“Grandpa… I'm a little hungry…”
“Stay hungry . ”
“Grandpa… I'm thirsty…”
“Stay thirsty . ”
“Grandpa, why are you so heartless… Am I not your grandson?” Su Yu looked at his grandpa with miserable eyes .
“If you weren't my grandson, I would've thrown you into the ocean and fed you to sharks . You should be glad that you're my only grandchild . Do you really think I'd forgive you otherwise?” The old man was clearly still furious .
“Grandpa…” Su Yu activated his cute puppy mode .
He knew that his grandpa cherished him more than anyone in the world . As long as he kept up the thick-skinned, puppy-eyed sweet talk, his grandpa would surely give in .
Suddenly, before Su Yu could say anything else, Grandpa Su said, “The girl you told me to rescue… is pregnant . ”
“What?” Su Yu was beyond stunned .
“I just got news from Jing City . They've put in a request for out-of-prison medical parole . The request will for sure be approved because she's pregnant . Once the orders are given tomorrow, she'll be picked up . ”
“Pregnant…” Su Yu's expression was complex, to say the least . He didn't look happy nor sad… It was just, complicated .
Grandpa Su watched his ever-changing expressions and scolded, “Are you going to give up now?”
Su Yu licked his lips without a reply; something in his mouth tasted bitter .
He was also happy for Huo Mian, however, as he was fully aware of just how much Huo Mian wanted a baby .
Plus, a pregnancy at a critical time like this was the perfect excuse to get her out of prison for a while .
“Why aren't you talking? Are you sad?” Grandpa Su asked .
“Hah… why should I be sad? It's good that she's pregnant…” Su Yu smiled bitterly .
“Fine, let's see how long you can keep this up . They'll let us know tomorrow and I'll send people to pick her up . Because her status is still sensitive, she can't go home directly, as it would spark controversy . I'm planning to put her
in the city's army hospital…”
“Alright . Grandpa, I'm picking her up tomorrow . ”
“You're going?” Grandpa Su was surprised .
“Yes, I'll go… I don't really trust anyone else . ” Su Yu was more than careful; he didn't want anything to happen to Huo Mian .
Rick spent so much time and effort planning such a thorough plan, and yet, Qin Chu was still unable to avoid tragedy .
This only meant Huo Siqian was willing to do anything and everything to get what he wanted .
Therefore, Su Yu wasn't about to leave Huo Mian in the hands of others…
He had thought that his grandpa would object and was preparing himself for further persuasion .
Surprisingly, his grandpa actually agreed .
He pondered for a moment and said, “That could work . It'll probably be easier with you there . They know that you're my grandson… they'll definitely give me that little leeway . ”
“Grandpa… A little leeway? It's a big one alright?”
“Stop blabbing . Keep kneeling . You can't leave until after midnight . ”
“But… Grandpa, I have to catch the plane to Jing City tomorrow…”
No matter how much Su Yu protested, Grandpa Su wouldn't give in .
Su Yu had truly crossed the line this time; he almost gave Grandpa Su a heart attack .
What kind of storms hadn't the old man experienced in the military? Yet, he couldn't believe how afraid he was when his grandson pulled that crap on him earlier .
The gun in his hand was too powerful, Grandpa Su didn't even want to think about what could have been .
What if Su Yu slipped, and the bullet really struck his head?
He couldn't imagine that kind of tragedy; he wouldn't be able to take it .
So, he had no choice but to give in to his grandson's request…
Su Yu continued kneeling in the memorial hall, feeling more relaxed now .
The thought of seeing Huo Mian the next day made him feel all warm and fuzzy…
When he remembered Huo Mian's pregnancy, however, bitterness crept up again .
Although he had expected this day to come, it was still a surprise .
“Qin Chu must be really happy if he knew about Huo Mian's pregnancy… He's going to be a dad after all…”
Deep into the night…
Mrs . Su took her phone and went to find her son .
“Yu… your phone isn't on?”
“Uh… Grandpa took my phone . ” Su Yu looked miserable .
“Wei Liao called me… I think he really needs to talk to you . ”
With that, Mrs . Su handed over her phone to her son…
