Chapter 432 - Cui Luixian’s Ending X (2/2)
”Grandfather, please forgive me. Let me take care of you, okay?”
”Forget about it. I'm afraid that if you act impulsively and lose your head, you'll kill the Old Man who could have lived to a hundred years of age.” Xian Guiying reprimanded her. ”Are you done yet? Letting Uncle Li and the others watch you by pretending to be a white lotus, you even have the guts to ask them to send you to the hospital. You are really looking for death! Did you come here to act? There's a time for acting. Didn't you see how's grandpa now? Did you know he almost died on the operation table last night?”
”Grandfather...” Cui Liuxian continued to cry.
As Jiang Ruolan listened, she couldn't help herself from opening the door and entered, wanting to see how the Old Man was doing. However, when she opened the door, she saw Xian Jian kick Cui Liuxian away as she (Cui Liuxian) was about to pounce on the Old Man's bed.
”Grandfather...” Cui Liuxian continued to cry as she crawled up on the ground and wiped her tears away. She looked pitifully at Old Man Xian, who was on the bed with his eyes closed but was frowning as if he was annoyed by the noise. ”I know my wrongs. I will never dare to do it again!”
”The Xian Family gave you too many chances, but you didn't cherish it. You should have known your mistake since the first time you were given a chance. It's too late to regret now!” As Zhan An spoke, she turned around to check on the IV drips.
Afterward, she sighed and said, ”Zihao, quickly get someone to take her away. The Old Man is too weak now. He couldn't stand this annoying voice.”
”Grandfather... I know you're awake. Can you talk to me for a moment? Grandpa, don't ignore me. I really know my mistakes.”
Seeing Jiang Ruolan entered, Xian Zihao frowned and walked to her side, protecting her behind him. He didn't want to give Cui Liuxian another chance to attack her.
Jiang Ruolan wasn't that weak. What had happened last night was because of a moment of carelessness, but Xian Zihao's misgivings were natural, that's why she didn't say anything when he did that. Jiang Ruolan took the opportunity to look at the Old Man by the bed, then she carefully walked towards him, getting closer to the bed.
Seeing that it was Jiang Ruolan, Zhan An didn't try to stop her. She just looked at her, indicating that she had to speak softly.
Jiang Ruolan nodded and carefully bent over. Leaning against the bed, she whispered, ”Grandpa …”
As expected, the Old Man had not slept. When he heard Jiang Ruolan's voice, his eyebrows furrowed and he slowly opened his eyes. He turned his head with much effort and looked at her, ”Spoiled girl, are you all right?”
Jiang Ruolan's heart ached as she carefully held the Old Man's thin hand, ”Mn, I'm fine now. Grandpa, you risked your life to save me, how are you? Does it hurt? This is all my fault. You had suffered because of me.”
Old Man Xian smiled as if he didn't hear the sound of Cui Liuxian crying while holding tightly onto Jiang Ruolan's hand. The Old Man then thought of something and said meaningfully, ”Good child, don't blame yourself. Grandpa had let you down, grandpa owes you.”
”Grandfather, what are you talking about? Didn't you explain the misunderstanding? How can you owe me? This is all just a misunderstanding!” Jiang Ruolan comforted him in a low voice.
Old Man Xian just smiled and didn't explain anything. Hearing Cui Liuxian crying and begging for mercy, he sighed and waved his hand, ”Quick! Take Cui Liuxian out of here. The Xian Family can't tolerate having a person like her and this Old Man can't even afford to hurt her. Don't let me drive her away with my own hands, you guys handle it.”
After he said that, the Old Man closed his eyes. His entire body was filled with the exhaustion and powerlessness of someone who had just been wounded.
