Chapter 46 Grandpa Shang passes away

Shang Yan stood there and watched the two people walk away.

"Shang Yan!" Wang Meiling saw Shang Yan and ran to him happily, "Take me home~"

Shang Yan's eyes darkened and his expression was indifferent.

"No, I have something else to do."

Wang Meiling curled her lips and wanted to grab the hem of his clothes to act coquettishly, but Shang Yan took a step back to avoid her.

"What do you want? I can wait for you."

Wang Meiling lowered her hands and frowned in displeasure.

"I want to go back to my old house and leave first." After Shang Yan finished speaking, he turned and left.

Shang Yan was a little disgusted with Wang Meiling's clinginess. He had only known her for less than two months, but Wang Meiling was following him like a little tail.

Even when she went back to her hometown to visit relatives, Wang Meiling followed her.

There was some disgust at first, but now it has risen to disgust.

It seems that there is no need for him to accept it unconditionally.

Wang Meiling also couldn't figure out why Shang Yan's attitude toward her changed so quickly when he just went to self-study in the evening.

Although she knew that Shang Yan didn't like her, he was always willing to do superficial things.

What happened that made him unwilling to even do superficial things?

A trace of cruelty flashed in Wang Meiling's eyes. No one could threaten her to marry Shang Yan.

She walked straight into the class and after looking around, she found no girls with better conditions than herself.

I thought I was overthinking it and didn't stop.

When Shang Yan left school, the driver opened the door for him and said, "Young Master, I am not in good health today."

"I know, drive faster."

Shang Yan looked calm, but the hurried pace of getting out of the car revealed his innermost feelings.

He went upstairs and went directly into the old man's room.

In the room, Mr. Shang was lying weakly on the bed, breathing weakly and looking pale.

Shang Yan sat beside his grandfather's bed, his eyes anxious and worried, but helpless.

The doctor opened the door and motioned for Shang Yan to come out and talk.

"Doctor Qi, how is my grandfather?"

Qi Xiu looked frustrated and shook his head slowly, saying, "I still can't find out what's wrong with the old man. I checked him today and found that his vital signs are getting lower and lower."

Qi Xiu hesitated again and again, but still chose to tell the truth.

"Maybe...it won't last a few days."

Shang Yan's heart trembled after hearing this, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He asked unwillingly.

"There's nothing you can do?"

Qi Xiu shook his head, feeling very complicated.

Mr. Shang sponsored him to go to school, and even spent a lot of money to let him study abroad and learn more skills. However, when he returned after completing his studies, he found that he could not save his benefactor at all.

Shang Yan felt a sour feeling in his heart that he couldn't suppress.

"Young master, I am useless."

Qi Xiu knelt down with a pop, tears pouring out, a grown man crying bitterly.

Before he could repay his kindness, his benefactor was about to leave.

Qi Xiu couldn't accept it.

"Doctor Qi, please go down first. I'll go in and see grandpa later."

Shang Yan turned around and returned to the room.

After receiving the news, the merchants rushed back to their old homes.

Mr. Shang seemed to sense something. The man who had been sleeping for a long time opened his eyes again.

His eyes were cloudy and he stared at the ceiling without saying anything for a long time.

Seeing that Mr. Shang was awake, Shang Yan was very excited, but he was afraid of surprising his grandfather.

"grandfather……"

"Call your dad and third and second uncles in. I have something to tell you."

"it is good."

Shang Yan didn't dare to neglect and quickly went downstairs to call for someone.

Three people were in the room, and the rest were waiting in the living room downstairs.

Grandma Shang's eyes were red and swollen from crying. She was so flustered that she always felt that her husband was about to leave her.The three people quickly came out of the room.

The eldest brother Shang Wenzhong: "Xiaoyan, help your grandma up to see grandpa."

"it is good."

The second eldest son, Shang Shigang, has no children around him and could not make it today.

The third brother, Shang Shiming, was not to be outdone and said, "You all should follow us up and have a look. Don't make any noise!"

When Grandma Shang saw Mr. Shang, she couldn't control her emotions and couldn't stop her tears from flowing down.

Shang Yan's eyes were red and he looked at Mr. Shang reluctantly.

"You old woman, why are you crying? I'm not dead yet!"

Grandma Shang choked with sobs: "Old man, don't... leave me alone."

"How can you be alone? Look back and see that there are such a large group of descendants."

"I've had a long dream these days. I dreamed that you were carrying the third child on your back, the eldest brother was holding the second child, and you mothers couldn't find me..."

Everyone listened quietly to what Mr. Shang said.

The conversation between the two moved the juniors present to tears.

After saying a few words, Mr. Shang was breathing heavily. He grabbed Grandma Shang with one hand and raised the other hand.

"Xiao Yan..."

Shang Yan held his hand tightly, "Grandpa, if you keep persisting, I can find a way to save you."

Mr. Shang forced a smile.

"You have the same moral character as your father, and you worry about your life blindly!"

"Grandpa doesn't want you to live too tiredly. You have to be yourself, but you must not do bad things!"

His grandson has been precocious since he was a child, and he often reluctantly gave away the things he loved to his younger siblings.

But he didn't want Shang Yan to live like this. The descendants of his merchant should live a free and unrestrained life!
I thought that Mr. Shang would also have a few words to explain to his other three grandchildren.

Unexpectedly, he changed the topic and continued talking about his dream.

"Old lady, I have to take the first step. You have to take care of yourself."

When Grandma Shang heard this, she cried even harder and held on to Mr. Shang's hand.

He let go of Shang Yan's hand and wanted to wipe his lover's tears like before.

"Don't cry..."

He stopped talking, his hands fell along with his tears, and Mr. Shang closed his eyes completely.

Grandma Shang was stimulated and fainted.

The people waiting outside heard the movement inside and all opened the door and rushed in.

Looking at Mr. Shang who had left, Shang Yan felt that his heart was tightly grasped and he couldn't breathe.

"grandfather……"

His voice trembled, as if he was trying to endure pain.

The death of Mr. Shang caused quite a stir in the imperial capital.

Mr. Shang made great achievements. He worked hard in his early years to gain a foothold in the imperial capital. With his merits and business acumen, he became the businessman he is now.

Those who come to express condolences are either rich or noble.

As soon as Song Yitang finished washing up, Sun Sui hurried out.

"Xiaosui, where are you going?"

"Grandpa Shang Yan has passed away. I want to go there..." After that, he disappeared.

Kang Jiani, who was tracing her eyebrows, paused.

Sun Sui, this girl is actually from the Sun family?
Song Yitang was stunned when he heard the news and thought of Shang Yan, but he quickly returned to normal.

Until the freshman assembly in the afternoon, Sun Sui had to come back to arrange seats because he was the monitor.

Sun Sui walked to the auditorium and quickly arranged the students in the class according to the seating arrangements given by Sun Qingmin.

Shang Yan didn't come.

"I can finally take a breather!" Sun Sui sat down and gasped.

Ding Lixiu inquired: "I see Shang Yan is not here. Are the businesses busy today?"

"Isn't it just lively? I couldn't squeeze in at all, and I didn't even see anyone else."

"But that's true. In the first half of his life, Mr. Shang dedicated himself to the country and fought in battles to gain such glory. In the second half of his life, he did business and paved the way for future generations. He didn't expect that he would be in his seventies..."
