The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities
Chapter 118: Strange

Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Strange

Recalling the past, a tinge of regret flashed through Nan Yu’s eyes, her face displaying complex emotions.

"As long as the person who comes tonight is confirmed to be my senior sister, I will be able to ask her about what happened back then."

She clenched the plate in her hand until her fingertips turned white, and veins bulged on the back of her hand.

Song Yingqing placed a piece of osmanthus cake on her plate, comforting her, "Xiao Yu, don’t worry. I’ll confirm whether the Vice Chairman is your senior sister first. If it really is her, I’ll call you. This is to prevent her from running away the moment she sees you."

Nan Yu nodded, picked up the osmanthus cake, and gently bit into it, the sweet and cloying taste somewhat diluting the bitterness in her heart.

"Mm, I hope she is."

Soon after, there was a stir outside.

The sounds of restlessness emanated from the crowd.

"The new Vice Chairman has arrived!"

"Ghost Doctor is here, everyone, quickly, go to the entrance to welcome her."

"I heard that today’s ceremony is not just a simple welcome; Ghost Doctor is also scouting for a disciple to take under her wing."

"Yes, I’ve heard about that too. Later, there will be a small medical competition. Anyone who has the ability can participate, show their strength, and Ghost Doctor will choose the most suitable person from them as her direct disciple."

...

Hearing this, Nan Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly as she looked toward the entrance.

Meanwhile, Li Chongbai had come down from the upstairs without anyone noticing and stood next to Nan Yu.

"Xiao Yu, the reason I asked you to come, aside from wanting to recommend you to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, was to have you showcase your skills in this medical competition."

Upon hearing this, Nan Yu looked at Li Chongbai in confusion and whispered, "Uncle Li, didn’t you say she’s not the Ghost Doctor? And I already have a master."

Li Chongbai realized that Nan Yu had misunderstood him and hurriedly explained in a low voice.

"I didn’t mean for you to take her as your master. Although she’s an impostor, she really has cured many terminal illnesses abroad and is considered a miracle doctor. I hope you can demonstrate your skills in the competition. Perhaps exchanging ideas with her could take your medical skills to the next level."

Nan Yu understood that he was looking out for her future, hoping that she would get better and better.

She smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Li, I’ll consider it."

Li Chongbai nodded. "I am going out to greet her now. Later, I’ll introduce you two."

Nan Yu maintained her smile, "Okay, Uncle Li."

As he left, Song Yingqing put down her plate, "Xiao Yu, I’m going out to take a look and confirm if it’s her."

Nan Yu lifted her clear gaze, "Okay."

At this moment, the entrance was crowded and bustling; an impenetrable throng of people.

It was impossible to see the people at the door clearly.

Nan Yu tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and took several deep breaths in secret, alleviating some of the pressure in her heart.

And then she waited quietly again.

The area by the door remained abuzz with activity, with voices occasionally carrying over.

"Welcome Vice Chairman Gu."

"Heavens, this is my first time seeing the Ghost Doctor in the flesh!"

...

With anticipation, Nan Yu was about to lose her patience and go forward to see for herself, when she saw Song Yingqing come back with a frown and a confused look on her face.

Before Nan Yu could speak, Song Yingqing blurted out, "Xiao Yu, there’s... something off about this Ghost Doctor."

Nan Yu asked in confusion, "What’s off?"

Song Yingqing bit her lip and struggled to get the words out.

"She doesn’t have... a face."

The next second, everyone voluntarily cleared a path.

Nan Yu quickly turned her head to look, staring intently at the end of the path.

There, a woman wearing a red cheongsam walked in amidst a crowd of people.

But her face was replaced with a contorted mask.

It fit snugly against her real face, so seamlessly that the mask appeared to be her actual face.
