Having lacked parental love in her childhood, Jian Yixue cherishes this hard-won family affection all the more.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have risked her life to personally snatch the old man back from the clutches of death.
After receiving a response from Jian Yixue, Ye Mohan took her hand and left Purgatory.
——
Night falls on the third underground level of Purgatory.
After the woman left, Wu Xiao anxiously stayed in the room. The room had no windows, and she didn't know how much time had passed, but there was nothing she could do but wait patiently.
I don't know how much time passed, but then I heard a noise at the door.
Wu Xiao looked up and saw the iron gate being pushed open, and two masked people walked in.
This time, Wu Xiao did not feel the fear she usually felt when she saw the men in black.
She knew that these two people were probably the ones the woman had arranged to send her out.
Sure enough, two men in black walked in, stopped half a meter away from Wu Xiao, and handed him a strip of black cloth. "Take this and come with us."
There were no extravagant words, but to Wu Xiao's ears, it sounded like heavenly music.
Never before had she so desperately wanted to hear those words.
Without hesitation, Wu Xiao stood up and walked straight to the man in black, took the strip of cloth from his hand and put it on.
She didn't ask why she had to wear it, because she knew very well that the owner of this place didn't want her to know where she was.
She didn't want to know; having been in the workforce for several years, she knew these things very well.
The more you know, the more dangers you will face in the future.
Therefore, she had no objection to the woman's arrangements.
Soon, Wu Xiao felt someone adjust her strip of cloth. She knew that it was the men in black checking her to see if she was peeping, so she didn't say anything.
Before long, Wu Xiao felt himself being helped out of the iron gate by his hands.
Then, the elevator doors opened.
Wu Xiao breathed in the fresh air for the first time in a while and instantly felt refreshed and comfortable.
This air was not just oxygen for her to survive, but also the taste of freedom.
Not long after, a black minivan was parked on the side of a small street in the bustling city of Beijing.
After the van drove away again, a blindfolded woman was standing by the roadside.
The woman did not remove her blindfold immediately, but waited a while to make sure the vehicle had enough time to leave before slowly removing it.
The reason she didn't take it off immediately was that she didn't want to, and even more so, she didn't dare to.
She didn't know if anyone was watching her from the shadows, or if the woman had arranged for someone to monitor her. She was also afraid that if she accidentally saw something, she might end up back where she started after all that effort to get out.
That's right, she is Wu Xiao, who has just regained her freedom.
After removing her blindfold, Wu Xiao looked around and, confirming that this was not a place she was familiar with, couldn't help but frown.
The most important thing right now is to go back and get some rest before planning what to do next.
Wu Xiao looked at the hundred-yuan bill in her hand, which the man in black had given her when she got off the bus.
At this moment, she didn't know whether to thank the woman from before for thinking so thoroughly, or to blame her for inexplicably tying her up.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Xiao couldn't help but chuckle.
Right now, these things don't seem to be that important.
No matter what, it couldn't change her fate.
Her mistake was that she shouldn't have provoked Zhao Heng, and she shouldn't have gone to the Linlang Shopping Mall that day.
Otherwise, none of this would have happened.
Wu Xiao snapped out of her thoughts, walked to the roadside, hailed a taxi, and then left.
——
Ye's private hospital VIP ward.
When Jian Yixue and her companion arrived at the door of the old man's hospital room, they heard voices coming from inside.
It was the same aged voice. Jian Yixue pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of someone and glanced at Ye Mohan.
Seeing this, Ye Mohan nodded.
Upon hearing the hearty laughter coming from inside, Ye Mohan immediately guessed who was inside.
Seeing Jian Yixue looking at him, he knew that she must have guessed as well.
He nodded and told Jian Yixue that she had guessed correctly.
The person inside was none other than the old man's old friend from his previous business dealings—Old Master Huangfu.
Although he didn't know how Old Master Huangfu got the news, Ye Mohan wasn't very surprised.
Although the Huangfu family is not as powerful as the Ye family in the capital, they are still one of the top families in the capital.
It's not surprising that people know these things.
Ye Mohan turned his head to look at the door of the ward, reached out and knocked on the door, and soon the old man's voice came from inside.
"Come in."
Ye Mohan led Jian Yixue through the door and went inside.
The old man on the hospital bed had a happy expression on his face, whether it was because he had seen an old friend or something else, no one knew.
Seeing the two of them walk in hand in hand, she made no attempt to hide her joy, "You're here. You don't need to go back and forth, I'm fine now, I can go back in a while."
The old man looked at the two of them, unwilling to disturb their lives and even less willing to become a burden to them.
He learned from Yu Xuan during the day that the two of them had gone to work.
Having managed the Ye family for decades, he naturally knows how busy the Ye family is. Moreover, the Ye family has expanded many times over compared to before, so one can imagine how busy Ye Mohan is.
Even if Ye Mohan had the time, he hoped Ye Mohan could spend that time creating a great-grandchild for him. It was such a waste to spend that time on this old geezer.
