Refusing to marry into a wealthy family, the richest man's uncle coaxed me into marriage

Si Tong stood there, his lips and cheeks had lost their color, and his entire body was like extremely thin glass that seemed like it would shatter at the slightest touch.

Yu Shuhe was shocked and her face turned pale, "Auntie..."

Yu Wan Ning complained a lot but didn't dare to disobey her uncle. When she heard that Si Tong had heard her words, she was suddenly at a loss.

Si Tong turned around and left without saying a word.

Yu Shuhe hurriedly followed and wanted to explain, but after trying for a long time, he couldn't come up with a reasonable excuse.

Seeing Si Tong walking out of the main building, she stepped forward to stop Si Tong, "Aunt, you, you can't leave..."

Si Tong didn't look at Yu Shuhe. He had only one thought in his mind, to return to the Imperial Examination Hall.

She wanted to go back and see if her grandmother, aunt, and Yangyang were asleep.

Aunt Yang said they went to bed.

"Go and call my uncle!" Yu Shuhe shouted to the servant passing by.

Yu Hanshen finished his shower and prepared to go downstairs to pick up Si Tong to sleep. Just as he threw the towel he was using to wipe his hair on the sofa, there was a hurried knock on the door.

Before he could ask what was going on, the servant's anxious voice came: "Sir, something happened to the lady!"

Yu Hanshen walked quickly downstairs to the entrance. In addition to Yu Wanning, Yu Shuhe and Si Tong, there were two servants there.

Yu Shuhe ordered the two servants to stand in front of Si Tong and prevent her from leaving. Yu Shuhe hugged Si Tong's waist.

Yu Wan Ning stood aside with a guilty and panicked look on her face.

Yu Hanshen strode to Si Tong and hugged him in his arms. He glanced sharply at Yu Wanning's face and asked, "What did you do?"

Yu Wan Ning lowered her head, not daring to look her uncle in the eye.

"I want to go back to the Imperial Examination Hall, and I want to go back now." Si Tong raised his head from Yu Hanshen's arms.

Those cold eyes were unusually calm at this moment.

She said, "Grandma's legs have been hurting all day. I will definitely give them a good massage when I get home. My aunt likes chestnut cakes, so I'll buy her a box when we pass by Juweizhai. And Yangyang likes candy, so I'll buy her a pack of White Rabbit candies."

She spoke clearly and logically, but at a time like this, the calmer she was, the more abnormal it seemed.

Yu Hanshen tightened his arms, pressed Si Tong's head against his chest, and coaxed him softly:

"Okay, let's go back, but we have to change clothes first. We can't let grandma see you dressed like this, otherwise she will worry. You don't want her to worry about you, right?"

Before going downstairs, Si Tong put on a coat over her nightgown, exposing her white, straight calves and a small part of her thighs.

She nodded obediently, "Then let's go change."

After saying that, she wanted to run upstairs, but Yu Hanshen grabbed her arm, bent down and picked her up.

Passing by Yu Wanning, he turned his head and gave his niece a cold look, without stopping.

Yu Wan Ning turned pale after being looked at by that glance. A servant told Old Madam Yu about the matter. Old Madam Yu did not bother to pretend to be sick and hurried over to see what was going on. She only saw the back of Yu Hanshen carrying Si Tong upstairs.

Yu Shengde and Fu Yunrong were also alarmed. They went downstairs and heard Yu Wanning complaining behind her back. Si Tong heard it and immediately looked at Yu Wanning with reproach.

"You dislike Tongtong because of Zhan Yi. It's ok for you to say a few words behind her back on normal days, but how can you be so ignorant at a time like this?" Old Madam Yu pointed at Yu Wan Ning's nose.

Yu Wan Ning's eyes were red, and she was trembling with fear when thinking of her uncle's sharp eyes. But she couldn't help but whispered in defense: "How do I know that she would eavesdrop on me? She is sneaky because she has a problem with her character."

"You!" Upon hearing her unrepentant words, Old Madam Yu raised her hand in anger, but was stopped by Fu Yunrong.

Madam Yu pointed at Yu Wan Ning's nose again and said, "Let me tell you, if anything happens to the baby in Tong Tong's belly, I won't have a granddaughter like you who betrays me!"

Fu Yunrong looked at her daughter disappointedly, "Wan Ning, you went too far this time."

In the bedroom on the third floor, Si Tong was put down by Yu Hanshen. He immediately went to the wardrobe to get clothes and took down Yu Hanshen's clothes as well.

While handing it to him, she muttered, "Grandma hasn't seen me for two days. She doesn't say it, but she must be missing me very much. Maybe she's crying secretly under the quilt because she misses me so much. She's always like this."

"Yangyang loves to eat candy. She has developed cavities in her mouth because of eating too much. I don't let her eat it because it's for her own good. But as a child, she certainly doesn't understand the good intentions of adults. She only knows that she is sad that she can't eat candy. When she sees me buying her candy, she will be so happy that she will hug me and call me sister."

Si Tong is not a talkative person, but at this moment he seems to have endless things to say.

Yu Hanshen looked at her like this, and worry grew in his eyes.

When she went downstairs, she said to Madam Yu, "I'll go back to accompany grandma first, and come back to accompany you tomorrow."

Si Tong had a peaceful smile on his face, just like usual, as if he had forgotten that Madam Yu was still in a coma not long ago.

“Tongtong…” Old Madam Yu looked at her worriedly, wanting to comfort her, but at this moment, any words seemed pale and powerless. In the end, she could only tell Yu Hanshen: “Take good care of Tongtong.”

Along the way, Si Tong was talking to Yu Hanshen.

She said that when she was a child, her grandmother often came home very late and she was afraid to be alone. Later, she found that as long as she was sick, her grandmother would always be with her, so what she looked forward to most at that time was getting sick.

She said that there were always power outages at night in the summer, and it was too hot to sleep, so her grandmother would fan her all night long, and even when she was half asleep, she would still be fanned.

When they were in their second year of high school, their uncle made some money in business and brought them to Haicheng. In fact, my grandmother was reluctant to leave the house in her hometown, but in order for her to have better conditions for studying, she reluctantly left the home where she had lived all her life.

Later, when my uncle got into trouble and was at the end of his rope, he sold the old house where he had lived all his life.

"How about we buy the old house back quietly? Then we can give grandma a surprise. She will definitely be very happy."

Si Tong said, feeling a little distressed, "I just don't know if the current owner is willing to sell it."

At this time, Maybach drove into Huahe Hospital.

Seeing the familiar outpatient building, Si Tong suddenly became quiet.

She was quietly taken out of the intensive care unit by Yu Hanshen. Through the glass, she saw two familiar figures inside, one big and one small, with tubes inserted all over their bodies.

The machine next to it was beeping regularly, indicating that the person on the bed was still alive.

Mo Xubei comforted him: "You came at the right time. He just woke up. I was just about to call you to tell you."

"If the person is awake, it means there won't be any major problems. Observe him overnight. If there are no emergencies, he can be transferred to the ward tomorrow."

Si Tong seemed not to hear anything, and stared at the people in the ICU. After a long while, she slowly turned her head and murmured, "Where's grandma?"

She didn't cry or make a fuss, but just looked at Yu Hanshen quietly with a pair of eyes, and said in an unusually firm tone: "Take me to see her."

Yu Hanshen hugged her tightly, and the strength in his arms gradually increased.

Grandma was still in the original hospital. Mo Xubei called the dean, who asked Yu Hanshen to take people there directly.

Si Tong didn't know how he got to his grandmother.

She could not connect the figure covered with white cloth in front of her with the relative who had shown her the eternal lantern with a happy face not long ago.

She reached out and wanted to lift the white cloth to confirm.

Yu Hanshen did not stop her, but just held her waist firmly and gave her strength silently.

The white cloth slipped off, revealing a lifeless face. Grandma had her eyes closed, as if she was asleep, but she would never open her eyes again.

Si Tong stared blankly, all her thoughts withdrawn at this moment, her brain buzzed, the whole world spun, and her eyes went dark.
