Tang Chen didn’t continue the conversation . Looking at the shut door, he was deep in thoughts .
After a while, he got up on his feet . “I’m leaving . ”
“Bye . ”
Tang Chen wasn’t facing her, and his expression couldn’t be seen .
“Lin Wanwan, everyone has their limit . How long do you think you can last under such pressure again and again? I want to give you a life of peace and joy, but you chose the thorny path . Do you care about Lu Zhanbei that much?”
Lin Wanwan could sense his bitterness and slight confusion .
“Yes,” she answered, certain . “I will never change my mind once I have made my decision . ”
Tang Chen closed his eyes, covering his emotions . “What a coincidence . Me, too . ”
“Tang…”
Lin Wanwan wanted to say something, but Tang Chen didn’t give her the chance . He turned around and quickly kissed her on the back of her hand .
“Trust me, your grandpa will be fine . ”
He took his exit .
Lin Wanwan watched as his figure disappeared from her sight . Shaking off her thought, she put her hands together and prayed .
Grandpa, please make it out alive…
From afar, Tang Chen walked toward Lu Zhanbei, who was sitting by an evergreen . He took a seat beside him and mocked without holding back, “If you are really sorry, maybe you should take your own life . ”
Lu Zhanbei didn’t reply .
Tang Chen snorted as he lit the cigarette . “Want one?”
Lu Zhanbei took it quietly .
The pair remained silent for a while before Tang Chen spoke . “I’ve told Lin Wanwan about her mom . ”
Lu Zhanbei was expecting it . “There is nowhere to hide anyways . ”
The reason he didn’t tell her was the worry of Lin Wanwan leaving him .
Tang Chen knew what he was thinking .
“I thought Lin Wanwan would at least be swayed even if she chooses to stay with you . However, her heart was so determined that it’s making me jealous . Lu Zhanbei, you are such a great keeper . Guess I’ll have to finder a better striker to score the goal . ”
Lu Zhanbei was in no mood for a quarrel .
Tang Chen glanced at him, and a tear-marked face appeared in his mind . He pouted self-mockingly as she threw a golden box at Lu Zhanbei .
“This is for you . ”
Lu Zhanbei opened it and found a dozen syringes full of transparent liquid .
“What’s this?”
“Something that can keep Lin Wanwan’s grandpa alive . ”
Lu Zhanbei’s pupil contracted as he watched Tang Chen take a deep whiff of his cigarette .
“It’s a drug that can boost one’s potential to self-heal . We got it done last month, and we’ve done the tests . Give it to Lin Wanwan . ”
Lu Zhanbei felt the weight in his hands .
He opened his mouth, but thousands of words in his mind turned into a simple mockery . “How weird that you are giving the chance of winning her heart to me!”
Tang Chen’s smacked himself on the forehead . “Right! I should hand this to her myself . Maybe she would promise me her life in appreciation . Thanks for reminding me!”
He tried to snatch the box from Lu Zhanbei .
The latter raised his hand . “Too late . ”
Tang Chen shot him a glare of hatred as he stood up . “I’ll get going . ”
A few steps later, Lu Zhanbei’s voice came from behind .
“Tang Chen, I’ll remember this favor . ”
