Old Master An watched the interaction between the three of them and called out, “Mulin, come over and sit.”
An Mulin withdrew his gaze and walked to Old Master An’s bedside.
“Grandfather, how are you feeling?” An Mulin asked.
Old Master An sighed, “What can I say? Just taking it slow to recover.”
“Then please take good care of your health, and don’t worry about other matters.”
“I do want to manage some things now, but I don’t have the energy. Whether it’s your parents’ affairs or company matters, handle them yourselves. I want to listen to Yanyan, take good care of my health, and avoid making her angry.”
Old Master An had come to realize that his grandchildren have their own lives, and he, being at the brink of death, didn’t need to fret over these matters. He just wanted to live a few more years and protect his precious granddaughter.
An Mulin stood by quietly, not saying anything, but his expression showed a hint of loneliness. His little sister ignored his attempts to make amends, even though he had changed and wanted to treat her well. She didn’t give him any opportunities.
Old Master An observed his expression and asked, “Mulin, do you regret not treating Yanyan well in the past?”
An Mulin hesitated for a moment and replied softly, “Yes, I do regret it, but it’s already too late…”
“Yanyan is straightforward in her affections. If someone treats her well, she will reciprocate even more. Conversely, if someone mistreats her, she won’t let herself suffer. Now that you know you’ve made mistakes in the past, make amends sincerely.”
“I believe that with sincerity, even the hardest hearts can be softened. Yanyan is not a heartless person.”
Old Master An’s words brightened An Mulin’s eyes. He realized that his grandfather was right— Yanyan wasn’t a heartless person! She hadn’t accepted him because he hadn’t shown enough improvement. In the future, he would have to treat her even better!
Seeing that An Mulin had changed from his previous despondent state, Old Master An’s expression became excited. He knew that An Mulin had ideas on how to earn Nan Yan’s forgiveness.
He hoped that An Mulin could truly recognize his past mistakes and that Nan Yan would forgive him.
After all, they were blood-related siblings, and he hoped that if he were no longer around in the future, there would be more people to take care of Nan Yan, protect her, and be her strong support.
Even if Nan Yan didn’t need them…
Nan Yan and An Xiran came out of the hospital room and coincidentally met An Zhici and An Siting, who had just come to visit Old Master An after leaving An Yaoqing’s room.
An Zhici wanted to greet Nan Yan, but she walked past him as if she hadn’t seen him, not even glancing in his direction.
An Zhici couldn’t hide his embarrassment. He wanted to get angry, but Nan
Yan had completely ignored him, treating him like a stranger as she walked by.
An Siting looked at An Zhici, then at An Xiran, who also passed by them without a word, and whispered, “Big brother, let’s go.”
An Zhici watched Nan Yan’s retreating figure, his gaze darkening.
If only he had known earlier that Nan Yan was the disciple of the renowned physician Hua Shifang, perhaps he wouldn’t have treated her with his previous attitude. But knowing it now wasn’t too late.
She carried the blood of the An family, which meant she had obligations to fulfill for the family, whether she acknowledged it now or not.
“Let’s go and see Grandfather first,” An Zhici suppressed his thoughts, deciding not to confront Grandfather about it right now.
Old Master An couldn’t handle any stress at the moment, and he knew that raising the issue of Nan Yan’s responsibilities for the An family’s sake would not be welcomed.
He would wait until Grandfather’s health improved, and then he and Nan Yan could work on repairing their sibling relationship.
When the time was right, he could bring up the matter again..
