jianjun's wife wants to see Han Xuewei. I told her to wait until tomorrow."

"You aren't in charge of everything, are you? Even when a mother wants to see her daughter, you have to intervene?"

Ye Xiao said, "Stepmother."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Ling Shuya, who had been chattering, fell silent. As for the stepmother wishing to see Han Xuewei at this time, what kind of intentions she had, who could know?

Then, Shen Qiuyu spoke up again, broaching another topic of great concern.

"What about tonight? I don't think all four of us can stay here overnight," said Shen Qiuyu.

Hearing Shen Qiuyu's words, Ye Xiao agreed and thought for a moment before saying, "Well then, Miss Shen, Shuya, Yuyan, you three go back. I can stay here alone. Besides, there's an exam tomorrow."

Hearing Ye Xiao's arrangement, the three women didn't say anything. As for how they went back, Ye Xiao had called a taxi for them.

Ye Xiao himself, however, sat in the hospital room, looking intently at Han Xuewei lying on the bed.

Around ten o'clock, when Ye Xiao saw that Han Xuewei had been sleeping all along, he stepped out of the room. Ye Xiao was definitely not a qualified caregiver, so he decided to find somewhere to wander.

And thus, unknowingly, he arrived at the floor where Song Jiaqian was.

At that time, Song Jiaqian wasn't at the nurse's station. However, just when Ye Xiao was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone calling his name, and the voice definitely wasn't Song Jiaqian's.

Ye Xiao turned his head to look and there was Qin Yulu.

Qin Yulu's father had been beaten by Zhang Zihao and was still in the hospital. Originally, Qin Erzhu, her father, had planned to be discharged, but Ye Xiao told them that he had already paid for three days; if they didn't stay for the full period, the money would not be refunded. With thriftiness in mind, Qin Erzhu decided to continue his stay.

Just now, Qin Yulu had come out to draw water and noticed someone standing at the nurse's station. Upon closer inspection, it was Ye Xiao, so she immediately greeted him.

Ye Xiao immediately walked over to Qin Yulu.

Qin Yulu, looking puzzled at Ye Xiao, said, "Why are you here at this time? Is it... is it to see Sister Qian?"

Qin Yulu was obviously already quite familiar with Song Jiaqian, otherwise she would not have called Song Jiaqian Sister Qian.

Ye Xiao said, "Sort of. How is Uncle Qin's injury?"

Qin Yulu replied, "It's healed now. In fact, he could be discharged today."

"The medical bills have been paid, and it would be a waste not to make the most of them," Ye Xiao said with a chuckle. "What about you? Are you here for the night shift tonight?"

Qin Yulu said, "No, I have a test tomorrow, so my mother will be on the night shift. She has just gone home to fetch some things and should be back soon."

Only then did Ye Xiao remember that there were exams at the academy that everyone would have to take.

Ye Xiao, because of the incident with Han Xuewei, wasn't really in the mood for jokes. For a while, the two of them stood silently in the corridor.

Just then, Song Jiaqian emerged from a patient's room and saw Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu standing face to face in the corridor. What was strange was that the two weren't speaking.

Song Jiaqian was feeling very conflicted inside. She didn't need to hide her affection for Ye Xiao anymore. However, Song Jiaqian had also noticed something—that more and more people seemed to have an ambiguous relationship with Ye Xiao and that he seemed to be quite nice to all of them.

"Sister Qian." Qin Yulu, who didn't know what to say, suddenly saw Song Jiaqian standing at the door of a patient's room and immediately looked towards her.

Upon hearing Qin Yulu's words, Ye Xiao immediately turned to look, and sure enough, Song Jiaqian was standing at the door of a patient's room. Song Jiaqian, after being called out by Qin Yulu, promptly walked towards Ye Xiao and Qin Yulu.

"Why are you guys here?" Song Jiaqian then looked at Ye Xiao and purposely asked, "How is Han Xuewei doing? Still asleep?"

"I just saw her resting, so I came over to chat with you," Ye Xiao replied with a smile.

However, although Ye Xiao was telling the truth, Song Jiaqian might not necessarily believe him, since right now, he was standing there with Qin Yulu.

"I think you came to see Lu Lu, that's the real reason," Song Jiaqian said with a light smile.

Qin Yulu immediately felt somewhat embarrassed and said to Song Jiaqian, "Sister Qian, what Ye Xiao said is true. Oh right, who did you say Han Xuewei was just now?"

Song Jiaqian had guessed that Qin Yulu would ask this. From the way Qin Yulu looked at Ye Xiao, Song Jiaqian could tell that Qin Yulu had a special feeling towards him. However, it wouldn't be appropriate to say it outright. So, Song Jiaqian thought it was necessary to let Qin Yulu know about Ye Xiao's true colors, or else Qin Yulu might actually think Ye Xiao was a very good person.

Thus, she immediately said to Qin Yulu, "Han Xuewei is a friend of Ye Xiao's; she's at the hospital because she got emotionally worked up over something. Isn't this guy, full of sympathy for the fair sex, still at the hospital now? Oh right, Ye Xiao, who will be staying at the hospital tonight?"

"I'll be staying. I told Shuya and the others to go back. They have exams tomorrow and shouldn't have to change their normal lives because of one incident," Ye Xiao explained.

"You really know how to look after people. No wonder Lu Lu always seems so sweet when she talks about you," Song Jiaqian deliberately said.

Listening to Song Jiaqian's words, Ye Xiao felt a tinge of jealousy. He was puzzled—why was Song Jiaqian talking so differently today? The thoughts of women truly are inscrutable.

Ye Xiao prided himself on understanding women very well, but in truth, he didn't understand them at all. Many women would do crazy things for the man they loved.

At least Song Jiaqian was still relatively rational, yet watching the man she liked flirt with one woman after another,

Song Jiaqian was naturally not happy. But she couldn't just say it outright, after all, Ye Xiao hadn't promised to marry her for life.

Hearing what Song Jiaqian said, Qin Yulu's cheeks turned slightly red. As a student, Qin Yulu didn't quite understand what Song Jiaqian meant. She just felt a bit embarrassed and hurriedly said, "Sister Qian, it's not what you think."

Song Jiaqian laughed and said, "Sigh, maybe it's just that Ye Xiao is generally caring towards female compatriots. Look, isn't this woman today also not directly related to Ye Xiao? This guy is practically becoming a champion of women."

Song Jiaqian seemed to be joking, but her goal was reached—to let Qin Yulu know that Ye Xiao was not a one-woman man.
