The Indifferent Young Master's Flash Marriage

Chapter 433: Painful Decision

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng came to Zhao Hua Hospital and saw Xie Changfeng outside the mortuary.

According to the nurse at the front desk, Xie Changfeng had never left the hospital.

Xie Changfeng sat on the chair at the door. His old eyes were slightly lowered, and his whole body was enveloped by a grief-stricken aura.

Su Wan looked at Xie Changfeng’s white hair and could not help but feel a little bitter in her heart.

Looking at the dark circles under grandfather’s eyes, it seemed that he had been guarding Lin Xuan for the whole night and hadn’t slept at all.

Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng walked up quickly. She handed over the breakfast she had just bought, which was steaming soy milk and delicious steamed buns.

“Grandfather, eat something.”

Su Wan had cried too much last night, so she didn’t look good. Before she went out, she had put on light makeup so that Xie Changfeng wouldn’t worry, but her lips were still pale.

Xie Changfeng turned around and looked at the outstanding young couple in front of him. A glimmer of light flashed across his aged eyes as he suddenly recalled something.

It was good to be young, unlike him, who was in the sunset...

“Wan, I can’t eat.”

Xie Changfeng slowly stood up and shook his head at Su Wan. His originally valiant appearance was now filled with a decadent aura.

“Grandfather, although grandmother has left, you still have us. We all need you very much. Are you looking like this to make us juniors worry?”

Xie Changfeng rubbed his tired eyebrows. He looked at Su Wan’s slightly red eyes and sighed. Finally, he took the breakfast Su Wan bought.

He only made do with a few sips of soy milk and two small steamed buns before he stopped moving.

Xie Changfeng put down his breakfast. He picked up Jiang Xuecheng’s hand and then Su Wan’s hand and put them together.

Su Wan didn’t understand what Xie Changfeng meant. Suddenly, a lonely smile appeared on Xie Changfeng’s face, and the pain in his eyes couldn’t be healed.

“Xuecheng, Wan, you are both good children that grandfather likes. Grandfather is getting old. I don’t know when I will be gone in the blink of an eye...”

“Grandfather...”

Hearing this, Su Wan quivered. Why did she feel that Xie Changfeng had fallen into such hopelessness and did not want to live anymore?

Just when Su Wan wanted to interrupt, Jiang Xuecheng pinched Su Wan’s hand and signaled her to listen quietly.

Su Wan met Jiang Xuecheng’s deep eyes. In the end, she pursed her lips and did not interrupt.

Xie Changfeng did not seem to notice the interaction between the two of them. He was completely immersed in his own emotions.

“The two of you are different from grandfather. Both of you are still so young. You still have a long way to go in life. You might encounter a lot of storms in the future, but I hope the two of you can live your own lives well. Through thick and thin, you can go forward hand in hand and live a peaceful and happy life.”

As he spoke, Xie Changfeng withdrew his hand. He had always been strict, but at this moment, his eyes were extremely loving, and he actually looked like Lin Xuan.

Hearing this, Su Wan choked up. Her heart felt like it was filled with lead, and she felt uncomfortable.

She had heard similar words from Lin Xuan a thousand times.

Usually, she did not really feel touched, but today, Xie Changfeng’s words had struck her heart in an instant.

A tree wishes for peace, but the wind does not stop blowing. A child wishes to be nurtured, but the family does not wait. If one only knew how to cherish after losing, how much regret would one have in life?

Xie Changfeng looked at Su Wan. He looked at Su Wan’s eyes that resembled Lin Xuan’s, and his expression darkened slightly. He extended his hand and patted Su Wan’s shoulder again.

This youngest granddaughter of his had been pampered like a jewel since she was young. Thus, she had been raised to be obedient and quiet on the surface, but deep down, she was a little rebellious.

“Wan, grandfather is most worried about you. Your personality is too strong. In the future, you have to give in at appropriate times. That way, you won’t be at a disadvantage, do you understand?”

“Grandfather, I understand.”

Su Wan looked at Xie Changfeng with concern. Because she had cried too much last night, her voice was still a little hoarse.

“Grandfather, you have to take care of your health. If Grandmother knew that you were so immersed in your grief, she would definitely be unhappy.”

Hearing Su Wan’s words, Xie Changfeng nodded. He was gratified thinking about this granddaughter of his who had grown up.

Jiang Xuecheng stood beside Su Wan silently. At this moment, he also spoke calmly to comfort Xie Changfeng.

“Grandfather, the deceased is already dead. The present is the most important. Wan Wan and I both wish to see you healthy and live a long life, to see Wan Wan and my child grow up.”

“Good child. Grandfather knows your intentions.”

A trace of sadness flashed across Xie Changfeng’s eyes. There seemed to be a flash of light in his old eyes.

“I’ve promised you that I won’t give up so easily. Don’t worry, my health is very good and I’m not the kind of person who would be sad.”

It was just that the pain of losing his wife was not so easy to get over.

Hearing Xie Changfeng’s low voice, Su Wan instantly heaved a sigh of relief. Since her grandfather had said so, he had no intention of committing suicide.

Now that her grandmother and parents had abandoned the secular world, and Su Wan had broken off relations with the Su family, if Xie Changfeng still couldn’t get over it, Su Wan wouldn’t be able to find any relatives to confide in.

Su Wan looked up at Xie Changfeng and suggested solemnly.

“Grandfather, why don’t you live with us in Fontainebleau from now on? Stay in S City?”

Now that Lin Xuan had left, Xie Changfeng would be the only one living in the huge house in A City. It was too lonely to think about.

Moreover, Xie Changfeng had reached the age of retirement. It was because his teaching qualifications were high and he was liked by the students that he still stayed in Chang Xin University to teach. His classes were also more relaxed.

When Xie Changfeng heard this, he waved his hand at Su Wan tiredly. “Wan, let’s talk about these things in the future.”

Su Wan frowned. She knew that Xie Changfeng had no plans to return to S City at the moment. However, since Xie Changfeng said that they could discuss it in the future, then there might be a chance for things to turn around.

Xie Changfeng was alone in A City. Although there was nothing wrong with his legs, he was old after all. If he did not have someone to take care of him, no one would know if something were to happen.

If Xie Changfeng insisted on staying in A City, Su Wan planned to hire a nanny for him...

After a night of thinking, Xie Changfeng became much more awake. He finally decided to cremate Lin Xuan’s body.

According to the rules of S City, the body would be cremated first and then the funeral was to be held the next day.

Su Wan, Jiang Xuecheng, and Xie Changfeng followed the car of the funeral parlor and went to the crematorium.

The immediate relatives of the Lin and Xie families were already waiting there.

Xie Changfeng stood in front of the crematorium. His aged finger reached out to the button. His entire body trembled slightly, and his expression was extremely mournful.

Su Wan’s nose turned sour, and she couldn’t bear to watch it. Meanwhile, many of the women beside her were already crying.

The side of the cold coffin that opened just now was the last thing they would see of her.

From then on, everything was going to be burned to ashes.

Xie Changfeng closed his eyes. Finally, he pressed his finger down with his strength...
