"I understand."
The girl lifted her eyes to the scenery outside the car window, a trace of complexity flickering in her gaze.
The phone screen was frozen on a photo, capturing a girl with chestnut-colored, slightly curly long hair, exquisite features, and an elegant deanor. In her eyes, one could find familiar traces.

"Celebrity Interview" aired as scheduled this weekend.
Early on, Aunt Li and Cuicui sat in front of the television, waiting to see Yun Ya appear.
Yun Ya had a surgery scheduled for the evening, a highly complicated cardiac bypass operation. The patient was a man in his seventies with a history of high blood pressure and diabetes, which added trendous difficulty to the procedure. Even for the most authoritative expert in this area, there was no guarantee of more than a fifty percent success rate. Upon hearing about Dr. Nyx, the family insisted that no matter what, Dr. Nyx must perform the surgery. More crucially, these relatives had co specially from Capital City, and their status was not sothing anyone dared offend. Director Su had approached Yun Ya with a lowered voice, imploring her to lead the surgery, dealing with a person they couldn’t afford to provoke.
Power has always been a fine thing. Yun Ya had previously set a rule that she would only take on two surgeries a week, yet there were always those who broke these rules. The schedule, originally well-arranged, had to be pushed back again. So patients couldn’t afford the delay. That week, Yun Ya broke her own rule and took on three surgeries.
After flawlessly completing the surgery and leaving Wei Qing to finish up, Yun Ya left the operating room. Overwheld with fatigue, she fell asleep in a chair in the break room.
"Wake up, sleeping like this will get you a cold." Wei Qing nudged Yun Ya, who startled awake imdiately.
Wiping her face, she had focused intensely for four hours, and her body wasn’t as resilient as it once was. She was barely hanging on.
"How’s the patient doing?" Yun Ya stood up, beginning to change out of her clothes.
"Everything is normal, but Director Su asked to tell you that the family would like to invite you to dinner. What do you think...?"
Yun Ya slung her bag over her shoulder and left, "You know my rules. Have Director Su decline."
"But Director Su said they’re quite influential, and I’m afraid..."
"How he explains it is his problem, I’m leaving now." Having said that, Yun Ya turned and left the break room.
Yun Ya walked around the ICU ward, and at the door of one of the rooms stood two n in suit and leather shoes, with the imposing air of bodyguards. Just passing by, Yun Ya attracted their wary gazes.
"Hmph, what kind of doctor is this Nyx, not even giving face when kindly invited to dine. Who does he think he is? He’s taking himself way too seriously." The Spoiled Lady’s voice reached a piercing eight decibels, loud enough that Yun Ya couldn’t ignore it even if she tried.
"Enough already, he has the skills to be proud of himself. Quiet down for , this is a hospital, don’t be yelling here." A commanding male voice chastised.
"Dad, this Dr. Nyx is clearly looking down on us. He just did a surgery on Grandpa; there are plenty of surgeons who could perform surgery. Does he really think he can be so arrogant in front of us? It’s like he thinks the Nangong Family is easy to ss with."
"Nangong Yan, shut your mouth." This was a young man’s voice.
"There may be plenty of surgeons who can perform operations, but only Dr. Nyx could operate on Grandpa and have the highest success rate. If you’re uneducated, you should read more books and stop embarrassing us. You have no right to question Dr. Nyx’s abilities."
"Nangong Fei, you..."
Yun Ya curled her lips slightly, this Nangong Fei, his eyes were not blind after all.
Leaving the ICU area, Yun Ya frowned in reflection. In Capital City with the Nangong surna, there seed to be only one family.

Online, following the broadcast of "Celebrity Interview," discussions were rampant. Yun Ya’s extensive knowledge, witty remarks, and her flawlessly beautiful face under the high-definition cara, as well as her composed and noble deanor, sparked a new round of public interest.
So praised her for being both beautiful and kind-hearted, so admired her exceptional scholarship and intellectual brilliance, so looked up to her in awe; such a perfect idol was indeed deserving.
How many guests could still chat rrily and respond with such ease under the verbal onslaught of Xiang Sheng? Yun Ya once again overturned everyone’s perceptions. Originally regarded as nothing more than a kind-hearted vase, she turned out to be a well-educated vase. She could have relied on her talent and character, yet she chose to depend on her looks—such capriciousness was unmatched.
After the program aired, Yun Ya gained countless fans. Compared to the just beautiful Yun Ya, this composed and learned Yun Ya was even more likable. The fan-created forums and Weibo support groups saw her fan base growing at an alarming rate.
