Chapter 151: Let Me Be of Service to You!

Back home, Qin Lan couldn't wait to change into a new dress.

She stood in front of the mirror, looking herself up and down, then turned her head to ask Tang Ye, "Du Xi helped me pick this out; it's the most popular style this year. But is the color a bit too bright?"

Tang Ye joked with a face full of smiles, "This color suits you perfectly. You already look young, and if you go out wearing this dress, people might even mistake you for my sister!"

Qin Lan was tickled by these words and couldn't stop smiling. After a moment, she pointed to the thermal container on the table, "I've got a job for you: take this late-night snack to your dad."

Tang Ye curled his lip, "The operating room has a cafeteria that's open twenty-four hours; is he really going to starve?"

Qin Lan rolled her eyes at Tang Ye, "Can what the cafeteria makes compare to home cooking?"

Tang Ye still obediently followed his mother's arrangements. He picked up the thermal container and strolled slowly toward the hospital.

He mused to himself: Once I move out, let's see how you order me around then.

Upon arriving at the Vice President's office at the hospital, Tang Ye learned that his father was currently in surgery.

He gently placed the thermal container on the desk, took a piece of paper, wrote a few sentences on it, and then left.

As he passed the emergency building, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Town Mayor Tang! Tang Ye!"

Tang Ye turned around and saw a woman wearing a mask standing there quietly.

Tang Ye looked closely, finally recognized her, and said in surprise, "Secretary An? Why are you at the hospital? Are you not feeling well?"

After An Xin got off work, she suddenly developed a fever. She felt dizzy and unsteady, but she still gritted her teeth and forced herself to head to the hospital.

After finally dragging herself to the hospital and preparing to register for the emergency room, she reached out to check and realized she had left her bag in the taxi.

In an instant, a heart full of grievances surged up like a burst levee.

Just then, she looked up and saw Tang Ye's figure appear before her eyes. Her emotions instantly spiraled out of control, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes uncontrollably.

Seeing An Xin suddenly start crying, Tang Ye immediately realized she must have run into big trouble.

He hurriedly stepped forward and comforted her softly, "Don't cry first. No matter what problem you've encountered, I will help you solve it."

An Xin sobbed, "I'm feeling very dizzy now, and I lost my bag; my phone and money were all in it. I just asked several people to borrow their phones to make a call, but they all refused."

As she spoke, the feeling of grievance welled up again.

From childhood to now, she had never felt as helpless as she did at this moment.

There are too many scammers these days!

An Xin could understand why she kept hitting walls.

Tang Ye hurriedly comforted her softly: "Don't worry, let's go see a doctor first."

An Xin, however, looked worried, her voice tearful as she said, "My ID card is lost too, what should I do?"

The corners of Tang Ye's mouth lifted slightly, and he joked with a smile, "Don't worry, just use my face!"

Afterward, Tang Ye took An Xin to the Emergency Department to register.

Just as Tang Ye had said, even without an ID card, the doctor still examined An Xin and prescribed medicine.

Tang Ye immediately dialed the police, and the Police arrived to register the information in detail.

"Once the lost items are found, we will notify you immediately."

An Xin hadn't expected Tang Ye to be so helpful, and she felt moved, "Thank you. If I hadn't met you today, I really wouldn't have known what to do!"

Knowing that An Xin had no money on her and was running a high fever, Tang Ye hailed a taxi and sent her back to her residence.

Sitting in the taxi, An Xin felt extremely hot and subconsciously leaned her head on Tang Ye's shoulder.

Tang Ye thought to himself, considering you're quite ill, I'll let you take advantage of me!

An Xin rented a small apartment; the place wasn't large, with a one-bedroom, one-living-room layout.

Tang Ye went straight to the kitchen and boiled some water.

While waiting for the water to boil, he picked up the medicine An Xin had just bought, carefully checked the instructions, and then found paper and a pen to write down the usage, dosage, and precautions for each medication neatly on the paper.

After the water boiled, Tang Ye poured it into a cup and let it cool to a suitable temperature before bringing the water and medicine to An Xin, patiently instructing her, "Fever reducer, take one pill before bed; cold medicine, three times a day, two tablets each time, take after meals. Make sure not to take the wrong ones or forget to take them."

An Xin looked grateful and nodded repeatedly.

Growing up, this was the first time a member of the opposite sex had cared for her so sincerely.

An Xin's family was well-off, but she had very few close friends, and especially working in Hanzhou, she was always on her own.

She hadn't expected to find such long-lost warmth from Tang Ye.

Because of her family, An Xin was always guarded when dealing with people.

She was certain that Tang Ye did not know her family background and was not approaching her with ulterior motives like some others.

"Alright, it's getting late, I have to go back." Tang Ye glanced at the wall clock and stood up to leave.

An Xin hurriedly followed behind and saw Tang Ye to the door, "Thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I think I would have had to sleep on the street."

Tang Ye turned around, waved at An Xin with a smile, and said, "Don't be so formal with me."

As he spoke, he tapped his forehead, reached into his pocket to take out his wallet, flipped through a few bills, kept only enough for his own ride back, and handed the rest of the money to An Xin.

"Use this for now. Remember to pay me back when you get your salary."

An Xin's eyes grew warm, and she nodded firmly, saying in a determined tone, "Don't worry, Town Mayor Tang, I will definitely pay you back tenfold then!"

Tang Ye laughed out loud and teased, "You're also a hard-working employee; if I asked you for nine times the interest, that would be too heartless!"

With that, he turned and walked toward the elevator.

An Xin watched his departing back, her heart full of warmth.

A night passed; An Xin's body temperature had dropped a bit, but her body still felt limp.

After a burst of urgent doorbell ringing, An Xin sat up from the bed in a daze, dragged her feet to the door, and looked out through the peephole; standing outside the door was actually Tang Ye.

She instantly became a bit more alert!

An Xin opened the door, and Tang Ye had a concerned smile on his face.

"How are you feeling?"

"Much better."

At this moment, Tang Ye smiled and took a bag out from behind him, handing it to An Xin, "You're in luck; the Police found your bag last night. Take a quick look and see if anything is missing."

An Xin hurriedly took the bag, pulled open the zipper, and began to count the contents carefully.

After checking, she said helplessly, "My ID card and bank cards are all here, but my phone and money are gone. I still have to thank you."

"How about I help you call Chairman Xu and ask for leave? Given your current physical condition, you really aren't fit to go to work."

An Xin hurriedly waved her hand to refuse, "Just lend me your phone, and I'll tell him myself."

Tang Ye handed the phone over directly.

Holding the phone, An Xin walked quickly into the kitchen and gently closed the door.

She reported her situation in detail to Xu Xiangchun.

Xu Xiangchun said gently, "Don't come to work for these few days; just rest and recover."

Hanging up the phone, she walked out of the kitchen and came to the living room, where An Xin returned the phone to Tang Ye, "I've already asked for leave."

Tang Ye felt relieved, "I still have to go to work, so I won't disturb your rest."

After Tang Ye left, An Xin sat alone on the sofa, her gaze vacant, thinking quietly for a long time.

Although she had received timely help from Tang Ye this time and owed him a big favor.

However, when it came time for the negotiations, she would still stick to her principles and give it her all. "Begging for votes!"
