Chapter 648: Chapter 640: He Wants to Acknowledge His Daughter Chapter 648: Chapter 640: He Wants to Acknowledge His Daughter Zhang Xiangcao was startled by his shouting, but when she caught sight of the old man’s pale face and the faint smell in the air, she knew.
Her mother, too, had been the same when she lay in bed, unable to move.
She set down her broom and walked over— the old man might not have made it in time.
Such an old age, truly pitiable.
Now with no one by his side, the nurse had gone to the city to shop this morning, just when everyone else was also out.
Originally, she thought nothing would happen to the old man in such a short time.
Yet, indeed, something had happened.
...
“I told you not to come over, can’t you understand human speech?”
The old man’s face was now red and his neck swollen with anger and embarrassment.
Nevertheless, Zhang Xiangcao made her way through the old man’s irritable temper and pushed the wheelchair.
The old man was so angry he almost rolled out of the wheelchair.
If it were a man, he would have lashed out long ago, but the problem was she was a woman, and men should not strike women, no matter the age; that was the rule.
If it were his son, he would have slapped him by now.
Zhang Xiangcao wheeled the old man into the room, then moved to help him up.
“I won’t.”
The old leader was stubborn and had a tough temper, flatly refusing to get up, because getting up would mean emitting a foul smell.
“If my dad were here, you would be older than him.”
Zhang Xiangcao still insisted on helping him up, “Yuxin once said that you need to keep a good mood.
How can this be a good mood?”
What good mood!
The old man almost swore out loud, feeling utterly uncomfortable.
He was so angry his liver ached, and soon he would need the girl to give him a few more injections.
Reluctantly, the old man finally stood up, but when Zhang Xiangcao wanted to remove his trousers, he clung to them desperately.

“Men and women should not touch each other.”
“What did you say, you want to recognize a daughter?”
Mr.
Wang stood in front of the old man, his eyes nearly bulging out in shock.
“Dad, you called me here urgently; it’s not just because you want to recognize a goddaughter, is it?”
“What do you think?”
The old man glanced at his son with the whites of his eyes.
His temper wasn’t as bad when he was sick because he lacked the energy, but now that he felt better and could walk slowly, his temper seemed to have worsen.
“But how can you just casually recognize a daughter?” Mr.
Wang was truly shocked, feeling that his old man was taking the matter too lightly.
Recognition of a goddaughter was no trivial issue.
If their family really recognized a goddaughter, it would be no different than having one of their own.
In the past, that would have meant the rank of a Commandery Princess, an exalted status.
As for a goddaughter of the Wang Family, given their disposition, she could share in the family inheritance.
Of course, he wasn’t worried about the inheritance; they weren’t lacking.
He feared some people might have ulterior motives, exploiting the old man.
“You think I’m senile?”
Still eyeing his son sideways, the old man’s gaze seemed to provoke irritation, making Mr.
Wang want to throw a punch, something he wouldn’t dare do to his old father.
Mr.
Wang touched his nose; despite being in his forties, he was scolded like a scoundrel by his own father.
“Hmph!” The old man walked carefully forward with his cane, while Mr.
Wang cautiously followed, ready to catch him in case he stumbled.
With his advanced age and a severe illness that almost claimed his life, a fall could prove fatal.
The old man walked a few steps, then stopped suddenly, almost causing Mr.
Wang to bump into him.
