Chapter 154: Foul Play with This Move!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Nan Yan finished checking Lin Zhiyan’s pulse and was reasonably satisfied with the speed of her recovery.

“How have you been feeling lately?” she asked.

“Pretty good,” Lin Zhiyan said excitedly, looking at Nan Yan. “Yan Yan, you’re amazing! I’ve never felt so relaxed before. The discomfort in my chest has reduced significantly, and even my sleep and appetite have improved a lot!”

Nan Yan gently rubbed her head and smiled, “Keep taking your medicine and resting well. In another two months, you’ll be able to engage in some physical exercises just like an ordinary person.”

Lin Zhiyan’s body was quite weak. Even if her illness was cured, her physical condition wouldn’t improve solely through medication. She needed to exercise.

“Really?” Lin Zhiyan’s eyes widened cutely. The news seemed too good to be true, leaving her momentarily in disbelief.

“Don’t you trust me?”

“No, no!” Lin Zhiyan hurriedly shook her head. “Yan Yan, I’m just… so surprised…”

She had never imagined that hope could be placed within her grasp like this. She hadn’t thought that one day she would be able to shed her feeble body and become normal again. And all of this was thanks to Nan Yan!

“Take good care of yourself, use the internet less, focus on your creative work. Once your abilities improve, I’ll recommend you to the Art Association.” Nan Yan’s tone was nonchalant, as if it was nothing significant.

But when the words ‘Art Association’ left her mouth, Lin Zhiyan was dumbstruck.

“Y-Yan… Yan Yan… Could it be that you’re a member ot the Art Association?”

The Art Association was an esteemed organization for artists. Only true artistic geniuses could join, and its members included renowned masters. As an art enthusiast, Lin Zhiyan naturally wished to become a part of it. However, she knew that the threshold to enter was extremely high, possibly out of her reach in her lifetime.

Yet, here was Nan Yan, so casually telling her that she could recommend her for the Art Association!

It was worth noting that only senior members had the privilege to make such recommendations!

“Well, not exactly, but I know an old man there. I’ll just mention it to him.”

Suddenly, the president of a certain Art Association sneezed so forcefully that it startled himself.

He rubbed his nose and, after a moment of irritation, refocused on the painting in front of him. He muttered in annoyance:

“You little brat, where have you disappeared to? You haven’t visited me in so long. If I see you next time, I’ll spank your butt!”

Lin Zhiyan nodded with determination. She would work hard to get into the Art Association!

Feeling her phone vibrate in her pocket, Nan Yan’s gaze turned icy.

She casually patted Lin Zhiyan’s shoulder and said, “Take care of yourself. I’m heading back.”

Lin Zhiyan quickly stood up, “Let me see you out.”

As they were descending the stairs, they coincidentally met that especially annoying old lady from the Lin family.

Initially, Lin’s grandmother wanted to display her authority, but upon seeing Nan Yan coming down, her expression changed abruptly. She quickly turned and hurried away.

Nan Yan watched the old lady’s hurried departure and nonchalantly asked,

“During this time, has your grandmother caused you any trouble?”

“She’s visited a few times, but I’m not afraid of her anymore. Although I have to show her respect due to seniority, I can choose to ignore her.”

Lin Zhiyan couldn’t muster any favorable feelings towards her grandmother. She had been bullied too severely in the past, causing her to tremble like a mouse facing a cat.

Now, she treated her like air. Whenever her grandmother visited, she would lock her door and hide in her room. No interaction meant no trouble.

“People like her are submissive when met with resistance. The more you fear her, the more she’ll take advantage of you.”

Nan Yan pinched Lin Zhiyan’s fair cheek, playfully smirking, “You’d better be more assertive. If you want to be my friend, you can’t be weak.”

Lin Zhiyan’s ears turned visibly red.

This move, it’s a foul play!

Not wanting to tease her further, Nan Yan chuckled softly, waved at her, and left Lin’s house.

After leaving Lin’s residence, Nan Yan finally took out her phone, which had vibrated dozens of times.

Seeing the incoming call display, a mocking glint appeared in her eyes. She answered the call in a nonchalant manner.

“Mr. An, what’s the matter?”

“Nan Yan, what are you doing? Why didn’t you answer the calls?”

An Yaoqing couldn’t help but sound angry.

He had called her more than twenty times in the past half hour. Even Lu Lehua had tried reaching her several times. And yet, she hadn’t answered a single call.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was in front of Mr. and Mrs. Yin, he would have lost his temper already.

With a faint smile playing on her lips, Nan Yan kicked a small stone on the ground and asked mockingly, “I’m busy. Why is Mr. An looking me?”

“Return to the An family right now!” An Yaoqing took a deep breath. “I have something important to discuss with you!”

“I don’t seem to have much to talk to you about,” Nan Yan replied, showing no intention of giving An Yaoqing any face.

“Nan Yan, I’m not here to negotiate with you; I’m ordering you. You must come back!” An Yaoqing’s voice was close to grinding his teeth. “Don’t think that Grandpa pampers you, so you can act recklessly. Grandpa isn’t in good health, so you better not make me go find him.”

“If you make him angry, I’ll see who will protect you then.” He refused to believe that he couldn’t control a young girl.

“Mr. An, you’re really pushing it.”

To use Grandpa to threaten her, he truly lacked humanity.

A cold glint flashed in Nan Yan’s eyes. “Since you want to see me, I’ll meet with you. Just don’t regret it afterward.”

After saying this coldly, she hung up without waiting for An Yaoqing’s response.

Afterward, she called a rideshare and headed back to the An family’s residence.

Although An Yaoqing was infuriated by Nan Yan’s attitude, at least she agreed to come back.

Once she stepped into the An family’s territory, he could exert control over her!

He let out a sigh of relief and, adopting a somewhat ingratiating tone, he said to Mr. Yin, “Mr. Yin, don’t worry. Once Nan Yan is back, I’ll make sure she apologizes for her offense. She won’t be allowed to attend school anymore.”

“Very well,” Mr. Yin responded haughtily. “Once she drops the lawsuit, I’ll transfer the 50 million investment to your account tomorrow.”

Half an hour later, a taxi stopped outside the An family’s gate.

The security guard saw Nan Yan getting out of the taxi and quickly informed An Yaoqing.

An Yaoqing respectfully bowed and served Mr. and Mrs. Yin a cup of tea, saying, “Mr. Yin, Mrs. Yin, Nan Yan has returned. I will have her apologize for offending you.”

“Alright.”

The impatient expressions on Mr. and Mrs. Yin’s faces finally eased slightly.

With her school uniform’s pockets casually tucked in, Nan Yan entered the house with her long and slender legs.

Her gaze swept across the living room, and her eyes were filled with a stronger sense of mockery.

An Yaoqing angrily slammed a teacup on the table and shouted, “Nan Yan, you have quite the audacity. You dare to offend Mr. Yin and Mrs. Yin.. Now come here and apologize to them!”
