Lin Aifeng listened to her and was worried for her: "Take it slow, youâll definitely think of a solution."
As they were talking, the car quickly arrived at the Mechanical Factory. Just as they got off and stabilized, Ye Silai and Ye Siyan rushed over: "Sister, why are you only back now? Weâve been worried."
Xinyan looked at the two little ones running towards her and felt a warmth in her heart, something she never had in her past life: "Sorry, sister came back late and made you worried."
She planned to tell them that they couldnât leave the factory area alone, but then she noticed He Jinxuan standing not far away, and realized she had been a bit selfish today. She quickly took a few steps: "Director He, Iâm sorry, I came back late."
He Jinxuan only relaxed when he saw her safely getting off the car.
The news he received this afternoon had shocked him. It turned out that the few thieves he previously caught were indeed connected to a major case.
However, it wasnât as simple as the two police officers had said. Although the case was closed, there were still fugitives. They didnât tell him to keep him at ease during his recovery, and also not to cause panic.
But now, those fugitives were playing hide and seek with the police and had even used diversion tactics. Itâs very likely they are hiding in the area around Sanyuan City, maybe even near the Mechanical Factory.
Now that He Jinxuanâs body had mostly recovered, and with the definite news from the police, they directly approached He Jinxuan in the afternoon.
The seriousness of the matter didnât need much explanation from the police; He Jinxuan understood it himself. He wasnât afraid of much, only fearing those people might retaliate and harm Ye Silai and Ye Siyan.
But with Xinyan still not back from the city today, he was very worried, concerned those people might have scoped things out and assumed Xinyan was a family member.
If something were to happen to Xinyan because of this, he would never find peace in his life, which is why he went along with the two kids to the factory gate, planning to report it to the police if she wasnât on this bus.
When he saw the bus approaching, his heart was almost in his throat, not daring to blink.
It was only when he saw her figure that he took a deep breath and relaxed.
He put away the worry in his eyes, greeted Lin Aifeng, and took the cloth bag from Xinyanâs hand: "Letâs go."
Ye Silai and Ye Siyan were chirping away about todayâs happenings, mentioning their worry from her not coming back.
Xinyan smiled and patted their little heads. The time spent together had built bonds, almost like family.
Once in the alley, they parted ways after greeting Lin Aifeng.
Lin Aifeng turned back to look at their backs after walking a few steps, inexplicably feeling that they resembled a family.
But upon recalling Xinyanâs words on the bus, she shook her head and laughed, thinking: What silly thoughts am I having?
Because of the police officersâ words this afternoon, He Jinxuan directly returned to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said his recovery was surprisingly good, beyond their expectations, and that he only needed to be cautious henceforth.
What they didnât know was that the reason for his quick recovery was because many of the dishes Xinyan later cooked were from the space, and the food ingredients in the space had nourishing properties. Although not immediate, the effects were indeed excellent.
Upon entering the courtyard, Xinyan smiled and said, "Iâll start cooking right away, very soon."
Just as she finished speaking, Ye Siyan wobbled her hand and said, "Uncle brought food back from the canteen."
