Chapter 376 Xiaoyu is married

"Dean Li, you and Xiaoyu are close. What do you think I should do to get Xiaoyu back?"

Duan Zhu looked at Li Chongbai with longing in her eyes.

Li Chongbai sighed as he looked at Duan Zhu, “Duan Zhu, after all, Xiao Yu has been away from you for more than 20 years and has never had any contact with you. It is indeed difficult for her to suddenly become close to you now.”

“But Xiaoyu is a very good girl. She may not be able to accept it right away, but if you give her some time, I think she will slowly come back.”

"During this time, you should try your best to treat her well. She definitely won't mind what happened with Nan Qingqing, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to such lengths to save you."

Upon hearing this, Duan Zhu nodded, "Yes, if Xiao Yu minded, she wouldn't have risked her life to save me."

When she became a vegetable, although she couldn't move, she still retained a little consciousness. She could hear and feel how much Xiaoyu had sacrificed for her.

That's why she felt even more guilty towards Xiaoyu.

If she had listened to Zhuo Yuan and investigated the matter more thoroughly, or if she had met Xiao Yu earlier, none of the subsequent events would have occurred.

She almost lost Xiaoyu, her real biological daughter.

Seeing tears welling up in Duan Zhu's eyes, Li Chongbai quickly pulled out a tissue and handed it to her, comforting her, "Duan Zhu, wipe your tears. The most important thing for you now is to get well so you can go find Xiao Yu."

He paused for a moment, then added, "Besides, Xiaoyu is already married, so you might have another grandson or granddaughter by then."

Duan Zhu, who was wiping away her tears with a tissue, froze instantly. She looked up at Li Chongbai and, seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, her lips trembled.

"Dean Li, what did you just say? Say it again."

Li Chongbai was stunned. "Which sentence? The one about Xiaoyu getting married?"

Upon hearing the word "marriage," Duan Zhu's expression changed completely, and she became serious.

"Xiaoyu got married?"

Li Chongbai nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, she got married a month ago. She married into the Huo family. Old Madam Huo likes Xiaoyu very much and treats her very well. You don't need to worry." Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, there should be no need to deliberately hide the fact that Xiaoyu is the young mistress of the Huo family.

Duan Zhu clenched the paper tightly and gritted her teeth, saying, "Are you saying that Xiao Yu married Huo Junyan, who is crippled in both legs?"

Seeing that she seemed completely unaware, Li Chongbai suddenly felt a little lost and said, "Duan Zhu, it's possible that I've made a mistake. I'll ask her again later and let you know once I'm sure. You should rest now. Your health is the most important thing; nothing else matters."

"Your medicine should be ready by now. I'll go out and get it."

After saying that, he fled in panic.

Duan Zhu was left alone on the bed, her mind filled with the words, "Xiao Yu got married."

After much deliberation, she finally called Nan Zhuoyuan over.

Nan Zhuoyuan thought something had happened to Duan Zhu, so he rushed home as fast as he could.

"Mom, are you feeling unwell? I'll go and fetch Dr. Li to take a look at you."

"Zhuo Yuan, I'm fine, come here."

Nan Zhuoyuan, who was about to leave, looked at Duan Zhu with a puzzled expression upon hearing this.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Duan Zhu, her face grim, said, "Zhuo Yuan, I'm asking you, is Xiao Yu married?"

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhuoyuan knew he couldn't hide it any longer and told the truth: "Yes, Xiaoyu got married."

"When I found her, she was already married; she had married in place of Nan Qingqing."

"She married into the Huo family."
