Free Web NovelChapter 592: Chapter 248: Tang Chenghu Must Beg Me Before I Save the Old Master (Part 3)
Yang Chen: "Didn’t I tell you to remind Divine Doctor Xue not to pierce the Renzhong Acupoint?"
Tang Xia: "I reminded him, I said it until my mouth was dry, but no one believed me."
Yang Chen: "Ah... it’s all fate. Have your father come to me within three days, after that, don’t come, even if I go, it won’t be of any use. I’ve given you the opportunity, whether you grasp it depends on your own thoughts. And don’t think that I don’t love you or anything, if I didn’t love you, I wouldn’t even give you a chance."
Tang Xia: "I got it. Can I have my father take the phone and you speak to him, is that okay?"
Yang Chen: "I won’t say. You discuss it yourselves. Remember, starting from the moment your grandfather vomited blood, within three days, which means within 72 hours. After this time, don’t look for me, I’m powerless and don’t let it affect our relationship. I’m hanging up, I’m leaving work to go home."
Tang Xia: "Okay, I got it."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Xia quickly told his father what Yang Chen said: "Dad, Yang Chen said you have to beg him, only then will he come to treat grandpa. He also said a maximum of three days, from the moment grandpa vomited blood, find him within 72 hours to be saved, beyond this time, finding him is useless. Dad, he’s just angry that you threatened him and chased him away, just say a few nice words. Grandpa’s health is the most important."
Previously, no one believed that Yang Chen could treat illnesses, but now that he’s correctly guessed the old man’s symptoms of vomiting blood, the Tang family somewhat believes he really can treat illnesses.
"Brother, why don’t you just give it a try."
"Right! Dad’s health is most important, trying doesn’t cost anything, if you don’t try, there’s no hope."
"Uncle, just give it a try."
"Uncle, go give it a try. If you’re upset, you can settle the scores with him after he treats grandpa, focus on grandpa’s health now."
...
Tang Chenghu gritted his teeth and said nothing.
He wasn’t struggling with a matter of pride, but whether or not to save the old man.
If the old man suddenly died now, Tang family would be under him, he could rightfully let Tang Xia take over, and anyone dissatisfied could be kicked out of Tang family, and left to fend for themselves.
Moreover, the old man previously chose to have Yang Chen come to the house, actually deep down he had already decided to let Tang Xia marry soon, allowing Tang Chunlai to take over the position of Patriarch.
Tang Chenghu is also very shrewd, especially having been with the old man for fifty years, he naturally knows the meaning behind the old man’s words and actions.
Since the old man has the idea of allowing Tang Chunlai to take over as Patriarch, why should he still be saved?
He doesn’t favor Tang Xia, so why save him?
But after much hesitation, Tang Chenghu still couldn’t bear to watch his father wait for death, after all, it’s his own father.
At this time, a nurse came out and said: "Excuse me, who is Tang Chenghu? The old man wants to chat with Tang Chenghu alone."
Tang Chenghu hurriedly walked into the ward.
The nurse closed the door, only Tang Hengyu and Tang Chenghu, the father and son, were inside.
Tang Hengyu spoke weakly: "Ah Hu, the two of us have been together for fifty years, I know you can guess my thoughts. I’ve given you a chance, as long as you have another child, maybe a boy, I would definitely favor you. From childhood to adulthood, I’ve always been biased in favor of you, treated you the best, and also strictest, since you gave birth, I’ve treated you as my successor. Heh... my greatest pride in this life is having you as my son, except not providing me with a grandson. Everything you’ve done has made me satisfied. I heard from Xiaxia that Yang Chen wants you to beg him to come save me. This means my life is in your hands, your slight difference can determine my life or death. Actually, dad is very conflicted, I want your lineage to continue Tang family, but I can’t let Xiaxia, a girl, succeed as Patriarch. Even if she recruits a son-in-law, it’s not considered orthodox. It’s fine now, you use the excuse of Yang Chen threatening Tang family, for the sake of Tang family’s honor, not to beg him. If he doesn’t come to save me, I can die. When I die, everything in Tang family naturally will be controlled by the current Patriarch, you’ll be the largest in Tang family, the future of Tang family is decided by you, I won’t have to worry. I love you, love your children, but I also can’t let Tang family fall into the hands of someone with a different surname. I’m conflicted. But, Ah Hu, I hope the decision you make won’t make you regret and in the future have the face to meet Tang family’s ancestors underground. Dad only has this requirement, can you agree?"
When it comes to being old and scheming, Tang Chenghu is absolutely top-notch, but compared to Tang Hengyu, he’s still just learning.
Tang Hengyu knows his life is controlled by Tang Chenghu, he can only use this tactic to maintain his life.
The father knows the son best, Tang Hengyu knows if Tang Chenghu hears this, he’ll surely save him.
No matter what, Tang family can’t fall into the hands of outsiders, even if Xiaxia recruits a son-in-law, that also doesn’t count as orthodox inheritance.
Clearly, there’s a grandson Tang Chunlai, why not choose orthodox inheritance?
Sure enough, Tang Chenghu lay down on the bed and started crying.
His psychological defense line was completely collapsed by a paragraph from the old man.
Thinking back to his childhood, he was indeed favored by his father, Tang Chenghu doesn’t want to let his father just die.
Tang Hengyu: "Son, don’t cry. Let dad do one last thing for you, go call them all in."
Tang Chenghu: "Dad, what are you going to do?"
Tang Hengyu: "Go call them all in."
