Given the situation, Nan Yu could hardly refuse anymore.
She revealed a polite smile, "Dean Li, you helping me might not work out, but if you don’t mind just watching from the side..."
As soon as Li Chongbai heard this, his eyes brightened even more, and he interrupted, "I don’t mind at all, and I’m always available!"
After pondering for a moment, Nan Yu asked, "Dean Li, would it be too much trouble for you to come here every day at ten o’clock in the morning?"
Li Chongbai was overjoyed and quickly said, "Xiao Yu, that’s no problem at all. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Also, you don’t have to call me ’Dean’ in the future, it’s too impersonal. Just call me Uncle Li."
Nan Yu politely responded, "Uncle Li."
Li Chongbai continued, "Xiao Yu, how about we add each other as contacts? I also want to ask you how you treated the old lady’s headaches, and I’ll send you her past medical records as well."
Nan Yu smiled in agreement, "Uncle Li, I was actually hoping to ask for Grandma’s medical records too."
Once Li Chongbai added her as a contact, he happily pocketed his phone and then said to Chi Ying, "Old lady, I’ll go back and prepare a bit, so I won’t stay for dinner. I’ll come back tomorrow morning."
After saying this, he waved to Nan Yu, "Xiao Yu, see you tomorrow morning."
And like an excited child, he bounced out of the Huo Mansion.
Chi Ying, looking at her usually haughty friend become so amiable and approachable, felt it was as strange as seeing a ghost.
She shook her head slightly, then turned to see the wounds on Nan Yu’s hands and spoke with gravity, "Xiao Yu, you are injured now. Why not tell Old Li how to do it tomorrow, and let him do the acupuncture for me?"
Nan Yu thought for a while, then after a long pause, said, "Grandma, my right hand is fine, and I can do the acupuncture for you. Besides, apart from me, no one else can treat your illness right now."
At her words, Chi Ying felt a warmth in her heart, "Alright, I’ll do as you say, but if you feel too tired, just let Grandma know."
Checking the time and seeing that it was getting late, she said, "Xiao Yu, are you hungry? Grandma specially simmered some chicken soup for you. Have some to fill you up. I’ll have Xu Qi call Juanyan to hurry home, and when he arrives, we’ll start the meal."
Without delay, the housemaid brought over a bowl of steaming chicken soup to Nan Yu.
"Young Madam, your hand is inconvenient, let me feed you."
Nan Yu, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the favor, said, "No need, just place it on the table. I can do it myself."
Upon Chi Ying’s nod, the housemaid set it down in front of her.
Under Chi Ying’s expectant gaze, Nan Yu, feeling somewhat embarrassed, took a sip.
"Does it taste good?"
Nan Yu nodded vigorously, "It’s delicious, the best chicken soup I’ve ever had."
Chi Ying’s smile grew warm and her eyes curved, "Juanyan also likes the chicken soup I make the best. Have more."
Meanwhile, Xu Qi came in quickly from the outside holding a phone, approaching Chi Ying.
"Old lady, the young master has something to say to you."
Taking the phone, Chi Ying asked, "Juanyan, how much longer until you return?"
From the other end came a cool voice.
"Grandma, I have to travel to City C for three days, so I won’t be coming back."
On hearing this, Chi Ying glared furiously, "Don’t lie to me, I’ve already asked Xia Xing, and you don’t have any business trips to City C this week!"
The voice remained calm, "Grandma, it’s not a business trip, I just need to go find someone."
Chi Ying froze, having a suspicion of what it meant, and blurted out with accusation, "Are you going to find that woman again?"
Suddenly, realizing she had said something inappropriate in front of Nan Yu, who was sipping her soup with her head down and showing no expression, Chi Ying quickly added, "Huo Juanyan, you are not allowed to go, get back here right now!"
To her surprise, Huo Juanyan simply said, "Grandma, I’ve found out she is currently in City C, and I have to go find her. I’m about to board the plane, and we will talk about everything else when I’m back."
The next second, the call was disconnected.
