Lu Jiang felt a pang of heartache as he listened to Song Yu. He gazed at her tenderly and said, “Little Sixth, don’t worry. I’ll find magnolia-bark tomorrow. When the time comes, you’ll be able to sleep well tomorrow night.”
A faint smile lit up Song Yu’s pale, fragile face. She whispered softly, “Fourth Brother, I only didn’t sleep well last night. I’ll be fine.”
Lu Jiang smiled warmly.
Song Yu reached for the cup on the coffee table and took another sip of water. She turned to Qiao Nian and said, “Sister, I believe Auntie Cao intends to use me for something that will disappoint everyone. I want to follow Auntie Cao’s instructions.”
Song Yu’s statement left everyone in the room shocked. Even Lu Nian stood frozen in surprise.
“Perhaps we can catch a big fish.” Song Yu pressed her lips together and murmured lowly, “I hope this talk stays just among us few. That way, we can ensure the plan succeeds without a hitch.”
Upon learning Song Yu had entered Lu Zhu’s study,
Auntie Cao stealthily concealed herself in the shadows to spy on events. Soon enough, she spotted
Song Yu dashing from the study in tears, with Fourth Young Master chasing after her.
A smug curve formed on Auntie Cao’s lips before she slipped away.
Tears streaming down her face, Song Yu hurried back to her room. Right at the doorway, her sight blurred and she collapsed backward.
Lu Jiang, arriving just in time as Song Yu neared fainting, swiftly caught and steadied her. Gently, he eased the door open and laid her on the bed.
Song Yu gradually fluttered her eyes open. She’d merely passed out moments ago and now felt okay. “Fourth Brother, don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
Gripping Song Yu’s hand firmly, Lu Jiang whispered tenderly, “Yes, I won’t let anything happen to you.”
Song Yu flashed a sweet smile.
The following day, Old Master Qin administered acupuncture to the Madam President of Europe for a full six hours straight. Her complexion improved steadily, yet she drifted into sleep once the session ended.
Lina gazed at Shen Mei with deep concern. Just as she prepared to inquire about her mother’s awakening, Old Master Qin announced Shen Mei wouldn’t stir until the day after next. Lina quickly expressed her gratitude to Old Master Qin and remained at his side.
As Old Master Qin departed the villa, he shared laughs and chatter with Qiao Nian. Suddenly, he collapsed.
Qiao Nian rushed Old Master Qin to the hospital without delay. She breathed a sigh of relief later upon learning it was merely exhaustion that caused his faint.
Come morning the next day, Old Master Qin awoke gradually. The moment his eyes opened, Qiao Nian’s tear-streaked face met his gaze.
“Grandpa.” Qiao Nian stared at Old Master Qin with thrill, her voice thick with emotion.
“You’re awake. Are you feeling unwell?”
“No.” Old Master Qin shook his head with a smile, his eyes full of affection for Qiao Nian. “Nian Nian, I have something to share. Don’t feel sad.”
Qiao Nian blinked in mild shock, eyeing Old Master Qin curiously. “Grandpa, tell me.”
“Madam President probably can’t remember the kidnapping. She was hypnotized back then.” As Old Master Qin explained, he started to rise.
Qiao Nian swiftly propped a pillow behind Old Master Qin and assisted him upright. His words weighed heavily on her heart. “Grandpa, are you saying that… she was hypnotized like me when I was young?”
“Yes, indeed.”
Qiao Nian’s brows furrowed. “This…”
“Nian Nian, that person’s hypnosis skills are incredibly powerful. Besides me and your senior brothers and sisters, only one other I know can perform such hypnosis.” Noting Qiao Nian’s anxious look, Old
Master Qin stated plainly, “My junior brother and your senior uncle, Liu Yu.”
“Grandpa…”
“So if you find Liu Yu, you’ll be able to understand the situation back then.” Old Master Qin clasped Qiao Nian’s hand reassuringly and soothed her gently. “Actually, this can be considered good news, right?”
Qiao Nian smiled and nodded.
Qin Chuan continued watching over Old Master Qin. Qiao Nian headed to Lina’s location to await Madam President’s awakening. After all, her status was delicate, and this mattered to ties between the two nations.
