Chapter 29: The Master

Ding Fan was casually chatting with Lin Qingqing when Xu Rui came over with a particularly troubled look on his face. She waved at Lin Qingqing, who knew Xu Rui wanted to talk to her about something, so she immediately stood up and walked over.

Ding Fan didn't mind, as he preferred being left alone in the corner without anyone bothering him.

"Sister Qingqing, something has happened at home, and I must go back immediately," said Xu Rui.

Lin Qingqing had known Xu Rui for quite some time and was familiar with her brash personality. She knew that Xu Rui would not be so anxious unless it was a real emergency.

"What happened? What's going on?" Lin Qingqing asked.

"My father suddenly fainted and was taken to the hospital. He's now at General Hospital, and I need to go there right away."

"I'll come with you," Lin Qingqing said, visibly worried.

"Sister Qingqing, I need you to stay here; I'll go back and check on the situation first," Xu Rui replied.
