Chapter 610: Chapter 610 Yi Lin Visits
“Mom, I think you must have felt it too!” Zhong Niangyao looked at Baili Lele and began, “The three aunts seem to be very kind to you, but deep down, they all have their own agendas. Over the years, while you were in a coma, grandfather and the uncles spared no expense to sustain your life. Could it be that the three aunts really don’t hold any grudge?”
Zhong Niangyao’s words silenced Baili Lele.
She wasn’t unaware, it was just that she subconsciously wanted to ignore these matters. Now that Zhong Niangyao had laid everything bare, even if she wanted to escape, she couldn’t.
“Mom, I’m not saying that the Baili Family is bad,” Zhong Niangyao continued, “I just want to ask, after we find dad, would you choose to stay here or go back ho with him?”
“Of course, if you want to stay, I think grandfather and the three uncles would be very pleased. But as for the aunts, you should be ntally prepared.”
She wouldn’t force Baili Lele to make any decision, after all, it was Baili Lele who had to live her own life. What she could do now was just to give a reminder.
Listening to Zhong Niangyao’s advice, Baili Lele grew sowhat silent.
The attitude of the three sisters-in-law was not unknown to her, she just didn’t want to delve into it.
In fact, she could understand the thoughts of the three sisters-in-law. After all, over the years, due to her comatose state, the family had indeed wasted a lot of precious resources on her. The brothers had no complaints, but deep down, the sisters-in-law were undoubtedly uncomfortable.
Previously, she had deliberately avoided thinking about this matter. Now that Zhong Niangyao had brought everything to the fore, she could no longer avoid it.
She indeed needed to think seriously about where she should live in the future.
Zhong Niangyao rely wanted to clarify things for Baili Lele, not really forcing her to make any choices.
So, seeing Baili Lele fall silent, she didn’t continue talking. She didn’t disturb Baili Lele’s contemplation, but stood up and quietly left the room.
Upon exiting the room, Zhong Niangyao saw Lu Yichen waiting at the doorstep.
She couldn’t help but chuckle, “Have you been waiting here all this ti? You could have gone to do your own things, there was no need to wait for here.”
“It’s all right,” Lu Yichen shook his head and spoke blandly, “I didn’t have anything urgent to attend to, and you finished talking quite quickly!”
Zhong Niangyao stepped forward, grabbed Lu Yichen’s hand, and smiled, “How do you know? Maybe we would have gotten carried away and talked for a long ti, maybe even deep into the night! Would you still wait at the door then?”
“You wouldn’t,” Lu Yichen said flatly. “You wouldn’t talk to her for that long.”
“Oh?” Zhong Niangyao spoke with interest, “How do you know? That’s my mom! We haven’t seen each other for many years, maybe we’d have a lot to talk about?”
Lu Yichen didn’t answer but just gave Zhong Niangyao a deep look before retracting his gaze.
He knew Zhong Niangyao perhaps even better than she knew herself. Thus, he was clear that her patience with Baili Lele stemd just from their blood relation—it was unlikely they would engage in a lengthy heart-to-heart talk.
Seeing that Lu Yichen didn’t respond, Zhong Niangyao didn’t persist. She was joking, after all, and didn’t really expect him to respond.
Because of Baili Lele’s awakening, joy seed to envelop the entire Baili Family. These days, the servants in the Baili house, upon seeing their masters, all wore relaxed smiles. Naturally, they were in a good mood too.
However, the arrival of Yi Lin seed to disrupt this harmonious atmosphere, making it rather strange.
Sitting in the living room, waiting for Baili Hengyuan to arrive, Yi Lin experienced cold treatnt in the Baili Family for the first ti.
For a long ti, due to the matter of breaking off the engagent, the Baili Family had been retreating step by step from the Yi Family.
Before, every ti he visited the Baili Family, he was warmly welcod. When had he ever received such indifferent treatnt?
Still, as a Clan Leader and Family Head of a great family, Yi Lin, although uncomfortable, maintained his composure. Furthermore, he knew well that the reason he was treated coldly today stemd from Yi Huai’s despicable actions, which had adversely affected the Yi Family.
Thinking this, Yi Lin’s gaze involuntarily fell on Yi Huai standing beside him.
Indeed, Yi Huai had co with him today. So that the Baili Family only cold-shouldered him was actually showing so respect; they allowed Yi Huai to enter the house as well.
He had brought Yi Huai along today mainly to account to the Baili Family but also hoped to plead with them to forgive Yi Huai.
Previously, he had been troubled whether to save Yi Huai.
After much consideration, he decided to give Yi Huai another chance.
Yi Huai was the most talented of his children. Given ti, he might surpass even their ancestors in the Divination Skill.
At that ti, the status of the Yi Family would certainly rise significantly.
If Yi Huai were truly destroyed, their family might lose its standing due to losing such a talent. Then, other families might trample over the Yi Family.
Thus, he wanted to make his last effort to see if the Baili Family would show leniency.
Although he knew this hope was slim, he still wanted to try, even if it ant humiliating himself.
However, from the mont he entered and saw the behavior of the Baili Family mbers, he knew that Yi Huai’s issues were likely unsolvable today.
Standing beside him, Yi Huai didn’t look much better either.
Compared to a few days ago, Yi Huai now seed to have aged drastically. At this mont, standing next to Yi Lin, it was hard for outsiders to tell who was the father and who was the son.
Yet, even so, when Yi Lin decided to visit the Baili Family, Yi Huai chose to co along. Because if the Baili Family made such a decision, he might be able to recover imdiately.
