Chapter 184: A Dream

Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee

Tang Zhenhua liked that boy. Although his background was not powerful enough, he truly appreciated his ability, so he wasn’t against Xixi being together with him. Only an outstanding young man like Qiao Liang deserved his excellent granddaughter. They were together for many years and he even planned to meet Qiao Liang’s parents and prepare a grand engagement ceremony for them. However, he had suddenly found out that they broke up.

What’s more, it was infuriating that it was Qiao Liang who asked to break up with his granddaughter! How dare he abandon his granddaughter who was so excellent?! He had to let the boy know the consequences of angering him! However, when he learned the real reason behind Qiao Liang breaking with his granddaughter, he was quite moved. The lad had discovered that he had cancer and, moreover, something bad had happened to his family, which was why he broke up with Xixi so as not to implicate her.

Such a good young man was very rare in today’s society and so he didn’t have the heart to punish that boy.

Now it had been so many years and they...

Suddenly, Tang Zhenhua put out his hand to wipe away his tears. He said in a hoarse voice, “In reality, I killed Xixi. If I hadn’t agreed to the Tang Family people working in Empire Group... If I had told Xixi that Qiao Liang actually loved her, she wouldn’t have gone out to travel to relieve her pain every year and then those people wouldn’t have had the chance to murder her.”

“Master, how can you blame yourself for that?” Tang Zhong looked at Tang Zhenhua. “From what I knew of Miss, even if you had told her at that time, being such a proud person, she would not have forgiven Mr. Qiao Liang.”

Tang Zhenhua sighed as he turned to watch the news on TV and didn’t talk anymore. Tang Zhong glanced at his wristwatch and then bent down to try the temperature of the water that the maid had brought. After about ten minutes, Tang Zhong took out the medicine and handed it to Tang Zhenhua, saying, “Master, it’s time to take your medicine.”

Tang Zhenhua took a look at Tang Zhong, pursed his lips and asked, “May I not take this medicine?”

Tang Zhong didn’t look at him and replied with a straight face, “Master, your health is important.”

Tang Zhenhua was angry. “You have nothing to say but this!”

...

In the evening, Tang Xi asked Yang Jingxian to go back after having dinner, as the latter was of little help staying here. She needed someone to carry her to the bathroom, but as Yang Jingxian wasn’t capable of doing so, she asked her to go home.

Yang Jingxian was worried about her and suggested calling the Xiao brothers here to accompany her, but Tang Xi refused. From what she knew of Qiao Liang, she knew he would come over and guard her in the evening. If he came over and saw Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing here, her poor brothers might be tortured by him again. Yang Jingxian was so worried about her that she insisted on staying and thus Tang Xi had to try her best to persuade her to leave.

However, Tang Xi waited for quite a while after Yang Jingxian left, but as Qiao Liang still hadn’t come, she involuntarily fell asleep.

In her dream, she didn’t know where she was. She only saw a prairie where three people were sitting on the grassland, chatting and looking quite happy. The three of them were very young. She walked over to them with curiosity when suddenly, the three people looked back to wave at her and called her name. Clearly seeing who the three people were, Tang Xi was stunned and froze. Were they Lin Ru and her mom and dad? Why were they sitting here?

They looked at her and waved at her, saying, “Xixi, come here, come here.”

Tang Xi took a step forward, but then she suddenly saw a white-haired old man standing there. His eyes were full of tears and he looked sad and desperate. Tang Xi immediately recognized the man to be her grandpa. She stopped, tears running out of her eyes. She wiped her tears before running over to hug Tang Zhenhua, crying aloud, “Grandpa!”

Seeing it was her, Tang Zhenhua smiled. “Xixi, you’ve been playing outside for so long. It’s time for you to come home. I really miss you.”

Tang Xi nodded vigorously and said to Tang Zhenhua, “Grandpa, look, it’s Father...” She pointed to the three people, but the next second she was stunned—the three people who had been sitting on the grassland had disappeared.

When she turned back, Tang Zhenhua, who had been standing before her, had also disappeared. Tang Xi ran as fast as she could on the grassland and called out for them. She called for her grandpa, father and mother, but no one answered her. She cried, cried as hard as she could, but none of them appeared again. No one came to comfort her...

When Qiao Liang walked into the ward, he saw the asleep Tang Xi crying and calling out “Grandpa”, “Mom” and “Dad”. She shook her head and cried out “don’t leave me”. She looked so lonely and helpless...

Qiao Liang walked over to lay down beside her. He wiped her tears, gently hugged her in his arms and coaxed her in a low voice, “Don’t cry, my girl. I’m here with you. Don’t cry. I’ll always stay by your side. Please don’t cry, or else I will be sad...”

He coaxed her in a low voice until Tang Xi opened her eyes and looked at him. He patted her on the shoulder and looked down at Tang Xi who had woken up. Tears hung on her eyelashes and she looked fragile and pitiful. He lowered his head, kissed her on the forehead and whispered, “Did you dream about your grandpa, and mom and dad?”

Tang Xi wanted to lean against Qiao Liang’s chest, only to find she couldn’t move her waist, so she had to give up. She looked up at Qiao Liang and nodded. “I’ve never dreamed of them, but tonight I dreamed they were sitting together with Xiao Rou’s mother, chatting happily, but I also saw Grandpa. He was so sad and said I had been playing outside for so long, that it’s time for me to go home. He really missed me...”

Qiao Liang looked at her deeply, bowed his head and kissed Tang Xi on her forehead. “You will go back,” he murmured.

Tang Xi smiled bitterly. “Unfortunately, even if I can go to the capital, enter Empire Group and see Grandpa, I’m no longer his granddaughter. I’m no longer Tang Xi. I can never become Tang Xi again, nor can I heal Grandpa.”

Qiao Liang frowned when he thought of the call he had received at the gate of the hospital and looked down at Tang Xi.

“Xixi, your grandpa seems to have known about your death, but pretends as if he doesn’t know. He probably...”
