“Not you, then who?”

“Let her tell you herself, anyway, it’s not me.”

Dr. Lu thought about how Nan Yan didn’t want to reveal her identity before, unsure if her family knew about her medical skills, and decided not to interfere.

“Old Master An will be taken to the ward shortly. I just wanted to inform you first so you can be at ease.”

An Yaoqing politely said, “Regardless, we must thank Dr. Lu.”

After exchanging pleasantries a couple of times, Dr. Lu called over two nurses to prepare the VIP ward.

An Mulin and An Xiran, as family members, also joined in to help prepare.

Another ten minutes passed.

The door of the intensive care unit opened once again.

This time, it was Old Master An being pushed out.

Nan Yan followed behind, putting her coat back on and talking to Tao Qingming on the side.

She didn’t have much time to stay at the hospital. Taking care of Old Master An’s affairs had to be entrusted to the hospital. These days, she needed to refine medicines for both Old Master An and the Old Master from the Cheng family.

Tao Qingming nodded attentively, earnestly taking note of what she said.

An Yaoqing and Elder Tian didn’t pay any attention to her; they were focused on Old Master An.

Only Qin Lu went over to Nan Yan’s side, taking out a lollipop from his pocket, unwrapping it, and offering it to her lips.

Almost instinctively, Nan Yan opened her mouth and let the candy into it. The sweet taste instantly spread in her mouth, pleasing her taste buds.

“Tired?”

“Not too much.” Nan Yan’s voice was a bit muffled as she sucked on the candy. The mental exertion had taken a toll on her, leaving her slightly fatigued.

“Are you staying overnight here?”

Nan Yan shook her head, “No, Grandfather won’t wake up today. I’m going back to rest. I’ll come see him again tomorrow.”

Qin Lu gently rubbed her head, “That’s fine, let’s go to the ward and see him first. Then shall we head back?”

“Okay.”

In the hospital room, Old Master An had been moved to a bed.

An Mulin and An Xiran were busy making sure he was well-covered and adjusting the room’s temperature to a comfortable level.

The brush with death had greatly impacted Old Master An’s body. If it hadn’t been for Nan Yan’s exceptional medical skills, he might have already become a corpse.

However, Old Master An’s condition hadn’t improved much either.

His pale face had a bluish-gray tinge, his eyes were closed, and he had an oxygen mask over his mouth and nose. The thin arm under the bend had an IV drip attached, with medication slowly entering his body.

Tao Qingming, taking Nan Yan’s place, was explaining precautions to the An family.

Once he finished, Nan Yan made sure that Old Master An’s condition had stabilized, informed Elder Tian, and then headed directly outside.

An Xiran stopped her, “Nan Yan, are you leaving?”

Nan Yan lazily nodded, “Grandfather won’t wake up today. Leave someone here to keep watch. The rest of you can go rest.”

“In that case, let me give you a ride,” An Xiran said and was about to follow her outside.

“No need, Fourth Brother. Someone is giving me a ride.”

An Mulin came over, “Nan Yan…”

Without even giving him a glance, Nan Yan grabbed onto Qin Lu’s sleeve and pulled him along as they left.

An Mulin’s breath paused, his expression somewhat awkward, as he watched the two of them walk out of the hospital room like that.

An Xiran just glanced indifferently at An Mulin’s embarrassed state due to South Smoke. He didn’t show any other reaction.

Afterwards, he returned to the bedside and said, “You guys can go back now. I’ll stay here with Grandfather.”

Elder Tian chimed in, “No need, all of you can go back. I’ll stay here with Grandfather.”

An Xiran suggested, “Uncle Tian, you’ve been worried and anxious all day too. You should rest as well. How about this: you and I stay here; there’s a bed in the hospital room. We can take turns sleeping?”

Given that both of them had come out from the base, it didn’t really matter if they didn’t return today.

Elder Tian nodded, “Then, I’ll trouble Fourth Young Master.”

As for An Yaoqing and An Mulin, they were ignored and left on the outside.

An Yaoqing remembered that Lu Le Hua was still in another hospital, so he didn’t insist on staying and went to check up on her first.

As for An Mulin, he went to conduct an investigation that he had intended to do earlier but hadn’t had the chance.

After getting in the car, Nan Yan quickly grew drowsy. Initially, she fought off the sleepiness, but eventually succumbed, drifting into a deep slumber.

When Qin Lu noticed that she had fallen asleep with her eyes closed, he stopped the car and went over to her side.

Opening the car door, he was just about to bend down to unbuckle her seatbelt when Nan Yan suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed his hand.

A faint chill emanated from her eyes, coupled with a deep wariness and hostility.

Also, there was a hint of bewilderment, like she hadn’t fully awakened yet.

“Nan Yan, it’s me,” Qin Lu reassured her, using his other hand to gently stroke her head. “Go to sleep, we’ve arrived.”

Under his gentle touch, Nan Yan closed her eyes again.

The sense of security emanating from Qin Lu and his familiar voice caused her to let down her guard and relax her grip on his hand.

After the ordeal of saving Old Master An, she had expended too much mental energy, leaving her quite fatigued. Closing her eyes, she almost instantly drifted back into a deep slumber.

Qin Lu leaned over, preparing to unbuckle her seatbelt. He then picked her up in his arms.

Nan Yan was quite slim, and her body was very light. As he held her, Qin Lu’s eyebrows unconsciously furrowed.

How could she be so light?

She had barely any weight, and she felt like a feather that could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Looks like he’d have to make sure she gets proper nutrition in the future.

Being this thin was simply heart-wrenching.

Carrying her all the way, Qin Lu took the elevator. When they reached their floor, he didn’t search for Nan Yan’s keys but instead opened the door to the opposite room.

He placed her in the room where Old Madam Oin used to stay, took off her coat and shoes, then pulled the covers over her.

After completing these tasks, he turned and left with brisk steps.

Leaning against the window, he lit a cigarette. The intermittent red glow flickered at his fingertip.

His gaze, however, was dark and deep, devoid of any trace of light.

Really..

He closed his eyes, pressing his temples hard.

How could he have known that the small girl, who looked so fragile, actually had such an enticing figure?

That silent temptation almost made him lose control.

Fortunately, his self-control was strong enough…
