49 As Long as He’s Not Willing, No One Can Change His Decision

When Lin Qingqian received the call and rushed to the hospital, the old lady had already been transferred from the emergency department to the ward.

Jiang Yanshen, Madam Jiang, and Li Ruzhu were all there. A few servants from the Jiang Family were also there, filling most of the ward.

The old lady said in low spirits, “I’m fine. Go back…”

“Mother, you…” Madam Jiang wanted to say something, but she was interrupted by the old lady. “I said, go back.”

Although the old lady was not in good spirits, her gaze was as cold as a knife when she looked at Madam Jiang, making Madam Jiang’s heart tremble. She swallowed the words that were in her throat and said a few words of concern before pulling Li Ruzhu’s sleeve and going out.

When she turned around and saw Lin Qingqian standing at the door of the ward, a trace of disdain flashed across her eyes. She ignored her existence and walked out.

“Qianqian is here?” When the old lady saw Lin Qingqian, her expression instantly softened.

Lin Qingqian walked to the bed, her eyes clear as she asked with concern, “Grandma, are you alright?”

“I’m fine. I just accidentally sprained my ankle. I’ll be fine in two days.” The old lady revealed a gentle smile. She paused and said to her grandson, who was standing at the side, “You should go back too. Qianqian is enough to accompany me here.”

Jiang Yanshen was wearing a black suit. Be it the collar or cufflinks, they were buttoned up meticulously. However, his tie was a little crooked. It was obvious that he was anxious when he rushed over.

His dark eyes swept towards Lin Qingqian. When he passed by her, he stopped in his tracks and lowered his head to whisper in her ear, “I’ll leave Grandma in your care.”

Lin Qingqian did not speak, but the old lady stretched out her hand to her. “Come, come to Grandma and talk.”

Lin Qingqian held her wrinkled hand that was like a withered old tree trunk without any moisture and sat down in front of the bed. “Grandma.”

Old Madam Jiang looked at her and smiled, her eyes filled with disappointment. “In the blink of an eye, you’ve already grown so big. Yuanshan also passed away seven years ago. I still remember that when you first arrived at the Jiang family, your hair was tied into a ponytail. You were wearing a school uniform and carrying a school bag. You were small and thin. Just looking at you makes my heart ache.”

Lin Qingqian pursed her lips and smiled. “That’s right. I remember that at that time, Grandma asked the kitchen to cook delicious food for me every day. In the end, my nose bled in less than two days. I went to the hospital to see the doctor and they said that the food was too nourishing.”

The two of them looked at each other for a few seconds and laughed in unison.

The old lady rubbed her porcelain-white hand and said earnestly, “I owe your grandfather my entire life. It wasn’t easy for me to find him, but I didn’t expect to be separated from him forever. I only wanted to compensate you with everything I owed him, but I didn’t think if this was what you wanted.”

“Grandma…”

Just as Lin Qingqian opened her mouth, the old lady shook her head gently, indicating for her not to say anything.

“Grandma didn’t let you divorce Yanshen because of Grandma’s selfishness. Because I know that if he let you go, no one will treat him as well as you do.”

Lin Qingqian lowered her eyes and said indifferently, “He’s very good. In the future, there will be many very good girls who will love him.”

The old lady shook her head. “Qianqian, you don’t understand. Yanshen… has a much harder life than anyone else.

Back then, his parents were engaged by marriage and hated each other. They didn’t give Yanshen much love when they gave birth to him. And what about me?”

The old lady closed her eyes to hide her guilt and sighed. “I only taught him how to survive in such a wealthy family. I never cared about what he was thinking, causing him to be stubborn, arrogant, and never cared about the feelings of others.

You don’t know how happy I was when I found out that you liked Yanshen.”

To put it nicely, Jiang Yanshen’s personality was arrogant and conceited. To put it bluntly, it was twisted.

He did not care about the thoughts and feelings of the people around him and did not listen to any suggestions from the people around him. He was like a high and mighty king who was used to ruling the life and death of others and could not tolerate any disobedience.

She could still tolerate being by such a person’s side at first, but after a long time, anyone would eventually explode.

Even Lin Qingqian, who loved Jiang Yan deeply, was no exception.

“I know that feelings can’t be discussed in front of others, but I also know Yanshen…” The old lady looked at her with her deep eyes. “As long as he’s unwilling, no one can change his decision.”
