Chapter 942 - 934: Unable to Decide
"There’s no need for us to talk like this, I’ve already discussed this with you. I hope after I leave, you can help take care of Liu Rui and Sisi. Although I know this request is quite unreasonable, right now, you’re the only person I can rely on," said Hu Jingtang.
Hu Jingtang viewed life and death with such tranquility, thought Xiao Yifei. Is he really willing to leave this world so calmly? But even if he isn’t, what could he do? No one has the power to decide life and death. Not even the doctors.
"Mr. Hu, don’t worry, I promise to fulfill your request to the best of my abilities," Xiao Yifei said sincerely. He thought Hu Jingtang probably didn’t know Liu Rui’s true identity, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so concerned about Liu Rui.
"By the way, I called Liu Rui earlier. He should be on his way now," Xiao Yifei said.
"I’m most worried about Liu Rui. I think living alone must be especially lonely for him. What if something happens to him in the future?" Hu Jingtang muttered.
"It’s fine. I’ve talked with Liu Rui a few times recently, and I think he’s doing well. He might just be a bit introverted, but I’ll take good care of him," Xiao Yifei continued. For now, he wasn’t worried about Liu Rui at all; Liu Rui seemed to be living quite well.
After a while, Liu Rui came in. Xiao Yifei could tell from his appearance that he must have rushed over. Upon entering the ward, Liu Rui first glanced at Xiao Yifei, seeking confirmation. Xiao Yifei hadn’t said much over the phone, just urged him to hurry to the hospital.
Seeing that his grandfather’s spirits were pretty good, Liu Rui felt relieved. Of course, these were his private thoughts. In Xiao Yifei’s view, Liu Rui was still the aloof, reticent Liu Rui, as if his grandfather’s illness hadn’t troubled him much.
Standing by the bed, Liu Rui’s eyes showed no emotion, and he said nothing. It was Hu Jingtang who spoke first: "Ruirui, from now on, you should listen more to your big brother Xiao Yifei. Be happy and don’t live such a burdensome life."
Before Hu Jingtang could finish his words, Liu Rui interrupted him, saying, "Grandpa, don’t talk nonsense." After saying that, he didn’t know what else to say, just stood there, feeling a bit awkward.
