Yan Ye can take care of Ji Chuan for dinner and can chat with him, but he definitely can't stay at Ji Chuan's place overnight.
There's Lin Qiushu and the kids at home; he certainly needs to go back and take care of them.
Xiaomei didn't know how to handle Yan Huan's eagerness to go home, so she had no choice but to agree to take her back.
Section Chief Wei knew about Yan Huan's family situation. Seeing her insist on leaving, he called a car to take her directly to the family compound of the PLA Affiliated Hospital.
The distance from the unit to the hospital is quite close; the drive is only about ten minutes, much closer than the train station is to the hospital. Although Yan Huan left after Qiu Xinyi, she arrived at the family compound ahead of her.
Xiaomei took Yan Huan upstairs and knocked on Ji Chuan's dormitory door.
