Chapter 24
The next day, Su Yin was still a little groggy when she woke up. She looked at the time with sleepy eyes and it was almost noon.
It was three or four hours later than her usual wake-up time.
Su Yin was not stupid. She immediately thought of the medicine she had taken last night. She called the nurse over and asked, "What did Xie Lingxu give me to take?"
The young nurse answered truthfully: "The medicine the director prescribed yesterday was sleeping pills."
Suyin: ...
She asked why she slept for so long.
The young nurse glanced at the young master's expression and spoke well of the dean in a low voice, "The dean is really responsible. He probably wants you to have a good rest."
After all, he is responsible for making rounds late into the night!
Su Yin waved her hand. Of course she knew what Xie Lingxu was thinking.
He was caught red-handed by this guy twice when he went out at night before. It would be strange if he didn't guard against it.
Just sleep peacefully, as long as you don’t sleep forever.
The nurse continued, "The patients from Yards 4 and 5 came this morning. I told them you were still sleeping, and they left. Now that they've had lunch, they should be here soon."
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Tian Xiao and Gu Qian'an came quickly. Su Yin was still eating, so the two of them surrounded her, one on each side, waiting for her eagerly.
"Good afternoon, Young Master!"
"Yeah, okay." Su Yin quickly took a few bites and stopped eating. She first sent the nurse away, repeatedly confirmed that no one was eavesdropping outside the door, and then closed the glass and drew the curtains to ensure that what was said inside would not be heard outside.
The whole room suddenly darkened.
Gu Qian'an:!
Judging from the situation, could it be that they are discussing something serious?
He and Tian Xiao looked at each other, sitting upright with their backs straight, like children in kindergarten who were about to perform on stage, nervous and excited.
The young master approached them and asked mysteriously, "How much do you know about the person in Courtyard Number One?"
"Ward No. 1?" Gu Qian scratched his head. "I don't know. I haven't seen the patient inside since I came in."
Tian Xiao also said, "I've never seen it, and I've never heard anyone talk about it."
"It's so mysterious, none of you know."
Su Yin stroked his chin, becoming more and more curious. There were many hidden talents in this small sanatorium, and each one of them was so mysterious.
Gu Qi'an asked curiously, "Why did the Young Master suddenly ask this? Do you want to see her?"
"I want to see you."
Since they want to turn the sanatorium into the territory of the Xiaoyao Sect, it is not enough to just take over the land. They also have to find a way to bring the people here under their command.
"In a sect, it's more lively when there are more people." Su Yin sighed, "Don't you think that the people in this sanatorium rarely come out to walk around, it's so cold and deserted, and it's so boring to stay in the yard all the time."
"Oh, I see. More people means more fun. The Young Sect Master wants to take the people from Courtyard One into our sect!"
"The sanatorium is indeed deserted. It would be great if everyone could come out and practice together."
Gu Qian'an was happy just thinking about being accepted into the sect and practicing together. He suddenly remembered his own sect entrance test and chuckled. He had completed this task perfectly.
He poked the friend next to him and asked, "What is your test to join the sect?"
The test to join the sect?
A question mark gradually appeared in Tian Xiao's eyes, "I..."
——Never heard of it?
Just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Su Yin: "Don't ask questions that are not conducive to harmony."
"Ah?" Gu Qian'an didn't think much about it. He just nodded obediently, "Oh."
He was easy to fool, so just in case, Su Yin quickly changed the subject back on track, "Not just Courtyard No. 1, I also want to take over Courtyard No. 2."
Although that person is a little crazy, they are evil, so being crazy is normal.
"You charge so much?"
Gu Qian'an felt a vague sense of crisis. Would anyone compete with him for the position of the young master's confidant?
Su Yin dispelled his doubts with her next words, "Don't worry, no matter how many people I recruit, you two are the only ones I trust."
Gu Qian'an:!
He wants to follow the young master for the rest of his life!
The two looked at each other affectionately, and anyone who saw it would have to praise the deep affection between master and servant.
Tian Xiao looked at the young man beside him who was deeply moved, thought for a moment, and asked, "Young Master, how do you want to recapture Courtyard No. 1?"
Su Yin looked at her with appreciation. Gu Qian'an was silly and she was smart. The two of them complemented each other and were simply perfect.
"Let's go and have a look first."
She changed the subject, "But it is said that the one in Courtyard No. 1 doesn't want to see anyone."
Gu Qianan raised his hand and replied, "Then just don't let her see it."
His eyes were as clear as before, and there was a hint of wisdom in them.
"That's what I thought."
Su Yin nodded with satisfaction. Although this child was a little silly, he was diligent and insightful.
"I'm thinking of picking a night to sneak into Courtyard No. 1 and take a look."
She was confident enough that she could accomplish her goal without being discovered by that person.
Gu Qi'an didn't understand and asked, "Why not turn it over during the day?"
"Come, I'll teach you the first rule of our evil ways - do great things quietly."
Su Yin leaned forward slightly and hooked her finger at him.
Gu Qian'an happily moved a stool and sat next to her, his face full of thirst for knowledge.
Su Yin hooked her arm around his shoulder and said, "Think about it, climbing over a wall isn't something you can do during the day. It's best done secretly on a dark, windy night when no one's watching."
Gu Qian'an:!
That makes sense.
"You must always remember that we are not on the right path, and this cannot be done openly and honestly."
The young boy nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and these few short words shook his heart countless times.
Yes, he is an evil person now, so he should act in an evil way!
When the people around were stunned by the coaxing, Tian Xiao asked softly: "Is there anything you need us to do?"
After so much preparation, Su Yin was finally able to state her biggest purpose for today, and she was very relieved.
"I need you to help me keep an eye on Xie Lingxu."
"Dean?"
Gu Qianan looked around. There was no eye-catching figure in the dim room. He lowered his voice and asked, "Will he know about our confidential conversation? Could it be that the dean has the ability to become invisible and pass through walls? Is he secretly listening to us here?"
"Not really. He figured out what I was thinking when we were strolling into Courtyard No. 1 yesterday."
But... Su Yin hesitated for a moment, feeling that what Gu Qi'an said made sense, "Could it be that he really has some spies here, so he can catch me every time?"
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that I ran into him every time I went out at night twice before.
Tian Xiao's eyes lit up. "Has the Young Sect Master been caught by the Dean before? Or does he happen every time?"
I get angry whenever I mention Su Yin. Even though he didn't do anything, the feeling of being watched is really unpleasant.
"Yes, he has a nose like a dog."
Tian Xiao nodded thoughtfully, as if she understood.
Gu Qi'an was confused and asked humbly, "Friend, what are your thoughts?"
She smiled shyly, "I think this might be telepathy."
Suyin:?
What the hell?
"Legend has it that this kind of connection occurs between lovers who are a match made in heaven or who are deeply connected. It's a sign and proof of love."
Su Yin: "Ah?"
She blinked in confusion, not understanding.
She could recognize these words separately, but when they were put together and applied to her and Xie Lingxu, why couldn't she understand...
While the young master was stunned, Gu Qian'an approached Tian Xiao and asked again humbly, "Excuse me, which legend is this?"
Tian Xiao leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Romance novel."
Gu Qianan was stunned for a moment, then raised his thumb and praised: "Zhiyin is indeed well-read!"
Tian Xiao felt embarrassed by the praise, lowered her head, and her eyes lit up.
This was the first time someone praised her for reading so much.
After racking his brain for a long time, Su Yin still didn't understand what Tian Xiao meant. Then he looked at his two confidants, who seemed to understand it very well...
Would she admit in front of them that she didn't understand? No, she would just change the subject.
"Well, I'm going to sneak into Courtyard No. 1 tonight. If the dean comes out, I want you two to find a way to hold him back."
"Think of a way?"
Gu Qian'an thought of the dean's expressionless face, and his straight back slowly bent again.
He didn't win.
"Any method will do."
Su Yin placed one hand on his shoulder and the other on Tian Xiao's shoulder, and gave him instructions with great earnestness, as if entrusting him with a heavy responsibility. "Just give me two quarters of an hour, I trust you!"
With the words "I believe", Gu Qian'an's back straightened instantly.
He got hit again!
Tian Xiao was used to seeing those disappointed and disgusted looks, and had never been trusted so much by anyone before. Her face flushed red, "Young Sect Master, I will definitely be able to do this well!"
Su Yin patted him gently in a soothing manner, "Well, I believe you can do it."
After thinking about it, she still felt uneasy. After all, Xie Lingxu was a real jerk. "It's okay if you really can't hold him back. Come and tell me so I can run away. You guys should remember to run away quickly too."
"Is it, is it that serious?"
This was the first time in Gu Qi'an's smooth life that he encountered the word "escape." He hesitated for a moment, "What will happen if the dean catches me?"
"The consequences will be serious!"
When saying this, Su Yin's expression was particularly serious.
Tian Xiao subconsciously asked: "Will he, will he hit us?"
She paused and shook her head, "That shouldn't happen."
The Xie Lingxu here is not as violent as that bastard, and he doesn't even react much when he is assassinated.
"Then..." Gu Qian'an wanted to continue asking.
Su Yin interrupted him, "In short, it's very serious!"
"Also, what if he finds out about what the three of us did together and doesn't allow us to get together anymore?"
Gu Qian'an:!
Tian Xiao:!
That's really serious!
The two of them looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Su Yin had already achieved the desired effect, so she softened her tone and soothed him, "Don't be too nervous. Trust me, as long as nothing unexpected happens, this will go super smoothly."
"We believe in the Young Master!" they answered in unison.
"Then it's up to you tonight!"
"Oh, right."
Su Yin tucked her hair behind her ears and said casually, "Xie Lingxu has become my attending physician."
Gu Qian'an:!
Tian Xiao:!
The two exchanged glances, a similar smile on their faces, and said in unison, "Congratulations, Young Master, on getting what you wished for!"
Su Yin waved her hand, "It's still early, it's still early. We've only just taken the first step."
Tian Xiao said sincerely: "I have asked the medical director about it, and they all said that he is not easy to get along with. I didn't expect that the young master could easily defeat him in just one day!"
A great start!
love!
Her clothes were wrinkled with excitement.
Gu Qian'an even said: "As expected, if the Young Sect Master takes action personally, it will definitely be easy and easy to capture them!"
What they said made Su Yin's lips curl up wildly.
It’s no big deal, these are all no big deal, just Xie Lingxu!
Gu Qianan became more and more excited as he spoke, "If the dean is willing to be the young master's attending physician today, he will be willing to give his heart to you tomorrow, and he can hand over the sanatorium to you the day after tomorrow!"
"Yeah?"
"Of course, don't you see that our young master is--" He turned around with a smile and was about to introduce him to the brother behind him, but he suddenly saw the dean's cold face.
Gu Qi'an's eyes widened, "Dean!!!"
The tone of voice changed, just like a mouse seeing a cat, with its fur standing on end.
Xie Lingxu glanced at him sideways, walked past the two people who lowered their heads and pretended not to hear, and slowly opened the blackout curtains. The dim room was instantly filled with light.
He then returned to the three of them and asked Gu Qian'an word by word, "What did you say I wanted to do?"
Gu Qian'an covered his mouth, but it was no use. His mumbling words came out through his fingers: "I absolutely did not say that the dean would fall in love with the young master, nor did I say that the dean would hand over the sanatorium to you!"
The young nurse who followed the dean in suddenly had a complicated expression.
Could this colander-like mouth be the legendary—
The self-cultivation of a fence-sitter?!
