After returning to the Gu Mansion, Lu Muyao left.
After he left, Qiao Yuxian called Huang Qi over.
As soon as Huang Qi arrived, everyone in the East Courtyard became tense, thinking Qiao Yuxian was unwell.
Originally, with Yan An missing, everyone was already in a tense state.
Now with Huang Qi suddenly here, the tension almost snapped, frightening them.
At the moment Huang Qi stepped inside, everyone in the living room froze as if someone had pressed the pause button, all staring at Huang Qi. It startled Huang Qi into freezing as well, not daring to move.
Qiao Yuxian told them she needed to discuss something with Huang Qi, assuring them she wasn't feeling unwell, which calmed them down, allowing them to move again.
She told them to go about their business and they went to the small parlor.
People coming and going could see them, but couldn't hear what they were saying if they didn't get close.
Qiao Yuxian first asked Huang Qi about the blood test results from this morning.
