Chapter 22 - Talk between grandpa and his granddaughter

s.h.i.+ Feng lived in Shen QingLan's apartment for half a month, thinking that she would come back. But until the end, she didn't appear again. When A Nan finished investigating who the owner of this house is, it turned out it listed under a man's name, but he couldn't actually find who it was.

In desperation, s.h.i.+ Feng had to give up the search and returned to his gang.

What did QingLan do during this past half month? Well, besides hanging out with Yu XiaoXuan, she spent most of her days staying at home to be with her grandmother.

Her grandma's condition was worsening these days. Her face became thinner than ever, and she was sleeping most days. QingLan realized her grandmother's days was getting nearer.

She sat beside her grandma's bed, as her grandma just fell asleep. She was holding her grandma's small and scrawny hand, while watching her sleeping face, she looked very serene.

Grandpa Shen came into the room and patted QingLan's shoulder gently. Shen QingLan stood up and walked out from the room together with Grandpa Shen.

The pair of this grandpa and his granddaughter went to the garden.

It was Summer, the gardenia in the garden was blooming beautifully. It made the air-filled with gardenia's smell.

This is the favorite flower of Grandma Shen, her Grandpa planted it in every corner of the garden for her.

"Lan'er you're already twenty-one years old. You're a big girl now." Grandpa Shen looked at his granddaughter and sighed.

Shen QingLan's eyes flickered with emotion. "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

"You've always been a smart girl and you keep hidden your entire feelings well. You've always kept it deep inside your heart without say anything to us. I know you love your grandma so much and it's what your grandma and I worried the most. As the saying goes, love always hurts people."

He was aware that this granddaughter of his was a smart and loving child. He already knew it since her childhood. But after growing up, especially after Shen QingLan returned to the Shen Family, it was kind of changed. Grandpa Shen had seen countless people in his lifetime, he seen many people who wasn't showing their feeling outright. Fu HengYi was one of the people, but now he could also say that his granddaughter was one of them too.

Shen QingLan seemed to be a very cold person from the outside, who always didn't show her feelings. But she was actually a very soft-hearted and kind person. Sometimes she was really indifferent towards many things. Her kind of indifference was towards people she didn't really bother to care in life.

Grandpa Shen sent people to check Shen QingLan's life after been abducted by the traffickers. Besides knowing that she was adopted by a couple, then after the couple had their own children, they finally sent her to a welfare home. She grew up the rest of her childhood in the welfare home, aside from this, he couldn't find any other information.

Grandpa Shen never doubted that Shen QingLan wasn't the child of Shen's family. Today's technology was very developed, it was very simple to verify it, and The Shen Family was already tested it.

"Grandpa, I know I'm too attached to grandma. But I just want to stay right by her side in her last days. So I won't regret it in the later days."

"I know you know what the best for yourself. But looking at what you've done this days, you always stay at home all day. Your grandma is worried about it too. You know that we both are already old. Sooner or later, we both will leave you first. I already prepare when the time comes, so we hope you can also start preparing." This was Grandpa Shen's sincere and honest wishes, although sometimes he couldn't see through this granddaughter of his but he knew that she truly loved and cared for her elderly.

His wife's  days weren't much left, he was afraid this child wouldn't be able to withstand the blow when the time came.

"Your grandma often tells me, 'our LanLan is so beautiful, I wonder what kind of man is worthy to be her husband in the future'."

"Grandma really loves me so much, therefore she really thinks that I'm such a talented girl. But I'm afraid in other people's eyes I'm just an average girl." Shen QingLan's eyes filled with so much warmth, she often heard her grandma telling her this words.

Grandpa Shen scowled. "Nonsense, how could anyone said my granddaughter's look is average. They must be blind."

Shen QingLan laughed lightly, her face filled with a rare seen smile. "Grandpa, others might say that you and grandma are selling melons*."

(*means bluffing, CMIIW)

"Well, I'm not lying. You just don't acknowledge it. You know that Grandpa Fu have been longing for you to be their granddaughter-in-law from a long time right. Every time he saw you, his eyes always become green."

Shen QingLan really laughed out loud this time. "Grandpa, if Grandpa Fu hears what you said earlier, I'm afraid he would come find you."

"Well, I'm not afraid of him!" Grandpa Shen snorted lightly, but looking at his granddaughter's laughing face his mood became much better.

These days his wife's condition was deteriorating. Shen XiTong was still hospitalized because of her fracture. Chu YunRong went to the hospital all day because of it. When she returned home, she would look at Shen QingLan with a grievance expression, especially on the day of XiTong's orchestra performance. It was said as XiTong was still hospitalized at that time, she drank many sleeping pill trying to commit suicide. When Chu YunRong came back home that day, she made a big fuss of it. In the end Grandpa Shen came out and dealt with her.

Because of it the atmosphere in the house was also worsening. Since that day, Shen QingLan always stayed in her room if she wasn't in her grandma's room, it was rare for her to come to the living room.

"Grandpa, what are you guys talking about here?" Shen JunYu who just came back from work heard from Aunty Song that Shen QingLan and his grandpa was in the garden, so he came out to find them.

"I was just talking with your sister, and what are you doing here?" Grandpa Shen was a bit impatient now when his grandson interrupted his talk with Lan'er. This smelly boy only busy with his business all the time, he didn't even have time to accompany his sister.

As he was given a dirty look for no reason, Shen JunYu scratched his nose, feeling innocence.

In a military camp, Fu HengYi jumped from a helicopter to his long-awaited basecamp. His mission this time was harder than he originally thought, so he spent so much more time to finished it. At first he thought it would be completed in half a month, but in reality it was dragged on for a full month.

"Captain, we just received new instruction from the superiors. There will be a military exercise in our platoon next month. Major asked us to send a small team to partic.i.p.ate it." The Vice Captain, Mu LianCheng said.

"Is the list of the personnel already drafted?" Fu HengYi asked calmly.

"Not yet, I know you're coming back today, so I wait for you to decide it."

"Well, you decide it yourself. And how's the result of the new recruit selection?"

"The preliminary result has come out, there are 300 new recruits has been selected. They will receive half-year training after that. After they pa.s.sed this final a.s.sessment the recruit can finally join our troops."

"Well, it's better that nothing. Keep it up."

"Understood."

Fu HengYi walked into the dormitory. As he was the captain, he got a separate dormitory for himself. His place was very simple, there wasn't any extra personal things except a table, a bed, a wardrobe, and a bathroom.

He knitted his brows slightly, and rushed into the dormitory. Instead went to the bathroom to take a bath, he immediately opened his drawer and took out his mobile phone that had been turned off for a month.

As the mobile phone didn't have any battery left, he charged it first before went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Five minutes later, Fu HengYi came out of the bathroom with a refres.h.i.+ng look. He then picked up the phone and checked if he had a missed calls or messages, but he got nothing.

His eyes were stormed with emotion, but it's unidentified what kind of emotion is that.

Translator's Note:

I personally think this scene is very heart-warming, you can see she's not really a block of an ice in front of the one she really love and care for.
