Chapter 818: Conflict (25)
She only went along with her words for a while.
“Xiao Huan, don’t prioritize me so much anymore. You should prioritize other things more. I shouldn’t be the main character in your life anymore. Your number one should be something else. I’m already past my prime. To be honest, I don’t have many years left to live. Don’t let me affect your life.” Mu Huan thought too highly of her. She couldn’t stand it when anything happened to her. If she were to pa.s.s away one day, she would probably feel terrible for a long time.
“Granny…” Mu Huan was about to say something.
“It’s inevitable for people to die of old age. Death is everyone’s final destination. Not only am I not afraid of it, but I’m also looking forward to its arrival because I miss your grandpa so much that I can’t bear to think about it anymore. Xiao Huan, don’t be afraid of anything happening to Granny. Even if something happens to me, it’ll be a relief and a wonderful thing. The most important thing for a person to live is to look forward. The most important thing is to love yourself. Don’t think too much about anything else other than yourself.”
Mu Huan did not say anything and only buried her head in her grandmother’s arms.
She understood what her granny was saying. She also knew that her granny was sensing her emotions and that was why she was saying all these. Her granny might have wanted to talk to her in this way as well, but there were too many things that had happened recently. She did not know what she was thinking or how she was going to leave. Hence, she did not know what to talk about. She only wanted to hug her granny like this and just do so quietly.
It calmed her heart.
Seeing that she still did not say anything, Xue Hua did not say anything else. She was also a person of few words.
At noon, after her granny fell asleep, Mu Huan went to the dojo beside the sanatorium.
She had thought that no one would hurt her granny anymore after Matriarch Mu and Bai Xuexian fell. She had not expected Bo Junyan’s grandfather to do such a thing.
Although his grandfather would probably not do the same thing again, Mu Huan decided to hire bodyguards to protect her granny just in case. Hence, she spent a huge sum of money to get the security company to send some quality female bodyguards for her to choose from.
Other than knowing martial arts, Mu Huan chose bodyguards based on their character. Hence, she spent the entire afternoon choosing them.
As she did not want her granny to feel uncomfortable, she only chose two bodyguards. Mu Huan was very satisfied with their character and quick reflexes. With their skills and the self-defense drugs she had given them, she no longer had to worry about her granny’s safety.
After picking the bodyguards and having dinner with her granny, she rushed back to school.
She received a call from Mu Dongsheng the moment she reached school.
“Xiao Huan, come home quickly. I have something important to discuss with you. Something very, very important!” Mu Dongsheng spoke as if the sky was falling.
“Let’s talk over the phone first. If you want me to beg Bo Junyan for forgiveness, then don’t say anything. Bo Junyan isn’t back yet and no one is picking up the phone.” If this was something unimportant, then he shouldn’t say anything!
“It’s not about that. It’s an extremely important matter. Come back quickly! I’ll wait for you!” With that, he hung up the phone.
Even though Mu Huan could not think of anything that would be important to her father, she recalled that he had said that he had something important for her last time. What he had given her was something very important. Hence, after some thought, she returned to the Mu residence.
When she returned to the Mu residence, Mu Dongsheng was waiting in the living room with his cousin and his cousin’s daughter sitting beside him.
