"Sales manager, that's a pretty good job. How much can you earn in a month?" Hu Liping smiled and added, "And how old are you this year?"

"Auntie, I'll be 25 after my next birthday," Ye Xuan replied.

"Only 25? And already a sales manager? That's truly young and promising, with a future beyond measure!"

Hu Liping's face lit up with surprise as she said, "Little Rou is about the same age as you, just two years younger! By the way, are you married yet?"

"I...I'm not married yet."

Ye Xuan thought for a while. Although he had registered with Lin Tong, they hadn't held a wedding yet, so he was technically not married.

"Not married? That's really great; our Little Rou isn't married either!"

Hu Liping looked delighted, her eyes filled with satisfaction, and then she asked, "Xiao Ye, what do you think of our Little Rou? Is she pretty?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan glanced at Bai Wenrou, who was driving intently and seemed unreactive.

He couldn't help but chuckle inside. He played along with Hu Liping's suggestion and said, "Officer Bai, of course, she's pretty! Beautiful, generous, gentle, and kind, she's a rare good girl who is also very just and responsible—a remarkable young person of the new era. I'm truly honored to be her friend."

Hearing Ye Xuan say this, Bai Wenrou couldn't help but hum softly. Though her face remained impassive, her heart was quite happy.

"Xiao Ye, since you think so, that's wonderful!"

Hu Liping beamed widely and continued, "Ye Xuan, since you think our Little Rou is so great, why don't you consider dating her? Little Rou doesn't have a boyfriend now, so you should seize the opportunity..."

Seeing the other party's joyous expression, Ye Xuan began to wonder whether she had fully recovered from her injuries; otherwise, why would she be so happy?

Upon hearing these words, Bai Wenrou, who was driving ahead, stumbled a bit and almost mistook the accelerator for the brake, her face instantly darkening.

Sitting in the back and seeing Bai Wenrou's stiff face, Ye Xuan was overjoyed!

Hahaha, good deeds do bear fruit! After helping out this chick so much, it's finally time to reap the rewards, perhaps even by getting married.

Although it wasn't Bai Wenrou's intention, that wouldn't stop Ye Xuan from using a circuitous tactic! Winning over this aunt first meant gaining a strong ally to slowly win over Officer Bai—he refused to believe she wouldn't agree.

Hu Liping had a good impression of Ye Xuan. Even though it was their first meeting, he had helped them a lot today. Just stopping the bleeding and pain for her made Hu Liping feel very favorable towards Ye Xuan!

Not only that, Ye Xuan had subdued a vicious thug, demonstrating his impressive skills. Add that to his good demeanor and respectable career, and he naturally left a good impression.

Though Bai Wenrou wasn't her own daughter, she had grown up in their home, treated like a biological daughter. Now of marriageable age, she was resistant to dating, and this worried Hu Liping as a guardian, prompting her to matchmake!

If they really got together, Bai Wenrou could solve her relationship issues and have security for her future, which would also make her happy for Wenrou.

However, while Hu Liping was thinking this way, Bai Wenrou was completely opposed to the idea!

"Aunt, what are you talking about? How could I end up with him? That's ridiculous—are you just randomly matchmaking?"

Bai Wenrou blushed, complaining.

"What nonsense? I'm not talking randomly! You're not getting any younger, and you should be worried about your situation. It's time to find a man and have a good relationship. I think Xiao Ye is great, and you two suit each other. Perhaps if you date, you'll end up together," Hu Liping said seriously, genuinely advising.

"Him? He's just a hooligan! His character is extremely poor, Aunt, you have no idea what kind of person he is."

Bai Wenrou said disdainfully, decisively exposing Ye Xuan's true nature.

She had to let Hu Liping know about this person's true self, lest she be deceived by Ye Xuan's "honest" exterior, which could ruin her life if she pushed herself into a pit that deep!

"Little Rou, I've walked more bridges than you've walked roads; I know you well! Don't badmouth Ye Xuan. Whenever it's about relationships, you come up with endless excuses! I'm telling you, Ye Xuan is really good; it's just you don't want to date," Hu Liping said righteously, somewhat exasperated.

"Love affairs are your business; I didn't plan to interfere. But after today's events, this must come earlier! If I experience another accident and you haven't settled down, what will I say to your mom when I go down there?"

"Aunt, don't say such things—nothing will happen to you. You'll absolutely be safe," Bai Wenrou frowned tightly and scolded lightly.

"If you want me safe, then date Xiao Ye!" Hu Liping declared without hesitation.

Bai Wenrou said helplessly, "Aunt, stop randomly matchmaking. He already has a girlfriend; how could I date him? Am I supposed to break up his relationship?"

"What? He has a girlfriend?" Hu Liping paused, surprised.

"Yes, if you don't believe me, just ask him yourself," Bai Wenrou said confidently.

Before Hu Liping could turn her head to ask, Ye Xuan volunteered, "Auntie, I do indeed have a girlfriend."

"Uh...so that's the case? Haha, Auntie didn't understand the situation, just forget everything I said."

Hu Liping chuckled awkwardly, showing an apologetic expression, realizing she was indeed meddling. The guy already had a girlfriend, and she was trying to set him up with Little Rou—it was a bit inappropriate.

Though she hoped Bai Wenrou would find her partner soon, she wouldn't make her chase after someone who was already taken, even if she liked him.

Bai Wenrou relaxed, thankful she persuaded Hu Liping with this reason. If she was truly pushed into Ye Xuan's arms, she wasn't mentally prepared and didn't know how to proceed.

9 PM.

East Sea City Hospital.

With a creak, the hospital room door opened slightly. Bai Wenrou quietly stepped out from Hu Liping's room and gently closed the door behind her.

"Ye Xuan, my aunt is fine now. The surgery was successful, and the doctor said that with a period of rest, she can be discharged."

Seeing Ye Xuan standing by the door, Bai Wenrou approached slowly and lowered her voice.

"That's good."

Ye Xuan nodded, his eyes suddenly lit up as he glanced towards the spot by the window, motioning with his mouth, "Ahem...how about we go over there to talk? We shouldn't disturb Auntie's rest."

"Sure!"

Bai Wenrou didn't think much of it and followed Ye Xuan over.
