Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 1736 - 1672: Life Fading

Old Master Jiang’s lips moved, seeming like he was speaking, but no sound came out. Although he was awake, his Essence, Qi, and Spirit were nearly dissipated, wanting to speak, yet unable to do so.

He was clear in his mind, but precisely because of this, it was even more painful.

What is the best way for a person to die?

To not know anything, not feel pain, and simply pass away in sleep.

But what is the most painful?

To be clear-minded, with too many concerns and wishes in one’s heart, yet clearly knowing that life is slipping away.

That is the most terrifying.

This is the situation Old Master Jiang is in now.

He wanted to say, is there any good medicine that can pull a dying old man back from the brink of death? No, there’s none.

He also wanted to say, he really doesn’t want to die yet, he can’t just leave the Jiang Family to continue as it is; there are already initial signs of chaos, if left to go on like this, sooner or later it will fall apart.

No, it should be said, it will fall apart very soon.

How could he let the Jiang Family be ruined in his hands?

Of course, he also wanted to say, in this life, he hasn’t seen Xiao Sixth come back, he would absolutely die with regrets.

Back then, he always thought Xiao Sixth would be the most suitable successor as the head of the Jiang Family. He also trained Xiao Sixth in that direction, and Xiao Sixth always performed well. But who knew Xiao Sixth would go missing?

At first, they even received a distress signal from Xiao Sixth. With Xiao Sixth’s intelligence, even in those times, he could find someone to send a message.

But soon after, there was no more news.

He always refused to believe that with Xiao Sixth’s intelligence and wit, he couldn’t escape danger, couldn’t reconnect with the family, and couldn’t find a way to return home.

This refusal to believe supported Old Master Jiang to keep waiting, year after year.

He’d rather believe Xiao Sixth was delayed by some reason, and might come back soon.

This kind of hope also supported him to wait year after year.

But now it’s been nearly twenty years, and Xiao Sixth still hasn’t returned.

He remained unwilling, never wanting to choose another leader, always keeping this position open for Xiao Sixth.

Perhaps he was wrong in doing this, to the point where the brothers and nephews in the family became imbalanced in their hearts, starting all sorts of schemes.

Now it’s too late to regret.

With so many things weighing on his mind, Old Master Jiang was clear-minded yet forced to watch helplessly as his life slipped away.

"Old Master, don’t think too much now, please ease your mind, it’s really not the end yet, it can surely be cured." Doctor Chen said softly again.

No matter how good the medicine is, it can’t make one live forever, can it?

He was already of advanced age, actually nearing the end of life. Now that he’s been harmed by others, with his body failing, how can he be cured?

Old Master Jiang’s tears slowly trickled from the corners of his eyes.

Although Doctor Chen kept comforting him, truthfully, he was also deeply anxious and uneasy in his heart.

His uncle had indeed mentioned bringing some particularly good medicine, but as a doctor, Doctor Chen knew himself, how much good medicine could really be good enough to snatch an old man, with severely injured internal organs, from the hand of death?

Even if the medicine was indeed good, he was really worried it might be too late.

Uncle, you must hurry here.

Old Master Jiang looks, it really seems like the end is very near.

In the Capital City, on Liuli Street, in the courtyard house, Ah Liu always felt a bit stifled.
