Chapter 100: To Conceal
Ning Chen nodded.
Guan Yue looked as if he had seen a ghost. “Don’t tell me that Xiao Yu uses the chat tool. Xiao Yu’s IQ is only equivalent to that of a kindergarten child. Out of the Five Little Ones, only the Genius Girl did not appear. Ning Chen, what do you mean?”
Ning Chen chuckled. “Didn’t you already guess it? Xiao Yu is the Genius Girl.”
He looked at Guan Yue calmly.
It felt nice seeing a close friend, a buddy of his going through the same shock and surprise he once did.
Guan Yue’s hands flailed around as he stared at the unconscious Qin Yu with widened eyes. He muttered, “What a crazy world this is. The two of you are a perfect match. One of you pretends to be blind, while the other pretends to be dumb. You have kept us in the dark. Amazing acting skills, I have to say.”
He looked at Ning Chen. “I could never guess Xiao Yu was playing dumb. Ning Chen, how did you find out?”
Ning Chen pressed his fist against his lips and coughed lightly. “You don’t have to feel defeated. I found out through the fragrant ball given to Genius Girl.”
“Fragrant ball? Why would she want that?”Guan Yue was puzzled, while Chu Nan looked expectantly at Ning Chen.
Ning Chen glanced at Qin Yu beside him and said gently, “Because she wants the man beside her to fall dead asleep every night so she’d be safe.”
Cough! Cough!
Guan Yue choked on his own saliva.
Chu Nan could not help but turned his face away. He thought that something was not right and said seriously, “Then you –”
“No!” Ning Chen interrupted Chu Nan’s question.
Chu Nan’s expression softened slightly.
“But she’s already my lawful wife,” Ning Chen said fearlessly as he looked at Chu Nan. He did not do anything to Xiao Yu, but she was his wife. No one had the right to interfere with their marriage.
Chu Nan thought for a moment and understood. “She doesn’t know your true identity?”
Ning Chen nodded. “I’ll wait for her to find out on her own.”
Chu Nan had nothing else to say.
He took a glance at his little niece, who was sleeping peacefully on the hospital bed and felt a sense of relief.
Guan Yue’s reaction was a tad slower. He was still immersed in the fact that Qin Yu had Ning Chen fast asleep every night and missed some of the details. All he heard was Ning Chen telling them that Qin Yu had yet to realize Ning Chen’s identity.
This made him extremely excited. “Ning Chen, you’re evil! Aren’t you watching Xiao Yu playing dumb every single day?”
Ning Chen did not mind. “I admire her acting.”
“Tsk! How dare you show off your wonderful marriage.”Guan Yue sighed.
Ning Chen set down the medical report and asked Guan Yue, “When will Chang An and Chang Le arrive?”
Guan Yue’s eyes lit up. “You’ve found a way to treat Xiao Yu’s illness? Was she poisoned?”
Ning Chen nodded. “Yes, I need an assistant. When Chang An and Chang Le arrive, we’ll begin the detoxification.”
Chu nan asked with concern, “Is it serious? Will there be any side effects?”
Ning Chen moved his body. “Don’t worry. Although it’s a little annoying, she’ll be fine. Guan Yue, investigate those people thoroughly! Don’t let any of them go! Have the Four Little Ones closely monitor everyone’s movements in the Shi family. Don’t let anyone, not even the drivers and servants, out of your sight!”
A murderous aura began shrouding Ning Chen.
Chu Nan could not help but secretly nod his head.
“Don’t worry. Even the Shi family’s pet dog will be kept under tight surveillance. They don’t know you’re the doctor, right? Tears welled up in Ah Nan’s eyes as she begged me to get the Brother Doctor to see their boss. As long as their boss is cured, Glory World is willing to give up ten years of dividends.” Guan Yue laughed so hard one could hardly see his eyes.
Chu Nan asked hesitantly, “The Glory World You’re talking about, is it Xiao Yu’s organization?”
Guan Yue nodded. “Yes, there are four more brats, the same age as Xiao Yu. Very smart people they are and they share an amazing relationship together. We started working together a few years ago, but we didn’t know each other’s identities then. We only started meeting a few months ago.”
He glanced at Ning Chen. “But the last time we met, Ning Chen and Xiao Yu weren’t present, so they didn’t know that the doctor was actually Ning Chen. We also didn’t know that Glory World’s leader, the Genius Girl, was Qin Yu. Ning Chen, aren’t you going to reveal yourself to the Four Little Ones?”
Ning Chen nodded. “Isn’t it fun?”
Guan Yue nodded too. “It’s fun. You’re too good at it.”
Ning Chen looked at Qin Yu, his eyes full of tenderness: “I would like to see Xiao Yu’s reaction.”
