2530 Yu Xinlan Goes to Sister Nian’s Hotel to Watch the Show
She had heard from Yu Qingliu that the Empress was tortured by an old illness and often suffered from insomnia and night sweats. Her mental state was very poor.
She did not see the person through the curtains, but she could hear a faint cough from inside. The room was still filled with the smell of medicine.
Ji Ziyin remembered that some incense and herbs also had the effect of condensing energy and calming the mind, so she banked on this.
“What do you want this for?”
Although filled with doubt, Ji Xiao readily agreed. “I’ll get someone to check if there’s such a thing.”
Ji Ziyin nodded and hung up. She leaned against the dressing table. After some thought, she lowered her head and typed a message to Yu Qingliu.
[Elder Yu, you said that you would investigate the buyer at the auction that day. Have you found who it was?]
Seeing that the message was successfully sent, her suppressed emotions eased a little.
Ji Ziyin did not know why, but she had a strange feeling that Qiao Nian was also at the auction.

At a five-star hotel in the center of Country M.
The Yu Family’s car stopped at the entrance.
Yu Xinlan got out of the car, straightened her clothes, took her bag, and entered the lobby.
A few of her friends had already arrived.
Someone saw her and stood up to wave at her. “Xinlan, over here.”
Yu Xinlan noticed them and walked towards them.
There were resting areas in the lobby. These places were equivalent to half an open cafe. They could sit down and drink water and chat.
Yu Xinlan had arranged to meet her friends here this time. They were all second-generation heirs of the top circles in Country M, and their statuses were similar to hers.
These people usually played in the Beichen Club area. This was the first time they were meeting in a hotel lobby.
Yu Xinlan sat down. She had just ordered a cup of coffee when someone sized her up and asked in confusion, “Why did you think of coming here today? Do you have a friend living here?”
The others looked at her. Clearly, they also wanted to know why she insisted on having afternoon tea here.
Yu Xinlan’s coffee had just been delivered. It was not served in a mug but in a disposable paper cup.
Surprisingly, she did not mind. She slowly picked it up and took a sip. Then, she said with interest, “How can I have any friends living here?”
“Then why did you…?”
Yu Xinlan placed the cup on the table and said happily, “I’m just here to watch the show!”
The others did not understand what she was saying. They looked at each other, and no one spoke for a moment.
Seeing that the atmosphere was awkward, Yu Xinlan took the initiative to change the topic. “Speaking of which, my grandfather almost asked me to bring someone with me today.”
Although she said that Ji Ziyin was thick-skinned enough to stay at her house, her eyes looked past everyone to the elevator from time to time.
She really wanted to see the Miracle Doctor’s end with her own eyes.
“Who is it?”
“A person from the independent continent is staying at my house.” Yu Xinlan’s face was filled with disdain when she mentioned Ji Ziyin. “I heard that she’s from a branch family. She’s always putting on an act in front of my grandfather. I find it annoying. She’s probably another one who wants to climb the ladder.”
Sure enough, everyone’s attention was attracted by the gossip and shifted to this topic.
Yu Xinlan stopped talking upon seeing that they no longer asked why they came here for afternoon tea today. She basically listened to them. Occasionally, she would interrupt to lighten the atmosphere. The rest of the time, she would wait excitedly for the good show.
