Chapter 417 - A Sincere Request (2/2)
The old lady’s cloudy eyes were filled with tears. “Miss Nan, I didn’t want to interfere with your relations.h.i.+p with Sihan but Xue’er is too pitiful. You’re young and pretty and you didn’t know SIhan when you gave birth to Xiaojie. The two of you didn’t get together because of the child. If you leave Sihan, you will definitely find a better man, but Xue’er is different. She only has SIhan to depend on.
Nan Zhi was at a loss of what to do by the old lady’s unexpected actions. She only reacted and lifted the old lady up from the ground after a while.
“Miss Nan, if you don’t promise me, I won’t get up.” The old lady was not in good health and started coughing when she got worked up.
The old lady slowly stood up after Nan Zhi tried to help her up for a while.
She pursed her lips and there was no smile on her beautiful face. She looked at the old lady seriously. “Old Madam, the power to make the decision is not mine, but Mu Sihan’s. If he wants to choose Xue’er, I would never cling to him.”
The old lady paled when she saw that Nan Zhi was not persuaded.
She waved her hands, as if she did not want to say anything more. “Leave!”
…
In front of his adoptive father’s tombstone, Mu Sihan found Xue’er, who had come to pay her respects.
Seeing that she was safe and sound with only tears on her face, Mu Sihan frowned. “Why did you turn off your phone after leaving Grandma’s house? Grandma’s worried sick.”
He was going to the restaurant to meet Nan Zhi but halfway there, he had a call from the old lady saying that Xue’er was missing. He then turned back quickly to look for her.
“After coming out of the house, the car broke down and I let the bodyguard send it to the repair shop. I then thought of father’s accident, so I took a taxi to the cemetery to see him.” Xue’er took out her phone from her bag and pressed the screen. “The battery ran out and it turned off automatically, I’m sorry, Ah Han. Grandma must have been frightened by my last disappearance.”
