After a moment of silence, Nan Yan confessed, “Medical skills.’

Having lost her family at a young age and lacking the warmth of kinship, Old Master An and An Xiran had filled that void for her. Nan Yan had always been the kind of person who reciprocated kindness from others, and she considered Old Master An and An Xiran as her own family members a long time ago.

So, when An Xiran asked her, she had no intention of hiding it from him.

An Xiran was surprised, “Is your master the one who taught you medical skills?”

“Yes.”

“If it’s convenient, Yanyan, when you have the time, could you bring your master home with you…”

An Xiran merely made a suggestion, and if Nan Yan disagreed, he wouldn’t insist. He just wanted to thank Nan Yan’s master in person for teaching her medical skills.

If it weren’t for Nan Yan’s medical abilities, Old Master An might not have survived to this day…

Nan Yan replied, “Alright, when I return to Jin City, I’ll ask if he’s willing.” “Okay, then you go ahead with your business. I will continue training them.”

After ending the call, Nan Yan put her phone back in her pocket, and Qin Lu naturally held her hand.

Before heading to the courtyard, Qin Lu drove to a mall to buy some gifts.

The first time he had gone empty-handed, the Second Master didn’t like him, and now, for the second visit, with the presence of her Elder Master, it wouldn’t be appropriate to go empty-handed either.

Nan Yan gave her opinion on the side, and soon they had bought the gifts. Only then did the two of them go to the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Hua Shifang and Sun Chan were playing chess.

As for Fu Yubai, he was in the kitchen bringing a pot of soup to the dining table.

With him present, they couldn’t let the two elderly people cook, so all the dishes on the table were made by him.

“It’s almost seven o’clock, why hasn’t Yanyan arrived yet?”

Sun Chan didn’t know how many times he had looked at the door, and he sounded a bit complaining.

Indeed, as soon as their little disciple returned, that annoying man managed to lure her away. Despite inviting her for a meal, they had been waiting for quite some time without her arrival.

“Senior Brother, if Yanyan brings that man over later, you must show the imposing aura of your Elder Master and keep him in check, understand?” “Otherwise, our little disciple might be seduced away by this annoying man!”

These words of disdain clearly indicated how much Sun Chan disliked Qin Lu. Hua Shifang harrumphed, “With me here, I’d like to see who dares to have any ideas about Yanyan.”

Fu Yubai watched the attitudes of the two elders and offered a silent prayer for Qin Lu.

Qin Lu’s pursuit of Yanyan would be a challenging and long journey!

Another ten minutes passed, and finally, the sound of a car parking outside could be heard.

Soon after, there was a knock on the door.

Fu Yubai went to open the door.

Unsurprisingly, he saw two people.

He lowered his voice and reminded, “Junior Sister, Master and Senior Uncle are getting impatient.”

Nan Yan nodded, “I know, Third Senior Brother.”

On the first day back, making her masters wait for her at dinner was indeed not ideal.

She would have to make it up to them later.

“Mr. Qin, just a friendly tip, trying to whisk Yanyan away will be quite challenging. Good luck.”

Fu Yubai expressed his moral support for Qin Lu.

Unfortunately, if he offered practical support and stood on Qin Lu’s side, he wouldn’t be able to face his master.

Qin Lu said, “Thank you.”

The three of them exchanged a few words at the door and quickly walked towards the courtyard.

Hua Shifang and Sun Chan continued their pretense of being angry and ignored Nan Yan while resuming their chess game.

Nan Yan walked over and said, “Elder Master, Second Master.”

The two old men finally looked up.

Hua Shifang said, “You’re here?”

Sun Chan added, “You remember to come?”

Seeing that the two old men seemed a bit upset, Nan Yan sincerely apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t come in time and kept both of you waiting.”

“Humph, don’t sweet-talk us.”

Sun Chan turned his head haughtily. Then he noticed Qin Lu standing to Nan Yan’s right and his expression froze.

“Your… your legs…”

Wasn’t he a wheelchair-bound cripple?

Why did he come this time with both legs seemingly fine?

Qin Lu replied warmly, “Thank you for your concern, Elder Sun. My leg injury has fully healed.”

Sun Chan replied expressionlessly, “Who’s concerned about you?”

He originally wanted to use his disability as a reason to have some self-awareness and not bother their obedient disciple.

Now that his only flaw was gone, what reason could he find?

Sun Chan looked at Qin Lu and found him even more displeasing.

Qin Lu, being disdained by someone, could only smile helplessly. After all, he was the master of this little girl, no matter how much they looked down on him, he had to endure it.

Then, with a respectful expression, he said to Hua Shifang, “Elder Hua, I’ve heard of your name for a long time, and today I finally have the honor of meeting you in person.”

Hua Shifang replied with a cold tone, “Hmm.”

He had no intention of showing any kindness to the man who wanted to take his disciple away.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Nan Yan intervened and said pleasingly, “Master, Second Master, look, he bought you gifts.”

Hua Shifang replied indifferently, “Put them aside for now. Yubai has already prepared dinner. Wash your hands and let’s eat first.”

“Since Mr. Qin is here as well, let’s have a meal together.”

His distant tone seemed to be more about trying to drive him away.

It was only for Nan Yan’s sake that he reluctantly allowed him to stay.

Nan Yan looked at Qin Lu and made a helpless expression, then obediently went to wash her hands.

It seemed that gaining the approval of the two masters for her brother was not easy.

“In that case, I’ll stay for dinner.” Qin Lu replied politely and gracefully, not getting angry at being disliked. He handled the situation with tact and pretended not to notice their disdain.

Once they sat at the dining table, the test officially began.

Hua Shifang and Sun Chan engaged in a conversation about herbs and medical techniques. Both Nan Yan and Fu Yubai were able to chime in, but Qin Lu was excluded.

To make matters worse, Hua Shifang and Sun Chan occasionally glanced at him, as if to convey that he, as someone completely ignorant of traditional Chinese medicine, was unworthy of their disciples.

Qin Lu remained calm and composed, eating his meal quietly and even helping to serve Nan Yan food.

Their natural and familiar interaction left Hua Shifang and Sun Chan feeling a bit frustrated.

It was too late; they realized too late that their little disciple had long been won over by this cunning fellow!

This discovery left the two old men without much appetite for their meal.

After finishing their dinner, Nan Yan and Fu Yubai cleared the dishes, while Hua Shifang sternly summoned Qin Lu to the living room.

“What is your relationship with Yanyan?”

“It’s the relationship that you, Elder Hua, perceive.”

Hua Shifang was taken aback by his response. He remained silent for a moment before speaking again, “Yanyan is still too young. My senior and I want to keep her with us for a few more years. At the earliest, we’ll consider letting her get married when she’s twenty-five.”

Qin Lu replied calmly, “Rest assured, Elder Hua, I can wait.”

Hua Shifang added, “You can wait, but if you dare to mistreat her without my consent, you’re dead.”

Qin Lu was speechless..
