The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 36: Learning Opportunities

Ye Chengdong, trembling, walked out of the hotel, his legs shaking uncontrollably.

He frantically wiped the heavy sweat from his forehead, got into the car, leaned back in his seat, and finally dared to take deep breaths.

In his mind, he thought about the events of the night. He gritted his teeth and called his personal secretary.

"Check for me, everyone who went to the second floor laboratory department between ten and eleven the day before yesterday."

The secretary, still in a haze of sleep, mumbled, "Director, should I check the doctors who went there too?"

Ye Chengdong yelled, "Check everyone, even if a dog went in, find out whose dog it was!"

The secretary woke up with a start and hurriedly responded, "Yes, Director."

Nan Yu safely returned to the mansion, and saw the previously pitch-dark hall now as bright as daylight.

She paused for a few seconds before slowly walking in.

As she entered, she heard Chi Ying’s voice.

"Xiao Yu, where have you been so late at night?"

Nan Yu looked up to see Chi Ying sitting on the sofa, her face filled with anxiety and concern.

She quickly put on a pleasing smile and approached Chi Ying.

"Grandma, my hand was hurting so much I couldn’t sleep, and I didn’t want to disturb anyone, so I went out for a walk to ease the pain a bit."

Upon hearing this, Chi Ying, even more heartbroken, pulled her close.

"Xu Qi, bring me the pain relief cream Old Li left. I’ll apply it on Xiao Yu."

Xu Qi immediately brought over the cream.

Chi Ying held her hand carefully, delicately unwrapping the gauze, then gently applying the cream to her hand.

As she applied it, she said, "Xiao Yu, if you feel pain, tell grandma, and I will apply it more gently."

Nan Yu, looking at her grandmother’s white hair, wearing reading glasses, and carefully applying the cream, felt a bittersweet emotion rising in her heart.

Her voice hoarse, she said, "It doesn’t hurt, not at all."

After Chi Ying finished applying the cream, she looked at Nan Yu again.

"Xiao Yu, I couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, so I wanted to see if you were sleeping well. When I found you were not in your room, I was so scared. I thought something had happened to you and immediately asked people to look for you."

"Thankfully, you’re all right and came back safe. Next time, if you want to go out at night, have someone accompany you; don’t go out alone again."

Guilt flashed in Nan Yu’s eyes, "Grandma, I’m sorry for making you worry."

Chi Ying stroked her head, smiling tenderly at her, "It’s okay. It’s normal for you to feel uncomfortable since it’s your first time staying here. After you get used to it, it will get easier."

"You need to take care of your health now. Go up and sleep. If you feel uncomfortable, call the nurse to take care of it."

Nan Yu nodded gently, "Okay, Grandma."

The next day, at nine in the morning.

Li Chongbai couldn’t wait to get to the Huo Mansion.

He held a bunch of bright, fresh flowers in his arms, his face beaming with a smile, his eyes filled with anticipation.

When he saw Chi Ying coming downstairs, he quickly said, "Is Xiao Yu awake yet?"

"Xiao Yu will be down in a moment." Surprised by the flowers he had specially prepared, Chi Ying asked, "Old Li, did you go back early last night just to prepare this?"

Li Chongbai nodded, pointing to the bag next to him, "Not just flowers, I have also prepared this. Xiao Yu gave me such a rare learning opportunity; how could I come empty-handed?"

Chi Ying, curious about the bag, was about to ask.

Li Chongbai suddenly stood up, stuffed the flowers into Nan Yu’s arms as she came downstairs, then went back to open the bag and took out a red banner.

Under Chi Ying’s puzzled gaze, he unfurled the banner with a beaming smile, revealing the words inside.

[I am extremely grateful to the Young Madam for this learning opportunity!]
