Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Baseless Fabrications Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Baseless Fabrications Upon hearing this, Yi Huai nodded as well, “Uncle is right, that person was truly malicious. Fortunately, they have paid the price with their life, which can be considered justice for Le Yao.”

“Is that so?” Baili Hengyuan looked at Yi Huai, suddenly speaking up, “But what if the person who harmed Le Yao wasn’t that one?”

“What?”

As if he had heard something unbelievable, the shock on Yi Huai’s face was evident, “Uncle, what do you mean? Could it be that Le Yao wasn’t actually harmed by Qing Song?”

Yi Qingsong was the person who had initially cursed Baili Le Yao with his own life as the price.

Just as Baili Hengyuan was about to respond, a crisp voice interrupted them.

“Of course not, the so-called curse is nothing but an illusion.”

During the conversation, a pair of extraordinary and stunning individuals slowly walked in.

This time, Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen didn’t wear masks or any disguise; their facial features were so exquisitely perfect that they didn’t seem human, and their ethereal aura captivated all those around them involuntarily.

Yet, when your gaze fell upon them, you could feel a sense of oppression. It was as if your very stare was a desecration to them.

Watching the two people enter, Yi Huai felt a vague unease within his heart. At the same time, he wondered who these two individuals might be.

Just as Baili Hengyuan was about to make introductions, he was interrupted again by Zhong Nianyao.

“Let me introduce myself!” Zhong Nianyao spoke with a smile, “I am Baili Le Yao’s daughter–Zhong Nianyao.”

“So, you are Nianyao,” Yi Huai’s surprise was genuine, “How did you–”

However, he quickly smiled with relief and continued, “I never would have thought that the little infant from years ago has now grown into a beautiful young woman. If your mother could see you now, she would certainly be very pleased.”

“Yes, you’re right,” Zhong Nianyao nodded, then her tone shifted suddenly, “You can rest assured, my mother will definitely be able to see me now. She will wake up very soon.”

Upon hearing these words, everyone present was stunned.

Baili Hengyuan had not expected Zhong Nianyao to reveal such information. He had been hoping not to alarm anyone unnecessarily. However, since Zhong Nianyao had openly spoken about it, she must have her reasoning, so there was no need to hide it any longer.

“Are you saying Le Yao is going to wake up soon?”

After a moment of stunned silence, Yi Huai was visibly overjoyed, turning to Baili Hengyuan for confirmation, “Uncle, is it true what Nianyao just said?”

Baili Hengyuan calmly nodded, “Indeed, it’s true. Le Yao should wake up in a few days.”

“That’s really wonderful,” the joy on Yi Huai’s face seemed genuine, “Uncle, Le Yao is finally going to wake up, she’s finally going to be all right.”

Baili Hengyuan nodded, “It is indeed the blessing of the heavens; after so many years, Le Yao is finally going to wake up.”

Yi Huai was overjoyed, but then, as if something occurred to him, he suddenly asked, “Uncle, when I asked you earlier, didn’t you say that there hadn’t been any changes with Le Yao lately?”

“This–” Baili Hengyuan was momentarily at a loss for words.

“Grandfather is just being cautious so as not to raise any alarms,” Zhong Nianyao explained with a smile, “After all, my mother hasn’t woken up yet. If the hidden antagonist knew about it, they might do something unexpected.”

“Hidden antagonist?” Yi Huai looked confused, turning to Baili Hengyuan, “Uncle, what exactly is going on? Earlier, you also said that Le Yao’s condition wasn’t caused by a curse, right? What do I not know here?”

As he spoke, a trace of sadness could be seen on his face, “Uncle, you are keeping me out of the loop, aren’t you? But I can hardly blame you, after all, I’m just an outsider.”

“Yi Huai, you’re really overthinking things,” Baili Hengyuan said with a smile, shaking his head, “If we really considered you an outsider, we wouldn’t have let you know the true situation with Le Yao today.”

“It’s just that we still don’t know who the hidden antagonist is, so we are being a bit more cautious,” Zhong Nianyao said with a half-smile, looking at Yi Huai, “Uncle Yi, I don’t think you’d be upset over such a small matter, right? Everything we’ve done is just for the safety of my mother.”

With things said to such an extent, if Yi Huai were still angry, it would be quite unreasonable.

He sighed helplessly, “I’m not really angry, I’m just worried about Le Yao. By the way, you mentioned Le Yao wasn’t cursed, so what is going on?”

“Oh, it’s nothing serious,” Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, “Somehow there was a strange power draining vitality from my mother’s body. But it’s been resolved now.”

“That’s a relief,” Yi Huai visibly relaxed, then asked, “May I know which master physician was so skilled as to identify and solve the problem?”

“Here–”

Zhong Nianyao pointed to Lu Yichen by her side and introduced with a smile, “This is my fiance, and it was he who diagnosed and solved the problem with my mother.”

Yi Huai’s gaze fell on Lu Yichen, and before he could speak, he felt an icy chill, as if he had been plunged into icy water in the dead of winter.

Though Lu Yichen was simply a young man, a junior, Yi Huai felt an immense pressure emanating from him, as if Lu Yichen was a born emperor. In his presence, Yi Huai could do nothing but bow his head in submission.

No, perhaps he didn’t even have the right to submit. In Lu Yichen’s eyes, he might be no more than a contemptible ant, easily crushed at a whim.

Gradually, Yi Huai found it difficult to breathe. Even in the presence of the man named Lu Yichen, he felt an urge to flee.

“Yi Huai, what’s wrong?”

Baili Hengyuan patted Yi Huai’s shoulder, seeming to snap him back to reality.

Yi Huai’s complexion was pale, “It’s nothing, I’m just surprised that someone so young could be so capable. Truly, the younger generation is to be feared, right?”

“Ha ha, then I will thank Uncle Yi on behalf of Yichen for your praise!” Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, “Yichen not only healed my mother but also punished that hidden antagonist!”

“What?” Yi Huai’s voice rose with surprise, but seeing everyone looking at him, he embarrassedly laughed and said, “I’m just a little confused!”
