PFC Chapter 293 No Regrets at All
Chapter 293 No Regrets at All
Once you enter this room, you will have to go through the identity verification process.
Gu Jiu performed the identity verification slowly and with a soft "beep" sound, the tightly closed door slowly opened like a giant beast slowly waking up.
Gu Ranle's curiosity was like a small flame that suddenly popped up.
As soon as the door opened a crack, she stretched her neck like a little monkey, opened her eyes wide, and looked into the room hard.
But there was something that looked like a screen at the door, blocking her view completely. She couldn't see what was inside at all.
The way she peeped out her head looked just like a thief sneaking around.
Gu Jiu saw this from the side and slapped her in the face.
"I say, can you be a little more promising? You act like a bumpkin who has never seen the world." Gu Jiu muttered unhappily.
Gu Ranle rubbed her head which was hurt by being slapped. She pouted her lips with displeasure on her face and complained in a hoarse voice: "Old man, you slapped my head again! If you keep slapping me like this, I will be slapped into a fool!"
Gu Jiu glanced at her sideways and replied slowly: "Humph, just the opposite. If I hadn't patted you from time to time over the years, would you be so smart now?"
"..."
Gu Ranle was speechless after hearing this. He rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "I've never seen you act like a grandfather. Next time I see my great-grandfather, I'll tell him everything about you beating me!"
"Oh, you are a complainer. You just know how to complain all day long and don't you feel tired?" Gu Jiu was not to be outdone and immediately retorted.
"Who told you to talk nonsense at your age?" Gu Ranle was so angry that his cheeks puffed up like a little frog.
The grandparents and grandchildren walked into the room slowly while bickering with each other.
After walking around the screen at the door, they finally arrived in the room.
The light in this room is not too bright, but it is enough for people to see the furnishings inside clearly.
This place looks like a laboratory.
There were two beds placed side by side in the middle of the room, with two people lying on them.
Gu Ranle's first reaction was, Oh my god, someone is sleeping here! This is too weird, how could someone sleep here?
But then, she shook her head again, and began to wonder in her heart: Could it be that these two people are Ci Nian and Song Yan?
She frowned and walked forward cautiously.
Because she had seen these two people last night in that dream-like chaotic time and space, she recognized them at a glance.
"Are they still alive?"
Gu Ranle couldn't help but scream out in surprise, her voice full of disbelief.
Normally, the two people she met last night were from 25 years ago, so how come they are as young now as when she met them last night?
He looked about her age, and it was as if time had stopped for them.
If she hadn't seen them with her own eyes last night, if someone suddenly told her now that these two people were her biological parents, she would definitely think that the other person was crazy.
You know, even her great-grandfather, whose life span was much longer than that of ordinary people and whose aging rate was much slower than that of ordinary people, could visibly see with her own eyes that he had aged in these twenty-five years. His hair had turned a lot whiter and his face had more wrinkles.
But the two people in front of me seemed to be forgotten by time. The years have not left even a trace on their faces. Their skin is still so smooth and they look so young.
This is too unreasonable!
The more Gu Ranle thought about it, the weirder it seemed.
Gu Ranle suddenly seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up like two little stars twinkling, and he quickly asked, "Grandpa, could they be clones?"
After hearing this, Gu Jiu looked at his granddaughter speechlessly, muttering in his heart: Oh no, oh no, it seems that this girl has really been fooled, what a mess she is thinking of, cloning, it's a pity she can even think of that.
Gu Jiu raised his hand subconsciously, like a reflex, and kept muttering, "You're just thinking about random things all day long. I don't know what's in your head!"
When Gu Ranle saw this, his brows wrinkled into a small pimple in an instant. He quickly held his head with both hands and jumped away like a frightened rabbit, shouting: "Old man, you are going too far! Why are you patting my head again! If you keep patting me, I will be slapped silly!"
Gu Jiu looked at her alert face, then looked at his raised hand, and finally put it down helplessly, forcing a smile on his face, and said, "Oh, I'm used to it. This habit really can't be changed in a short time."
Gu Ranle rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "You know you always pat me on the head? You're used to it! How can you be a grandfather like that? You have to change it in the future, do you hear me?"
Gu Jiu smiled and nodded repeatedly to promise: "Change it! I will definitely change it! I will never film it again in the future!"
"That's more like it." Gu Ranle nodded with satisfaction.
Gu Ranle carefully walked forward a few steps again, came to the bedside, raised his hand and gently touched Ci Nian's forehead.
It felt cold, just like touching a piece of cold jade, and it didn't feel like there was any temperature at all.
She stretched out her finger again and touched Song Yan gently. Song Yan had body temperature, just like a normal person.
"He's still alive!"
Gu Ranle seemed to have discovered something terrible. He quickly retracted his hand in fear and suddenly jumped back a big step. His eyes were wide open and his face was full of fear.
Seeing this, Gu Jiu quickly raised his hand and placed it firmly on her shoulder, and whispered to her in comfort: "Yes, he is still alive, but he is a vegetable and has never woken up. Ci Nian... is brain dead. In the past 25 years, their bodies have been preserved in a special liquid, so they look no different from 25 years ago, as if time has stopped for them."
"I see." Gu Ranle nodded, not quite understanding. Her expression became serious. She looked at the two people lying on the bed, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Has the person behind the scenes been caught? The one who caused all this."
Gu Jiu sighed softly, shook his head and said, "Not yet, but don't worry about it. Your great-grandfather knows it well and he will make arrangements."
"What about them? What does great-grandfather plan to do with them?" Gu Ranle pointed at the two people on the bed, his eyes full of solemnity.
Gu Jiu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Your great-grandfather let you decide on this matter. No matter what, they are your parents after all. Although you have always been very sensible and have never mentioned wanting parents in front of me, I know in my heart that you actually envy others for having parents who love you. It's a pity that even though you have met them now, it's such a scene."
Gu Jiu said this, looking at his granddaughter with heartache, feeling mixed emotions.
If there was a way to save them, no matter what the cost, he would do it without hesitation and must bring them back to life.
Unfortunately, he doesn't have that ability, and even his master doesn't have that ability.
Maybe, this is fate. Some things really cannot be changed by human power.
Gu Ranle's eyes slightly reddened after hearing what Gu Jiu said. She walked forward, gently patted Gu Jiu's shoulder, and said with a choked voice: "No regrets, really no regrets. I met them last night and know what kind of environment I was born in. I also know why I appeared in the mountains and forests and was found and rescued by you. I also know that they love me, and that's enough. Oh, by the way, Ci Nian also asked me to thank you, thank you for raising me so well."
As she spoke, Gu Ranle turned around and hugged Gu Jiu tightly, burying her face in his arms, and said in a crying voice: "Grandpa, have I never told you thank you for raising me so well? Thank you for raising me and raising me so well. I think I must have accumulated virtues for ten lifetimes to meet you in this life and become your granddaughter. But if there is an afterlife, I want to be the one to raise you, hold you in my hands, hold you in my arms, raise you little by little, and give you all my love."
Gu Jiu's eyes moistened as he listened to his granddaughter's words. He gently patted Gu Ranle's back and said in a trembling voice, "Okay, okay, Grandpa will wait for you to raise me. But in this life, Grandpa will definitely take good care of you and keep you safe and happy."
The grandparents hugged each other tightly, and the room was filled with a strong warmth, as if time had stopped at this moment.
The regrets of the past and the unknowns of the future no longer matter at this moment. What matters is that they have each other at this moment.
