Chapter 92 - 92: Looks Like This Crisis Won’t Be So Easily Resolved…
An Xiran and Nan Yan were on a call together.
Tao Qingming’s voice was transmitted through the earphones, and An Xiran could hear everything clearly.
“Little friend Nan? What’s with the nickname? Where are you? Why is there an old man’s voice around you?”
An Xiran felt anxious. If he weren’t in a sealed training base right now, he would have rushed to find Nan Yan and see what was going on.
Nan Yan remained composed, “I’ll explain later, I’m going to log off the game now.”
Tao Qingming couldn’t hear An Xiran’s voice, but he could tell from Nan Yan’s reply that something was bothering her.
“Little friend Nan, am I disturbing you?”
Nan Yan was waiting in the living room for Qin Lu to arrive instead of the room Tao Qingming had arranged for her.
“Not at all.” Nan Yan smiled, her clear peach blossom eyes forming a beautiful curve. “Elder Tao, I’ll leave with my brother now and meet you at the hospital tomorrow.”
“Alright,” Tao Oingming agreed politely.
Outside, Qin Lu had just parked his car.
As he got out of the car, he saw Nan Yan walking towards him with a backpack on her shoulders, dressed casually and wearing a cap.
“Brother.”
Nan Yan greeted him obediently.
Qin Lu looked at her and asked, “Are you all packed?”
“Yes, I only stayed for one day, so I didn’t bring much,” Nan Yan replied.
Qin Lu took the backpack from her and nodded towards Tao Qingming, “Elder Tao, I’ll take her now.”
Tao Qingming smiled, “Sure, take care on the way.”
With just one backpack, it wasn’t necessary to put it in the trunk. Qin Lu placed it on the back seat directly.
Nan Yan sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt. She opened the message An Xiran had sent.
[Yan Yan, to be honest, where are you? Who is that brother? And who was the person speaking just now?]
An Xiran was sincerely fond of his little sister, caring about her well-being and worried that she might be deceived or get into trouble.
He wanted to make up for all the shortcomings of the past eighteen years and let her know that her family cared for her and loved her.
An Xiran was financially independent a long time ago. He owned the AEG team, was a shareholder in the team, and he was a star esports player with endorsements and appearance fees.
Whatever his little sister wanted, he could give her. There was no need for any other brother!
Of course, Nan Yan couldn’t perceive these thoughts from An Xiran across the screen.
Nan Yan pinched her brow, and her fingertips tapped the screen lightly:
[You’ve met that brother before. The one who was speaking just now is Tao Qingming. Don’t worry, Fourth Brother. Just focus on your training, I’m fine.]
An Xiran: [Oh…]
Knowing the identity of the person on the other side, An Xiran felt relieved.
He had met Qin Lu before and knew that he had helped Nan Yan in the past.
As for Tao Qingming, he also knew about him.
He was the director of the First Hospital’s Chinese Medicine Department and the president of the Chinese Medicine Association.
However, he had no idea how his little sister got in contact with Tao Qingming.
From Tao Qingming’s attitude towards Nan Yan, it was clear that they had a good relationship.
An Xiran scratched his silver-gray hair, unable to figure things out.
He decided not to think about it for now and focus on his training.
The car stopped in front of a magnificent mansion.
Nan Yan looked through the car window and had a better understanding of the profound background of the Qin family.
The mansion in front of her had a history of at least a hundred years, grand and imposing, with an extremely vast estate.
The gatekeeper let Qin Lu’s car pass without any obstruction.
“Yan Yan, let’s get out of the car.”
Qin Lu’s deep and magnetic voice sounded as if he was whispering in her ear in the quiet car.
Nan Yan’s ears turned hot, and she turned off her phone, obediently responding, “Okay.”
Qin Lu looked at her and saw her lowering her head, looking adorably well-behaved.
Was she trying to show goodwill, afraid that he would find fault with her first?
“Little one, are you feeling guilty?” Qin Lu questioned.
Nan Yan:
She wasn’t feeling guilty at all!
But there was no need to clarify this!
She lifted her head and smiled sweetly, “Brother, Grandma is getting impatient. Shall we go see her first?”
“Alright. Later tonight, I’ll ask you again, little one,” Qin Lu said.
Nan Yan:
Looks like this crisis won’t be so easily resolved…
Old Madam Qin knew in advance that Nan Yan was coming and had been waiting in the living room for a while.
Nanny Li, who had served her for decades, had been hearing her talk about Nan Yan since she returned yesterday.
Now that Nan Yan was about to arrive, she couldn’t help but wait excitedly.
“Old Madam, is this young lady really as good as you described her? She’s so outstanding?” Nanny Li had been living in the Qin family for more than a decade and had seen her share of noble young ladies and daughters of scholarly families. She had a high standard, so she couldn’t help but feel that her descriptions of Nan Yan were a bit exaggerated.
After all, she had seen countless well-born young ladies and belles from prestigious families in the capital. Most of them were exceptionally beautiful and had excellent temperament.
But Old Madam Qin said that her granddaughter-in-law was even better than those well-born young ladies, which she found hard to believe.
“Of course, just wait until you see her, then you’ll know that I haven’t exaggerated at all,” Old Madam Qin replied with a beaming smile.
The Qin family had many descendants, and there were plenty of grandsons and granddaughters. However, very few received such open and obvious favor from the Old Madam Qin.
Her expectations for her future granddaughter-in-law were extremely high, and she had always been strict and imposing. The young masters and misses in the family were all a little afraid of her.
So Nanny Li couldn’t help but feel a bit at a loss when she saw the Old Madam Qin’s reaction.
Suddenly, she saw the figures of two people appearing at the entrance.
She quickly widened her eyes to get a better look at the young girl.
As a result, she was even more stunned by what she saw.
Was this really the same cold and unapproachable young master who didn’t care about worldly affairs?
Not only was he carrying a backpack, but he also had a faint smile on his face, and he even touched the young girl’s head!
This… This…
Nanny Li couldn’t make sense of it all and turned her head to look at the Old
Madam Qin.
She was even more surprised by the Old Madam Qin’s reaction. She was already standing up anxiously.
“Nan Yan, you’re here!” Old Madam Qin’s eyes were brimming with tears. “I’ve missed you so much!”
Nanny Li:
She was even more at a loss!
This stern Old Madam Qin, how could she show such a face!
However, the future granddaughter-in-law of her young master indeed looked beautiful!
Compared to those noble young ladies she had seen, she was even more beautiful!
And her temperament was no less exceptional!
Nan Yan removed Qin Lu’s hand from her head, walked quickly to the Old Madam Qin, and held her arm. She smiled helplessly, “Grandma, it’s only been a day since we last met.”
In fact, it wasn’t even a full day. After all, they had dinner together yesterday evening…
The Old Madam Qin wiped her tears and replied with a smile, “In ancient times, it was said that one day apart feels like three autumns. We haven’t seen each other for a whole day and night, which is equivalent to many autumns.
Naturally, Grandma misses you!”
Nan Yan: This was a bit too exaggerated!
Qin Lu put his backpack on the sofa and looked at the Old Madam Qin with a slight tug at the corner of his mouth, “Grandma, please tone it down a bit….”
