The prince of Beijing circle is unattainable, and asks her to take responsibility at night

The warm palm touched her body.

Jiang Zhi opened his eyes subconsciously.

Shang Yanjing's actions startled Jiang Zhi slightly. She raised her head and her eyes met his, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Zhi's voice was a little tired, but more calm.

Shang Yanjing gently helped her sit down again, then sat on the chair next to her, with a hint of concern in his tone, "How is your grandma?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Shang Yanjing reached out and gently held Jiang Zhi's hand, "Do you really have to make trouble with me like this?"

Making trouble?

So she... was just making a fuss?

"I'm not messing with you, we're really done! Shang Yanjing, you're pestering me like this, are you really tired of playing with me?"

The woman's eyes were cold as ice.

Although Jiang Zhi's words were calm, they revealed an unquestionable determination.

Shang Yanjing's hands stiffened slightly. He looked at Jiang Zhi, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Jiang Zhi." Shang Yanjing's voice was low and powerful as he tried to explain, "I..."

Jiang Zhi withdrew her hand. The coldness in her eyes was gone, replaced by fatigue and helplessness.

"Shang Yanjing. Please leave. I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore."

Shang Yanjing was silent for a moment, his eyes lingering on Jiang Zhi's tired face.

Without saying a word, Shang Yanjing turned and left.

In the hospital corridor, his back looked somewhat lonely under the dim light.

Jiang Zhi looked at his departing back, a complex emotion welling up in her heart, but she quickly turned her attention back to her grandmother's hospital bed.

Time passed silently, and Jiang Zhi stayed by her grandmother's bedside until late at night.

Her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally she slowly closed her eyes in drowsiness.

When Shang Yanjing came in in the middle of the night, Jiang Zhi was sleeping soundly.

He picked her up and placed her on the sofa on the side.

Only when he fell asleep could he get a little closer to him.

He reached out and squeezed her palm, intertwining their fingers.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into the ward through the window, Jiang Zhi slowly opened his eyes.

She found herself sleeping on the accompanying bed in the old lady's ward, and the grandmother on the bed had her eyes open and her breathing was steady.

"Grandma..." Jiang Zhi immediately got out of bed and called softly, afraid of disturbing the old woman's rest.

"Zhi'er, you're awake." Although grandma's voice was weak, it was full of warmth and love.

Jiang Zhi grabbed the old lady's hand.

"Grandma, how are you feeling?"

"Much better." Grandma smiled, but Jiang Zhi could tell at a glance that the old lady was ill.

She must have mistaken her for Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi held grandma's hand tightly.

"Grandma, you must get better soon."

"Zhi'er, you have to take care of yourself too and don't be too tired." Grandma's voice was full of concern.

"I will, grandma." Jiang Zhi nodded, with a determined light in his eyes.

Just then, the door of the ward was gently pushed open, and a nurse walked in with a medicine tray in her hand.

"Good morning, grandma. It's time to take your medicine."

Jiang Zhi stood up, took the medicine tray from the nurse, and carefully helped her grandmother take the medicine.

"Zhi'er, go to school. You don't have to stay here with me."

The nurse glanced at Jiang Zhi and listened to her say, "Today is the weekend, I will stay here with grandma."

"it is good."

Jiang Zhi didn't see Shang Yanjing that day.

She was busy with the old lady's affairs and hardly ever stopped.

In the afternoon, Dr. Lin called her into his office.

"Jiang Zhi, there is something I need to tell you."

Jiang Zhi subconsciously felt that something bad was happening, and his heart tightened instantly.

As expected, as soon as Dr. Lin opened his mouth, Jiang Zhi's heart sank to the bottom.

"The old lady has early-stage peripheral lung cancer in the posterior apex of her left upper lobe...it's been confirmed to be in the late stage." Doctor Lin's expression changed slightly. "The cells are spreading too rapidly. Given the old lady's age, chemotherapy will be of little use..."

The old lady is old.

nowadays.

Even without chemotherapy, it would have already...

"Her condition is not optimistic. Danger can occur at any time. You must be prepared at all times."

Jiang Zhi's heart trembled.

Jiang Zhi was still feeling elated until she walked out.

In the past, even though the old lady had other problems, big and small, she was always able to deal with them.

But now...it's the advanced stage of lung cancer.

Up to three months.

Jiang Zhi suddenly didn't know what to do.

As she walked into the ward, she heard a familiar voice. As soon as she entered, she saw Shang Yanjing sitting at the other end.

The old lady laughed happily. I don’t know what Shang Yanjing said to her to make her laugh.

"Zhizhi, come quickly."

The old lady took care of her.

Shang Yanjing raised his eyes.

His eyes fell on Jiang Zhi's face. She didn't get enough rest last night, and her face looked very haggard.

"Zhizhi, you didn't even tell grandma about your relationship." Grandma's voice was filled with a hint of relief, "You're not a child anymore. You've been delayed for so long by that brat from the Lu family, and it's time..."

Jiang Zhi felt mixed emotions as she remembered what Dr. Lin had said.

"Grandma, you should have a good rest first. I want to talk to him." Jiang Zhi walked to the bedside and said softly to grandma.

As the two walked into the corridor, Jiang Zhi's cold voice rang out, "Shang Yanjing, can you please let me go?"

Shang Yanjing's eyes flashed with complexity, and he grabbed her wrist, "Jiang Zhi, you should know that if I don't let go, you can't go anywhere."

Jiang Zhi was stunned for a moment. She looked up at the man on the other end. Shang Yanjing was certainly capable enough to prevent her from going anywhere.

But Jiang Zhi is not someone else.

Her eyes darkened slightly.

Under the light, the man's handsome face gradually became bigger.

Until it is right within reach.

Jiang Zhi pushed him away.

"Shang Yanjing!"

Shang Yanjing glanced at her cold face and said, "Your grandmother's illness can't be delayed any longer. I will transfer her to the imperial capital."

"……unnecessary."

After Shang Yanjing's reminder, she suddenly felt that it made sense.

But go to the imperial capital.

She can also arrange for her grandmother to go herself.

"Jiang Zhi, stop being childish. Listen to me this time. I've already asked Qian Ze to arrange a hospital. We'll be there in three days..."

But Jiang Zhi didn't expect that the old lady didn't wait until the third day.

When Jiang Zhi received the call, he was in the cafeteria buying the old lady's favorite soup dumplings.

The soup dumplings were all scattered on the ground, and the dense soup was all spilled on Jiang Zhi's legs, but she didn't feel anything at this time. When she hurried to the old lady's room, the old lady was lying there quietly.

He no longer had the look on his face that he had when he was telling her jokes last night.

"grandmother………"

The old lady's hands were already cold.
