Chapter 26: Reunion of Old Friends

  A new month has begun, seeking flowers, seeking all kinds of support, re-ranking the book list! Brothers, please give your powerful support! The more support, the more powerful the updates will be!

  Giving away a sum of money means having to earn even more. The 200,000 in the pay card came easily, and giving it away is even easier.

  Two hundred thousand was earned with his life, but it couldn't withstand the hospital's black-hearted exploitation. Before long, Ye Shaofeng's hard-earned two hundred thousand would also be devoured by this greedy snake of a hospital, leaving nothing behind.

  But Ye Shaofeng never regretted it, and he would stick to his principles to help Yao Xueqi as much as possible.

  After all, she was born in a single-parent family since childhood, and her situation is basically the same as that of Ye Shaofeng. Both are pitiful children who have never received paternal love. Now, Ye Shaofeng's mother is either dead or pretended to be dead, while Yao Xueqi's mother has terminal lung cancer. It seems that their fates are similar again.

  Lung cancer at a late stage, once diagnosed, the time left to live can be counted on one's fingers. Yao Xueqi's mother relied on instruments and medication to hold on for more than half a year, which was already quite remarkable. Giving money for treatment is now the only thing Ye Shaofeng can do to help.

  Although a large sum of money was given, his mother may not necessarily survive, but since he could help, he must give one hundred percent, and if he didn't, that wouldn't be Ye Shaofeng's principle. This is Ye Shaofeng's way of doing things, and this is also Ye Shaofeng's charm.

  At noon, a person ate a bowl of pork rib noodles outside. There were not many ribs in the bowl, mostly noodles. He also drank two liang of Erguotou, a strong liquor that got him drunk quickly.

  Two hundred thousand yuan was spent, although Ye Shaofeng didn't feel a bit heartbroken, but the problem of lacking money came crashing down on him once again.

  Eating at this small restaurant, having a big bowl of pork rib noodles for five yuan, drinking two liang of low-end liquor for five yuan. Smoking Red Plum cigarettes that cost three yuan and fifty cents per pack.

  It seems that Ye Shaofeng, who was about to enter a comfortable life, has been kicked back to a warm and satiated treatment.

  Ate dinner, paid the bill, took two paper towels at the counter, burped and walked out of the small restaurant. Originally wanted to take a taxi home, but thinking that it's still quite far from home, with only a few hundred yuan left on me, I'd better take the bus.

  Got off the bus and walked into Ping'an Avenue. Arrived at the door of his own home. Saw a girl standing in front of his own door.

  The girl was wearing a thick, cute plush coat, with a fluffy cotton hat on her head and high-top UGG snow boots on her feet, looking quite adorable.

  She looked cute, but her movements were a bit strange. The girl was looking into the door crack as if she wanted to see it through.

  It can't be a female thief, how has the world become like this? In broad daylight, with a clear conscience, this woman actually wants to sneak into the house and steal. Leaf Shao Feng doesn't care about others being stolen from, but when it happens in his own home, he must catch her in the act.

  Ye Shaofeng took a swift step forward, grasping the girl's shoulder with one hand. The girl let out a loud shriek and jumped in fright, which also startled Ye Shaofeng.

  "Shut up, what are you doing!" Ye Shaofeng tightened his grip on the girl's shoulder, but seeing that she didn't struggle at all, he also didn't use excessive force.

  To him, it was just a light pinch on the girl's frail shoulder, but to her, it felt like an excruciating pain that tore through her heart, as if a steel clipper was about to snap her scapula in two.

  Ye Shaofeng pinched the girl's shoulder and slowly turned her around. The girl turned around with a terrified face.

  When Ye Shaofeng saw the girl's face, he was stunned for a few seconds, immediately let go of his hand and exclaimed: "Tang Jiaqian! How is it you?!"

  "Ah! Xiao Feng ge, you...you scared me to death......it hurts so much!" The girl said with a frown.

  The girl looks very pretty, with a neat and tidy hairdo, big eyes, long eyelashes, full cheekbones, and a face that shines like a lucky charm. When she smiles, the corners of her mouth curve upwards, making her look both cute and alluring, like a little fox spirit who has just transformed into human form and hasn't experienced the entanglements of a thousand years.

  "Why can't it be me! But you, when did you come back? How many years has it been, where have you been? After serving in the army, you didn't even return home, and now eight years have passed! Do you still have a place for your neighbor's little sister in your heart?" Tang Jiaqian said with a pout.

  "How could I ever forget you? We grew up together in split pants, and even if I forgot, you wouldn't be forgotten! What are you sneaking around my house for?" Ye Shaofeng said with a smile.

  "Who sneaked back? I was on my way home from work and saw your house lights were on, so I thought maybe you had returned. I wanted to knock on the door at that time, but I didn't want to disturb your rest, so I decided to come see you today."

  "As a result, you just hesitated at my door and then pounced on me, pinching my shoulder. You've been out in the world for a few years now, and your strength has increased quite a bit, hasn't it? You almost pinched Miss's shoulder off!" Tang Jiaqian said indignantly.

  "Alright, alright, it's all my fault, I apologize to you. Come on, let's go inside and sit down, it's been so many years since we last met, you're getting more and more beautiful, no longer the little fatty with a runny nose from back then." Ye Shaofeng said as he opened the door and invited Tang Jiaqian into the house.

  Tang Jiaqian also lives on this Ping'an Street. Her father is the minister of the municipal party committee's organization department, and her mother is the president of the Ping'an Street branch of the Construction Bank. They have power, influence, and a lot of money.

  This girl is five years younger than Ye Shaofeng and can also be considered as a childhood friend. After Ye Shaofeng's mother was rumored to have died, it was Tang Jiaqian's family who helped take care of him and sent him to join the army.

  It can be said that Tang Jiaqian's family has a great kindness to Ye Shaofeng, and Ye Shaofeng will surely repay it with a fountain of gratitude.

  Ye Shao Feng handed a cup of hot water to Tang Jia Qian and said, "There's no tea or drinks at home, nothing at all, only this hot water, Miss Tang, you'll have to make do with it."

  "Rarely come to this set, I ask you, what have you been doing for the past eight years?" Tang Jiaqian's big eyes were bright and spirited, her hands holding a steaming cup of coffee, asked.

  "After serving as a conscript for two years, he went to the south and mixed around for six years, basically doing every kind of job, even opening his own small business, but it didn't work out. In the end, he simply came back." Ye Shaofeng would never tell anyone about his time in Dragon Squad as a special forces soldier; this was top-secret information.

  "Oh, back to prepare for what?"

  "Now I'm working as a security guard at the Zonghai Group, and my monthly salary is not high, barely enough to make ends meet. Let's just stabilize for now, and if I can find a better job in the future, then I'll look for one." Ye Shaofeng said calmly.

  "Oh, my parents often ask about you too. Seeing that you're doing well, I'll go back and tell them, they can also rest assured now." Tang Jiaqian said with a smile.

  "Is uncle and aunt doing well? I'll buy some decent things in two days and then go visit them with due respect."

  "Come on, my parents don't need that little thing from you. You'd better spend your time accompanying my father to play chess and chatting with my mother..."

  "Ah…… I remember when I was bullied in school, you always stood up for me. Childhood was so wonderful, but it's gone forever." Tang Jiaqian suddenly recalled the past and said with a hint of sadness.

  "It's pretty good now, I remember you used to be quite chubby, how did you become so slender and sexy? Is it because of the nourishment of love?" Ye Shaofeng asked curiously.

  "What love is this? There are many men chasing me, but I don't think any of them are worthy. In today's world, there are far more men with a roving eye than women who are materialistic..."
