Chapter 557 - 557 Foreshadowing
557 Foreshadowing
On one hand, Chu Ning really wanted to know what was wrong with Yan Shen. On the other hand, she was overwhelmed.
Chu Ning was also under a lot of pressure. The current situation was very disadvantageous to her, so she did not want to implicate the people around her.
“I know I can’t change your mind, but if you have time, you should enjoy life and have love for this world. M City is not bad. My memories of more than ten years are rooted here. After letting go of your burdens, everything you see will feel new,” Yan Shen suddenly said.
“Are you going to leave this place soon?” Chu Ning asked in surprise.
Yan Shen’s tone revealed a hint of reluctance and regret.
Chu Ning felt that he probably wouldn’t stay in M City for long, so he wanted to enjoy everything here in the last stretch.
“You guessed it.” Yan Shen nodded.
Yan Shen did plan to leave M City. At the end of his life, he wanted to use the last of his time to travel around the world and pass away quietly.
“The university entrance exams are coming soon. Where are you going at this time?” Chu Ning asked in confusion.
Some of her previous guesses about Yan Shen were shaken again.
Chu Ning was also a little uncertain.
She could not comprehend what Yan Shen wanted to do. Of course, she would not ask. After all, this was his personal privacy.
“It doesn’t matter where I go. What’s important is to follow my heart.” Yan Shen pointed at his chest and replied with a smile.
“Alright, you’re free and easy.” Chu Ning felt that this was not bad.
Yan Shen had changed a lot, and it was in a good direction.
“Do you want to hear about my past? Or rather, what happened when I was young,” Yan Shen continued.
“Tell me.” Chu Ning blinked her eyes and tried her best to look uninterested.
“I heard that Ye Ting transferred schools?” Yan Shen deliberately asked.
“Are you going to tell me or not?” Chu Ning looked at Yan Shen unhappily.
“Are you trying to change the topic?” Chu Ning felt that Yan Shen had also become bad.
“Is your hometown far from M City?” Chu Ning was a little curious about where his hometown was.
“A coastal city, a fishing village,” Carlos said with a smile.
“When I was young, my Great-grandma was still alive. She was my Grandpa’s mother.” When Yan Shen said this, a hint of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.
“She was already 90 years old at that time. Great-grandma died at the age of 96.” Yan Shen thought for a moment and said with certainty.
“90 years old. That’s a long life. ” Chu Ning could not imagine what kind of mental state a person would be in after living for more than 90 years. After all, she had never seen such an old person. The Mountain God she saw in her hometown was only in his eighties.
“My Grandpa died in his sixties. My Great-grandma was a very incredible person. Even though she had to bear the pain of her children’s death, she was still very strong and a very resilient person, a little like you,” Yan Shen said with a complicated expression.
“Oh?” After hearing Yan Shen’s words, Chu Ning became interested.
“At that time, her relatives were afraid that she would take things too hard, so they took turns to watch over her. However, she was furious and cursed at her juniors.”
“Why?” Chu Ning asked curiously.
“Great-grandma felt that they were making a mountain out of a molehill. In fact, although my Great-grandma was already 90 years old at that time, her health was still very good. Although her body was hunched, she was in high spirits. With her hands behind her back, she checked whether the tributes were in place, whether the guests who came to mourn had any needs, and so on.” At this point, Carlos smiled.
“Your Great-grandma didn’t feel any pain when she saw her son pass away?” Chu Ning asked, puzzled.
“No.” Yan Shen shook his head.
“At that time, Great-grandma heard someone in the kitchen say that the goose hadn’t been killed and was struggling to escape from the kitchen. Great-grandma evenly walked to the kitchen, picked up the goose that weighed more than ten catties, and threw it fiercely on the ground.
“The goose struggled a few times and finally died.” Yan Shen recalled that scene back then, and his gaze was calm.
“Great-grandma said not to let the body become a shackle to the soul,” Yan Shen added.
“You have a good memory. You remember it so clearly.” Chu Ning praised.
“I didn’t really understand the meaning of the sentence at that time, but I have kept it in mind.” Yan Shen looked elsewhere and said casually.
