Chapter 291: Chapter 291 What did she do wrong? Chapter 291: Chapter 291 What did she do wrong? The cries of despair and helplessness echoed on the cold and empty platform.
Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know what had happened in the past, but she knew that Great Grandma hadn’t been with her grandfather.
Without thinking, Gu Qiaoqiao charged toward the platform; Great Grandma’s health had just recovered and couldn’t withstand such a shock.
But halfway there, she saw Great Grandma slowly collapsing.
Gu Qingfeng knelt on the ground, embracing Lady Yu, only to find her face as pale as wax, her breathing weak.
It seemed like the end was near.
Loudly he called out, “Lady Yu, Lady Yu…”
But the elderly woman showed no response.
He looked up, saw Gu Qiaoqiao rushing over, and as if he had found a savior, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Gu Qiaoqiao, he choked out, “Qiaoqiao, please, you must save your Great Grandma.”
With that, he quickly took off his peace Buddha pendant and, with hands that wouldn’t stop trembling, he placed it around Lady Yu’s neck.
By this time, Gu Qiaoqiao had finally reached Great Grandma’s side; she knelt on the ground and unhesitatingly placed her fingers over Great Grandma’s heart.
Waves of warm and cool breath spread slowly over Lady Yu’s heart, then disappeared into the skin beneath.
The others also rushed over.
Gu Qingfeng, with a frenzied expression, stared fixedly at Lady Yu’s face.
In his heart, he kept begging heaven to let Lady Yu be alright; if heaven really wanted to take a life, then it should take his.
He was the one who deserved to die!
Qin Yize’s gaze remained calm as he subtly blocked Zhao Yulan’s view of Gu Qiaoqiao; although this was Grandma Yu’s adopted daughter, they were not familiar with each other.
If someone with a discerning eye saw Qiaoqiao’s method of saving people, they would realize there was more than meets the eye.
Besides, at this moment, they could not help anyway.
Qin Yize spoke to Uncle Gu, “Uncle Gu, you take care of Elder Gu. Aunt Zhao, go get the medicine that Grandma Yu has been taking.”
One person had already fallen; they couldn’t afford a second one.
The reason he asked Aunt Zhao to fetch the medicine was that he had seen two boxes of it while helping them pack up earlier.
These were medicines for treating high blood pressure and coronary heart disease.
Meanwhile, he headed outside the station.
Although it was quite remote, there should still be a health clinic.
Zhao Yuxiang hurried to fetch the medicine.
Grandma Yu had recently stopped taking it.
But Zhao Yuxiang, not feeling reassured, had brought it along, and now it was indeed needed…
Uncle Gu helped up Gu Qingfeng, who was kneeling on the ground and had lost control of his emotions, and said with a choked voice, “Old Patriarch, you must hold on. If something were to happen to you, what would become of Qiaoqiao and the lady?”
Gu Qingfeng’s gaze gradually cleared, and looking at Lady Yu, whose expression had eased, he reached out with trembling hands to help her up.
At that moment, Lady Yu slowly opened her eyes.
Her chest was still rising and falling, but it was much better than before.
Upon seeing Gu Qingfeng, memories of the distant past flooded in like a tide.
Her eyes reddened, and although they were somewhat cloudy, the overwhelming hatred contained within could not be concealed.
She would rather have remembered nothing at all, wished she could die in confusion.
At least, there would remain one beautiful thought in her heart.
But now, she felt life was so unjust.
What had she done wrong?
To deserve such a cruel punishment from fate?
With all her strength, she pushed away Gu Qingfeng’s hand and turned to look intently at Gu Qiaoqiao; after struggling for a long time with her raspy voice, she finally choked out, “Qiaoqiao, you… are Kunkun’s granddaughter… right?”
