Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Grandpa Doesn’t Want to Be a Burden to You

She has always been well-behaved in front of her maternal grandfather, never showing her distress in his presence, and she has never planned to tell him about his illness!!

Now, she is no longer the little girl who would only act spoiled in her grandfather’s arms. After all, she is already in her twenties, and there are things she must take on herself!

But Elder Mu is an extremely astute person, even though his attending doctor and his granddaughter both concealed his medical condition from him. However, even if they didn’t tell him, he could still guess some of it; after all, he has lived nearly a lifetime, with one foot already in the grave!

Elder Mu looked at Song Qiao with a very gentle expression on his face, but there was still an undertone of displeasure in his voice, "Qiaoqiao, Grandpa knows his own physical condition; there’s no need to spend so much money on hospitalization. Just help Grandpa with the discharge procedures!"

As the Mu Family fell on hard times, he naturally was aware of his granddaughter’s current living situation, and his hospital stay was an added burden to Song Qiao!

Upon hearing her grandfather’s words, Song Qiao couldn’t hold back, feeling a warmth in her eyes, and immediately reached out to hold his calloused hands. In spite of her intense heartache, she still wore a smile, with a hint of playful reproach, "Grandfather, what are you saying? If you talk like this, I’ll be angry. You still need another surgery; we can leave the hospital after it’s done! So, Grandfather, let’s not talk about discharge for now, okay?"

Elder Mu paused and sighed deeply, his eyes that had weathered the storms of life fixed on Song Qiao with affection and indulgence. He said, "Qiaoqiao, I am well aware of my own health. You are still young, at the prime of your life, and you will eventually get married. You are constantly worried about my health, Grandpa doesn’t want to be a burden to you, understand? Anyway, Grandpa’s already got one foot in the grave; it doesn’t matter whether this illness is treated or not!"

Hearing Elder Mu’s words, Song Qiao couldn’t hold back any longer, and the tears she had long restrained in her eyes suddenly rolled down.

The girl seemed to be in pain as she shook her head; her tears were like a faucet that couldn’t be turned off. She said, "Grandfather, I don’t understand what you’re saying, but all I know is that you’re the only family I have in this world, and if even you don’t want me, then I will have no family left in this world..."

Even Elder Mu, having experienced life’s vicissitudes and braved many storms, seeing Song Qiao cry so heartbreakingly, eventually softened his heart. Looking at Song Qiao, whose tears kept rolling down, he was somewhat at a loss and ultimately had to compromise, "Alright, alright, Grandpa will stay in the hospital. Qiaoqiao, stop crying, it breaks Grandpa’s heart to see you like this. If you keep crying, Grandpa will start crying too!"

Hearing Elder Mu’s words, Song Qiao immediately went from tears to laughter, hastily wiping the tears from her face and nodding messily to show she would stop crying!

Song Qiao stayed with Elder Mu in the hospital for dinner before she left.

As soon as she entered the foyer and was about to change her shoes, Ning Wan, who had been waiting at home, rushed up to her anxiously, "Qiaoqiao, where have you been? I called your phone, but you didn’t answer. Do you know something happened?"
