Chapter 483: They Will All Be Just Fine

~7 min read 1,322 words

Just at this moment—

The door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open by someone!

Li Beijue collided head-on with the rushing Jiang Chenghao, grabbed his arm in the process, and looked at Jiang Baobao with some surprise.

"Stop him! I'll go find the Doctor!"

Jiang Baobao instantly felt much more at ease; after dropping that sentence, she ran out of the hospital room without looking back.

In less than a minute, she came running back in a hurry, bringing a Doctor with her.

Inside the room, Li Beijue had already tried his best to pin Jiang Chenghao onto the bed.

As soon as Jiang Baobao entered, she saw that Jiang Chenghao was still struggling incessantly.

The Doctor moved quickly; seeing that he had lost control, the Doctor hurriedly took out the Zhentingji that had been prepared in advance and injected it directly.

Jiang Chenghao's entire body stiffened violently for a moment, his movements instantly becoming much smaller, and he slowly quieted down.

Only then did Li Beijue withdraw his strength and straighten out his suit, which had become somewhat disheveled from the struggle.

"President Li, this injection should allow the patient to sleep for 6 to 12 hours, depending on his own condition. Do you think... there is still a need for a detailed examination?"

The Doctor asked cautiously.

"No need."

Jiang Baobao spoke up first, looking with some helplessness at Jiang Chenghao, who had fallen back into a deep sleep.

Li Beijue also nodded in agreement.

Thereupon, the Doctor turned and left.

"What happened just now?"

Li Beijue finally had the time to ask about the situation from a moment ago.

Jiang Baobao was also full of confusion. After pondering for two seconds, she replied, "I don't know what happened either. I had just gone to wash up when I suddenly heard Uncle fall off the bed, and then he kept saying 'leave,' as if he didn't want to stay here..."

As Jiang Baobao spoke, she couldn't help but frown slightly with worry.

With Uncle like this now, they couldn't just keep injecting him with Zhentingji...

He didn't want to stay here; could it be that... he wanted to return to the Jiang Family Villa?

How could that be possible?

Jiang Baobao bit her lower lip hard, feeling at a loss for what to do for a moment.

Fortunately, the Zhentingji had a long duration, leaving her with enough time to think.

Li Beijue was also frowning slightly. He suddenly glanced at the snow-white walls of the hospital room and suddenly thought of something.

"Is it possible that he doesn't like the environment here? Why don't we take him back to the Li Mansion first? There is a garden there, which at first glance should be similar. Perhaps it could help him stabilize, and the environment would be quieter..."

Li Beijue said slowly.

Jiang Baobao was taken aback upon hearing this. After carefully pondering his words for a long while, she made a decision instantly and nodded in agreement: "That would be for the best. Let's take Uncle back now!"

The two did not dare to delay and immediately had people wheel Jiang Chenghao out of the hospital room and send him to a specialized vehicle.

Jiang Baobao, however, was not in a hurry to leave; there was still one important matter to attend to.

Li Beijue had people settle Jiang Chenghao in, then accompanied Jiang Baobao to the morgue.

"Go in."

Li Beijue patted Jiang Baobao's shoulder gently, wanting to give her some strength.

Jiang Baobao nodded, then took a step forward and walked in.

The temperature inside the room was somewhat low.

Seeing the elderly woman lying flat not far away, Jiang Baobao did not feel the slightest bit of fear.

She softened her footsteps, as if afraid of disturbing her eternal rest, and did not stop until she stood by her side, at which point she took hold of her already stiff hand.

"Grandma..."

Jiang Baobao called out softly, then immediately took a deep breath, not wanting her tears to fall.

She quickly adjusted her emotions and then slowly said, "Don't worry, the Lu Family will soon receive their retribution. As for Uncle's illness, I will definitely cure it! From now on, every year, we will come to visit you together... If you see my mom and dad in heaven, please tell them not to worry, that Uncle and I... will both be just fine."

After finishing, Jiang Baobao stepped back slightly and finally bowed deeply to the elderly woman.

Outside—

Li Beijue stared at the direction of the doorway with some worry.

He had expected Jiang Baobao to stay for a while, but to his surprise, she walked out after only a few minutes.

"Baobao."

Li Beijue hurriedly stepped forward, took her cold fingers in his, and said in a low voice, "I will have people send Grandma's remains to the funeral home shortly, and as for the follow-up..."

"I will arrange the follow-up matters myself."

Jiang Baobao pulled herself together, her tone very firm as she said, "I want to handle Grandma's funeral personally."

"Alright."

Li Beijue did not say anything more, only carefully shielding her in his arms as they walked forward, step by step.

One hour later—

Jiang Chenghao was safely brought to the Li Mansion.

The three little ones happened to all be at home, and as soon as they saw someone being carried in, they all immediately crowded around.

"Mommy! Who is that uncle?"

Watching Jiang Chenghao being settled into the guest room, Mobai hurriedly asked Jiang Baobao.

Before Jiang Baobao could answer, she heard Yanbao ask: "Mommy! What's wrong with your eyes? Why are they a bit swollen? Have you been crying?"

Yanbao's tone was full of concern.

Hearing this, Tiantian immediately looked at Jiang Baobao nervously and asked loudly, "Mommy, why are you crying? Did Daddy bully you again!"

Li Beijue had just entered the door when he heard this crisp questioning, and he was momentarily caught between laughter and tears, hurriedly shaking his head.

"The three of you, stop asking. Mommy is in a bad mood today, be good."

He explained helplessly, looking at Jiang Baobao with some worry.

As soon as the three little ones heard that Jiang Baobao was in a bad mood, they immediately became much better behaved, leaving only three pairs of big eyes looking at her with concern.

Jiang Baobao sighed, pulled the three of them along, and turned to sit down on the sofa.

Only then did she speak in a low voice: "Mommy's grandmother, your great-grandmother, passed away yesterday..."

"Ah... so that's how it is..."

The three little ones suddenly realized.

Although they were not very old, they all understood what "passed away" meant.

Tiantian was the first to react, hurriedly pulling on Jiang Baobao to comfort her: "Mommy, don't be sad. If you are sad, Great-Grandmother will definitely be sad too when she looks down at you from heaven!"

Yanbao also hurriedly followed up and said: "That's right, Mommy, don't be sad anymore..."

Jiang Baobao nodded, then heard Mobai also speak earnestly: "Mommy, didn't you tell us before that when everyone reaches an old age, there will be a day when they leave this world? Decades from now, you will also leave us. You also said to let us not be sad, as long as we are happy every day, you will also be very happy watching us from heaven!"

Jiang Baobao was stunned upon hearing this, and the softest part of her heart felt as if it had been poked by something, sending a wave of soreness through her.

If she could have fulfilled her filial duty by her grandmother's side and let her pass away peacefully of old age, naturally there would be no regrets.

But when she left... she clearly died with her eyes wide open in resentment!

How exactly did the Lu Family kill Grandmother!
