Chapter 420: Holding Onto Him

Nan Zhi looked at what was happening in the emergency room and her chest seemed to be held tightly by an invisible black hand.

Her body could not stop s.h.i.+vering.

How could the old lady die?

Nan Zhi was most afraid to see the scene of people dying.

After a period of time, the medical staff pushed out the old lady, who was covered with a white cloth. Xue’er kept following behind, weeping.

Nan Zhi looked at the man who was still kneeling in the room and walked towards him stiffly.

There was no expression on his usually unruly face, but his eyes were very red, his thin lips were slightly white from being pursed too tightly.

He knelt there quietly, as if he had been frozen in time.

Unmoving.

Unmoving.

Nan Zhi came up to him, reached out her hand and held his head in her arms, pressing it to her waist.

He did not return her hug or push her away.

The two of them were lost in time, one was standing, the other kneeling.

It was completely silent.

The sadness was spreading.

She held his head in her arms, her eyes blurred from the tears she struggled to hold back. “If you will feel better after crying, then just cry!”

After a while, the man stood up from the ground and looked at the woman in front of him. He held her in his arms with his clenched jaw on the top of her head and said sadly, “Grandma’s also gone now.”

His voice was hoa.r.s.e like it had been cut by a sharp knife.

Nan Zhi looked up at him.

His gaze was lifeless and of grief and sadness…

“I promised my father to take care of Grandma, but I only cared about work and was not filial to her.”
