The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot
Chapter 532 - Chapter 532 Chapter 532 Accepting Change

Chapter 532: Chapter 532 Accepting Change Chapter 532: Chapter 532 Accepting Change “You can hide it for a moment, but not for a lifetime,” Lu Yichen said calmly, “You can’t always wear colored contacts when facing them. Letting them know earlier will help them accept it sooner.”

“Alright!” Zhong Niangyao agreed to Lu Yichen’s reasoning, “Then I’ll go inside first!”

Lu Yichen nodded, then planned to accompany Zhong Niangyao inside. However, she stopped him.

“You don’t need to come in with me,” Zhong Niangyao said with a smile as she shook her head, “It’s getting late, you should head back and rest.”

Lu Yichen gave Zhong Niangyao a deep look, but in the end, he did not insist on escorting her inside and just silently nodded his head.

Upon returning to the Zhong Family, Zhong Niangyao, as usual, went to the living room to greet Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong.

The other family members were also in the living room at the time, and they were all shocked when they saw Zhong Niangyao walk in. They hadn’t seen her for just a few hours, but they didn’t expect such a drastic change in her.

To say it was a drastic change might not be quite accurate. She still had that stunningly beautiful face and an ethereal aura. However, the fiery red Red Spider Lily between her brows added a touch of charm to her already beautiful face, and her golden pupils involuntarily mesmerized anyone who saw them.

Despite the small changes, they all felt as if Zhong Niangyao had undergone a tremendous transformation. If not for her face being the same, they would have almost failed to recognize her.

Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong were greatly surprised by Zhong Niangyao’s appearance.

Zhong Niangyao quickly gave the prepared explanation she had thought of in advance, hoping to bluff her way through. However, she used a different excuse for her eyes, claiming that she was wearing colored contacts because she thought they looked prettier that way.

After hearing Zhong Niangyao’s explanation, Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong exchanged glances and eventually had to accept this reason.

“Actually, Niangyao looks quite pretty like this!” Zheng Silin said with a smile, “She looks absolutely stunning. If I weren’t older, I might even consider getting some for myself!”

Thanks to Zheng Silin’s words, the atmosphere in the living room soon relaxed.

Regardless of what they were thinking inside, they all laughed and chatted on the surface. For a while, the atmosphere in the living room was warm and harmonious.

Seeing this, Old Sir Zhong and Old Madam Zhong were the happiest. Being of advanced age, what they cherished most was the joyful gathering of their children and grandchildren.

However, at a place that no one noticed, Zhong Mengfan glanced at Zhong Niangyao with a particularly strange look. But when the others looked her way, her face was all smiles, with no hint of anything unusual.

Soon, Zhong Niangyao stood up, intending to return to her room.

Too much had happened today. Although a powerful force she accidentally acquired had healed all of her injuries, the day’s events had still left her somewhat tired. Now, all she wanted was a good night’s sleep.

Just as Zhong Niangyao had barely left, Zhong Mengfan also stood up to return to her room.

“Niangyao!”

Just as Zhong Niangyao was about to open her room door, a familiar voice called out to her, successfully making her pause her action. Turning around, she saw Zhong Mengfan standing not far away.

“Is there something you need?” Zhong Niangyao turned, looking at the uninvited Zhong Mengfan with polite detachment, “I’m rather tired and planning to rest early.”

“It’s nothing important,” Zhong Mengfan said with a smile, “I just think the colored contacts you are wearing look nice. I’m planning to buy a pair myself, so I wanted to ask you where you got them.”

Seeing the seemingly genuinely curious expression on Zhong Mengfan’s face, Zhong Niangyao suddenly smiled, “Such colored contacts are available in many eyewear stores. If you like them, you can go find some yourself. However, I’ve heard that the color intensity of everyone’s pupils is different, so the effect will vary.”

“Oh, is that so?” Zhong Mengfan nodded and continued, “Then I’ll go take a look tomorrow.”

“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll head back to my room to rest.”

Without waiting to hear if Zhong Mengfan had anything else to say, she directly opened the door, entered, locked it–a sequence of actions executed swiftly and smoothly.

Zhong Mengfan, standing outside the door, maintained a proper smile. However, when she looked at the door to Zhong Niangyao’s room, her eyes sank, and there was a flicker of indecipherable darkness.

In the days that followed, before the engagement banquet arrived, people around gradually grew accustomed to Zhong Niangyao’s transformation. Still, many would have a moment of distraction when they saw her stunning face.

Zhong Niangyao continued to attend classes at school every day. She considered herself a good student who wouldn’t skip class without a reason.

After class, Zhao Xuanglang stayed close to Zhong Niangyao, chatting nonstop.

He had also learned about the things Meng Rou had done to Zhong Niangyao. Hearing that Meng Rou had only half a month left to live, he felt no pity. Instead, he thought it was what she deserved.

However, recently, he had been constantly pestered by Meng Ruikai, which was a bit annoying.

Meng Ruikai had been trying to contact Zhong Niangyao but couldn’t find her, so he kept bothering Zhao Xuanglang instead.

“Boss, don’t you think Meng Ruikai has really thick skin?” Zhao Xuanglang complained to Zhong Niangyao while they walked, “After what Meng Rou did, he still has the nerve to want to reach out to you.”

“I think he’s asking for a scolding, more like it. Meng Rou should have been dead a long time ago. If it weren’t for you saving her before, she would already be gone. But now she even tried to kill someone to silence them, she truly deserves this fate.”

Watching Zhao Xuanglang express his indignation, Zhong Niangyao shook her head, amused, “That’s their family’s business; why bother about it so much? As for Meng Ruikai, can’t you just ignore him?”

Zhao Xuanglang nodded, “I’ll block all his contact information from my phone right away, and I’ll also let my house’s staff know to keep him out–‘Neither Meng Ruikai nor dogs allowed in.'”

At Zhao Xuanglang’s self-proclaimed brilliant solution, Zhong Niangyao couldn’t help but smile.
