“Dr. Nan, your focused look reminds me of someone I know,” Fu Yubai said with a slight tilt of his gaze, watching Nan Yan as she earnestly checked his pulse, his tone warm.

“Is that so?” Nan Yan replied with her usual cool tone, her expression unchanged. “I suppose doctors tend to look similar when they’re focused.”

She didn’t want to acknowledge her identity to him right now. At least, she wanted to make sure of her safety first before revealing anything. In her current situation, she didn’t know how to talk to him.

Fu Yubai gave a gentle smile and didn’t press the matter further. It seemed like his previous comment had been made casually.

Meanwhile, Qin Lu stood not too far away from Nan Yan, his gaze fixed on her. He had overheard their conversation. Given his knowledge of Nan Yan, he suspected there might be some connection between this man and her.

“Continue taking your medication; you shouldn’t expose yourself to stress for a while,” Nan Yan advised Fu Yubai.

Even if they managed to retrieve the Fireflint Stone and Blood Lingzhi

Mushroom, they couldn’t use them for his treatment in the short term.

Fu Yubai slowly retracted his hand, adjusted his sleeve with a graceful movement, and folded his hands over his abdomen. He exuded an inherent elegance and warmth.

His clear eyes maintained a gentle smile.

No matter whom he faced, he always displayed such warmth and courtesy.

Nan Yan stood up straight, pondered for a moment, and asked, “Why did you wait so long to seek treatment for your condition? With the resources of the Fu family, if you had consulted a renowned doctor as soon as you discovered your illness, it wouldn’t have been much trouble, and you could have easily been cured.”

He had delayed seeking treatment for so long that his condition had deteriorated to the point where it was incurable, despite the Fu family’s capabilities.

If it hadn’t been for her stumbling upon Fu Linfeng’s post seeking medicine on the Dark Realm, he might have succumbed within a few more days.

Nan Yan was truly relieved that she had encountered Fu Linfeng. Otherwise, she would have been overwhelmed with guilt if she had learned about Third Senior Brother’s illness and death later.

Fu Yubai sighed helplessly, “I realized it too late, and I didn’t take it seriously at the time, so it has ended up like this.”

“That’s not true!”

Fu Linfeng, who had been on the phone by the window, hung up the call and rushed over when he heard their conversation.

“Big Brother, your illness was clearly forced upon you by those elders in the family!” He said indignantly, “If they had shown even a bit of concern for you, you wouldn’t be in this condition right now!”

“Xiaofeng!”

Fu Yubai’s tone was not very harsh, but it carried a sternness.

Fu Linfeng clenched his teeth, closed his mouth, and stood aside. Fu Yubai apologized, “I’m sorry, Xiaofeng is still young and doesn’t understand.”

Fu Linfeng was speechless and muttered to himself, “Young? Is he younger than this little miracle doctor? He’s already twenty-two!”

It was clear that if those elders in the family hadn’t burdened his older brother with everything, his older brother wouldn’t have become so seriously ill.

He just couldn’t understand why his older brother would risk his life to take care of such a heartless and indifferent family!

But…

These were thoughts he dared only keep to himself.

“If Big Brother doesn’t want to listen, then I won’t say anymore,” Fu Linfeng thought. At this moment, he didn’t want to risk making his brother angry.

“Will they disturb you during your treatment?” Nan Yan maintained her composure on the surface, but there was a hint of seriousness in her eyes.

“No, I no longer involve myself in family matters,” Fu Yubai replied.

So, could it be understood that those elders had stripped him of his authority when they believed he had no chance of recovery due to his severe illness?

Nan Yan couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.

Fine.

Was her person someone to be bullied like this?

But for now, she had to put the matter concerning the Fu family aside. Third Senior Brother’s health was more important.

“As long as they don’t disturb you, Mr. Fu, I hope that during the time I’m treating you, you’ll only focus on taking care of your own health and not worry about anything else.”

“You know it yourself, your body can’t withstand any turmoil. Will you obediently follow the doctor’s advice? Can you do that?”

Fu Yubai looked at Nan Yan’s slightly tender face.

In a daze, it seemed like he was looking at his junior sister standing before him, hands on her hips, sternly ordering him not to do this or that…

If it weren’t for the disparity in age and appearance, he might have believed that she was indeed his junior sister.

“Alright,” he responded after coming back to his senses, smiling gently.

Qin Lu observed Fu Yubai and Nan Yan thoughtfully, a hint of darkness in his eyes.

The little one seemed to care a bit too much about this patient.

“Rest well. If you need anything, you can find Elder Tao,” Nan Yan advised before leaving the hospital room.

Her stay here was longer than with Professor Yun by more than ten minutes.

After exchanging a few more words with Tao Qingming, Nan Yan and Qin Lu exited the hospital.

“Little one,” Qin Lu began.

“Hmm?” Nan Yan looked at him.

Qin Lu held her hand and casually asked, “You’re the acquaintance he mentioned, right?”

Nan Yan replied, “…”

Did he have to be this perceptive?

“Yes,” she admitted.

She didn’t feel like lying to Qin Lu about these matters.

“Why don’t you want to acknowledge him then?”

Nan Yan remained silent for a moment before saying, “It’s not the right time yet.”

“Let’s wait until he recovers.”

He couldn’t handle any kind of shock right now.

If he were to find out that she had been killed by someone and then reborn in her current body, it would undoubtedly be a shock to him.

After hearing her response, Qin Lu gently squeezed her hand. A few minutes of silence passed, and Nan Yan turned to look at him.

“Brother, don’t you have any questions for me?”

Under the sunlight, the man’s face seemed to be plated with a layer of golden light, perfect like a piece of art.

It was a face that could leave people breathless and irresistibly drawn to him.

Nan Yan thought she might gradually succumb to his charm; this face of his definitely played a significant role!

She liked beautiful things, and naturally, she had no resistance to handsome people.

“I’m willing to wait until the day you’re ready to tell me, even though it feels a bit distant. But I believe my patience can endure,” he said with a seductive, low, and magnetic voice, a hint of amusement in his tone.

Then, he expressed his resentment with a teasing tone, “You haven’t inquired about my matters either, have you?”

“Brother, I’m hungry,” Nan Yan abruptly changed the topic in a stiff manner.

Continuing this conversation could be dangerous. “It’s not a problem. What would you like to eat?”

“Anything, I’m not picky.”

Qin Lu pinched her smooth cheek and chuckled, “Alright, my little one is easy to please.”

Then, he took Nan Yan to a private restaurant.

Nan Yan wasn’t particular about her food; as long as it was delicious, she was open to any cuisine. She was easygoing and had modest material requirements as long as she had enough to eat and wear.

However, Qin Lu wanted to provide her with the best of everything. The private restaurant he took her to was one of the top establishments in Jin City.

The daily meals at this restaurant were pre-ordered in large quantities and booked well in advance. But for Qin Lu, arranging a meal here was a simple matter.

When they entered the restaurant, they spotted a familiar face….
