After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 379

Chapter 379: Chapter 379: Will That Family Let You Go?

The moment Lu Sheng finally accepted that she had new family, that she had a grandfather in Beijing.

The next moment, her aunt told her that her grandfather was dying.

The ups and downs of emotions were nothing but like this.

"Grandfather, he..." Lu Sheng just started to speak, then paused, "I mean, Old Mr. Shi, what kind of illness does he have, so severe?"

Shi Erya shook her head and took a deep breath.

"Shengsheng... you might not believe it, but we’ve searched all over China and abroad for the best doctors for your grandfather, yet none could diagnose what exactly his illness is."

"Just in the past year, his body has visibly weakened, deteriorating to an unrecognizable state. Now he can barely speak, relying purely on a ventilator and nutritional tubes to stay alive."

"Your grandfather himself doesn’t even hope to cure this strange illness. He just wants, before he dies, to resolve the knot in his heart from more than two decades. He wants to see you, to apologize to you and your late mother."

"Father has... always regretted not recognizing mother’s change of mood in time, and also regretted not taking good care of your mother. Actually, back then, when the sister-in-law passed away, father felt just as painful and guilty as your mother."

"Shengsheng, maybe my request seems abrupt to you, but I really hope you can come back with me to see your grandfather. He might pass at any time... I really don’t want him to die with regret."

"I also hope you can give grandfather, me, and our Shi family a chance to make it up to you," Shi Erya said with tears in her eyes, "You’ve been wandering outside for so many years, and suffered so much with your mom, how could we not feel heartbroken."

"It was our Shi family who failed you, failing to find your mom and you sooner and bring you home."

Hearing Shi Erya say this, Jiang Ting couldn’t help but speak up.

"Miss Shi, you don’t need to feel this guilty. Although Shengsheng suffered a lot with her mom in the countryside before, now she is living well in our Lu Family."

"Shengsheng is the treasure of our family. You see, after hearing that you came to our home, her brothers all rushed back because they are worried about their sister."

Jiang Ting said to Shi Erya, "Hearing about Old Mr. Shi’s condition makes us feel bad too. But after all, Shengsheng just learned about these things, and even met you for the first time today."

"I think, no matter what, the child should have time to digest and consider. Our Jingyan has booked a hotel for you; why don’t you rest at the hotel first? Once Shengsheng makes up her mind, I’ll have her contact you."

Though anxious, Shi Erya found Jiang Ting’s words reasonable, so she looked at Lu Sheng: "Then Shengsheng, you..."

Not just her, everyone in the room turned their gaze towards Lu Sheng, waiting for her response.

Although Shi Erya’s words just now didn’t say it outright, the implication was very clear.

Not only did she hope Lu Sheng could go back with her to see Old Mr. Shi, but she also hoped Lu Sheng could return to the Shi family.

The Shi Family is a top-tier family in Beijing, well-rooted for years, with power, prestige, wealth, and social status far exceeding that of the Lu family.

Firstly, Shi Erya felt, if Lu Sheng is willing to return with her to the Shi family, the Shi family could provide Lu Sheng with a better life.

Secondly, and more importantly, Shi Erya knew about Lu Chengye’s abandonment of her sister back then, and now the Lu family is run by Jiang Ting, the stepmother.
