To save the common people, she sacrificed herself to Heaven.
Zhong Nianyao thought she was truly going to turn to ash, but unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes again, she had become the you...
Chapter 532: Accepting Change
"You can hide it for a while, but not forever." Lu Yichen said calmly, "You can't always wear colored contact lenses when you face them in the future! Let them know sooner, and they'll accept it sooner."
"Okay!" Zhong Nianyao accepted Lu Yichen's words, "Then I'll go in first!"
Lu Yichen nodded, and then planned to send Zhong Nianyao in. However, he was stopped by Zhong Nianyao.
"You don't have to come in with me." Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook her head. "It's getting late now. You should go back and rest early!"
Lu Yichen looked at Zhong Nian Yao deeply, but in the end he did not insist on sending Zhong Nian Yao in. He just nodded silently.
After returning to the Zhong family, Zhong Nianyao went to the living room to greet Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong as usual.
The others were also in the living room at this time, and when they saw Zhong Nianyao walking in, they couldn't help but be surprised. It was just a few hours since they last saw her, but they didn't expect that Zhong Nianyao would change so much.
To say she'd changed drastically wasn't entirely accurate. She still had that stunningly beautiful face, the same ethereal aura. However, the fiery red spider lily between her eyebrows added a touch of allure to her already stunning features. Adding to that golden pupil, it was a sight to behold.
Although the changes were minor, they felt that Zhong Nianyao had undergone a complete transformation. If it weren't for the same face, they would hardly have recognized the person in front of them as Zhong Nianyao.
Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong were both shocked when they saw Zhong Nian Yao's appearance.
Zhong Nianyao quickly spoke out the excuse she had prepared, hoping to get away with it. However, regarding the eye issue, she changed her excuse and said that she was wearing colored contact lenses. She said that she thought they looked better.
After listening to Zhong Nianyao's explanation, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong looked at each other and finally could only accept this reason.
"Actually, Nian Yao looks pretty good!" Zheng Siling said with a smile, "She's a real beauty. If I weren't so old, I'd also like to try it!"
Because of Zheng Siling's words, the atmosphere in the living room quickly became relaxed.
No matter what they thought in their hearts, they still smiled and talked. For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room was warm and harmonious.
Seeing this situation, the happiest people are none other than Mr. and Mrs. Zhong. As they are old, their favorite thing is naturally to have their children around them.
However, in a place where no one noticed, Zhong Mengfan looked at Zhong Nianyao with an unusual look in his eyes. However, when others looked over, her face was full of smiles, and there was no sign of anything unusual.
Soon, Zhong Nian Yao got up and prepared to go back to her room.
Too many things had happened today. Although she had unexpectedly gained a powerful force that had healed all her injuries, she was still a little tired after all. So, now she just wanted to have a good sleep.
Just after Zhong Nian Yao left, Zhong Mengfan also got up and returned to his room.
"Nian Yao!"
Just as Zhong Nianyao was about to open the door, a familiar voice called out to her, stopping her movements. Turning around, she saw Zhong Mengfan standing not far away.
"Is there something wrong?" Zhong Nianyao turned her head and looked at Zhong Mengfan who came uninvited, but with a polite look on her face, "I'm a little tired and want to rest early."
"It's nothing serious," Zhong Mengfan said with a smile on his face. "I just think the colored contact lenses you're wearing are pretty nice, and I'm planning to buy a pair, so I wanted to ask you where you bought them."
Looking at Zhong Mengfan, whose expression was natural and seemed to be purely curious, Zhong Nianyao suddenly smiled. "Many optical shops sell cosmetic contact lenses like these. If you like them, go find them yourself! However, it is said that everyone's pupil color is different, so the effect will also be different."
"Oh, really?" Zhong Mengfan nodded and continued, "Then I'll go take a look tomorrow."
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room and rest."
After she finished speaking, without caring whether Zhong Mengfan had anything else to say, she simply opened the door, walked in, and locked it, completing the series of actions in one go.
Zhong Mengfan, who was blocked outside the door, always had a decent smile on her face. However, when she looked at Zhong Nianyao's door, her gaze was a little heavy, and there was an incomprehensible darkness in her eyes.
In the following time, before the engagement party, the people around her gradually got used to Zhong Nianyao's changes. However, even so, many people would still lose their minds for a moment when they saw that beautiful face.
Zhong Nian Yao still goes to school every day. She considers herself a good student and will not skip classes as long as she has nothing to do.
After class, Zhao Xuanlang followed Zhong Nian Yao and kept talking.
He later found out about what Meng Rou had done to Zhong Nianyao. When he heard that Meng Rou only had half a month left to live, he didn't feel sorry for her at all. Instead, he felt that she deserved it.
However, recently, he has been pestered by Meng Ruikai and feels a little annoyed.
Meng Ruikai has been trying to contact Zhong Nian Yao, but he can't find her, so he can only keep pestering Zhao Xuanlang.
"Boss, isn't this Meng Ruikai you're talking about too shameless?" Zhao Xuanlang complained to Zhong Nianyao as they walked. "That Meng Rou did something like that, and he actually had the nerve to ask you for help."
"I think he's just looking for trouble. Meng Rou should have died a long time ago. If you hadn't saved her before, she would have died long ago. But now she actually wants to kill and silence her. She really deserves this retribution."
Looking at Zhao Xuanlang's indignant expression, Zhong Nianyao shook her head in amusement. "That's their family's business, why do you care so much? As for Meng Ruikai, can't you just leave him alone?"
Zhao Xuanlang nodded. "I'm going to blacklist all his contact information right now. Also, I'm going to tell my servants that Meng Ruikai and the dog are not allowed to enter from now on."
After hearing what Zhao Xuanlang thought was a good idea, he couldn't help but laugh.
