The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter - Chapter 889: Little Christian's Resolve

While everyone was trying to comfort each other outside Grandpa Lu’s ward, Little Christian was already standing next to Grandpa Lu’s sickbed.

He was trying his best to hold his tears. His small hand held the wrinkled hand of his great grandfather. He could hear the weak beating of his heart.

Grandpa Lu looked so sick. His body was frail and his complexion was pale. Grandpa Lu was in grave danger. And the doctor said that they couldn’t guarantee if he could still recover even if he would undergo a major operation.

“Gramps… Please don’t die. Don’t leave us just yet. I want you to live longer and see me grow until I become an adult. You told me that you wanted to see me graduate and manage the company right?”

Christian continued talking to his great-grandpa. The stored tears started to flow down his cheeks. His heart was too heavy. He couldn’t accept that Grandpa Lu would no longer recover.

He still wanted to enjoy his company, learning more things from him. The young boy’s tears dropped, falling to Grandpa Lu’s hand.

Christian didn’t know if his great-grandpa was listening to him. He was not used to this silence. Whenever he would talk to Grandpa Lu, the old man would always reply. But now, all he could get was silence and the beeping sound of the machine which was connected to Grandpa Lu’s chest.

Christian clenched his fists, trying to control his raging fury. Even Blue, his fire dragon, could feel his negative emotions surging up inside his heart. Little Christian was about to lose control. He wanted to destroy something to release his anger.

“This is their fault!” Little Christian mumbled through his gritted teeth.

It did not take long when Blue showed up in front of Christian. He could no longer stay quiet. He was also hurting because of Christian’s negative feelings.

“Master, calm down,” Blue said. He appeared in his tiger form.

Christian immediately hugged Blue. This was the first time he showed his weakness in front of Blue. He was so sad and angry. Blue just let his young master hug him.

Blue had been with Christian, protecting him and watching him when he was born. He witnessed the strong bond between Grandpa Lu and Christian.

Christian might be aloof and distant to others, but to Grandpa Lu, he was a very sweet and respectful child. He knew how much Christian loved Grandpa Lu. He was very important to his young master, Christian.

So it also broke his heart, seeing them both like this. Grandpa Lu tried his best to hide his weakness and illness from everyone. He was suffering all alone.

“Your great-grandpa is very admirable. He is strong and cool, just like you. You both have the sense of responsibility.” Blue spoke up, sharing his thoughts with Christian.

Christian nodded his head before wiping his tears. “I know. My great-grandpa is my role model. I admire him the most. And I hate to see him suffer like this. But at the same time, I can’t let go of him. I still want to be with him for a longer time.”

“What should I do, Blue? What should I do? I don’t want to lose Gramps. I’m not yet ready to say goodbye to him.”

Blue nuzzled his nose at the boy’s cheeks. He was licking his tears, wiping them away. “Is that what you want Master? The desire of your heart?”

“Yes, Blue… Do you know how can I save our great-grandpa? Tell me what to do…” Little Christian asked him expectantly.

The blue tiger glanced at Grandpa Lu. He was silent for several seconds before he moved his gaze back to Little Christian.

“I can fulfill your request, Master. Both of us can save him… but we need to make some sacrifices…”

Christian gave Blue a questioning gaze. “What kind of sacrifices? Of course, I will do anything just to save him.”

Blue looked straight into his eyes. “Just like what your Grandpa Zu Wan did to save your father, Tristan. Master, you have to give up your power. We will transfer our magical power to your Grandpa Lu. This will serve as his life force. Through this, he could live longer with us. But you can no longer use your power. You can no longer control fire or summon your blue fire. Your life span will also be reduced. You will become an ordinary human.”

“Are you okay with that, Master?” Blue consulted him first.

Christian didn’t think twice as he nodded his head. He was willing to give up his power just to prolong his great grandpa’s life.

“Okay, Master. I will fulfill your wish. If this the only way to make you happy and.”

“But how about you, Blue? What will happen to you? Will you disappear?” Little Christian suddenly got worried about Blue.

Blue shook his head, reassuring Christian. “I will not disappear, Master. I will stay by your side as your pet. But I will lose some of my magical powers as well. But don’t worry, Master. Even without my magical power, I will always stay by your side, protecting you!”

Christian felt so grateful to Blue. He gently patted his head and thanked him.

“Let’s save Great Grandpa,” Christian said.

“Master, Will you not tell this to your mother and father? Don’t you want to ask them first?”

Christian shook his head. “No, Blue. This is my decision. I want to do this. My grandpa Zu sacrificed his power for my father. Because of this, Mom could stay longer with Dad as he gained supernatural power. I can’t let my Mom and Dad sacrifice their lifespan. I am willing to do this for my great-grandpa. Even if I have to die at an early age, I don’t mind.”

“Don’t talk like that, Master. I will not let you die at an early age!” Blue said with so much conviction.

This time, Christian finally let out a chuckle. He felt at ease now, knowing that he could do something to save Grandpa Lu.

“Blue, come… let’s do it now. Cassie is just outside. I don’t want her to get involved. I want to make this sacrifice alone.”

“Okay, Master. I will always support you on this.”
