Rong Qi had Xu Yi bring over a pen and paper, and she quickly wrote down a prescription before handing it to Mrs. Hong.

With a look of immense gratitude, Mrs. Hong clutched the prescription close to her chest as if it were a precious gem. She was truly thankful to Rong Qi. If it hadn’t been for Rong Qi, Mrs. Hong would have dismissed her symptoms as mere food poisoning, never suspecting liver cancer.

Besides Mrs. Hong’s gratefulness, she was also astonished that Rong Qi’s medical skills were truly exceptional. If Rong Qi was so skilled in medicine, Mrs. Hong thought that Ye Nanshen’s illness would have hope for recovery.

Before Mrs. Hong could say a word, Zhuang Ling promptly pulled her away, “Um, Mrs. Hong, there’s something I need to discuss with you. Let’s talk about it right now…”

Mrs. Hong allowed herself to be led away by Zhuang Ling, leaving Rong Qi and Ye Nanshen alone in the courtyard.

“Do you have time tonight, Little Qi?” Ye Nanshen asked.

“What’s wrong?” Rong Qi inquired.

“To welcome the team from Qiyan Studio, the Gu family is hosting a banquet and has invited several notable families and socialites,” Ye Nanshen explained succinctly.

Rong Qi understood immediately. Sighing in resignation, she said, “Alright, 1’11 go get ready.”

A faint smile appeared on Ye Nanshen’s slightly pale face.

After Rong Qi walked away, Ye Nanshen’s smile slowly faded. His eyes narrowed slightly, “What’s happening with the Rong Holdings? They can’t even handle small matters?”

Zhuang Ling, who had just returned, lowered his head, his tone filled with guilt. He said, “Master Shen, it was Madam who sent Eagle to the Rong Holdings. Our men were hesitant to take action, fearing conflict with her men.”

Ye Nanshen’s eyes turned icy.

Zhuang Ling continued, “The last few shipments from Rong Tianshi were seized at customs. The factory has been mortgaged and is drowning in debt. Without production, the company can’t function. Just the penalties alone are astronomical. It’s unlikely they’ll recover. Should we continue to press on?”

“Anyone who harms those under my protection will pay the price,” Ye Nanshen declared coldly. “Inform Rong Tianshi that after tonight’s Gu family banquet, in consideration of Rong Qi, I’ll give him one more chance. Tell him to wait there.”

Ye Nanshen didn’t care who Rong Tianshi was, but anyone who hurt Rong Qi would not be spared.

“Yes,” Zhuang Ling said, nodding.

Around 7 p.m., the evening descended. The lights of the capital city sparkled like jewels, illuminating the protective moat around the city.

Ye Nanshen and Rong Qi took a car to the Gu family’s residence.

After arriving, Ye Nanshen first headed to the living room to meet the head of the Gu family, Gu Yuyan’s father and instructed Rong Qi to wander around the garden on her own.

Nodding, Rong Qi headed to the backyard and sat by the pond to enjoy the breeze. Suddenly, a set of soft footsteps approached from behind. Turning around, Rong Qi looked at the upright young man standing behind her and offered a slight smile, “He Jinghan?”

“Mm,” He Jinghan returned Rong Qi’s smile and took a seat beside her.

“What are you doing here?” He Jinghan asked as he looked at her curiously.

He Jinghan was aware that the Rong family was a second-tier wealthy family, not really related to the business of the Gu family. A grand family like the Gu family wouldn’t typically extend an invitation to them. So, he was puzzled.

“Oh, 1 came here with a friend,” Rong Qi replied as she blinked her eyes.

He Jinghan nodded wisely and did not ask further.

Both sat quietly by the pond, neither speaking nor feeling awkward.

Rong Qi always felt a familiar warmth when with He Jinghan, as though they were long-lost friends who hadn’t seen each other in years. Yet, her memory did not include this person. Each time she thought about that, she couldn’t help but feel perplexed..
