Marcus stared dumbfounded at Nan Yan, his mind blank.

Nan Yan grew impatient and poked his forehead, her tone agitated, “I’m asking you something, are you being silly?” Marcus exclaimed absentmindedly, “Alice?”

Was he going crazy?

How could he believe that the girl in front of him might be Alice?

Even if Alice hadn’t died, she couldn’t have turned into a girl who was only eighteen or nineteen years old!

“Yeah.”

Nan Yan responded faintly, her tone somewhat impatient.

She hadn’t planned to reveal herself so soon.

At least, she wanted to have the capability and the right circumstances to reconnect with that circle before acknowledging her true identity.

But she hadn’t anticipated that Marcus would make such a reckless move.

If she hadn’t coincidentally encountered him and noticed his abnormal behavior, it might have been too late if she tried to find him later.

Nan Yan didn’t know how much shock her words had caused Marcus.

His eyes displayed disbelief, excitement, overwhelming joy, and profound sorrow.

But there was no doubt.

He grasped Nan Yan’s hand almost uncontrollably, his eyes reddening, his voice hoarse, “How did you end up like this?”

“Alice, you’re alive! This is truly wonderful!”

“Why didn’t you recognize me the last time we met? Were you planning to abandon me?”

Marcus felt wronged.

It wasn’t their first meeting!

They had met before in the imperial capital; they had even passed by each other. Why hadn’t she told him she was alive?

Nan Yan patted his shoulder reassuringly, “Can you walk? Let’s find a place to talk in detail.”

“Yeah.”

Marcus also knew this wasn’t the best place for a conversation.

Coincidentally, the intense poison reaction in his body had somewhat subsided by now, giving him enough strength to stand.

Nan Yan supported him and hailed a taxi on the side of the road.

After getting into the car, Nan Yan asked, “Where do you want to go?”

Marcus remained silent for a few seconds before saying, “Let’s find a hotel first. I want to stay here.”

He wanted to go to Nan Yan’s current residence.

But considering that it might not be convenient, he would have to choose a different place.

Nan Yan nodded and instructed the driver to take them to the nearest hotel to the First Hospital.

She had to detoxify Marcus’s body; she couldn’t let him continue with such foolish actions.

Unbeknownst to Nan Yan, the sight of her and Marcus getting into a taxi was witnessed by Wu Yue, who had come to pick up Marcus.

Wu Yue had wanted to call out to them, but they got into the taxi before he could reach them.

Scratching his head, he quickly called Qin Lu, “Young Master, Miss Nan has taken Mr. Marcus away…”

Qin Lu responded, “Okay, I understand. You can come back.”

After Qin Lu finished speaking, he hung up the call.

How did the little girl know Marcus?

During their last meeting in the capital, they didn’t seem to know each other.

Or perhaps they did know each other, but they didn’t want others to know about their relationship?

Qin Lu had Nan Yan’s contact information displayed on his phone screen.

After a moment of contemplation, he decided against calling her.

The little girl had many secrets.

It was better to wait until she was willing to share them with him…

After completing the check-in procedures for Marcus, Nan Yan asked him to wait in the lobby while she took his luggage to the room. Later, she returned and took him to the First Hospital.

“Alice…” Marcus looked somewhat hesitant.

He didn’t want to go to the hospital.

Ignoring his resistance, Nan Yan dragged him outside and casually reminded him, “Out here, call me Nan Yan or Yan Yan, don’t call me Alice.”

If people found out that she was Alice, it would cause her a lot of trouble. Marcus’s expression changed, and he quickly nodded earnestly, “I understand.” “Don’t ever try to test poisons on yourself again. If you need anything, just contact me. Don’t do anything foolish.”

Nan Yan knew the profound impact her sudden “death” had on him.

Even his company would suffer a heavy blow.

His actions, however, had been too extreme.

“That was because I thought you were dead…”

Marcus muttered softly, “You’re alive, so I definitely won’t do anything reckless anymore. With you around, I don’t need to push myself to such extremes.”

Merck was the company they had jointly founded, and he couldn’t just stand by and watch it fall behind other companies.

Unfortunately, his talents were limited, and the gap between his level and Nan Yan’s was vast. There weren’t enough capable people in the company who could carry the weight. He had to take it upon himself…

For the past few months, he had been like a walking corpse, without a clear purpose.

Preserving their company had become his only wish, so…

Hearing his frustrated words, Nan Yan paused slightly and then said, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner that I was still alive.”

“It’s true. You’re too wicked…” Marcus playfully scolded her.

Nan Yan:

At the hospital, Nan Yan had already contacted Tao Qingming in advance and informed him that she needed to use the hospital’s equipment to thoroughly examine Marcus’s body.

Tao Qingming had arranged everything before her arrival.

As soon as she got there, she led them to the relevant area.

Meanwhile, Yin’s parents went to the school to find Nan Yan.

The headmaster, the class teacher for Class 4, and also Yin Yichen’s class teacher, all received them.

Both class teachers now knew about what Yin Yichen had done to Nan Yan. Seeing his parents, they naturally guessed that they wanted to privately settle the matter and mitigate Yin Yichen’s punishment.

To be honest, as teachers, even Yin Yichen’s class teacher didn’t want the law to lighten his punishment.

It was just too despicable!

It was due to Nan Yan’s ability that prevented him from succeeding.

If it had been any other girl without her strength, her life might have been ruined.

For students like Yin Yichen, there was no need to talk about giving him a chance to reform.

Locking him up and preventing him from harming innocent girls was the proper approach.

“Where’s Nan Yan? Have her come meet us.’

Mr. Yin’s demeanor was imposing and authoritative, using a commanding tone from the start.

This attitude didn’t seem to imply that he wanted to apologize to Nan Yan. Instead, it was more like he wanted to exert his authority.

The headmaster sat behind his desk with a slightly cold attitude, “Nan Yan left the school this afternoon due to some matters. Mr. Yin, if you’re looking for her, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow.”

Mr. Yin frowned, obviously not expecting Nan Yan to be absent from school.

However, this matter couldn’t be delayed. The longer it took, the more severe it might become. If it escalated, it might not be easy to clear his son’s name.

“Then give me her contact information.”

The headmaster shook his head, “I’m sorry, that’s against regulations. We can’t just provide students’ contact information to others.”

“I need to speak with her!”

“It doesn’t matter what you need. If you have something important, you can speak to her parents. Alternatively, you can discuss it with her class teacher.”

The headmaster maintained an official demeanor, “Coincidentally, Teacher Yu is here as well..”
