Su Ya replied, "Things are valued for their rarity."
Meanwhile, inside a luxury mansion in China.
Then they heard a frail, gray-haired old man leaning against the bed, berating his grandson. "Back then you thought 3 million was too expensive, but now look, that medicine worked for someone, it's worth 10 million on the black market. Most importantly, everyone's saying that old man is now full of energy, went to the hospital for a full checkup, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with him. If only I had taken a picture of the medicine back then, I wouldn't be lying here half-dead, getting in your way."
The old man was very weak; he had to gasp for breath after saying just a few words.
"Grandpa, it's my fault. I shouldn't have stopped you. I didn't expect the medicine to actually work." Hearing his grandfather's reproach, the middle-aged man could only bow his head and apologize. The old man was over 90 years old, and the doctor had said he couldn't get agitated or angry. This time, he had indeed made a mistake.
"Tang Xingxian, look at the good son you raised. If Lijiao were still here, that would be wonderful."
The old man looked at his 65-year-old son, and he was furious.
My son is so smart, how come my child is so stupid?
His own little granddaughter was the most considerate. She was clever and quick-witted from a young age. It's a pity that she became a vegetable, confined to her hospital bed for many years. Because of this, his son severed ties with the Su family and even joined forces with others to drive the Su family out of the four major wealthy families in Kyoto. This has created a great feud.
I haven't seen my beloved granddaughter for over ten years. It's all because of my stubborn son. I don't know if I'll ever see her again in my lifetime.
However, Old Master Tang was keeping something from Tang Taigong. His daughter, Tang Taijiao, had been informed by the Su family that she had woken up.
However, Old Tang couldn't bring himself to do it, since he was the one who had gone to such extremes back then.
However, seeing her father's health deteriorating and the possibility of him passing away at any time, she would probably feel regretful until her death if she couldn't see her granddaughter.
So, after much deliberation, Old Tang said, "Dad, there's something I want to tell you, but you must promise that you won't get excited after hearing it. You absolutely mustn't."
Tang Wenhao is very smart; otherwise, how could he manage such a large fortune in the Tang family? But sometimes he doesn't see things clearly. When he heard his father say this, he knew that his father was going to tell his grandfather that his sister had woken up.
"I'm not angry, go ahead," the old man said. He was exhausted from talking so much and was resting with his eyes closed.
"Dad, we received news from the Su family a few days ago that Lijiao has woken up."
"She's awake," the old man repeated.
Yes, that's right.
The old man hadn't quite grasped what was happening yet when he said, "You said Lijiao woke up."
After saying that, he coughed.
"Dad, I told you not to get excited. I was just afraid you would get excited, so I didn't dare to tell you."
"Then why are you saying it now?"
"I'm not afraid of you."
"You're afraid I'll die and you'll take this regret to the afterlife, aren't you?"
Old Tang remained silent.
The old man took a deep breath before speaking.
"You unfilial son! My granddaughter has woken up, such a big thing, and you didn't even tell me. Don't you even care about an old man like me?"
"Dad, I was just worried you'd get too emotional and wouldn't be able to handle this news."
"This is great news, why can't I accept it?"
What are you going to do?
Old Tang looked rather troubled, as if he were in a difficult position.
"I."
"What do you mean, 'you'? You were so heartless back then, and now you regret it? Why didn't you do it earlier?"
"dad."
"Don't call me Dad. I don't have a son like you who doesn't care about family ties."
The old man wouldn't give it to Old Tang. He turned his head away, not even glancing at him.
Old Tang knew that the old man was in a bad mood and it wasn't the right time to talk.
So he turned and left the room.
After seeing his father leave, Tang Wenwu said goodbye to his grandfather and then left as well.
And when they left and closed the door...
Then I saw the old man pull his phone out from under his pillow.
I dialed the number I had memorized countless times.
Each of those numbers felt as heavy as a thousand pieces of gold.
In the end, the old man still entered all the phone numbers.
He needed to calm himself down.
The doctor said he couldn't get agitated or angry. So he needed to calm himself down.
Try not to get excited.
Now her granddaughter woke up.
The old man only has four words on his mind right now: "Live well."
Then I waited for about thirty minutes.
The old man then dialed that phone number.
The phone rang once and was answered.
The person who answered the phone was a young girl.
Her voice was clear and crisp.
"Who are you looking for?" she asked politely.
"I'd like to look for Tang Lijiao."
The old man said.
Su Ya knew that anyone who could still remember her mother's phone number after all these years must be someone close to her.
"Hold on."
Then I heard the girl on the other end of the phone shout, "Mom, you're on the phone."
The old man then realized that the girl with the clear, crisp voice who had answered the phone was his great-granddaughter.
The phone was quickly taken by another person.
Hello, who are you?
"Lijiao, it's me, Grandpa."
The old man choked up when he heard his granddaughter's voice.
Tang Lijiao was so excited when she heard her grandfather's voice that she didn't know what to say next.
After waiting for a long time, it finally called out once.
"grandfather."
"Why."
"Lijiao, I'm sorry, I haven't visited you in all these years, and I only just found out that you've woken up."
Meanwhile, Su's mother on the other end of the phone was already sobbing uncontrollably. "Grandpa, I don't blame you. How have you been all these years?"
"well."
"Where is my grandma?"
"Your grandmother passed away not long after you became a vegetable. She couldn't bear the shock and left me, this old codger."
"I'm sorry, Grandpa. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. Not only have I failed to fulfill my filial duties to you two, but I've also burdened you."
"My dear grandson, it's not your fault. Some things are just unpredictable."
"And what about my mom?"
"Your mother, because of your father, couldn't stand it anymore, got divorced, and went abroad. She hasn't contacted us since."
"Grandpa, I'll come see you in a while. But, I need to think about my dad."
"Alright, alright, Grandpa's waiting for you at home. Your dad... he's all bark and no bite. Don't mind him, he's already regretted it."
Su's mother knew that her father truly loved her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have blamed the Su family and Su Qinghai after her accident.
He's just a bit extreme in his actions.
"Grandpa, I have good news for you. Your great-granddaughter has been found. She's the girl who answered your call earlier."
"Ya Ya, she's been found. This child must have suffered a lot all these years."
