Chapter 344: Half-Belief and Half-Doubt
Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei were both stunned after hearing Liu Zihang's introduction. Especially when they saw Zhong Nianyao's appearance, their faces became a little strange.
The masters in their impression are all old men with immortal looks, serious faces, long beards, and they look highly respected.
Zhong Nianyao, the girl before them, had a delicate face, even prettier than any other girl they had ever seen. If a girl like this were to say she was quietly sitting there reading a book or shopping in a mall, they would absolutely believe it. This was a girl who had been raised in a pampered environment.
But now Liu Zihang said that this was a very powerful master. No matter how they looked at it, they felt that it was a little unreliable.
However, they also knew Liu Zihang's character and knew that he would not play such a joke on them at this time.
"Auntie, uncle, I know you must have had your doubts based on Zhong Nianyao's appearance." Liu Zihang said quickly, "Don't be fooled by her appearance. She's really amazing."
"We don't doubt you." Pan Zimei looked at Zhong Nianyao doubtfully and said hesitantly, "This, Master Zhong, is it?"
"Don't call me Master," Zhong Nianyao raised her hand to stop him. "Just call me Miss Zhong."
"Okay, Miss Zhong." Pan Zimei agreed readily. "My mother-in-law has been acting really strangely lately. Can you help us take a look?"
Zeng Zhan, standing by, didn't say anything. He was half-believing that Zhong Nianyao would die too. However, his mother's health was really bad. Just like his wife had said, they could only try their best. Even if the situation got any worse, it couldn't get any worse.
After greeting each other, the group sat down first.
Zhong Nian Yao did not go directly to see Mrs. Zeng. She wanted to find out some things first.
The reality was there, and even a few minutes of delay wouldn't be a big deal. Therefore, although Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei were anxious, they also sat down.
Zhong Nian Yao glanced around and frowned slightly.
"Miss Zhong, what's wrong?" Pan Zimei had been paying attention to Zhong Nianyao and noticed the change in her expression immediately. She asked anxiously, "Is there something wrong in our family?"
"Please tell me about your mother-in-law's situation in detail first!" Zhong Nianyao shook her head and said directly, "Although I heard some things from Liu Zihang, it's probably not comprehensive. Only if you explain it in detail can I know what happened."
"Actually, we can't really explain what's going on," Pan Zimei said with a look of worry on her face. "Since last month, my mother-in-law's mood has suddenly become very bad, and her health has also plummeted. However, the hospital couldn't find any problems. But my mother-in-law's health just keeps getting worse."
After thinking for a moment, Zhong Nianyao said, "Did anything special happen before your mother-in-law's mood turned bad?"
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's question, Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei began to recall carefully, but they still had no clue.
"It may not be a big deal, it could be a small matter," Zhong Nianyao said calmly, "Even if it's a small matter, it's just a possibility."
"I remembered something and wondered if it was related." Pan Zimei hesitated.
"Speak!" Zhong Nianyao said directly, "Whether it's related or not, tell me first so that I can make a judgment."
Pan Zimei nodded and said, "That day, my mother-in-law and I took my son to the park to play. Then, when we were by the fountain, my son accidentally almost fell into the water. But luckily, he was fine."
"The fountain wasn't very high. My son was five or six years old. Even if he fell in, the most he would have done was get his clothes wet. But at that time, my mother-in-law's face changed drastically. I thought she was just worried about her grandson."
"Why didn't you tell me about this?" Zeng Zhan frowned, but didn't blame him. He was just a little confused. "Were you scared?"
Pan Zimei shook her head. "No, my son is fine too. It's just that Mom doesn't look very good. After she came back, she didn't even eat dinner, saying she had no appetite."
When she said this, Pan Zimei thought about it carefully and said hesitantly, "But it seems that my mother-in-law's mood has become a little bad since that day."
Zeng Zhan looked at Zhong Nianyao and asked, "Ms. Zhong, is this matter related to my mother's current situation?"
Zhong Nianyao didn't answer but asked, "Mr. Zeng, Mrs. Zeng, you took the old lady to the hospital for a physical examination. The doctor should have said something!"
Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei exchanged a knowing glance, and Pan Zimei finally spoke up, "Indeed, the doctor said at the time that my mother-in-law might have some psychological problems."
"But, recently, nothing has happened in our family, and the atmosphere at home is very harmonious. Nothing has happened to irritate my mother-in-law!"
"Whether it happened or not is not up to you to decide." Zhong Nianyao shook her head. "Many times, what you think is a small matter may be a big shock to the old lady."
"You're saying my mom has a mental problem," Zeng Zhan frowned, a hint of doubt in his tone. "We have no worries about food and clothing, and the atmosphere at home is harmonious. We've never had any arguments. My mom is a very optimistic person and has a good relationship with the neighbors. How could she have a mental problem?"
For a moment, his suspicion of Zhong Nian Yao deepened.
Could such a young girl really be a great master?
Zhong Nianyao also heard the suspicion in Zeng Zhan's tone, and she suddenly asked, "Mr. Zeng, you must have had an older sister! She died when she was very young."
Zhong Nianyao's sudden change of subject almost made Zeng Zhan unable to keep up.
Although he didn't know where Zhong Nianyao got the information from, he nodded and said, "Indeed, my sister died when she was five years old. My parents told me that she accidentally fell into the river while playing and drowned."
Zhong Nianyao nodded, then stood up and glanced at Zeng Zhan and Pan Zimei, "Let's go see the old lady now!"
