Chapter 1471: Persistence is too painful
Nan Nan has a shallow family relationship, and so does he.
In this life, no matter how much wealth, fame, and power he has, he still has no relatives around him. The appearance of Nan Nan filled this blank in his life.
He has lived for eighty years, but only in the ten years after accepting Qiao Nan as his apprentice, did he live the most enjoyable life.
Mr. Lin always felt that he had finally gritted his teeth and endured the good days of happiness, so how could he "leave" in the blink of an eye?
Every time he did not let Qiao Nan and the three children come into the house to see him, and saw the sad expressions on the faces of Qiao Nan, mother and children, the person who felt more sad was Mr. Lin. As soon as Qiao Nan and her son left, Elder Lin locked himself in the room. Even when his aunt called him, he refused to open the door.
Even though Elder Lin had prepared himself mentally, when he really spoke to Zhai Sheng, his heart felt like it was cut by a knife. It hurt so much: "Zhai Sheng, I'm leaving Nan Nan in your care. If you don't take good care of Nan Nan and let Nan Nan suffer, I won't let you go."
He no longer had the ability to continue this protection. No matter how heartbroken and reluctant he was, Elder Lin could only pass this sweet burden to Zhai Sheng's shoulders.
"What disease?" Zhai Sheng did not answer, but Lin Yuankang knew that Zhai Sheng had agreed. After all, he entrusted him with Zhai Sheng's own wife and biological children. Looking at Elder Lin's skinny body, Zhai Sheng closed his eyes and asked in a dark tone.
"Gastric cancer." Facing his incurable disease, Elder Lin answered very calmly: "It's in the late stage, there's no cure."
"Why is this happening? Wasn't it discovered earlier?" Zhai Sheng knew that if it was in the early or middle stages, it could actually be cured.
Elder Lin was now able to talk to Zhai Sheng calmly about his health problems: "It was discovered earlier." With Qiao Nan as his apprentice and Sanbao as his three lovely little apprentices, Elder Lin felt that his life was bright and sunny, and his days were getting better and better.
Once a person has a goal, he will naturally cherish his life.
Knowing that he was getting old, his body parts would probably have problems and he would need to repair them from time to time to ensure his longevity and to be with Qiao Nan and her two children for a longer time, Lin Yuankang was very health-conscious and went to the hospital for a physical examination from time to time.
In fact, the doctor first discovered that there was something wrong with Lin's stomach more than four years ago, which was the last time Lin went abroad for the country and was protected by Peng Yu.
That time, Lin not only completed the task assigned to him by the country, but also went to confirm his physical condition. After getting the same answer in the end, Lin bought a treatment plan from a foreign doctor and ran back to China to have a domestic hospital treat him.
At that time, Lin was only suffering from mid-stage gastric cancer.
As long as the lesion was removed and the tumor did not recur, Lin's disease could be considered cured.
After the operation, the doctor observed Mr. Lin for half a year and gave him an answer that he would recover. But the doctor reminded Mr. Lin that even if he recovered, he had to continue to come to the hospital for checkups from time to time just in case, so as not to find out that the cancer would recur.
Who knew that he was fine in the first few years, until last year, when Mr. Lin went to the hospital for another checkup, he was not only told that his stomach cancer had recurred, but also skipped the early and middle stages and became the late stage, which was incurable!
With stomach cancer, even if Mr. Lin was willing to insist on radiation therapy and take medicine, his already old body could not withstand such torture. Gradually, Mr. Lin was afraid that Qiao Nan would see something, so he simply let his aunt push him to sit in a wheelchair because of his inconvenience in his legs and feet. In this way, as long as Mr. Lin wears more and bigger clothes and covers his legs with a blanket, he says that his legs are not in good condition and cannot be blown by the wind. In addition, even if the two meet, Mr. Lin will never let Qiao Nan stay in front of him for too long.
Half a year has passed, and Qiao Nan occasionally feels whether Mr. Lin has lost weight. Every time she asked Mr. Lin this, she got a negative answer. Another time, Mr. Lin said: "I have lost weight,
which is not normal. I am an old man, I don't exercise much, and my appetite is not as good as you young people. There should be no old man of my age who can still gain weight?" Mr. Lin said this, and Qiao Nan thought about it. It seems that she has rarely seen an old man of Mr. Lin's age who can still gain weight, so Qiao Nan gave up her doubts. She never thought that Mr. Lin would use such a foolish trick to deceive her, and finally fooled her. After all, she never thought of the bad side, so she was less suspicious.
Auntie has worked with Mr. Lin for several years. Although Mr. Lin is a lonely man, he has a good temper and is a good person. Whenever there is something wrong with Auntie's family, or when they are in trouble or short of money, Mr. Lin will help.
Therefore, knowing that Mr. Lin really wanted to keep Qiao Nan a secret, Auntie helped him. Without Auntie's help, how could Mr. Lin have kept the secret from Qiao Nan until today.
After hearing that Elder Lin admitted to Zhai Sheng that he was terminally ill, Auntie couldn't help crying out loud: "Uncle Lin can hardly eat anything every day now." A few months ago, Uncle Lin ate and vomited, and then vomited and ate again.
Because Uncle Lin knew that if he didn't eat, he would be listless and weak. Qiao Nan was such a smart girl, I was afraid she would find out something.
So, Auntie just watched Elder Lin force himself to eat. The painful look on his face made Auntie sometimes want to secretly tell Qiao Nan, or snatch the food from Elder Lin's hand. It is said that it is better to live a miserable life than to die, but this way of living is too painful.
Now, Elder Lin's condition has reached a very serious situation: he can't eat.
Of course, Mr. Lin couldn't eat anymore. With his physical condition, no matter how slow his metabolism was, as long as he was still alive, he would still be able to metabolize. In just two or three days, Mr. Lin, who was not fat to begin with, became extremely thin.
In this state, how could Mr. Lin dare to let Qiao Nan come to see him, or let the three children come to see him. Mr.
Lin was a man and didn't care about beauty. Even so, he couldn't accept his current appearance, let alone others. Therefore, after Zhai Sheng entered the Lin family, he discovered that there were no reflective glass anywhere in the Lin family, let alone mirrors.
