Just as he had suspected, his son had no authority at home and was completely dominated by his daughter-in-law. 

Sigh…… it was no wonder. If he couldn’t do that, how could he show off his power in front of his wife? 

“Take a leave tomorrow morning and go to the hospital with me.” 

Gu Ye immediately became nervous and looked up and down at the old man, “Which part of your body has a problem?” 

“Just go to the hospital and you will know. Wait for me at the entrance of the first hospital tomorrow morning at 08:30.” 

Old Mr. Gu spoke vaguely, not wanting to hurt his son’s pride. 

After all, it was a sensitive issue. Putting himself in his son’s shoes, even at his age, he wouldn’t want to hear people say that he couldn’t do it, let alone his youngest son who was only 27 years old. 

Even if his youngest son really couldn’t do it, he wouldn’t be able to say it as a father.  

Children have grown up, and care about their dignity. 

Gu Ye felt even more nervous inside, but he still spoke in a casual, nonchalant tone, half-jokingly asking, “Does your wife know?”

If his mother didn’t know, then it meant that the old man’s illness was very serious, serious enough that he was even keeping it from her. 

After all, his mother couldn’t handle any kind of bad news, so keeping it from her would probably be for the best.

Besides, Old Mr. Gu actually had a designated hospital, which was Second Hospital. 

All the elderly in the compound went there for treatment, and the state covered the medical expenses. 

But instead, Old Mr. Gu insisted on going to First Hospital for treatment. Obviously, he didn’t want anyone to know about his condition.

“She doesn’t know, why are you asking so many questions? 08:30, tomorrow morning, don’t be late!”  

Old Mr. Gu was getting impatient. 

How could he let Lin Yulan know about this kind of problem? It was too embarrassing. 

He had already looked into it. First Hospital had a specialist who was quite capable of treating this kind of illness. 

Old Zhang’s son-in-law also had the same issue, and it was that specialist who cured him. 

Now, he was full of vigor again, and Old Zhang’s daughter was over the moon.

“Got it, 08:30.” 

Gu Ye didn’t ask any more questions, but he felt uneasy and very uncomfortable. 

It was obvious that the old man had a serious illness, it was also unknown if he could be cured…… 

Gu Ye’s gaze fell on his old man’s temples, and the increasing strands of white hair on his forehead. 

The wrinkles on his face had deepened, and the once-straight, strong back was now slightly hunched. A wave of sourness welled up in Gu Ye’s heart.

At some point, this grumpy, strict old man, who loved to curse and hit people, had really grown old. 

This old man who even rarely caught a cold in his entire life, but got seriously ill. Time was truly the most ruthless enemy. 

Gu Ye turned his head away, not wanting the old man to see the emotions in his eyes, which was too embarrassing.

Old Mr. Gu patted his son’s shoulder heavily and comforted him, “Don’t overthink it. If there’s an illness, then we can just treat it, we’re not afraid!” 

He assumed his son was feeling down because of his ‘hidden illness’, which made him feel very sad in his heart. 

His poor boy… God was really blind ah! 

Gu Ye took a deep breath, forcing back the sting in his eyes, then exaggeratedly grinned. 

“What’s there to be afraid of? I just earned tens of thousands yuan recently, so I have money. If there’s an illness, we can just treat it. No need to be afraid!”

“Well done, that’s my boy!”

Old Mr. Gu felt even more relieved and patted Gu Ye’s shoulder a few more times. 

This was how his son, Gu Huainian’s son, would face the problems head-on. 

Even if your head got hurt, the worst you would get was a big scar. As long as you’re alive, there’s nothing to be afraid of. 

The father and son were completely on different wavelengths, yet both were moved by each other. 

Gu Ye looked awkwardly at the hand on his shoulder, as if he hadn’t been so intimate with his old man in a long time. 

This…… was quite awkward. 

His old man was already sick, so Gu Ye decided to just let him be. 

If this old man wanted to pat his shoulder, then just let him be. As long as he is happy.
