The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 815 - 814: My current focus is not on my career.

Chapter 815: Chapter 814: My current focus is not on my career.

Picking up the paper from the ground, Lu Mian turned in another direction and glanced at it.

She had seen Fu Yu’s braille books as a child and recognized the dot patterns on them.

Before she had a good look, Fu Yu hurried over with a bag and snatched the paper away in a fluster.

Lu Mian’s hands were empty.

She looked up somewhat absent-mindedly, her expression inexplicable.

On that piece of paper, it clearly read "Disclaimer, Estate Distribution" and other words.

She was a quick reader, and with just that glance, she saw these words, including the mention of the name "Lu Mian" within the content.

This uncle of hers had arranged for everything, even in the event that the surgery failed.

Worried that she would be implicated, he specifically wrote a disclaimer.

And he intended to leave all his inheritance to her.

The girl pursed her lips in cold silence, not saying a word, only bending down to pick up the notebook that was on the ground.

The notebook was puffily stuffed, and she thought Fu Yu’s braille pen was in there, planning to help him take it out. After flipping through it, however, she found only a key.

On the key was clearly engraved the words "Azure Bank."

Typically, one only has such a key when renting a safe deposit box at a bank.

Now with far better vision than before, Fu Yu stashed away the paper and then put both the notebook and the key back into his bag.

"I’m just being cautious," Fu Yu, noticing that Lu Mian was staring at him, explained uncomfortably.

Lu Mian turned her head and walked over, asking casually, "What have you hidden in your safety deposit box?"

"..." As Fu Yu stuffed the items away, he met the girl’s clear and icy eyes, and after a moment, he slowly uttered two words, "A secret."

"Alright then," Lu Mian smiled faintly.

——

Xiao Qimo and Lu Mian accompanied Fu Yu out of the hospital. Concerned that Fu Yu might not adapt to life immediately, Lu Mian let the caregiver follow him home to take care of him for a while.

No sooner had Fu Yu left than Du Changyi’s prestigious patient, the elderly gentleman who refused to disclose his true identity, arrived at the hospital.

The whole hospital was already buzzing with news of the surgery between Fu Yu and Doctor Ya Ling.

Therefore, Xiaoyang’s steps lightened quite a bit as he accompanied the old gentleman to the hospital.

In Du Changyi’s office.

Xiaoyang asked excitedly, "Dr. Du, I heard your hospital cured a patient with weak eyesight completely?"

Du Changyi’s face turned awkward, "Yes, that’s right."

This matter couldn’t be concealed; just asking any doctor would reveal the truth.

"As expected of a top medical institution in the country, your medical skills are far superior to others. Dr. Du, please arrange surgery for our old master as soon as possible. The cost of the operation is not an issue!"

As Xiaoyang spoke these words, the dignified face of the old gentleman softened a bit, also filled with anticipation.

"This..." Du Changyi became even more awkward, "I can’t arrange that for you two."

"Isn’t this a great joy for your ophthalmology department?"

Du Changyi looked away; he did have the opportunity to participate in this surgery before and could have witnessed the miracle. But had he not rejected Doctor Ya Ling...

He was filled with regret; who knew Doctor Ya Ling was so capable, and that the miracle cure was so miraculous!

Du Changyi had no choice but to briefly recount the situation. Xiaoyang certainly wouldn’t give up just like that, "Dr. Du, could you introduce us to Doctor Ya Ling then?"

Du Changyi: ...

He looked up at the prestigious old gentleman and gave a solemn nod.

His face, Ya Ling won’t refuse to give it, right?

After Lu Mian got Fu Yu settled, she originally wanted to stay a few more days, but Fu Yu, worried about her falling behind on her studies, kept urging her to return to Wucheng.

Her trip to Jinjing had taken up more than ten days in total.

The end of May was drawing near, and the college entrance exams were imminent.

Fu Yu was anxious for Lu Mian, who belonged to a group of students who should be burning the midnight oil, frantically solving practice problems, and memorizing knowledge points. But his niece was idly frittering time away, which was exasperating.

While urging Lu Mian, Fu Yu also specifically instructed Xiao Qimo to keep a closer eye on her recently, urging her to focus on preparing for the exams.

Xiao Qimo, following his uncle’s orders, swiftly took Lu Mian back to Wucheng, and even forbade her from making a detour to visit Yun Sang.

Lu Mian had no choice but to send Yun Sang a text message.

[Left.] Two very succinct words.

Yun Sang replied quickly: [...Sister, will you come to watch Brother’s final match after your exams?]

[Sure.]

——

Mo Nie dropped Xiao Qimo and Lu Mian at the airport, but he was still preoccupied with the acquisition of Hengzhong Real Estate. While Lu Mian was in the restroom, he quietly discussed it with Xiao Qimo.

As the most trusted and capable subordinate of "Mr. Mo," tasked with handling business matters in Jinjing, Mo Nie had committed himself fully to his work.

"Mr. Mo, the other day Ya Qiao acquired Hengzhong Real Estate, you know? And just around those few days, several other real estate companies nearby were successively acquired by a few well-known businesses. Those businesses have noses like dogs, sensing Ya Qiao’s moves and immediately following suit, afraid to miss out on a lucrative opportunity."

Mo Nie was quite disdainful of this; after all, Xiao Qimo was the first to take interest in the CBD area of Jinjing, always waiting for the right moment to make his move.

The perfect opportunity hadn’t come before Ya Qiao stirred things up, instantly sparking a trend of opportunistic follow-up investments.

"I admit, Ya Qiao has a good eye, targeting only the stocks with potential. His investments will surely be profitable. It’s not wrong for others to emulate that, but I always feel..." Mo Nie lowered his voice, speculating with great foresight: "Mr. Mo, could it be that Ya Qiao is deliberately targeting you?"

Xiao Qimo was holding Lu Mian’s black backpack in one hand and adjusting his glasses with the other, his demeanor relaxed and casual, showing little concern for business matters.

"Let them be," he smiled without a hint of competitiveness, speaking genteelly, "Right now, my focus isn’t here."

Mo Nie’s attitude grew even more serious, "Then are you planning to develop that project abroad?"

Xiao Qimo threw him a cold look, and seeing Lu Mian saunter back, he immediately set out a welcoming smile.

Leaving Mo Nie with a "Let’s go," he followed Lu Mian back to Wucheng.

Mo Nie: ...

Mr. Mo, could you please clarify where exactly your focus is?

Lu Mian was back at school.

Whether it was the senior or first-year students, everyone found it quite unusual.

Shouhao pointed at the countdown on the blackboard at the back of the classroom.

"740 days until the exams, that’s for us. The one beside it counting down 10 days, that’s for you." Shouhao knew she was exceptional, but even so, she needed to at least glance over her textbooks in advance. To excel in the exams, getting into Qing University and Jing University would be effortless, wouldn’t it be desirable?

"Lu Mian, you need to think this through and plan out these ten days."

Shouhao and Shouhao were unequivocally "impatient on behalf of the princess," worried that Lu Mian might inadvertently become a laughingstock.

Lu Mian stared at the countdown on the blackboard, pondering for a moment.

"Lu Mian, have you figured it out?" Shouhao asked.

Lu Mian nodded, speaking with a hint of regret, "Had I known, I would have come back two days later..."
