"Yeah." Sun Xinxin casually replied. Of course, she had a bank card; in this day and age, there weren’t many adults without one.

"Then let’s go deposit the money!" Xia Tian wasn't worried about someone robbing them but thought it was inconvenient to carry such a large bag.

However, Sun Xinxin hadn't caught on yet: "You don’t have a bank card or ID, how are you going to make a deposit"

"Xinjie [nickname for Sun Xinxin], don’t you have a bank card" Xia Tian was a bit puzzled. "Can’t we just put it in your account"

Sun Xinxin froze, then exclaimed softly: "Xia Tian, are—are you saying that you want to deposit the money into my bank account"

"Of course!" Xia Tian looked at Sun Xinxin with some confusion. Usually, Xinjie seemed quite smart—why had she become so dense today Did her chest suddenly get bigger

Xia Tian couldn't help but stare at Sun Xinxin's prominent area for a moment and concluded that it was the same size as before, still 36C.

Sun Xinxin felt her heart rate increase considerably. It wasn’t because of Xia Tian’s gaze—it was unexpected that Xia Tian wanted to deposit such a large sum into her account!

"Xia Tian, are you really going to deposit the money in my bank account" Sun Xinxin couldn't help but ask again, feeling somewhat incredulous.

"Of course it's real." Xia Tian was rather confused. Was Xinjie’s mind off today

"Don’t you fear that I’ll run away with your money" Sun Xinxin blurted out without thinking.

"I'm not afraid!" Xia Tian chuckled, "No matter where you run to, I'll find you."

Sun Xinxin was stunned. She had expected Xia Tian to say something sweet like "Your money is my money," but instead, he gave her such a straightforward reply, which made her slightly annoyed that he didn't understand the mood and felt a bit disappointed. As a result, she wasn't as excited anymore.

"Then let's go deposit the money." After calming down, Sun Xinxin pulled Xia Tian into the bank.

The deposit process was quick, but Xia Tian only deposited 900,000 yuan in whole numbers. He wanted to keep the remaining several thousand for petty cash.

Xia Tian's casual demeanor throughout made Sun Xinxin realize that he hadn't taken this matter seriously at all, while she had overcomplicated things. After all, it was unusual for a man to suddenly offer to deposit a million yuan into her account without having ulterior motives, but Xia Tian was an exception; he truly didn't have any other intentions.

After finishing the deposit, they went to the mobile phone service hall to restore Sun Xinxin's original number. Finally, they returned to the flower shop, and by then it was already two thirty in the afternoon.

"Xinjie, you finally came." Fang Xiaoru had been dozing off with her head on the table. Seeing Sun Xinxin made her yawn involuntarily. "So boring! No business today, that fatso didn't come either. I'm suffocating!"

"What Do you miss him" Sun Xinxin teased her.

"I'd rather be a ghost than think of him!" Fang Xiaoru blushed. "Xinjie, you're so unfair! You and someone are getting cozy behind my back, yet you come to slander me!"

"Is that how you talk" Sun Xinxin's pretty face turned slightly red.

“Wow…” Fang Xiaoru suddenly let out an exaggerated scream, grabbing Sun Xinxin’s hand. "Xinjie, when did you buy the ring Wow, let me see! Is this a diamond It's so big, how much does it cost"

"It was quite cheap, 68,000 yuan," Xia Tian added.

"Six six six... Sixty-eight thousand" Fang Xiaoru stammers a bit, "Xinjie, did you win the lottery or something"

"Have I ever bought a lottery ticket before" Sun Xinxin glares at Fang Xiaoru and then looks at Xia Tian with a mix of shyness and delight, "It's a gift from Xia Tian."

"What" This time, Fang Xiaoru is even more shocked. How could this guy afford such an expensive ring

After a moment of stunned silence, Fang Xiaoru blurts out, "Xia Tian, did you rob a bank or something"

"Don't say nonsense, Xia Tian earned the money by treating patients for others," Sun Xinxin quickly explains.

"Black-hearted! Truly black-hearted, earning enough from treating one patient to buy a sixty-eight thousand ring. Everyone says doctors nowadays are heartless, but I think no one is as heartless as Xia Tian!" Fang Xiaoru examines the ring on Sun Xinxin's hand with an expression of complete adoration, "If someone buys me such a ring, I'll definitely marry him."

"Then I will tell Fatty in a few days to buy you a ring," Sun Xinxin smiles lightly.

"Ha, if Fatty could afford a sixty-eight thousand ring, his girlfriend wouldn't have been stolen from him." Fang Xiaoru looks at Sun Xinxin with evident envy, "Xinjie, I think in the future you don't need to run your flower shop anymore. Just let this black-hearted doctor support you."

"What nonsense are you talking" Sun Xinxin pulls her hand back and seems a bit unhappy, "I don’t want others to support me; I can earn my own money!"

"Xinjie, you won't even earn enough in a year from your flower shop for just one ring like that," Fang Xiaoru reminds her.

“Just wait and see. Once I save up some money and open more shops, the money will naturally pile up on its own, and I can go nationwide with chain stores!” Sun Xinxin is somewhat indignant.

"Uh, Xinjie, do you really want to expand your flower shop" Fang Xiaoru couldn't help but ask.

"Nonsense!" Sun Xinxin gave Fang Xiaoru a disdainful look.

"Actually, a few days ago, the胖子 told me that he could help the flower shop create a website. Then we can offer online flower ordering services and expand our delivery range. If we promote it well, there's no problem in increasing our business several times over," Fang Xiaoru said.

"The fatty really said that" Sun Xinxin felt a ray of hope, "Then let him make us a website!"

"Previously the fatty was bored and offered to help us with the website. Now he's busy being a big shot; how can he still have the mood to help us with our website" Fang Xiaoru seemed quite unhappy with the fatty.

"That does make sense." Sun Xinxin nodded, since the fatty wasn't an employee of their flower shop.

Hearing them talk like that, Xia Tian took out his phone and dialed Wang Jie's number directly: "Fatty, come to the flower shop!"

"Yes, Big Brother!" The response from the fatty was surprisingly enthusiastic, "I'll be there right away!"

The fatty did arrive very quickly. He seemed to have been on his way anyway; within two minutes, a van drove in.

The fatty got off the vehicle first, followed by two henchmen who turned out to be Ding Bao and Black Three. The fatty was dressed in an Armani casual outfit, wearing a gold watch, sporting sunglasses, and his hair was slick and shiny, giving him the appearance of a slightly nouveau riche.

"Fatty, you've done well!" Fang Xiaoru looked at Wang Jie, "All branded clothes, plus two little henchmen, really showing off your big shot style!"

"Cough cough, I'm just putting up a front," the fatty felt somewhat awkward and then quickly greeted Xia Tian and Sun Xinxin, "Big Brother, Big Sister!"

Ding Bao and Black Three also hurriedly greeted them: "Brother Tian, Sister Tian!"

Tian Brother, Tian Sister

Hearing "Tian Brother" sounds okay, but calling someone "Tian Sister" does seem rather peculiar.

"Fatty, Xīn姐 wants you to make a website for her. Please hurry up and finish it!" Xia Tian instructed.

"Yes, Big Bro! I will definitely complete it as soon as possible!" Fatty responded, then looked at Xia Tian with an ingratiating expression, "Big Bro, are you free tonight"

"Why" Xia Tian asked.

"Big Bro, here's the deal: The bald guy who wanted to buy our nightclub said he wants to negotiate with you tonight," Fatty explained.

"Oh. I'll see how things go and if I have time, I will come over." Xia Tian casually replied.

"Okay then, I’ll give Big Bro a call later in the evening." Wang Jie quickly said.

"Alright, first you should discuss with Xīn姐 about that website matter. I need to go deliver some flowers." After checking his watch, Xia Tian realized it was time to head over to Liuyunman's place again.

At this moment, Xia Tian’s phone rang.

"Xia Tian! Xia Tian! Where are you" A voice with evident panic could be heard from the other end of the line.

"Sis Beauty, what happened" Upon recognizing Ye Mengying's voice on the phone, Xia Tian felt somewhat puzzled. Why was she so panicked

"Summer, can you come to Sacred Heart Hospital right away Something happened to Grandpa!" Ye Mengying said urgently.

"What's wrong" Summer was a bit confused; shouldn't the old man have already woken up

"Grandpa has fallen into unconsciousness again. I can’t explain it clearly for now, but please come as soon as possible, okay" Ye Mengying sounded extremely anxious, her tone tinged with a hint of pleading.

"Alright, Miss Beauty, don't worry. I'll be there right away." Summer hung up the phone and turned to look at Heisan (Black Three), "Take me to Sacred Heart Hospital."

"Yes, Brother Tian!" Heisan responded.

Outside of Ye Tiansouth's special care ward at Sacred Heart Hospital, Ye Mengying was pacing back and forth, looking extremely anxious.

Last night, Ye Tiansouth had already woken up, and his spirit seemed even better than before he fell ill. Naturally, this made Ye Mengying very happy. She stayed by her grandfather's side for a long time, chatting until midnight before heading home to rest.

Since returning to Jianghai City, Ye Mengying had not slept well at night once; now that Grandpa finally woke up, she enjoyed a comfortable sleep and only got out of bed in the afternoon. After taking a shower and having some food, she planned to visit her grandfather first before going to find Summer to thank him personally.

However, upon arriving at the hospital, news struck like lightning, leaving Ye Mengying stunned; her grandfather's condition had worsened again, falling into unconsciousness once more. Moreover, it was said that this situation was even worse than last time!

Hearing about this, her second uncle Ye Zhiyi claimed to have reported the matter and sent people to arrest Summer as an illegal quack doctor. He also threatened that she would be held responsible, but at present, Ye Mengying had no mood for arguing with Ye Zhiyi; her first thought was to call Summer immediately and anxiously wait for him.

"Little sister!" It was Xiao Xiong Ye (Young Dragon) who arrived first, he too having just received the news.

"Big brother, Grandpa… has fallen into unconsciousness again…" Tears welled up in Ye Mengying's eyes.veryone else following Prince Abiz.About ten minutes later, the cruise ship continued its journey forward while Xia Tian was still enjoying a silent romance with Princess Samara at the bow of the boat...
