Li Xiyue didn't hide the house from Chu Xingbang, but she didn't mention the prescription.

Chu Xingbang was not surprised that Ye Tian had given him a house as a way of repaying a debt of gratitude. It was his future granddaughter-in-law's private matter, so he didn't say anything and let her make her own decision.

The next day, Li Xiyue asked Quan Yicheng to take her to the East District under the pretext of going to the house.

"Sister-in-law, your house is really nice; it can house a whole family." Quan Yicheng exclaimed in admiration after visiting the house.

Li Xiyue smiled, then asked him, "Yicheng, how much do you know about Ye Tian?"

“Not much. All I know is that he lives alone, and he’s quite old and still unmarried. He’s vowed to dedicate his life to the country and the people,” Quan Yitian said.

Li Xiyue was surprised, "One? What about his family?"

"I think that's all. I'm not sure. He got into the Institute of Pharmaceutical Research because he once saved the director of the institute, which is why he was admitted despite not meeting the usual requirements. When he first joined, he was just a junior researcher, but he was promoted to director in just a few years. I heard that he has a great talent for drug research."

Li Xiyue felt more and more that this person was not simple, so she asked, "Could you help me find out his background?"

"Does your sister-in-law think there's something wrong with him?"

"I can't quite put my finger on it, but I just feel like he's very secretive."

Quan Yicheng said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will investigate."

Li Xiyue wanted to stay at the house, so Quan Yicheng went to attend to other matters and said he would pick her up later.

Not long after he left, Ye Tian arrived, and Li Xiyue gave him the prescription for the quick-acting heart medicine.

After looking at them, Ye Tian sighed, "So these are such precious medicinal herbs, no wonder..." They're so expensive, enough to buy him a house.

Most of the ingredients used above are rare medicinal materials such as ginseng, which are not easy to gather in a short time, and it is equally difficult to produce them in large quantities.

Why do I feel like I've been scammed?

Li Xiyue laughed and said, "Of course, how can you have good medicine without good ingredients?"

Once the deal is done, she won't care whether he regrets it or not; she's not going to return the house.

"Don't worry, a gentleman keeps his word, I won't go back on my word." Ye Tian saw through her thoughts and said with a helpless smile.

It might be difficult for others to gather all these medicines, but it wasn't hard for him.

A gentleman?

Whether it is or not remains to be seen.

Ye Tian put the prescription away and said, "Are you free? Would you like to come somewhere with me?"

Li Xiyue raised an eyebrow, wondering what tricks they were up to now.

An hour later, the car stopped outside the welfare home.

Li Xiyue got out of the car. "Director Ye, what are you doing here?"

"You'll find out once you go in," Ye Tian said, locking his car and carrying several boxes of pastries as he led the way into the orphanage.

The old man guarding the gate greeted him warmly, "Director Ye is here? The children have missed you so much!"

It looks so familiar; you must come here often.

"Uncle Ye, you're here!" The children who were playing gathered around him when they saw him arrive.

Ye Tian handed the pastries in his hand to the children: "These are some delicious treats that your uncle brought for you. Share them with the children."

The children accepted the gifts, said thank you, and happily ran back into the house.

Ye Tian looked at Li Xiyue and said, "Comrade Xiyue, come with me."

Li Xiyue followed him to a room where many children were lying, the youngest being only a few months old and the oldest being a few years old.

The children all looked sick and were ill to varying degrees.

“These children all have illnesses and were abandoned by their families,” Ye Tian said.
