"Alright, I don't blame you anymore, and don't blame yourself either. I know it was just because you were angry at Du Yan in the moment," Ye Xiao said, as if he was about to forgive Song Jiaqian.

And indeed, it really did seem as if Song Jiaqian had committed a serious mistake.

At this time, Song Jiaqian was completely stunned!

"Nurse! Nurse!"

Just then, several urgent calls snapped Song Jiaqian back to reality.

Turned out a young man holding his arm, along with his parents, had arrived at the hospital and was now looking for a nurse.

Although Song Jiaqian's face was still somewhat red, she quickly stood up and immediately went over to the patient.

Ye Xiao stood by the window of the nurse's station, watching Song Jiaqian glance back at him from time to time, and couldn't help but crack a slight smile. Once Song Jiaqian and the patient entered the ward, Ye Xiao gently placed the invitation in his hand on the table. By now, it was nearly ten o'clock, so the hospital had begun to get busy. In fact, the hospital was always a busy place, but it became busiest around ten in the morning.

Ye Xiao had originally wanted to chat with Song Jiaqian for a while longer, but seeing that she was quite busy with work, he decided not to stay any longer and silently left.

At this moment, at the entrance of the city hospital, a police car sped up to the entrance, causing the already sick and weak patients to hurriedly step aside in fear.

Normally, such reckless driving would be unacceptable for a police car, but this time, it was indeed brazenly charging forward.

Perhaps the police had already notified the hospital because as soon as the police car stopped at the entrance of the hospital building, several doctors immediately rushed over, and a policewoman got out of the car first. This policewoman had an icy demeanor and a stunningly beautiful face—if one must describe her beauty, it would definitely be a cold allure.

She was a breathtakingly gorgeous policewoman, yet also so cold she could make you shiver.

"Hurry up!" the policewoman's voice was unmistakably commanding.

The police officers in the car quickly carried a policeman, whose abdomen was bleeding, from the police car and placed him on the stretcher prepared by the hospital, and quickly ran into the hospital building.

This was a seriously injured policeman!

The policewoman followed quickly toward the hospital building, but just as she got to the entrance, she saw a carefree young man walking out of the building. When the young man saw the policewoman, his eyes stayed fixed on her.

"Why are you here?" the policewoman walked up to the young man and, instead of joining the other police officers inside the hospital building, looked at the young man in front of her and spoke.

Upon hearing the policewoman's words, the young man chuckled and said, "Why can't I be here? After all, I've been missing your sister!"

'I've been missing your sister!'

These five words were truly heartfelt from Ye Xiao; he had come to the hospital really because he was missing Song Jiaqian. After all, who would visit a hospital for no reason? But hearing these words in Song Jiamin's ears made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"What did you say?" Song Jiamin said, somewhat displeased.

Ye Xiao simply shrugged indifferently and said with a smile, "I'm just telling the truth. I haven't seen Qianqian for a few days, so I've been missing her. After talking to Qianqian for a bit, I felt pretty good. Oh right, I went to the Guard Bureau looking for you earlier, but they said you had just stepped out."

"You were looking for me?" Song Jiamin, hearing that Ye Xiao had come looking for Song Jiaqian and that his reason was missing Song Jiaqian, felt a sourness in her heart, even though the Song sisters were very close. But as Song Jiamin was unsure how to express herself, Ye Xiao then mentioned he had been looking for her too.

Ye Xiao said, "Yes, I missed you too."

"You really are shameless!" Song Jiamin said fiercely.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "I've never been an object; I'm a perfectly upright person, and moreover, a person who is adored by everyone and makes flowers bloom at his presence."

"You… Oh right, even if I hadn't seen you today, I would have had to look for you." Just then, Song Jiamin remembered the earlier scene, so she immediately said to Ye Xiao.

Hearing Song Jiamin's words, Ye Xiao asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Song Jiamin glanced around; there were many people coming and going, and her striking appearance, coupled with her police uniform, made her all the more noticeable. Without hesitation, she grabbed Ye Xiao and headed straight for a secluded spot beside the hospital building.

"Look, Minmin, there's no need to be so hasty," Ye Xiao said seriously—and quite decisively, "I understand what's on your mind, but right here in broad daylight, it's just not right, it really isn't."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Song Jiamin felt a surge of excitement. What sort of person was this?

"Shut up! Can't you think of something useful for once?" Song Jiamin, listening to Ye Xiao, concluded he was thinking of those completely impure things again, her face flushing red with anger!

In front of others, Song Jiamin was definitely an imposing, cool policewoman, but around Ye Xiao, she often lost her composure and somehow always felt out of rhythm.

When Ye Xiao heard Song Jiamin's words and saw her expression, he feigned innocence and said, "Minmin, you're not thinking dirty thoughts, are you? What I meant was that under the broad daylight, dragging me over here could make people think you're abusing an ordinary citizen. How can you say I haven't thought of anything useful?"

Song Jiamin's face dawned with understanding upon Ye Xiao's words, indeed misinterpreting Ye Xiao's initial comment as being about that matter, making her worry that her own thoughts might have gone astray. Why did she always think in that direction when it came to Ye Xiao?

Seeing Song Jiamin's blushing face, Ye Xiao immediately acted puzzled and said, "Minmin, could it be that you thought about that kind of thing? No way, I've always thought you're pure as ice and jade. How could you think of such filthy things?"

Song Jiamin, facing Ye Xiao's surprised look, quickly said, "No... no, you're overthinking it. You really are."

Ye Xiao immediately pressed, "Oh? Is that so? Then tell me what exactly were you thinking about?"

"I... it's the same as what you were just talking about," Song Jiamin blurted out quickly.

Upon saying this, Song Jiamin's panic completely betrayed her.

Ye Xiao, watching Song Jiamin's flushed face and flustered demeanor, couldn't help but chuckle with self-satisfaction.

It was at this point that Song Jiamin realized Ye Xiao was laughing, his smile exuding triumph as if he had just won a victory.

Song Jiamin was intelligent. Although her current position was partially due to Yang Ming's intentional promotion, she couldn't deny that she was indeed smart and competent.

Therefore, Ye Xiao's smug laughter told Song Jiamin everything: he had deliberately set a trap, and all of this was just him being mischievous.

"Ye Xiao!" Song Jiamin glared furiously.

Ye Xiao chuckled, pointing to the epaulettes on her shoulder and said, "Hey, Minmin, remember you're a police officer. Don't forget you're part of law enforcement, and I'm a law-abiding good citizen."

Song Jiamin wanted to blow up, but Ye Xiao's words were not wrong.

Biting back her anger, Song Jiamin glared at Ye Xiao and said, "Fine, I'll be the bigger person and won't quarrel with you. However, there's something I must discuss with you."

Ye Xiao knew Song Jiamin was filled with rage, so he toned down his demeanor, grinned, and, placing two fingers to his ears, said to Song Jiamin, "Minmin, go ahead; I'm all ears."

Just when Ye Xiao had nearly driven her to the brink of snapping, he now acted like an innocent little bunny, leaving Song Jiamin not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Although she wanted to laugh at Ye Xiao playing the bunny, she held back and said, "Ye Xiao, didn't you promise my dad that within a month, you'd make Minghai City perfectly safe? Do you know who just stabbed our officers? Wretched criminals."

Ye Xiao remained unmoved by Song Jiamin's anger, and instead casually laughed it off, "Weren't you unharmed? And as I recall, it was supposed to be three months, wasn't it? Ah, well, whether it's three months or one, it's not been a month yet, right? So even if it is a month, the deadline isn't up."

Immediately, Song Jiamin snapped, "What kind of reasoning is that? Does this mean criminals can run rampant before the month is up?"

"But you're the police, aren't you? Since when can't the official army defeat bandits?" Ye Xiao retorted with a smirk.

Hearing this, Song Jiamin heatedly said, "Humph, if you hadn't caused chaos in Minghai City, how could its public security have deteriorated to this point? Regardless, you must take responsibility."

Ye Xiao, listening to Song Jiamin's words, sensed that she was on the verge of a tantrum. He was sure it would be a losing battle to tangle with a woman about to lose her temper.

"Alright then, just tell me who did it. If they're within my power to punish, I won't show mercy. Hurting police officers is akin to challenging the state, which is intolerable!" Ye Xiao declared righteously.

Song Jiamin responded, "Glad you're aware. The culprits are likely from the Axe Company. I know they're not your men, but you promised to improve law enforcement. So as long as..."

Before Song Jiamin could finish, Ye Xiao quickly responded, "OK, I get it, I'll do everything possible to prevent this kind of event from happening again. That should satisfy you, right? You also know that the Axe Company's boss just died, and as for who killed him, I think most people could guess. I knew the Axe Company's boss, Nie Zhen, but now with him gone, I can only brazenly ask others to stop causing trouble in Minghai City, or else I'll be accused of vengeance under the guise of public interest."
