Jiang Xin reacted and her mind was blank, but she still did not want to give up. “Grandpa, was it Jing Chen who gave you the idea? He found me a man like Kang Xu because he didn’t want to marry me, right? But Grandpa, don’t you usually dote on me the most? Believe me, okay? Jing Chen and I will definitely be very happy. Just fulfill my wish!”
Jiang Xin covered her chest in heartache and almost knelt down.
However, Jiang Tian was unmoved, as if he was determined.
However, Jiang Tian was also suffering in his heart. After his son and daughter-in-law died, his granddaughter was the only one left. If he was still alive, he could continue to dote on her, but he did not have much time left.
“Xinxin, Grandpa has made up his mind this time. I’ve considered this Kang Xu carefully. You have to marry him!” Jiang Tian suppressed the pain in his heart and his voice trembled
But Jiang Xin was in a daze and did not hear the struggle in Jiang Tian’s tone. “Okay, then I’ll go look for Jing Chen!”
With that, Jiang Xin ran out.
“Xinxin, come back!”
Jiang Tian wanted to stop Jiang Xin, but he was old and could not move as well as young people. He could only chase after her and shout. Suddenly, he felt a pain in his chest and it became difficult for him to breathe. He fell back.
“Master fainted! Quick, call the ambulance!” Seeing this, the butler quickly went forward to support Jiang Tian and shouted at the servants beside him.
Hearing the shout, Jiang Xin turned around and saw that Jiang Tian was already leaning against the butler with his eyes closed. She was shocked and couldn’t care less about looking for Jing Chen. She ran to Jiang Tian’s side and shouted worriedly, “Grandpa, Grandpa, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me!”
The ambulance arrived quickly and Jiang Tian was sent to the hospital.
“What? Terminal cancer? He only has less than three months left?”
Four hours after Jiang Tian was sent to the emergency room, Jiang Xin heard this bad news from the doctor. She immediately lost her balance and almost staggered to the ground.
The doctor shook his head regretfully.
Jiang Xin returned to Jiang Tian’s ward and sat in front of his bed for the entire night. She looked at Jiang Tian, who was still unconscious, and tears flowed silently.
The next day, Jing Chen was grading documents in his office when the door opened. He looked up and saw Jiang Xin, who was not in good spirits and had heavy eyes. He was shocked, but he quickly calmed down.
“How did you become like this?” Jing Chen frowned slightly and asked.
“Jing Chen, Grandpa fainted and was hospitalized yesterday. The doctor told me that Grandpa has cancer and he only has less than three months left. I’m so sad.”
Jiang Xin held back her tears and looked worried.
“After Mom and Dad left, Grandpa is my only family in this world. But the heavens still want to take him away. Why are the heavens so cruel?!”
With that, Jiang Xin couldn’t help but hug herself. She squatted down and started crying.
Jing Chen sighed and slowly helped her up. “Jiang Xin, Old Master Jiang didn’t tell you because he feared you would be too sad. He just wants you to live happily.”
Hearing this, Jiang Xin suddenly looked up at Jing Chen in disbelief. “Do you already know?”
“Yes.” Jing Chen nodded. “But that was my promise, that’s why I didn’t tell you.”
“Did Grandpa not let you tell me?”
Jing Chen was silent, which meant that it was true.
Jiang Xin smiled bitterly and then thought of something. “What about marrying Kang Xu? It was your suggestion to Grandpa, right? Is it Grandpa’s last wish to let me marry him?”
Jing Chen paused for a moment before saying slowly, “I’m sorry, it was indeed my suggestion for you to marry Kang Xu. Old Master Jiang is seriously ill. Considering that the only person he’s worried about is you, he will only want to pave the way for the rest of your life before his life ends. And Kang Xu is indeed the best choice compared to many people. The Kang family is rich and he’s the only son. If you marry him, his family will definitely treat you well.”
After Jiang Xin heard this, she experienced the last struggle in her heart. Then, she gritted her teeth and nodded. “Okay, I’ll marry him! Since it’s Grandpa’s last wish, I’ll fulfill it for him.”
“Jiang Xin, you don’t have to be afraid. I’ve already promised Mr. Jiang that I’ll treat you like my biological sister. The Jing Family will become your family,” Jing Chen comforted her.
