“I say, why are you so annoying?! Give me back my phone! Why are you snatching my phone for? I just got to the exciting part!”
Everyone, “…”
Old Master, can you have some self-awareness as a patient?
“Dad!” Nangong Zhao was speechless. “Your heart…”
“Give it back!”
Before he could finish speaking, Old Master Nangong had nimbly jumped down and snatched the phone from his third son’s hands.
His movement shocked everyone.
“Dad (Old General), your leg…”
Was Old Master Nangong not supposed to be hospitalized for a heart attack?
Was anyone able to explain the fact that not only was the Old General totally fine, but he could now stand so agilely in the winter? He had always been locked to his wheelchair whenever winter was here. Why was he suddenly standing up?
Old Master Nangong chuckled and said smugly, “What do you think? Are you surprised that my legs are still working? Let me tell you, not only can I stand, I can even run! Do you want me to try running?”
The hospital director, “…”
The specialists, “…”
“Dad, forget it. You’re still a patient. What happened to your legs? Is your heart really alright? I was informed that you fainted in the phone call just now, no?”
Nangong Shu was pleasantly surprised.
“It’s a long story. Am I not due for a full body checkup? Let’s go, I want to see how good my granddaughter’s acupuncture is too!”
“Granddaughter?” Nangong Shu and Nangong Zhao raised their eyebrows.
“I just took in a granddaughter today. She’s the granddaughter-in-law of the Chi family. Say, hurry up and make the arrangements. Next week, I’m going to hold a family banquet to announce her joining our family! Let’s do it at your Second Brother’s house. Second Brother’s house is big and spacious. I’m going to invite everyone I know in Emperor District so that everyone can get to know my granddaughter. I don’t want the little girl to be bullied in Emperor District in the future.”
Nangong Renyi walked at the front while Nangong Xiu and Nangong Zhao walked on each side. The director, deputy director, and the specialists followed behind them with bewildered expressions. They had no idea why the old general could suddenly walk.
“Okay, Dad. I got it. Second Brother will be here soon. we’ll just let Second Brother handle this,” Nangong Shu replied.
“What do you mean by that? Did you take my words to heart? I’m acknowledging her as my granddaughter! After acknowledging her as a member of this family, she’ll be treated as our own! How could you just leave this Second Brother?”
Nangong Shu was speechless.
“Then, what do you want us to do?”
“This is such an important matter. We must hold a family meeting first. We’ll split the work and make sure this happens!”
The old master was used to being a government official and made this a political matter straight away.
Nangong Shu and Nangong Zhao were rendered slightly speechless. Yet, the old master was their leader. His words were like an imperial edict.
“Yes, Dad!”
Although he was already a Grand General, Nangong Shu had always respected Nangong Renyi and never refuted him.
“Dad, did you just say that your granddaughter cured your legs?”
“My legs aren’t completely cured. It’s just that if she keeps treating me when she’s free, I can continue walking on these legs. If she doesn’t have time, I can maintain my current state until February or March without a wheelchair. What do you think? My granddaughter is amazing, right? She’s the one who treated me with acupuncture when I had a heart attack. Even Old Hong witnessed it just now. Right, Old Hong?”
Nangong Renyi turned around only to find out that Old Hong had gotten squeezed all the way to the back.
