Chapter 1446 - He Had Declined At The Start
Chapter 1446: He Had Declined At The Start
Mo Chengxian had remained ill for a few years and no one had ever seen him in such an energized state.
He had been sitting in the wheelchair ever since he regained consciousness.
When Qi Yan called Mo Chengliang to tell him that Mo Chengxian was now able to speak, his elderly face became scrunched up, as if he had seen a ghost.
He had declined his invitation at the start. However, after a long thought, he finally decided to believe what Qi Yan said and came over to take a look.
Judging from Mo Chengxian’s health condition, he had originally thought that it would be too challenging for his elder brother to be able to speak. Even if Qi Yan was not able to completely heal him, he would be very satisfied as long as Mo Chengxian could regain consciousness and live with a sound mind.
However, he had never expected to see Mo Chengxian sitting in the wheelchair and staring at him with his pair of aged, sparkling eyes when he entered the courtyard!
Mo Chengxian had that exact razor-sharp gaze when he was in control of the business industry years ago.
The head of the Mo Family, during that time, was a figure who commanded huge respect and fear from everyone!
However, after he fell ill, Mo Chengliang had not seen such a gaze on his face ever again. Now that he saw it all of a sudden, he went into such a shock that he could not utter a single word.
His expression was akin to that of Nian Xiaomu’s…
Without any prior warning, as she stepped foot into the courtyard, Nian Xiaomu saw her grandfather. Just like someone who has had a fixed spell cast on her, she stood rooted to the ground and stared blankly toward the front with her huge eyes.
Nian Xiaomu felt a feeling of homesickness in her heart.
She no longer had her parents and her grandfather was all that she had left.
In the past, she had a bet with Mo Kun and was unable to see her grandfather even though she wanted to do so. However, now that her grandfather was right in front of her, she did not really have the guts to face him.
She was worried that these were just her hallucinations.
She was worried that her grandfather would disappear if she were to walk over now. As such, she stood rooted to the ground for a long time, as she watched the elderly man who was just meters away from her with a pair of red-rimmed eyes.
It was the same for Mo Chengxian.
He leaned his slightly hunched body against the wheelchair. Even though he looked way more energized, his physical state was still a stark difference from that of three years ago.
Having lived to such a ripe old age, he had already gone through all the bitter and sweet days.
The only things that mattered most to him were this enormous Mo Family, as well as his precious granddaughter!
“Nian Xiaomu, why are you standing here? Your grandfather is waiting for you.” Yu Yuehan walked to Nian Xiaomu’s side and spoke.
His seemingly nonchalant tone was accompanied by a dash of reminder.
Mo Chengxian could not get overly agitated with his current state of health.
Nian Xiaomu must control her own emotions first before she could comfort him.
Nian Xiaomu sniffed her nose slightly when she heard his words.
She slowly dragged her body and took two steps forward. Then, she turned around and cast a look at Yu Yuehan. She seemed to be attempting to get an affirmation from his gaze, that the things before her were not her hallucinations.
Her grandfather had really recovered.
He was sitting right in front of her…
“Xinxin…” The two words sounded from Mo Chengxian’s husky voice.
The moment he spoke, the eyes of the elderly man who used to be a top figure in the business industry turned red.
He wobbly reached his hand out toward Nian Xiaomu.
“Grandpa!” Finally, Nian Xiaomu could no longer hold in her emotions as she ran toward Mo Chengxian directly and plunged into his embrace.
She sobbed like a kid!
“Everything is fine… And it’s all that matters…” Mo Chengxian patted her head and muttered strenuously.
It was only then when Nian Xiaomu realized that her grandfather had not fully recovered yet; when he spoke, his mouth was still a little crooked and he could not pronounce his words clearly.
Those who were not close to him might not be able to understand what he had said as there was a slur to his words.
Nian Xiaomu turned to look at Qi Yan worriedly.
