Chapter 89: Seed of Suspicion

The moment Yu Miao saw the porridge bowl, she knew that something was wrong. She hurriedly put down the egg noodles and put on an anxious expression to wake up the sleeping Yu Ruo.
“Brother, Brother, didn’t you say that you can’t eat so early? Why don’t you listen to Mommy’s advice? You always like to use your health to do rebellious things?!”
Yu Ruo, who was sleeping well, was suddenly woken up by someone shaking and shouting. He sat up from the bed in a daze. Before he could figure out what was going on, he was stunned by Yu Miao’s words.
“Brother, are you feeling unwell?” Yu Miao sounded anxious.
“No, Yu Miao. What’s wrong?” Yu Ruo looked at her in confusion and shook her head.
Seeing that Yu Ruo didn’t say anything unnecessary, Yu Miao heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s good that you didn’t. It’s good that you didn’t. Brother, you can’t be as willful as today next time. What if you eat something bad and get food poisoning again? In the future, I’ll eat first and you can eat later!”
In the face of his sister’s serious tone, although Yu Ruo did not know how a bowl of porridge could cause food poisoning, he was still happy to be cared for by his sister. He nodded cooperatively. “I understand, Yu Miao. In the future, I will pay attention to not eating indiscriminately.”
“???”
Shen Chun felt that the siblings’ conversation was very strange. She clearly felt that they were not talking about the same thing, but why did she feel that they were talking about the same thing?
Ye Chang asked, “Yu Ruo, did you vomit after eating the porridge? Or are you feeling unwell?”
Yu Ruo thought that his good friend was worried that he would get food poisoning like the day before yesterday, so she smiled and shook his head. “Ye Chang, don’t worry. I’m fine this time. The situation which happened previously did not happen.”
The “previously” in Yu Ruo’s answer was very interesting. By a freak combination of factors, he helped Yu Miao clear her suspicion of lying.
It made everyone think that what she said about Yu Ruo not having an appetite was a matter of probability, not that Yu Miao was lying.
Hearing Yu Ruo’s answer, Yu Miao and Ye Chang heaved a sigh of relief.
Yu Miao was glad that her lie just now was not exposed, while Ye Chang was glad that Yu Miao did not lie because she wanted to avoid criticism.
“Brother, eat quickly. I specially went to the villager’s house to cook this for you. The villagers were very nice and heard me say that I wanted to nourish your body. They even specially added some nourishing ingredients inside.” Yu Miao handed the egg noodles to Yu Ruo.
Yu Ruo was already a little full, but looking at his sister’s eager gaze, he still didn’t say anything to reject her. He silently finished the bowl of egg noodles.
Yu Miao’s fans, who were originally in the wrong, immediately reignited their fighting spirit after this reversal. They began to protect Yu Miao and accuse Shen Chun of having impure motives for her previous words. She was clearly suspected of causing trouble.
Although the fans and netizens’ impression of Yu Miao was salvaged by Yu Miao in time, Hu Ying, who was also watching the live broadcast, felt a trace of dissatisfaction with Yu Miao.
After all, she was a daughter who had been raised by her side for more than ten years. Hu Ying’s understanding of Yu Miao was the same as Yu An’s understanding of Yu Miao. She could sense Yu Miao’s true intentions from her subtle actions and expressions.
Moreover, her third son, Yu Ruo, did not have the habit of not eating after he had stomach problems. Yu Miao’s previous words were clearly an excuse for her. This made Hu Ying wonder if Yu Miao really treated Yu Ruo as an older brother.
“Fourth Brother, do you think Yu Miao really knows some of Third Brother’s little habits, or are her words completely made up?” Hu Ying could not make up her mind. She nervously asked Yu Zheng, who was also watching the live broadcast beside her.
Yu Zheng and Yu Ruo also doted on Yu Miao very much.
Although his sister had said something about his third brother’s habit that they did not know, his third brother’s reaction and answer just now proved that Yu Miao was right, so he still chose to believe Yu Miao.
Therefore, Yu Zheng reached out to hold Hu Ying’s hand and comforted her. “Mom, Third Brother also admitted what Yu Miao said just now. This means that Yu Miao is telling the truth. Perhaps we don’t care about Third Brother as much as Yu Miao, so we didn’t know that Third Brother has this little habit.”
Hearing her son’s words, although Hu Ying was still a little hesitant, she still chose to believe Yu Miao in the end. “You’re right. I was too concerned and messed up. I’ve been too concerned about Yu Miao in recent years and neglected you brothers. I’m sorry.”
Yu Zheng wheedled and coaxed Hu Ying for a while, finally making her much happier.
However, once the seed of doubt was planted, would it not take root in the dark just because of a few words?
