Chapter 1498 A Cold And Hard Truth

He wasn’t in the state to be seen yet . He stood at the corner of the wall for a while to calm himself down before slowly making his way outside .

Ye Zhenhua had already finished preparing breakfast . When he saw Li Jinnan walking out, he smiled and waved him over . “You’re up so early? Have some breakfast . I’ll help Youyou’s grandfather out . ”

“Let me help you,” Li Jinnan said .

Ye Zhenhua approved very much of the initiative that Li Jinnan displayed . He nodded his head but waved his hand and said, “It’s fine . Just eat first . Youyou should be out soon . You’re intending to go back to Kingstown today, aren’t you? What time will you be leaving?”

“Yes, but you’ll have to ask Youyou for the details . I’m fine with anything,” Li Jinnan replied .

“There are only two bus services to Kingstown,” Ye Zhenhua said . “One is at 10 a . m . , and the other is at 2 p . m . There aren’t any more bus services to Kingstown after that . I think it’ll be better if you take the afternoon bus . It’ll give you a little more time to get ready . ”

Li Jinnan felt his heart warm up as he replied, “Thanks, Dad . I drove here, so we can leave anytime . We can even leave tonight . That way, Youyou will be able to spend more time with you . ”

Ye Zhenhua understood and replied, “That’s not necessary . It’s not safe to drive back at night . You should leave before the sky gets dark . ”

Caught up in the conversation, the two men reached Gramps’ room without realizing it . The old man had been awake for some time . He was sitting at the edge of the bed holding a photo frame . His cloudy eyes were filled with warmth as he stared at the photograph .

When he sensed a commotion, Youyou’s grandfather raised his head . He saw Ye Zhenhua, and a kind smile appeared on his face as he waved him over . “Come here . ”

Ye Zhenhua had no choice but to walk over . “Dad, it’s time for breakfast,” he said .

Youyou’s grandfather was smiling as he asked, “Why isn’t your mom back from the fields yet?”

Li Jinnan was stunned when he heard that . Youyou’s grandmother wasn’t at home, and he had never heard Qianqian mention her either . He had assumed she was no longer around .

But, the old man was now suffering from senile dementia . He was unexpectedly speaking of his other half .

Ye Zhenhua reached out to help him up and replied, “Mom will be back . The harvest has been bountiful lately, so Mom’s been busy . ”

“I’ll go and help her,” his father said .

“Mom doesn’t need your help . You just have to stay home and wait,” Ye Zhenhua replied . Visit website our Listnovel . com

“OK…” Youyou’s grandfather inched along as his son held him up, but his hand refused to let go of the photo frame . “When will she be back?”

“She’ll be back when the work’s done,” Ye Zhenhua said .

“Keep some food for her so that she’ll be able to eat when she gets home . ” Youyou’s grandfather held the photo frame and gazed intently at his old companion in the picture . “I don’t want her to accuse me of eating her share and not thinking of her . It’ll be horrible if she gets angry and decides to leave . ”

Ye Zhenhua made a sound of assent . He was used to this . He reached out intending to take the photo frame and said, “Dad, it’s time for breakfast . Put that down . ”

“OK…” The old man was a little reluctant . He looked at the photo frame as Ye Zhenhua held his hand and walked out .

After two steps, he turned around and said, “No, I don’t want your mother to lose her temper and accuse me of not caring for her . Women can be so troublesome . ” With that, he hugged the photo frame in his arms and was finally willing to walk out . “What’s for breakfast?”

Li Jinnan’s heart, which had sat unmoved for many years, was finally touched by this old man . Everyone would one day grow old and die . The dead were already dead, but those left alive would have to spend the rest of their lives thinking of them and missing them . What a cold and hard truth .
