Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 1411 Grandma Passed Away

Fu Yanchen's figure soon appeared in their sight. He walked hurriedly, but with an indescribable firmness and calmness.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao felt warm in her heart. She stood up, said goodbye to them, then turned around and left with Fu Yanchen.

Xiaomei stood aside, her eyes full of envy, looking at Xu Xiaoxiao's departing back, and secretly sighed in her heart: Xu Xiaoxiao is so lucky to have a husband who dotes on her and loves her so much.

She couldn't help but wonder if she would be able to find such a caring partner in the future?

The next morning, just as the sky was beginning to turn pale, Xu Xiaoxiao was still intoxicated in a gentle dream when suddenly, she was awakened by a sharp ring from her cell phone.

She sat up from the bed sleepily, groping on the bedside table, and finally grabbed the phone.

The bright light from the screen hurt her eyes, so she squinted and barely saw that the caller ID was Xiaomei.

"Hello?" Her voice was a little hoarse and full of sleepiness.

Xiaomei's crying voice came from the other end of the phone. The cry was like a sharp sword, piercing Xu Xiaoxiao's eardrum and making her heart tighten suddenly.

"Xiaoxiao, my grandma, grandma..." Xiaomei seemed to be crying very sadly, and the rest of her words were drowned out by the sobs and could not be heard clearly.

Xu Xiaoxiao anxiously put the phone close to her ear, trying hard to distinguish every word Xiaomei said.

"What happened to grandma? Don't cry yet, tell me slowly."

Xu Xiaoxiao's voice was trembling a little. All kinds of bad thoughts kept flashing through her mind. Her heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Xiaomei's voice was trembling, like a candle in the wind, and it seemed that it could be blown out at any time.

There was a hint of tears in her words, which made people feel pity for her.

"Grandma, I don't know what happened,"

Xiaomei said, her voice revealing endless fear and helplessness, "She said she was too tired when she came back last night, so I asked her to go to bed early. After she fell asleep, she hasn't woken up since."

Xu Xiaoxiao had a bad feeling in her heart, "Xiaomei, don't be anxious."

"Xiaoxiao, I, wuwuwu, I couldn't wake her up no matter how I called her. She seemed to be in a deep sleep. No matter how I shook her body or called her name, she didn't respond at all, wuwuwu..."

Xiaomei's voice became lower and lower, and finally became almost a whisper, "Also, she was very cold, I felt...she was not breathing..."

This sentence seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing Xiaomei to completely collapse emotionally.

"You, come quickly!"

Xiaomei cried, her voice revealing deep fear and helplessness, as if the whole world was about to collapse.

"I'm so scared alone... wuwuwu..."

Her words were intermittent, and it seemed that she had used up all her strength to say each word. "I really don't know what to do. I'm so afraid that grandma will leave me..."

On the other end of the phone, Xiaomei's crying was like a flood that broke through the dam, coming continuously and echoing in the air, making people feel extremely heartbroken.

Her crying was full of despair and sadness, as if she had lost all hope.

When Xu Xiaoxiao heard this, her heart was in turmoil and an ominous premonition came to her mind.

There was a hint of urgency in her voice, as if she could sense Xiaomei's fear and anxiety at the moment.

She said quickly: "Xiaomei, don't be afraid, I will be by your side soon. You must be strong and protect grandma."

Her words were full of concern and comfort, hoping to give Xiaomei some courage and strength.

She also prayed silently in her heart, hoping that everything was still in time and that her grandmother would be safe.

After saying that, Xu Xiaoxiao quickly hung up the phone, and while getting dressed she said to herself: Grandma, you must hold on, we will be there soon.

Xu Xiaoxiao's face was filled with anxiety and worry, and her movements became more and more rapid.

Outside the window at this moment, the sky is gradually brightening, but it seems to be a little gloomy, as if it is also sad about this sudden change.

Xu Xiaoxiao was too busy to even wash up, and ran downstairs in her clothes, startling Fu Yanchen who was reading a newspaper in the living room.

"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong? It's still early, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Fu Yanchen asked with concern. He was used to getting up early, and unless there was something special, he would wake up on time. He went to bed on time last night, so he woke up naturally at that time today.

"Something happened to Xiaomei's grandma. I'll go over to take a look." Xu Xiaoxiao looked anxious and prepared to go out with her bag.

Upon hearing this, Fu Yanchen immediately grabbed the car keys and a piece of bread, "I'll give it to you."

His voice was firm and warm, bringing a sense of comfort to Xu Xiaoxiao.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, and the two hurried to the garage. In the car, Fu Yanchen handed the bread to Xu Xiaoxiao, "Eat some first, to fill your stomach. Don't be too busy to eat."

Xu Xiaoxiao took the bread, feeling grateful, "...Thank you."

Her voice was a little choked, but it was more of gratitude and dependence on Fu Yanchen.

At this critical moment, with Fu Yanchen by her side, she felt that she was no longer alone.

The two drove to the hotel. Along the way, Xu Xiaoxiao's heart was in a knot, praying that Grandma Xiaomei would be safe.

When they hurried back to the hotel, Nan Weiwei had just arrived, and Sister Na also came over. When they opened the door, they saw Xiaomei curled up in the corner, crying like a tearful person.

Her eyes were very red and swollen, and tears kept flowing like a flood, seemingly unable to be stopped. Her appearance made people feel very distressed, as if she had suffered great pain and grievance.

Grandma lay quietly on the bed, as if the whole world had nothing to do with her.

Her body was as still as if in deep sleep, as if forgotten by time.

The faint sound of her breathing was like a candle in the wind. Although it was so weak that it was almost imperceptible, it stubbornly proved that she was still alive.

This faint breathing sound seemed to be the last bit of life's persistence, waging a silent battle with death in the endless darkness.

His face was calm and peaceful, like a sleeping baby, without any sign of pain or distress.

Xu Xiaoxiao and Fu Yanchen stood beside the bed, feeling as heavy as if they were being weighed down by a heavy burden.

They stared at their grandmother's pale face, and an unspeakable fear and ominous premonition surged in their hearts.

Grandma's silence made them feel inexplicably nervous, as if she might leave them at any time.

Fu Yanchen looked at Xiaomei's grandmother and felt that something was wrong more and more. He took out his cell phone and dialed 120.

After hanging up the phone, he turned around and questioned Xiaomei: "Why didn't you call the emergency number? Do you know that this might delay the rescue time?"

Xiao Mei was frightened by Fu Yanchen's questioning and stammered to explain: "I... I was so anxious that I had no idea. I just knew to come to you. I... I really don't know what to do."

"Okay, Fu Yanchen, don't blame Xiaomei, now wait for the doctor to come!"

Xu Xiaoxiao patted Xiaomei's shoulder gently, with a soothing tone in her voice.

She knew that everyone was immersed in sadness and anxiety, and blaming and complaining would not solve the problem.

After hearing what Xu Xiaoxiao said, Fu Yanchen did not continue speaking, but just sighed deeply.

He turned and walked out of the room, standing outside waiting for the ambulance. He felt extremely heavy-hearted, and his mind kept replaying all the people who had left him over the years. He felt uncomfortable, but fortunately, the little girl he cared about the most was still by his side, and had given birth to a cute and naughty son.

He didn't have much affection for Xiaomei's grandmother, and he wasn't very sad. He questioned Xiaomei because he didn't want Xu Xiaoxiao to be sad.

Soon, the ambulance came roaring in, and the medical staff quickly and orderly lifted Grandma Xiaomei into the car, and then sped away.

Fu Yanchen, Xu Xiaoxiao, Xiaomei, Na Jie and Nan Weiwei followed closely behind, praying for a miracle to happen in their hearts.

However, the miracle did not happen.

Not long after, the doctor came out of the emergency room, shaking his head with a heavy face.

"We have done our best, and the family members are deeply saddened."

The doctor's voice was deep and powerful, and every word hit everyone's heart like a hammer. "The old lady was in the late stage of cancer. It's better for her to leave like this, without pain."

Hearing this, Xiaomei's tears burst out again. She threw herself into Xu Xiaoxiao's arms and cried bitterly.

It was a cruel fact that the body could not be brought back to Lin City. The hospital suggested cremation and they would help contact the funeral home. This news was like a bolt from the blue to Xiaomei, leaving her completely stunned.

Xiaomei couldn't accept this reality. She stood there blankly, her grandmother's kind face and warm smile constantly appearing in her mind.

Grandma was the most important person in her life, and they had a deep relationship. But now, grandma suddenly left her and was cremated, which made Xiaomei feel extremely painful and helpless.

Her tears burst out like a flood, and she didn't know how to face it all.

Cremating her grandmother's body means that she will lose her grandmother forever and will never be able to see her grandmother or hear her voice again.

This decision was too heavy for Xiaomei and she felt her heart was broken.

"Xiaoxiao, can you not cremate her? She is my grandma, my grandma."

Xiaomei held Xu Xiaoxiao's hand, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice filled with reluctance and pleading.

She couldn't accept that her grandmother had left like this, and she couldn't accept the fact that her grandmother was going to be cremated.

Xu Xiaoxiao felt sad when she saw Xiaomei's painful expression.

She understood Xiaomei's feelings and knew how important grandma was in Xiaomei's heart.

However, she also understood that cremation was the hospital's recommendation and was now a common way of dealing with corpses.

"Xiao Mei, I know you are sad, and I am sad too."

Xu Xiaoxiao said softly, "However, cremation is a way for grandma to rest in peace, and it is also the best choice we can make now. Grandma would not want to see you suffer so much because of her."

Xiaomei couldn't help but shed tears after listening to Xu Xiaoxiao's words.

She knew that what Xu Xiaoxiao said was right, but she still couldn't accept it in her heart.

Xu Xiaoxiao hugged Xiaomei tightly, patted her back gently, and comforted her.

After a while, Xiaomei finally calmed down. She raised her head and looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, with a determined light in her eyes.

"Okay, Xiaoxiao, I'll listen to you. Grandma will definitely want to see me being strong."

Xu Xiaoxiao felt relieved when she heard Xiaomei's words.

She knew that although Xiaomei was young, she was a strong child.

She believed that her grandmother in heaven would be proud of Xiaomei's strength.

Xiaomei herself is still a child and has never encountered anything like this before, so she has no experience in dealing with such situations.

Being in the prosperous imperial capital, Xiaomei feels strange and unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, as if she is lost in a huge maze.

In this strange city, she had nowhere to turn to and the only people she could rely on were her two good friends, Xu Xiaoxiao and Nan Weiwei.

At this moment, Xiaomei's originally bright eyes were filled with helplessness and confusion.

Her eyes wandered and seemed to have lost focus, as if the whole world had become blurred before her eyes.

Faced with this sudden change, Xiaomei felt as if she was knocked down by a powerful force and was unable to stand up again.

Seeing Xiaomei so helpless, Xu Xiaoxiao and Nan Weiwei couldn't help but feel pity in their hearts.

They knew Xiaomei's predicament at the time and helped her deal with the aftermath.

Although they themselves may not be familiar with the specific operating procedures, out of concern and friendship for Xiaomei, they are willing to do their best to face this difficult task.

They ran around, asked about the procedures, prepared items, and did their best to make Xiaomei feel a little comforted. Fu Yanchen saw it all and felt pain in his heart, seeing that Xu Xiaoxiao looked much more haggard in just one day.

He couldn't bear to see Xu Xiaoxiao so tired, so he took over everything.

Fu Yanchen has experience in this kind of thing. His relatives have left him one by one, and he understands the hardships and difficulties of dealing with funerals.

He calmly communicated with the hospital, handled various procedures, and arranged the cremation time.

At the same time, he also took Xiaomei's feelings into consideration and decided to apply for a sea burial for Xiaomei's grandmother.

Sea burial is a way to allow the deceased to return to nature and live forever with the sea.

Fu Yanchen felt that this might be the best destination for his grandmother.

He carefully explained to Xiaomei the significance and process of sea burial. After listening to it, although Xiaomei still felt a little sad, she also felt that this was a very good choice.

Everything was done, and Fu Yanchen asked them to go back to the hotel to rest. Nan Weiwei saw that Xu Xiaoxiao looked unwell, so she asked Fu Yanchen to take care of Xu Xiaoxiao and go home. She sent Xiaomei and Na Jie back to the hotel, and Tiantian was still in the hotel.

Along the way, the car was filled with silence and sadness, but Nan Weiwei still tried her best to comfort them and let them know that no matter what happened, they were not facing it alone.

After returning to the hotel, Xiaomei threw herself on the bed and tears flowed again.

She knew that her grandmother had left her forever, but she was also grateful that there were so many people around her to accompany her and go through this difficult time together.
