âThat is indeed the case, but the prerequisite is that...âhe stared at her. âThe person must be you.â
Shi Nuannuan was stunned.
âAh?â
âHe has always wanted you to become our familyâs granddaughter-in-law, so all this while, I couldnât bear to tell him that itâs impossible between us.â
âThen itâs impossible for you to keep it from him. Itâs impossible for me to marry you.âShe lowered her head. Although it was a little cruel, it was still the truth.
Once a white lie was exposed, it might make the old man suffer even more.
âI really AM, but itâs better to keep it a secret than to tell the cruel truth.â
âWhat about in the end?â
âIâll keep it a day at a time.âCheng Huan turned his head and looked at the sky in the distance. Suddenly, it was covered by dark clouds. It was just like how he felt at that moment. He was at a loss, but there was nothing he could do.
Shi Nuannuan looked at him and did not say anything else in the end.
However, he suddenly turned his head. âCan you also do me a Favor?â
She looked up and looked at him with some confusion. âWhat?â
âAlthough I canât marry you, at least, in the time that he has left in his life, donât say things that are impossible between us. I promise, I wonât really harass you.â
She was stunned for a few seconds and didnât know how to answer his question.
âBut in front of my grandfather, you also know that his body is gradually failing. After a while, he might even have difficulty getting out of bed.â
Shi Nuannuan raised her head abruptly. Was It really that serious?
After thinking about it again, she couldnât help but agree to Cheng Huanâs request.
After all, she did not spend much time in front of Grandpa Cheng.
âAlright.â
âThank you.âLooking at her, he revealed a knowing smile.
During lunch, Shi Nuannuan indeed cooperated with Cheng Huan a little, but she still looked a little uncomfortable, especially in her heart. She felt a little guilty.
Shi Yuting and Zuo Weiyi also clearly saw her sudden change, but they did not know why.
Shi Le and Old Master Cheng beamed with joy when they saw the couple. Both of them had a low feeling in their hearts.
On the way home after having lunch at the Cheng Mansion, Zuo Weiyi didnât have the chance to ask Shi Le about it because Shi le was there. She didnât go to Nuannuanâs room until she reached the second floor of Shi Mansion and asked her about it.
Nuannuan told her the reason, and Zuo Weiyi, who knew the truth, could not help but feel shocked.
In this world, no matter how powerful you were, the only thing you could not do was to die of old age, illness, and death.
Grandpa Cheng was such a good person, but in the end, he could not withstand the pain of illness.
âSister-in-law, I feel a little sorry for Xiang Yi.â
âWhy?âZuo Weiyi looked at her unhappy face. âYou didnât do anything. You just didnât tell Grandpa Cheng about it. Why would you feel sorry for Xiang Yi?â
Shi Nuannuan frowned. âI was just worried. Didnât you say that brother was very sensitive at that time? As long as you had a little relationship with that person, he would be jealous immediately!â
Hearing her words, Zuo Weiyi could not help but think that men were sometimes more sensitive than women. Would Xiang Yi be unhappy because of this?
âAnyway, donât think too much. If necessary, you can explain it to him.â
âOkay!âShe nodded.
âIâll go take care of the baby.â
âIâll go too!âShe missed the two cute little guys!
After teasing the baby for a while, the sky quickly darkened.
