Dignity and love
Ji Luohan was stunned and looked at her wordlessly for a long time.
"That night on stage, I said thank you. Actually, I want to thank you...... Forgive me. Lin Shuang's eyes turned red, "But now...... Have you really forgiven me? After asking this, Lin Shuang was extremely disappointed and turned to leave.
Ji Luohan was the only one left in the locker room, with a complex and deep expression.
When Lin Shuang drove to the manor alone, Steward Li was already waiting at the door.
Seeing her, Steward Li said, "The old lady has been waiting for you." ”
I've been waiting for you...... Lin Shuang was shocked, she always thought that in this world, the last person the old man should want to see before he left was her.
"Hurry up." Steward Li urged again, and this tense atmosphere suddenly reminded Lin Shuang of the scene when her mother passed away.
After handing over the car to the servant, she quickly followed Steward Li upstairs.
The old lady's room did not have the serious scene of doctors and nurses busy, and incense wafted in the space, as before.
And the old lady sat at the head of the bed, combing her hair unhurriedly in front of the mirror, not at all like a person who was about to die, but looked more energetic than usual.
"Old lady." Lin Shuang said hello politely, and Mrs. Dong looked back at her with a voice, and then showed a kind smile at her.
This smile, Lin Shuang seemed to have never seen before, and couldn't help but be shocked.
"Come, come." In the next second, Mrs. Dong put down the comb in her hand and waved at her, "Help me put on my makeup." ”
Lin Shuang was stunned, walked over and sat down on the chair next to the bed. Butler Li, with red eyes, took out a cosmetic bag from the cabinet, placed it on the bedside table, and then withdrew.
"It's been a long time since I've put on makeup, and I don't know if it's expired." Mrs. Dong was still smiling.
Hearing this, Lin Shuang stood up, opened the makeup bag, deliberately glanced at the production date, and then said, "It's not expired." ”
"It's okay if it's expired." Mrs. Dong said and patted herself beside her, "Sit here." ”
Lin Shuang nodded, and then began to make up the old lady meticulously.
"People, come to this world for a walk, say long and short." When she was putting on her makeup, Mrs. Dong continued to smile calmly and said, "When you leave, you still have to pack up." I told Steward Li that I closed my eyes and didn't let anyone else touch me. ”
Lin Shuang's movements paused, knowing that it was meaningless to say this, but he still couldn't help but say, "The old lady still has to live to be a hundred years old." ”
"A hundred?" Mrs. Dong smiled, "Silly boy, I'm returning to the light now, and I know better than anyone else in my heart." ”
Lin Shuang was not a person who could talk and comfort people, so he could only stop and didn't know what to answer.
Mrs. Dong looked at her, still smiling: "Girl, we have a fate, I know what kind of character you are, so ...... Let's just stay quiet for a while, and don't say anything. ”
"Old Lady ......"
"Call me grandma. I haven't heard you call me grandma in years. ”
Lin Shuang looked at the old man in front of her, her strength and coldness disappeared completely, only those amiable eyes were full of wind and frost, and there was regret.
"What? Still hate me? Don't want to call me grandma anymore? ”
"It's not." Lin Shuang hurriedly replied, "Grandma." ”
Mrs. Dong nodded with a smile, reached out and took her hand to caress it: "I really didn't expect that in my last days, the person who was with me would be you, a girl." Fate, it's also sin. ”
Lin Shuang felt the coldness of her hand, and didn't know how to respond for a while. Yes, from the very beginning, everything was sin, so many grievances and grievances, it was like a dream.
"Actually, sometimes seeing you is like seeing me when I was young."
Lin Shuang was stunned.
Mrs. Dong smiled, and then continued: "Actually, my background is not good. The family is poor, and there are not many books. It wasn't until I met Luo Han's grandfather that my fate changed completely.
"I suffered a lot from a marriage that was not in the right household. Fortunately, Luo Han's grandfather never gave up on me. It's a pity that he left early. At that time, people said that it was because of my blessing that I took away his blessing.
"So I swore that I must keep this home, and I must make this home more brilliant in my hands than before, and it can be regarded as repaying Grandpa Luo Han's affection for me."
Lin Shuang had never heard the old lady say this, and suddenly she understood her attachment to the portal, and all the things she had done because of this dedication.
"Grandma." She couldn't help but ask, "All this...... Is it worth it? I lost my son, but I also lost my grandson......"
Mrs. Dong was not surprised by this, but smiled gently: "Everyone has his obsession. If not, would you still be human?! ”
Lin Shuang's heart was sour after hearing this. Yes, people have attachments, whether they are good or bad.
"Girl, do you still hate me?"
"Hate." Lin Shuang replied honestly, "But...... I don't know when it started, but I realized that I didn't want to hate it. Because hating people is a tiring thing. And being hated by others, I am not as endurable as I imagined. ”
Old Mrs. Dong smiled and patted her hands: "At the beginning, I agreed to Luo Han's condition and didn't stop you from meeting again, do you know why?" ”
"Because compared to a granddaughter-in-law who doesn't know what happened, it is more important to be able to find the heir of the family."
Old Mrs. Dong smiled and shook her head: "I'm making a bet." ”
"Bet on what?"
"Bet on you."
Lin Shuang looked at her incomprehensibly.
"Actually, you love Luo Han in your heart, don't you?"
Hearing this question suddenly, Lin Shuang was stunned for a long time, and then shook his head without saying anything.
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Dong smiled knowingly: "Tell you a secret." At that time, when Grandpa Luo Han confessed to me, I directly told him that I didn't like him and asked him not to come to me again. ”
"Actually...... Do you like him? ”
Old Mrs. Dong nodded: "I like him." But...... He is so good, so dazzling, he can marry a young lady. And I, I have nothing but my dignity. So...... I can only ...... in this most stupid way Protect what I have left. ”
After listening, Lin Shuang's eyes were already red, and she suddenly understood a lot of things. The old man in front of her, who was once so cruel that she hated and feared, has actually always been the one who knows herself best.
"Girl." In the next second, Old Lady Dong let out a long sigh and held her hand tighter, "I wanted to bet on your choice between dignity and love. Fall in love with Ji Luohan...... Your dignity will be the burial of this love. ”
Lin Shuang's shoulders tightened, and he didn't understand for a moment. What is she indicating? Are you trying to persuade her to turn back? Is it a final effort to break them up?
"A woman...... What happens if you don't even have dignity? The old lady then asked.
Lin Shuang's face sank: "She can only rely on a man's love to live." And this love cannot be the same forever. ”
"If you are asked to turn back at this time, will you go back?" The old lady looked at her intently, and her eyes suddenly became sharp.
