Perhaps, Chuan Qi should ask his father-in-law about his desires; is he willing to cling to life, just as he has?
Throughout the morning, Lord Ye had not found an opportunity to have a private conversation with his father-in-law. But at 3 p.m., when Ye Xingguang accompanied her mother to another hospital building to collect some images, he quickly locked the door to the hospital room. Then, he sat in front of the hospital bed, looking at his weakened father-in-law who was under Death's scrutiny.
Conveniently, Song Chuanqi also wanted an opportunity to talk to Lord Ye alone, to entrust his daughter to him.
Before he could speak, however, he heard Lord Ye cautiously saying, "Dad, if I could save you, but the cost is another form of torment, would you still wish to live?"
Song Chuanqi didn't understand what Lord Ye meant by saying this.
Weakly, he asked, "What cost?"
Lord Ye didn't speak for a long time. This wasn't a pleasant memory to recount.
