In the ward.
Old Nie’s brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was pale.
He finally woke up, but when he saw that there was no one around, the pain in his body and the sorrow in his heart caused him to cry again and again.
His turbid old eyes were filled with sadness. He knew that he did not have much time left. He was about to leave, and his child was not by his side. He felt very regretful and also a little wronged.
At that moment, the ward door was suddenly pushed open.
Old Wang slowly walked in and looked at Old Nie’s condition. He forced a smile and said,
“I don’t know where your luck came from. You summoned an entire team of experts to look over you without raising a single finger. impressive. I, Old Wang, am truly impressed!”
“Nie… Nie Xing!”
Old Nie opened the corner of his dry mouth and weakly called out Nie Xing’s name.
Right now, speaking was almost impossible for him.
He struggled to look at the door of the ward, hoping to spot Nie Xing.
“You, you, you only think about that adopted son of yours!!” Old Wang could not tell if he was happy or sad, but he spoke with a complicated expression.
As soon as he finished speaking… a familiar figure walked in.
Old Nie, who had been staring at the door of the ward, saw the figure appear. His dim eyes seemed to light up, and tears flowed out uncontrollably!
The corner of his mouth opened in excitement. “Nie Xing!”
“Dad!”
Nie Xing immediately ran over and knelt beside the bed. As he gazed upon the pale and haggard Nie Yunfeng on the bed, the corner of his mouth trembled:
“I… I’m Late!”
His voice was choked with sobs, and the father and son hugged each other and cried.
Seeing the two grown men crying in front of him, Old Wang also felt bad. He silently left the ward, leaving the two of them alone.
Old Nie, who was on the bed, did not blame him at all. He looked haggard at Nie Xing in front of him. In his eyes, Nie Xing was still the same child as before.
His rough and big palm was placed on Nie Xing’s face with great difficulty. He caressed the red and swollen area on his face, and his voice trembled.
“You’ve lost weight!”
“Dad! I was wrong!”
Upon hearing his father’s words, Nie Xing’s tears gushed out like a fountain again. He could not help but cry out in guilt.
Just as Uncle Wang had said, his father had been sick for an entire year. When his illness had been in the most unbearable and dangerous stage, he was told by him that he was going to look for his biological parents. This was undoubtedly a double whammy to his body and mind! He had caused the most possible harm to his father!
However, the state’s secrets and regulations had been laid out before him, so he could not violate any of them!
If any piece of information was leaked, it would cause thousands of secret workers to lose the results of their previous efforts, and it might even lead to an even greater crisis!
Loyalty and filial piety were both difficult to achieve. This was not something that an ordinary person could endure.
“Xing ‘er, I’ve thought about it carefully in the past half a month. If you… If you want to find your biological parents, that’s what you should do. I shouldn’t have stopped you!”
Old Nie’s cloudy eyes were filled with tears as he lay on the hospital bed and spoke slowly.
He looked weak and every word he said seemed to take all of his efforts.
Nie Xing wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Old Nie.
“Let me finish. I’m afraid I won’t have a chance if I don’t!
“The place I picked you up was in the wasteland in front of the factory. You were wrapped in a big red swaddle. If you’re looking for a family, it should be able to help you… I have no regrets in this life. If I have to say it, it’s that I didn’t see you get married and have children with my own eyes. I also didn’t manage to give birth to a grandchild… I regret not letting you find your biological parents earlier. Who knows, you might have come back to see me earlier…”
As Old Nie spoke, a smile would appear on his face when he talked about everything that had happened in the past.
When he talked about regret, he smiled bitterly.
However, tears couldn’t help but flow along with his smile.
He listened to his father’s words one after another.
Nie Xing knelt in front of the hospital bed. His body couldn’t help but tremble as he lowered his head and wept.
During the past three years, all the treatment his father had suffered seemed to appear in front of his eyes. Before he left, he was still thinking of himself!
Although his biological parents had been used as an excuse, they were a thorn deeply embedded in his father’s heart.
He knew that he might not be able to explain these words in this lifetime.
Until the end… Old Nie asked earnestly, “I know that I won’t live long. I just want to know one thing!”
His face was pale, and his tone was trembling!
Nie Xing hurriedly raised his head and cried, “Dad, Tell Me!”
“Why haven’t you come to see me in these three years?”
Old Nie forced a smile and asked with tears in his eyes.
As his voice fell…
Nie Xing choked with sobs, unable to answer.
It was classified. No matter what excuse he tried to cook up, at that moment, he looked pale and powerless!
He did not want to lie to his father, but he could not tell the truth either.
Tears fell from the corner of his eyes, one drop at a time.
Looking at Nie Xing in front of him, who lowered his head and kept crying, Old Nie smiled in relief and said with difficulty, “Good child!”
He wanted to reach out his hand to silently touch Nie Xing’s face again. In Old Nie’s eyes, that face that seemed to have hardened after experiencing the wind and frost seemed to begin to overlap with that little child from back then.
His trembling hand reached out halfway.
Tick tock!
Old Nie still had a smile on his face. Just like that, he left the world.
The old hand that had lost its strength fell limply onto the hospital bed.
Sensing something, Nie Xing looked up and his expression immediately changed!
“Dad!!”
Nie Xing let out a heart-wrenching cry. Countless sorrows, grievances, and heartache intertwined within him.
The voice traveled out of the ward.
Old Wang, who was standing outside the ward, heard the voice and quickly looked into the ward.
His legs went soft for no reason and he plummeted to the ground!
Fortunately, Little Wang, who was beside him, quickly held him up.
“Dad, what happened to you?”
“Old Nie, he’s gone, he’s gone…”
Old Wang muttered to himself expressionlessly, as if he had lost his soul.
After a moment, he suddenly smiled.
“Good, he’s fine. He came back to see you. He left without regrets!”
“Wait for me. you hear!
“You still owe me a game!”
He seemed to be lost in a trance as he muttered to himself.
…
Su Funeral Company.
Su Chen was still sorting out the information on Nie Yugang that he had received from the system. He had carefully kept the information of each client in his files. He had done this on his own initiative.
At the same time.
The news of Nie Yugang’s death was reported in the system!
[Third mission objective: Nie Yugang has passed away. The funeral will be held in three days. Please prepare to send him off!]
The system’s voice sounded in his mind
His hand froze, and he opened the mission exchange shop with a solemn expression.
Every time he opened the shop, his mood was extremely heavy.
Su Chen’s gaze was complicated.
Funeral, what did it mean to the deceased who had passed on?
