"I fell asleep and woke up again." Captain Li took Su Qianci's hand and patted it. He sighed and said, "Do you know why I woke up?"
Su Qianci looked at him and slowly shook her head.
The wrinkles on Captain Li's face were also much more than three years ago. At this moment, when he smiled, his whole face was wrinkled.
"I just had a dream. I dreamed that Sicheng came back." Captain Li smiled kindly. His voice was old and dry. He put his dry hand on Su Qianci's hand. In a pair of slightly turbid eyes, there was some sadness. "He said, 'Grandpa, I am sorry for you and Su Qianci. I may not be able to come back in time to see you off. Just pretend that you never had this grandson. I'm sorry.'"
As he spoke, Captain Li's voice became sobbing. He lowered his head with tears in his eyes. "It's been four years. In two months, Dasu and Ersu's birthdays are coming. If he is still alive, he must have come back a long time ago. But why is he not back yet?"
Su Qianci's nose was sour, and her eyes were also filled with tears. She whispered, "Grandpa, don't think so much. He will come back. It's just a matter of time. He is still alive. You have to be healthy. When he comes back, you can see him. I have a hunch that he will be back soon."
Captain Li shook his head. "I know him. If he is still alive, it is impossible not to come back. He still has a wife and children. You know how much he looks forward to these two children. If he is really alive, it is impossible not to come back to see the children."
"Although sometimes he seems to be cold and indifferent to everyone, in fact, his heart is warmer than anyone else. He will not be cruel to the people he cares about. He cares about this family, but four years have passed. Has he ever come back?"
Su Qianci was speechless, and her throat was also sore.
"I don't have much time. Over the years, you have worked hard, Qianqian. You have been supporting his company and the two children. I have seen it all, but … Grandpa's heart aches!"
"Grandpa, I am happy to do it."
The old man took her hand and looked at her meaningfully. "You're willing to endure hardship, but do you know how much the two children yearn for a father?"
As soon as grandpa mentioned this, Su Qianci knew what he wanted to say. Shaking her head, she said, "Grandpa, I don't want to find someone else. I want to wait for him to come back."
"I know you love Sicheng, but so many years have passed, and you are only 25 years old. Accept the fact, Qianqian, he is dead. He will not come back."
Su Qianci looked at Captain Li.
The old man's hair was almost completely white. His face and spirit were clearly much older than he had been in his previous life, much, much older …
She knew what he was worried about. He was afraid that when he got old, she would have a companion and someone to rely on. That way, she wouldn't have to support herself.
Li Sicheng had been brought up by him and was his favorite grandson.
But now he had to persuade his favorite grandson's wife to remarry. For the old man, wasn't this a kind of torture?
However, Su Qianci was not willing to accept his kindness. She held the old man's hand and said seriously, "Grandpa, he will come back."
"Qianqian," Captain Li's voice was like a broken bell in the wind and rain, far away and swaying. "No matter how long you wait, the dead will not know, but … there are still living people waiting for you. Do you know that?"
