Lu Rongyu trembled slightly, shrinking closer to Lu Yixuan, her eyes filled with unease. She lowered her head as if she had done something wrong, her voice barely audible: "I'm sorry, I just saw how much pain my brother and the others were in, and I thought that since you know medicine, you could save them, but... I was being presumptuous. If you were willing, you could have just now..." She covered her mouth as if she had said something wrong, hurriedly explaining, "I... I didn't mean that."
A calculating glint flashed in her eyes. Since she couldn't kill Lu An'an now, she would create some trouble for her in front of the camera.
[What did Lu Rongyu say? Lu An'an knows medicine?!]
[Are you kidding me? Lu An'an looks like she's just come of age, how could she possibly know medicine, let alone be a very good one?]
[The key question is, if she really knew medicine, why didn't she offer to help Lu Yixuan and the others when she saw how badly they were in pain?]
[My goodness, this is terrifying to think about. They refused to help someone in distress just because they had a few words exchanged?]
[No, I mean, why do you believe everything you hear? Anyone with eyes can see they don't get along. What if it's just slander?]
[Putting everything else aside, just the fact that He Tingyu blamed her sister without even knowing the facts—what's wrong with not saving her?]
All eyes were drawn to Lu An'an because of Lu Rong's cryptic words.
Qin Yin's eyes widened, full of doubt. "An'an, you can even heal?"
Lu Yixuan didn't believe it at all. "Rongyu, what are you saying? How could she possibly have such good medical skills? Don't be fooled."
He Tingyu's gaze was like a sharp blade as she stared directly at Lu An'an, her tone unfriendly: "Lu An'an, you know medicine, why didn't you save us just now?"
Lu An'an smiled faintly, yet with a hint of mockery, and asked in a nonchalant tone, "Do you see any light on me?"
He Tingyu replied, somewhat puzzled, "No."
Lu An'an chuckled, her laughter carrying a hint of coldness: "Yes, I don't have any holy light, and I'm not a saint. How could you think that after you insulted me, I would still rush to heal you without holding a grudge?"
"you!"
He Tingyu's lips curled into a playful, cold smile, her voice sharp: "You make it sound so nice, but you're not actually capable and are just saying it on purpose, are you? After all, there are cameras everywhere on this island, and you're afraid of making a fool of yourself in front of the whole nation, aren't you?"
[Wait a minute, it seems my sister didn't refute the fact that she knows medicine!!!]
[Blind student's comment: Wow!! That girl is too amazing!!]
[I'm telling you guys, don't overhype it, or you might really crash and burn.]
Lu An'an glanced at her casually, her tone meaningful: "You'd better make sure you don't mess things up first."
[Tsk tsk, I just browsed through the gossip section during my free time, and He Tingyu has quite a bit of information.]
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanli's ears perked up involuntarily, his interest piqued. "What's the scoop, little sister? Spill it out!"
He Tingyu glared angrily at Lu An'an and shouted sharply, "Who are you cursing!"
Qin Nuo didn't stop walking, his whole demeanor exuding impatience. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he turned around, his deep voice carrying a hint of suppressed anger: "Enough! All we've been doing along the way is these trivial arguments. Can't we be quiet? We're all in a hurry to get on our way. Let's not waste time here, okay?"
Lu An'an indifferently withdrew her gaze, ignoring He Tingyu, and turned to continue walking forward with Butler Wang.
The atmosphere among the crowd suddenly became oppressive and heavy.
Apart from Lu Yanli, he was so anxious that he was scratching his head and couldn't get a taste of the hot gossip.

A moment later, Butler Wang led everyone into a meticulously arranged residential area. He stopped, turned around to look at everyone, and his voice remained calm and composed, still carrying a smile.
"Dear guests, we have arrived. This is where you will stay for the next seven days."
Following his directions, the group looked before them and saw a series of small and exquisite houses, each one seemingly a castle straight out of a fairy tale. In front of each house, a butler in a well-fitting uniform and with elegant manners was waiting. They were either male or female, with gentle faces and perfectly timed smiles.
Lu Yanli counted the rooms; there were five in total. He immediately had a bad feeling and frowned as he asked, "Where are we going to stay?"
Butler Wang said with a smile, "Girls will live with girls, and boys will live with boys."
Lu Yanli refused and tried to change the arrangement, "Can't we live in groups? The house is so big, six people can have plenty of room, right?"
The leader's smile remained unchanged as he coldly refused, "No, guest."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yin's eyes lit up, and a gentle smile bloomed on her lips as she looked at Lu An'an and said, "In that case, Brother Yan, please take care of my brother. An'an and I hit it off immediately, so why don't we just...?"
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Jiajia suddenly darted out, with a touch of playfulness and an undeniable determination, forcefully pushing Qin Yin aside. She spread her arms and tightly hugged Lu An'an, preemptively declaring her ownership with a smile: "Hehe, An'an and I are staying together. Sorry, Sister Qin Yin, I already told An'an before."
Lu An'an glanced at Shen Jiajia helplessly.
Qin Yin finally found a chance to be alone with me, and this silly girl ruined it.
Lu Yanli's heart, which had just been in his throat, finally settled down.
Thank goodness, he was terrified. Shen Jiajia is a really good girl.
“Then I’ll live with Shen Yi.” Lu Yanli naturally hooked his arm around Shen Yi’s shoulder.
Shen Yi nodded. "Okay."
Qin Yin was very unwilling to give up this hard-won opportunity, and forced a smile, "If there's one less girl, the three of us can live together. How about the three of us live together?"
