Chapter 140: Death
Chapter 140: Death
Wan Xinghan: "Lieque, Cancan and I will always be by your side."
Qiao Lieque: “Thank you.”
Qiao Lie was sleepless that night. He stood on the observation deck on the second floor for half the night, looking in the direction of Orange's house.
Compared to Qiao Lieque's entanglement, Juzi has now let it go. After returning from Yanliangshan, Juzi was moved, but because the two of them retreated at the same time, her beating heart cooled down again, but she still thinks about him and feels palpitations occasionally.
Until she heard that Qiao Lieque had beaten Fan Hongyan, although Juzi was touched, she lost interest because she was afraid of Qiao Lieque beating Fan Hongyan with his fists and kicks.
Orange had no classes in the afternoon that day, so she went to the pharmacy to buy some medicinal herbs to make skin care products. She met Grandpa Bai who also came to the pharmacy to buy medicine.
Grandpa Bai hesitated for a while and said to Juzi, "Xiaoju, can you take me home?"
Juzi stared at Grandpa Bai for a moment and said, "Okay."
When they arrived at Grandpa Bai's house, Grandma Bai was very excited to see Juzi. Juzi's heart skipped a beat when he saw Grandma Bai's expression.
Grandma Bai's face looked very bad, grayish white, which was a typical sign of death. Juzi felt her head was a little swollen. She didn't dare to tell Grandpa Bai directly, so she had to secretly call Qiao Lieque: "Lieque, can you come to the Bai family? I think your grandma is not well."
When Qiao Lieque heard this, he said anxiously, "I'll be there right away."
Only after Qiao Lieque arrived did Orange feel at ease.
Grandpa Bai was also very happy to see Qiao Lieque: "Lieque is here, your grandma was calling you just now."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Grandma Bai shout, "Xiuhua."
Qiao Lieque went over and held Grandma Bai's hand: "Grandma, I'm Lieque, your grandson."
Grandma Bai's eyes kept turning. She held Qiao Lieque's hand tightly and said weakly, "Lieque, your mother is here. I saw her just now."
Qiao Lieque was stunned. Grandpa Bai said, "Your grandma thinks Xiaoju is your mother."
After listening to this, Orange felt a chill on his back.
Qiao Lieque secretly asked Juzi: "Do you think my grandma is dying?"
Orange nodded: "It's estimated that it will take less than six hours. Why don't you talk to your grandpa and let him be mentally prepared? I think your grandpa doesn't seem to realize it yet."
Qiao Lieque said, "Wait a minute, let me ask my dad first."
After Qiao Lieque finished the call, he said to Ju Zi, "My dad said he'll be here soon. There's a flight to Long City in two hours, but it'll take at least five or six hours to get there."
Qiao Lieque thought for a while and said, "Let's get some food first. If my grandpa knew that my grandma was dying, he might not be able to eat."
Orange said, "Hmm," "I'll go buy some."
Qiao Lieque shook his head: "Let's make it at home. My grandpa doesn't like to eat outside food."
While Juzi was buying food, Qiao Lieque called Wan Xinghan and said, "Xinghan, bring some of your good classmates to my grandpa's house later. My grandma may be leaving soon."
Wan Xinghan: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Qiao Lieque: "Don't come now, my grandfather isn't ready yet. Come after dinner when I've finished talking to him."
Orange came back soon, and Qiao Lieque worked with Orange to quickly prepare four dishes and a soup.
Grandpa Bai looked at the clock and said, "It's a bit early. It's only four o'clock?"
Juzi smiled and said, "Grandpa Bai, please try the cooking skills of Lieque and I."
The three of them had just taken two bites of their meal when Grandma Bai suddenly shouted, "Xiuhua, Xiuhua..."
Several people hurried over, and Grandma Bai suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Juzi. Juzi felt as if a ray of light pierced through her heart, and she was so scared that she grabbed Qiao Lieque tightly.
