Chapter 872: Countdown to Recovery
Even Rong Che was mentally prepared.
The door of the small kitchen opened, and when he saw Lu Chaochao, he still couldn't recover from his shock.
He looked straight at Lu Chaochao...
Take a sudden step forward.
The cold wind blew and brought him back to his senses instantly. He quickly took a step back to avoid it. But the astonishment and shock in his eyes could not be suppressed.
"So similar... so similar." It's so similar.
The "likeness" he mentioned does not refer to appearance.
Actually, the two people don't have much similarity in appearance. There is only some similarity between the eyebrows, but more importantly, there is a similarity in expression and temperament.
Mingming Chaochao had a chubby round face when he was a child. He was delicate and cute, just like the little girl under the seat of Guanyin.
The girl in front of him was extremely beautiful, and her temperament was even more extraordinary.
But when he took one look, a sense of faith arose in his heart.
This is what Chao Chao should look like when he grows up.
No wonder, no wonder Yunniang fell in love with him at first sight.
"Daddy." Lu Chaochao pursed her lips and bowed, smiling like she did when she was younger, with curved eyes and a bit of naivety.
More like it, this is more like it.
If he didn’t know that Cancan had specially found someone to play the role of Chaochao, he would have believed it!
"What are you standing here for? Chao Chao finally got home, why don't you ask someone to call them back home for dinner."
"Chao Chao, come and try the golden lotus cake made by mother." Xu Shiyun came out holding a white porcelain plate.
Rong Che looked at his wife again.
In the morning she was still lying in bed with a dull look in her eyes, her whole body shrouded in despair and on the verge of death, but at this moment she was radiant, as if she had been reborn.
The gray hair seemed to be covered with a layer of light, shining brightly.
Those eyes regained their former brightness, and the cheeks became rosy, as if injected with vitality.
Rong Che's eyes were hot.
He originally wanted to say something to comfort her, but now... he swallowed the words on his lips and didn't want to say anything anymore.
As long as Yunniang is happy.
Thinking of what the imperial physician and the medical practitioner had said, he could no longer care about anything else.
Yunniang's life has entered the countdown, even if the other party is fake, he will treat it as real.
"Okay, okay, Chao Chao hasn't been home for six years. I will send someone to notify them to come back immediately."
"Chao Chao has grown taller and thinner. It's not easy to get home. Let's have a reunion dinner tonight."
Xu Shiyun's eyes sparkled: "We have waited for this reunion dinner for six years, and it is finally complete."
"After you finish eating the Golden Lotus Cake, mother will take you back to your room. In the past six years, mother has taken care of your room every day and does not allow anyone to touch your things. It is still in the same condition as before. I knew that you would be able to come back..." She looked at Lu Chaochao and became infatuated again.
Lu Chaochao's heart, which had been silent for a long time, now felt warm.
He tasted the lotus cake affectionately and said, "Mom loves me, I know it all."
"It's crispy and has the unique aroma of lotus, sweet but not greasy, so delicious."
Xu Shiyun's eyes were moist, and she said lovingly: "Eat more if you like it. Whenever you want to eat, mother will make it for you." She looked at her daughter eagerly and couldn't see enough.
Wen secretly glared at her daughter, but couldn't help but sigh.
This little girl, I don’t know where she came from, but she learned it so well.
Not until Lu Chaochao finished half a plate of lotus cakes did Yunniang order someone to bring some almond milk. These were Lu Chaochao’s favorite things.
Xu Shiyun seemed to be in good health and there was no sign of illness at all.
She took Lu Chaochao's hand and talked to her about everything that had happened in the past six years, and then took her back to her own courtyard.
Lu Cancan followed step by step, not daring to leave at all.
She felt like crying but had no tears. The deeper she saw her grandmother fall, the more scared she became.
But now, it is no longer the moment for her to stop just by saying stop.
Lu Chaochao pushed open the door, and everything in the room was exactly the same as when she left. The teacups on the table and the bedding on the bed were all familiar to her, without a trace of strangeness.
Even the vase of wintersweet by the window was in full bloom.
Tears fell without any awareness.
"By the way, do you remember where you hid your treasure? I never moved it because I was afraid that you would come back and quarrel with me." Xu Shiyun joked with a smile.
Lu Cancan looked at her nervously, baby? What treasure?
Lu Chaochao was already thinking of an excuse in his mind, but then he saw Lu Chaochao walk to the wall and tap on it gently. After a few seconds, the sound of a hollow drum was heard.
She pressed lightly and a box popped out from the wall.
Six years have passed, and the sandalwood box is still the same as before. She gently pushed open the lid, revealing several pieces of jerky inside that had long since grown moldy and hard as stone.
She had just lost her teeth at that time, and Xu Shiyun didn't allow her to eat hard food or sweets.
She once hid secretly in the space, but Shanshan always exposed her.
She stole Zhuifeng's dried meat and stuffed it into a wooden box on the wall. Grinding teeth at night...
Lu Cancan breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Xu Shiyun turning around to get the new clothes, she asked secretly, "How did you know where to hide it?"
Lu Chaochao glanced at her calmly: "The wall is a little bulging."
Cancan screamed, she was so scared that she was almost breaking out in cold sweat. Fortunately, this sister is alert.
When the Lu family hurried back, Shanshan's eyes were red, like an angry little beast, with bloodshot eyes.
"I won't allow anyone to impersonate her!!"
"Those who pretend to be her will die!"
"Where does Cancan get the courage to find someone to impersonate her! I won't allow it. No one can live under the name of Lu Chaochao!! I won't allow anyone to replace her!!" Shanshan seemed to be out of control, and the Buddhist beads in her hand emitted a faint light.
He could barely control himself, the string in his head snapped.
He held on to Lu Chaochao's words for six years.
Now, it has reached its peak.
"I'm going to kill her! I'm going to tear her into pieces. I'm going to kill her with my own hands! How dare she pretend to be Lu Chaochao!!"
Shanshan's eyes were bloodshot and her rationality was almost invisible.
When Lu Yanshu saw his condition, his heart skipped a beat.
In these six years, Shanshan seems to have become a different person.
Ever since Lu Chaochao left, the naughty boy has become taciturn and indifferent.
There are often many inexplicable people around him, and Lu Yanshu knows that he is wandering on the edge of good and evil.
Without Chao Chao, no one knows how long he can be suppressed.
"Do you want someone else to replace her?" Shanshan looked at everyone with resentment.
Lu Yanshu looked at him calmly and solemnly: "No one can replace Chao Chao, and she is irreplaceable!"
"This is just a last resort to keep our mother alive. Whatever you choose, we will listen to you!"
Shanshan suddenly paused.
The boy's chest heaved violently, his eyes were red, and he clenched his teeth tightly.
"I won't cooperate with you in acting!" He left angrily after saying this.
After returning to his room, the turbid energy in his body almost solidified into substance. He twisted the Buddhist beads in his hand faster and faster, but still could not suppress the anger in his heart.
"If you don't come back, I will go back and be the overlord of my own area." He murmured in a low voice with red eyes.
In the shadow of the corner, a figure slowly condensed.
"Master, come back. No one in this world can restrain you anymore."
"If you don't come back, you won't have a chance when Hanchuan makes his move."
Shanshan stood in front of the window with her back to him.
During these six years, all the subordinates have gathered together, waiting for their master to return.
For them, Lu Chaochao, who had bound their master, is dead, and now is a good time to rise.
The master should obviously be happy, but he is clinging to this little world.
Countless attempts at consolation would result in severe reprimands from the master.
Lu Chaochao is the disaster of their master.
When she was the Zhaoyang Sword Master, her master was suppressed by her.
After much difficulty in reincarnation, he became Lu Chaochao's younger brother. It’s just right that I’m dead now.
This time, I thought I would return home disappointed.
But I don’t want to…
The boy's hoarse and low voice sounded: "Yeah."
She won't come back.
I should also...
Return to your place.
