"Ah... you rascal, you're going back on your word!" Bai Lan exclaimed, just about to chase after.
"Haha, I didn't specify whether it'd be a kiss on the cheek or lips. Oh, and by the way, the food is about to burn!" Ye Qiu pointed towards the kitchen.
"Ah!"
Bai Lan had no choice but to scream and run towards the kitchen.
...
At the marble dining table, about seven or eight meters long, there were only Ye Qiu and Bai Lan sitting across from each other.
On the table were six dishes and a soup—green pepper shredded pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fish-flavored shredded pork...
All were Ye Qiu's favorite home-cooked meals.
"Here, eat more. Look, you've lost weight recently." Bai Lan kept putting food into Ye Qiu's bowl.
"Mm-hmm, with such delicious food you've made, I'm definitely going to finish everything today." Ye Qiu said with a smile.
Bai Lan herself didn't eat much; she was on a diet recently.
"How's Cat doing these days? The company has been quite busy recently, so I haven't had much time to visit him." Bai Lan said apologetically.
"No worries, he's much better now, and it's all thanks to you for finding him a good nurse." Ye Qiu said meaningfully, thinking of Yang Kexin.
"Oh!" Bai Lan didn't understand what Ye Qiu meant, just nodded, thought for a moment, and casually asked, "Any news about Huang Zhentian and the other Demon Squad members?"
Ye Qiu's brows suddenly furrowed, a look of distress flashed across his face: "No news yet, but I've sent someone to inquire, I believe there will be news soon."
Bai Lan noticed Ye Qiu's bad expression, knowing she had brought up something that troubled him, thought for a moment, and said:
"Why don't we bring their parents over to live here? It could make up for them a bit. This complex is our company's project, I still have about seven or eight houses under my name."
"That's a good idea, I'll handle it right away!" Ye Qiu, being efficient, decided to act immediately.
"Hey, finish your meal, there's no rush." Bai Lan quickly said.
Ye Qiu was in a hurry, saying as he rushed upstairs, "I'll go get my phone upstairs, make a call, and come right back."
After getting upstairs, Ye Qiu immediately called Fei Ming.
"Commander? Could you help me contact the families of the Demon Squad members?" Ye Qiu asked.
As the commander of the military district, Fei Ming naturally knew the family situation of each soldier.
"You're looking for them for something?" Fei Ming asked, puzzled.
"I want to set them up with a home in Jiang City. I just happen to have a few houses empty." Ye Qiu said directly.
"Wow, you're quite the rich guy." Fei Ming laughed, but was deeply impressed. No wonder the members of the Demon Squad were willing to risk their lives for Ye Qiu, his generosity transcending money was something most people couldn't match.
After all, the house prices in Jiang City were ridiculously high, with a single house costing at least one or two million.
"Commander, I don't want them to know the truth. I hope you can tell their families that Huang Zhentian and the others really earned some military merit, and that each of them received a house in Jiang City so that they could come to the city to live."
"And, they'll receive ten thousand yuan as a living allowance every month."
Ye Qiu spoke sincerely.
Fei Ming, on the other end of the phone, half-jokingly remarked, "It's a shame, you've got a knack for leading men, a natural star. If you were in ancient times, you'd definitely be a great general."
Granting houses as military merit rewards isn't unheard of; it's happening everywhere in real life. And a ten thousand yuan monthly allowance isn't too peculiar either, considering that Huang Zhentian and others are part of special forces, earning decent monthly salaries.
It's not that Ye Qiu wasn't willing to give them money; most of Huang Zhentian's parents were farmers. If he simply brought them to the city and gave them a hundred thousand yuan monthly allowance, it would likely frighten them.
For such a heartwarming gesture, Fei Ming would naturally help Ye Qiu sort everything out smoothly.
"At least I've done something to make it up to my brothers." Ye Qiu sat down, letting out a breath.
"Yeah, finish your meal, nothing will happen to Huang Zhentian and the others." Bai Lan comforted.
"If anything happens, I'll drag him to the eighteenth level of hell!" Ye Qiu's eyes flashed with murderous intent!
**
A few days later, Ye Qiu visited the hospital again.
When Ye Qiu arrived at the hospital, Yang Kexin was feeding Cat. Cat's injuries had almost fully healed, and his arm could exert force, but Yang Kexin wouldn't let Cat feed himself.
"Open wide!" As a professional nurse, Yang Kexin's actions were very gentle.
Cat, obediently eating, looked just like a little child.
Ye Qiu stood at the doorway, watching the two of them seriously, not interrupting, just watching them with interest.
"Ahem..." Once the feeding was nearly done, Ye Qiu lightly coughed to announce his presence.
Yang Kexin stood up as if the chair was on fire, cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
Cat also looked like he'd done something guilty, his face turning a deep crimson, looking somewhat ridiculous.
"Bro, when did you arrive?" Cat asked, embarrassed.
"I've been here for a while. I didn't want to disturb your meal." Ye Qiu replied mischievously.
"Uh..." Cat glanced at Yang Kexin sheepishly!
Yang Kexin gave Cat a sidelong glance and said, "I'll head out first, you guys chat."
Once Yang Kexin left, Ye Qiu said, "Cat, you've put on some weight recently. Looks like you're getting used to the hospital life."
"No way, I've been wanting to get discharged..." Cat blurted out.
"Then why aren't you leaving?" Ye Qiu asked with a sly smile.
"Uh..." Cat was momentarily speechless. He was an honest guy, quite inexperienced in this regard.
"Haha, look at you. In matters like this, a man should be more proactive, otherwise you'll miss out." Ye Qiu said.
Cat was still somewhat embarrassed, "Bro, you noticed it?"
"Even a blind man could see it!" Ye Qiu said.
Cat's face, as dark as it was, turned completely red.
Ye Qiu suddenly turned serious and said, "By the way, I'm planning to bring the parents and relatives of Zhentian and his crew to the city. Anyway, Bai Lan still has a few houses, wouldn't you like to bring your parents over too?"
"Hmm, Zhentian and the others would definitely be thrilled to hear about this." Cat laughed, then after thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "As for my parents, there's no need. I've rarely gone home over the years. I'll pick them up myself once I'm better!"
"Alright, I'll have Bai Lan hold onto the house for you, and when you're ready, we'll all be neighbors with Zhentian and the gang."
"That'd be great!"
This time, Cat didn't refuse. He knew Ye Qiu was wealthy, and between brothers with life-and-death camaraderie, money wasn't an issue. If Ye Qiu asked him to draw out all his savings, Cat would unquestionably do it without keeping a single cent.
Fei Ming's efficiency was high. On the third day, Ye Qiu received a call, saying that the relatives of Huang Zhentian, Miao Mountain, and others had all arrived, and they were flown in.
Ye Qiu stood at the airport holding a sign, ready to pick them up.
