Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Confess the Truth
Watching Zhong Niangyao’s anxious appearance, a hint of embarrassment emerged on Lu Yichen’s face, yet he still spoke up, “They’re fine, I just didn’t want them to worry, so I asked them to wait at home for now. If there is any news, I will notify them immediately.”
Previously, he hadn’t wanted anyone to disturb him. But now, he couldn’t exactly just say that directly to Zhong Niangyao. So, he beautified the situation a bit.
Zhong Niangyao, who understood Lu Yichen quite well, also noticed his unnatural demeanor and spoke half-jokingly, “Is that really the case?”
Lu Yichen touched his nose, sticking to his statement.
Seeing how Lu Yichen acted, Zhong Niangyao didn’t continue to press and after looking around, she somewhat helplessly said, “I think, maybe we should find another place to talk.”
After all, the room was a complete mess now, and staying here really affected the mood!
Lu Yichen had no objections and immediately had someone come in to help transfer the room.
When the outsiders finally came in and saw the condition of the room, they were truly taken aback. Although they had heard a loud noise outside earlier, they hadn’t expected the room to be in such a mess. The level of destruction was almost like that of a hurricane!
But peculiarly, amidst such mess, the area around the hospital bed was completely intact, which was even more strange.
However, shocked as they were, they efficiently transferred Zhong Niangyao to another room.
Still semi-reclined on the hospital bed, Zhong Niangyao’s complexion had already returned to its usual rosiness, showing no signs of the life-threatening condition she had been in just a short while ago, one which had prompted several critical condition alerts from the hospital.
In fact, Zhong Niangyao felt she no longer had any issues and could be discharged at any time. However, given the previous multiple critical condition notifications from the hospital, leaving now would be too conspicuous. So, she decided to stay in the hospital for a few more days before leaving.
Although Zhong Niangyao had awakened, the specific condition of her body was not yet clear, and it was unknown whether the days of unconsciousness could have left any sequelae.
Thus, Lu Yichen immediately arranged a full medical examination for Zhong Niangyao.
Only when the exam showed that Zhong Niangyao was in very good health did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After getting the results, Zhong Niangyao immediately requested to see Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong.
This time, Lu Yichen didn’t refuse and immediately sent someone to fetch them from the Zhong Family.
Within half an hour, Ai Lun had already picked them up and brought Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong into the hospital room.
The past few days had been endless torment for Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong. Although they could hear the news from the hospital every day, they had yet to see her with their own eyes or had any contact with Zhong Niangyao, which made them very anxious.
Today, upon hearing that Zhong Niangyao was awake and waiting for them in the hospital, they couldn’t sit still any longer and immediately followed Ai Lun to the hospital.
Upon opening the door and seeing Zhong Niangyao leaning against the headboard, Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong were so moved they almost burst into tears. They hastened to Zhong Niangyao’s bedside, looking at her with heartache.
“My darling!” Old Madam Zhong took Zhong Niangyao’s hand and repeatedly checked over her body, “You’ve suffered, look at you, you’ve become skin and bones.”
Zhong Niangyao touched her face and shook her head with a smile, “Grandma, you’re exaggerating, I’ve just lost a little weight, it’s good for dieting!”
She had been unconscious for the past several days, relying solely on nutrition from IVs, naturally losing some weight. But she was definitely nowhere near skin and bones.
However, in the eyes of the elderly, losing even a bit of weight is a big deal.
“Nonsense,” Old Master Zhong immediately scolded, “A perfectly fine girl, why lose weight! Being healthy is what’s most important.”
“Old man, what are you doing?” Old Madam Zhong frowned, “Yaoyao has just woken up, don’t be so loud, her body is still very weak!”
Hearing Old Madam Zhong’s words, a hint of regret flashed across Old Master Zhong’s face.
Zhong Niangyao smiled and spoke, “Grandma, I’m really fine now. I’ve just had a check-up, and I don’t have any problems now, my body’s also very healthy. Just need to stay here for observation a few days longer, then I can be discharged.”
Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong, hearing Zhong Niangyao say this, also let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Lu Yichen stood aside like an outsider, but clearly, he didn’t feel awkward at all, still watching Zhong Niangyao with a tender gaze.

It was actually Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong who felt a bit uncomfortable. Just a moment ago, they were so worried about Zhong Niangyao that they had ignored Lu Yichen. Now that they were assured there was nothing wrong with Zhong Niangyao, they also noticed Lu Yichen, who had been standing there all along.
Noticing the emotional shift in Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong, Zhong Niangyao turned to Lu Yichen, “You should go out first! I want to talk with Grandpa and Grandma alone.”
Lu Yichen frowned, visibly displeased, yet he obediently left.
He hadn’t forgotten that he was still pursuing Zhong Niangyao. This was not the time to slip up.
Once Lu Yichen left the hospital room, Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong breathed a little easier. However, they soon began interrogating Zhong Niangyao.
“Yaoyao, I’m asking you,” Old Madam Zhong glanced towards the door before speaking, “What’s your relationship with this Third Young Master Lu? Why were you together? Also, this trip you took, did you go with him?”
Old Master Zhong’s expression became serious, “Are you two dating? How long have you been together? Come on, tell us the truth.”
Facing the rapid-fire questioning from Old Master Zhong and Old Madam Zhong, Zhong Niangyao somewhat regretted letting Lu Yichen leave.
If Lu Yichen were still here, maybe Grandpa and Grandma would be a bit more tactful and not push so hard.
How should she answer them?
“Don’t think about dodging the question,” Old Madam Zhong spoke directly, “And really, this kind of thing, you can’t hide it your whole life.”
