Chapter 30 Time's up!
Time passed by minute by minute.
Qin Yuyang and Qin Yuhai were both working on their computers.
Xiao Jiu Jiu was sitting on the sofa inside watching TV.
"Knock knock knock."
A soft tapping sound was heard on the glass.
Xiao Jiu Jiu's gaze fell on the window.
The coal ball was perched on the windowsill, its claws tapping on the window.
She quickly got up and opened the window a crack.
Coal Ball slipped in and whispered, "Meow~"
[It must have been tough for them to get here; they must have arrived a long time ago.]
"Ah."
Xiao Jiujiu also kept her voice very low.
"Xiao Jiu, did you open the window?" Qin Yuhai looked up and saw Xiao Jiu standing by the window.
The coal briquette hid when it heard the sound.
Xiao Jiu Jiu turned around and casually closed the window: "I just came in for a little fresh air, sorry."
"It's okay, it can breathe."
Qin Yuhai waved his hand.
Anyway, they're so far away, the wind won't reach the old lady.
"Knock knock knock."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Qin Yuyang got up and opened the door.
Ye Xuan and Qin Xin were both carrying lunchboxes, with Qin Hao following behind them, playing on his phone.
"Come in," Qin Yuyang said calmly, and Ye Xuan and Qin Xin quickly entered.
Upon seeing Qin Hao, Qin Yuyang slapped him on the head: "What time is it? Still playing! My phone is confiscated! You can't play it for a week!"
What a jerk! Just looking at him is annoying!
"Dad! Why can't I play! I want to play!" Qin Hao said, lying down on the ground and throwing a tantrum.
Qin Yuyang had never really disciplined the child before, and seeing him being disobedient, he looked at Ye Xuan beside him and said, "How do you discipline the child!"
"It's all because your mother spoils the child so much that he's become like this!" Ye Xuan retorted without any politeness.
Don't think that marrying into the Qin family is all that glamorous.
That old woman from the Qin family is a real handful.
The only thing to blame is the old lady's preference for sons over daughters; she spoiled her eldest grandson like a treasure.
Even her mother can't control her.
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Qin Yuhai said, "Stop arguing, let's eat first. Xiao Jiu must be starving."
"Ah."
Xiao Jiujiu quickly nodded, temporarily putting the matter aside.
Qin Xin is in a much better mood now.
She looked around warily, and breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see the Black and White Impermanence. She then placed the lunchbox on the table.
"Sister, I'm sorry." Qin Xin obediently walked up to Xiao Jiu Jiu and apologized.
Xiao Jiu Jiu keenly noticed that she was walking a little awkwardly, probably because Ye Xuan had spanked her.
She felt a little guilty: "It's okay, it's my fault."
"No, it has nothing to do with you, I'm sorry..." Qin Xin lowered her head and spoke softer and softer.
When she got back, she secretly asked Qin Hao, and he really didn't see anything.
I didn't see any other people's reactions either.
Therefore, only you can see it.
She made a mistake.
If I were a little bolder...
"All right."
Xiao Jiujiu chuckled and patted her, then secretly slapped a talisman onto Qin Xin and disappeared.
This is a temporary shield that will prevent her from seeing ghosts.
Although the two uncles were brought there by Grandma, it was still her fault for not saying anything.
Qin Xin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright!" Ye Xuan clapped her hands. "It's all settled. Let's eat."
Qin Yuyang smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat!"
Xiao Jiu Jiu sat on the sofa with great interest.
The coffee table was covered with many dishes.
Ye Xuan smiled gently: "These were all prepared by the family chef. Xiao Jiu has never eaten them before, has she? Try them."
"Ah."
Seeing the table full of delicious food, Xiao Jiu Jiu didn't stand on ceremony and picked up her chopsticks to start eating heartily.
Seeing how much she enjoyed her meal, Qin Yuhai and Qin Yuyang couldn't help but eat more.
It's around eight o'clock in the evening.
Ye Xuan packed up the food box and took the two children home.
In the ward, Xiao Jiu Jiu was resting on the sofa.
Qin Yuhai and Qin Yuyang chatted casually.
"How long has Mom been in this condition?" Qin Yuhai looked at his mother lying on the bed, feeling a mix of emotions.
She was his biological mother after all, and she had never mistreated him.
Qin Yuyang's brows were full of worry: "It's been more than a month. At first, I just felt unwell, but later I couldn't eat and fainted from hunger."
I haven't been eating much lately, and I've lost a lot of weight.
Putting everything else aside, the old woman was truly good to her two sons, protecting them like the apples of her eye.
Therefore, Qin Yuyang didn't care about his mother's various actions, as long as they weren't too outrageous.
"Sigh..." Qin Yuhai sighed, but his tone didn't reveal anything unusual.
The doctor came to check on the patient after lunchtime.
They said the old lady might wake up tonight, but if she doesn't, the chances of her waking up are much smaller.
The doctor also advised them to stay with the old lady for a while longer, as her health was already at its limit.
Simply put, he doesn't have many days left to live.
For a moment, both of them were silent.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Just then, Dong Qiufeng, who had been unconscious on the bed all afternoon, started coughing.
Xiao Jiu Jiu's eyes lit up: Time's up!
