187 Planning Ahead (1/2)

City of Long Han, Nanglong family territory

Soujin looked towards the woman behind Yan. Despite years in the Cold Palace, she still knew the etiquette and manner of a refined lady. The time she spent on that place only made her charm lower, but it made her look more intelligent and mature.

”Madam Qin.”

Madam Qin looked towards the young man before her. In the past, this young man fought with her son almost every day and it makes her felt helpless. But, looking at him now, he was already a capable man who can do a lot of things by himself.

”You have grown up, Soujin.”

Soujin nodded. ”It's good to see you safe.”

Soujin took Madam Qin inside the residence. His mother had been nagging him to let her see Madam Qin again. Qin Shie was eager to see her long friend whom she hadn't meet for years.

”You still look young, Qin'er,” Qin Shie was startled upon seeing Madam Qin. Then her expression changed to look at Madam Qin with a smile.

Madam Qin smiled. ”You must be joking. How can a woman in her mid 30 considered young.”

”You do…”

The two women soon chatted away as Soujin leave them talk and meet with Yan who was standing outside. The young man looked more calm and at ease.

”Your mother is quite cooperative to the rescue mission,” Soujin remarked and watched Yan's expression, ”Are you satisfied with this?”

”Yes, is there anything wrong?” Yan asked with confusion.

Soujin didn't answer immediately and after a few seconds he shook his head. ”You're just too idiot.”

”…Are you looking for a trouble again?”

Soujin instead asked back, ”I heard that there is some trouble?”

Yan's face froze and he nodded solemnly. ”That brother of mine is suspecting something. I manage to fool him once, but I'm not sure how in the future would be.”

”How did he come to suspect you?”

”Shu appearance that day,” Yan said in rueful tone. ”I have made a huge blunder.”

Soujin recalled that day back. That was the first time after a long time that they lost control of their selves and do things that they would normally didn't do. The reckless decision of that time seemed to be really disastrous.

Ming Kui was not that sharp of a prince, but he's not a fool. Besides that, he had gotten that smart assistant, Xuan Pei, who would surely helped him noticed the important marks from those things that piqued his interest.

Luckily, Soujin didn't do anything big except a bit rushed to save Jun Min. He had spread news that he just doesn't want to lose his rival so easily. That way, the suspicion towards Soujin was erased completely.

”It seemed that you're going to be targeted again,” Soujin remarked.

”Can't you help me in this case? The troubles are so irritating,” Yan said with an annoyed tone. Somehow this friend of his was getting more unreliable as time passed by.

”You can solve it on your own. Why should I intervene?”

Hearing that answer from Soujin, Yan can only raise his hand in defeat. The two of them walked down the streets towards Hospital of Fan Hui.

”That man should learn to name his hospital better,” said Yan protesting.

Fan Hui Hospital is hospital where Ming Hui build and run. He was the main doctor of this place, but he would only receive the hardest to cure patient while the others were handled by the other doctors of the hospital. Despite being a new hospital, the fame of Ming Hui had spread out widely.

The name of this hospital obviously comes from his name and his girlfriend, Fan Lanying. To make it less obvious, he used the girl surname, but for those who know his real identity, it's not hard to deduce how this name comes from.

Soujin looked around. He stopped one of the people there. ”Where is Doctor Hui?”
