Chapter 271: Get Married Then (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Back then, there were really not many people who knew of her getting together with Lu Yanchen, not even her aunt and her husband.
Mo Jin and her grandma were the only two exceptions… Although, Mo Jin had always known about it. s.h.i.+ Guang had not hidden it from Mo Jin at all. However, grandma only found out about it by accident.
How old was s.h.i.+ Guang back then? When grandma first knew of it, she was upset and angry, and forbade her from seeing Lu Yanchen again.
However, Lu Yanchen went to visit her grandma a couple of times later on. s.h.i.+ Guang did not know what he did or said to grandma, but suddenly, her att.i.tude toward him took a stark change, and she was no longer against the two of them getting together.
Her only request was for s.h.i.+ Guang to work hard on her studies still.
Grandma really fancied Lu Yanchen, and would even allow him to stay at their old place during summer break.
At that time, the two of them would accompany grandma from day to night—life was peaceful and blissful back then.
It got to a point where grandma would even view and treat him as a grandson-in-law.
Grandma knew nothing about the two of them breaking up. Because she had just gone through a check-up and her heart wasn’t too good at that time, s.h.i.+ Guang did not want her to worry; and hence, did not tell her about it.
When grandma asked her where Lu Yanchen was, s.h.i.+ Guang lied that he had gone abroad to study.
She had thought that because it had been a long time, grandma might just forget about that person entirely, since he wasn’t going to call or visit her. But, each time they met, grandma would always ask about how Lu Yanchen was doing. As such, s.h.i.+ Guang could only come up with excuses.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought about coming clean with grandma, but she just didn’t know how to do it each time.
After chatting with s.h.i.+ Guang for a while, grandma, who was quite old, was getting tired.
s.h.i.+ Guang then had her take a rest.
In a garden in the hospital, s.h.i.+ Guang sat down with her aunt—Mo Ziying—on a bench for a chat.
“What did the doctor say about grandma?”
“Nothing much. She’ll be able to leave the hospital after staying a few days for observation. However, his advice was still the same—she had to take care properly, and mustn’t get too emotional.” Mo Ziying patted s.h.i.+ Guang’s hand tenderly. “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of grandma.”
“It’s tough on you, little aunt!” s.h.i.+ Guang hugged her. “Take care and rest well. Today, I’ll take care of grandma.”
Back then after her parent’s accident, the driver involved had escaped. Added with her sister’s mishap, her aunt had taken on all the fees herself.
s.h.i.+ Guang was nothing but a high school student filled with infuriation and hatred at that time. If not for her aunt, she did not know how she could have pulled through that difficult period.
Because she had rushed back and forth for a long journey today, her aunt had her head back to rest instead. But, s.h.i.+ Guang was reluctant, and wanted to stay in the hospital to look after grandma no matter what.
After all, her aunt had been looking after grandma for the past few days–she was the one who truly needed the rest.
That day, she only went home extremely late from the hospital.
The next day, s.h.i.+ Guang woke up later than usual. She wanted to make some nutritious soup for her grandma and head over to take over the duties from her aunt at the hospital in the afternoon.
When grandma saw s.h.i.+ Guang, she suddenly wanted to see her sister as well. Thus, Mo Ziying brought her over to the nursing home.
When the elderly woman looked at her unconscious granddaughter, all skinny and pale lying on the bed, she could not hold back the tears that streamed down her cheeks.
Mo Ziying did not let grandma stay for too long and brought her out soon. Along the way, grandma checked out the entire place—the environment of this nursing home was rather decent, and it was pretty affordable as well.
As she walked, she caught sight of a young man in his twenties ahead of her.
He was born with really handsome features, bearing an aloof yet cla.s.sy countenance. He was the type of man that girls these days would describe as an elite and seductively repressing type.
But that child… Why did he seem so familiar?
Had she seen him before?
As they walked closer to one another, she froze… He looked a little like…
Little Chen!
