It had already been handled according to Yize’s instructions. By the time Yize received the news, it had been an hour since the deputy minister had left.
After confirming that the person had believed what he wanted them to see, he let them go and stood by the window in the hospital corridor. Earlier, many people had left due to gunfire.
Now, all the police officers were outside and asking about the situation, while others were cleaning up the scene below.
Looking outside and touching the ring on his middle finger lightened his mood a bit.
In truth, the deputy minister’s earlier words had angered him, but the current situation did not allow him to easily take actions that could put them in danger.
As he pondered, someone approached from behind.
“Sorry to disturb you.”
The newcomer was very polite. “Although we know you are from above, we still want to understand the details.”
Indeed, someone had already informed them that these people were not ordinary, but he felt it was necessary to ask further.
Yize glanced over. The person was humble and nodded slightly while speaking. He didn’t make people have a bad impression.
“You can ask them for details. Recently, things have been chaotic in Jiang City. Everyone should be cautious.”
The newcomer quickly nodded, thinking to himself that Jiang City was always chaotic, especially with the hidden forces lurking in the shadows. On the surface, the police appeared to be maintaining social stability, but in unseen places, real turmoil brewed.
Knowing that Yize wouldn’t share more details, the newcomer exchanged a few pleasantries and left.
The ward was quiet and peaceful. He Jingsi lay with his eyes closed and the noise outside wasn’t very loud.
Yize wanted to transfer the person immediately, but considering the many unresolved issues, he felt uneasy handing him over to someone else.
If this man was intercepted on the way, they would likely be killed.
Just as he was about to enter the ward, An Ping returned.
He came leaning against the wall to catch his breath.
“You go handle your matters. I’ll keep an eye on Jingsi.”
Yize didn’t doubt him and nodded.
An Ping confirmed that the person had left before locking the ward door behind him.
“Jingsi, I’ve secured the tickets for tomorrow morning.”
An Ping said.
“But Yize is here, can you get away?”
He Jingsi opened his eyes and sat up. “Arrange for me to stay at your place tonight.”
“This…”
An Ping truly felt he couldn’t manage this. Given this man’s influence and the various forces watching him, he felt that they would be shot to pieces the moment they left the hospital.
“Get it sorted out before tonight.”
He Jingsi spoke with an air of authority, his words sounding like commands that made one feel compelled to obey.
“Got it, got it.”
An Ping replied and started to think of a reason to convince Yize to let him take the person away.
As it neared dusk, An Ping stepped outside. Yize was still in formal attire, and his short hair made him look exceptionally handsome.
His eyes, unlike He Jingsi’s usual indifference, felt distant, making others feel as if they were worlds apart every time they looked into them.
“Yize.”
An Ping called out as he approached.
When he got closer, he noticed that Yize was looking at his hand. The distinctly boned fingers sported a ring. The craftsmanship wasn’t exquisite, but it was clear that the owner cherished it extremely.
“Thinking of her again?”
