Chapter 579 Confession
If it were an ordinary person, facing such a powerful wire like Baili Hengyuan, he would probably not be able to hold on.
However, Zhong Nianyao was not an ordinary person. Her expression remained unchanged as she looked at Baili Hengyuan with a smile, "It seems that Chief Baili is very curious about my identity! Then you can rest assured. Since we are all sitting here to talk today, we must talk openly and honestly without hiding anything. As for my identity——"
"My biological mother is unknown, but I think you should know my biological father. His name is Zhong Mingxin."
"What?"
Baili Hengyuan suddenly stood up and looked at Zhong Nianyao with shock in his eyes. Then, his expression became a little complicated.
However, when he looked at Zhong Nianyao again, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement. His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but was too excited to speak.
In contrast to Baili Hengyuan's excitement, Zhong Nianyao appeared calm, even aloof. She continued to sit there, looking at Baili Hengyuan leisurely, and even leisurely picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
At this time, Lu Yichen also sat down again. He sat quietly beside Zhong Nian Yao, saying nothing, like a guardian.
The two of them sat there quietly, drinking tea, waiting for Baili Hengyuan to calm down.
After a long time, Baili Hengyuan slowly calmed down. After taking a sip of tea, he looked at Zhong Nianyao and spoke. His eyes were full of love, but his tone was a little cautious. "Child, what's your name?"
"Zhong Nianyao."
At this point, Zhong Nianyao naturally had nothing to hide and directly said her name. I think Baili Hengyuan would understand the meaning of her name after knowing it!
Sure enough, after hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, Baili Hengyuan muttered in a low voice, "This name is quite good, but that kid is really not a good person."
Zhong Nian Yao blinked and didn't say anything.
She vaguely knew that the boy Baili Hengyuan was talking about was probably her biological father Zhong Mingxin!
"Chief Baili." Zhong Nianyao spoke directly, "I think you should know who my biological mother is!"
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's question, Baili Hengyuan couldn't help but sigh, "Child, according to seniority, you should call me grandpa. Your biological mother is my daughter - Baili Leyao."
She had already had a guess in her mind, so when she heard Baili Hengyuan say it, Zhong Nianyao was not too surprised. She just nodded calmly, as if everything was under control.
Baili Hengyuan was a little surprised by Zhong Nianyao's reaction. He couldn't help but ask, "Nianyao, have you known about your life experience for a long time? Judging from your reaction just now, you didn't seem surprised at all!"
"I have such a guess. Otherwise, why do you think I would appear here?" Zhong Nianyao smiled calmly and then said, "However, Chief Baili, I am a little curious. Why did you believe my words so quickly? Aren't you worried that everything I just said was a lie?"
"You're quite clever, girl." Baili Hengyuan shook his head and smiled bitterly. "You don't look like your parents at all, but you—"
When he saw Zhong Nianyao's face, he couldn't help but feel dazed for a moment. "You don't know it yourself, but you look a lot like my late wife, your grandmother. You two are at least 80% alike."
It was also for this reason that when he saw Zhong Nianyao’s true face just now, he almost thought it was his beloved wife who had passed away!
When he thought of his wife, he couldn't help feeling sad.
He and his wife had always loved each other and had supported each other for many years. However, because of their daughter's incident, his wife died of depression a few years ago.
The wife's greatest regret before her death was that she didn't get to see their little daughter wake up. Sadly, her daughter remained in a coma, and no matter how many famous doctors he consulted or how many precious herbs he used, her condition remained unrecoverable. Ultimately, his wife died with regret.
Looking at this granddaughter who looked so like his late wife, Baili Hengyuan was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. He wondered if his wife had seen this granddaughter, would she have found hope, would she no longer be depressed, and would she have been able to live on?
However, all of this is now unsolvable.
A hint of understanding flashed in Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao's eyes. No wonder Baili Hengyuan lost his composure when he first saw Zhong Nianyao.
After thinking for a while, Zhong Nianyao spoke again, "Chief Baili, I——"
"Why are you calling me Patriarch Baili?" Baili Hengyuan said immediately, "You should be calling me Grandpa."
After hearing Baili Hengyuan's words, Zhong Nianyao's mouth twitched involuntarily, but she still called out, "Grandpa."
She felt there was no need to continue arguing with the old man over such a trivial matter. Moreover, according to Baili Hengyuan, it was normal for her to call him "Grandpa".
Hearing Zhong Nianyao's words "Grandpa", Baili Hengyuan's expression began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye. A long-lost smile even appeared on his face. He happily responded, "Okay, okay, my good granddaughter."
"Grandpa, what's going on with my parents?" Zhong Nianyao asked directly, "Or, can I meet my biological mother? I wonder if it would be convenient?"
Such a request made Baili Hengyuan hesitate. "Nian Yao, it's not that I don't want to agree to your request, but your biological mother's current situation is a little special."
"Why don't you wait until her condition gets better, and then I'll take you to see her!"
"Why bother?" Zhong Nianyao smiled and said, "It's because her current situation is special that I should go and take a look, right? Besides, how do you know that I'm just going to take a look? Maybe there's some way I can help her!"
Looking at Zhong Nianyao's appearance, Baili Hengyuan couldn't guess what was going on in the other person's head for a moment.
However, in the end, he still took Zhong Nianyao and the others towards Baili Leyao's room.
