Upon hearing the voice on the phone, Qin Lu’s brows furrowed slightly.

Whose hands was Yanyan’s phone in?

“Who are you?” Qin Lu’s deep and authoritative voice came through the phone and into Yanyan’s ears.

Instantly, he felt his nerves tighten.

“I’m sorry,” a flustered Yu Kai’an handed the phone to Nan Yan, “I accidentally answered your call.”

Nan Yan took the phone, glanced at the screen, and said to him, “It’s okay,” before placing the phone to her ear.

“Brother, is something wrong?” she asked.

“Who just answered the phone?”

“The son of the headmaster,” Nan Yan explained, “I asked him to call the headmaster and let her know you’re safe. Who would have thought you’d call just now and he answered by mistake?”

Qin Lu’s brow furrowed, “Did you go to T City?”

Yu Kai’an was studying at a university in T City. Qin Lu had only just learned about Yu Kai’an’s kidnapping. Originally, he had planned to send someone to rescue him, but it seemed he was too late.

“Has it been resolved?” he asked.

“Yes,” Nan Yan replied. She noticed that Yu Kai’an’s lips were turning purple, so she held his wrist with one hand while talking to Qin Lu on the phone.

Yu Kai’an trembled slightly and almost instinctively pulled his hand away, but he managed to restrain himself and let Nan Yan continue taking his pulse.

“Brother, I’ve reported the situation to the police, and they’ve arrested the people here. Once everything is sorted out, I’ll head back. I have some other matters to attend to here. We can talk later.”

After saying that, she hung up the phone and took Yu Kai’an’s other hand, continuing to check his pulse.

Yu Kai’an was stunned by Nan Yan’s sudden serious expression, and for a moment, he dared not breathe. He wondered if something was seriously wrong.

He knew that Nan Yan was skilled in medicine. Recently, when his mother, Luo Xiaojun, called him, she often mentioned Nan Yan and how she had cured her of some old health issues. Did he have some kind of terminal illness? Previously, when those men were beating him, although they were quite forceful, he felt that they had only caused surface injuries. They had used their fists, so he didn’t think there would be significant internal damage.

Yu Kai’an’s nerves were stretched taut, fearing that he might have some incurable illness.

Finally, Nan Yan released his wrist and took out a silver needle from her clothing. She quickly inserted more than a dozen needles into his abdomen. Then she calmly instructed, “You’ll need surgery at the hospital later.”

“Um, Nan Yan, there won’t be something growing inside me, will there?” He felt a bit scared.

“No, it’s just that your spleen was ruptured by their beating, and it needs to be surgically repaired.”

A ruptured spleen was a serious medical condition, and even a slight delay could lead to severe bleeding and a life-threatening situation. He had to thank her for carrying silver needles and some emergency medication with her.

Otherwise, even if his spleen rupture wasn’t too severe, if they delayed getting him to the hospital, his spleen might have had to be removed. With her here, it only required a minimally invasive procedure to repair and save his spleen.

Yu Kai’an’s complexion didn’t look good; he had been frightened by what had happened today. He stared at the more than a dozen silver needles in his abdomen, not daring to move.

The police arrived quickly, and after learning the situation from Nan Yan and Yu Kai’an, they took away those men.

“Let’s go.”

“Uh… what about the silver needles in my body?” Yu Kai’an pointed to his abdomen with a worried expression. “Will I dislodge them while walking?”

He didn’t dare to move recklessly. “It’s okay, just walk at your normal pace.”

“Okay…”

Soon, the two of them returned to the car. Bai Chen had already fastened his seatbelt and was waiting in the passenger seat for Nan Yan to drive.

In the car, Yu Kai’an remembered to ask Nan Yan for her phone and called his family to let them know he was safe. He knew they wouldn’t be returning so soon, so he didn’t mention his injuries to avoid worrying them. He just assured them that he was fine.

Upon receiving their son’s call, Yu Huiwen and Luo Xiaojun finally felt relieved. They could now stay in the resort and continue enjoying their vacation without constant worry.

On the way back, they drove even faster than when they had come, taking only three hours compared to the initial three and a half hours. They parked the car directly in the hospital’s parking lot, and while heading upstairs, Nan Yan and Tao Qingming had already arranged for an operating room.

Yu Kai’an was almost overwhelmed by what he had heard.

What kind of background did his father’s student have to know the Director Tao so well and have such a close relationship with her?

It wasn’t until he was pushed into the operating room and undergoing pre-operative anesthesia that his worldview collapsed when he saw Nan Yan, dressed in surgical attire, wearing medical rubber gloves, holding a surgical scalpel, standing in front of the operating table.

“Are you really only eighteen years old?” he asked incredulously.

Nan Yan replied calmly, “Would you like to see my ID to confirm?”

Yu Kai’an: ‘ .

No, thanks!

He couldn’t help but feel that he was quite inadequate. He attended one of the top universities in China and was often considered a top student by others. But now, his self-assuredness and pride as a top student had been shattered.

“It’s a very minor surgery, no need to worry,” Nan Yan reassured him.

“Oh… thank you!”

Indeed, it was a minor surgery. After receiving local anesthesia, he felt Nan Yan making three incisions in his abdomen, followed by the use of robotic arms for minimally invasive surgery.

The entire process took less than half an hour.

Once the wound was sutured, Yu Kai’an was moved to a regular hospital room.

Nan Yan changed out of her surgical attire and went to check on Fu Yubai.

As she walked towards the hospital room, she briefly explained Fu Yubai’s identity to Bai Chen.

Bai Chen asked, “So, is this your third senior brother here? Do you also have a first senior brother and a second senior brother?”

“Yes, that’s right,” Nan Yan nodded. “But for now, I haven’t contacted them.”

She planned to inform her first and second senior brothers when they all went to Shennongjia together after her third senior brother had recovered.

At that time, she was Hua Shifang’s disciple, the fourth and the youngest. Since then, Master Hua had never taken in any more disciples. Master Hua had been highly impressed by her talent, saying that he had found the disciple he had been searching for over several decades, and he no longer needed to take on new apprentices.

However, she was impatient to graduate after learning about eighty percent of the teachings, which infuriated her master. For three years now, no matter how many times she called him, he had refused to speak with her.

Sigh…

Once she had resolved the current matters, she needed to go back and apologize to her master properly.

Seeing her change in expression and mood, Bai Chen knew she was lost in thought.

Reborn after death, she probably cared about things she hadn’t cared about before. Things she hadn’t understood in the past, she now understood.

Bai Chen reached out and gently rubbed her head, sighing, “Little Yanyan, it’s really wonderful-”

She was able to come back.

She didn’t have to be buried in that laboratory forever.

Nan Yan didn’t catch the emotional tone in his words, she just removed his hand from her head and used her fingers to smooth out her disheveled hair.

“Don’t mess with my hair!”

“Alright,” Bai Chen responded with an indulgent tone.

Once they entered the hospital room, Nan Yan had just called out “Third Senior Brother” when the phone rang….
