Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Third Uncle Zhuang and Zhuang Che looked left and right but could not tell what present he had brought. “Where is it? You can’t say that it’s you, right?”
“It is me.” Zhuang Liu moved his fingers, and Xiao Mo immediately removed the blanket from his legs. Then, he obediently retreated to the side.
“Grandpa, this is the birthday present I want to give you.” With that, he stood up from his wheelchair and walked towards Old Master Zhuang under everyone’s shocked gazes. His steps were very steady, and it did not look like he had been injured at all.
“You… You can stand up now?” Old Master Zhuang was shocked and excited. He was so happy that he could not speak properly.
Zhuang Liu approached him and turned around to show that he had really recovered. “Grandpa, my legs have completely recovered.”
Old Master Zhuang felt a lump in his throat. “It’s good that you can stand up. The gift you gave me today is the best gift 1 have ever received.”
Zhuang Liu was his most beloved grandson. After Zhuang Liu was poisoned, he blamed himself for not protecting his grandson well. When he couldn’t sleep at night, he wondered why he wasn’t the one poisoned.
Now that Zhuang Liu could stand up, he could finally sleep well.
“Why are you standing?” Zhuang Che looked at Zhuang Liu in disbelief. He had heard Zhuang Liu say that he did not have much time left. How long had it been? How could Zhuang Liu stand up healthily?
Zhuang Liu said with a smile that was not a smile, “From what I’m hearing, you don’t seem happy that 1 can stand now.”
Shen Jing continued, “You and your father are really interesting. When 1 said that my husband was about to wake up, Third Brother immediately said that it was impossible. Now that my son can stand up, you are saying that it’s impossible too. Those who don’t know would think that you and your son are up to something.”
Third Uncle Zhuang and his son instantly broke out in cold sweat. If the old man knew that they were the ones who poisoned that family, then the old man would definitely send them to prison.
Zhuang Che stammered, “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that I was sad when 1 heard Xiao Liu say he was about to die. But now, Xiao Liu, you’ve recovered. This means that you don’t even treat us as a family. You didn’t even tell us that you’ve recovered!”
“Big Cousin, you should have heard of an old saying, right? It’s always difficult to guard against thieves when they leave with you. I haven’t caught the person who poisoned me back then, so 1 don’t dare to expose myself in advance, lest that thief finds out and poisons me again.” As Zhuang Liu spoke, his eyes were fixed on Zhuang Che. Zhuang Che did not dare to look back at him.
After all, Third Uncle Zhuang was older and was more experienced. After hearing Zhuang Liu’s words, he said, “Xiao Liu is right. The person who poisoned us hasn’t been found. We have to be more careful.”
He pulled Zhuang Che back to his side and signaled his son not to speak now.
Zhuang Liu turned to look at Old Master Zhuang. “Grandpa, do you think I did the right thing?”
Old Master Zhuang agreed. “You’ve done a good job. The murderer hasn’t been caught yet. You should be more cautious. However, he was still a little curious. Xiao Liu, when did your leg recover?”
Zhuang Liu looked at Zhuang Che and smiled. “I’ve almost recovered when I came back to the Capital.”
Zhuang Che was about to die from anger. The last time he saw Zhuang Liu, Zhuang Liu looked lifeless. However, his legs had almost recovered by then. That meant that Zhuang Liu had been lying to him.
Old Master Zhuang nodded in satisfaction. Then, he said regretfully, “It would be great if your father could wake up earlier. Your mother just said that he showed signs of waking up. She said that he would wake up within this year. Is that true?”
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Shen Jing, but he had been disappointed for too long. If he didn’t see it with his own eyes, he would never believe it completely.
Zhuang Liu replied, “Dad is indeed about to wake up. The doctor who treated my leg is treating Dad now. We will see the results soon.”
“Really?” Old Master Zhuang was even happier. “Xiao Liu, when your father wakes up, you should thank the doctor properly!”
When his eldest son woke up, Old Master Zhuang was no longer worried. Now, he was most afraid that his eldest son and third grandson would die before him. But now that his grandson had recovered and his son was about to recover, he had nothing to be afraid of.
“Grandpa, I’ll definitely thank the divine doctor..”
