The driver immediately turned around and headed for the hospital.
When Yi Jinli arrived at the hospital, they were still rescuing Master Yi. Yi Jinli stood outside the emergency room with an indescribable complicated feeling.
No matter how strong a man was, he would still struggle at such times.
In his eyes, his grandfather was strong, cruel, and cold. It seemed that he was only affectionate to his son who had lived a short life.
Everyone else seemed to be just pawns to him, including him, his grandson!
Master Yi only regarded him as the future successor of the Yi family all this time, not as his grandson. In fact, there was no grandfather and grandson bond between them.
Two hours passed before the door of the emergency room opened. "We've managed to save him. But Master Yi is old, and he had undergone a few operations earlier. Now it's just a matter of how long we can drag this out. At best, maybe a few years. At worst, maybe a few months," the doctor said to Yi Jinli after he came out from the emergency room.
Yi Jinli naturally understood. No amount of money could control birth, age, illness, and death.
Master Yi was sent to the intensive care unit for post-operative observation.
Two days later, Master Yi was taken out of the intensive care unit, and Yi Jinli finally met Master Yi face to face.
"I heard you were waiting outside the emergency room when I was being rescued?" Master Yi asked, but his voice was lighter than ever. It was laced with helplessness.
"Yup." Yi Jinli answered dryly.
"It must have been hard for you to stay outside the ward for an old man like me," Master Yi said.
Master Yi's face seemed to take on a ghastly expression. "Then tell me honestly, do you love her?"
His old, muddy eyes were fixed on his grandson as if he wanted to see all the changes in expression on his face.
Yi Jinli met his eyes. He would have said no before. Since a very young age, he knew that love hurt, so he had never intended to fall in love with anyone.
Now... The words seemed to have a hard time coming out of his mouth naturally.
It was as if unconsciously, that woman was becoming more and more important to him. Even after she had rejected him once, he continued to interact with her as if... he was reluctant to part with her completely.
"I don't know," Yi Jinli replied. He knew that his grandfather never wanted him to give his love to a woman. To him, women were just tools to carry on the Yi family line.
