Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5164

Beibei snuggled closer to her great-grandmother and obediently hummed in agreement. 

She closed her eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep. 

With her great-grandmother by her side, she felt incredibly safe. 

But then, in the middle of the night, she dreamt of her great-grandmother. Her greatgrandmother said she was leaving to go find her great-grandfather, telling her not to be sad, that her great-grandmother would always love her. 

In the dream, she inexplicably burst into tears, crying out, “Great-grandmother, don’t go!” Then, she woke up with a start, her face covered in tears. 

The dream frightened her; she quickly touched the side beside her and found her greatgrandmother. She breathed a sigh of relief, telling herself it was just a dream. Her great- 

grandmother was still with her, and hadn’t gone to find her great-grandfather yet. “Great-Grandma,” 

Beibei called out. 

Great-Grandma was old, but she usually woke up quickly if Beibei called twice. 

Thinking Great-Grandma was sleeping soundly, Beibei called twice more, but GreatGrandma didn’t respond or get up as usual. 

Beibei panicked, sat up abruptly, turned on the bedside lamp, and gently nudged Great-

Grandma beside her, calling out, “Great-Grandma, Great-Grandma.” 

Great-Grandma remained unresponsive. 

Beibei panicked; her hands trembled as she checked Great-Grandma’s nose—no breath. 

Her face paled instantly. She frantically rolled off the bed and ran, scrambling out of Great-

Grandma’s room, shouting in the living room, “Dad, Mom, come down quickly! I can’t wake Great-Grandma!” 

, how could they not be heartbroken? 

Beibei saw her parents and aunts so grief-stricken; no one could accept that their greatgrandmother had suddenly left them. Although they knew she was very old and that she would eventually leave them, they still couldn’t accept it. 

They were used to seeing their great-grandmother’s kind smile every time they returned to the old house. 

Beibei saw her father’s vulnerable side for the first time. He leaned on her mother’s shoulder, tears welling in his eyes, his voice choked with sobs, saying, “Serenity, I don’t have a grandma anymore…” 

Her mother wept uncontrollably. Her father had lost his grandma. She had lost 

her great- grandmother. Her father said that when he returned to the old house, he would never see his great-grandmother’s smiling face again, and when he faced difficulties, he would no longer be able to confide in her or receive her guidance. Their great-grandmother had left them just like that. Nine years passed in the blink of an eye. Uncle Jiu’s second child is already over five years old this year. This is her youngest cousin, and the only greatgrandchild that Great-Grandma never saw born. She misses Great-Grandma so much. 

Before coming to Uncle Liu’s place, Beibei visited Great-Grandma’s cemetery, talked to her a lot, and told her that she was going to come to Uncle Liu’s place for a vacation. “Next time Uncle Liu goes back to Dongguan, he must visit your great-grandmother. Uncle 

Liu doesn’t go back often, and your great-grandmother must be upset with him,”
