Book:Beloved by the Hardhearted Avenger Published:2024-5-31

Zhong Shaoting, who got on the plane, focused all his attention on the old lady. Since there was no way to turn on the phone on the plane, Zhong Shaoting could only wait until the plane landed. Right now, he could only pray that the old lady could survive until he returned. Although Zhong Shaoting did not know what the old lady was going to tell him, Zhong Shaoting knew that this matter must be related to the family.
Before the old lady had given her the heirloom, she must have finally thought of the day she would be in the future, but she definitely did not expect it to be so fast.
Zhong Shaoting felt that the reason why Old Madam Xi was able to stay in danger so quickly was all because of Zhong Jue’s chaos. In Zhong Shaoting’s heart, he started to hate Zhong Jue more and more.
Just as Zhong Shaoting was still thinking about it, the plane landed. As soon as he got off the plane, Zhong Shaoting rushed to find the person Song Chen sent to pick him up, but he did not see anything around the airport. Zhong Shaoting suddenly thought that something might have happened to the person sent by Song Chen along the way. Zhong Jue definitely did not want to rush back smoothly. Because he was too worried about the old lady just now, he did not expect her to be at this level, but he did not expect to let him slip.
Thinking that it was too late to call Song Chen and ask him to send someone over, Zhong Shaoting could only go out and take a taxi. He gave the driver ten times the price to rush to the downtown hospital as quickly as possible. To Zhong Shaoting’s surprise, the taxi driver turned out to be a professional racer. Because his wife was worried about his career, he retired.
This also helped Zhong Shaoting. It was originally two hours, but it was forcefully compressed into one hour by the driver. In order to express his gratitude to the driver, Zhong Shaoting gave him all the money in his wallet without hesitation and left his contact information, telling him that if he didn’t want to take a taxi in the future, he could come find him to take his personal driver. The driver probably did not expect that his help today would bring great changes to his future.
When they arrived at the hospital entrance, Zhong Shaoting hurriedly ran to the ward where the old lady lived. Zhong Jue’s group was guarding the door. When he saw Zhong Shaoting, he was a little surprised. He had sent someone to stop him on the way, but he still failed and let him rush over smoothly.
Zhong Shaoting was not in the mood to argue with Zhong Jue, so he quickly opened the door and entered the ward.
“Grandmother, open your eyes and look at me. I’m back. Before I came, I saw your grandson and granddaughter. I’ll show you the photos now. Don’t sleep over. Look at them. They are really cute. You will definitely like them. Zhong Shaoting knew that although the old lady did not say it, it was more important than anything to pass on to the old lady. Therefore, Zhong Shaoting tried to divert Old Madam Xi’s attention so that she could have the confidence to live.
The old lady seemed to have sensed Zhong Shaoting’s expectations. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at the photo on Zhong Shaoting’s phone. “Grandmother is most worried about your life. Now that everything is fine with you, I feel relieved. This time, I made you rush back in a hurry because I wanted to tell you something. I hope you can promise me because I am a dying person.
At this moment, Zhong Shaoting almost knew what the old lady wanted to say. “Alright, no matter what you say, I will agree. Don’t be excited or anxious. As long as you’re safe, it’s more important than anything.”
“Grandmother should’ve always known that you’re a good child and that you’re not as narrow-minded as them. I don’t have much time left. I hope you can promise me to protect the peace of the family and not let the family go into chaos. The most important thing about the prosperity of the family is the harmony of the family. If you want the Zhong family to survive for a long time, you must gather everyone’s strength. The old lady had exhausted a lot of energy when she said this. By the time she stopped, she was already on the verge of death.
“I will do my best to protect the prosperity of the family. I will not care about everything in the past. Don’t worry.”
With Zhong Shaoting’s guarantee, the old lady’s last thought was relieved.
The old lady didn’t want Zhong Shaoting to suffer too much. She added, “If they bully him too much, you should not be wronged. You should be ruthless when you are ruthless, or else they will treat you as a soft persimmon. The family needs a tough heir, and you are the parent I carefully selected. In the future, the fate of the family’s heart failure is in your hands. You must abide by your duties and make a decision after careful consideration
The old lady could deeply feel that her life was gradually fading away. She wanted to say a lot, but she couldn’t say it all. She could only pick out some important things to avoid leaving any more regrets. In fact, she really wanted to see her grandson and granddaughter with her own eyes, but she understood that she would never have a chance again.
It was the first time that Zhong Shaoting realized that his grandmother had always been a wise person, so she could see through everything. However, when she was old, she didn’t have the strength to use any martial arts in her entire body.
Before Zhong Shaoting could answer, the old lady fell into a coma. This discovery made Zhong Shaoting panic and quickly went to find a doctor.
After the doctor came in for a checkup, he helplessly shook his head.
“Is there really no way?” Zhong Shaoting tried to ask. Even if he had a little hope, Zhong Shaoting would not give up on the old lady easily.
“Mr. Zhong, don’t make things difficult for me. I can’t stop this kind of thing.” Now, I can help Old Madam Xi live for a while longer, for a few months or even a year, for a short period of time.
“What method?” Hurry up and say it! When Zhong Shaoting heard this news, he seemed to see the sun and the hope of rebirth.
“Actually, this isn’t necessarily a good thing. The old lady is always strong. It’s better to let her die under the double torture of her soul and body. It’s better to have her die with the joy of being euthanized. However, it is up to you now. You should consider it in five minutes, or else… ”
The doctor didn’t finish his sentence and Zhong Shaoting knew the result wouldn’t be too good. Five minutes passed quickly and instantly. In the last few seconds, Zhong Shaoting decided to let the old lady be euthanized. She would definitely not want her old age to suffer so much. It was not a good thing for her to end it quickly.
