Gu Jizhou stood outside the ward, lit a cigarette, and took a breath silently, glancing inside the ward, "My great-grandfather has woken up, I'm just letting you know he's safe."
Huo Jinnan put down his chopsticks, stood up, walked to the balcony, and looked at the sunlight outside the window, "Okay, got it."
Gu Jizhou paused, breathing heavily, "I'm leaving now, great-grandfather probably doesn't want to see me either."
Huo Jinnan, "Where are you going?"
"Where else? Serve my sentence properly."
Gu Jizhou glanced toward the ward, struggling to breathe.
Great-grandfather, you favored me for over twenty years, but I disappointed you greatly! I'm sorry!
Feeling uncomfortable in his throat, suddenly choked by the smoke, he coughed violently.
Inside the ward, the old man heard the sound outside, excitedly sat up, "Is... is it Jizhou?"
Gu Jizhou heard the old man's voice, felt a sting at the corner of his eye, his eyes suddenly welled up, and his throat tightened painfully.
