“What’s wrong?” Nan Yan asked calmly, raising an eyebrow as she looked at her.

Lin Zhiyan bit her lip and explained, “Well, Elder Zhong has been calling me these past few days, subtly trying to inquire about you…”

In fact, when she first received a call from Elder Zhong, she was pleasantly surprised. She had no idea why Elder Zhong was calling her.

But when she nervously answered the call, he asked her a few questions about art, and then the conversation quickly shifted to inquire about Nan Yan.

The second call and the third call were no different. Lin Zhiyan knew that Elder

Zhong had a way to contact Nan Yan, which confirmed that they knew each other. However, she felt that Elder Zhong’s inquiries were not about the information she had shared with him.

When it came to matters concerning Nan Yan, she wouldn’t reveal anything without Nan Yan’s permission, even to someone she respected the most.

“Alright, I’ll give him a call when I have the time so that he won’t keep bothering you. ”

“No, no,” Lin Zhiyan hastily waved her hands. “I don’t find Elder Zhong bothersome at all, really!”

She wouldn’t dare to have such thoughts. It was an honor for her that Elder Zhong took the initiative to contact her.

Nan Yan sat on the edge of the bed and looked up at her, saying lightly, “Zhiyan, if you’re willing, you can start attending school in the second half of this year.”

“Really?” Lin Zhiyan’s eyes immediately lit up.

“It’s about time. You can ask your parents to arrange it for you.”

There were three months left until the start of the second half of the year. Nan Yan was confident that she could help Lin Zhiyan recover to the point where she could lead a normal life in that time.

“I want to go to the same school as you!”

Lin Zhiyan had been receiving private tutoring and online education. With her current level of knowledge, she had already completed high school coursework and could even take the university entrance exam directly. However, she wanted to be with Nan Yan more than anything else.

“That’s fine. In the second half of the year, Little Nai will also take the entrance exam for Zhide High School. Then we can all be in the same school, which would be nice.”

“Yeah, I’ll tell my parents today and ask them to arrange it in advance!”

Nan Yan spent about an hour with Lin Zhiyan and then decided to visit the hospital. On her way, she made sure to contact Elder Zhong.

After half a minute of ringing, Elder Zhong finally answered the call. His voice, weathered by age, came through on the phone.

“Hello,” he greeted.

“Elder Zhong, I heard from Zhiyan that you’ve been calling her, inquiring about me.”

“It’s you!” Elder Zhong’s tone suddenly became excited. “Are you Nyan?”

Nan Yan didn’t deny it further and replied softly, “Next month, I’ll come to the capital to meet you, and we can talk face to face.”

She had met Zhong Changning at an art exhibition in Country M. At that time, he had a sudden medical emergency, and she happened to be nearby and saved him. That’s how they met, and they had developed a good relationship since then. Zhong Changning had even stayed a few extra days in Country M just to spend time with her and had given her a painting before leaving.

Although they hadn’t met in person since then, they frequently communicated online, and she often sent him some medicine.

Considering the timing, she thought it was time to have him checked again.

“You’re coming?”

“Yes, I have some business to attend to.”

The National Computer Competition took place during the summer break after the exams, and it was happening in the capital city.

“Alright, I’ll be waiting for you!”

“See you in a month.”

After chatting for a bit longer, Nan Yan hung up the phone as she arrived at the hospital. She took the elevator straight to the inpatient department.

She first went to Tao Qingming’s office but didn’t find him there. After changing into a white coat and meticulously fastening the buttons, she went to see Professor Yun and Fu Yubai.

“Fu Linfeng, you’ve got some nerve, actually daring to hit me!”

A furious roar echoed from Fu Yubai’s hospital room, followed by sounds of a scuffle.

Nan Yan had originally planned to see Professor Yun first, but upon hearing the commotion inside, her expression turned cold, and she pushed the door open.

In the hospital room, Fu Yubai looked pale, his lips slightly pressed together, weakly sitting on the bed. There was a crimson stain of blood on the white sheets, which he had just vomited.

Fu Linfeng was being beaten mercilessly by a middle-aged man, unable to retaliate in any way.

Inside the hospital room, there were three or four men with unfriendly expressions.

“Wu Bo, stop it.”

Fu Yubai, seeing Fu Linfeng taking a beating, had a face as cold as ice. He placed his right hand on his chest, enduring excruciating pain.

“Big brother, don’t move; I’m fine.”

Fu Linfeng gritted his teeth, enduring the pain without making a sound.

As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Yunhai kicked him in the calf.

He staggered back, falling to his knees in a sorry state.

Fu Linfeng had braced himself for the next blow, but after waiting for a while with his eyes closed, he felt no pain on his body. Instead, he heard screams from someone else. He couldn’t help but open his eyes.

He then saw Nan Yan, shrouded in an intimidating cold aura, her slender and delicate hand gripping Fu Yunhai’s wrist.

Fu Yunhai’s face had already contorted, and he was trying to break free from Nan Yan’s grasp. However, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t break free.

“Who are you? Do you know who I am? Let go of me immediately!”

Fu Yunhai roared in pain.

Nan Yan twisted her hand, then lifted her foot and kicked behind his knee.

Fu Yunhai knelt on the ground in a miserable state, feeling like his knee was about to shatter.

“You’re all going to die! Just watching me get beaten?”

Fu Yunhai’s intent was to have the others come to his aid. Unfortunately, after he shouted, none of the other three men moved.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to, but at the moment, each of them had a silver needle inserted into their vital points. The slightest movement would result in their deaths!

Upon entering the room, Nan Yan first dealt with the troublesome individuals before addressing Fu Yunhai. This way, she avoided a chaotic brawl that could further worsen Fu Yubai’s condition.

Fu Linfeng stared at Nan Yan in astonishment and muttered, “Divine doctor! You actually possess martial skills!”

He was utterly dumbfounded!

Nan Yan narrowed her eyes at him. “Can you still get up?

“I can, of course!”

Fu Linfeng gritted his teeth and endured the intense pain in his leg as he slowly stood up.

“Then hit back.” Nan Yan gave another kick to Fu Yunhai, causing him to collapse on the ground.

Fu Linfeng nodded frantically and, biting his lip, began to pummel Fu Yunhai.

Nan Yan went to check on Fu Yubai.

The moment she entered, Fu Yubai saw her.

He also witnessed her taking action against the other intruders from different families.

Therefore, when he saw her helping Fu Linfeng, his anxious emotions eased a bit.

However, the stimulation he experienced, coupled with the relaxation, put too much pressure on his body. He couldn’t withstand such a great stress, and blood began to ooze from his mouth.

He squinted at Nan Yan as she approached him, and in a dazed state, he murmured, “Little… junior sister…”

“Is it really you?”
