An Xia'er shook her head. "No, it's fine."

Looking at Mrs. Qi's white hair and face that was thinner than before due to treatment, for some reason, An Xia felt like her heart had been struck by something.

On the shelf next to the sickbed, there were many different kinds of knitwear. They were in the shape of small animals, had wind chimes, and even flowers …

There was something she was knitting next to the bed. Although her eyes were blurry and her hands and feet were slow, she seemed to be knitting something small in the hospital.

"Grandma Qi!" An Xia looked at her knitting. "You made this?"

"Sigh, I'm also looking for something to do." Old Mrs. Qi sighed, "Occasionally, some kids from the institute would come over to visit us old people. Young kids are so obedient, even wiping my hands, singing and telling jokes for me. I can also give some little gifts to young kids then."

An Xia'er smiled. "Really? It's pretty good."

Zhan Qian put aside the fruit basket they bought for the patient. Looking at this grandma, her slightly sour eyes …

"Eh?" Old Lady Qi noticed Zhan Qian who was in the sickroom, "Little Xia, this is …"

"Oh." An Xia quickly reacted. "Grandma Qi, this is my friend, named Zhan Qian. She's here with me to see you."

"So it's like that." Old Lady Qi narrowed her wrinkled eyes and gave a faint smile, then said, "Good, you're both good kids, just like Qi Lei. Good …"

"Old Lady Qi." Zhan Qian walked over. "We won't be the same as him."

Tai Yinzi was stunned.

An Xia'er hurriedly gave Zhan Qian a meaningful glance. "Zhan Qian …"

Zhan Qian curled her lips, forcing out a smile. "Oh, old lady. I said we were girls and that Qi Lei was a boy. How could we be the same?"

"Oh, right. Little Xia, what are you doing now? Last time, when the nurse pushed me to the garden, I heard a few injured patients complaining about it. The job is very difficult now …"

"Grandma Qi, I …"

Zhan Qian looked at An Xia's troubled expression and asked, "Old granny, did you forget?" Little Xia is still studying. She's still a colonel in the university like your grandson, Qi Lei. "

Old Lady Qi paused for a second, then said, "Oh, yes. Sigh, look at my memory …"

An Xia looked at Zhan Qian.

"Did I say something wrong?" Zhan Qianhuan started, "You haven't even graduated yet."

"…" An Xia'er swallowed her saliva, then forced a smile, "Right, Grandmother Zhi, you don't have to worry about us juniors. Work with doctors in the hospital to recuperate. Don't …" Let Lei worry. "

"Oh, right." Old Lady Qi seemed to have thought of something, "Little Xia, Qi Lei, is your school taking exams or studying hard right now? Why haven't you seen Qi Lei come back?"

"Strange, where's Lei?"

"Where's my good grandson …" "Ai …"

An Xia'er shook her hand.

Zhan Qian couldn't bear it any longer and turned around. "I'll be leaving first."

An Xia raised her face, smiled at Mrs. Qi and said, "Grandma Qi, don't worry, he's doing quite well."

"Yes." Mrs. Qi continued, "It doesn't matter if he is a student, or a student with moral character, all teachers in the school praise him. He must be busy with his studies."

"Mm …"

An Xia nodded.

No matter what, he couldn't tell her about the Thunder Prayer.

"Then …" "Little Xia, why are you so free to come?" asked Mrs. Qi again.

"I-I'm done with it now." An Xia'er said, "Thunder, he …" "The school places more importance on him. He might not be able to come to the hospital to see you at this time of day, so I'll tell you on his behalf, don't worry."

"So it's like that." Old Lady Qi paused for a second and thought, "Then when will he be free?"

"…"

An Xia'er bit her lip.

"Sigh, that child is too desperate." "He's still going to school, working hard and saving time at the same time. He even went out on holidays to find a part-time job, blaming me for being in poor health. I'm sure he'll have to spend a lot of money if I get hospitalized this time."

"This …" An Xia said in a choked voice, "Grandmother Zhi, you don't have to worry. Lei has been supported by the kind-hearted people in the society. You don't have to worry about the medical fees."

"Is that so?"

"Yes." An Xia nodded, "He was just worried about you, Grandma Zhi …" You just need to stay in the hospital and recuperate. "

An Xia'er recalled what Lei had said last time, that she wanted her to tell his grandmother that he had gone abroad to do business … Judging by that moment, he knew that he wouldn't be coming back. He was afraid that his grandmother would go to school to find him.

However, looking at this old lady, An Xia couldn't say anything. She couldn't say anything at all about Qi Lei abandoning her and running away to do business.

Because Grandma Qi would definitely be worried …

"I'm fine." Old Lady Qi said, "I just feel that I am too old to be a burden to Qi Lei. That kid has no parents since he was young, but fortunately, that kid has made some progress and is admitted to a famous university."

"No." An Xia held her hand and said, "Grandmother Qi, you brought him up. He will not blame you if he is grateful to you …"

"Little Xia." "I'm old and often forget about it. Although the nurses always advise me to recover, but I know that even if I recover from this illness, I will still remember my old age and will never be able to avoid death or sickness. Even if he doesn't cure me, I won't blame him. If the medical fees are too high, just tell him to forget about it."

An Xia bit her lips and said, "Grandma Qi, don't think too much. It's just a minor illness, the medical fees are not expensive at all."

"He should spend the money on himself. You young people have a long way to go." "As for Little Xia, it's not like you should come here and pity this old woman. A girl has to think more about her future, whether it's continuing her studies or getting married, she has to find her own path. Whether it's making friends or finding a lover, her eyes have to brighten up a little bit …"

"I …" An Xia'er held back her tears and nodded. "I'm doing very well. I met someone I love, and he treats me very well."

"Is that so? That's good." "You should cherish them well. After living for a long time, you will understand that some people will live their whole lives once they miss a chance."

"…"

"Little Xia is a good child. You should be happy."

An Xia'er bit her lip.

"Come, Little Xia." "Grandmother doesn't have anything to give you. Here, this is for you. I hope this doll can help Xiao Xia sweep away the haze and bring back the sunny days, forever keeping a smile on his face."

An Xia looked at what Old Lady Qi had put in her hands, her eyes shining with tears. "..." "Thank you."

"I should've said thank you instead. Thank you for coming to see me, Little Xia."

Mrs. Qi leaned against the bed, smiled and slowly closed her eyes.

Anxia opened her moist eyes, her breathing changed as she asked, "Grandma Qi?"

Old Lady Qi did not open her eyes. Ji Hao didn't know if she was asleep or what.

She shook her head, "Grandma Zhi? Grandma Qi? "

Anxia's tears immediately started rolling down her face. She hurriedly rang the bell. "Nurse, quickly come over. Grandma Qi, she …"

Hearing An Xia'er's shout, the nurse, Housekeeper Wei and the rest rushed in, all of them looking at Old Lady Qi who was closing her eyes.

The nurse looked at the empress dowager and said to the empress dowager, "Don't worry, old lady Qi is sleeping. She always takes a nap from time to time. She's old, it's like this …"

"…" An Xia'er blinked. "Really?"

"Yes." The nurse said, "She's going to sleep for an hour or two, you see... Do you want to stay in the hospital and wait for her to wake up, or do you want to go back first? "

"We should go back." Butler Wei reminded, "We have to return to S City today."

Zhan Qian looked at An Xia. "Little Xia …"

"I know." An Xia'er lowered her gaze. "Nurse, you guys take good care of her."

"Of course."

The nurse answered respectfully.

An Xia looked at the nurse shaking the sickbed down, then shook Mrs. Qi's hand and said, "Grandma Qi, take a good rest. I'm going back first …"

After leaving the hospital.

Steward Wei asked An Xia, "Young Madam, you didn't ask this Old Lady Qi about the thunderblitz. For example, did he go to the place often …"

"No need to ask." An Xia looked at the sky above City Z and said, "She almost doesn't remember me, so how could she know where Lei would go? Furthermore, she even asked me why Qi Lei didn't come to visit her."

Butler Wei frowned, "So you're saying, that Thunder God really didn't come back?"

An Xia'er shook her head. "…" He's not coming back. "

With that, An Xia'er got into the car.

Zhan Qian sighed, "Now we can finally understand how Little Xia felt when she let Lei go. She didn't want to disappoint an old man, Xiao Xia has never met her biological parents before, and she felt sorry for an old granny who was related to her grandson."

"If that's the case, then that Lei should die even more." Steward Wei said coldly, "He ran off without caring about his elders."

"He knows Little Xia wouldn't do anything to his grandma, right?"

Zhan Qian also got on the car.

Butler Wei squinted his eyes.

He made a call to Lu Bai, "Eldest Young Master, you've come out of the hospital. Now, escort the young madam back to S City …" Yes, I didn't meet that lightning … "Rest assured, I will definitely send the young mistress back safely."

On the carriage, An Xia looked at the clear sky doll in her hands.

It was crocheted with white thread, with a smiley face above it and a little bell at the bottom...

After getting on the car, Zhan Qian took out two lollipops. "Want some?"

Anxia shook her head.

Zhan Qian peeled one off and started to eat. She glanced at the thing in her hand and asked, "What did you get from that old lady?"

An Xia nodded. "I told her that due to the heavy workload of the school, Lei couldn't come over to see her for a while."

An Xia'er's thumb caressed the sunny sky and her lips curled up into a helpless smile, "She said, if the medical fees are expensive, then let me talk to Qi Lei …" If she knew that Lei was involved in danger because of her medical fees, she would probably be very sad. "
