The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 453 - Chapter 453 Chapter 453 Tampered With

Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Tampered With Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Tampered With Lu Yichen looked at Zhong Niangyao as if nothing had happened, raised his eyebrows, “Don’t you think you should give me a reasonable explanation for this matter?”

“I am your boyfriend, yet now that you’ve run into trouble, you show no intention of informing me. Are you implying that I’m not competent enough as a boyfriend, which is why you don’t rely on me much?”

Hearing the danger in Lu Yichen’s words, Zhong Niangyao chuckled and shook her head, “This matter is just a trivial issue. I didn’t even take it to heart myself, let alone remember to tell you!”

“Besides, don’t you trust me? If I can’t handle such small matters, wouldn’t that be too weak?”

Lu Yichen looked at Zhong Niangyao and spoke seriously, “Yaoyao, I’ve told you, I hope that whether it’s a small or big issue, you won’t hide it from me. I am your partner, and I will become your husband in the future.”

“Everything that happens to you, I want to know it all.”

Looking at Lu Yichen’s serious demeanor, a trace of guilt rose in Zhong Niangyao’s heart, and finally, she promised, “Okay, I promise you that from now on, whether it’s a big or small issue, I won’t hide it from you.”

Lu Yichen nodded satisfactorily and then asked, “Did you find out anything after meeting with the accident driver?”

“Yes!” Zhong Niangyao smiled brightly, “At least, I now know who the mastermind behind this is.”

“Oh!” Lu Yichen raised an eyebrow, showing some interest, “The driver was so talkative, he actually told you.”

“No,” Zhong Niangyao shook her head, “I figured it out after seeing the driver. But, my revenge this time will not be so simple.”

After listening to Zhong Niangyao’s words, a flash of understanding crossed Lu Yichen’s eyes, “Who did it?”

“Li Jingming.” Zhong Niangyao’s face wore a smile, but the smile did not reach the eyes, “No, to be more accurate, it should be Chu Yixue, uh, Shen Yixue, who was doing the dirty work behind the scenes. However, she should soon be unable to stir up any waves. The Chu Family already knows about her identity now.”

While the two were speaking, the ringtone sounded, and sure enough, it was Zhong Niangyao’s phone that rang.

Picking up the phone and glancing at the flashing number on the screen, a trace of surprise crossed Zhong Niangyao’s eyes. She raised the phone and smiled, “It seems it’s better not to speak ill of someone behind their back. We were just talking about Shen Yixue, and now someone from the Chu Family is calling.”

The name flashing on the phone screen was none other than Chu Xu.

Upon answering the call, Zhong Niangyao’s voice was indifferent, “This is Zhong Niangyao.”

“Lady Zhong.”

The voice that came through the phone was somewhat weary, yet it was not Chu Xu’s voice, “This is Chu Ciwen.”

Hearing the name, Zhong Niangyao was taken aback, “What’s the matter?”

The Chu Family by now must have found the real Second Lady of the Chu Family. However, why would Chu Ciwen, as the biological father, seek her out at this time?

“Lady Chu, we have a favor to ask of you,” Chu Ciwen’s voice continued, his tone humble, “After thinking over and over, you’re the only one who can help us right now. That’s why I had Chu Xu contact you, I hope you won’t take offense.”

Zhong Niangyao raised her hand, calculated with her fingers, then her face turned solemn, and her voice became serious, “Where are you right now? I’ll come over immediately.”

Chu Ciwen hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly. Hearing the seriousness in Zhong Niangyao’s voice, he quickly straightened his expression, “We are at the Imperial Capital First Hospital right now.”

The conversation had barely ended when the call was abruptly hung up.

Looking at the darkened screen, Chu Ciwen was momentarily stunned. But thinking of Zhong Niangyao’s imminent arrival, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he handed the phone back to Chu Xu.

Chu Xu took the phone, looked at his uncle’s haggard face, and consoled him, “Uncle, don’t worry. Once Lady Zhong arrives, she will surely find a way to save my second cousin.”

If it weren’t for Zhong Niangyao, by now they might still regard that impostor as legitimate! Since Lady Zhong can even foresee such matters, she certainly can save lives too.

Chu Ciwen managed a forced smile, then wiped his face and headed toward the ward, his steps heavy.

Standing at the door of the ward, he took a deep breath, composed his expression, and then reached out to push the door open.

But suddenly, the door of the ward opened, and his wife rushed out in a hurry, continuously crying out, “Doctor, doctor, where are the doctors!”

Looking at his wife’s state, Chu Ciwen’s heart lurched.

On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Zhong Niangyao headed straight to the Imperial Capital First Hospital with a serious and earnest expression.

“What’s wrong?” Lu Yichen asked curiously, “Has there been some trouble?”

“That real Second Lady of the Chu Family, I’m afraid she’s in bad shape,” Zhong Niangyao frowned deeply, “Previously through Chu Xu, I calculated that after acknowledging her biological parents, that girl shouldn’t have such a short lifespan. But just now, I calculated again, and she is now in critical danger.”

Lu Yichen’s eyes flashed with understanding, “You suspect someone has tampered with something.”

“It’s not suspicion, it’s a certainty,” Zhong Niangyao spoke with confidence, “I can be sure that my calculation is impossible to be wrong. But now that girl’s fate has changed, someone must have interfered.”

Lu Yichen nodded, “We’ll know once we get there.”

Soon enough, Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao arrived at the Imperial Capital First Hospital.

Zhong Niangyao headed straight for the ward.

From a distance, they saw the Chu Family members waiting outside, with Chu Ciwen and Guan Liu’s faces bearing suppressed sorrow.

Guan Liu’s eyes were red and swollen, clearly having cried many times. Although Chu Ciwen wasn’t crying, his red eyes and tightly clenched fists clearly indicated his emotions were no less intense than Guan Liu’s.

“Lady Zhong, you finally arrived.”

Upon seeing Zhong Niangyao’s arrival, Guan Liu looked like she had seen a savior, stepping forward with a glimmer of hope flickering on her face, “Tongtong… she… she…”

Zhong Niangyao didn’t even glance at Guan Liu, her face extremely serious, she pushed her aside and headed straight for the ward, then pushed the door open.

Lu Yichen didn’t even spare the Chu Family members a look, following closely behind Zhong Niangyao’s steps, and together they entered the ward.
