Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 493: Accompanying Her Final Days

He Qingping left the Zhan Family early in the morning, taking everything Zhan Hanjue had given her.

She left a letter, apologizing to Zhan Hanjue, saying she was sorry to him. After all, as mother and son, she wasn’t good enough.

Taking things away, she was already letting him down, she couldn’t let Yan Rui down too.

Zhan Hanjue burned the letter immediately after reading it, letting out a long breath, as if finally saying goodbye to his former life.

Mrs. Chen also left.

Although she was unwilling to leave, she went to Zhan Hanjue to plead tearfully: "Young Master, please forgive me once more, I promise I won’t dare again. Give me another chance, I assure you, I will take care of Old Mrs. Zhan wholeheartedly in the future, and never do anything to let her and you down again."

"You had your chance, it’s you who didn’t cherish it. Housekeeper Wu, send her away." Zhan Hanjue refused with a cold face and turned upstairs.

Mrs. Chen cried endlessly, being forcibly sent away by Housekeeper Wu.

After all those years of service to the Zhan Family, Zhan Hanjue didn’t treat her badly.

Sending her back to her hometown, not only did he give her a large severance, he also renovated her house back home, so she could enjoy her later years in peace.

After Mrs. Chen left, both Zhan Hanjue and Ye Ningwan worried that Old Mrs. Zhan wouldn’t adapt, so both stayed by her side to take care of her.

Initially, the old lady indeed struggled to adapt to the days without Mrs. Chen.

She constantly looked for her, mumbling, "Where has she gone? Where has she gone?"

"Grandma, I’m here." Ye Ningwan came over, extending her hand to hold the old lady’s hand.

But Old Mrs. Zhan pushed her away: "Not you, where is she? Where is she?"

Ye Ningwan frowned and said to Zhan Hanjue, "She’s looking for Mrs. Chen."

Zhan Hanjue frowned deeply and had no choice but to hold his grandma’s hand himself, patiently persuading her: "Grandma, do you still remember me? I’m Jue, I’m here with you."

"I don’t want you, I want her, where is she?" Old Mrs. Zhan was extremely stubborn.

Zhan Hanjue was at a loss and had no choice but to call Tuantuan and Xiaxia over.

Old children, old children, indeed when people age, they become no different from children.

Once the two children arrived, the old lady finally settled down, focusing on playing with them, forgetting all about finding Mrs. Chen.

Yet the next day, the same thing happened again.

But Tuantuan and Xiaxia went to kindergarten, you couldn’t just suddenly bring them back.

Zhan Hanjue was helpless, forced to think of other ways to divert grandma’s attention so she wouldn’t think about Mrs. Chen again.

For four or five consecutive days, it went on like this, Ye Ningwan said heartbrokenly: "Maybe we should call Mrs. Chen back! While she did wrong, it wasn’t a heinous crime. Look how much grandma misses her, sending her away might be too cruel?"

Ye Ningwan knew in her heart, the old lady’s days were numbered.

As a healer, she always hoped that in leisurely times, patients could spend their remaining days happily.

Zhan Hanjue frowned slightly, seemingly moved by her words too.

However, before they could make a final decision, the old lady suddenly became clear-minded.

"Hanjue, Ningwan," she called their names clearly and unmistakably.

Zhan Hanjue and Ye Ningwan were stunned.

They thought they were hearing things.

It had been so long since they heard the old lady call their names, they thought she had completely forgotten them.

"Grandma, you remember us now?" Ye Ningwan excitedly grasped the old lady’s hand again.

Old Mrs. Zhan watched her and smiled gently, saying: "I’m not senile, how could I forget you. You’re Ningwan, getting prettier, haven’t seen you in a while."

"Grandma, do you know who I am?" Zhan Hanjue also leaned over.

Old Mrs. Zhan’s eyes immediately brimmed with tears, she nodded: "How could I not know? You’re my Hanjue! Grandma hasn’t seen you in a long time, where have you been? Grandma missed you. You’ve changed too, but more mature and steady now."

Zhan Hanjue’s eyes reddened with emotion, he hugged the old lady immediately, choking as he said: "Grandma, I’ve always been here, always been here."

"Feels like I had a dream," Old Mrs. Zhan murmured.

After saying that, she laughed and pushed Zhan Hanjue away: "Don’t hold me too tight, I’m uncomfortable."

"Grandma, I want a hug too." Ye Ningwan asked cutely once they loosened up.

Old Mrs. Zhan laughed: "Come, let’s hug too, we can’t favor one over the other, otherwise it will wrong our Ningwan."

Ye Ningwan chuckled softly, extending her arms to hug the old lady.

Conveniently, she discreetly paused on her pulse for a moment.

Quickly, she let go of the old lady too and smiled: "Grandma, do you want anything to eat? It’s nearly lunchtime, is there something you’re craving?"

"Where’s Mrs. Chen?" Old Mrs. Zhan asked.

Zhan Hanjue’s expression stiffened, slightly frowning, unsure how to respond.

The newly lucid Old Mrs. Zhan returned to her previous shrewdness, noticing his expression, she pondered for a moment and asked: "Did you send her away?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Grandma, if you really miss her, I’ll bring her back," Zhan Hanjue offered.

Old Mrs. Zhan shook her head: "Forget it. I know, you sent her away, she must’ve done something unsatisfactory to you. She’s been with me for half a lifetime, though she has her little plans, she’s inherently not bad, at least she holds no malice towards our Zhan Family. Give her more subsidies, take some from my share, she deserves it for looking after me all these years."

"Grandma, rest assured, I’ve arranged everything, Mrs. Chen is quite content," Zhan Hanjue said.

Old Mrs. Zhan nodded: "That’s good, as long as she’s satisfied. Actually, she’s not young anymore and should enjoy life, not spend her time taking care of me. After all, my own days are limited, why make her suffer watching."

"Grandma, don’t say that," Zhan Hanjue held her hand: "You’ll live a long life."

Old Mrs. Zhan laughed: "Silly child, you’re so grown up, do you still believe in living a long life? Actually, in this life, having your father as my son and you as my grandson, I’m already quite content. Besides, I’ve seen the fourth generation, our Tuantuan, and I’m even more content. If I were to leave, there wouldn’t be much regret. The only regret would be just one thing, and that’s wanting to see the bracelet once more."

"Bracelet? What bracelet?" Zhan Hanjue asked curiously.

Old Mrs. Zhan’s gaze became somewhat distant, as if she were thinking about that bracelet.

Perhaps because of that bracelet, she recalled some past happy moments, her lips curled into a faint smile.

However, after all, age caught up with her, after speaking so much, she was tired.

She didn’t answer Zhan Hanjue’s question, slowly closing her eyes and drifting into sleep.

Zhan Hanjue became anxious, wanting to ask more, but grandma was already asleep.

And what made him crumble was when grandma awoke again, she was confused, completely forgetting what she had said.

"What kind of bracelet is it?" Zhan Hanjue wondered aloud, his brow furrowed.
