Chapter 303 The Purple Princess (3)

It’s well known that Xiran Xiao dotes Jingyan the most.

With a little bit of hope, Jingyan felt the stone in his heart lighten, so he gobbled up at night.

Early the next morning, the family packed up and drove to the only military hospital in Sky City.

The old man was over ninety years old, and his illness has gotten worse for the past two years, his
condition was so urgent that he couldn't control it, so he told Xiran Xiao that he wanted to go back
home, go back to his motherland, and if he died, he wanted to be buried next to his parents’ graves.

Xiran Xiao did not want to see her father pass away like that, and after returning to China, she found for
many famous doctors for him, and after transferred many times, finally came to the Sky City Military
Hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital, the four members of the Mu family and the old lady of Xiao family
were all there, and the old master of Xiao family was lying in bed with his eyes squinted slightly, not
knowing if he was asleep.

Because the two families only had one precious daughter, Chuxue is the beloved child of the old lady,
she waved when she saw Chuxue coming, "Little girl is here, come over and let the old lady take a
look."

Chuxue walked to her quickly and snuggled into her arms, smiling and saying, "Grandma, I miss you so
much, and I miss grandpa too."

The old lady poked her head lightly and whined like a child, "Good at talking, but you don't come to see
us even though you miss us."

"Grandma, I've been too busy lately, I'll come to see you and grandpa every day from now on, as long
as you don't mind." Chuxue squatted beside her, tilting her head in a very good manner.



The old lady laughed, "Yes, you're quite busy, busy being a heroine, aren't you?"

Chuxue was surprised, "Grandma, you watched that video too?"

Xiran Xiao said, "Yes, the old lady saw it early yesterday morning and praised you for doing the right
thing."

Chuxue smiled arrogantly, took the old master's hand and whispered to him, "Grandpa, Ruyi is here to
see you."

The old master squinted his cloudy eyes feebly, hearing Chuxue’s words, he moved his lips but unable
to hear what he said clearly. Chuxue's heart plunged, she’s on the verge of tears.

"The old master can hear you, but he can’t talk, look, he's blinking at you," The old lady's tone was
peaceful and she’s still smiling, not much sadness could be sensed, yet only those who’re closed to her
knew that she slept next to the old man every night, holding his hands tightly.

Feeling so depressed in her heart, Venus pulled Xiran to a corner and asked softly, "What is the current
condition of the old man's health?"

Xiran's eyes were bloodshot and she looked slightly tired, "The doctor said he wouldn't hold on long
and told us to stop vain efforts so that the old man wouldn't have to suffer from transferring. But I ......"

Seeing her burst into tears, Venus hugged her into her arms and comforted her gently, "Okay, okay,
let's listen to God, don't cry, the old lady should be sad when she sees it."

Twenty more years of time didn’t erode Xiran's beauty, she’s still the same gorgeous and charming
woman but now became calm and mature, and more like a noblewoman. Sometimes she is even
striking up by men when she walks alone in the streets.



Xiran clenched her teeth to keep her tears from rolling down and said with a sigh, "I know it's the law of
the world, but children always want their parents to live a long and healthy life and stay with them for a
long time."

"You're much better than us," said Venus, taking her hand, "look at the four of us, you're the only one
with living parents, you're much luckier than us, don't be sad."

"Mmm."

While Jingyan and the Mu brothers talked about business matters, Kerry and Tianye Mu walked out of
the ward and stood by the window in the hallway to discuss the old man's afterlife in low voice.

"It's already been arranged, the old man prefers tranquility and doesn't want us to make it big, so when
the day does come, we'll do it simply."

Kerry’s voice was also a bit heavy, "But what should be there still all must be there, it can't be too
simple and look too desolate for the old man."

"That's for sure."

"These days Pingan and Ruyi will come over to keep the old man company, they had always bothered
the old man when they were little."

Tianye nodded, "Well, the old man likes these kids. I'm just worried about Xiran, I'm afraid she'll be too
grieved."

"Sister-in-law is not an experienced woman, indeed, she will be grieved for a while, you should work
with her more often." Kerry looked at the lawn downstairs outside the window, a girl in johnny was
walking slowly, a soldier next to her was caring for her carefully and they were saying something.



When the girl turned around and smiled, Kerry felt that she looked familiar, as if he had seen her
somewhere before.

"What are you looking at?" Tianye followed his eyes and looked over, "Acquaintance?"

"Seems like I've seen her somewhere, but I can’t remember." Kerry said with a frown.

Tianye didn't care, and they returned to the ward.

Jingyan kept thinking about his request and waited for his mother and aunt to finish talking before he
came over and said shyly, "Auntie, I have something want to ask for your help."

Xiran finally smiled when she saw Jingyan, "Don’t be shy to ask for auntie’s help, just say what it is."

Jingyan rubbed his head like a timid boy, "Auntie, do you have any connections in the military
community? I want to find someone."

Xiran understood as soon as she heard it, "Oh! You are looking for the little girl you were very close to
in your childhood?"

"How do you know that, auntie?" Jingyan was surprised.

"Do you think you can hide something from me, kiddo?" Xiran teased at him and said seriously, "I just
know a doctor here, I don't have any connections in the army, why don't I take you to ask him."

"Will it be trouble?"

"No trouble, he happens to be on duty today, I'll take you there."

Jingyan was overjoyed and nodded hastily, Chuxue interrupted them at this moment, "Auntie, I want to
go too."



"Why are you going?" Jingyan glared at her.

"It’s none of your business." Chuxue made a face at her brother, hugged Xiran's arm and said, "Auntie,
I'll go with you."

"No problem." Xiran was also doting on this girl.

Jingyan shook his head speechlessly, this girl has boomed curiosity.

The three of them went downstairs and came to the doctor's office. Xiran said that her nephew wanted
to find his friend in childhood, who was also a soldier. The doctor laughed, "This is like looking for a
needle in a haystack, not to mention the whole army, even a regiment and a division have many
people, I can’t give you my promise. But what's your friend's name, maybe I've actually heard of her."

"Her name is Yiyao Duan." Jingyan said seriously.

The middle-aged doctor was stunned as if he hadn't heard him clearly, he asked again, "What did you
say, what’s her name?"

"Yiyao Duan, she's 28 years old." This was all the information Jingyan knew, he didn't even know what
kind of soldier Yiyao Duan was.

The middle-aged doctor's expression turned serious and said to Xiran, "I'm really sorry, I don't know
who he's talking about."

Xiran seemed to see what was going on and didn't force her friend, smiling, "It's alright, don’t mind us,
we'll leave first then."

"Well," the middle-aged doctor watched them go out and called out again, "Xiran, wait a moment, I still
have something to tell you."



Xiran turned around and saw him winking at her, so she said to Jingyan and Chuxue, "You guys go up
first."

Jingyan did not show anything emotion, but in his heart, he understood that the truth was not what the
doctor had said.

"Brother, why do I think this doctor knows her." Chuxue said as she hugged his arm.

Jingyan gave her a grimace, "You see that too?"

"It's too obvious. But why did he say he didn't know?"

Jingyan was depressed, "Perhaps, she has a special identity."
