The old man's legs were ruined in the war against Dongyin Country!
Upon learning about this, Su Chen instantly felt a profound respect for the old man.
"So whenever I see those people from Dongyin bullying our people from Huaxia, I get so angry. But as you see, the current trend is here. Even though we are in our own country, on our own land, we allow a bunch of little devils to be so arrogant..." A strong sense of disillusionnt erged on the old man's spirited face.
Tears twinkled in his eyes.
You should know that he was once a super tough guy who carried a gun and fought on battlefields.
Even when he was surrounded by enemies on the blood-soaked battlefield and pulled the pin of a grenade to die together with the enemy, the old man never showed a hint of timidity.
Nor did he shed a single tear.
But seeing the Dongyin people bully Huaxia people who can only suffer in silence, the old man could no longer contain the sadness in his heart.
Sothing called 'martial spirit' has gradually disappeared...
This is the sorrow of society and the old man's helplessness.
"Co, young man, I'm happy today, have a drink with !" The old man wiped the corners of his eyes and said to Su Chen.
"Grandpa, the doctor said you can't drink," the young woman by the old man's side said with a slight frown.
"Xiao Yi, eting this young man today really made happy. Let grandpa have a drink, just one drink!" The old man looked at the woman appealingly.
"Grandpa..."
Tang Yi glanced at Su Chen and then at the old man's hopeful expression, an unbidden sadness welling up in her heart.
"Xiao Yi, actually grandpa knows, you are hiding it from , and the doctors aren't telling the truth either – my body is no longer holding up, even if I don't drink, I won't likely make it past this year..." The expression of a hero in his twilight years spread across the old man's face.
He was once a hot-blooded man whose hands were stained with the blood of thousands of little devils.
A roar from him used to scare the little devils witless.
But now, facing a little devil swaggering on Huaxia soil, he is helpless.
What an imnse sorrow that is.
If it were in the past, just stomping his foot would make Jiangdu tremble.
Even now, in the Jiangdu Military Region, he is considered an Emperor Level figure.
Sadly, his body is deteriorating more and more.
Even the doctors predict that he has at most one year left to live.
Previously, due to the old man's prestige, he could influence many people.
But now that he is dying, those who used to revolve around him are beginning to distance themselves, even ceasing contact with him.
"If it had been a few years earlier, if a little devil dared to jump around in front of , I would have blown him away with one shot!" The old man's forehead veins bulged.
His eyes filled with strong reluctance.
Su Chen understood that look.
It was the desire to beg heaven for another five hundred years!
But soon, the old man's expression turned desolate.
"Grandpa, you won't have anything happen to you..." Tang Yi's eyes reddened even more.
"Hehe, Xiao Yi, grandpa is not a fool, those people's attitudes have already said it all," the old man said with a bitter smile and shake of his head.
In the past, a word from him could cause imdiate upheaval in Jiangdu City.
Until a few years ago, people frequently ca to visit him.
Almost every day soone would co knocking on his door to check on him.
But now?
Not a single person visits him in a month.
Perhaps no one even rembers him anymore.
Only those old antiques like himself still rember him.
And as ti passes, those old antiques, so departing and so falling ill, have hardly had the chance to gather anymore.
Today the old man also felt too stifled, which is why he ca out to get so air.
Who knew, he would encounter such an event.
There were so many onlookers at that ti, yet not one was willing to step forward to help.
Luckily, Su Chen appeared, otherwise, the female waitress would have had no choice but to kneel down and lick the shoes of that man from Dongyin.
"This is not only an insult to Chu Xingyao."
"It's an insult to the whole of Huaxia."
"Tang Yi isn't stupid."
"She obviously knew that the old man had guessed her condition."
"She truly hates those people."
"Why can't they keep their pretense until the end?"
"Wait until after the old man is gone to reveal their true colors."
"Just one year, and they can't even wait."
"If it wasn't for those peoples' deliberate alienation, the old man wouldn't have known that his life isn't long left..."
"Xiao Yi, if you really care about your grandfather, let drink with this young brother today. This way, even if I pass away, my blood will still be warm!" A powerful aura suddenly burst out from the old man.
An aura belonging to a dominant figure.
"Alright, then just one drink!" Tang Yi finally agreed.
However, Su Chen waved his hand to stop Tang Yi, and then stood and left.
A few minutes later, Su Chen reappeared.
Carrying a jar of wine in his arms.
With a bang, Su Chen placed the jar on the table and said, "Old sir, since you're so happy today, how could one drink be enough? At least five big bowls, do you dare or not!"
Hearing Su Chen's words, Tang Yi's face changed dramatically.
Strictly speaking, the old man shouldn't drink.
One drink was already pushing the limit.
Su Chen was actually asking the old man to drink five big bowls; wasn't that asking for the old man's life?
The old man, being a hot-blooded man, had already accepted life and death.
It was just reluctance holding him back.
Provoked by Su Chen, he suddenly shouted loudly, "Why wouldn't I dare!"
Tang Yi was about to speak to stop him, but the old man gestured her to stop.
"Xiao Yi, if you stop today, I will disown you as my granddaughter!" The aura of a king once again emanated from the old man.
Tang Yi knew that she couldn't persuade the old man now, her only option was to throw a pleading glance at Su Chen.
But Su Chen didn't even spare her a glance, eting the old man's gaze directly.
Tang Yi was getting angry.
How could this guy be so reckless?
She imdiately walked up to Su Chen and whispered, "Though my grandfather doesn't have much influence now, if sothing happens to him, you can't bear the consequences!"
Su Chen looked indifferently at the woman beside him and waved his hand forcefully, "If anything happens to the old man, I'll take responsibility!"
Tang Yi was even more infuriated.
You take responsibility? Can you handle it?
In Tang Yi's eyes, Su Chen was just a little clever.
He probably couldn't even handle the retaliation from the Dongyin people.
Eventually, she would have to step in to solve everything.
While Tang Yi had so appreciation for Su Chen, now she felt that he couldn't differentiate between what was important and what was trivial, simply causing trouble.
Su Chen directly smashed open the clay seal of the wine jar, filling up several large bowls in front of him with a gush.
A rich aroma of wine spread.
This was wine that he had specially asked the restaurant owner to take out from many years of storage.
Although it wasn't a famous wine, after years of aging, it had beco exquisitely fragrant.
If it were anyone else, the owner would definitely not be willing to take it out.
It was only because Su Chen had upheld Huaxia's pride today that the owner was willing to part with it.
And it was even for free.
If sold, this jar of wine would cost at least tens of thousands.
As Tang Yi still tried to stop him, Su Chen pushed her away and scolded impatiently, "n are drinking, woman, stand aside!"
