Chapter 312: A Little Heartache for Big Brother, Hm?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Did Young Master buy the wrong books?

Among the younger generation of the Qin family, there didn’t seem to be any age-appropriate children who would want to read fairy tales!

Qin Lu opened the car door and got in, saying calmly, “Let’s go home.”

“Of course, Young Master!”

When Qin Lu returned home, Nan Yan had just finished a phone call with Yun Jingshan.

Nan Yan caught sight of him and, involuntarily recalling the kiss from last night that had kept her awake, immediately averted her gaze, turned her head away, and ignored him.

Qin Lu:

It seemed his morning intuition was correct.

The little one was indeed in a bad mood with him.

He smiled silently, stood in front of Nan Yan, placed his hand on top of her head, and gently rubbed it. “Yanyan, where did I make you angry, dear?”

Nan Yan gave him a chilly glance and pushed his hand away. “Don’t rub my head!”

She had never liked him rubbing her head before, and now that she was mad at him, she definitely wouldn’t let him do it.

Qin Lu smoothly sat down beside her, his fingers pinching her chin to turn her face towards him. He used a seductive tone, “Little one, you need to tell me why you’re upset so that big brother can comfort you.”

Nan Yan furrowed her brows slightly; she wasn’t comfortable with this posture. However, her mind was distracted by his enchanting voice, making her lose focus for a moment.

Fortunately, she hadn’t completely lost her rationality under his temptation. She lowered her eyes and said coolly, “It’s nothing, I just don’t want to talk to you.”

“Yanyan, let’s talk it out. It’s frustrating for big brother when you’re upset with no reason,” Qin Lu released her chin, and with a nonchalant movement of his long and well-defined fingers, he lightly brushed her forehead. “Because I was distracted thinking about why you were angry, I couldn’t focus on work today. A task that should have taken three hours to complete ended up taking more than four.’

“Have some sympathy for your big brother, hmm?”

Nan Yan:

Okay, she did seem a bit unreasonable now.

After all, he had ‘stolen a kiss’ from her yesterday in a state where she was unaware of it. Clearly, he was the one who had done something wrong. And now he was righteously accusing her of not showing sympathy. This was a real reversal, and quite cheeky.

“I’m not angry anymore,” Nan Yan flashed a smile at Qin Lu. “Big brother!”

Qin Lu:

It seemed the little one was building some distance between them.

She wouldn’t tell him anything when something was bothering her, deliberately keeping him in the dark.

He felt a bit disheartened.

“Yesterday, you had a nightmare. On my way back today, I bought you two fairy tale books. You can read a few stories before bedtime, and maybe you won’t have nightmares anymore.”

Qin Lu felt sorry for the little girl who didn’t have a proper childhood and planned to gradually make it up to her.

Nan Yan looked somewhat speechless as she glanced at the two fairy tale books that Qin Lu had placed on her lap. She really wanted to ask him if he was serious.

How old did he think she was? Why was he buying her these kinds of books?

Even if she didn’t consider her psychological age, her physical age was already eighteen. Wasn’t it too late for her to be reading such childish things?

“In a few days, big brother will have someone find you a few original edition books from overseas. Many translations lose the original flavor of the text.”

Nan Yan looked at him with resistance in her eyes. “Don’t bother, these two books are fine.

Who wanted to read something so childish?

If these two books weren’t specially bought for her by Qin Lu, she would have thrown them away!

Not long after, they met up with Yun Jingshan, and soon they were on a plane DaCK to Jincneng.

Bored on the plane, Nan Yan opened one of the fairy tale books that Qin Lu had bought for her.

To her surprise, she found herself engrossed in the stories and lost track of time.

By the time the plane was about to land, she had already read a quarter of one of the books.

Qin Lu had glanced at her many times during the flight and saw that she enjoyed it, so he didn’t take her earlier rejection seriously.

After disembarking from the plane, he sent a message to his subordinates abroad, asking them to find more fairy tale books for his little friend to read.

Outside the airport, Nan Yan was holding one of the fairy tale books in her arms as she looked at Qin Lu. “Big brother, I need to go to the First Hospital first. If you have things to do, you don’t need to accompany me.”

Qin Lu nodded. “Alright, Yanyan. After you come back from the hospital, I’ll take you to meet some people who are waiting for your decisions.”

Nan Yan raised an eyebrow. “Who are these people?”

“The Fu family’s people.”

A glint of fierceness flashed in Nan Yan’s eyes.

It seemed that the Fu family was still harboring intentions of harming her Third Senior Brother.

She suppressed the anger in her eyes and smiled at Qin Lu. “I understand, big brother. See you tonight.”

At the airport, Nan Yan and Qin Lu went their separate ways.

Nan Yan and Yun Jingshan took a taxi to the First Hospital.

At the hospital ward, Yun Jingshan said, “Dr. Nan, I’ll go check on my mother first. If you need anything, you can contact me.”

Nan Yan nodded. “Sure, I’ll also go see Old Professor Yun later.”

In Fu Yubai’s hospital room, Fu Linfeng sat by the bedside. He fed Fu Yubai water while asking, “Big brother, you look much better these past few days. Do you feel any improvement in your health?”

“Much better,” Fu Yubai’s voice was still weak, but his spirits were surprisingly good.

Ever since he found out that Dr. Nan was his junior sister Nan Yan, his excitement had also ignited a new will to live. He wanted to understand why his junior sister had become the way she was now!

“Dr. Nan’s medicine is indeed effective. If you keep drinking it for a few more days and can accept treatment, you’ll definitely get better!”

Fu Linfeng fed him another spoonful of water and then couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity, “Big brother, how did Dr. Nan become your junior sister? Just tell me, okay? Don’t make me guess so hard!”

“Can she call me ‘big brother’ in the future since she looks younger than me?

Can I make her call me that?”

Fu Yubai looked at him calmly.” She’s older than you.’

He didn’t know why Nan Yan had turned eighteen again, but her real age was already twenty-five, only three years younger than him.

Fu Linfeng was 23 now, five years younger than him.

It was impossible for Little Junior Sister to call him brother.

Even if he was older than Little Junior Sister, it was still impossible.

“She’s older than me?” Fu Linfeng widened his eyes. ” Don’t be ridiculous. Doctor Nan looks like she’s only eighteen or nineteen years old. She’s at most twenty years old. How can she be older than me?”

“What are you guys talking about?”

The door opened and Nan Yan walked in.

“Nan…Doctor Nan…Hehe, hehe, I didn’t say anything!”

Fu Linfeng didn’t wait for Fu Yubai to say anything and cowered first.

He dared to talk to Fu Yubai about Nan Yan behind her back.

He wouldn’t dare to do it face to face.

For some reason, he always felt that he was trembling in fear when facing Nan

Yan!

“Little Junior Sister.” Fu Yubai smiled warmly and greeted Nan Yan.

“Looks like you’re in good shape.” Nan Yan didn’t dwell on Fu Linfeng’s previous words. She walked straight to the bedside, took Fu Yubai’s hand, and began to check his pulse.

Fu Yubai smelled the lingering strong scent of herbs on her and instinctively asked, “Junior sister, did you go to see our master?”

“Hmm?” Nan Yan paused for a moment, then realized and explained, “No, I went to the Imperial Capital and met with my uncle-master.”

“Uncle-master Sun Chan?”
