Seeing Qin Kaize frowning and about to argue, Su Yijia quickly interrupted him.
"By the way, we've brought my grandparents back, but what about your grandparents?"
"They won't be coming back anytime soon. My uncle went abroad, so their investigation will take even longer and be more thorough. It will be at least another year or two before they return," Qin Kaize's face grew even more somber.
Although he had arranged for someone to look after his grandparents, their advanced age and the recent losses on the farm had worsened their health and mood.
"Once the situation loosens up a bit, we can go visit them," Su Yijia said, holding Qin Kaize's hand and smiling.
It made sense why in the book Qin Kaize was so ill and his family didn't return to care for him. Everyone was intertwined with their own issues, making it impossible to be by his side, ultimately leading to the book's ending.
