Chapter 628: Chapter 628: Mother and Daughter Alone

"Is that so?" Zhong Niangyao scratched her head, then continued, "I actually think they are hiding something."

In the past, she had felt that the attitude of Black and White Impermanence was very strange. However, she hadn’t thought much of it then. Now that her body had acquired that extra power, her senses were much sharper than before, so she naturally felt that Judge’s treatment of her was unusual.

"Don’t think too much," Lu Yichen smiled faintly at Zhong Niangyao, his smile carrying a hint of reassurance, "whether they are hiding something or not, they ultimately mean no harm to you. Moreover, with time, many things will become clear."

"Oh," Zhong Niangyao looked up at Lu Yichen, her eyes filled with deep meaning, "Why do I feel like you are also hiding something from me?"

"Yaoyao, you just need to remember one thing," Lu Yichen’s eyes sparkled with an indescribable light, deep and filled with boundless affection, "I love you, always. No matter what I do, I will never hurt you. You just need to always trust me."

In those deep eyes that seemed bottomless, Zhong Niangyao saw endless affection, making her irresistibly indulge in them.

At this moment, she had completely lost all ability to think, merely responding instinctively, "Okay."

Instantly, the temperature in the room seemed to rise, even carrying a hint of ambiguous pink.

Zhong Niangyao only felt her heartbeat accelerating, her whole body feeling dizzy, her mind temporarily losing the ability to think, and her eyes and heart seemingly filled only with the person in front of her.

Looking at Zhong Niangyao in his arms, Lu Yichen leaned down and reverently kissed the mark of the Red Spider Lily between her eyebrows.

Feeling the warmth on her forehead, Zhong Niangyao felt her face stirring as well.

The atmosphere was just right, but it was suddenly interrupted.

A series of knocks came, awakening the delicate atmosphere between Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao. However, they quickly returned to normal.

He directly asked for the person to come in, and soon a servant walked in, stating that Baili Lele wished to see Zhong Niangyao.

Zhong Niangyao raised an eyebrow, stood up, and intended to go to Baili Lele’s room. Although she didn’t know what Baili Lele wanted, she could probably guess.

Lu Yichen also followed closely, intending to accompany her.

"I can go by myself," Zhong Niangyao said with a smile, shaking her head, "It’s time for some mother-daughter alone time."

As she spoke, she raised an eyebrow at Lu Yichen, her face beaming with a bright smile.

After giving Zhong Niangyao a deep look, Lu Yichen nodded, reached out, and gently patted her head before saying, "Alright, I won’t follow then. Go and come back soon."

Zhong Niangyao nodded, then left the room.

She soon arrived at Baili Lele’s room. Upon entering, she saw Baili Lele half-reclined on the bed, her gaze fixed on the door. Her eyes immediately brightened upon seeing her enter.

"Mom, how are you feeling today?"

Zhong Niangyao came to Baili Lele’s bedside, sat down, and after checking her condition, she said, "Your body is still a bit weak, but overall, you have mostly recovered. In a few more days, you should be able to get out of bed and walk around."

"Can I get out of bed?" Baili Lele’s eyes were filled with unstoppable joy, "That’s really great. I’ve been so tired of lying in this bed."

"It’s good to move around a bit," Zhong Niangyao looked at Baili Lele and continued, "but remember, absolutely not too much. Too much is as bad as too little."

It must be said, the Baili Family’s care for Baili Lele over the years could really be described as meticulous.

Although she had been comatose for so many years, the muscles on Baili Lele’s body showed no signs of atrophy. That’s why Baili Lele could get out of bed and move around.

Otherwise, a person who had been in a vegetative state for so many years, even after waking up, would need a long period of rehabilitation before having a chance to return to a normal life.

"I understand," Baili Lele’s face was smiling, and it was clear she was in a good mood, "I won’t force myself; no one desires a normal life more than I do."

Zhong Niangyao nodded, then asked, "Mom, did you want to see me about something?"

After hearing Zhong Niangyao’s question, Baili Lele hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Indeed, there is something I wanted to ask you, it’s..."

When she got to this point, she seemed hesitant, as if unsure whether to continue.

"It’s about Yi Huai, isn’t it!" Zhong Niangyao saw through Baili Lele’s thoughts and spoke up directly, "Just ask whatever you want. It’s not a big deal. Just ask!"

"Actually, I’ve heard, but I haven’t gotten confirmation," Baili Lele’s eyes held a hint of confusion, "I heard that Yi Huai is dead, is that true?"

Although Baili Lele had awakened, her body still hadn’t fully recovered. During this time, Baili Hengyuan had issued a warning at home, forbidding anyone from casually mentioning distressing matters in front of Baili Lele. If it affected her recuperation, he would not take it lightly.

Therefore, no one dared to tell her about Yi Huai’s death.

However, there are many things that cannot be hidden if one wants to. Baili Lele overheard some servants talking about it in private and thus found out.

She knew that even if she asked, those servants wouldn’t tell her the truth. Of course, if she asked her father or brothers, they also wouldn’t answer her, only telling her to rest well.

After much thought, she still decided to ask Zhong Niangyao.

"Yes," Zhong Niangyao felt there was no need to hide it and simply nodded, "He suddenly died a few days ago. Today, Yi Lin came to our doors with Yi Huai’s body, looking for trouble."

"Suddenly died?" Baili Lele frowned, "Then Yi Lin came to—"

After experiencing so many things, she could no longer call Yi Lin ’Uncle’. That Yi Lin was no longer the kindly uncle from before. Thus, now when speaking of him, she simply called him by his name.
