After a long while, Ji Wei finally lifted her head from Mo Qian's chest.
"Mo Qian, I want to go see Grandma." After a pause, Ji Wei said hoarsely.
The woman's eyes were red like a rabbit's. Although distressed, Mo Qian understood the place Old Madam Ji held in Ji Wei's heart. What had just happened certainly weighed heavily on Old Madam Ji as much as it did on Ji Wei.
"Alright, let's go together," Mo Qian replied softly.
When they arrived at Cuiya Residence, A Xiu was standing guard at the door to Old Madam Ji's room, which was closed.
"How is Grandma doing?" Ji Wei asked worriedly.
A Xiu glanced at the door with concern. "The old madam said she wanted to rest as soon as she got back. She didn't even have dinner. Madam Yunxiang's situation… it really broke her heart."
"Let me try," Ji Wei said, attempting to knock on the door. "Grandma, it's Little Wei. May I come in?"
There was silence inside the room.
"Grandma, can I talk with you for a while?" Ji Wei asked again.
