124: Chapter 124: Who Do You Like?

Yan Qianyi paused, frowning in annoyance.

Dammit, her fiery temper.

She lost control and had said too much.

The more she spoke, the easier it was to reveal herself.

Mu Yunlie rested his hands on the table, leaning forward slightly, and commanded, “Take off your mask.”

He felt that this peculiar girl in front of him seemed to recognize him.

Previously, his grandma had arranged for him to meet her friend’s granddaughters.

Could it be that this time, just to pique his curiosity, they had changed things up?

“Your objective has been achieved,” said Mu Yunlie.

“What objective?” Yan Qianyi sat up straight, afraid that the mask on her face might fall off, and touched the strap hanging behind her ear.

At this moment, Mu Yunlie was very close to her.

Even though she couldn’t see his face, she could feel his piercing gaze.

“Isn’t all this mystery just to spark my interest?” Mu Yunlie said scornfully.

Yan Qianyi coldly laughed twice, “Sorry, I really don’t have any interest in catching your attention.”

She admitted that initially, his appearance had indeed bewitched her, sparking a tiny bit of interest.

But now, her grand ambition was to win the heart of the First Commander of the Federation Empire.

Compared to her beloved Lord Commander, Mu Yunlie was as insignificant as the tip of a little finger.

Mu Yunlie coldly responded, “Stop pretending, I know who you are.”

At those words, Yan Qianyi’s spine stiffened.

Was this what they called Fire Eye Gold?

Had he managed to see through her despite how thoroughly she was covered?

Although she hadn’t hidden her medical skills from Mu Yunlie, to avoid unnecessary complications, she didn’t want anyone to know the identity of the Masked Divine Doctor.

Yan Qianyi reached for her cap, about to take it off, when Mu Yunlie continued:

“Two years ago, my grandma met you just because of her friend.

I told you then that I wasn’t interested in you.

Last year, you infiltrated my house as a maid, didn’t I warn you not to play tricks in front of me?

I don’t have time for your games.”

The hand Yan Qianyi had raised to remove her hat suddenly stopped.

It turned out he had mistaken her for someone else.

She silently breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her hand.

That was close…

“What did you do to get my grandma to help you again?” Mu Yunlie asked.

Without a word, Yan Qianyi stood up, pushed him aside, and ran out as if fleeing.

Mu Yunlie, thinking she had left heartbroken and more confident than ever of her identity, did not pursue her.

He grimaced and dialed Nangong Xiaoxue’s voice message.

“Ah Lie, how did it go?” Nangong Xiaoxue asked excitedly.

Mu Yunlie replied gravely, “Grandma, didn’t I make it clear to you that I’m not interested in Grandma Wang’s granddaughter?”

“Yes, why do you bring this up again?”

“Then why did you arrange for her to meet me today?

Wearing a mask, pretending to be all mysterious, did you think changing the setup would make me interested?”

“What?

No, Ah Lie, could you have misunderstood?” Nangong Xiaoxue said anxiously, “I haven’t been in touch with those surnamed Wang for a year, how could I possibly arrange for her granddaughter to meet you?

I don’t even like that girl.”

“It’s not her?” Mu Yunlie frowned, “Then who is the girl tonight?”

Nangong Xiaoxue didn’t know who the Masked Divine Doctor was; she just felt that letting Ah Lie retrieve her was definitely the right choice.

She asked, “What’s exactly going on now?

Did you mistake her for someone else and ended up driving her away?”

“Who exactly is she?

Answer me first.”

“Ah, didn’t I tell you last time?

I don’t know her very well, but I know she’s a good girl!”

“Every time you run away from home, who exactly are you dealing with?

What did she mean by saying you were at the nursing home?” Mu Yunlie’s face turned ashen.

“What did she tell you?”

“She didn’t say anything, just accused me of being unfilial and said that you should go to the nursing home.”

“Oh, it’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding.

I was just inspecting the nursing home, and that’s where we met, so she might have thought I was living there,” Nangong Xiaoxue blurted out.

That nursing home was her only hiding spot, her refuge from that deadly old man.

It couldn’t be exposed.

“Don’t associate with people of unclear identity anymore!”

Mu Yunlie said and abruptly hung up the call.

His grandmother was really driving him to his wit’s end.

His grandfather, such a dignified man, yet couldn’t even manage his own wife.

His own woman in the future must never be like his grandmother.

Yan Qianyi got back home.

Seeing her flustered appearance, Aunt Xue asked worriedly, “Miss, were you followed by some bad guy?”

“No.” Yan Qianyi took off her hat and mask, then picked up her water glass and gulped down several mouthfuls.

Just then, a call from Grandma Nangong came through, and she took the glass of water into the bedroom.

Aunt Xue hurried to double-lock the front door.

This apartment was mostly rented, populated by all sorts of people.

Her beautiful miss, with her S-level fertility and no strong man at home, she always worried that some bad guy might target her.

Yan Qianyi then answered Grandma Nangong’s call after entering the bedroom.

“Little Divine Doctor, did my grandson bully you?” Nangong Xiaoxue asked.

“No.

Grandma Nangong, your grandson is indeed very handsome, but we’re really not suitable.”

“Did he bully you, didn’t he?”

Nangong Xiaoxue refused to believe that there were girls in the world who wouldn’t fall for Ah Lie.

If it hadn’t worked out tonight, then it must be her grandson’s fault, scaring the poor girl.

“Really, I already have someone I like, I am so sorry.”

“…” Silence fell on the other end for a while before Nangong Xiaoxue asked sternly, “Who is the person you like?”

Once Little Divine Doctor said the name, she could immediately find that person and erase him from Little Divine Doctor’s world.

“This is my privacy, I’m sorry to disappoint you.

Although I can’t be your granddaughter-in-law, if you have any discomfort in the future, I can still come to the nursing home to treat you.”

She guessed that Grandma Nangong liked her mainly because of her excellent medical skills.

Everyone liked to have a doctor in the family.

“Little Divine Doctor…”

“Grandma Nangong.” Yan Qianyi interrupted Nangong Xiaoxue, “You said earlier that as long as I met your grandson and didn’t fall for him, you would not force me.”

“Alright then.” Nangong Xiaoxue sighed.

Worried that Nangong Xiaoxue might feel upset and trigger heart rhythm issues, Yan Qianyi consoled, “Your grandson is very excellent, he won’t have trouble finding a good girl.”

Mu Yunlie certainly wouldn’t have trouble finding a good girl.

But now, Nangong Xiaoxue was convinced that the Little Divine Doctor was the best girl and must become her granddaughter-in-law!

Nangong Xiaoxue was not someone who gave up easily.

After hanging up the call, she pondered for a long time with furrowed brows.

Suddenly, a smile appeared in her eyes.

She had a plan!
