"Feeling unwell?" An Yiqing carefully mulled over these words, then offered a cool smile, "That’s perfect, let me, the itinerant doctor, take a careful look at Old Master Qin." Saying this, she lifted her feet and moved toward Qin Han with a pace that was light yet unfaltering in speed.
Seeing An Yiqing approaching, Qin Han’s heart skipped a beat, damn! How could he forget that An Yiqing had medical arts!
If she were to encounter Qin Dingshan now, all their plans would be ruined!
Qin Han could no longer care about etiquette, he stretched out his long arm, and stopped An Yiqing who was about to pass by in front of him.
"Miss An, it’s rather inappropriate for you to wander around the Qin Family home uninvited. We’re grateful for Miss An’s concern, but my grandfather got a shock during the New Year, and his mental state has been quite poor recently. He often hurts others and himself. If Grandfather were to accidentally injure Miss An, it would likely cause a rift between the An and Qin Families," Qin Han’s eyes stared intensely at An Yiqing, trying to discern her emotions.
An Yiqing raised her limpid eyes and gave Qin Han a calm and clear glance. Those crystal-clear black eyes showed no joy or anger, no sorrow or happiness, not even a trace of doubt.
Seeing An Yiqing made Qin Dingshan feel increasingly uncertain, and he couldn’t help but feel extremely dissatisfied with the slow pace of Tutian Xiaoquan and Huang Yi’s actions.
"Young Master Qin, please step aside!" An Yiqing said with a cold laugh.
Qin Han did not move, but just watched her silently.
For a moment, the two of them stood facing each other, locked in a cold standoff.
After a long while, An Yiqing diverted her gaze and glanced at the large clock placed in the corner.
Hmm, it was past eight o’clock, it would be worrisome for Ah Lin if she were any later going back.
Looking at Qin Han in front of her, who was like a log, An Yiqing frowned with displeasure and shouted loudly, "Ah Feng, keep a good watch on Young Master Qin for me!"
The named An Zhifeng immediately stepped forward with agile hands and feet, twisted Qin Han around, and forcefully pressed him down onto the sofa.
"Young Master Qin, please wait a moment. Once the Miss finishes talking with Old Master Qin, I’ll let you go myself," An Zhifeng declared with head held high, pressing down on Qin Han with his hands.
Qin Han struggled with all his might for a few moments, but An Zhifeng’s hands were like thousand-pound weights, immobilizing him so completely that he couldn’t even budge.
"Miss An, this is the Qin family estate; your behavior is simply out of line! If word gets out that Miss An barged into someone’s home uninvited, where would you have Commander An put his face?" Qin Han bellowed loudly.
"Young Master Qin needn’t worry himself. If anyone outside has any complaints, they can come to me directly. However, I must settle the account with Patriarch Qin for the attempted assassination of my family member tonight—once and for all!"
As An Yiqing spoke with a cold voice, she slowly walked through the hall and headed toward the other rooms.
Ultimately, she found Qin Dingshan in the dining room.
Looking at the old man sitting in the chair and scooping rice into his mouth, An Yiqing’s brows raised involuntarily, a flicker of interest in her eyes.
This Qin Dingshan’s ability to feign madness was indeed exceptional! It was the first time she had learned that even a madman could issue a bounty.
An Yiqing smiled meaningfully and slowly paced until she stood before Qin Dingshan, her piercing eyes fixed on him as if they could see right through someone’s heart.
Under the scrutiny of those sharp eyes, Qin Dingshan, who was pretending to be a fool, felt his heart rate quicken and his hands begin to tremble involuntarily. This was the first time he had faced An Yiqing alone, without anyone else present. He hadn’t expected that this girl of only twenty would have such an imposing presence, enough to make even an experienced elder like him feel somewhat intimidated.
