Chapter 36 Learning Opportunities
When Ye Chengdong walked out of the hotel, his legs were shaking so badly they were no longer his own.

He frantically wiped the sweat from his forehead, got into the car, and leaned back in his seat before daring to breathe heavily.

His mind was still replaying the events of the night, and he gritted his teeth as he called his personal secretary.

"Check for me everyone who went to the laboratory on the second floor between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. the day before yesterday."

The secretary, still half asleep, mumbled, "Director, should we also check the doctors who have been there?"

Ye Chengdong roared, "Investigate them all! Even if a dog goes in, find out who owns that dog!"

The secretary woke up with a start and quickly replied, "Yes, Director."

Nan Yu returned safely to the old house and saw that the previously dark hall was now as bright as day.

She paused for a few seconds before slowly walking inside.

As soon as I entered, I heard Chi Ying's voice.

"Xiaoyu, where have you been so late?"

Nan Yu looked up at Chi Ying, who was sitting on the sofa, and saw that she looked anxious and worried.

She quickly put on a flattering smile and went to stand in front of Chi Ying.

"Grandma, my hand hurts so much that I can't sleep, and I was afraid of disturbing your rest, so I went out for a walk by myself to relieve the pain."

Upon hearing this, Chi Ying felt even more sorry for her and pulled her over.

"Xu Qi, bring me the pain relief ointment that Old Li left behind. I'll put it on Xiao Yu."

Xu Qi immediately took the ointment over.

Chi Ying took her hand, carefully unwrapped the gauze, and gently applied the ointment.

As she applied the ointment, she said, "Xiaoyu, if it hurts, just tell Grandma, and Grandma will apply it more gently."

Nan Yu looked at her grandmother, whose hair was completely white and who was wearing reading glasses, carefully applying medicine to her. A bittersweet feeling welled up in her heart. She said in a hoarse voice, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all."

After applying the medicine, Chi Ying looked at Nan Yu again.

“Xiaoyu, I couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night because I don’t get much sleep, so I wanted to check if you were sleeping well. When I found that you weren’t in the room, Grandma was so scared that she thought something had happened to you and immediately sent someone to look for you.”

"It's good that you're alright and back safely. Next time you want to go out at night, ask someone to go with you. Don't go out alone again."

A hint of guilt flashed in Nan Yu's eyes. "Grandma, I'm sorry for making you worry."

Chi Ying patted her head and smiled gently at her, "It's okay. It's normal that you're not used to living here for the first time. You'll get used to it as you stay here more often."

"You need to take good care of yourself now. Go upstairs and get some sleep. If you feel unwell anywhere this time, just call the nanny and have her take care of it."

Nan Yu nodded gently, "Okay, Grandma."

The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning.

Li Chongbai couldn't wait to arrive at the Huo family's old residence.

He held a bouquet of vibrant flowers in his arms, a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of anticipation.

Seeing Chi Ying come downstairs, he quickly asked, "Is Xiaoyu awake?"

"Xiaoyu will be down in a bit." Chi Ying was surprised to see the flowers he had specially prepared. "Old Li, you went home early last night just to prepare this?"

Li Chongbai nodded and pointed to the bag beside him. "Not only flowers, I also prepared this. Xiaoyu gave me such a rare learning opportunity, how could I come empty-handed?"

Chi Ying looked at the bag curiously, just about to ask a question.

Li Chongbai suddenly stood up, stuffed the flowers in his arms into Nan Yu's arms as she came downstairs, then came back, opened his bag, and took out a red banner.

Under Chi Ying's questioning gaze, he smiled broadly, unfurled the banner, and revealed the words inside.

【Thank you so much, Madam, for giving me this learning opportunity!】
