The young man rushed over and cautiously checked under the man’s nose. Feeling his faint breath, a look of relief crossed his face.

“Why did it suddenly become like this?”

The sudden deterioration of his condition was alarming. If there was no solution, he feared that his older brother wouldn’t make it!

The young man looked at the medicine box in his hand, then at his older brother, who had fallen into a deep coma, his life hanging by a thread.

With determination, he opened the medicine box and poured out two small brown pills the size of soybeans, which he carefully placed in his brother’s mouth.

After feeding his brother the pills, he gently helped him lie down and sat by his bedside, holding his brother’s icy-cold hand. His eyes were red, and his voice quivered as he said, “Big brother, you mustn’t leave us. If anything happens to you, our family…”

He couldn’t bear to think about what would happen if his older brother were to pass away. Who would be able to control the rebellious members of the family, those wolves in sheep’s clothing who had harbored resentment for so long?

After about fifteen minutes, Fu Yubai, who was lying in bed, slowly regained consciousness.

Seeing him wake up, Fu Linfeng was overwhelmed with excitement. The medicine he had bought was indeed genuine!

His big brother was saved!

“Big brother, you scared me to death,” the strapping twenty-year-old young man sobbed profusely in front of his older brother.

“Xiaofeng, I’m fine,” Fu Yubai reassured him in a gentle tone.

No matter how much pain and torment he endured, this man remained as composed and elegant as a gentleman from ancient times, with a demeanor that was as clear as a gentle breeze.

Fu Linfeng nodded in a daze and then urgently said, “Big brother, you’re going to be okay. I’ve found medicine that can save you, and you’ll recover soon!” Fu Yubai’s expression shifted slightly, and he cleared his throat before speaking, “Xiaofeng, let me see that medicine.”

Fu Linfeng quickly handed the medicine to Fu Yubai.

With his slender, pale fingers, Fu Yubai took out one pill from the medicine bottle and sniffed it beneath his nose. A hint of something unusual flashed in his eyes.

He pressed the pill between his fingertips, grinding it into powder, and murmured softly, “Little Junior Sister…”

“Big brother, what did you say?” Fu Linfeng didn’t catch it clearly.

“Nothing, ” Fu Yubai replied calmly before placing the powdered medicine into his mouth.

He couldn’t afford to waste it.

Fu Linfeng didn’t dwell on his murmured words and eagerly asked, “Big brother, can this medicine cure your illness?”

“It can temporarily suppress it,” Fu Yubai coughed softly. “Xiaofeng, can you contact the person who prepared this medicine?”

“Then, I’ll go back and ask,” Fu Linfeng said with some uncertainty. “I’m not sure if the person who sold me these medicines is the one who concocted them. I’ll see if I can contact the alchemist.

“Big brother, I’ll let you know once I find out!”

“Okay.”

After leaving Fu Yubai’s room, Fu Linfeng rushed back to his own room, turned on his computer, and logged into the Dark Realm. He found “Diving Fish” and left her a message, hoping that she would contact him once she saw the message.

However, during this period, Nan Yan had not been online, so he had not received a response…

Time flew by, and the weekend arrived.

Nan Yan deliberately sent a message to Qin Lu, letting him know that she was going to see Lin Zhiyan today and that he didn’t need to come to pick her up.

After finishing breakfast, Nan Yan looked at the cheerful Jiang Nai, who was tidying up the dining table, and asked thoughtfully, “Little Nai, do you have some free time?”

“Yes, Sister!” Jiang Nai nodded eagerly. “What do you need me to do?” “If you have time, I’d like you to accompany me to meet someone.” “Sure, Sister! Let me finish this up first, and I’ll be ready in a moment.” Jiang Nai was very diligent and determined.

No matter how many times Nan Yan and Grandpa An told her that she didn’t need to do these things, she would still help tidy up the table after every meal.

Unable to persuade her, Nan Yan just let her do it.

If she was willing to do it, then let her do it.

Five minutes later, Jiang Nai finished tidying up and came back after washing her hands.

“Sister, shall we go now?”

“Yes.”

Nan Yan hadn’t obtained her driver’s license yet, so whenever she went out, Grandpa An would have a driver take her. When they arrived at the Lin family’s house, Nan Yan asked the driver to go back.

“Sister, who are we here to see? Is it your friend?”

“She’s like a sister to me. She’s quite lonely, and besides me, she doesn’t have any other friends. I’ll introduce you to her, and in the future, when you have time, you can visit her on my behalf.”

She was too busy, and with many responsibilities on her plate, she couldn’t come to see Lin Zhiyan often.

Jiang Nai had a lively personality, while Lin Zhiyan was more introverted, which balanced each other out.

Jiang Nai listened with a compassionate expression in her eyes. “Sister, I’ll come to accompany Sister Lin whenever I have time. Sister Lin is really pitiful.”

“Well, just don’t let it interfere with your studies.”

“I understand!”

Lin Zhiyan knew in advance that Nan Yan was coming. She had Lin’s mother prepare many small cakes and delicious snacks in advance.

After Nan Yan and Jiang Nai entered, Lin’s mother smiled and said, “Yan Yan, you’re here. Don’t rush to leave today. Stay until after dinner. Auntie will show you some culinary skills!”

“Okay,” Nan Yan replied with a faint smile. She then introduced, “Auntie, this is Jiang Nai.”

Jiang Nai politely greeted, “Hello, Auntie!” She smiled, revealing two cute dimples.

“The little girl is really beautiful. Is she Nan Yan’s sister?”

“Yes.”

“Zhiyan is upstairs, she just went up. I’ll go call her.”

Lin’s mother said as she was about to go upstairs.

Nan Yan stopped her and said, “Auntie, there’s no need to call her. We’ll go upstairs to find her.”

“Alright, you two go upstairs. I’ll bring you some snacks later.”

Upstairs, Lin Zhiyan sat blankly in front of her computer, staring at the posts on the screen with a pale expression. She hadn’t even heard the sound of the door opening when Nan Yan and Jiang Nai entered.

When Nan Yan walked up to her and noticed her troubled expression, she placed a hand on Lin Zhiyan’s shoulder and asked, “What’s wrong, Zhiyan?” Lin Zhiyan quickly tried to hide her emotions and forced a smile. “Yanyan, I’m fine…

Nan Yan’s gaze shifted to the screen. Lin Zhiyan, belatedly realizing her mistake, attempted to close the window, but Nan Yan was faster. She saw the contents of the post clearly.

Someone was hurling insults at Lin Zhiyan. Lin Zhiyan had social anxiety, and her only social platform was Weibo and a few other online messaging apps. She was an artist and had a certain level of recognition in the art community.

Because she had previously supported Nan Yan and spoken up on her behalf, her fan base had grown, and her reputation had increased. Her Weibo account featured her artwork and occasional glimpses into her daily life, portraying her as a peaceful and unassuming girl.

Now, she was being accused of plagiarism, pressured to apologize, and even urged to quit her art career.

As Nan Yan read through the malicious comments, her expression turned colder, and an intense aura surrounded her.

“Yanyan…” Lin Zhiyan sounded somewhat anxious. “It’s okay; I won’t read them anymore. Please don’t be angry.”

“I won’t use this Weibo account anymore, and I’ll ignore them. I just want to quietly focus on my art.”

Nan Yan asked, “When did this start?”
