Before entering the house, Lin Chen clearly heard the sound of sobbing coming from within.
Although faint, the sound conveyed a deep sense of grief to those who heard it.
Nothing in this world can be withheld.
Life and death are beyond human control; even without this incident, as revealed by Pan Yan earlier, he wouldn't survive for more than a few years.
"Let's go."
After pausing slightly outside the door, Lin Chen sighed softly, knocked on the door, and said, "Xiao Ying, it's me."
"I don't want to see anyone right now!"
From inside the house came the sound of crying mixed with speaking.
Lin Chen's hand paused slightly as it knocked on the door. He knew Xiao Ying's current state wasn't good, but he didn't expect it to be this bad.
"Brother Lin Chen, you should leave. Let me try to persuade her. Maybe seeing you now will remind her of Grandfather Pan's condition before he died..."
