Old Madam Zhong directly retorted, "Our Yaoyao has high standards; she likes good-looking people, is there a problem with that? If you hadn't been attractive, do you think I would have given you a second glance?"
When she looked at Zhong Niangyao again, Old Madam Zhong changed her tune, "But then again, Yaoyao, besides appearance, what's most important is substance. If your grandfather hadn't been so gentle and considerate towards me, just his looks wouldn't have been enough to catch the attention of your grandmother."
Old Sir Zhong secretly rubbed his hands in delight. He knew it; his wife liked him best.
"Alright!" Zhong Niangyao raised her hand in surrender, "Grandma, I get it. From now on, I promise, I absolutely, absolutely won't pick men from the trash heap anymore."
"You can rest assured, Yaoyao," Old Sir Zhong patted his chest in guarantee, "In the future, Grandpa will definitely find you the most handsome husband."
"If we're talking about good looks, then the most handsome man in all of Beijing has to be Third Young Master Lu, Lu Yichen," Old Madam Zhong couldn't help but sigh, "It's just a shame—"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but sigh, expressing her regret.
"Let's not talk about him," Old Sir Zhong frowned, "No matter how handsome that Lu Yichen is, it's useless with his weak constitution; who knows how long he can hold up. Our Yaoyao certainly wouldn't choose someone like that!"
"That's enough, stop talking about it."
Old Madam Zhong saw Old Sir Zhong discussing the Lu Family's affairs so indiscreetly and promptly intervened, "That's the Lu Family's business, it's none of our concern."
After all, the Lu Family wasn't just any ordinary family; they were one of the top families in the Imperial Capital. No matter what Lu Yichen's health was like, it wasn't their place to freely discuss here.
Zhong Niangyao came up with an idea in her mind, "Grandma, I think I'm all better now, there's no need to continue staying in the hospital."
They weren't very supportive of Zhong Niangyao's sudden suggestion to be discharged.
However, in the end, they were unable to dissuade Zhong Niangyao and had to agree to her request.
When she returned to the Zhong Family mansion, Ye Leng'an saw the people in the living room and couldn't help but exclaim inwardly, such a gathering indeed!
Old Sir Zhong couldn't help but frown, "What is this all about? Do you not have anything better to do? Each of you is congregating here."
"Dad, we heard that Yaoyao was being discharged, so we came specially to welcome her," the eldest daughter-in-law, Zhong Minghao's wife Zheng Silin, stood up and greeted with a smile.
Li Yiqiu, who was still sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but snort coldly, saying nothing.
Zhong Minghao also stood up, looking at Zhong Niangyao with concern as he asked, "Yaoyao, how come you were discharged so quickly? Has the doctor given you a full check-up?"
"It's all been checked."
Old Sir Zhong looked at Zhong Minghao and Zheng Silin with a glint of satisfaction in his eyes.
"Humph, why let her be discharged at all! It's simply disgraceful," a discordant female voice rang out, immediately bringing silence to the living room.
"Meng Fan, don't speak recklessly," Zheng Silin glared at her daughter Zhong Mengfan and scolded, "Yaoyao is your sister; you should be happy for her discharge."
Zhong Mengfan felt aggrieved in her heart, but seeing the warning gaze from her parents, she didn't dare say anything more.
