Chapter 990: You Are Old
Due to Lin Jianping's condition, the meeting can only take place in the hospital room.
Fang Miao and Lin Hao were waiting at the hospital entrance early.
A top-tier silver car slowly drove up.
Lin Hao looked in surprise, "I heard there are only three of these cars in the country. Is the Yue Family really this rich now?"
Fang Miao's smile froze on her face, her eyebrows furrowing darkly.
All of this should have been hers! Damn Lin Chunju!
In the car, the driver arranged by Jiang Jingze asked softly, "Should I stop in front of this building?"
Lin Chunju had already seen Fang Miao, "Yes, right over there."
"Okay."
The driver got out and respectfully opened the car door at the back.
Inviting Lin Chunju and Yue Qingqing out.
Today Lin Chunju had specially changed into a new outfit and did her hair in the morning.
She looked full of spirit, faintly showing the beauty of her youth.
Fang Miao had already replaced her expression with a smile, warmly greeting them.
"Chunju, we haven't seen each other for such a long time. We're getting old in the blink of an eye."
Saying this, she reached out to support Lin Chunju.
But Lin Chunju turned to her granddaughter at this moment, "I told you it's cold today. Why don't you wear more? Look how lightly you're dressed."
Yue Qingqing replied with a smile, "Grandma, I'm not cold."
As she spoke, Lin Chunju naturally avoided Fang Miao's hand.
Damn, she did it on purpose!
Fang Miao gritted her molars, thinking that in the past she would have likely made a few sarcastic remarks.
But now that she needed Lin Chunju, she could only maintain her smile and keep chatting.
"Oh, have you met your eldest nephew yet? My brother and I had Xiaohao quite late; he's a late-born child."
Lin Hao quickly called out "Aunt."
Lin Chunju looked at Lin Hao, faintly seeing the resemblance to her brother in his youth.
Unfortunately, it was just a likeness.
Lin Chunju gave a perfunctory response, then walked toward the building.
"How is brother doing now?"
Fang Miao shook her head, "Not good, alas, don't know when he might..."
Lin Chunju turned her head away, not wanting Fang Miao to see her tears.
Fang Miao's eyes flickered.
"You've been close since you were young. I believe if there's any way to save old Lin's life, you'd do anything, right?"
Lin Chunju didn't reply, just walked beside Fang Miao, heading towards the hospital room.
Until they reached the hospital room door, the group stopped.
Yue Qingqing stayed beside Lin Chunju.
Noticing her grandma's eyes getting redder, her body trembling involuntarily.
Just a door apart.
Between them lay decades of time and unspoken misunderstandings.
Lin Hao felt a bit concerned and cautiously advised, "Dad can't handle any agitation now; to prevent any problems, Aunt, please be careful with your words."
Lin Chunju gave Lin Hao a deep look.
Lin Hao's heart skipped a beat.
The old lady's gaze seemed to see right through to the darkest corners of his heart, preventing Lin Hao from daring to meet her eyes.
Fang Miao chimed in, "There are many things to be careful of. I'll accompany you inside, and if anything goes wrong, we can keep an eye on it."
Actually, she was worried Lin Chunju might say something inappropriate.
In comparison, many things might get revealed.
Lin Chunju neither agreed nor objected, only gently pushed the door open.
The door opened little by little, as if it weighed a thousand pounds.
Lin Jianping had long craned his neck; if he could see clearly, and his health permitted, he would probably be standing at the hospital room door waiting.
"Chunju? Is it you? Come closer; my eyes aren't good now, I can't see you clearly."
Lin Chunju suppressed her excitement as she walked toward the hospital bed.
Finally reaching the bedside, Lin Jianping squinted, trying his best to recognize her as he struggled to sit up in bed.
As if this way, he could see clearer.
Lin Chunju looked at Lin Jianping, his hair now white, for a moment unable to hold back her tears.
"Brother!"
"You've grown old."
