CHAPTER 83: CHAPTER 83: FINDING A WAY OUT FOR HERSELF

He Jinxuan saw her accept it, and a smile appeared on his face.

Actually, the doctor said he could be discharged and go home to recuperate in a few days, but he didn’t really want to leave the hospital now.

If he were discharged, then Yu Xinyan’s living arrangements would become a problem. He didn’t mind, but he couldn’t disregard her reputation.

With her personality, he feared that as soon as he returned home, she’d immediately bring up leaving.

But three days later, he still handled the discharge procedures and had the people from the security department tidy up his dorm in advance. He moved directly there, as he couldn’t continue occupying medical resources.

Seeing that his household registration issue remained unresolved, Yu Xinyan was quite anxious these days too.

When she brought breakfast to He Jinxuan: "Director He, I’ll go back and tidy up in a while. I need to make a trip to the city. I’ve simmered some radish soup on the stove and steamed some dry food. Could you please heat it up for the two kids at noon?"

Yu Xinyan was delivering meals to the security department dorm, not because He Jinxuan couldn’t walk, but because He Jinxuan didn’t want to return and eat together to avoid gossip.

These days, Yu Xinyan saw that He Jinxuan’s leg was almost healed and began to find her own path.

She didn’t want to return to the Yu Family, so she first had to solve her household registration issue; otherwise, she couldn’t even take the college entrance exam.

Moreover, when she ran into Lyu Juncheng that day, she saw the hatred in his eyes and his threatening words, fearing that before long, someone from Beilan Village would come over.

Previously, Lyu Juncheng’s family had been in turmoil, likely not having the chance, but seeing her living so contentedly now might leave him feeling unbalanced.

Given his despicable nature, he’d surely seek revenge on her.

Thus, a solution for the household registration must be found urgently. If she waited until someone from the Yu family came, and it still wasn’t resolved, the issue would become more complicated.

During this time, she had been inquiring around. Currently, in order to settle one’s household registration, one had to either marry, get a job, or buy a house.

But after several trips to the city, buying a house seemed a matter of chance rather than certainty. Although she had made quite a bit of money fishing Yuquan River these days, it was far from enough to buy a house.

As for getting a job, this path might not work either, given the peak period of educated youths returning to cities. They couldn’t even settle them, so what chance did she have? The only option left was marriage, but she wanted to find someone who would wholly cherish her in heart and mind, which wasn’t easy.

He Jinxuan saw Yu Xinyan was somewhat distracted today. He wanted to ask, but feared she might think he was meddling.

He nodded at her, saying, "Sure, take care."

Currently, thanks to Yu Xinyan’s intentional efforts—often using delicious grilled or stewed fish to entice them—Ye Silai and Ye Siyan had become part of the neighborhood children’s group. After meals, they would play together with the other kids.

Because of this, He Jinxuan was particularly grateful to Yu Xinyan. Not only did she take great care of them, but she also helped them truly adapt to life in the compound, making the two children much more outgoing.

Previously, Silai always had a cold little adult demeanor, while Little Siyan had become self-abasing after losing his mother and facing others’ disdain.

Now, both children had regained their natural childlike disposition, which truly surprised and filled him with gratitude, making him want to pay more attention to her and understand her better.

In the late morning, Ye Silai brought his younger brother and a group of children over: "Uncle, Sister said you would come back to heat the food for us at noon, and asked me to help you carry the lunchboxes."

This was the task given to him by his sister when she went out in the morning, as he worried that it would be inconvenient for his uncle to carry things while using crutches.

However, when He Jinxuan heard this, it brought about a different feeling in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but lift into a smile...
