Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tan Xingyue was aware of her grandmother’s ongoing health issues. Her grandmother had been tirelessly caring for her when she couldn’t walk, which had been a source of great sadness for her. Now that she had improved, she hoped her grandmother could witness it.
Wen Xin looked at Tan Xingyue wearing a floral dress and looked gentle and lovely. She smiled and nodded. “Grandma will be very happy to know that you can walk!”
Tan Xingyue got out of the wheelchair and straightened her clothes. For some reason, she suddenly felt nervous and her legs were trembling.
Wen Xin leaned against the wall and watched as Tan Xingyue tidied up at the door of the ward for five minutes. She smiled faintly.
“The person inside is Grandma. There’s no need to be so nervous!” Wen Xin stood up straight and grabbed Tan Xingyue’s wrist, pulling her along as they walked in.
At this time, Yang Jingyan was wearing presbyopic glasses and doing needlework in the ward. When she heard the door open, she raised her head and looked outside.
As soon as Yang Jingyan saw Wen Xin, her wrinkled little face blossomed with a smile. Then the smile froze and she sat there, stunned.
After about a minute, she got out of bed nimbly and walked to the two of them in small steps.
“Yueyue, my Yueyue, is that you? Can you really stand up and walk?”
Yang Jingyan was not tall. Due to years of fatigue, her back was slightly hunched. Coupled with the torture of illness, her body was very thin.
Standing in front of the two tall and slender young ladies, she appeared a little short. However, it did not affect her image in Wen Xin’s heart at all.
“Grandma, it’s me. I’m fine now. I can walk!” Tan Xingyue could not hide the excitement in her heart for a moment. She hugged Yang Jingyan and cried.
Wen Xin looked at this warm scene, her eyes slightly reddened, her heart unable to calm down.
The grandmother and granddaughter hugged each other and cried for a long time. Wen Xin was worried that Yang Jingyan would be overwhelmed, so she gently pulled the two apart, her voice gentle.
“Alright, Grandma, you can’t get too excited. I brought Xingyue back and arranged for her to study in Ice City. You two will have a lot of opportunities to meet in the future!”
Wen Xin and Tan Xingyue helped Yang Jingyan sit on the bed. Yang Jingyan’s old hands, covered in wrinkles and trembling, held Wen Xin’s hand
“Wen Xin! Thank you! Thank you!” Yang Jingyan’s voice was choked with sobs. She was sincerely grateful to Wen Xin that she was able to see Tan Xingyue stand up before she closed her eyes. Even if she died, she could now rest in peace!’
“Grandma, take good care of yourself. When Xingyue gets into university, we’ll take you on a trip!”
Wen Xin couldn’t bear the gratitude from Yang Jingyan’s lips. She knew that Yang Jingyan had never blamed her. That was also her responsibility.
The three chatted for a long time in the ward. Wen Xin and Tan Xingyue accompanied Yang Jingyan for dinner before leaving.
After exiting the hospital, Wen Xin and Tan Xingyue got into a taxi. Wen Xin’s slender arm was lazily resting on the car window while her other hand casually played with her phone.
“Where are you two young ladies headed?” The driver, glancing at Wen Xin, who had a formidable presence and an air of not being approachable, asked softly through the rearview mirror.
“To Yuelu Garden.”
Wen Xin lowered his head, his fingers busy playing games as he replied in a calm voice.
Twenty minutes later, the taxi stopped at the entrance of a magnificent neighborhood. Wen Xin paid the fare using her phone and got out.
The driver got out of the car warmly and ran to the back of the car to get the wheelchair. He was about to speak when he saw Tan Xingyue standing by the roadside. He was a little surprised..
