"Boom!!"
To the Shen family, this sentence was like a thunderbolt!
"Did you die?" Mrs. Shen was stunned as if she had been slashed, her eyes were empty and out of focus.
"Hanging there with my last breath, the old man has been calling Qiutang, Fubao..."
"Wow!!" Shen Zhile couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard that grandpa was still breathing his last breath, and rushed into the consulting room.
Mrs. Shen also rushed in with Fu Bao in her arms, and saw the old man lying on the hospital bed dying, with a haggard face and no vitality, as if he had aged several years all of a sudden.
grandfather…
Fu Bao couldn't stop crying.
She failed!
Why can't I open the mind space to see Grandpa Fuxing and ask him for a favor? Why, why not
She wants to save grandpa!
must be saved!
But what to do? For the first time, Fu Bao felt that even as a little lucky star in the sky, there were times when he was so powerless!
"Old man, you can't die! What will I do if you die, I'll go with you too..." Mrs. Shen knelt down beside the hospital bed, holding old man Shen's emaciated hand, crying heartbreakingly.
"Qiutang..." This was the old lady's name, and old man Shen had seldom called it since he got old.
Knowing that he couldn't do it, he held his last breath and said with difficulty, "You...you have to live well, help me...to watch the children grow up, especially Fubao...you...you have to take my place, watch her...grow up, get married...you must...choose a good husband for her...if that man dares to bully Fubao, just say, just say...her grandpa is a ghost, and he won't let him go!"
"Don't talk about it, old man! It's up to you to see it for yourself, why let me see it for you? You see it yourself, do you hear? Don't walk in front of me, I can't do without you..." Mrs. Shen was about to faint from crying.
"I'm sorry... I don't mean what I say... If there is an afterlife, we... will still be husband and wife."
"Old man!" Mrs. Shen cried even harder.
Old man Shen held her hand instead, and looked at Shen Zhile who was crying earth-shatteringly beside him with narrowed eyes, "Zhile, grandpa knows...you are a good boy, you...you have to take good care of your sister."
"Grandpa, I will, I will take good care of Fubao! Woooooo..."
In the end, Old Man Shen's eyes fell on Fu Bao's face, still doting on him, "Fu Bao, grandpa really wants to watch you grow up, but... there is no other way. Grandpa will watch you in the sky..."
Fu Bao rushed to his side, crying and shaking his head, "Don't! Grandpa, it's a lie for people to go to heaven after death! If they were all in the sky, the heavens would already be crowded! So grandpa... don't die, I won't be able to see you after you die, I don't want you to die, oh..."
The doctors and nurses on the side all had red eyes and wiped their tears quietly. This scene of parting from life and death is really uncomfortable.
"Fubao, grandpa... grandpa..." Old man Shen was about to say something, but suddenly he couldn't speak, his eyes were wide open, and there was a sound of "Ziz" in his throat, and he was about to die!
"Grandpa!" Fu Bao yelled in horror. In a hurry, something seemed to explode in her brain, and a golden light flashed by. She fainted as soon as her eyes were dark, and fell to the ground!
Before she fainted, she heard Old Madam Shen's terrified cry, "Daughter—"
