‘Why?”

“It’s too complicated,” Nan Yan explained. “If it were just one or two people, it might be manageable. But my enemies include not only ruthless individuals but also numerous covert forces.”

“Besides, we’re currently in a sensitive period. It’s best not to provoke them further for now, or the situation might become even more complex.”

Nan Yan wasn’t someone who enjoyed killing; otherwise, those who had troubled her in the past would probably all be gone by now. Unless provoked and threatened directly, she preferred to avoid unnecessary bloodshed as much as possible.

She feared that indulging too much in violence would lead her astray, becoming lost in the thrill of bloodshed. She didn’t want to become a murderous maniac.

Sun Chan wasn’t too pleased. “So we’ll just wait for them to come looking for you?”

“No, those people don’t even know I’m still alive. And the ones causing trouble this time are not the same group,” Nan Yan explained.

“Let me deal with these matters first. The rest can wait.

Nan Yan could still control her temper. She knew she had more urgent tasks at hand, like rescuing Shen Junqing and Bai Chen.

Thinking about this, Nan Yan said to Hua Shifang, “Master, in a few days, will you accompany me to the M country to check on my two friends?”

“Sure,” Hua Shifang nodded in agreement.

After checking on Fu Yubai’s condition and spending some time chatting with the two elders in the ward, Nan Yan stood up. “I’ll go see Grandpa now.”

“Go ahead.”

Today, Grandpa An’s condition was much better than yesterday. With An Zhici and An Siting taking care of him, their expressions changed as Nan Yan entered the room, each showing their own reaction.

“Yanyan, you’re here,” Grandpa An exclaimed happily as soon as he saw Nan Yan, ignoring the complicated expressions of his two grandsons.

This favoritism and differential treatment shouldn’t be so obvious!

They were also his grandsons, sincerely caring for him, so why didn’t they deserve a smile? The moment Nan Yan arrived, his expression changed immediately!

Nan Yan completely ignored them as if they were invisible, not even sparing them a glance as she walked directly to Grandpa An’s bedside.

“How are you feeling?” she asked.

“Much better,” Grandpa An looked at her eagerly. “Yanyan, are you upset with Grandpa? You haven’t visited all day.”

He had been eagerly waiting all day, getting excited every time someone entered, thinking it was Nan Yan coming to see him. But each time, it was someone else. If Nan Yan hadn’t come now, he probably would have called her tomorrow.

“No, I’m not upset with you,” Nan Yan replied calmly. “I just overslept and missed the time to come see you.”

Nan Yan didn’t mention Fu Yubai’s injury. She didn’t want Grandpa An to worry about anything else. Anything she shouldn’t tell him, she wouldn’t.

“You’re exhausted,” Grandpa An frowned with concern. “It’s my fault for worrying Yanyan!”

“Just focus on getting better. That’s all that matters,” Nan Yan sighed heavily, her tone weighted with concern..
