Dealing with Feng Jiao?

Ye Xiao listened to Gao Bo's words, secretly chuckling to himself. If he told Gao Bo that he'd already informed Feng Jiao about how he was advising Gao Bo on pursuing her, he wondered if Gao Bo would still be so polite to him.

Ye Xiao smiled and said to Gao Bo, "Officer Gao, do you know why you can't win over Feng Jiao? It's not the methods; it's the heart."

"The heart?" Gao Bo said with some confusion, "Brother Ye, can you elaborate a bit more?"

Ye Xiao said, "Strictly speaking, it's about sincerity. Only when you're truly dedicated can you succeed, just like me. If I want to pursue a beautiful woman, I have to set aside all distractions and go after her wholeheartedly. You have to understand, pursuing a girlfriend is like making soup; have you ever had a delicious soup after boiling it for just a minute or two?"

Gao Bo pondered over Ye Xiao's words, quickly nodded, and said to Ye Xiao, "Brother Ye, I understand now. I've been too hasty. Honestly, it's quite embarrassing."

"It's getting late, I need to quickly head upstairs to see the patient. Let's chat another day," Ye Xiao said with a smile to Gao Bo.

Gao Bo hurriedly said, "Thanks a lot for today. I'll definitely treat you to a meal another day."

"No need to be so polite, Officer Gao. It's what they call police-civilian cooperation," Ye Xiao laughed heartily.

Gao Bo laughed and said, "Makes sense, haha, go on then."

Afterwards, Ye Xiao and Gao Bo parted ways. Gao Bo was still deep in thought, seemingly planning a long-term strategy for pursuing a girl.

"Have you been waiting long?" Ye Xiao approached Fang Jing with a smile.

Fang Jing glanced at Gao Bo, who hadn't followed over, shook her head and said, "No, what did Officer Gao want with you?"

Ye Xiao said, "Looking for tips on wooing girls."

"You? Giving tips on wooing girls?" Fang Jing looked Ye Xiao up and down.

Ye Xiao immediately said, "Of course, why? You don't believe in my skills?"

Fang Jing gave Ye Xiao a glance, then said, "The elevator's here."

Only then did Ye Xiao realize the elevator had indeed arrived.

Once inside, they quickly arrived at the floor where Yan Luo's mother was staying.

"You're recovering well, and also, stop going out so often. You know your mother needs you by her side," Doctor Han Ruoxi said sternly to Yan Luo, who was standing at the door of the ward wearing a white coat.

Yan Luo blushed slightly at Han Ruoxi's words, hastily replied, "Thank you, Doctor Han, I'll try to be here more often; it's just that work has been quite busy."

"What's more important, work or your mother?" Han Ruoxi snorted and said.

"Of course, my mother is more important," came Ye Xiao's voice from the hallway.

Both Han Ruoxi and Yan Luo turned to look.

"Brother Xiao!" Yan Luo immediately rushed over to Ye Xiao with quick steps.

Ye Xiao smiled at Yan Luo and said, "Listen to what Doctor Han said, alright?"

"Yes, I got it," Yan Luo nodded right away and said.

Han Ruoxi looked at the approaching Ye Xiao, unsure how to react. Since they last parted ways at Liangju Bay, it seemed they hadn't met. Curiously, she should dislike this person, yet his image occasionally appeared in her mind, which Han Ruoxi attributed to disliking him too much.

"Ruoxi, long time no see. Did you miss me?" Ye Xiao asked earnestly as he walked up to Han Ruoxi.

Looking at Ye Xiao's expression and listening to his words, Han Ruoxi felt an urge to hit him. How could he tease someone so seriously?

At this moment, with many onlookers around, Han Ruoxi restrained her emotions, forced a smile, then glanced at Fang Jing and said with a smile, "Got yourself a new girlfriend again?"

Han Ruoxi's words immediately drew the attention of many people nearby.

Clearly, this was Han Ruoxi's intention—to make Ye Xiao feel embarrassed, so he wouldn't engage her anymore, and ideally, make this girl dislike Ye Xiao, hoping everyone would dislike Ye Xiao.

However, unexpectedly, Ye Xiao turned to Fang Jing and said, "Assistant Fang, tell her your identity."

After Ye Xiao spoke, he looked proudly at Han Ruoxi, clearly wanting to show off that he had a personal assistant, and a beautiful one at that.

But unexpectedly, Fang Jing, with bad intent, sighed and said to Han Ruoxi, "Doctor Han, right? Hello, I was forced by Ye Xiao to be his assistant. I swear, we have no relations, just like you don't want any with him."

After hearing Fang Jing's words, Ye Xiao immediately turned to look at Fang Jing, feeling that her lines were out of place.

"I sympathize with you and condemn him. I've got things to do, you guys carry on!" Han Ruoxi said as she left.

Ye Xiao immediately turned to Fang Jing and said, "Sister, are you messing with me or what?"

"No, I was just stating the facts. Or do you want me to lie?" Han Ruoxi said, feigning innocence.

To be honest, Ye Xiao intended to chat a bit more with Han Ruoxi. After all, with such a beautiful woman, who wouldn't want to talk more?

At this moment, Fang Jing said to Ye Xiao, "Ye Xiao, shouldn't you introduce us?"

Ye Xiao looked at Fang Jing, then said to Yan Luo, "Yan Luo, listen closely, this is one of your many sisters-in-law, quickly call her sister-in-law."

Yan Luo was stunned, and Fang Jing was also taken aback.

What does Ye Xiao mean by this?

Yan Luo glanced at Ye Xiao, finally his gaze fell on Fang Jing, and he seriously said to Fang Jing, "Hello, sister-in-law!"

Fang Jing immediately blushed and said angrily, "Who is your sister-in-law, Ye Xiao, explain this to me clearly."

"Shh!" Ye Xiao made a quiet gesture and said to Fang Jing, "Yan Luo's mother had brain surgery a few days ago, so you have to keep it down. Also, you're now my assistant, so sometimes pretending to be other identities is understandable."

"You..." Fang Jing glared at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao then turned to Yan Luo and said, "Yan Luo, let's go see your mom."

Yan Luo looked at Fang Jing's slightly unhappy expression, then looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Yes!"

Then, Ye Xiao and Fang Jing entered the hospital room together.

Fang Jing is a very considerate girl; Ye Xiao had completely realized this the moment she entered the hospital room.

"Mom, Brother Xiao is here." As soon as he walked into the hospital room, Yan Luo said to Mrs. Yan.

Ye Xiao immediately smiled at Mrs. Yan and said, "Auntie, how are you feeling now?"

Mrs. Yan's condition was much better than a few days ago, but she still needed to avoid too much movement. She looked at Ye Xiao with a kind smile and said softly, "Ye Xiao is here, sit down quickly. Luo Luo, pour some tea for Ye Xiao."

"Okay, Mom!" Yan Luo replied.

At this moment, Fang Jing smiled and said to Yan Luo's mother, "Hello, Auntie."

Upon hearing Fang Jing's words, Mrs. Yan immediately looked at Fang Jing, staring at her with a puzzled expression.

Ye Xiao immediately said, "Auntie, this is my girlfriend."

"Ah?" Mrs. Yan said in surprise upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, "Isn't Doctor Han your girlfriend? How come you have another girlfriend?"

Mrs. Yan's words immediately stunned everyone present. Ye Xiao only then recalled that during the chat with Yan Luo in the hospital room a few days ago, he had casually said a few things that Mrs. Yan had overheard.

Ye Xiao was suddenly a bit embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.

At this moment, Fang Jing glanced at Ye Xiao and then walked directly to Mrs. Yan's bedside, gently holding Mrs. Yan's slightly skinny hand and said, "Auntie, Ye Xiao is not an ordinary person, so while others have one girlfriend, he has many."

Mrs. Yan listened to Fang Jing's words and smiled, "Young lady, you're right. Auntie has some heartfelt words for you, Ye Xiao is a good person, truly a good person. He may say unbalanced things at times, but you must trust that he is definitely someone you can entrust your future with. Remember Auntie's words, young lady."

Listening to Mrs. Yan's words, Fang Jing felt a great emotional stir, and many images of Ye Xiao flashed through her mind instantly.

"Mom, Brother Xiao isn't imbalanced, look at what you're saying." Yan Luo hurriedly told his mother.

Mrs. Yan said, "Everyone has flaws, Ye Xiao has them too. But sometimes, Ye Xiao's flaws are exactly his strengths. Young lady, do you agree?"

"Yes, Auntie's words touched my heart." Fang Jing agreed seriously.

"Cough cough, you are also a good young lady; I can see from your eyes that you have feelings for him." Mrs. Yan said.

Fang Jing blushed immediately upon hearing Mrs. Yan's words.

Yan Luo seemed afraid that everyone would feel awkward, so he quickly told his mother, "Mom, you've talked too much today, take a rest."

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Yan said with a smile.

Whether it was Mrs. Yan's words or some other reasons, when Fang Jing stood up, she felt that Ye Xiao now seemed somewhat different from before. Although he was still the same type of carefree person, Fang Jing suddenly felt that this was the real Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao noticed Fang Jing's unusual demeanor, smiled faintly, and didn't say anything else.

After spending less than half an hour in Mrs. Yan's hospital room, Ye Xiao, Fang Jing, and Yan Luo left the room.

"Brother Xiao, there are a few things I need to discuss with you." Yan Luo said to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao looked at Yan Luo and asked, "What is it?"

"About Hong Company and Tulong Company." Yan Luo said.

"What? Are these two companies fighting?" Ye Xiao asked.

Yan Luo said, "Not exactly, but Wu Shengchang and Master Ma are about to start a conflict, and Tulong Company is suddenly consuming small companies in Jinling District. It's about these two matters."
