Looking at the old man's full head of white hair and his wrinkled, aged face, Shi Nian's tears fell even more fiercely.
Having endured so many hardships in her past life, she had almost forgotten how to cry.
But seeing her grandfather like this now, she couldn't stop her tears from falling.
Seeing her grandfather like this, she began to panic.
She was afraid something might happen to her grandfather.
The old man lovingly wiped away Shi Nian's tears, a kind smile appearing on his face. "Nian Nian, be good. Don't cry for Grandpa. It will make Grandpa's conscience uneasy."
"Grandpa is fine. He just remembered some sad things in the afternoon, and he got too upset and ended up like this."
Shi Nian still had tears in her eyes as she looked at her grandfather with suspicion.
How could things have turned out like this just from thinking about sad things?
She felt that her grandfather was hiding something from her!
However, if her grandfather was unwilling to talk about it, there was nothing she could do.
“Grandpa, Niannian has grown up. Niannian can share your worries and solve your problems now. If you encounter any problems, please tell Niannian and I will help you solve them!” Shi Nian held the old man’s hand and said earnestly, “Grandpa has taken care of Niannian and Shi Nian, and now it’s Niannian’s turn to take care of Grandpa!”
Hearing Shi Nian's earnest words, the old man felt even more guilty.
Shi Nian simply likes him and cares about him.
But back then, he took advantage of her for his own selfish reasons and unintentionally caused her harm.
He doesn't deserve Nian Nian's respect!
The more Niannian respected and cared for him, the more guilty he felt.
His eyes also reddened, and a thin layer of tears welled up in his cloudy old eyes, blurring his vision.
“Niannian, Grandpa is so sorry… Grandpa knew from the beginning that you were Master Shi’s grandson, but I hid you away, preventing him from finding you and preventing you from finding your family… Grandpa is so sorry…”
He ultimately lacked the courage to admit that he had used her to improve his luck.
He was afraid to see Niannian look at him with disgust and hatred.
Although he initially brought Niannian back with the intention of taking advantage of her.
But in their later interactions, he genuinely felt sorry for and cared about Nian Nian.
Although she wasn't his biological granddaughter, he treated her even better than his own.
He couldn't bear Nian Nian's hatred for him...
Let him be selfish one last time.
Even if she has to know the truth, then Rong Qing should at least tell her.
He didn't have the courage to say it.
Let him enjoy Nian Nian's respect and adoration one last time in his final moments.
“I don’t blame Grandpa. Living with Grandpa for so many years has been the happiest time of my life. Grandpa, you don’t need to blame yourself!” Shi Nian quickly said.
Although she also liked her maternal grandfather, she liked her paternal grandfather even more.
She didn't blame her grandfather at all for not letting her go to see her maternal grandfather sooner!
The old man's nose tingled, and tears streamed down his face.
The more Niannian acted this way, the more guilty he felt.
Niannian said that because she had developed feelings for him over the years.
If it were right after we brought her back, she might not have thought that way.
"Let's eat first, and after we finish, we'll go for a walk outside with Grandpa." The old man quickly wiped away his tears and changed the subject.
Throughout the entire meal, Shi Nian's gaze remained fixed on the old man.
The more she looked at the old man, the sadder she became.
After the meal, she helped the old man take a walk in the garden.
Ye Chen followed them from a distance without disturbing them.
His gaze fell on the old man, and he was also very worried.
What exactly is wrong with the old man?
