BXBX NOVEL Chapter 208
Ling Jue’s body stiffened for a moment. She did not like to do things that were too high-profile. Being a celebrity had no privacy, and anything she did would be discussed by others.
She had seen a lot of tiring things. She did not want to live as tiring as those celebrities.
However, if her grandmother liked it, so what if she did it? 2
It was very hard for this old woman to live her whole life. Her daughter was not sensible, and her son was not up to par. If that was her only wish, she would definitely help her realize it. 2
“No, how could I bear to see my Xiao Jue suffer that kind of torture?” She chuckled and stared at the little girl dancing on the television. “One minute on stage, ten years off stage...” 2
Ling Jue did not say anything. She kept looking at the side of her face. She was smiling, as if she had always yearned for that kind of thing.
“Actually, it’s not your mother’s fault for being obsessed with love. She looks the same as I did when I was young.” She leaned against the pillow, her voice was a little soft. “At that time, I was a young educated woman in a literary group. When I went to the countryside, I met your grandfather, and I happened to live in his house. We were young and energetic, so we soon got together. When I was about to go home, he went back with me. My family refused to let me marry into the countryside, but I insisted on leaving with him. I never returned home again...” 2
Ling Jue’s heart sank as she listened to her quietly.
There were wrinkles on her face, and time had left many marks on her face. Her pupils were a little light brown, as if she was reminiscing about the past. 2
“I went back after my mother passed away, but my brother refused to let me into the house. I knelt at the door for the whole night. The next day, at the funeral, I saw my family who had gone far away.” 2
“I didn’t know when my father left. They moved away from their original place. I couldn’t find them when I went to look for them.” 2
“...”
Ling Jue did not know much about love. How could she be so stubborn as to give up on her family members? 2
She turned her head to look at Ling Jue and said earnestly, “Later, your grandfather passed away early. I raised two children by myself. Actually, I don’t regret it. I have to finish the path I chose no matter what. So, don’t blame your mother. She was very stubborn since she was young. She would do whatever she set her mind to and never looked back.” 2
“She didn’t let me down.” Ling Jue moved her lips. “She didn’t let you down.” 2
“Of course not. Having a child of her own and her finding her own happiness is a beautiful thing. I’ve never blamed her. She only let you down. She made you unable to be a happy girl.” 2
She reached out her withered hand and held her hand. “Xiao Jue, if you ever meet your mother again, you can hate her. But, don’t be too heartless to her. Everyone has their own life. Even your parents can’t control it.” 2
Ling Jue did not say a word. She was so determined when she left her. She probably would not come back.
“Grandma knows about my illness. I’m happy that I can still see you in my lifetime. Our Xiao Jue is really a handsome little girl now.” There was a smile between her brows, but there was a hint of sadness. 2
“You’ll be fine. When you can be discharged from the hospital, I’ll bring you back to Yunhai province.” 2
Ling Jue stood up. Although her face was cold, there was determination in it. “You rest well. I’m going to the bathroom.” 2
She packed her things, turned around, and walked out.
She threw her things into the trash can and sat on the bench outside the ward.
“Lord Jue, why don’t you let Tang Yuan show you something cute?” Tang Yuan jumped onto her lap and tried to please her. “Don’t be sad, Lord Jue.” 2
