Lu Xingzhi wrapped her hand in his palm and gave her great encouragement and comfort most warmly.

With him around, everything would be fine.

He wanted her to do whatever she wanted. If she could get along with Madam Cheng, she could acknowledge her biological mother if she wanted to, but if she could not, he would take her away.

They were not far from Madam Cheng's ward, which was only about ten meters away. However, Jiang Yao felt that every step was heavy and difficult.

From the moment she stepped onto the plane, her heart had been beating violently. She wanted to try her best to control it, but she could not do that.

Master Cheng was in the ward with his wife. When he heard his youngest son running in and calling Jiang Yao a liar, he felt delighted.

He thought that his son was right—the Divine Doctor was a liar. He said that his wife would not wake, but she did.

Therefore, master Cheng did not berate Cheng Jinnian. Instead, he lowered his head and poured some apple juice for his wife.

After Madam Cheng woke up, her mental state was good if she did not get a seizure. In addition, she had been in the hospital for the past few days. Specialized doctors and nurses were attending to her, so she was taken care of very well.

When she heard her youngest son say that the liar had come, she looked at her husband. Since the man did not react, she wanted to scold her son. Just as she was about to speak, she saw her son looking at her with an aggrieved expression. She could not say anything.

Madam Cheng sighed helplessly. Anyway, she might not have many days left, so why waste it on scolding her son?

"Father, Mother, Young Master Lu and Young Madam Lu are here," Cheng Jinyan said before entering the room.

Madam Cheng heard voices and looked toward the door. The first person she saw was her eldest son. She smiled gently at him.

The next second, when the two people behind Cheng Jinyan approached them, Madam Cheng's smile froze on her face. She felt her heart skip a beat.

"She—" Madam Cheng raised her weak hand to touch her face. Then she looked at her second son.

'She looked like him, too much like him!'

"Mom, does that liar look like you and me?" Cheng Jinnian raised his head and asked her mother who was lying on the bed.

"Yes, they do look alike. I was shocked when I realized that for the first time," Cheng Jinyan said.

Jiang Yao had been staring at Madam Cheng since she entered the room. Their eyes met, and neither of them looked away. She saw the shock and pain on Madam Cheng's face.

Did her appearance remind Madam Cheng of the child who had been buried alive?

Lu Xingzhi stood quietly by Jiang Yao's side, accompanying her. If she did not speak, he would not rush her, nor would he say anything. He had brought Jiang Yao there, but she would have to take the next step.

Jiang Yao wanted to control her emotions, but for some reason, when she looked at Madam Cheng, who was awake and had so many feelings in her eyes, her heart began to pound.

She told herself that she was only there to repay Madam Cheng for giving birth to her. That was all.

"May I ask for your name, Madam Cheng?" Jiang Yao was the first to speak. Even though she already had the answer in her heart, she still wanted to ask her personally.

"Xinyou," Master Cheng said with a frown.

Madam Cheng said, "He named me Xinyou after I met him. I was Xie Qiuran, but I have not used that name in a long time. So long that I almost forgot about it. My father gave me that name."
