Since then, Shen Xitong is quite honest.
Even though she still visits Grandma Shen every day, she won’t stay long.
She basically says one or two words and leaves, without care.

Shen Qinglan still accompanied Grandma Shen every day, talking and chatting for a while.
Sometimes she just takes a book she liked and sat beside Grandma Shen, reading it for her.

However, Shen Qinglan discovered that Grandma Shen often looks at her anxiously, with sad eyes.

“Lan Lan, Grandma is worried that Grandma can’t see the day you marry and have children.” Today, Shen Qinglan only read for Grandma Shen, who is now holding her hand and spoke.

Shen Qinglan smiled lightly. “Grandma, what is Grandma talking about? We went to the temple at Shangxiang to look for predictions.
The Monk said that Grandma must have lived 100 years before death.”

Grandma Shen laughed. “You can’t trust the old monk’s tricks.”

“It seems like the old monk didn’t cheat me this time, Grandma must live a long life.”

Grandma Shen laughed and patted the back of Qingaln’s hand. “You always make Grandma happy.
But Lan Lan, Grandma’s body can’t last up to 100 years.
Grandma doesn’t want anything else in life, Grandma just wants Lan Lan to meet a man who will love and look after you all your life.
This way grandma can go peacefully.”

Hearing Grandma Shen’s words again, Shen Qinglan felt pain in her heart and a sting in her eyes. “Grandmother…”

Grandma Shen sighed and gently patted Shen Qinglan’s back, just like when she pampered Shen Qinglan when she was a child.

At night, Fu Hengyi returned to his dorm from the base.
Today is the first day of training new recruits.
He always appears as Captain and Chief Instructor.

Seeing the cellphone still lying still in the drawer, Fu Hengyi’s eyebrows showed a hint of helplessness.

Thinking that he hadn’t contacted Grandfather for a long time, he called home.

“Grandfather.”

“Hengyi.” Grandpa Fu’s voice was heard from the other end of the phone.

Fu Hengyi looked at the cellphone and saw the number on it.
It was really his home number.

“Are you trying to contact Qinglan girl?” Asked Grandpa Fu.

Fu Hengyi’s heart sank.
By the sound his tone, something was wrong.
There’s a bad feeling in his heart.

“No, what happened at home?”

“What can happen in our family? There is a problem in Grandpa Shen’s family.
Grandma Shen was unconscious this morning and was sent to the hospital.
Even though she was saved, this time the situation is very bad.
I’m afraid she wouldn’t last long.
Your uncle Shen has hurried back from headquarters today.
Contact Qinglan when you are free.
She has the best relationship with her grandmother.
I’m afraid this time she will be very devastated.”

Fu Hengyi’s heart slumped directly into the valley floor, and his mind couldn’t help but think of Shen Qinglan’s cold and proud figure.

Closing the phone with Grandpa Fu, Hengyi looked for Shen Qinglan’s name on his cellphone and contacted her.

The phone is connected very quickly.
Qinglan’s tired voice came from the other end of the telephone.
Fu Hengyi’s heart was pained.

“Hello.”

“It’s me.
Fu Hengyi.”

“I know.”

Except for silence, the air was quiet, they could only hear each other’s breath.

“What is it?” Finally, Qinglan opened her mouth first.
She stayed in the hospital all day and left only to go home and get a change of clothes, then come back.

“Are you okay?” Hengyi asked.

Shen Qinglan: “I’m fine, thank you.”

“If something happens, contact me at any time.”

“Okay.”

Again, there are no words.

When Qinglan wanted to hang up, she suddenly remembered the loving face of Grandma Shen and said.

“Will you marry me?”

After that, Qinglan realized what she was saying, but she had already spoken, waiting for the other party’s response.
But she could not wait for the other’s response for long.
She returned from her stupor and her voice was indifferent. “Sorry, it’s so sudden.”

Fu Hengyi could only ask back, “Were you serious just now?”

Qinglan held her cellphone tight, staring deep into the darkness of the night. “Yes.”

“You should know that I’m in the military.
Marrying me, as long as I don’t approve of divorce; then you won’t be able to divorce me later.
Do you still want to marry me?”
 Fu Hengyi asked seriously.

“Yes.”

“Have you thought carefully?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, I will report to my superior tonight.
I will return at the latest tomorrow afternoon.
Prepare your ID and residency book.
We’ll meet up at the door of the civil registry office at 12 noon tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

After cutting the line, Qinglan’s hand fell helplessly.
She didn’t know whether making this decision was a mistake.
Seeing her grandmother who was on the verge of leaving, she could not bear to see her grandmother going without peace.

Shen Qinglan was very grateful that Hengyi was willing to cooperate.
Hengyi didn’t even ask why.

Qinglan went to Grandma and Grandpa Shen’s room.
Grandpa Shen also spent time in hospital today.
Even though it was late, and he was very tired, he did not feel sleepy.

“Grandpa, have you slept?” The door opened and Qinglan’s face appeared from outside.

Grandpa Shen waved, “Come in.”

Qinglan sat near the bed. “Grandpa, why haven’t you slept?”

“When people get old, they rarely make sense.” Grandpa Shen’s face looked tired, and his eyes were filled with sadness.

“Grandpa, Qinglan wants to ask for something.
I hope you can agree.”
 Shen Qinglan thought about talking about it, but she was not sure whether Grandpa Shen would approve.

“What is wrong? Just say it.”

“I want to marry Fu Hengyi tomorrow.”

“Nonsense!” Immediately after the words fell, Grandpa Shen could not help but cry out.
This is the first time in years that Grandpa Shen had scolded his granddaughter.

Shen Qinglan knelt on the floor in front of Grandpa Shen.
With a stubborn look, she said, “Please approve Grandpa.”

Grandpa Shen glared at his granddaughter.
Anger was clearly visible in his eyes, he was very upset.

Qinglan silently knelt on the floor.
No one who spoke, the whole room became silent.

“Do you know what you are doing?” Grandpa Shen said firmly, he could not cover his anger.

Qinglan knew that this was not a decision she did carelessly, but the result of thinking many times over.

“Forget it!” Grandpa Shen emphasized. “You only met Fu Hengyi several times.
Do you want to marry him? Do you know what kind of person he is? Do you really know him?”

“I believe Grandpa’s words.
The person who Grandpa praised highly, can’t be bad.”

“Qinglan, this is crazy! Do you know Fu Hengyi’s age?! At his age, you can call him uncle.” Grandpa Shen gasped at his granddaughter.

“Grandpa, please approve.”

Qinglan paused again, knelt on the floor with a stubborn expression.

“Shen Qinglan, Grandpa will tell you, you have hurt your grandfather’s heart; absolutely no blessing from me.”
