Chapter 935 He Betrayed You
Suizi had held back her tears all day, but when she heard what the child said, she couldn’t hold back any longer and embraced Ma Dong with tears streaming down her face.
How can life be so cruel as to shear a child like a sheep?
"Don’t cry, I’m fine. Dad and Mom are very lonely over there, but I have you guys with me, I’m okay..."
Ma Dong reached out his little hand to pat Suizi.
Suizi felt even worse, her heart ached like it was being cut, yet she had to keep her spirits up and talked to the child about Grandma Ma’s condition.
For now, the doctors said surgery wasn’t an option; they could only rely on painkillers and traditional Chinese medicine to slow things down and improve the elderly woman’s quality of life in her final days.
There was no need to burden the elderly woman with the truth about her condition during her last days; it was best for her to be happy.
That night, Suizi talked with Ma Dong until very late, watching him try to act strong and grown-up, then breaking down in tears. Even when he cried, it was a silent cry, in fear that Grandma Ma might hear.
The next day, under Suizi’s arrangement, Ma Dong called Li Tieguang and reported the information Li Tieguang had asked him to find out.
Li Tieguang arranged to meet him when there was no one at home.
The meeting place was set in a dead-end alley not too far from Suizi’s home—it was chosen to avoid being seen by others.
