When they arrived at the hospital, the nurses came out with a stretcher. Seeing the Old Man lying on the stretcher without moving, Xian Guiying's steps became a little weak as she hurried to follow him. Qin Gengxin stopped her, saying, "You go with them to the emergency room and wait there. I handle the registration."

Xian Guiying nodded hastily and followed the nurses inside.

"Grandfather, don't scare me." When the Old Man was rushed to the emergency room, Xian Guiying did not care that her dress was drenched by the rain. She continued to hold his cold hand. "Don't scare me."

"Miss, we're sending the patient to the emergency room. Please wait outside." The doctor looked at her and told the nurses to hurry.

The nurses quickly pushed the Old Man to the emergency room. Xian Guiying stood outside blankly and looked at the red light that lit up on top of the door.

Closing her eyes, she clasped her hands together in front of her chest and lowered her head in silent prayer. Other than that, she found herself truly powerless at this moment.

She didn't want his grandfather to come to the G City, but the Old Man did not care about his body and said he must come here.

Xian Guiying frowned. She didn't know why her grandfather was there alone in the rain, whether he saw the Old Woman or not, and whether he had said what he wanted to say to her.

About ten minutes later, Qin Qengxin came towards her. Seeing Xian Guiying leaning against the wall outside the emergency room, he walked closer and pulled her gently into his arms.

The two were soaking wet and despite leaning against each other, they still felt very cold.

Xian Guiying leaned against him, subconsciously looking at the red light. "Gengxin, I'm afraid of the hospital …"

He frowned and pressed her into his embrace. "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, we have to face it, don't we?"

"I feel that this place is too cold and lifeless, just like how I was powerless to help Qianqian when she was in danger. I wanted nothing more than to be a doctor and save my daughter. Now … It's this feeling again. I suddenly regretted not having been able to come back to vent my anger on my grandfather all those years ago. I was afraid that if anything happened to him, even if I regretted it, I…"

"Calm down." Qin Gengxin couldn't imagine how she had managed to stand outside the ward when Qin Wenqian was in critical condition and how she had managed to survive after she had heard what Bai Nuying had said on the phone.

He hugged her tightly. "With me accompanying you this time, if you want to cry, just cry. Grandfather should be fine. He has a long life. I've already contacted some people in the hospital. The ambulance will be here soon. Let's go to a better hospital and let him receive thorough treatment."

Xian Guiying was silent for a long time before saying, "Why didn't I see your mother and grandmother in the cemetery?"

Qin Gengxin had already guessed that since the Old Man had left for a long time, he would definitely meet his grandmother. He didn't have enough strength to walk, so being able to enter the cemetery after getting off the taxi was already the limit.

His grandmother and mother were probably already left and did not think about Old Man Xian.

Indeed, no one could blame them for their hatred. However, looking at the red light in the emergency room and Xian Guiying's pale face, Qin Gengxin could only hug her. "Don't think too much about it. Grandpa's body is the most important right now."

The rain had stopped when Mrs. Qin and the Old Woman returned to the city center. Seeing the Old Woman was unhappy, Mrs. Qin pulled her into the street to buy her some new clothes, but the Old Woman refused.

As soon as they entered the door, they heard Qin Xiaowen scolding loudly. "Where did you go?"

Qin Xiaowen had always been a gentle person and had never been like this before. Mrs. Qin was stunned for a moment before she exchanged glances with the Old Woman and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did Xian Tingfeng take a taxi to the cemetery to find you?" Qin Xiaowen frowned. "You just left him there? The rain was so heavy that he couldn't leave! Do you plan to kill him?"

Mrs. Qin was momentarily stunned. However, the Old Woman frowned. "Xiaowen, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? Mom, you also said it since Gengxin and Guiying really want to be together, we can not let any factor affect their relationship and marriage. Since Xian Tingfeng came here, we all understand that you didn't want to see him, but if he dies here, how are you going to make the two children take care of themselves?" Qin Xiaowen said anxiously. "I'm waiting for you. Gengxin found him in the cemetery and took him to the small hospital at the West Mountain."

Mrs. Qin exclaimed, "The hospital?"

However, the Old Woman didn't say anything. She slowly looked out the window at the sky that stopped raining.

"Mom, do you really want Xian Tingfeng to die here?" Qin Xiaowen suddenly asked seriously.

The Old Woman was silent for a moment before she slowly said, "Let's go to the hospital."

However, Mrs. Qin said, "What about Qianqian?"

"Qianqian just fell asleep because she was tired. I had a servant take her back to the children's room. She probably won't wake up for the time being. I'll go get the car." Qin Xiaowen said as he quickly walked away from them.

Mrs. Qin turned to look at the Old Woman, only to see that she was silent the whole time.

"Mom …" She whispered.

"Meili, mom is really getting old." The Old Woman sighed and said, "Let's go to the hospital."

"Mom, if you don't want to go, you can wait here. I know you don't -"

"It doesn't matter. If he really is going to die, I'll send him off." The Old Woman's voice was hoarse as she walked out. Her steps, however, were slightly staggering.

The emergency room lights went out and the door slowly opened.

Xian Guiying, who was originally sitting on the chair, stood up and walked over. "How is he?"

The doctor took off his mask and said softly, "The patient's condition is not very optimistic. Just now, we were told that you are going to transfer a patient to a Central Hospital, right? Hurry up and send him there. Let's see if they can find a better way out. Our hospital's condition is actually quite good, but the patient's condition is not ideal. You can send him to the Central Hospital for a try."

Hearing the doctor's words, Xian Guiying's legs became weak. Qin Gengxin gently placed his arm around her shoulder, as if giving her strength. "We understand, thank you for your hard work."

The doctor nodded and turned away, shaking his head and sighing.
