A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1670 - 353: Past Events and the Mysterious Grandfather
"Impossible, weren’t you the one by her side back then?"
Doctor Hua sneered, "Qiao Bowen, you really are getting senile. Even if I knew where her grave is, why should I tell you? You old bastard, if it weren’t for you, would she have died?"
The light in the old man’s eyes gradually dimmed, turning into a pool of stagnant water, unable to stir any ripples.
"It’s all my fault...."
He sank into deep remorse and self-blame, holding his head and sobbing bitterly.
"Alright, alright, how many years has it been? A grown man crying like that, isn’t it shameful?"
The old man suddenly clutched his neck, gasping violently, his face turning crimson red. Doctor Hua realized something was wrong and shouted outside, "Yun Ya."
Yun Ya rushed in with a medical kit.
Qiao Yi followed behind.
"Number two silver needle." Doctor Hua instructed Yun Ya, while he helped the old man regulate his breathing.
Yun Ya opened the medical kit, unfurled the cloth, and handed the needed silver needle to Doctor Hua. Watching Doctor Hua move with lightning speed, he quickly inserted it into the old man’s acupoints. Gradually, the old man’s breathing steadied, and he started gasping for air.
Doctor Hua wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "You old codger, torturing me at a time like this. Are you satisfied? You think dying will free you? You haven’t atoned for your sins yet, so why die now?"
Yun Ya looked at the old man on the big bed; he looked very old, similar to his great grandfather’s age. However, Yun Ya knew he wasn’t as old as he appeared.
The old man slowly opened his eyes and suddenly laughed, "I must be dead, otherwise how could I see you?"
Yun Ya found this old man strange, staring at her with foolish laughter.
"Is this heaven?"
"Or hell...."
Doctor Hua slapped him on the face, "Hey, wake up, stop daydreaming. You’re still alive."
The old man suddenly came to his senses, shuddering in disbelief as he pointed at Yun Ya, "You... you...."
Yun Ya touched her face, "What is it?"
Doctor Hua coughed, "Alright, Yun Ya, you should leave first."
"Oh." Yun Ya obediently walked out.
Qiao Yi followed her, his gaze complex as he stared at her back.
Yun Ya recalled the old man’s gaze, as if he was looking at someone through her.
Her grandfather said she resembled her grandmother, so did he mistake her for her grandmother? Yun Ya thought of what Doctor Hua had told her before they came.
This trip would yield some results for her.
It seems some old stories are about to be uncovered.
"Who... who is she?" The old man suddenly asked, his expression very agitated.
"She’s my apprentice’s niece." Doctor Hua replied lazily.
"I asked for her name." The old man asked eagerly.
"Yun Ya, oh, her surname is Ji, her full name is Ji Yunya. You should be quite familiar with her grandfather," Doctor Hua added at the end.
The old man’s eyes widened in disbelief, "So it’s true... she looks... she looks just like her...."
The charm between her brows was strikingly similar to her younger self, giving the impression she stood before him now.
"Indeed, when I first met her, even I was startled." Doctor Hua nodded earnestly.
"Is she that child’s daughter?" The old man asked.
"What do you think?" Doctor Hua rolled his eyes, clearly mocking his redundant question.
The old man suddenly burst into tears of joy, "How wonderful, to see her once more before I die. I can rest in peace now."
Doctor Hua’s eyes widened in a glare, "I told you, as long as I’m alive, I won’t let you die. Are you just ignoring my words?"
The old man suddenly grabbed Doctor Hua’s hand, "Let me see her once more, please?"
Doctor Hua pulled his hand away, "Control your emotions, don’t scare the child. She doesn’t know anything."
"I understand...."
Yun Ya heard Doctor Hua calling for her, so she got up and walked back in.
A pair of intense eyes looked her way, sending shivers down her spine. Yun Ya slowly walked in, and she heard a gentle voice near her ear, "What’s your name?"
The voice was so kind that Yun Ya felt like crying.
Instinctively, Yun Ya looked at Doctor Hua, who gave her a slight nod. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Yun Ya pressed her lips together, walked to the bedside, and said softly, "My name is Ji Yunya."
"Who is Ji Huaixi to you?" The old man asked, visibly excited.
"He is my grandfather," Yun Ya said softly.
Yun Ya slightly lifted her eyebrows, noticing how the old man’s weathered eyes gazed at her warmly, giving her a sense of familiarity.
"Do you know my grandfather?"
This face, Yun Ya certainly recognized. Of course, whether the person knew her was uncertain.
