"dad."
"grandfather."
Wen Wanqing and Lu Huai'an were about to say something when Lu Zhentian silenced them with a single glance.
They all looked at Su Wantang with concern.
Su Wantang pouted playfully, "It's barely acceptable."
"Grandpa, although I have my own selfish reasons—I disapprove of my uncle and aunt's behavior—what angers me even more is that they made you faint, almost..."
Lu Zhentian shook his head at Su Wantang and snorted, "You have such a bad temper!"
The tone was accusatory, but it sounded full of doting affection.
"Come with me to the study, write a self-criticism, and reflect on your actions!"
Ignoring the probing gazes of Wen Wanqing and Lu Huai'an, Lu Zhentian pulled Su Wantang into the study.
"Wantang, tell your grandfather the truth, is your grandfather not far from becoming mentally impaired?"
Lu Zhentian stood with his back to Su Wantang, his hands behind his back, his deep gaze fixed on the window.
The calm tone of his voice as he read the facts conveyed no fear, only reluctance.
As the sealed memories opened, she seemed to see the old man's face gradually becoming clearer, calmly saying to her, "Tangtang, Grandpa is leaving."
"May our Tangtang always be happy."
......
Su Wantang couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.
"Grandpa, what nonsense are you talking about? You're perfectly healthy, how could you possibly be mentally challenged?"
Hearing Su Wantang's sob, Lu Zhentian turned around and said with a smile.
"Wantang, birth, aging, sickness and death are normal occurrences, there's nothing to be sad about. Besides, Grandpa has lived a life without feeling resentful."
“Grandpa, here…” Lu Zhentian pointed to his head, “There’s something here. The doctor said that if it gets any more irritated, it will compress the nerves and make him stupid in a month at the earliest, and six months at the latest.”
What was in Lu Zhentian's mind was none other than shrapnel from the battlefield that had entered his brain and, decades later, had slowly moved and pressed against his nerve endings.
As soon as the abnormality was detected, Lu Zhentian kicked out the troublesome Lu Yuanzhou and Lu Ya, thinking that he should calm down and wait a couple more years until Lu Yuanyang and Lu Huai'an could support the Lu family.
Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes.
It was by practicing that set of boxing techniques with Su Wantang that Lu Zhentian felt his body had improved, which led to a momentary illusion and caused him to become extremely angry.
"Grandpa, don't you believe me?" Su Wantang said sternly.
"I believe you!" Lu Huai'an said, his hands behind his back, his expression very serious.
The next second, he chuckled and said, "Wantang, just tell Grandpa the truth so that Grandpa can be mentally prepared. Otherwise, Grandpa won't be able to sleep well tonight."
Knowing that Lu Zhentian was saying this on purpose, Su Wantang still couldn't bear to refuse him when she saw his loving eyes.
"Two years."
Two years? That's enough.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely cure you."
Lu Zhentian didn't have much hope for these words.
The doctor did mention a method to him.
That means performing brain surgery.
However, with current domestic methods, it is simply impossible to achieve this.
Abroad, let alone someone of Lu Zhentian's status, he simply couldn't leave the country. Even if he did go abroad, the success rate of this kind of surgery was only 10%, meaning there was a 90% chance that Lu Zhentian would die on the operating table.
"Really? Then Grandpa will be waiting for you."
Lu Zhentian sighed inwardly.
If only Old Su were still here.
Seeing Lu Zhentian's distrust, Su Wantang didn't say anything. Although she did have a solution, she lacked the ability to implement it.
“Grandpa, I will give you acupuncture every few days to ensure that the foreign object will not press on your nerves any further.”
"good."
"Grandpa, if there's nothing else, I'll head out now."
"Okay. Don't tell Huai'an and the others."
Su Wantang paused, seemingly knowing she was puzzled. Lu Zhentian said cheerfully, "Grandpa doesn't like nagging. It annoys him as soon as he hears it."
"Wantang, you can't just watch your grandfather listen to his endless complaints with a bitter expression."
Su Wantang laughed.
She had a vague feeling that this wasn't Lu Zhentian's true thought.
"Okay! But Grandpa has to promise me you won't get angry or worry too much! Otherwise, my mouth will start to leak!"
"Okay, Grandpa promises you."
As soon as Su Wantang came out, Lu Huai'an and Wen Wanqing, who were sitting in the living room, stood up abruptly and strode over.
"Tangtang, how is Grandpa?"
"Wantang, how is your grandfather?"
The two spoke one after the other.
"Mom, Huai'an, Grandpa's health is an old problem, with many old injuries. It's nothing serious. I'll go to the pharmacy tomorrow to buy some medicinal herbs and make medicinal food for Grandpa. I believe it won't be long before Grandpa gets better."
Wen Wanqing didn't doubt it, but asked in surprise, "Wantang, you can make medicinal cuisine?"
"I know some."
Wen Wanqing's eyes lit up: "Are there any beauty and skincare recipes?"
"Yes. Mom, when I make medicinal food for Grandpa later, I'll make some for you too."
“No need. You teach your dad, let him cook. As a son and husband, he should do his part.” Wen Wanqing grinned.
"good."
The two left after talking.
Knowing the inside story, Lu Huai'an was not as easily convinced by Su Wantang's words as Wen Wanqing. He frowned, knocked on the study door, and went in.
Seemingly having anticipated his arrival, Lu Zhentian sneered, "Why don't you believe your wife?"
But deep down, I felt proud.
Everyone says he's biased. With such a capable grandson who always cares about him, and that group of brats who only care about his power, how could he not be crooked?
"Grandpa, tell me the truth, what exactly is wrong with you?"
