Chapter 123: Old Master An Is in Critical Condition

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Under Qin Lu’s dark and long eyelashes, he hid his clear emotions.

He reached out, his slightly cold fingertips lightly touching her cheek.

The smile on Nan Yan’s face froze, and her back couldn’t help but straighten. Even her breathing became much lighter.

“Brother?”

Don’t look at her like that!

The pressure was too much!

“Yes…” Qin Lu suppressed his emotions, bent down, leaned closer to her, and gently embraced her. “Yan Yan, you did well.”

Just now, he had heard the words of the villagers from the surveillance.

It was completely different from the nonchalant tone Nan Yan had used to narrate it earlier.

He could even imagine a thin girl, enduring humiliation in that cold and dirty

110111e.

For her to grow up, survive until the An family came to take her back, how difficult it must have been…

And yet, despite all that she had endured, there was no trace of darkness in her. She remained passionate and radiant.

What an incredible feat!

She truly was strong and remarkable.

He couldn’t help but feel even more fond of her.

This little one was truly endearing…

Nan Yan was dazed by Qin Lu’s gentle embrace.

What’s going on now?

Why was he taking this sentimental route instead of the overbearing CEO route when everything was fine?

Her heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably.

And it was getting faster and faster, getting out of her control.

As her emotions were on the verge of spiraling out of control, Nan Yan suddenly broke free from his embrace and stood up.

“Brother, do you want some fruit? I’ll get some for you.”

Qin Lu sat down, his expression returning to indifference. “Sure.”

Nan Yan rushed into the kitchen, pressing a hand against her heart.

Through her clothes, she could feel her heart pounding, making her thoughts chaotic.

After taking two deep breaths, she deadpanned to herself, “This monster!” Did he overestimate her self-control?

A man who fit her aesthetic preferences from head to toe, appearing before her every day. Did he truly think that she could maintain her composure, as if she were meditating in a temple?

Nan Yan wickedly thought, if he tried to subtly provoke her like this again, he shouldn’t blame her for for being disrespectful to him!

After calming down in the kitchen for a few minutes, Nan Yan washed some grapes, cut a slice of watermelon, and put a few strawberries on a plate before carrying it out.

“Brother, enjoy the

Nan Yan placed the fruit platter on the coffee table and gave Qin Lu a bright smile.

Qin Lu’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down a few times, and he softly responded, “Thank you.”

After some rescue efforts, Lu Lehua finally woke up.

She stared blankly at the ceiling above, not uttering a word.

“Mom, what happened to you? You were perfectly fine, why did you faint?”

An Mulin couldn’t understand. Lu Lehua had always been in good health and rarely even caught a cold.

What kind of shock could have made her faint like this?

Lu Lehua didn’t answer; she hadn’t yet detached herself from that sense of disillusionment.

An Mulin frowned and suddenly asked, “Did you read things online?”

“Mom, listen to me. Yao Yao isn’t that kind of person. Someone must be deliberately trying to frame and slander her to make her take the fall…”

“It’s her!” Lu Lehua interrupted him in distress. “I heard it with my own ears. It’s her. She called the Nan Hongyang family to Jin City and instigated them to trouble Nan Yan. She intentionally blew up this incident, all her doing!”

“For the past two years, she’s been sabotaging Nan Yan, making her continuously make mistakes, making us despise her more and more…”

“It’s all her… all her…”

“Sob, sob…”

Lu Lehua truly couldn’t accept it. Her carefully nurtured daughter had turned out to be such a malicious and cunning girl!

Accepting Nan Yan back was something she resisted.

Even because of An Muyao, she was afraid that bringing Nan Yan back would make An Muyao sad. She even considered not having her biological daughter anymore, just sticking with this one daughter.

She had never tried to understand Nan Yan, let alone care about her past life.

Today, hearing from the villagers about Nan Yan’s past life, even though she disliked Nan Yan and only held contempt and disgust for her, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.

But this trace of pity was overshadowed by what she saw in the second post exposing An Muyao. Looking at those people pointing fingers at An Muyao, she felt a heartache fearing that An Muyao would be hurt by these insults.

She was afraid that her daughter would be upset and unable to withstand these verbal attacks, so she hurriedly called to console her. But in the end, she learned the shattering truth.

How could she possibly accept this?

How could she bear this kind of blow?

An Mulin and An Yaoqing exchanged a glance, their expressions changing drastically.

“Did you hear it with your own ears? Did Yao Yao admit to all of this? Could there be a misunderstanding?”

“What misunderstanding!” Lu Lehua burst into tears, her expression filled with extreme pain. “She mistook me for Nan Yan, thinking it was Nan Yan mocking her on the phone. Then she angrily confessed everything to me! She exposed everything!”

“I never expected that beneath her dignified, elegant, obedient appearance, she harbored such malicious thoughts!”

“I’m such a failure…”

Lu Lehua had just woken up, and her mental state was very unstable. After saying these few sentences, she fell asleep again.

An Yaoqing and An Mulin thought she had fainted again and hurriedly called for a nurse.

After confirming that she had only fallen asleep, they finally relaxed.

An Yaoqing took out his phone, read the two posts again, and looked at the comments below, his expression changing several times.

He turned off the phone and instructed, “Mu Lin, investigate this, find out the truth, and figure out what’s really going on.”

“Understood.”

He was also eager to know the truth behind all this.

What was really happening?

Old Master An’s home.

Old Master An, who had been forbidden by Nan Yan from using the internet, took the opportunity while Elder Tian was out to grab his phone and see if those people were still insulting his precious granddaughter.

He intended to make a note of all those media outlets exposing his granddaughter and make them go bankrupt later.

As he opened the web page and saw the two posts trending, he clicked on them.

The first post made his face turn extremely ugly, and his breathing became somewhat irregular. If you looked closely, his hand holding the phone was trembling.

Suppressing his discomfort, he clicked on the second post.

But the impact from the second post was even greater than the first!

The granddaughter he had worked so hard to find was being bullied by this false granddaughter he had let into the family!

He wondered to himself, over the past eighteen years, he had treated An Muyao quite well.

For the first sixteen years, he had doted on her like a granddaughter, even more than his four grandsons.

After finding his real granddaughter, he hadn’t treated her unfairly either, considering their sixteen years of emotional connection.

Yet, she had treated his only biological granddaughter this way!

Old Master An felt his brain getting heavier and his heart more painful. He couldn’t catch his breath. Clutching his phone, he fell off the chair.

Not long after, Elder Tian returned and saw Old Master An collapsed on the floor. He rushed over.

“Old Master! ”

“Someone come quickly, Old Master has fainted!”
