However, Ye Yanxi didn't think much about it. She picked up her bag and left work.
She still had to go to the hospital first. Ye Junze's physical condition hadn't fully recovered yet.
Squeezed in the jam - packed bus, the familiar and cheerful ringtone rang. Ye Yanxi had to hold onto the handrail with one hand laboriously and fumble for her phone with the other.
The screen showed it was Xiao Yu.
She pressed the answer button, and Xiao Yu's cold, mellow voice came from the other end: "Where are you? Why is it so noisy there?" Without even imagining, one could tell that Xiao Yu had a disgusted expression on his face.
"I'm on the bus."
"Going to the hospital again?"
"Yes."
Just as she finished speaking, Ye Yanxi keen - eyed saw a man with an exaggerated dressing and earphones in his ears. His eyes were darting around, but his hand accurately reached into an aunt's bag.
He quickly took out a cloth bag and a hospital medical record card.
Ye Yanxi couldn't stand such sneaky behavior. Looking at the aunt, she guessed that the money in the bag might be the life - saving money for one of her relatives.
Thinking of this, Ye Yanxi struggled to move a few steps forward and grabbed the man's wrist tightly with some force.
The man felt Ye Yanxi's obstruction. He glared at her fiercely with a warning look and silently mouthed a few words: Mind your own business.
However, Ye Yanxi was fearless. She blinked and said, "I'm going to mind this business for sure."
As soon as she finished speaking, the cloth bag in the man's hand fell back into the aunt's bag.
It was only then that the aunt noticed something was wrong. She quickly covered her bag with both hands and took a look at the small cloth bag. Finding that it wasn't lost, the people standing around her also realized what had happened.
"Thank you so much, girl. This is the life - saving money for my grandson! I'm so lucky it wasn't lost." The aunt was still in shock and quickly expressed her gratitude.
"It's okay."
The man's face turned green with anger. He tried to shake off Ye Yanxi's hand angrily. "I didn't steal the money. Let me go!"
"You damned thief! You even wanted to steal the life - saving money for my grandson. You'll get what's coming to you!" As she was speaking, the aunt excitedly slapped the man across the face.
The bus was stopped at a cross - road and hadn't reached the station yet. The man couldn't get off the bus. After being slapped, he was enraged and stared at Ye Yanxi.
"You'll regret meddling in this business."
At this time, the people on the bus probably checked their belongings. There was a commotion. Some people had lost their phones or wallets, and they were all found on that man in the end. Finally, it aroused the public's anger. Several middle - aged uncles rushed forward and pinned the man down.
Later, the bus drove to the police station. The uncles didn't stop until they had handed the man over to the police.
When the bus got back on the road, Ye Yanxi found that her phone was still in the call state. She hadn't hung up just now.
She tentatively said "Hello", and Xiao Yu's deep voice immediately came from the phone.
"Cough... I thought you had hung up long ago." Ye Yanxi was a bit speechless and forced a smile. "Something happened on the way just now."
"Was the thief caught?"
"Yeah, he was sent to the police station."
"Are you on your way to the hospital?"
"Yeah. Wait, where are you, President?"
"In the hospital."
"....." Ye Yanxi said, "I'll be there soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Yu hung up the phone.
She glared at the phone. Then another call came in. It was Chu Beize.
Ye Yanxi hung up without even thinking.
He called three times in a row, and each time Ye Yanxi hung up. Then he stopped calling and quickly sent a text message: I'll wait for you in Room 707 of Jinling Hotel, no matter how late it is.
Ye Yanxi simply ignored it and put away her phone.
The bus stopped at a station not far from the hospital. After getting off, Ye Yanxi went straight to Ye Junze's VIP ward.
As soon as she reached outside the ward, she heard voices coming from inside.
"Xiao Qi, quickly take this apple to the President to eat." Lu Manwen's tone was brisk.
"Got it, President. You don't like grapes. Then have this apple. It's very fresh."
