20 can't do that

During breakfast, Gao Wen told us that she was going to quit.

Gao Ying was stunned, "Quit out? You will quit in less than a day?"

"I can't hold on," Gao Wen said expressionlessly, "Either it hurts to death or it's scared to death. I'm only twenty-three years old, I don't want to die... I don't want to be the head of the family anymore, you guys do it. After dinner, I'll leave."

"Are you just trying to be the head of the family?" Gao Ying frowned, "If we hold on for one more day, grandpa will be more safe. Don't you understand?"

Gao Wen's eyes were wet and she smiled bitterly, "Yes, if we hold on for one more day, grandpa will be safer. But I can't hold on anymore, how can I hold on?"

She looked at Gao Ying sadly, "Sister, I am not as strong as you. I have been afraid of injections since I was a child. For grandpa, I have tried my best. Yesterday I vomited so much blood, and almost hurt. I had nightmares at night, and I was almost scared to death! Moreover, I shed so much blood, my pants were soaked, and the bed was everywhere... How much blood can a person have? I am afraid that if I don't quit, I won't have enough blood!"

She cried and lay on the table and sobbed.

Gao Ying got up and sat down next to her, holding her shoulder, "Gao Wen..."

"I am only twenty-three years old, and my boyfriend is still waiting for me. I don't want to die..." Gao Wen cried in her sister's arms like a helpless child.

Gao Ying had no choice but to turn to look at Gao Quan.

Gao Quan remained silent and lowered his head to drink porridge.

Gao Ying had no choice but to look at me again and ask what I mean.

I looked at Gao Wen, "Gao Wen, are you really quitting?"

Gao Wen nodded in tears, "Yes."

"Don't regret it?" I asked.

She nodded again, "Yeah!"

I breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Yes, then you can leave in a while."

Gao Wen stood up and bowed to me in tears, "Thank you, Master."

She glanced at Gao Quan and Gao Ying, turned around and walked out of the restaurant.

"Young Master, this..." Gao Ying was a little helpless.

"Someone will always withdraw," I said, "Only one of you three can persevere until the end, and that person is the new head of the Gao family."

I took a look at Gao Quan who was eating.

Gao Ying also looked at him.

Gao Quan stopped, chewed slowly, swallowed the food in his mouth, looked up at us, stood up, and turned around to leave.

Gao Ying stood up with a bang, "Brother!"

Gao Quan stopped, he was in a very entangled mood. After a long time, he sighed helplessly.

"Persevere, okay?" Tears flashed in Gao Ying's eyes.

Gao Quan glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, nodded, "I'll do my best."

He turned and left.

Gao Ying knew that Gao Quan was on the verge of collapse and he couldn't last long.

She sat down slowly, took a deep breath, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and lowered her head to drink porridge.

"Don't you want to be the head of the family?" I asked.

She shook her head.

"Why?" I wondered.

"It's too tiring to be a head of the family," she said.

I looked at the tears in her eyes and knew that she was not lying.

Although this girl is the eldest granddaughter of the Gao family, she has always been marginalized. Gao Yinlong values ​​Gao Long and loves Gao Wen. She cares very much about Gao Quan, but she has always been lukewarm with Gao Ying, the granddaughter. Gao Ying is strong, independent, and a little arrogant. She is the lady of the Gao family, but her wish is not to take charge of the Gao family. On the contrary, what she wants is to leave.

She wants to leave this family and live a free and neither humble nor arrogant life. This is her dream.

But now it seems that this dream is basically impossible to realize.

Gao Ying took a few bites of porridge, calmed down, and asked me, "If I quit, will grandpa have something to do?"

I looked at her calmly and didn't say anything.

Her eyes were shining with tears, and she looked at me, waiting for my answer sincerely.

What should I say?

Say it's okay? Let her quit?

Can Gao Quan withstand the energy of the dragon vein?

Say something is wrong, let her persevere?

What about her dream? What should I do? "Young Master, can you tell me?" She held back the tears in her eyes and asked me again, "If I quit, will grandpa be in trouble?" I smiled calmly, "Are you scared?"

"I'm not afraid," she said.

"Then why do you quit?" I asked, "To help your brother, or to help yourself?"

"I don't want to be the head of the family," she said, "I'm for my grandfather."

"Then why do you want to quit again?" I asked.

She avoided my gaze and let out a long sigh.

I stood up, patted her on the shoulder, and turned around to leave.

"I am a girl, and my brother should do it," she said lightly.

"So that's what you think from the beginning?" I looked at her, "You think your brother is the pillar and he will persevere until the end, and you and Gao Wen are just for your grandfather. You can quit when you can't hold on, right?"

She stood up and looked at me, "I didn't think about quitting, but if someone had to quit, it should be me and Gao Wen. What I thought was that I would stick to the last moment, but I wouldn't be the head of the family. As long as my brother insisted, I would persist. When my grandfather was fine, I would quit and let my brother be the head of the family."

This girl's kindness deeply touched me.

I walked up to her and asked seriously, "What do you think so?"

She nodded calmly.

I looked at her for a while, smiled, stretched out my hand, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "If possible, I really want to fulfill you... but it's a pity that I can't do that."

She was stunned, "You..."

"Promise me, don't let me go." I looked at her, "Try my best to persevere, I really can't hold on anymore, you can quit. This is the most important moment in your life, don't leave yourself regrets."

"But my brother..."

"If your brother can't hold on, then he is not qualified to be the head of the family," I said, "Whoever can hold on to the end will be the head of the family. If you deliberately let him, you will be irresponsible to your grandfather and everyone in the Gao family, including yourself."

She looked at me in a tangled manner, wanting to speak but stopping, "I...but..."

I smiled slightly and patted her on the shoulder, "I'll go see Gao Wen. After you finish cleaning, go to the living room to wait for me."

She hesitated for a moment and nodded silently, "Okay."
