Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Zeng Family Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Zeng Family Liu Zihang had been missing, but Zhong Nianyao was enjoying the peace and set up her stall under Tongtian Bridge.
She still only read fortunes for three destined people each day.
Zhao Xuanlang seed to have nothing busy to attend to. Whenever he had ti, he would co over to help.
That afternoon, Zhong Nianyao had set up her stall as usual at Tongtian Bridge.
Zhao Xuanlang was sitting on a little stool nearby, chattering nonstop. As he spoke, the topic sohow shifted to the ng Family.
“Boss, you wouldn’t believe it, but recently ng Ruikai has been pestering for so reason, asking to arrange a eting with you. He wants to treat you to a al to thank you for saving ng Rou before.”
When Zhao Xuanlang ntioned ng Ruikai, Zhong Nianyao raised an eyebrow, “Oh, really? How did you respond?”
“I didn’t want to!” Zhao Xuanlang looked at Zhong Nianyao, trying to please her as he spoke, “I figured you definitely wouldn’t want to go, so I didn’t hesitate to refuse. Besides—”
He paused, his lips curling slightly, “It’s been so long since that incident. If he truly intended to show gratitude, he would have treated you to a al long ago. What is this now, really!”
Zhong Nianyao nodded, “If he approaches you again, just tell him directly that he and I are even now. They have already given compensation, nothing else is needed.”
“Understood, Boss!” Zhao Xuanlang agreed eagerly and promised, “You can rest assured, I’ll absolutely not let ng Ruikai trouble you.”
Watching Zhao Xuanlang’s righteous deanor, Zhong Nianyao almost twitched at the corner of her mouth.
Just then, Zhao Xuanlang’s phone suddenly rang. He answered the call, and his expression turned grim.
“What? How could such a thing happen!”
“I am with the boss right now! I’ll ask her right away.”
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Xuanlang turned to Zhong Nianyao, “Boss, that was Liu Zihang. He said there’s an urgent situation with his aunt and asked if you have ti to go over!”
Zhong Nianyao had already had a premonition when Zhao Xuanlang started ntioning her, and she nodded directly, “Let’s go now!”
Since there had been no destined individuals at the stall that afternoon anyway, it wouldn’t hurt to check on Liu Zihang’s aunt.
After packing up the stall, Zhong Nianyao and Zhao Xuanlang t up with Liu Zihang and headed to his aunt’s place.
On the way, Zhao Xuanlang couldn’t help complaining, “Liu Zihang, aren’t you being too hasty? If this is such a critical matter, why didn’t you ntion it earlier? What if the boss was busy today?”
Liu Zihang spread his hands helplessly, “It wasn’t on purpose! Actually, the person in trouble isn’t my aunt, but her mother-in-law.”
“My aunt’s mother-in-law is a very kind elderly woman, always smiling and good-natured. But recently, it seems like she encountered sothing awful. She’s been getting weaker by the day and hardly speaks anymore. They took her to the hospital for a check-up, but they found nothing wrong. Yet her condition continues to deteriorate.”
“Really?” Zhao Xuanlang scratched his head, “And that’s why you think it’s a supernatural incident.”
“It can’t be helped.” Liu Zihang said, “Both my aunt and my uncle are very worried but to no avail. My aunt even took a long leave to take care of her mother-in-law. But her condition keeps getting worse. Earlier today, she suddenly fainted at ho and was rushed to the hospital for ergency treatnt.”
“But after she woke up, she adamantly refused to stay in the hospital and insisted on going ho. My aunt and uncle are really troubled by this!”
As Zhao Xuanlang listened, he nodded, “It sounds like your aunt and her mother-in-law have a really good relationship!”
“That’s right.” Liu Zihang nodded and continued, “Grandma Zeng, my aunt’s mother-in-law, is a wonderful person. She treats my aunt as if she were her own daughter. She’s been equally kind to us younger ones. Soone as good as her shouldn’t suffer like this.”
During the conversation, Liu Zihang looked towards Zhong Nianyao, hoping to read sothing from her face. However, Zhong Nianyao’s face was expressionless, offering no clue to her thoughts.
Throughout the journey, the conversation was mainly between Zhao Xuanlang and Liu Zihang; Zhong Nianyao did not express any opinion.
They soon arrived at the Zeng Family ho.
After the housekeeper opened the door, Liu Zihang walked familiarly into the Zeng ho, but did not see his aunt and uncle in the living room.
Liu Zihang was puzzled, and the housekeeper quickly explained, “Young Master, both your uncle and aunt are in Grandma’s room, they’ll be out soon.”
Zhong Nianyao and the others had no objections and sat in the living room waiting.
It wasn’t long before a couple with haggard faces walked in. They were well-dressed, but their fatigue could not be masked, clearly showing that they had not been resting well for so ti.
“Uncle, Auntie,” Liu Zihang stood up and asked with concern, “How is Grandma Zeng now?”
Zeng Zhan shook his head and sighed without saying anything. However, the worry on his face indicated the situation was not good.
Beside him, Pan Zii looked equally worried and anxiously asked Liu Zihang, “By the way, Zihang, the master you ntioned?”
Zeng Zhan, puzzled, asked, “Zii, what master?”
“I forgot to ntion it to you,” Pan Zii turned to her husband and explained, “Mom’s condition is really bad. The hospital couldn’t find anything. So, I thought maybe it’s sothing unclean and wanted to find a master to take a look.”
“As things stand with mom now, I’m treating it as a last resort.”
Zeng Zhan did not say anything, just nodded.
Liu Zihang quickly introduced, “Aunt, this is my good brother—Zhao Xuanlang. And this is the powerful master I told you about—Zhong Nianyao.”
“Don’t be fooled by her young age; I’ve witnessed her incredible skills myself.”
Worried that Zeng Zhan and Pan Zii might not believe, Liu Zihang eagerly assured them of Zhong Nianyao’s capabilities.
