Chapter 20 Xiao Bing, You are Under Arres (1/2)

Xiao Bing went home, lay on bed, took out his phone and sent Yezi, ”Good night.”

Very soon, he received a message, ”Call me 'baby'.”

The young and ignorant face of Yezi came to Xiao Bing's mind, and he couldn't help smiling. He quickly typed on his phone and sent, ”Baby, good night.”

”Good night.”

Ye Bancheng was 55 years old this year, which should have been the wealthiest time of his life. However, he fell seriously ill. Even famous doctors in Europe couldn't cure his illness.

Someone advised him that the best doctor from Hua Xia, Zhang Yizhi, who lived in Jing Du City might be able to cure him. However, despite sending his men to invite Zhang Yizhi five times, none of them succeeded. After going into retirement, Zhang Yizhi had stopped treating patients. Therefore, Ye Bancheng had to give up.

But today, the Ye Family suddenly heard a piece of good news: Zhang Yizhi showed up in Jiang City. The moment he arrived, he dismissed the director of the #1 hospital from his post. Hurriedly, the Ye Family sent their men to inquire about this. They found out that Zhang Yizhi came because a man named Xiao Bing invited him.

Ye Bancheng had one son and two daughters. Ye Xinyi was the eldest daughter, Ye Tianming was the middle brother, and Ye Xiaoxi was the youngest daughter, namely Yezi. Because Yezi was the youngest, Ye Bancheng spoiled her the most, just like a little princess. However, Yezi didn't appreciate her father that much. Now, both Ye Xinyi and Ye Tianming stood beside his bed.

Ye Bancheng said in a weak voice, ”Zhang Yizhi is in Jiang City now. And this is my last chance. You need to get him to treat me, no matter the cost.”

Ye Tianming said, ”Zhang Yizhi is very stubborn. I don't think he will change his mind, no matter how much you beg him. But I have an idea, father.”

Ye Bancheng looked to his son and gasped, ”Speak.”

”Since he was invited here by the outsider Xiao Bing, they must be good friends. Why don't we solve the problem in another way? If we bribe Xiao Bing, it should be a lot easier than directly going to Zhang Yizhi for help.”

A light flashed in the cloudy eyes of Ye Bancheng. He said in a hurried voice, ”Do as you said. Find Xiao Bing. As long as he agrees to help, we can pay any price. Which one of you will go?”

Before Ye Tianming could open his mouth, Ye Xinyi said, ”I will go.”

Ye Tianming took a look at his sister, but didn't say anything.

Ye Bancheng looked to his daughter who was both glamorous and dazzling, even when wearing a simple white dress. He stared at her with his eyes half-closed for a while, before suddenly saying, ”Okay, if you go... It might be easier.”

Ye Xinyi's eyes glamed, and she said with a smile, ”Don't worry, father. No matter what, I will get him to help.”

”Okay.” Ye Bancheng closed his eyes slowly and said with a weary look, ”It's getting late. You should go back to your room to have some rest. I also need to sleep now.”

Ye Tianming and Ye Xinyi took a look at each other before leaving together.

After leaving the room, Ye Tianming suddenly mentioned, ”Sister, when I was investigating Xiao Bing, I heard that he had a conflict with the Xie Family. And you were there too...”

”I was.” Ye Xinyi laughed calmly.

”Then... Are you sure it's appropriate for you to go?”

”I won't know unless I try.” Ye Xinyi smiled with a look full of confidence and said, ”And besides, that's the Xie Family he messed with, not me. Am I right?”

After hearing this, Ye Tianming knew that his sister was going to make a deal with Xiao Bing. Ever since they were kids, he had known of his sister's excellence. It wasn't just in academics, she also had a keen awareness of social situations, a kind of merit which was rare in youths nowadays.

The next day, Xiao Bing got up at dawn.

Su Xiaoxiao was also an early riser, but was not as early as Xiao Bing. After Xiao Bing washed up quietly, he went to the kitchen and started to make breakfast.

When it was six o'clock, Su Xiaoxiao walked into the bathroom with a sleepy look. After she finished washing up, she entered the kitchen to make breakfast, but found that Xiao Bing had already made it.

Xiao Bing brought two bowls of steamed sponge cake to the table and put some steamed spring rolls onto the plate. When he saw Su Xiaooxiao walking into the kitchen, he showed the breakfast on the table to her and said with a smile, ”Good morning. Come sit down and let's have breakfast.”

When Su Xiaoxiao looked at the bowls of sponge cake, she felt sober immediately. She looked dazed for a bit, and tears started coming out.

Xiao Bing said with a smile, ”You told me that after your sister passed, nobody ever made you steamed sponge cake again. I've made it a few times before. You should try to see if it's as good as the ones your sister made.”

”Thanks.” Su Xiaoxiao sat down and took a spoonful of sponge cake. She pressed her lips together tightly, trying not to let her tears fall. At that moment, she thought of her sister and the time they spent together at home a few years ago.

Xiao Bing put a steamed spring roll in Su Xiaoxiao's bowl, and said with a smile, ”I used to have steamed sponge cake a lot when I was a kid. It was the Auntie in the orphanage who made it, and the ones she made were much better than mine.”

”Mmm.” Su Xiaoxiao finally took a bite. It tasted so good that she nodded contentedly. Her messy hair lay on the table and even blocked her face. However, she didn't pay any attention to it, instead eating the steamed spring roll and the steamed sponge cake in big mouthfuls.
