Li Chongbai smiled benignantly.
"Xiao Yu, since it’s your first time here, I was worried you might not be accustomed to it, so I waited here specially for you. This will also make it convenient to introduce Vice Chairman Gu to you."
The people inside, upon hearing this statement, instantly showed expressions of disdain.
"I thought the Ghost Doctor had come. That was a needless excitement."
"It turns out to be Old Li’s niece, looking so pretty. I bet she doesn’t know medical skills, probably just a fan of the Ghost Doctor."
As Li Chongbai walked to the door, having heard what they said, a look of indignation appeared on his face, and he was about to explain.
However, Nan Yu grabbed Li Chongbai’s hand and shook her head, "Uncle Li, today I just wanted to meet the Vice Chairman."
Li Chongbai understood Nan Yu’s intentions; she didn’t want to stir unnecessary trouble and deliberately stopped him from explaining.
He sighed, struggling to agree, "Alright."
Song Yingqing followed behind Nan Yu, and also heard what the group had said. She glared fiercely at them.
Then, she moved closer to Nan Yu and asked quietly.
"Xiao Yu, who are they calling ’Ghost Doctor’? That’s not..."
You.
Before the last word could be spoken, Nan Yu interrupted her.
"Yingqing, today I brought you here to help me observe someone."
Song Yingqing tilted her head to look at Nan Yu, recalling what Xiao Yu had mentioned in the car, that she was afraid of recognizing the wrong person and specially asked her to come to verify.
She lowered her voice to a level audible only to them and said, "Don’t worry, I have memorized the person from the photo. I’ll watch carefully to make sure she is the sister you are looking for."
Nan Yu nodded slightly and pulled up the electronic invitation, allowing the doorman to check it.
Upon seeing this, Li Chongbai asked confused, "Xiao Yu, didn’t I give you an invitation? Why didn’t you bring it?"
Nan Yu explained, "I accidentally damaged that one. Luckily, I have a friend who couldn’t make it, so she gave me her invitation to attend in her place."
Hearing this, Li Chongbai’s face showed a frustrated expression, "You should have told me sooner, I could have gotten you another."
Nan Yu chuckled, "Uncle Li, don’t worry about it, as long as I can get in."
After they entered, Li Chongbai patted Nan Yu’s shoulder, "Xiao Yu, you and your friend make yourselves comfortable, eat whatever you like. I need to attend a meeting upstairs. When I come down, I’ll introduce you to Vice Chairman Gu."
Nan Yu nodded, "Okay, Uncle Li, go ahead with your work."
Li Chongbai went upstairs, and Song Yingqing picked up two plates from the side, handing one to Nan Yu.
Then, she grabbed a piece of sweet osmanthus cake, "Xiao Yu, have something to eat first, fill your stomach so you’ll have the energy to work later."
Watching her readiness for a confrontation, Nan Yu couldn’t help but laugh and cry, "Yingqing, we are here to observe someone, not to cause trouble."
Song Yingqing looked surprised, "If that Vice Chairman is really your sister, aren’t you going to confront her?"
Nan Yu replied calmly, "I just want to ask her about the truth of that year."
Her gaze shifted towards the far distance, her eyes shimmering with a dim light.
"When Master died, she was the only one by his side. I want to ask her what exactly happened to Master. I don’t believe that he died suddenly from a heart attack."
Song Yingqing furrowed her brows, "I remember you told me that before you left for City C, you had checked Master’s pulse and he was in very good health, with not a single ailment. Yet five days after you left for City C, he suddenly died of a heart attack."
"And overnight, his funeral was hastily conducted. By the time you rushed back, your sister had disappeared and no further news of her could be found. The truth of that year was just buried like that."
