Chapter 589: Chapter 247: Don’t Try to Scare Me with the Tang Family’s Connections—At Worst, We’ll Go Down Together (Part 4)
Tang Chenghu: "As the head of the family, if I only care about my daughter’s happiness and ignore the family’s honor, do I still deserve to be the Patriarch? Yang Chen, apologize to Ah Bao now and compensate him with a sum of money, let’s say one hundred million. As long as you accept my terms, I will immediately agree to you being with Xiaxia, and you can get married whenever you want. If you don’t agree, then I won’t be polite with you."
Tang Xia, furious, stood up and complained: "Dad, what are you doing? This isn’t Ah Chen’s fault. Why should he apologize to Uncle and pay money? You have to be reasonable. If you insist on doing this, then I won’t come back again!"
The others quickly tried to smooth things over and ease the father-daughter tension, but it was no use. Tang Chenghu still insisted on forcing Yang Chen to apologize and compensate.
Yang Chen couldn’t figure out what Tang Chenghu was planning, but since the conversation had reached this point, Yang Chen definitely couldn’t stay any longer, as that would make him look spineless.
Yang Chen stood up with a smile and said, "I won’t apologize, and I won’t compensate. However, my relationship with Xiaxia is here, and I hope we won’t reach a dead-end. The most important point is, don’t think that just because the Tang Family has connections, you can bully me. If you remember this, I believe we won’t reach a dead-end. As for minor conflicts, I can handle them and they won’t affect my relationship with Xiaxia. Everyone, that’s all for today; I’ll take my leave."
After speaking, Yang Chen hugged Tang Xia and said, "I’m leaving now. Since you hardly get to come back, spend some time with your family."
Tang Xia cried angrily and said, "Ah Chen, don’t listen to my dad. He can’t affect our relationship."
Yang Chen: "I know. Didn’t I just say, as long as we don’t reach a dead-end, our relationship won’t be affected. Don’t cry, you need to grow up. There are some things you weren’t allowed to deal with or consider before, but now you have to think about and handle them."
Tang Xia: "Huh? What do you mean?"
Yang Chen: "Think for yourself. When you figure it out, you’ll understand why today’s situation turned out this way. I’m leaving now. Oh, by the way, your grandfather might have some health issues, so it’s best to take him to a hospital for a check-up."
Having said this, Yang Chen clasped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Tang Hengyu and left.
Tang Xia hurriedly ran to see him off.
Just then, a guard ran over and shouted, "Old Master, Divine Doctor Xue has arrived!"
Yang Chen instantly stopped in his tracks.
Tang Xia: "What’s wrong?"
Yang Chen: "Is Divine Doctor Xue here to treat your grandfather?"
Tang Xia: "Probably."
Yang Chen nodded, hesitating to speak.
The two walked to the gate and saw an old man with a goatee accompanied by a male and a female assistant chatting; that little old man should be Divine Doctor Xue.
Yang Chen hesitated for a moment and then whispered to Tang Xia, "Xiaxia, remember what I say: if that old man intends to use a needle to prick your grandfather’s Renzhong Acupoint, stop him. The Renzhong Acupoint must not be pricked. If it is, your grandfather will vomit blood in less than three minutes and his condition will suddenly worsen. If he uses other methods to treat your grandfather, then there’s no need to stop him. Do you remember?"
Tang Xia: "Huh? Is it that serious? Can you tell what illness my grandfather has?"
Yang Chen: "Yes! But your dad has to ask me for help, otherwise I won’t treat him! That old geezer is really crafty; I have to teach him a lesson, or he’ll keep trying to ruin our relationship."
Tang Xia couldn’t help but laugh but soon felt she shouldn’t and ended up with a mixed expression of laughter and tears.
At this moment, Tang Chenghu and the others hurried over.
Yang Chen waved to Tang Xia and quickly got in the car and left.
Tang Chenghu: "Divine Doctor Xue, you finally arrived. Have you eaten? I’ll have someone prepare a meal for the three of you right away."
Divine Doctor Xue: "Hehe... I’ll be in your debt, Mr. Tang."
Tang Chenghu: "Haha... it’s nothing, it’s nothing. Divine Doctor Xue came all the way from Beijing to treat my father; our Tang Family is deeply grateful. Quickly, Divine Doctor Xue, please come in."
Tang Chenghu kept chatting with Divine Doctor Xue, and Tang Xia didn’t want to interrupt, so she quietly followed them back.
The entire Tang Family gathered outside the hall to welcome Divine Doctor Xue, such a grand gesture.
But it’s understandable; after all, they want to ask Divine Doctor Xue to treat the Old Master.
Taking advantage of the time when Divine Doctor Xue and his team were eating, Tang Xia found her dad.
"Dad, just now Ah Chen said that no matter what method Divine Doctor Xue uses to treat grandpa, you mustn’t let him prick grandpa’s Renzhong Acupoint. If pricked, it’ll cause grandpa to vomit blood and his condition will suddenly worsen. Remember, if Divine Doctor Xue intends to prick any acupoints, you must remind him not to prick the Renzhong Acupoint," Tang Xia said in a low voice.
Tang Chenghu laughed upon hearing this and said, "You silly girl, I don’t know what he’s fed you to make you believe in him for medical matters. Sigh... I understand why a grown daughter is hard to keep, but I never expected you to be so foolishly devoted to him. It makes me even more worried – what if he controls everything about you in the future?"
Tang Xia replied very seriously, "Dad, don’t worry so much. Ah Chen respects me a lot. That kind of situation you described won’t happen. I feel like he wouldn’t say it for no reason; just remember to remind Divine Doctor Xue about it."
Tang Chenghu shook his head helplessly and walked away.
His daughter might be enchanted, but he won’t let himself be confused too.
If Yang Chen had such abilities, why didn’t he just say how to treat the Old Master earlier?
This girl is truly in love, and now her IQ seems to be in negative numbers.
