Grandma was gazing out at the distant sea - level. The brilliant setting sun cast a unique beauty on her face.
"Today, I guess I have no more regrets. When Zhong was around, I never properly showed how much I relied on him. It was only after he left that I realized how regretful I was.
He always made me angry, but after that, he would always find ways to cheer me up. My health was worse than his, yet he left this world before me.
I didn't even get a proper goodbye with him when he left. That's my biggest regret up till now. Your appearance today has fulfilled one of my wishes.
I've truly said a proper goodbye to Zhong."
"Grandma, don't be too sad..."
Grandma looked up and smiled at Zhao Youting. "Let's go back. It's getting late. They'll be worried."
Not knowing what to say, Zhao Youting had no choice but to push Grandma back again.
On the way back, Grandma suddenly said, "It seems you like one of those girls, right? If you do, go after her quickly. Don't wait until it's too late after you've missed the chance."
Just as Zhao Youting was about to explain, when those people saw them coming, they all swarmed around.
Grandma smiled. "Let's go home. I'm a bit tired."
When passing by a roasted - marshmallow shop, Grandma suddenly said to Zhao Youting, "Zhong, buy me a marshmallow. I'll take it home for my little grandson."
Then, Grandma pointed at Qin Qiaoer beside her and said to her, "You go with him too."
Dumbfounded, Zhao Youting and Qin Qiaoer were left at the marshmallow shop. Zhao Youting happened to look up and saw Grandma turning back with a sly smile as she left.
While waiting for the roasted marshmallows, Qin Qiaoer said with deep emotion to Zhao Youting, "Grandma and Grandpa's love is really heart - wrenching."
Zhao Youting was a bit absent - minded. After a while, as if just reacting, he said to Qin Qiaoer, "Let's have a talk tonight."
Qin Qiaoer didn't know what Zhao Youting wanted to say, but she still agreed.
When they got home, they had a sumptuous dinner with the family. As if knowing it was the last dinner with Zhong, Zhao Youting always felt there was a hint of bitterness in Grandma's smile.
When it was time to leave, Zhao Youting couldn't bring himself to say goodbye to Grandma because he thought it would be too sad.
It was Grandma who took the initiative and said to the male host, "Zhong, I'm going to bed. Thank you. Goodbye."
Hearing the words of farewell, everyone felt that time had passed too quickly today.
Zhao Youting bent down and gently hugged Grandma. Then he whispered in her ear, "Goodbye, A Lian."
Grandma said the word "goodbye" with a smile.
But the moment Zhao Youting turned around, tears suddenly welled up in his eyes. He had never lost control like this in front of others, even in front of the cameras today.
Thankfully, the shooting had stopped. After sending Grandma to rest, they were going to pack up and conduct a short interview with the male host of the family. Then today's program would come to an end.
Qin Qiaoer saw Zhao Youting suddenly turn around and raise his arm as if wiping his tears. She strode up to him to see what was wrong.
Sure enough, when she reached him, she saw his red - rimmed eyes, which clearly showed he had been crying.
Qin Qiaoer knew that Zhao Youting had just said goodbye to Grandma and must be feeling very sad. So she gently hugged him and said, "Don't be too sad."
At this moment, Zhao Youting was still immersed in the feeling of parting. For a moment, he thought of himself and Qin Qiaoer. He wondered if they would also experience such a farewell in the future.
He didn't want there to be no memories between them when they faced life - and - death separation. He didn't want to waste every minute and second. Every moment now was a precious treasure that could be recalled in the future.
Just thinking about that possibility made Zhao Youting feel extremely heart - broken, so much so that he couldn't control his emotions.
Qin Qiaoer gently wrapped her arms around Zhao Youting. He seemed to suddenly feel at ease. Then he also raised his arms and tightly hugged Qin Qiaoer in his embrace.
As if only in this way could he confirm whether the person in his arms was really there.
Qin Qiaoer could also feel that Zhao Youting lacked a sense of security from his embrace. She really hoped to give him some strength.
After Zhao Youting adjusted his emotions, the final recording of the program began.
"I won't lie to you. Today might be the time when I've talked the least in these few episodes of the program," Li Yangxin said. "Even now, I still feel very sad. As I'm getting older, I can't bear this kind of thing the most."
Chen Chen beside him echoed, "Yeah. When I saw Zhao Youting saying goodbye to Grandma in the end, I almost couldn't hold back my tears. If it weren't for the need to control my emotions in front of Grandma, sigh."
Then Zhao Youting said, "Spending a day with Grandma today, I really think that everyone should cherish the people around them in the future. You never know what kind of regrets there will be between you.
But only the present moment is real. And don't be afraid. Don't worry about the things you'll face in the future.
Just like a firework. You know it will disappear without a trace after it blooms, but the beauty at the moment of its release is enough for you to remember forever."
After listening to what Zhao Youting said, everyone sighed with emotion.
At the end of the program, the male host suddenly seriously popularized the severity of Alzheimer's disease for everyone.
He said that there were various signs that his mother was on the verge of getting Alzheimer's disease. For example, sometimes she would forget what she had just done after doing something, like adding salt twice when cooking.
Although these were just small things, they should also be a wake - up call for everyone. If the elderly at home show such symptoms, they must go to the hospital for a check - up quickly.
If diagnosed, preventive measures must be taken, such as preventing the elderly from getting lost when going out and dealing with the decline of memory.
