Bo Jingxing said expressionlessly: "It's okay, hang up now."
Having said that, he didn't give Ye Wangchuan the chance to continue talking to him. He took away his phone and hung up the call without hesitation. He took a deep breath, swallowed the dog food stuck in his throat, and walked back to find Yuan Yongqin and the others.
"Thin… "
Without waiting for Yuan Yongqin to speak, Bo Jingxing said concisely: "Wangchuan and Miss Qiao are fine. They were rescued by passing fishermen. They are now on a small island 1,000 nautical miles away from here. Except for a minor injury to his back, Miss Qiao is unharmed. They didn't contact us before because the signal tower on the island where they stayed was damaged by heavy rain, and it took them some time to repair the signal."
Yuan Yongqin breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Qiao Nian was not injured. Her tense nerves relaxed and she managed to raise the corners of her mouth: "That's good."
Bo Jingxing looked at her face which had become much more haggard in just two days, reached out his hand and gently patted her shoulders twice: "Don't worry, Mr. Yuan."
"Yeah." Yuan Yongqin relaxed her frown, smiled for the first time in the past few days, and politely said to him, "Thank you."
Bo Jingxing withdrew his hand and looked at Guan Yan again: "Sun is fine."
Guan Yan nodded: "I heard it."
She was bright and forthright as always, and asked directly, "How are you going to pick them up?"
Without waiting for Bo Jingxing to answer, she pointed at the search boat on the island not far away with the corner of her eye, turned her head and said to Bo Jingxing: "If you don't want those people to follow you, you definitely can't leave here. Why don't you let me go pick them up."
"I'll go too." Yuan Yongqin said immediately.
Guan Yan held her back and said rationally and restrainedly, "Aunt Yuan, you stay here. I will take a few brothers from the Red Alliance with me."
"I… "
She shook her head at Yuan Yongqin and said seriously, "We can't have too many people go, otherwise it will arouse those people's suspicion."
She said to Bo Jingxing, "It's best if I go. They are focusing on what's going on in Beijing, but not paying much attention to me."
After a brief thought, Bo Jingxing felt that what Guan Yan said made sense, so he stopped Ji Lin's subordinates who were originally going to pick up the people, and changed it to let Guan Yan drive a speedboat to pick up the people. Since the plan to pick up the people was changed, Bo Jingxing called Shangjing City again, told Ye Lan about Ye Wangchuan's intention, and asked Ye Lan to arrange another ferry to pick up the speedboat.
At this critical juncture, Ye Wangchuan wanted to keep a low profile and not let anyone know his whereabouts in advance, so the safest option was to take the tourist ferry.
No one would count the people on the tourist ferry, and no one would have thought that Ye Wangchuan and Qiao Nian would appear on the ferry back to Beijing.

Beijing city.
When Ye Maoshan learned that Ye Wangchuan and Qiao Nian were both fine and were on their way back, he was suddenly shocked and felt better physically.
He just measured his blood pressure this morning and it hasn't gone down yet.
Later, I received a call from Ye Wangchuan reporting that he was safe. I had already uncovered the quilt, changed clothes and prepared to be discharged from the hospital.
He asked the guards to help him pack up.
The ward was bustling with activity.
It was at this time that Ye Shan came in dressed in black and saw the old man, who was supposed to be lying on the hospital bed, directing the scene in great spirits.
She walked in with a surprised look on her face: "Old man, why don't you lie down on the bed and rest? What are you doing?"
Ye Maoshan turned around and saw her, Ye Keji, and more than a dozen members of the Ye family who had arrived. His brows fell.
“You’re here.”
Ye Keji greeted him respectfully: "Mr. Ye."
Ye Maoshan was not very welcoming to them and casually said, "Find a seat for yourselves. If there is no room, just stand." (End of this chapter)
