Chapter 315 Regret

When Zhu Yunchang, Ling Xuemei, and Ji Yanting arrived at the hospital, they saw two doctors and a nurse coming out of the ward.

Zhu Yunchang immediately had a bad feeling and hurried forward, "Doctor Zhao, Doctor Li, what happened to my father?" Doctor

Zhao and Doctor Li shook their heads and sighed, and said apologetically: "The old leader is gone..." When they got the news and came to rescue him, Mr. Zhu was already dying. They had tried their best, but they still couldn't save him.

Zhu Yunchang shook his head in disbelief, tears falling at the same time, "How is it possible? He was fine when I left, and he was still talking to me..."

He stumbled into the ward and saw that the white cloth had been covered on Grandpa Zhu's head. His heart sank suddenly, and his legs almost fell to the ground.

He gritted his teeth, trembling, and walked step by step to Grandpa Zhu's bed. With slightly shaking hands, he slowly lifted the white cloth, revealing Grandpa Zhu's miserable face.

"Dad... I brought my little sister here, wake up... Dad..." His tears kept pouring out, dripping on Grandpa Zhu's face.

Ling Xuemei's body shook and she almost fell.

Ji Yanting quickly reached out to support her, looking at her with concern, "Xuemei, don't be excited, be careful of the child."

Ling Xuemei shook her head, but her eyes could no longer hold back and became red.

She took a deep breath, raised her head and slowly walked towards the direction of Old Master Zhu.

Ji Yanting supported her worriedly.

Walking to the bedside, looking at Old Master Zhu lying silently on the bed, Ling Xuemei could no longer hold back her tears. She originally thought that she only hated Old Master Zhu, but now she realized that she also had some feelings for him. It was just that feeling was buried deep in her heart, and it was only at this moment that it was completely aroused.

She opened her mouth, but in the end she still couldn't shout out that word.

Zhu Yunchang reached out and wiped his tears, turned to look at Ling Xuemei, took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to her, "Little sister, this is what Dad left for you..." When he came to see his father before, his father gave him this letter and asked him to give it to Ling Xuemei after his death.

Ling Xuemei's eyes fell on the letter, and after a long time, she slowly reached out her hand and took the letter.

"Open it and take a look..." Zhu Yunchang said softly.

Ling Xuemei nodded, took a deep breath and opened the letter.

Her fingers trembled slightly, as if the letter was as heavy as a thousand pounds.

She slowly unfolded the letter, and what came into view were rows of words full of apology.

"My daughter, when you see this letter, I should have passed away. I'm sorry! I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a father these years, and you have suffered so much. I have also done so many wrong things, hurting you and Yaoyao. I don't expect you to forgive me, I just hope that you can live happily in the future and never be hurt by someone like me again. I'm sorry!"

Ling Xuemei held the letter tightly in her hand, tears falling down like a dam bursting.

Ji Yanting reached out and patted Ling Xuemei gently, silently comforting her. He knew that his wife was a person who valued love and friendship. Even though she didn't like the Zhu family on the surface, she still had some feelings for her father, Old Master Zhu.

Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun were about to return to their family compound when they received the news that Grandpa Zhu had passed away.

The two drove to Zhu's house and walked into the mourning hall, which was filled with a sad atmosphere.

Ling Yao saw Ling Xuemei with red and swollen eyes from crying, and felt a little uncomfortable.

Walking to the mourning hall with Lu Qingyun, Ling Yao bowed to the portrait of Master Zhu, and then walked towards Ling Xuemei, "Mom!"

Ling Xuemei slowly raised her head, tears rolling down her cheeks, she reached out and held Ling Yao's hand tightly, her voice was filled with tears: "Yaoyao, I want to forgive him..." She was full of resentment towards Master Zhu before, but at this moment, she decided not to hate him anymore and let go of the grudge in her heart.

"Okay." Ling Yao nodded slightly. Master Zhu had passed away, and whether to forgive him was no longer important to reality, as long as the mother could let it go.

Ling Xuemei turned to look at the mourning hall, her eyes filled with tears and a trace of regret, "Yaoyao, I didn't get to see him for the last time..." This was also an irreparable regret in her heart. If she could have gone to the hospital earlier, maybe she could have seen him for the last time.

Ling Yao patted Ling Xuemei's shoulder gently and comforted her, "Mom, don't be too sad, take care of yourself." She knew that Zhu Laozi's departure made her mother very sad, but life had to go on, and her mother was still pregnant.

"Yaoyao, help your mother." Ji Yanting was very worried about Ling Xuemei, she had been crying for more than an hour.

Ling Yao nodded and reached out to feel Ling Xuemei 's pulse.

After a moment, she withdrew her hand, "Mom's emotions are just affected a little, there's nothing else, don't worry, Dad." As she spoke, Ling Yao took out a pill and fed it into Ling Xuemei's mouth. Seeing that Ling Xuemei's complexion had improved a little, Ji Yanting was relieved. The funeral of Mr. Zhu was very grand. Major families in Beijing came to pay their respects, and even the military sent wreaths to express their respect. Amid the mourning of the people, Mr. Zhu was buried in the cemetery, ending his legendary life. After the funeral, Ling Yao accompanied Ling Xuemei back to the Ji family. Although the Zhu family's affairs have come to an end, Ling Xuemei is still in a very low mood. "Yaoyao, go back. Mom is fine." Ling Xuemei didn't want Ling Yao to worry about her, and she still had to go to school, so she didn't want to affect her. Ling Yao took Ling Xuemei's pulse again to make sure she was fine. "Mom! You must pay attention to your body and don't worry too much, otherwise it will be bad for the baby in your belly." "I know, you and Qingyun go back quickly, you don't have to worry about Mom, Mom is really fine, and your dad is here." Ling Xuemei urged Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun. Although she was in a bad mood now, she was not as sad as before. Ling Yao nodded and said a few words to Ji Yanting, "Dad! Qingyun and I will go back first. If mom has any problems, just call me." Ji Yanting nodded, "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of your mom." Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun left the Ji family and drove back to the family compound. Not long after they got home, they heard someone knocking on the gate. Lu Qingyun went forward to open the door. When he saw the person outside the door, he frowned slightly and took a step back, "Are you okay?" He didn't have any impression of the person in front of him, but since the other party appeared in the family compound, he should be a military family member.
