The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 300: I Can’t Stay Here
Chapter 300: Chapter 300: I Can’t Stay Here
Nan Bofu didn’t give Nan Yu a chance to refuse and turned to Nan Zhuoyuan, "Zhuo Yuan, arrange for Doctor Li and Vice Chairman Gu to be accommodated."
Nan Zhuoyuan glanced at Nan Yu, who stood motionless because of her mask and sunglasses, unable to discern her exact expression.
He pursed his lips, "Alright, Dad."
Nan Bofu stood up from the sofa again, "I’m going to stay with Azhu upstairs, Zhuo Yuan, take good care of Doctor Li and Vice Chairman Gu for me."
Having said that, he spared no one a second glance and headed straight upstairs.
As soon as Nan Bofu left for upstairs, Nan Qingqing, with a thought, actively latched onto Gu Chuxin’s arm and approached Nan Zhuoyuan with a coquettish voice, "Eldest brother, why don’t we let Vice Chairman Gu stay in the guest room next to mine?"
Nan Zhuoyuan swept a cold glance over the two of them, "No, mother had previously reserved a guest room for Vice Chairman Gu, decorated entirely to her liking; Vice Chairman Gu will probably be more comfortable in that room."
Gu Chuxin said with a smile, "Before returning to the country, Duan Zhu told me she had specially reserved a room for me, so that when I came back to the country, I could stay for a few days and chat with her."
She sighed, "It’s a shame that Duan Zhu was harmed by someone and has now become a comatose vegetable, unable to chat."
Nan Qingqing also shed a few tears, and said sadly, "Vice Chairman Gu, I believe you will definitely be able to wake my mother up. By then, you can chat again, and my mother will surely be very happy."
Gu Chuxin nodded.
Off to the side, Nan Yu watched these two putting on their nauseating pretense, and a hint of disgust flashed through her eyes.
She directly said to Nan Zhuoyuan, "Eldest Young Master, I need a quiet room; could you please take me to my room? I need to rest."
Upon hearing this, Nan Zhuoyuan immediately said, "Doctor Li, there happens to be a very quiet room in the house; let me take you there."
He turned back to look at Nan Zhou, "Azhou, you and Qingqing take Vice Chairman Gu to her room; let the Vice Chairman rest as well."
Nan Zhou, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation between Nan Qingqing and Gu Chuxin, came to his senses and quickly said, "Alright, Eldest Brother."
His eyes showed a serious gleam, "Vice Chairman Gu, this way, please."
Gu Chuxin and Nan Qingqing left cheerfully chatting with him.
Nan Zhou, noticing their relaxed demeanor, especially Nan Qingqing, who did not have the slightest look of distress on her face, felt his suspicions deepen.
Why did his sister seem so odd?
Once they had all left, Nan Zhuoyuan stepped forward in two strides, stood in front of Nan Yu, and saw clearly the pallor on her face and the thin sweat breaking out on her forehead.
In a voice only the two of them could hear, he said, "Xiao Yu, are you alright? Can you hold on?"
Nan Yu nodded lightly, but her hands hidden under her jacket were trembling slightly.
Nan Zhuoyuan supported her shoulders with his hand, providing support to prevent her from collapsing on the spot.
The two quickly left the front hall and headed to a guest room in the back courtyard.
The Nan Family ancestral home was designed in traditional Chinese garden style, with winding bridges and corridors. It took a full twenty minutes to reach the quiet guest room.
Nan Zhuoyuan helped Nan Yu to sit down, then immediately turned around to close the door and windows tightly before turning back to face Nan Yu.
"Xiao Yu, this room has the best soundproofing. No one outside can hear what we say. As long as the door is closed, nobody will know what you have said or done inside."
On hearing this, Nan Yu immediately removed her sunglasses and mask, reclined on the sofa, and looked up at Nan Zhuoyuan.
"Eldest brother, the poison in mother hasn’t been completely cleared; I only managed to expel most of it. To completely rid her of it, another herb is needed," she said.
"Only I have that herb, and I must go back to get it. I cannot stay here."
