Tang Ye was a little puzzled by Chen Lan’s actions. Wasn’t it enough to leave them alone if there was no illness? Why did she want to have a meal with them?

As for Tang Fu, when he heard that Chen Lan wanted to take them out for a meal, his eyes darted around, thinking that this young girl might be soft-hearted again. Perhaps she was going to give them some money.

Leaving the hospital, Chen Lan enthusiastically took Tang Fu and Xu Cui around, saying they were going to have a meal, but they never went to a restaurant.

“Niece-in-law, didn’t you say we were going to eat? Where are we going?” Tang Fu woke up early in the morning and brought his wife to look for Tang Ye without breakfast. He had been famished all morning, and now it was well past lunchtime, so he asked with a straight face.

“Don’t be anxious. It’s not easy for you to come here. Why not have a good meal? The most expensive restaurant is a little far from here, so we just need to walk a bit further.”

Although she said this, the path she was leading them on became increasingly remote, with fewer people around.

Tang Fu had his suspicions but still thought that it might be a high-class restaurant. After all, not many people could afford such places and wealthy people sometimes had their peculiar preferences such as quiet and secluded. So he continued to follow behind.

Chen Lan led the two of them to a remote and deserted alley when suddenly, a group of hooligans in unusual attire appeared, blocking their way.

Tang Ye immediately pulled Chen Lan behind him, his brows furrowed as he observed the strangers.

The hooligans paid no attention to Tang Ye and headed straight for Tang Fu. “Are you Ergou’s father?”

Tang Fu, who was easily intimidated, was trembling with fear. He was on the verge of collapsing to the ground as he stammered, “Y-yes, I am his father.”

“When will you pay me back the money your son owes?” The leader, holding a cigarette in his hand, looked at Tang Fu with a menacing demeanor.

“I-I don’t have the money,” Tang Fu replied nervously. Then he remembered something and pointed at Tang Ye, “This is my nephew. He’s in the military, and he said he would pay on my behalf.”

As soon as the words were spoken, the person fiercely struck Tang Fu on the head. “I told you to pay back the money. Stop involving others. Hurry up and raise the money. I’ll give you three more days. If you don’t have the money, I’ll chop off his hand as collateral. And remember, that is our young lady and young master. If you dare to bother them again, I’ll throw Ergou into the sea to feed the fish.”

Tang Fu looked at Chen Lan in shock, opened his mouth as if to speak, but in the end, he couldn’t say anything and slowly sat down on the ground.

She could have easily saved his son with just a few words, but instead, she wanted to push his son towards his demise.

The leader of the group, seeing Tang Fu collapse, didn’t pay him any more attention. He turned and walked towards Chen Lan, saying, “Young Lady, I’ve done what the Ninth Master instructed. The Ninth Master said to come back for dinner when you and Young Master have time.”

Chen Lan, peeking her head out from behind Tang Ye, smiled and replied, “Got it. Thank you for your hard work today.”

“Not a problem at all. It’s an honor for us to help Young Lady. If those two old farts bother you again, just give me a call. I’ll make sure to resolve it for you immediately.”

The hooligan wanted to hand Chen Lan a piece of paper with his phone number, but upon seeing Tang Ye, who appeared as cold as ice blocking her, he gulped and instead placed the paper on the ground with a forced smile. Worried that it might get blown away by the wind, he even found a rock to weigh it down.

After that, he signaled his group to leave. As they passed by Tang Fu, he didn’t forget to kick him.

Once everyone was gone, Chen Lan picked up the piece of paper from the ground and carefully folded it, tucking it into her pocket.

She didn’t want to get involved with these hooligans, but people like Tang Fu were not afraid of legitimate military personnel like Tang Ye because they knew the military had rules and couldn’t harm them. However, they were definitely afraid of these evil people. Therefore, to ensure a peaceful future, it was necessary to keep that phone number.

“Let’s go eat, Ahye!” Chen Lan linked her arm with Tang Ye’s as they walked out of the alley.

On the way, Tang Ye frowned and remained silent.

“Ahye, are you angry with me?” Tang Ye was a soldier. She was worried that he might be upset about her seeking the help of those hooligans.

Tang Ye shook his head. “I’m just angry with myself. You shouldn’t worry about these things.”

“What are you talking about? We’re husband and wife. We’re bound together for good or ill. We should have gone through thick and thin together.”
