Leng Aotian held Leng An'an's hand, and then gently placed it in Gu Manman's hand.
Even if he doesn't have much time, he still wants to arrange everything for Leng An'an.
Because only in this way can he feel at ease.
"Manman, I have been troublesome to you all my life. And now, my child, I have to continue to trouble you."
"An'an is my only worry. After I leave, she will have no relatives around her. I hope you can take good care of her for me. I shouldn't have made such a request, but apart from you,
I really don’t know who to turn to.”
Every word he says now consumes a huge amount of his energy.
He coughed dryly, and his pale face gradually turned red under the sound of coughing.
Gu Manman held his hand tightly and responded: "How can this be trouble? Your child is my child, Gu Manman's, and the child of the Li family! What's more, An An is still my daughter-in-law, so I will naturally take her.
Treat her like your own daughter."
"We will always be her relatives."
Hearing this, he also smiled happily: "Thank you, Manman, I still don't know the kindness I owe you in this life. I will definitely pay you back in the next life."
Gu Manman sniffed, letting her eyes turn red, as if she had been numb from crying.
The tears never stopped, but she seemed not to feel them anymore.
She carefully took out the scarf from the bag and said, "Old man Leng, look, this is the scarf I knitted for you. I don't know if you like this style and color..."
The scarf is a simple scarf, a bright red scarf. The bright red scarf seems to represent the new and healthy life.
"Is this knitted for me?"
Leng Aotian looked at the big red scarf in front of him, his eyes filled with emotion.
Gu Manman nodded, then carefully wrapped the scarf around his neck, and carefully arranged the scarf around his neck.
Under the background of the scarf, Leng Aotian, who was originally weak, seemed to be a little more lively at this time.
His face was full of a smile of happiness and satisfaction, and his trembling hands stroked the warm scarf around his neck from time to time.
"It's so beautiful and warm. Even if I walk alone, I won't feel cold anymore..."
His words caused a burst of crying in the ward.
The entire ward seemed to be filled with suppressed cries and great sadness.
At this moment, the door of the ward was opened again, and Gu Zichen and Li Zichen also rushed over.
They were panting heavily, with beads of sweat on their foreheads.
It seems that he came here in a very hurry.
"Uncle Leng!"
"Uncle Leng!"
Leng Aotian tried his best to open his eyes and slowly looked at the two people in front of him, with a gentle smile on his lips.
It was as if what appeared in front of him now was not the grown-up Gu Zichen and Li Zichen, but them when they were children.
Scenes of memories of him getting along with Gu Zichen and Li Zichen when they were young came to mind.
His hands tightly covered the scarf around his neck, and he looked at everyone in the ward with relief, including a room full of relatives...
Here are the most important relatives to him.
And before he died, he could still see all his relatives, and he was already very satisfied.
"An'an, I am very lucky to be your father. In the next life, and the next life after that, I will find you again, and I will still be your father."
"Manman, my paradise world is enough for me to enjoy alone. You are not allowed to come down, I don't want to see you down there..."
"Gu Zichen, Li Zichen, remember what you promised me when you were young. You must protect your mother, and of course, my daughter."
"Ye Lan, after I leave, you have to remember to live your own life. Don't stay by my side anymore. After I leave, you will be free..."
He almost told everyone. At the last moment, he slowly closed his eyes: "Thank you, thank you for the warmth you brought to me..."
At the last moment, he muttered reluctantly in a voice that only he and Leng Anan could hear: "What a pity, I can't hear my little grandson call me grandpa..."
After saying that, Leng Aotian closed his reluctant eyes forever.
The machine on the side also made a beeping sound, and then, the line representing the ups and downs of the heartbeat of life gradually flattened into a straight line...
When he left, his hands tightly covered the scarf around his neck. His originally cold hands and cold body became warm and warm at this time.
This temperature comes from the scarf, but also from all the people in this big room.
Leng Aotian passed away peacefully, with no tears, no sadness, no regrets, and only the happy smile on the corner of his mouth.
"dad!"
"Master Leng!"
"Old man cold!"
"Old Leng!"
"Uncle Leng/Uncle Leng!"
For a moment, everyone yelled reluctantly. They rushed to the side of the hospital bed, all lay down, and hugged tightly the man who had lost his life long ago on the hospital bed.
Leng Anan was unwilling to accept this fact, and she kept shaking Leng Aotian's body.
"Dad, you won't leave, you won't leave me alone! Wake up! Wake up, I beg you, please..."
As she cried, she knelt on the ground. Her voice became more and more choked, and then became silent.
Gu Manman beat herself up blaming herself, "It's all my fault. I didn't realize something was wrong with Leng Aotian earlier. If, if I could have discovered earlier, maybe, maybe this wouldn't be the case."
"Wife, it's not your fault, it's all my fault, my fault..."
Li Jinze held her fist to prevent her from hurting herself.
He took the woman into his arms, and he, who had always been indifferent, shed a few tears.
Ye Lan looked very calm. She had already thought of this outcome.
Letting the tears wash away, she gently stroked the broken hair on Leng Aotian's forehead with her hands, arranging his hair.
"Young Master Leng, you asked me to call you Aotian, but I have been used to calling you Young Master Leng for decades. Just like I have been protecting you for decades, it has become an indispensable part of my life. You want me to go
Live your own life, I’m sorry, I can’t do it.”
She held Leng Aotian's face with her hands, then gently bent down and placed a gentle kiss on his forehead.
"You said you knew my thoughts a long time ago, but I never dared to say a word to you that I had been holding in my heart for decades. I have wanted to say this to you for a long time, but I didn't have the courage."
She seemed to recall the decades she spent with Leng Aotian, and burst into tears.
"Master Leng, I love you."
I love you, not that I like you. I love you and have protected you for decades. I love you, so I am willing to watch you pretend to be someone else in your heart, but I still can't stop loving you.
Leng Anan, who was overly sad, seemed unable to accept this blow. Her eyes gradually lost their brightness, and then she fainted on the ground: "Dad..."
