The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Hide Multiple Identities-Chapter 317: Mother Must Awaken Within Three Days!

At this moment, no one could save Nan Qingqing, who had completely given up hope.

She walked over with a deathly pale face, knelt down in the center of the main hall, facing the doorway to Duan Zhu’s sickroom, kneeling upright.

Nan Yu watched the scene and specially reminded, "Eldest Young Master, I believe the Nan Family has upright family values and wouldn’t engage in mere show, right?"

Nan Zhuoyuan heard the insinuation in her words and replied, "Of course."

He immediately called for a butler.

"Butler Hu, I’ll have to trouble you to keep a close watch on Qingqing tonight. Don’t let her slack off. This apology and prayer for blessings must not involve any deception!"

Butler Hu, with a stern face and no trace of humor, answered, "Yes, Eldest Young Master."

He was clearly a hard character who showed no leniency.

Nan Qingqing, who had initially planned to kneel perfunctorily and look for an opportunity to slip away, was utterly despondent.

Nan Yu slowly stood up, looking at the kneeling Nan Qingqing and then at the upstairs sickroom.

Mom, consider these six hours of kneeling and apology as just an appetizer. Please bear with it for now.

When you wake up, I will make Nan Qingqing kneel before you and apologize sincerely.

Nan Zhuoyuan rose to his feet, following behind Nan Yu, "Doctor Li, let me escort you back to rest."

The two left shoulder to shoulder.

Nan Zhou looked towards the direction they had left and walked over to Nan Qingqing’s side, "Qingqing, just grit your teeth. The six hours will pass quickly. Think of it as doing this for mom."

"Once mom wakes up, I will definitely tell her about this. She will surely be moved."

"I’m also exhausted from the day, so I’m going to rest now. You hang in there!"

He made an encouraging gesture.

Nan Qingqing was unable to curse aloud but still managed to force a smile.

"Okay, Fourth Brother."

Nan Zhou nodded and also left the hall.

In an instant, the hall was left with only the kneeling Nan Qingqing and the stern Butler Hu watching her closely.

Back in her room, Nan Yu waited for the door to close before she dared to completely let go of the breath she’d been holding, no longer forcing herself to stay upright, letting her hands tremble uncontrollably.

Nan Zhuoyuan saw this and hurriedly supported her.

"Xiao Yu, are you alright?"

Nan Yu lay half-reclined on the sofa, removed the face mask and sunglasses, revealing her completely pallid face.

She tried to muster a smile, "Big brother, I’m fine, just a bit too exhausted."

Nan Zhuoyuan saw how hard she had worked to save their mother and his eyes filled with even more concern.

He poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Nan Yu.

"Drink some water first. I’ll have someone prepare something for you to eat."

After taking a sip of water and moistening her dry throat, Nan Yu quickly stopped Nan Zhuoyuan.

"Big brother, I’m not hungry, no need to have someone cook."

Nan Zhuoyuan felt an overwhelming guilt, "It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t gone back to the office to work, none of this would have happened."

Nan Yu consoled the self-reproaching Nan Zhuoyuan.

"Big brother, it’s not your fault. It’s Nan Qingqing and her devious schemes that are to blame."

When Nan Zhuoyuan thought of Nan Qingqing, anger surged in his heart.

"The moment today when I saw mom breathless, it truly terrified me. Thank goodness you were there, or Nan Qingqing would have succeeded."

Nan Yu said with a smile, "Actually, we should thank Nan Qingqing and Gu Chuxin."

Nan Zhuoyuan looked at her puzzled, "Why?"

Nan Yu, regaining some strength, sat up straight, a clear smile evident in her beautiful eyes.

"Originally, it would have taken mom a month to wake up, but because they poisoned her, I was able to use the Longevity Flower to save her during the critical moment, allowing mom to wake up earlier."

"If nothing goes wrong, mother will awaken within three days!"
