Hua Ying heard her grandfather's voice.
She abruptly released her grip on her elder brother's collar.
She saw her grandfather being supported by his caregivers, standing unsteadily not far away, looking at them with anger in his eyes.
"Grandpa," Hua Ying walked over worriedly and supported him.
Jiang Nuan looked at Song Baoli and said, "Baoli, quickly go and get the old man's wheelchair."
"Okay!" Song Baoli ran into the room with swift steps, pushed out the old man's wheelchair, and carefully helped him to sit in it.
"Thank you!" The old man's breathing was somewhat labored, but his speech was clear.
Jiang Nuan observed the old man's condition and found that he had indeed recovered quite well.
"Yingying, push Grandpa over." The old man had no strength in his body, and even his voice sounded very weak.
"Alright, Grandpa." Hua Ying pushed her grandfather over.
The old man looked at his son and grandson. He closed his eyes in pain.
He had heard everything they had said just now.
He had raised sons for his old age, but he had ended up in such a predicament.
He felt truly miserable!
However, such matters were common, and it was not strange for it to happen to him.
"Dad." Hua Chun looked at him guiltily, his eyes shifting away. His father must have heard what happened earlier. "This... this..."
Hua Chun was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak. He had also believed his son's words, which led to this situation.
"Hua Chun, I don't blame you. People are very selfish. At my age, I've seen all sorts of people," the old man's voice was devoid of emotion.
"Dad, that's not what I meant. I really wanted to save you, but I was afraid that something would go wrong during the surgery and cause you pain as you left this world. I was mainly worried about such a thing happening," Hua Chun defended himself.
"Heh..." The old man let out a cold laugh. "Then I truly must thank you for your concern."
Hua Chun: "..."
The old man had already had his assistant bring a lawyer to his room earlier, and they should have arrived by now.
As he was thinking this, he heard footsteps.
The old man looked at his only granddaughter who cared about him and said, "Yingying, go and bring Assistant Wang and Lawyer Li in."
"Okay, Grandpa." Hua Ying didn't understand what her grandfather intended to do, but she complied.
"Ninth Master, Madam Mu, Doctor Song, I apologize for letting you witness this embarrassing scene." The old man had heard about their identities from his granddaughter.
Jiang Nuan: "Grandpa Hua, I am very sorry...!" Jiang Nuan lowered her gaze slightly.
The old man smiled and said, "The one who should apologize is me, Madam Mu..."
"Grandpa Hua, you can just call me Nuannuan," Jiang Nuan interrupted him with a smile.
The old man then didn't stand on ceremony with her. "Nuannuan, please wait. I will definitely undergo the surgery. I trust you."
He had already been given a death sentence by the doctors. He had been in a coma before, but after taking Jiang Nuan's medicine, he had miraculously been able to stand up.
"Wait a moment, I'll sort things out here, and then I'll go to the hospital with you." The old man's eyes held a yearning to live.
This made Jiang Nuan nod slightly.
Mu Jiuchen frowned and, in the end, said nothing, staying by her side.
Hua Chun had a bad premonition. Why had his grandfather called for a lawyer?
"Old Master." Assistant Wang called out softly, "Lawyer Li is here."
"Mm!" The old man nodded slightly.
Lawyer Li handed the printed documents to the old man. The old man completely trusted these two people. He picked up the pen offered by his assistant and signed the document on the last page, then handed it to Hua Ying.
"Yingying, sign your name at the bottom."
Hua Ying asked with confusion, "Grandpa, what is this document?"
The old man smiled kindly. "Sign it first, and after you sign, Grandpa will tell you what it is."
"Oh!" Hua Ying picked up the pen to sign, but Hua Chun stopped her.
He looked at his daughter and said angrily, "Yingying, aren't you going to read the contents of the document before signing?"
Hua Ying retorted angrily, "Grandpa would never hurt me. Only you and big brother would hurt me."
Without hesitation, Hua Ying quickly signed her name on the document.
The old man then said, "Lawyer Li, Yingying has signed. From now on, Hua Yin Enterprise belongs to Yingying. All my shares have been given to her."
Hua Chun: "..."
Hua Yulong: "!!"
"Grandpa, you can't do this. I am the heir to the Hua family."
Hua Yulong looked at his sister with malice. "Hua Ying will be married in the future. Does Grandpa want to watch her take our Hua family's assets to her future husband's home?"
The old man glared at him. "Hua Yulong, I and Doctor Song heard your phone call last night. I spent all night contemplating, and I've made this decision. From now on, Yingying will take care of me, and I will have no relation to you all. Even if I die on the operating table, it will have nothing to do with you. This is a deed of severance. I have already signed it."
The old man threw another document in front of Hua Chun.
"Dad, I will not sign it," Hua Chun looked at his father coldly, not expecting him to go to such lengths.
He had actually given all his assets to Hua Ying.
"Whether you sign or not is irrelevant. Yingying has the right of bequest, while you have nothing?"
The old man looked at the villa he had lived in for many years and said, "I'll leave this to the three of you."
The old man looked at Jiang Nuan and said, "Nuannuan, now they have no right to interfere in my affairs. My matters will be decided by Yingying. She will sign for the surgery. Whether I can come down from the operating table or not, you won't be blamed. With Lawyer Li here, I will sign a letter of responsibility. Regardless of whether the surgery is successful or not, no one will trouble you."
Jiang Nuan looked at the old man before her. His eyes were clouded, but very firm. The will to live made Jiang Nuan compromise.
"Alright!" Jiang Nuan nodded.
Hua Ying looked at her grandfather in surprise.
"Grandpa..."
"Go and get your identification. From now on, we will have no relation to this home," the old man said with a smile.
Hua Ying: "..."
Her grandfather making such a decision truly showed how disappointed he was in her father and elder brother.
Hua Ying got her identification and then pushed her grandfather out of the house.
Watching the group leave, Hua Yulong became anxious. "Dad, are you just going to let them leave like this?"
What about his debts then?
That wasn't just a few million!
It was a full ten million!
How could he possibly repay it?
Hua Chun angrily said, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's much better to have it in your sister's hands than in Grandpa's. We can get it back anytime. Your sister is soft-hearted; a few threats and she'll obediently hand over the shares. Tell me now, how much debt have you actually incurred?"
Hua Chun slowly held up his index finger, his head lowered, not daring to look at his father.
Hua Chun: "One million?"
Fortunately, he could still repay that.
But he saw his son shaking his head, and Hua Chun's heart sank instantly.
"One hundred thousand?" he asked again. One hundred thousand would be much easier.
Hua Yulong: "..." Why guess lower instead of higher?
"Dad, it's ten million. You have to help me," Hua Yulong said excitedly. "If you don't help me, they're going to chop off one of my hands."
Hua Chun's eyes suddenly widened, the world went black, and he fainted.
