Accident
Lin Ning died at 3:20:09 a.m. one day after nearly a month of treatment.
When Xu Chuwan received the news of Lin Ning's death, she was completely stunned.
"Hey, Wanwan, come to the hospital quickly..." Jiang Yan's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Xu Chuwan had a bad feeling and asked, "What's wrong? Is...is something...something happened to Grandma?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then someone said, "Yes...yes, please come quickly."
Upon hearing these words, Xu Chuwan's heart sank to the bottom.
Zhang Jiye, who had been sleeping nearby, woke up and saw Xu Chuwan staring blankly at him. He asked, "What's wrong, Chuwan? Why aren't you asleep so late?"
Xu Chuwan turned her head, her voice trembling slightly, and said, "Zhang Jiye, I... my grandmother has had an accident."
Zhang Jiye was also taken aback for a moment, then comforted her, "Wanwan, calm yourself down first, then pack your things to go see your grandmother, okay?"
Xu Chuwan nodded.
When they arrived at the hospital, they opened the door and saw Lin Ning lying motionless on the bed, as if she were just asleep.
Xu Chuwan slowly walked to the bedside, squatted down, and gently took Lin Ning's hand that was sticking out of the bed sheet.
That's strange.
Even though it's not winter yet, Lin Ning's hands are so cold that she can't warm them up no matter how hard she tries.
Xu Chuwan pressed Lin Ning's hand against her face, choking back tears as she said, "Grandma...Grandma, didn't you promise to see me happy? You...please don't sleep...I'm begging you..."
Xu Chuwan knelt beside Lin Ning's bed, and Zhang Jiye knelt with her.
Zhang Jiye held Xu Chuwan's hand tightly, hoping to comfort her.
Zhang Jiye and Xu Chuwan handled Lin Ning's funeral arrangements together.
Many people attended Lin Ning's funeral.
Xu Chuwan held in her hand the last words Lin Ning had written for her the day before he passed away:
Wanwan, don't be sad because I'm leaving. Grandma is so old; she'll leave sooner or later.
Your grandfather passed away early, and I've been thinking about him for over a decade. Now I can finally go and see him.
I'm so sorry, Wanwan.
Grandma couldn't see you happy, but I know Zhang Jiye will definitely make you happy.
I will watch from another world as our Wanwan wears a beautiful white wedding dress and marries that boy Zhang Jiye.
Grandma, I'll take good care of myself in another world, so Wanwan, don't worry about me.
But look at how thin you are.
After Grandma passes away, you need to eat more. If you lose any more weight, Grandma will be heartbroken.
Grandma's biggest regret was not being able to witness Wanwan's wedding in person.
Also, if you want to forgive your mother, then go ahead and forgive her; if you don't want to forgive her, then we won't forgive her.
As long as we can make each other happy, that's all that matters.
We deserve the best, and we deserve happiness.
It's a pity that we couldn't see our Wanwan's baby in person, or hold her in our arms.
I believe that Wanwan's child will be as beautiful as you in the future.
A chubby little face, grape-like eyes, and curved eyebrows.
I knew I would leave long ago. This letter was specially left for Wanwan by Grandma.
I hope I can be Wanwan's grandma again next time. Jiang Yan is such a child, she's not nice to you at all. Grandma feels guilty on her behalf for you.
Perhaps I haven't been a good mother, and I haven't taught her well enough. In your eyes, she shouldn't be a qualified mother. I apologize to you on behalf of this child.
Don't cry, Wanwan.
Xu Chuwan couldn't help but burst into tears upon seeing this. Zhang Jiye, who was standing next to her, pulled her into his arms, letting her tears soak his clothes.
Xu Chuwan sobbed loudly, and Zhang Jiye patted her back, wanting to give his girl a little more sense of security.
Xu Chuwan raised her head, her eyes brimming with tears, and called out his name, her voice still choked with sobs: "Zhang... Zhang Jiye."
Zhang Jiye gave a gentle "hmm," gazed at her tenderly, and said in a low voice, "I'm here, I've always been here."
“You…you say this world is so cruel, taking…taking my grandmother away…” Xu Chuwan couldn’t help but shed tears again as she said this.
“This world has always been unfair, but if you observe carefully, you’ll find that it’s fair to you in some ways,” Zhang Jiye said, looking at his girl.
Xu Chuwan looked up at him and said, "Zhang...Zhang Jiye, I...I only have you now."
He's all she has now.
Xu Chuwan only has Zhang Jiye left.
Zhang Jiye patted her back and whispered, "So from now on, I will stay by your side every day, until the end of time."
Xu Chuwan said, "Okay, then... then you can't go back on your word!"
Zhang Jiye nodded and said, "From now on, whenever you want to visit Grandma, I will come here to accompany you, okay?"
Xu Chuwan nodded.
Perhaps Lin Ning is watching them from another world.
Grandma, could you please bless Zhang Jiye so that he may be safe and sound...?
Because now, no one else loves me but him.
He's all I have now.
I only ask that Zhang Jiye live a peaceful and safe life; I ask for nothing else.
Grandma, I hope you are at peace in the other world.
Grandma, you and Grandpa should be looking at me right now, right?
Don't worry, I'm fine.
Grandma, I hope you and Grandpa are both well.
Grandma, I couldn't help but cry today.
You won't blame me, will you?
